the proposal was last made before

BENJAMIN II. Petiey. ! was the only
member Of that committee who sup

The Pirate pitcher who held the
Giants to six hits and a lonely run was
none other than the ancient Earl of
Hamilton, an aged peer of the realms
of baseball who was reported to have
passed his prime when frankie Frisch
was making mud pies in his best pink
pinafore. When Bill McKechnie an
nounced his selection for the mound
the New Workers were overjoyed.
Wen make him a beltcd earl!" they
cried. Alas, how wrong they were! AS
wrong as wrong could be. In his most
aristocratic and compelling manner,
with touch Of impationce and an air
of hauteur, the old gentleman had the
Giants jumping through hoop and
playing dead at his bidding throughout
the afteroon.
However, there was no lack Of ex-
citement, and at least one distinguished
visitor on hand to witness it. Judge
Kenesaw Mountain Lands, the general
issimo of the organized forces Of base
ball, was occupying ringside seat
when the recently organized boxing
club of the Brush Stadium put on its
first autumn show for the beneft Of
some ten thousand spectators and the
famous jurist. 1t was only a bantam
weight battle, and short one at that,

plant. They saw the bout for nothing,
and thus enjoyed those popular
prices" that fight promoters talk about
so often. The contestants were "Roar-
ing Rabbit" Maranville. the Springfield
(Mass.) Socker, and Lucky Johnny"
Rawlings, the Bloomfield Brighter.
One Fast Round
Round One-Maranville jumped from
his corner at first base and made leap
toward the Rawlings corner One Of
the Bloomfield Blighter's seconds, Ban
croft, passed Rawlings ball with
which to tap the Rabbit on the spine.
Lucky Johnny" and his opponent
clinched around second base after Raw
lings had thrown the ball into a field
box, evidently for the purpose of doing
away with the evidence in the case.
The Roaring Rabbit" countered with
right to the optic and was INN ediately
disqualified for fighting.
Referee Ernie Quigloy knows the
laws of the boxing commission. No
such actions as striking an opponent
forcibly will be tolerated at local fight
clubs. They never have been. anyway.
Rawlings got the decision and black
eye. The Rabbit says he's welcome to
both. A little later in the day Cosy
Dolan was elected from the meeting
for asking Arbiter Quigley if he knew
who laid the cuckoo's eggs in the clock
intimating that it might have been a
family secret among the Quigleys.
In the meanwhile, the Pirates went
out and ran right away from the pur-
suing Giants. 1t was flat-foot against
winged-foot. Carson Bigbee was cred
tied with pair of stolen bases because
the Giants were afraid to make play
on him with Carey on third. Art Nehf
had to stand out on the mound and
take the abuse for it all Singles by
Traynor, Grimm and Schmidt, and
speedy base running gave the Pirates
two tall;es in che second, and they got

player for 1922 by a wide margin, ac-
cording to the official announcement
made by I. E. Sanborn, chairman of
the American League trophy commit
tee. His nearest rival in the contest
was Ed Rommel, whose pitching was
recognized as Che chief factor in lift
ing the Athletics out of eighth place
The St. Louis first baseman lacked only
five points of receiving the highest
possible vote, "a points. Rommels
total was 81 points.
Ray Schalk, White SoX catcher, was
close third, with twenty-six points,
Joe Bush received the highest total OF
all Of the New York team, with nine
teen points, which ranked him fourth,
just ahead of Eddie Collins, of Chicago
Besides Bush, the Yankees who fig
ured in the balloting were Pipp
Schang, Meusel and Scott.
The contest was decided by a COM
mittee of eight baseball writer's, one
in each city Of the circuit, each Of
whom selected eight "best players
one from each team, and ranked them
according to their individual prefer
ences on ballots so arranged that first
