Way Into Final Round

Fred Baegs and j. P. Stockton won
their way INTO the final round in the
mems doubles at the Uobokcn Tennis
Club yesterday afternoon by defeating
Edward Oelsner and Carl Joliffe.

The deciding game went to Baggs and
Stockton after it had gone to deuce
six times.

Glen Ridge pair, defeated another

The Giants wasted little time in over
coming the visitors advantage and tax
ing the lead themselves. After Doyle
had popped to Terry and Snyder had
flied cut to Paskert, Barnes started the
timely rally with Texas Lacquer to
left center. Burns then slammed a
liner to Deal, which the latter could
not hold and both runners we're safe.
Bancroft Immediately proceeded to re-
deem his costly error by smashing one
over Robertson's head in left field for
a triple, which chased Barnes and
Burns across.
Both pitchers settled down again
after the sixth and neither allowed an
other hit until the end. The Cubs
made final stand in the ninth, but
Barnes turned them back in order,
was sent in to bat for Vaughn in the
ninth. The former Giant bounced a
grounder between Frisch and Bancroft,
but the latter made a great play and
nailed the runner by step. Kelly
then made fine stop of !7lack 5
Crounder and Bancroft pulled down
Itcrzog's line drive for the final out.
Charles A. Stoneham, president OF
the New York club, divided 81 900
among the members Of the team yester-
day for taking the recent series from
the Reds and another $1,000 for their
victory over the champions on Sunday.
The Giants and Cubs will meet in a

Yesterdays affair was brilliant
pitching duel between Jesse Barnes
and Southpaw jim Vaughn. The for
mer gave just about his best exhibit
tlon of the current campaign. He
allowed only two hits and would have
shut out his opponents but for an ex-
cusable error by Dave Bancroft in the
sixth inning, which Deal had opened
with triple.
Vaughn also twirled in mastery
style. but his performance was over
Swallowed by that of his rival. The big
left-hander yielded only four safeties,
but three of these were punched in the
sixth inning, when the local players
scored their only two runs.
Nary Base on Balls
Neither pitcher issued base on
chile in the pinches. With the excep-
ton of the eventful sixth, only three
men faced each twirler in each inning
Both were accorded splendid support
by their mates. The Cubs did not
make a single error and the Giants
were guilty of one only.
Each boxman was found for only one
hit up to the sixth. Herzog singled in
the first inning, but he was caught
stealing moment later. Larry Doyle
also singled in the third, but Snyder
Immediately hit into double play.
The work of the Giants intielders,
particularly that of Frsch and Ban
croft, bordered on the spectacular. The
Fordham Flash handled seven more or
less difficult chances in the field with
out a slip. In the second inning he
made a wonderful stop of Paskert's
terrific drive. The force of the blow
knocked him over. but he was on his
feet in an instant and retired the
runner at first.
For the first five innings both pitch
ers were going along so well that it
seemed almost certain that only one
run would be needed to decide the
issue. The Cubs scored that run in
the sixth, but the rejuvenated Giants
were not to be denied. They came
back in their half and came back
strong, showing two runs across and
thereby clinching the game.
The outlook was rather dark for
Barnes after Deal opened the sixth with
a three bagger to deep left center The
Giants infielders came in for play at
the plate. Daily then hit a rather sharp
grounder to Bancroft and the shortstop
fumbled the ball, allowing Deal to score
and DAILY to reach first base in safety.
Vaughn bunted to Barnes, putting DAILY
on second. Black followed with an
other sacrifice to Frisch, sending DAILY
to third. Frisch then made neat play
