JOCKEY MUsGRAvE KILLED.
Meets Death in Bad Spill at
Havre de Grace.

Jockey Phil Musgrave had his life
snuffed out and Andy Schuttinger re-
ceived broken leg in an ugly acci-
dent. which occurred during the run
ming of the sixth race yesterday at
Havre de Grace. The spill happened
while the thoroughbreds were tearing
down the backstretch and was pre-
cipitated by Dolina, which was ridden
by Schuttinger.
The horse crossed it's legs and went
down while running well up in the big
field. Silk Bird, with Musgrave up;

!. Musgrave was struck in the head
by one of the flying hoofs and his
skull was fractured. He was carried
to the infield, where physicians work
ed upon him for forty-five minutes be-
fore he breathed his last.
Schuttinger was rolled upon by Do
lima and, besides receiving a broken
leg. was badly cut and bruised. Obert

ROD AND REEL

Two hundred went on the Asher
mems excursion to Chesapeake Beach
last Sunday. They were disappointed
at finding the water somewhat rough.
Many of them had fished in heavy
sea before. and We're willing to do
so again, but others contented them
selves fishing from the pier. where
spots and a few other fish were
caught Several of those who went out
on the bay caught few trout and
were satisfied.
Scores OF Washington sportsmen
were on the bay in the vicinity of
Annapolis on week end outings.

was smooth enough to make the sport
enjoyable.
There were plenty of trout and

Anglers realize that the season for
saltwater fishing is fast drawing to
a close.

only two or three cool spells to drive

Numerous large catches of big
mouth bass are being made in Hunt

Alexandria. Reports from Acauia

ton sportsmen, say ther is very lit
tie grass and correspondingly small
number of bass and pike.
Clear water in the upper Potomac
and Shenandoah rivers has been the
means of attracting many sportsmen
to both streams to fish for small
mouth bass. They have had splendid
luck. although not a great many big
fish have been caught.

The long looked for explosion never

must be given to the excellent man
ner in which he handled his rather
frugal pitching stock. / have seen
Gleason time and again call on some
second string pitcher. when man
ager who lacked courage would have
called upon one of his stars, rather
than face the criticism that was sure
to result in case his pitching selec-
ton ''flivvered."
Since it ts generally admitted that
pitching holds the balance in a short
series of games. much consideration
will undoubtedly be given the
strength of the two pitching stats. in
summing up the chances of the White
Sox or Reds to win the big series.
A mere glance at the two stats, and
the records made in the 1919 race,
would cause one to Immediately reach
the conclusion that in that depart
ment Moran had a decided advan-
tage over Gleason. and SO it may
conclusion.
Sox Stars Outnumbered.
In Eddie cicete and Lefty" Will
liams. the Cincinnati Reds will face
two great pitchers. In "Hod'' Eller.
Jimmy Ring. Dutch" Reuther, "Slim"
Sallee, the Sox will face a quartet of
high class pitchers, with Fisher and
Luque, two classy box men in reserve.
Moran may cross me up, but I feel
almost certain that Eller. Ring,
burden of the Cincinnati pitching
work. That means that no sched-
ule that could be, adopted for world
series could in any way interfere
with Moran's pitching plans. He has
quality and quantity. and nothing to
d-
point.
On the other hand Gleason's task
of selecting his pitchers may prove
most troublesome one. because
where Moran has four first string
stars. Gleason has only two. Barring
will be continuous one. with Sunday
ball permitted in both cities. A jump
that would make necessary an off
day would be a most acceptable one
to Gleason. but unless rain comes to
his aid. it looks as If he would be
hard pressed after he had used up
Cicotte and Williams. It would be al
most foolhardy to ask either Will
liams or Cicotte to come back in a
big series with only one days rest
so it would seem that much of
Gleason's chances to win depends in
other than Cicotte and Williams. and
the success attained by that in
dividual.
If Faber was right, Gleason
wouldn't have thing to worry
about. but Faber isn't right. SO why
discuss that flaw in the pitching
staff? Despite the fact that Faber
is not the Faber who proved. so trou-
blesome to the Giants. it wouldn't
be at all surprising If Gleason took
a chance on him to solve the pitch

Kerr May Solve Problem.

There is another angle to the pitch
ing problem that may prove of some
solace to Gleason. There is pre-
ponderance of left-handed hitters in
the Cincinnati lineup. That usually
means that a left-hander of ability
can make considerable trouble. 1t is
just possible that the diminutive
"Dicky" Kerr may prove to be such
an individual. Kerr has no battling
speed. but he has mighty nice curve
ball. an excellent change of pace and
a half-speed ball that is rather hard
to time Kerr is In his first year as
a big Lacquer, and to that extent
lacks experience, but he has proved
a most valuable man for Gleason,
first as a relief pitcher, when Glea-
son was conserving his limited sup
ply of twirlers. and later as a regu-
lar, when a pitcher who could step
in. take his turn and win consistently
was a most desired person.
1t is not improbable that Cfcotte
and Eller may oppose each other. If
such happens to be the case, those
present can look forward to a pitch
ing duel that will include all the
tricks of the trade. No pitcher in
the American League has perfected
the freak deliveries to finer de-
gree Of efficiency than Cicotte. For
the past three years his pitching
efforts have caused all kinds of ar
guments among the American League
players: At an age when most
come through with the very best
years of his career. American
League ball players can't understand
it, all the more SO because Cicotte
resorts almost entirely to a fast ball
for success. Tabulation has been
kept on Cicotte in a great many
games. and in one very important
contest in which he shut out the op-
position with a few hits. he threw
only five curve balls. All the rest
were fast balls. to use the words of
Eliminating the shine ball" what
ever 1t may be. Cicotte has a world
Of stuff. He has a corking curve. al
though he doesn't make much use Of
it. His change of pace is perfect.
In pinch he goes to the spit ball,
and he throws a most deceptive one.
He first won notoriety through the
knuckle ball. and he still uses it at
! times. However. in the world S
series one can look for Cicotte to de-
pend largely on his fast ball. and his
fast ball is beauty. Cincinnati bat
ters will be looking at some real
pitching when Cicotte faces them
If they beat him it will be well de-
served victory. Coupled with his
pitching ability is remarkable dis
position. Nothing worries Cicotte
He takes things as they come. He
applauds the good work Of his team
mates. and speaks words of en-
couragement when they boot one be-
hind him. No American League UNI
| pire can ever recall a single instance
where Cicotte took the slightest ex-
ception to ruling.

WAR IS STILL ON
 IN LOWDEN, IA.
Mayor Reported Chased Out of Town After Fight With Returned
 Soldier.

Cedar Rapids Ia., June 2.-The town of Lowden, Ia., is without mayor and six of her prominent Ger man citizens are reported to be in hid ing.
 Mayor Fred Hartwig is said to have been forced to resign and leave the city. At meeting last Tuesday night a pro-German was reported to have said that he hoped every American soldier in France would be drowned on his way home. The story reached the ears of several returned soldiers and one of them, Charles o. Struck, accosted the mayor about it. The mayor denied the conversation and is reported to have drawn revolver but did not shoot. The next day he went to the county seat at TiptOn, where he filed information against Struck and other returned soldiers. When Hart wig who is a large man, returned to Lowden, Struck, who is short and thin, accosted the mayor in the park.
 A fight followed and the mayors face was considerably altered. Other Germans attempted to go to the may or's rescue and Struck put them to flight, with the exception of one man who showed fight and attempted to draw a revolver. He was disarmed and fined $5.
