RALPH De PALMA Is
WINNER OF Big RACE
Barney Oldfeld Is Dethroned in
Series of Auto Heats in
Packard Car.

Sheepshead Bay. n. Y, Aug. H.
Ralph DePalma to-day dethroned
Barney oidfeid as auto speed king.
In a series of three races at 30. 20
and 80 miles in which DePalma, Old
field and Louis Chevrolet met for
the title DePalma in his Packard
racer showed the way to his advers-
aries. Oldfield finished last in the
first two events and second in the
30 mile affair.
DePalma negotiated the 30 miles In
IS minutes.3 3 As seconds; the 20 miles
in 10 minutes So as seconds and the
80 miles in q minutes 30 Is seconds.
Oldfield's Golden Sunbeam car
proved to be a sort of a ''fivver." Z"
The dethrond speed king discarded
it in the last race and raced the 80
miles affair in Delage-car.
Soon after the start of the 20 mile
race 1t was apparent that Oldfeld
was not in the hunt. DePalma and
Chevrolet quickly outdistanced him.
Chevrolet led for the first two miles
and then DePalma went into the
lead. 1t was a nip and tuck affair
to the finish between these two and
DePalma in a final sprint won the
race by a few yards. Chevrolet Just
failed to get up. The race was run
at an average speed of los miles an
hour.
In the 20 mile race DePalma led
almost throughout closely followed by
Chevrolet. The race was practically
a repetition OF the 30 miles contest
and DePalma again won by yards
Carbureter trouble was said to be the
cause of Oldfield's poor performance
In both these races. The 20 mile affair
was at an average speed of ITO l.
miles an hour.
In the final event at so miles De-
Palma took his racer out in front al
the start, shot in the lead and gradu'
ally drew away. At the end of II
miles Chevrolets car blew a tire
which caused him to lose ground. De
Palma increased his lead. Chevrolet
then blew another tire and he was
practically out of the race. Oldheld
jumped into second place, but De.
Palma beat him more than a lap al
the finish.

VICE CAPTAINS ARE
WINNERS OF BATTLE
Defeat the Captains in Interesting
Cricket Match.

On the cricket field. just south
of the Bureau of Engraving and
Printing. in Potomac Park. the
"not-called-on' Lunch of advocates
of the British pastime held many
merry moments yesterday after
noon, indrlging in a club match
that afforded splendid pleasure to
the onlookers.
The summary below shows just
how strenuously these boys play.
They would never be satisfied with
a 1-to-0 score, but will insist on
the summary being II to IS, as be-
low. Well 1t is different game
from baseball, but a good one at
that. and 1t will be worth any
body's time to toddle down to the
cricket field today. about o'clock.
and see how the agile athletes
handle the fiat bat and the red ball.

DETROIT FANS ARE
PULLING FOR WALTER
Joe Judge Will Receive $500 Bonus
for Hitting .285.

Detroit, Mich! 3Aug. 1s.-veach came
near having two triples instead of
one. He hit a tremendous wallop to
center in the fourth, but Milan was
able to get under 1t.
The fans were pulling for Johnson
all throught the game and some Oh
them even panned the umpire for al
legged missing of strikes on Walter.
Every time the big fellow came to
bat. he got a fine hand"
The loss Of Judge is going to upset
Griffith's plans of making drive for
the first division. Joe has been play
ing fine ball and hitting well.
Judge will receive a $500 bonus
promised him II he batted .2S5 or
better. His figure is slightly over
that, or .2s6 in three places of
decimals.
This makes eight straight victories
for johnson. He is likely to have an
impressive looking record at the end
of the season in spite of the haru
luck that pursued him at the start.
johnson struck out six men, getting
Harper twice and Cunningham twice.
Ty will be back in the game in a day
or two. His legs are In tough shape
and he needs the rest badly.
Attendance, 7,5S. 1t was rather a
small turnout for Johnson's last local
appearance of the season. Ray Nor
gan has now hit safely in eleven
straight games. Johnson famed Har-
per on three pitched balls in the first
inning. George looked over the last
one, which was right in the groove.
Morgan was the victim of a peculiar
play at the start OF the fourth. He
bounded hot one on Wits shins. but
Bush recovered the ball in time to
throw him out.
johnson stood three and nothing
with Heilman in the fourth and then
put five balls over the plate. Harry
took two. fouled two and grounded
TO johnson on the next one.
Nick Altrock kept the fans in good
humor by-a lot of crazy antics on the
coaching lines. His limitations of Witt
were side-splitting.
Charity, who went to Judges posi-
ton after Joe was hurt, did not show
much style at bat, fouling once and
striking out the second time up.

If Pitching Is to Win, This

Another mighty interesting study OF
the comparison OF games in which
the two big rival teams have been

US observe:

against Chicago; won. to O.
No-hit-May 5. by Koob. OF Browns.

the game in which official scorer gave
one hit to SoX and later changed u
to an error.

Critics generally are picking the
White or Red Sox to win the American
League pennant- Some favor the Bos-
tonians because of their pitching stan I;
scme the White Sox because of their
defensive work.
A word of the pitchers Let's OBJ
serve the few-hit games pitched thus
far in 1917 by members OF the two
squads:
WHITE SoX.
No-hit-April IA. by Cicotte, against

ED CICOTTE HAS
JUST FOUND HIMSELF

New York. Aug. 1s.-Thirty-three
years old and just beginning to
have his most remarkable success
as a pitcher-that's the record of
Eddie Cicotte.
Credited this year with the most
successful use of the shine ball."
he also is given credit for having
some control over a knuekle ball
and is more than the average per-
former with the splitter.
Cicotte, a veteran who, according
to usual records, should be getting
out of the way, heaved himself in
to the records for keeps when he
hurled a no-hit, no-run game this
year.
When Jack Coombs was getting
his first experience as a major
Lacquer Cicotte had been taken on
by Detroit, found wanting and sent
back. He graduated from the same
club that turned loose Ty Cobb, and
they both went to Detroit the
same year.
Since the beginning of the 1908
season Cicotte has been twirling
them over in the American League
first as a member of the Red Sox
and then as a member of the White
Sox.'
C1cotIe missed participation In
the 1912 worlds series by a hair,
for he was transferred to the Chi
cago club in that year. after he had
been turned down and spurned by
Jake Stahl as no good.
Cicotte has been going along in
an even way. winning a game here
and losing one there. His most
successful season was while he was
with Lincoln in the Western
League. in 1907. He won twenty
three and lost ten games.
II the White Sox finally do club
their way into the American
League pennant it will be largely
the fault of this veteran HEAVIER.
His work is the most consistent
and the really brilliant among all
the curvers OF the great baseball
club.

animation proved that the fracture had
occurred.

the Tigers, both at bat and on the
