Shibe Park
DYKES GETS A HOMER

Connie Mack's early season team
handed their recently installed under
studies neat lacing, score 5 to 4,
in a special exhibition game at Shibe
Park yesterday. Confusion reigned as
to the proper way to designate the
sides. and until Bill Brandt volunteered
the names Of Mayhcwers and Septem-
Der Stars, those intelligent gentlemen
who perpetrate the results on the dear
old public were in more or less OF
nuandary. This happy inspiration set
tied matters and the game proceeded
unusual save at rare periods, it, how
ever, working up to climax that was
very satisfactory to the sparse gather
ing seated here and there in the yawn-
ing stands.
1t was this way: Until the ninth
inning "Jing'' johnson. who hurled
for the Mayfowers. served up an in
vincible brand of ball. Only four well
separated bingles had been secured on
him. and never had rally even been
hinted. But the final session spelled
trouble. Griffin sliced one out TO- left
for a starter, and ~hen Welsh drove
one deep down the other toul line for
three bases the first run was over.
Galloway walked, and then came the
youngsters supreme effort. an lndl-
vidual insertion by Dykes.

WH|TEMARSH FINE
TEST FORLES!LEY
Chestnut Hill Course Has Coli
Holes to Compare With
National Links
GEIST PLAY TO BE FAST

Valley stretches Of green meadows
and sandy dunes at Whitemarsh will
make a nippy test for the be- knickered
going in the Geist Cup golf at the enc
of the week.
He who wins this bout is sure Of a
place in the Keystone Lesley Cup team
provided he has shown enough class
in the previous fitting of the season.
This is almost certain to be the case,
for the entries will be limited to ten
stroke golfers. ......
Post entries will be accepted BY the
committee to get the best possible col e
lection of stars in the play. This Is
almost a defense of the cup, for the
slender Norman Maxwell has already
knocked two legs from under the gaudy
cun. ...' ~r
One more wallop and it's over the
fence.
The tourney is strictly invitation and
will be opened up Thursday with a
qualifying round of eighteen holes.
1t is the last shot Of prospective
Leslie Cup players before that bis
match over the National links, which
is supposed to be one of the best tests
of golf in the country. 1t Is a per
nicious setting of terrible dunes, gulp
ing traps, nawsty rough and anyway II
! is given the once over it Is guaranteed
to strike terror in the soul OF the wab
bly, golfer.
A Couple Comparable
Whitemarsh has a couple of hole,
that compare.
Take the eleventh, for instance, that
requires a hot ball all the way, with
the long stretch laid through a chan
mel of crater traps, tangled rough anG
only little fairway path to guide tht
pill to its last resting place beside the
flag.
Over in the meadow to the rear there
are more of the same. where a straight
ball is highly to be desired, not to say
necessary, for ultimate success in bat
tie with par figures.
Then there are flock Of creek car
ries and shots from the morass, heights
and pits, winds and dews.
The National is highly windy. like
most seashore courses, where a low
sizzler is the. money.
Pat Grant, Woody Platt. Ed Cleary,
Paul Tewkesbury and bunch of other
players who did so well in the state
title there last week, will play at White
marsh again this week. it is expected
and sterling stroking is bound to pre
dominate.

HERzOG MAKES RECORD
Goes Through Fortieth Game With.
out Making an Error on Batted Balls

out Making an Error on Batted Balls
Chicago, Sept. 2S.-What is believed
to be worlds record for consistent
fielding by second basemen was achieved
in Chicago when Charlie Herzog, OF the
Cubs, went through the final game of
the year there against Boston without
making an error. 1t was the forticth
game in witch he performed consecu-
lively without being charged with a
muscue, and it was the forty seventh
contest without an error in fielding bat
ted balls or in taking throws at second
base. The two errors with which he is
charged since joining Fred Mitchell s
forces were Chalked against him for
wild throws, one to the plate and one
to first base.
Herzog has not gone through his
forty games without making mistake
by not irving for every grounder that
is knocked in his territory. He does
not shirk or the hard ones. but plays
them as quickly as he does the easy
ones, and in setting what is believed
to be a worlds record he has made
many wonderful plays back on the
grass and back of second base. He
has also made some thrilling plays in
front of the bag and on slow groun =
ders. proving that his exhibition has
not been a fuke, but the result OF
natural speed and skill.

