and it should again today. Reuther's
great batting certainly added to the
Reds attack. His left handed pitch
ing checked Eddie Collins and Joe
Jackson, the most dangerous of the
Sox. The same percentage POSSIBLE
ties will be there today, except
Reuther's batting strength.
The break in the first game came in
the fourth inning. Kopf had scored
a run. There were tvs out and Neale
and Wingo were on the bases.
The crisis came for Cicotte when
Reuther stepped up TO bat. If Reu-
Their had been retired the game might
have gone on a mighty close affair.
But Reuther hit a fine triple, two
more runs were scored, and Eddie's
game was gone.
The first game showed that the
Reds are a powerful club on the at
tack. They also showed an almost
perfect defense. Kopf made their
only error, when after fine stop, he
gamely tried to get his man at first.
Errors are usually made that way
not on safety first plays. The Sox
are generally said to be a money
club. But this so-called money play
ing in big series is an absolute joke

The History of Golf.

Golf was played before 1857, but it
was that year that parliamentary
notice was given that golf be utterly
cryit doune, and nocht sit. This law
apparently did not accomplish its OBJ
ject. A number of these laws against
the game seem to have failed and we
are told that in 1903 the king was
playing extensively. The king of Eng
land at that time was Henry VII, and
the king of Scotland was James ". L
think it must have been Scottish
Jamie rather than English Henry who
went in for extensive golf for he was
an Inflated Stuart and needed all the
consultations that golf can offer.
1852 is the date of the first mention
of golf at st. Andrews.
The Royal Blackheath Golf club,
the oldest in the world, was founded
in 1908. 1 saw the course when I was
in England; it is flat and rather mo-
notonous and must have been easy to
care for all these years
Scotland soon got busy and in 1875,

in 1S48 the gutta ball came in. Soon
we begin to see the names OF the IA

Allen Robertson, the two Dunns, Tom
Morris, Sr., and Jr., Willie Park, Bob
Ferguson and others. I remember
visiting the old cemetery at st. An

in golfing language, of these old
heroes. Stories of their wonderful

land.
In 1850 the first British open cham
pionship was played and Willie Park
Sr., won it. In 1863 King Edward VII,
then Prince of Wales, was elected
Captain of the Royal and Ancient
club a great honor for the king!
In 1866 England and Scotland
joined hands in the formation of a
London Scottish Golf club.
Up to and including 1857 Tom Nor
ris, Sr, had won the open champion
ship four times, and in 1870 it is
noted that Tom Morris, Jr., had won
the open championship three times
in succession, and become the perma-
nent possessor of the championship
belt.

In 1874 the Quebc Golf club was

If there was anything in the game
that was better than Reuther's hurl-
ing, it was his work with the stick.
Two of his three hits were mighty
triples. He drove in two runs, scored
one himself, and was the instigator of
Nhe mad rOmping of Redlegs around
the bases in the fateful fourth. The
Sox were in the fight up to that time,
but when he propelled the ball into
No-Man's Land in left center and
raced around to third while two
scored ahead of him, the heart seemed
to go out of the American leaguers.
A Sad Day for Cicotte.
1t was a sad day for Eddie Cicotte,
leading pitcher of the junior league.
Never before was so decisive beating
administered to the Michigan wonder.
He simply was pounded off the
mound. Five runs were scored against
him in the fourth before Manager
Gleason gave him the sign to retire.
His team mates gathered around him
and patted him encouragingly on the
back, but he walked from the dia-
mond with his head hanging.
Roy Wilkinson succeeded Cicotte on
the mound, while the last inning was
pitched by Grover Lowdermilk, but it
made little difference to the National
League champions. They kept the air
fairly clogged with fugitive hits while
the Sox fielders chased terrific flies
owner of the Reds, who came painting
up the runway of the grandstand,
stopped long enough to remark to
friends:
Those dopesters that were figuring
Cincinnati second, didn't figure on our
batting pitchers. We've got two more
like Reuther; they've all been hitting
around 800 all season"
The Crowd Was SO,115.
The day was clear and hot and
30,115 enthusiasts witnessed the con-
test. Cincinnati always has been
known as thoro-going baseball town,
supporting the home team in good sea-
sons and bad, but nerves were on edge
today with the Importance of the
struggle in store. This was made evil
dent by the abrupt termination of the
waves of cheering until the inunda-
ton of runs in the fourth relaxed the
tension and the cheering became wild
and prolonged.
