 The injury to Dave Bancroft, the Phillies splendid shortstop. who, sprained his left ankle sliding into second during a recent game with the Giants at the Polo Grounds, was most unfortunate, for Bancroft is one of the bulwarks of the club. The accid- ent recalls the fact that Bancroft was hurt in 1916 when the Phillies were crowding the Robins for first place toward the close of the pen nant race, and the loss of the flag by the Quaker City club was claimed by Philadelphia fans to be directly due to Bancroft's absence from the lineup at critical stage of the strug- gle. This was a logical contention, as Bancroft undoubtedly was the player whose addition to the Phillies in the spring of 1915 made them a championship ball club.

The order is limited to men of English origin. either of birth. or of percentage birth. The Pioneer lodge has named June for the night of the great event while it is expected that the Magma Cf1arta will follow the fol- lowing week. Each lodge is planning to initiate 25 new candidates.

and his average is climbing daily.

Whatever criticisms may be launch at the pitching staff and the infield of the Philadelphia club. it must be said for Jack Coombs that he has a collection of very capable outfielders The star of the guardians of the out CT defense is, of course, George Whit ted who is unquestionably one of the best individual players in the Nation al League. Cy Williams, long and rangy, is playing a wonderful game in center field and is hitting the ball in a timely and consistent manner, and Emil MeuSel in the left field, is covering a great deal of territory and his hitting Is up to the mark. Leo Callahan, once with. the Robins. can't hit left handlers, but when he is out of the lineup, Gavvy Cravath is in right field. and the famous old sluEger is at present leading the lea gue with the stick and playing a remarkably fine brand of ball on the defense.
 Duffy Lewis was the second Yam kee player to get a home run this season. Sam Wick was the first.
 Zimmerman was the first Giant to be banished by the umpire. Some day some players will learn that there is no use in arguing with the ump.
 Hal Chase has not yet begun to hit tlie ball in his accustomed style. but his fielding is as brilliant as ever.
 Pete Kilduff. former Giant who has been making a strong bid for the job as regular third basemean on the Chicago club, is at present on the shelf with a lame arm. but it is cer- tain that as soon as he is fit to play again Fred Mitchell will assign him to the far corner permanently. Kill duff's rival for the job is Charley Deal, who is beginning to slow up. Kilduff is a. good ball player now and will be better one in the future. for he is pfucky younsster with good pair of hands and a clear head and h can hit the ball hard. He spent the greater part of last season in the navy. but was discharged early this spring. John McGraw rated Kilduff highly but traded him to the Cubs in 1917 for Al Demaree at a time when it was absolutely = necessary for the Giants to get a right handed pitcher who could win some games or risk losing the pennant.

The departure Of Mrs. C. O. Brain bridge from Glendale is being greatly regretted by club women of that place who have produced splendid results under the leadership of their clever and popular chairman. As president Of the Glendale Womans club, Mrs Brainbridge has had a difficult posi- ton to fill. but her oleverness and tact won her an eRviable place in club dom.
 It was believed that Mrs. J. B. Hill, the vice president would accept the chairmanship, but at the special meet ing called on Friday afternoon Mrs. Hill not only refused to serve but resigned as vice president. The resignation came as a decided surprise to the club for Mrs. Hill has shared popularity with Mrs. Bainbrid9e. Another blow feh when the program committee resigned in a body Mrs. J. NJ. Pierson, Mrs. Ben jamin Yaeger and Mrs. J. w. De Fever declaring they would not serve this sea- son. No reason for the resignations were offered although it is understood that shortly before the close of the club year it was rumored that factions ex- isted and 1t was only through the ef- forts of the president that the club held together. An executive board meeting has been called for early in the week when it is understood the vacancies will he filled and the club policy clearly out lined.

The club will not devote it's entire time to this department, but will give consid- eFation to topics of the day-the cur rent events section being under the direct supervision of the president. Mrs. Baswitz has prepared a series of papers to be read before the club each program week which will alternate with the weekly social sessions Among the topics on which she has written are: ",rhe Progress of Civili- zation," King Cotton Enlarges His Domain Our Leather Supply and the War" "The Making of Artificial Leather" and ''The Vogue of Ivory"
 The social features will not only in- clude bridge afternoons for the mem hers and their guests, but there will he. a number of public affairs-bene- fits-that will be given for the aid of some pet charity.
