BABE RUTH GETS BROWN DERBY AT
 GAME IN PHILA

Philadelphia, April 16-Yesterday,s game between the Yankees and the Athletics which went to the New Yorks by a score of 4 to 1, furnished a striking study in contrasts and the uncertainties of baseball Of course, much was expected of the great Babe Ruth, but mighty little was looked for from the bat of Gleich, who is supposed to be in the Yankee outfe1d, because Miller Huggins cannot get a better man just at this time
 We'll, Ruth the Great did nothing. Gleich the unsung came to the fore with a very timely single in the sev- enth inning with the bases filed and sent in two runs, the first which the Yankees had been able to get off Nay Tor. Ruth struck out three times, the last time with the bases filled
 This exhibition of ozone flaming by the home run record holder made the assenblage of about 7,seo fans quite hilarious. Ruth was the victim of a series of guffaBVS and never ceasing guying, and toward the end of the game he appeared to be on the verge of resenting it. But he failed to re- sent ii when he had his chance with the bags full, and he got some more loud @1hawhaws-" For some reason or other Ruth was presented with a brown derby before the game started This, no doubt, was the cause of his failure with the bat Or perhaps he still was unnerEed by his huff o4 Wednesday,
 For six innings the game was a pitchers battle between Jack Quinn for the Yankees, and Naylor- Quinn gave way to Shore In the seventh Naylor got his walking papers after the game had been lost. and the jot was finished by Kinney Pratt, with three s1ngless Pipp, with a double and a triple, and G4eich were the heroes on attack for the New Yorks.

LICK HIGHLANDS FORMER HARVARD
 ATHLETE, DEAD

New York, April 16,---Jack Ashley Highlands, in his undergraduate days at Harvard a crack pitcher and atll- lete in the early nineties, died sud- denay at the Harvard club. in this city yesterday from a disease of the heart He had been ill for about two weeks. He was 51 years old and a. bachelor.
 +'Jack,'' as he was widely known, was one of the most i1ustrious of that group of men who won glory in their college days as athletes Be sides being a star pitcher he repre- scented Harvard in other branches of sport and was most popular as stu dent and since being graduated in 1893 equally so as an alumnus-
 Harking back to the spring of '93 many Harvard men of that time and Yale men too wiM remember what in those days was an epoch making base ball game, in which Jack Highlands, pitching for Harvard defeated the fla nous Dutch Carter, pitching for Yale, in the third and deciding game of the series.

Veler ans Late Reporting
 To Walsh

Manager Walsh of the Bridgeport club hopes to be able to put a strong club in the field against the Rochester : club of the International League at Newf1eld park next Sunday but he wishes a few more veterans would re- port. So far the squad which is practfcing at Newfeld consists largely of youngsters.
 Bill Orr. a second baseman. came down from his home in New Haven yesterday, He played in the Inter national League last year and Man ager Walsh expects him to hold up his end ia the Eastern League, The catching jop will probably fall upon Dan Paske. a recruit catcher, in Sun < days game. Bill Skiff sent word yes terday that a death in his family will prevent him from reporting before next Tuesday, Emerich, who can play the outfeld or catch, is also late in reporting.
 Manager Walsh believes he has some capable recruits in his squad and he will give many of them Q chance against Rochester, He thinks the fans would like to see how the new corners look in action,

TONEY PITCHED WELL BUT LOST
 TO THE BRAVES

New York, April 1S-A1fhough he famed three in one inning Pitcher Toney of the Giants lost the game in the same inning yesterday The place was the Polo Grounds, seventh fTs- ming, and the team which beat him was the erstw1li1e despised. dejected and utterly miserable Boston Braves Score, 1 to O.
 Not only that. but Toney pitched brilliantly throughout the game He allowed only five hits in the nine i'm ninSs, and gave only one base on balls, which did no damage. But two of the quintet of safe drives the Braves made were samdwIeheG in be- tween his cluster of strd7eouts i'm the seventh, and right there the beans were spilled
 Walton Crufses the Braves right fielder. opened this seventh with a safe drive s@ center. He hung around first till Toney had effaeed 9oI6e On three strikes and had two strikes on BOecke1. Then he made a dash for second.
 Boeckel hit at the ball as Cruise dashed, missed. and of course was out but McCarty made a rather pooa t91sOw, off to the right Of the middle sack, and despite a noble effort by Fletcher, Cruise was adjudged safe And then Leslie Mann. who was a Brave when they were worlds cham pions. drove a line single into right and Cruise beat Young's throw to the plate. Disguised at his luck, Toney put on steam and struck out Miczey O'NeiI1 on three pitched balls, but, as said before, the basket of beans had been tipped over.
 Joe Oesch ger was Mir. StaI1ings pitcher yesterday, and he hung ( bunch of ciphers round the necks o1 the 1920 Giants in fine fashion.

Tn one of the fastest bouts ever seen in this city, and the only one in which a championship was at stake, Mike O'Dowd, King of the M1ddleweights, defeated Walter Iaurette, Canadian contender, last night. Iaurette was a tough customer, and O'Dowd could not put over the cruslaer, though he gave the Canadian a sound beating. Laurette fought a losing battle, and his seconds tossed in the sponge be fore two minutes of the sixth had passed The Casino was packed with fans who paid high prices for stand ing room, even-

of mine, and the last time the gong sounded while Fitzgerald was raising his hand for the fourth count.
 The second, like the rest, found ODowd the aggressor, and raining blow upon ibGow on the Canadians head. In the fifth OfDowd managed to get Laurette in 8 neutral conner where he held the contendeIIrom the North by the head with one hand and sent 8 series of rights to the face. Amid the cries from the crowd to knock him out, OfDowd let loose his right with force but Laurette turned quickly and the blow landed on the head or shoulder.
 In the sixth both went at it like ti- gers but IAurette soon was winded. and ODowd hammered him until the Canadian's seconds tossed up the sponge after about two minutes of the sixth had passed.
 The champion was in wonderful condition and carried the fight at top speed while it lasted. His cleverness also put all doubts aside as to tha many claims that rushing and slug. ging was his only forte, In all OiDowd is one of the cievereSt, fastest and hardest hitting na1ddleweights that ever held the crown. As his record shows seven knooazo1ts in the last eight bouts, it is easily seen why the
 niddleweight title holder is the most
 popular of all champions of the diff ferent classes.
 1 O'Dowd's green bathrobe decorated
 with yellow harps was the center of
 much attraction as were his green | silk tights. The fans cheered the
 ruler of the middleweight realm and numerous fans tried to shake his l hand after the bout, many of whom I succeeded. In the semi-fna1, George Proto- ! Tommy Shea, fought a fast draw.