ARMY POOL FOR BOYS

Germantown Boys Club VIII Dc
Their stroke1n Sd Regiment Tank
The Germantown Boys Club swim
ming team and the Germantown Cricket
Clubs natatorial stars will train during
the winter months in the First Regi
ment swimming pool, at Broad and
Callowhill stretts. This announcement
was made today by Coach Jackson, who
also announced that the pool would be
open around October l. BY securing
the First Regiment pool Mr.. Jackson
will now be in position TO keep his
mermen and mermaids in training all
the year, for the pool at the German
town Boys Club was only open during
the summer months. and in consequence
this prevented him from keeping his
pupils hard at it ready for the spring
and summer meets.
The First Regiment pool is sixty feet
long and twenty feet wideA which is the
regulation size for championship meets.
Mr.. Jackson, who will have charge of
the pool, has been coaching at German
town Cricket Club for the last three
years and the last year at German
town Boys Club. Prior to coming to
this city ne coached Mercersburg Acad-
emy swimmers and was also six years
coach at one of the Atlantic City pools.
1t is likely that there will be an
auspicious opening of the First Regi-
ment swimming pool with big meet
scheduled. 1t will be recalled that
Johnny Stevens formerly had charge of
this pool Mr.. Stevens, who is coach :
ing the Girard College mermen, had the
honor of bringing out such we'll known
mermaids as Elizabeth Ryan, Florence
Mclaughlin, Eleanore Ubl and others.

Jones STARTLES
TENNIS WORLD
National Boy Champion Shows
Great Form in Matches
at Mannheim
MEETS WALLACE JOHNSON

Many eager tennis fans, all sgog in
minutive figure in the acres Of courts at
Queen Lane in the battle for Philadel.
phia tennis honors.
But way down there on one of the
lawn courts of the Germantown Cricket
Club there played in the opening round
little blue eyed "feller," who hardly
stands higher than the net, his tousled
blond hair hanging over his eyes, and
who smashes a ball SO hot it had to be
seen to be believed.
Arnold Jones, national boys tennis
champion, is his name. He's fourteen
years old, the same age at which the
other famous member of the Jones tribe,
BOBBY. busted into glory by going to the
national semiinals for the golf cham
pionship. Unfortunately for the story,
Arnold is no relation to Bobby, except
in skill. He is the bright son of j.
r. D. Jones, Providence (R. ~ star,
who has held the Providence tennis sit %
uation well under his thumb for these
many years.
Natural Player
Daddy Jones has been champion
/ there longer than most folks can re-
member, so the stumpy Arnold comes by
his shots naturally. In the opening
round yesterday, while the rain fell
heartily on all hands, the midget Jones
! knocked off his first match for the Phila :
! delphia title after one of the best bouts
of the. day, to total Of thirty nine
sames. He walloped 6. W. Caldwell, by
! no means backward player VIII it
! comes to brilliancy. BY his victor the
! Juvenile juggernaut adva-ces to the
honor of meeting Wallace Johnson, il
all goLs we'll, and in tbs inning the
exuberant throngs will get a slant at
! the wonderful little player.
Jones has only been playing tennis a
couple of years, batting the ball back
at his proud tutor, Daddy" Jones.
This season he was launched into the
gamut of competition for the first time
and he cleaned up in his class for
further orders.
Weak on Backhand
His only weakness is his back
hand says Bill Tilden, national final =
ist and local champ. Jones has a
wonderful forehand drive and the finest
of volleys."
The first few matches of the local
| title tilt will be more or less. cut and
dried, not to say tame, as the ex
perts are fairly scattered through the
long bracket. Wallace Johnson. ma =
tional semifinalist, will be sizzler in
somebody's alley before the play goes
much further. Meantime the doubles
start tomorrow, and it is hoped to get
down far enough to play the finals in
both the singles and doubles on Satur
day afternoon. The play was started
after business hours yesterday and there
were few defaults with large galleries.
