lins flied to Burns; Joe Jackson raped
right ~ Herzog
Schupp's curve was a thing Of beauty.
At was SO good It fooled Rigler half
u dozen times. IL had the Chicago
bstters hypnotized. In the pinch Fer
die had complete mastery of this, his
chief stock In trade. Repeatedly, he
was in the hole to batters. On fully
a dozen occasions Chicago batters had
him in the hole with two called balls
and no strikes. In more than half o.
these times Ferdie broke three straight
strikes across the corner of the pan
that fooled the visitors so badly they
never took their bats of their shoul-
ders.
Barring the four innings mentioned
In which Chicago's first batter hit
safely, the Sox didn't have much Of a
look in. McMullen scratched hit
20 Zimmerman In the first, but one wa,
out and Eddie Collins famed while
Jackson rolled TO Herzog. The Sox
went out In order in the second. Flet-
cher made a wonderful stop of slow
bounder from Felsch's bat that killed
a base hit. Schupp famed Weaver on
a curve that broke down almost into
the dirt.
The moral blow to the SoI OF Eddie
Collins's base-running miscue was most
forcibly illustrated in the NTH inning.
Rowland discarded his safety first pol
ICY and called upon Buck Weaver, fine
bunter, for the hit-and-run play. Gan
dill had Just opened the fifth with q
single. Weaver hit sharply to HerSog
and into a double play. A moment later
Schalk singled 70 centre, but the weak
hitting FGber grounded to the box.
Schupp Gives One Pass
After he pitched two balls to Felsch
in the seventh Schupp struck out the
Sos slugger with three consecutive
curves, at none of which Hap offered
Burns made a fine catch Of Schalk's
line drive in the eighth on hard
chance that promised Ray his third
consecutive hit. Reisberg batted for
Faber. He took three straight balls,
then two strikes, and was forced TO hit
hying out 10 Robertson. J. Collins
singled to left, but McMullin popped to
Herzog. Eddie Collins wormed the
only pass Of the game out of Schupp
starting the ninth. Zimmerman made
n great play Of Jackson's slow roller,
killing base hit. This put Collins
on second. Eddie stole third without
a throw. Felsch fouled to Zim and
Gandl waited to Kauff.
The Giants in the first three innings
failed to make any impression upon
Faber Felsch went away out for
Burns's line drive. while +. Collins and
McMullin made fine stops and throws
on Herzog and Ksuf. respectively.

easy chance by hitting the first offer

KauH Wins Liberty Bond
1t was here that Kauf won his first
Liberty bond. He missed one Moriarty,
spinning like a top. Kauff watched a
ball drift past. Then. with his spikes
set, he lunged at Fsber's cross-fre,
meeting the ball fairly. A line drive
shot out toward Felsch Hap turned
his back, sprinted back without once
turning to look. threw up his hands in
the hope of intercepting the ball and
then chased on TO the flower bush be-
hind the bobbing leather. Little Ben
ny the goat Of the series. had broken
into scare-head type at last. For FIVE
minutes pandemonium reigned. Hats
were smashed. So were few eyes
worn b. Chicago rooters.
This home run blow Of KauF, fol-
lowing Collins's blunder OF the first
half, left Faber completely habber-
gasted in the fifth. Here Schupp sewed
it up with n pinch hit after Faber had
almost worked out Of the tightest pinch
of the series.
Fletcher damned the first pitch for a
single TO right. Davey Robertson laid
perfect bunt down the third base
foul line. Holke bunted almost TO the
same spot. Faber felded the ball in

and perfect throw to Gandil from an

Boxing News and Notes
-By FRED HAWTHORNE.

"Of again, on again. Dunn Ggain"
Last night we received one OF those
gracile specimens of English word
painting from John Tea Dunn, boniface
Of the Broadway Sporting Club Of
Brooklyn, in which letter Honest John
wrote that the scheduled bout between
Billy Miske, the st. Paul light-heavy,
and Battling Levinsky set for to-
night, had been postponed until Tues
day. November 13.
Reasons? A flock Of 'em. But one
will suffice Levnsky was unable to
secure a furlough from the army au-
thorities and had 20 stay on his Job as
boxing instructor at Camp Aver. Mass.
And so, the curtains will be down to-
night over the loaded glass windows Of
the Broadway Club, and will not be
pulled up again until tomorrow night,
when Joe yelling and Shamus .O'Brien
play "you hit me and III hit you" in
the main bout.
Al Mccoy may be a "lemon" as
middleweight champion, but nobody has
yet been able TO squeeze his title
out of him. Harry Greb, of Pittsburgh.

Gen. Maurice Says Germans Badly

Fast-ItalianS Gain
Success.

London, May 24-The Italian Of
fensive has entered into it's second
stage with new and important gains
between Gorilla and the sea, said
Major General F. B. Maurice no The
Associated Press today. The first
day of the new drive has resulted in
the capture of more than 5000 pris-
oners.
General Maurice said all the objec-
tives of the Italians had been gained.
The entire Italian effort of the last 10
days was praised by General Maurice,
who is chief director of military op,
era;ions at the British War Office
yet the Italian offensive he
said, was only made possible by the
thorough offensive work of the Anglo
French forces during the past few
weeks. If we had not been keeping
the Germans busy, the Italians would
not only have found an offensive i'm
possible, but would have been faced
Praises Work of French.
General Maurice praised the work of
the French during the past week,
which he said was far more important
than the map indicated. THE Brit
ish have Eeen for the past week" he
said, .in the midst of one of those
lulls which are necessary in the de-
velopment of long-continued modern
battles, The present lull is exactly
like the lulls during the battle of the
Somme. The enemy's communicates
during the past week are interesting
as indicating the loss of the morale
and the jumpiness of his troops, who
repeatedly report the British attacks
in spots where we never made the
slightest offensive move beyond the
usual artillery work.
