P|RATESP PROVE SURPRISE
Consigned to National League Gel
lar at Start, But Are Upsetting
the Dope.

The remarkable rise of the Pitts
burgh team in the National League is
one of the surprises of the National
League season. considering that this
experimental team. under an expert
mental manager. was universally con-
signed to last place before the season
opened; whereas 1t is now lowering
between third and fourth place. and
shares with Chicago the distinction of
holding up the prestige of the western
section of the National League-and
this, too. in spite of the fact that no
team was more riddled by draft and
desertions.
The team ranks fourth in team
fielding and fifth in team batting. and
therefore the solution of its remark
able suceess over stronger teams
must be sought in some special system
of play and in the team management.
This is where the new manager. Hugo
Bezdek, shines, as he has developed
the team to expertness in two i'm
portant matters-namely. scientific
base running and expert bunting. with
an occasional use of the squeeze play.
With a mediocre pitching stan and
an ordinary batting team. Manager
Bezdek is employing the base running
and bunting tactics, and in these two
has developed the most ex-
pert team in the National League.

NOTES OF GOLF AND GOLFERS.

Definite steps looking toward the
establishment Of golf as a recreation
for soldiers in the training camps of
the country will soon be taken BY
the War Department and the United
States Golf Association. Following a
plan suggested by DR.. Walter s. Har-
ban of the Columbia Country Club
during talk with DR.. Kepple. third
assistant secretary of war. two
that soldiers be given a few clubs and
some of the vacant land near the
camps not utilized for military needs
be turned into miniature golf courses,
the U. S. G. A. has taken up the mat
ter and promises to help the War De-
partment in spreading the game in
every possible way. Base ball is still
probably the most popular outdoor
sport for the soldiers. but there Is no
reason why golf should not be equai,
ly as popular. 1t calls into play all
the muscular activity OF tne soioler
and necessitates besides all the oraln
power and eye power needed in other
games.
With the hot weather of the past
week drying up the courses ana puin IN.

tualiy been at a standstiil. A few
