arranze another match If they desire
to desSrnafnes which is the better bat
tier, These boys went through ten
rounds OF clever ift-wielding in the
feature at Ardmore last night, but it
didn't mean anything. so far As de-
eisiOn was concerned. When the mill
ended, Referee Pat O'Connor accorded
each principal an even break. It was
the fourth time these rivale had
fought to a standstill.
The Phiiadelphian opened the arEu.
ment in an, aggressive manner, and
during the greater part OF the set-to
carried the fight to his opponent.
Little JEFF can use both hands
effectively. however. and managed to
Withstand the onslaughts of Murray.
Near the finish. the Baltimorean un-
ried Murray and brought the draw

AT our meeting" said Mr.. johnson.
1T was the sentiment that two me m
bers should not be brought into the
directorate. as they had attempted TO
wreck the American League. Mr.
Rupert of New York was elected a
member OF the board, but declined to
serve. The clubowners then elected
Mr.. Shibe to fill his place.
Col. Huston once removed from the
hles of the New York American
League club a private letter i wrote
Col Rupert regarding the gambling
situation in Boston. He conveyed the
contents of that letter to President
Heydler of the National League,
thinking 1 could not prove the state
ments ! had made in it. / did prove
them to the satisfaction of MI.
Heydler. and ii led to the removal of
Lee Maeee and Hal Chase from base

That is the kind of man Col.

viii Not Retire Under Fire.

Moran Hurrying Home.
They say that Frank Moran, elated
over his victory over Joe Beckett, got
homesick as soon as he heard the de-
tails of the Dempsey-Brennan night.
and now has booked for America with

which would be a man sized job for

rubbed his mustache.
II say. what would we be doing with

Managerial Qualities.
Ty Cobb is going to fix it so 1therell
be no internal disorders on the De-
troit hall club. He's going to get rid
of bunch of men whom he doesn't
like, or who don't like him.
1t is said that Cobb is willing to
overlook the fact that Charley Herzos
and he once exchanged wallops when
the Giants and Tigers played, and
that. therefore. the Giants and his club
are likely to come together in q series
Of games in Texas, where both will
