THE BROWN DERBY
Pulls Classic Boner in Losing
CoIorfuI Game for John
son to Tigers.
BY DENMAN THOMPSON.

!. II the second clash of the set be-
srtween Griffs and Tigers Is anything
like that of yesterday. in which Wal
eat at the hands of Bernie Boland,
ans who like their base ball tense
will make no mistake in journeying
American League Park this after
! noon. It was quite battle from
more than one angle.
For one thing, it marked the first
appearance locally of Umpire Chill
. since he was recalled from the minors
by Ban Johnson, the league executive
who recently developed into a strict
! 1isciplinarian and who sees visions of
! njunctions in his sleep these nights.
The arbiter incurred the displeasure
! Of Messrs. Cobb and Ainsmith, the
latter course being about as harmless
as playing foot ball with a chunk Of
, TINT.
! Cobb made a protracted address
that extended over several innings
after being called out on strikes in
the opener. No stenographic report
of his remarks was obtainable, but his
Grafton was punctuated with express
! i've adjectives such as yellow" and
bum
. Ainsmith Wants to Act.
j Ainsmith's observations were not
audible. He spilled a lot of words
when Chill refused to allow him to
: take first after a pitched ball had
! graZed the back of his shirt in the
ninth, but seemed more anxious to
act than talk. At the combined So
Ieitation of three Tigers, including
Boss Jennings. the former Griffman
was persuaded to turn his attention
from fighting to batting.
Ihere were other high spots. Johnson
Tanned Cobb twice and held him hit
less. Menosky put on a return ex-
hibition of his speciality, Lost in
the Sum-" whereby a pop fly became
single for Young, and he threw a
man out at the plate. Then, let's
see-M1lan came back into the line
up. Janyrin got a hit and Picinich
went into trance.
The latter's contribution really was
the headliner and deserved first

seventh place town it will not re-
eeive the attention it deserves, but

lore of base ball. 1t consisted of
nonchalantly ignoring a passed ball
that rolled behind him. 1t happened
