ANDERSON MAKES
 GOOD FOR GIANTS
 AFTER BAD START

Former Federal Leaguers who have come through and made good in the major leagues are limited in number we speak of those who actually were kdeveloped by Federal managers Among the most notable of the re- stricted list is Fred Anderson, the pitcher who was one of the trio that John McGEaw tok when peace was made by cash purchase from Harry ] Sinclair. Anderscn can be classed as a. real FederaE al dSselcpment.
 Boston Red Sox, but had been sent back and was in Class B company when he jumped. He made q good
 record with the Feds and under Mc- ! Graw's tute1age is making an even better one in the National League. He
 ranks next to Ferd Schupp in low per- lcentage of runs allowed and his work improves as the season progresses. He halls from North Carolina, and made ] his professional start. in the old Cari- lima Association in 1908.
 Thence he went to Worcester and !. did so well that the Red Sox got him, but he quit the game and practised dentistry for two years Coming back 1 to the Red Sox in 1912, he failed to make good and was sent to Brockton. i then in the New England League, and i it was from there he jumped to the
 Feds in 1914. He is 30 years of age and is one of the few players who have attained their best form after reaching such an age,

LEONARD FLIRTING
 WITH DANGER IN
 MEETING KILL BANE

New York, June 36-Whife Leon ard is getting well paid for his six round bout with Kilbane, it is he who is taking all the chances. 11e is the lightweight champion, and if he's knocked cut, Ki1bane gets his title, because the weight will be 133 pounds i've hours before the fight But if Benny happens te slam Johnny into uneensciousness all he gets is whatever credit will come, and the meHey. He cannot take Kilbane,s title.
 It will be the seeaad meeting be- tween these premier batt1ers. A couple of years age when Benny was just coming, and was mere OF less. green, he took Johnny along in ten rounds. Some say Johnny won and others declared for Benny But that's all passed and gene, and it's the next battle which will deternaiRe the bet ter man.
 The natural advantages are Leon ards. There isn't any doubt but that he is as good a boxer as Kilbane. He's at least as good a puncher and then he has the advantage of eight or ten pounds in weight. That counts for something with men around those fellows weights If both train well it will be a battle worthy of the trip to Philly and the promoters who got the bout will sure ly be we'll repaid for their efforts.

CALDWELL OF
 TANKS BREAKS
 TRAINING RULES

Boston, June 30-Ray Caldwell,, star of the Yankee pitching staff has again fallen from grace. Manager Bill Donovan announced last night that he had suspended Caldwell for 10 days and fined him $100 for breaking train- ing rules. Urban Shocker, the young spitba11 pitcher, also was fined s59i for breaking the rules. .s.
 The charge against Caldwell is that he failed to show up at the hotel Thursday night or at the ball park yesterday. He pitched and lost one of the games of the double-header with which the Yankees opened this series Thursday
 Last season Caldwell was fined $100 and suspended for 10 days. He failed to report at the end of the period and was suspended for the balance of the season. Nothing more was heard of him until he walked into the training camp at Macon last spring, after he had come from Panama, where he played bali during the winter.

DART MOUTH TO PLAY FOOTBALL
 COMING SEASON

New York, June 30.-Dartmouth has come out dat-footedly in favor of the resumption of athletic sports this fall, without waiting for the proposed gen. eral meeting of the National Collegiate Athletic association at Washington in August, to formulate a. plan.
 The Athletic Council of the college has decided to go ahead with football, track and cross-country, and mid-win- ter sports, aI1d will carry out, so far as possible, its football Schedule,' in spite of the weakness of the eleven by the absence of the upper classmen, who are serving their. country in vari- ous branches of it's military and naval activities. No coach has yet been se- cured to succeed. Frank Cavanaugh, who resigned last fall, and graduate coaches may be solely depended on.
 In order to make the sport attrac- tive, the council has temporarily sus- pended the one-year residence r1le and all other restrictive regulations so as to pernnit incoming freshmen and men who have already played the limit, to participate. in these events and will urge other New England col leges with whcn they have competi- t1ons to do the same and so meet on a common ground during the continu- ance of the war.
 This action is similar to the position taken by Brown, Williams, Pennsyl- vanda, Pittsburgh, and many of the Western colleges, on the theory that sports for sports sake will make the innovation worth while to the students who find that all work and no play does, indeed, make Jack dull boy.

