RED SOX INTEND
TO MAKE REPAIRS
FOR 1918 CAMPAIGN

The Red Sox fought gamely and
died hard. No doubt they, as twice
champions, found it difficult this year
to arouse thepselves and battle, but
even so. they won more games up to
mid-season than did Carrigan's sue
cessfuI cam a year ago, writes Bob
Dunbar in the Boston Journal. For
1918 the club needs repairing rather
than any general scheme of rebuilding.
unless, indeed, the war should take
a heavier toll of the now ex-cham-
pions han seem probable. 1t is the
general belief, somehow, that neither
military nor naval requirements will
interfere to any great extent with
baseball another year. although it is
recognized that the way to make this
feeling a reality is to act now on
the assumption that the war may last
for a year or SO yet.
TT is very refreshing to find that
neither President F'razee, Manager
Barry, Heinie Wagner nor. anybody
else officially connected with the Red
Sox is in the least inclined to alibi
Chicago success or to belittle it in any
way. Surely, we all prefer to believe
that Charlie Coniskey's ball club has
deserved it's triumph.
L Baston has had its share of Worlds
Series. surely. and 1t is good thing
for baseball that the West is to have
a big championship at last. They
have had to wait for it, all right. But
we warn Chicago, yes. ind the Tigers
too, that in 1913 it will be Boston's
turn again If hard work and conscien.
tious preparation can bring it about

Co1onials to a to 1 victory over the
Stars in the closing game of the
season on the Lighthouse grounds
yesterday afternoon. Johnson mount
ed the slab complaining of a sore arm
but the crippled wing proved just
strong enough to make his opponents
appear foolish. Two hits, one a
scratch, was tine extent of the ALI
Stars batting activities while Ii men
died via the strike-out route. The
game lasted but one hour and was de-
void Of any special feature except for
the pitching Of both johnson and
Woodward. Woodward yielded seven
hits and famed nine.
Battery errors accounted for the
An-Stars' defeat. OF the quartet of
runs pushed over by the Co1onials,
only one was earned. An error by
Bowden,l followed by a passed bali by
Fiaherty and a wild heave by Wood
ward, gave the Colonials run in the
second In the eighth three, singles
and sacrifice, coupled with errors
by woodward and F1aherty enabled
the Colonials to tally three times,
which was sufficient to win the con-
test. ssi IS
