BAN B. JOHNSON JUMPS OUT
OF THIS HOT WAR CLIMATE

On again; of again: the Question? p
of the American League. under the
cover of the twilight gloom once more
stole his way into the heats and hor-
rors of this war zone of the National
Capital only to pass out as quickly
as he arrived because of many rea-
sons-first that Ban B. was not al
together satisfied on the way the
River Shannon" flowed.
Any of the wisedup ones that inter-
viewed Ban B. are camouflaging as this
mogul refused to talk over our ex-
ceIlent telephone system apologies to
Earl Goddling), and a trip was made
all the way to Fifteenth and H streets
in an effort to hold up this present
Ear of the baseball world.
Between taxi drivers and bell hops
Ban B. kicked himself out of this
war mist about 1880 last night with
out granting any press his destina-
ton how, where, or why upon being
present.
The inside tip received from exclu-
sive authorities pronounce that Ban
B. was in our midst because of train
ing camp and war activities, of course
for the benefit of the Red Cross. but
this factor is just as hard to believe
as it is that our troops are today in
Berlin. johnson was here for no other
purpose but the work or fight activity
that now proves a stumbling block
to organized baseball.
Ban B., IL it will be remembered,
was present early this week, and made
himself as much scarce as he was
today, without an interview. In no
way is it meant that Ban B. is skip

world, but it is a sure fact that this

New York, July 17.-Bill Southworth,

Pirates give him a big hand, and Bill
generally comes through with a hit.
In the second game of the series
against the Robins he appeared at

BOBBY WALLACE
DEAN OF ALL
Former Brownie Lacks Col.
or of Wagner or Lajoie,
But Outstayed Them All.

An old-time fan who had sort of
dropped his baseball for several years
was glancing over a box score the
other day and ran across the name
Wallace with the ST. Louis Cardinals.
Funny" he said, there used to be
a Wallace with the Cards back in the
nineties-Bobby walace-and a mighty
sweet infielder.''
It was the same Wallace. the dean
Of baseball players. a years old, Is
years in major league baseball. a sun
vival of the days Of Pat Tebeau, of
Ed Delehanty, Of Cy Young and the
rest of 'them.
Old Bob breaks into the game now
and then. His legs aren't what they
were once and he has lost part of his
old time batting eye. but he's a
mighty valuable asset to the Cards
just the same.
It's remarkable that Wallace. lack
ing the color Of Wagner, Lajoie and
Crawford. should have outstayed
them all in baseball.
wallace's career in baseball started
with a semi-professional team at
Clarion. Pa. g years ago. He was
then a pitcher. but the next year he
was picked up by the Cleveland club
in the National League.
This club was managed by Pat Te-
beau and included such players as Ed
Mexican. Cupid Childs, Cy Young.
Chief thinner and Jim McAleer.
When the Cleveland franchise was
sold to St Louis, Wallace, who had
been transferred from the box to the
infield, went along. Later Bobby
jumped to the st. Louis club of the
American League. where he remain
ed until a couple of years ago. when
he tried umpiring. then went back
to the Cards.

Victory in Record Game.

Chicago. July lin one of the
hardest fought and longest baseball
battles of many seasons. playing of
which went for u innings, the Cubs
today triumphed over Philadelphia by
a score of = to l. For II innings the
game was tied l and l, with Watson,
of the visitors and Tyler for the Cubs,
pitching phenomenal baseball. Only by
calling out his reserves for the final
smash did Manager Mitchell snatch
victory.
Chicago took the lead early with 4
tally in the first inning and held II
until the fourth inning when Phiia-
delphia tied the score on an error d.
Hollocher. the only error of the game,
coupled with two single base hits.
In the final inning Barber was sent

a wild delivery and hit Killifer. Nc
Cabe batted for Tyler and sent ou,
a hit along the third base line which
filled the bases. No outs. Flack sin

with the winning run.
Tyler for the Cubs pitched equally
as strong a game for the locals as
Watson did for the visitors, 13 hits
were made off his delivery, while the
Chicago men made 10 hits.
The contest was additionally remark
able in that both occupants of the
mound lasted throughout the ex-
tended sessions and because all of the
players except Catcher Jack Adams
Of Philadelphia went through the
game. Adams gave way to Burns in
the eighteenth after he had been hurt

RED SOX SHOWING
ALL TRAITS OF OLD

New York. July 1.-THE Boston Red
Sox, though changed greatly in per-
sonnel within the past year. are show
ing all the traits Of the Red Sox teams
which won the American League pen
nants in 1915 and 1916 and battIed the
White Sox for the title last year.
These Boston teams made a speciality
OF winning by one run and making
late rallies. also in taking low score
games. High-class pitching made
only two or three runs by Boston
enough to win. Since those days Ruth
has given up pitching. Shore has gone
into the navy and Leonard has quit
the team, but high-class pitching still
prevails. Furthermore. the Sox are
winning one-rm games by late tallies.
1t is a dangerous club and is sure to
be in the thick OF the pennant chase