WEINERT DENIES
 HE FOULED FRED
 FULTON IN BATTLE

New York, June 30-Char1ey Vein ert is all ''het up'' over the referees decision in his bout with Fred Fulton at Buffalo last Tuesday night. It will be recalled that the referee disQuaH- fled Weinert for fou1ing. Weinert con- tends that he did not foul Fulton, but that his body blows made Fulton quit. Appended is what Weinert's manager has to say about it: -s+'g5
 tsCharley Weinert will agree to stop Fred Fulton .or make him quit, inside of 10 rounds, or give his entire share of the receipts to the Rcd Cross. Full ton quit. and quit cold in Buffalo last Tuesday night. The spectators stood up in g body and missed and booed him out of the ring when he tried to make speech after the referee stop ped the bout. Fulton absolutely cannot stand body punishment. dozen persons in Buffalo told me that Palzer, F-ulton's sparring partner, had him dizzy in the gymnasium every day in to fight his body, and that's the way he beat him, and not by fouling him.
 Fulton began to quat the first good punch he got in the stomach. Weinert fighting like a wild cat kept sending punch, after punch to Fulton's body. Fulton, seeing he was gone delfber- ately knocked Weinert's blows down sso they would appear foul. and kept crying and begging to the referee to stop the contest. He finally sain- ed his point. Fulton then ran all around the ring telling every one who would listen to him that he had been fou1ed."

YANKEES DROP lST OVERTIME
 CAME OF YEAR

Boston June 30-Wild Bill Dono- the sudden slump of the Yankees re- sorted yesterday to one of the time tried reAnedies for a ball club in a slump. He gave his batting order the double shuttle, show well before Iusing, and came up with an entirely new arrangement. His effort, how ever, failed to cure the just now ailing Yankees for they lost their third straight to the Champion Red Sox.
 The score was-2 to~1. and the game went to 10 innings.
 Donovan rearranged his entire bat ting order. He placed Maisel at the ;head of the list, with Peckinpaugh land Hendryx following, and brought iBaker up next to Pipp. This move Twas designed to bring the hitters of ithe club together with fast man on yahead of them. Elmer Miller was fbenched. and Paddy Baumann went to left field in his place. In addition to taIl this. Al. Walters returned to his splaoe behind the plate.
 With the new arrangement the
 Yankees got Il hits as against, seven flor Boston. but despite this the Yankees scored only one run. Their trouble was their failure to hit with imen on the bases. They lost five ichances to score when single run iwou1d have won the game for them in thine innings.
 < Up to yesterday the. Yankees. gen. iera1ly regarded as one of the gamest iclubs in the history of baseball, had lnot lost an extra-inning game since lthe season got off to a start in April. They had won total of six extra iinning contests two from Chicago, two from Washington and one each from lPhiladelphia and Detroit. In addi- .tion to these the Yankees played an ,11-inning draw with Philadelphia.
 This was the first defeat of the sea- sson of George Mogridge by the Red ISox 1He had set them down twice, once with a no-hit game.
 Il Along with the lack of timely hit ting the Yankees made two costly err trors, one of which allowed the tieing run to score and the other the winning run.
 On the other hand, George Foster was hit hard and was wavering throughout the game. | Both of Boston's runs were scored on errors Pipp made bad toss and tie up the game, and Walters dropped a throw at the plate which let lin the winning run in the tenth. This ifs an unusual ,errofA for Walters, who had done much to help the Tanks cause during the game by making fthree hits V.
