BARRETT-TENDLER
FIGHT IS.A DRAW

PHILADELPHIA. July 22.-Lew
Tender of Philadelphia and Bobby
Barrett. Clifton Heights, Pa, fought
10 hard rounds to a draw last night
at the. National League base ball
park. The judges disagreed and the
decision was rendered by the referee
The bout was for the welterweight
championship of Pennsylvania.
Barrett forced the fighting from the
start. Tender landed many punches
but they appeared to lack power and
did not bother his rugged opponent.
In the clinches the Philadelphia
southpaW hooked his left to the kid
neys often. but Barrett usually was
on the inside, and his arms broke the
force of the blows. At close quar-
ters Barrett drove terrific right-hand
punches to the body, and several
times he appeared to have Tender
in distress.
In the tenth round however, Tend
Ter came back strong, fighting off
Barretts vicious attacks and sending
nome several good punches. At the
final bell he landed his hardest blow
of, the fight. a right hook to the head
Both men displayed much science and
neither was off his feet at any time

coupled with the White Sox's loss,
brought the two teams into a tie for
fourth place.
Boston resignedly accepted its ninth
straight defeat as Cleveland nosed

The Giants continued prodigal of
their once seemingly foolproof lead

their margin over the Cubs to six

The squirt of the Cardinals can
avail them nothing in the champion
ship way. They are seemingly
through with the race except paying
toll to the schedule and fulfilIing
their engagements.
HOlke, first baseman of the PhiIa-
delphia Nationals, tied a world record
in base ball in the first game of the
double header against Chicago on
July 19, when he made seven assists.
Two, others in the National have had
that mark-Bransfield of Pittsburgh
in 1904 and Luderus of Philadelphia
in 1918. Seven assists in one game
for a first baseman is unusual The
only American League first baseman
with seven to his credit is Stovall,
former st. Louis star. That is the
high mark in the American League
also.
First basemen made more assists
when the batterS bunted the ball
more than they do now. Bunting
has decreased SO per cent in the last
three years since the players began
busting them out of the park. I'm
expected use of the bunt these days
finds the first baseman and the third
baseman fiatfooted half the time.
In former years these two infielders

Wright, the Pittsburgh shortStop
has accepted nine chances in a stand

equaled the record which was made
by Maranville Of Pittsburgh in

Wright and Jackson, of the champ
ION Giants, are making first year
records as shortStops this season and
both of them are doing well IT is
probable that Wright will make the
best first season record of any short
stop who has entered the National
League in d quarter of century. He
seems to be on the road to surpaSs
the splendid performance of Dave
bancroft who went to the Phillies in
1915 and frightened up an inield unt!l

largely on the strength of tn. show

can do as well in the last half of

half he will set a mark that will
