ACTION IS PROMISED
IN BARRACKS BOUT

Middleweights will supply the ac-
tion in the ten-round feature bout
tomorrow night at the Washington
barracks when Jumbo Eggleston of
the Mohawk Athletic Club tackles
Jack Turner of California
Turner, who is said to have pointed
the way to such clever scrappers as
Phil Krug and X. o. Kaplan, is ex-
pected to make matters interesting
for the Mohawk battler. Standing
only five feet and two inches in
height, but with a reach of Is inches.
Eggleston usually offers his oppo-
nents real opposition.
Johnny Sudenburg, Omaha veteran,
will be matched against Joe Downey
in the six-round semi-finaL The

The tail end Of the procession Is
two weeks back Of the parade, but
the fourth club as likely as not may
become first with a proper brace, and
the second and third clubs have the
same chance open to them with fewer
victories necessary to bring the
change about.
Had the St. Louis Browns won as
well from the Athletics as they did
from two of the other eastern clubs,
they would have been fighting for
the top of the league today. They
cleaned up on New York and Wash
ington and oddly enough lost their
home series to Boston and Philadel-
phia. If they had taken one more
game from Boston and two more from
Philadelphia they would have been
up in the eagles eyie now.
How then can any line be drawn
upon the percentage chances of any
team in the league to win the cham
pionship? II one series will com
pIetely alter the order Of standing,
percentage will, not work out at this
stage of the race.
The situation is different in the
National League, whore the Giants
seem to have the championship nailed
down 50 tight that nothing less than
series Of gigantic explosions can
take IT away from them.

GROVER CLEVELAND ALEXANDER
Pitcher. Chicago Cubs: A'majOr league
leader for IL yenrs; greatest pitcher
in the National League.

Try to catch a base-runner off Of
the base any time you believe he is
taking too much OF lead and that
you can get" him. If you do not
have excellent control and a very
fast delivery there is no reason for
throwing to the bases, except to
worry the runner. In my opinion
the practice of throwing to the
bases, as some pitchers use it, slows
up the game and brings no results
except an occasional wild pitch.
