MATS JUST HITTING
THEIR TRUE STRIDE
BY JOHN b. FOSTER.

NEW YORK, July 2.-Washington
was nowhere year ago in the
American League race, and today
Washington is a coming team. So is
Detroit a coming team. These two
outfits apparently are getting primed
to give the Chicago White Sox and
the Philadelphia Athletics several
strong arguments as to which club
rightfully deserves to challenge the
leadership of the New York Yankees.
Detroit eased itself into fourth place
today because Washington's defeat of
the Athletics sent the latter into fifth
position while the Tigers were win
ming from Cleveland. The Senators
have dealt a crushing blow to the
Athletics in the present series.
Washington may not be able to
overtake the Yankees, but the New
York team will be tried severely
before it gets to the finish line.
Washington is settling into a sane,
conservative winning game as COM
pared with some other teams in the
league.
If the Senators had not been Grip
pied, lame and halt for most Of the
season to date, they would have been
to port earlier than this. The team
has a lot of merit which has in no
way displayed itself, because the
Senators limped on one crutch from
the time of the opening game in
April.
Next week the Yankees will be at
midway house on their road to
another pennant. They cannot be
much better off or much worse off
than they were in midseason last
year. They have pumped lead and
home runs into the Boston Red Rox
about as they did a year ago. Other
teams have been treated in about the
same manner as they were last season
except one-the Athletics. A year
ago at this time the Yanks had won
five games from Philadelphia and
lost eight. This season to date the
Yanks have won IL from the Ath.
letics and lost eight. Thus the two
teams have only two more games to
play with each other, so that New
York will surely surpass last years
record against Philadelphia.
1t probably is apparent to Connie
Mack now that the players who made
up the Athletics of 1925 were a better
working team combination than the
players who have made up the 1927
outfit. What the Athletics needed
this season was not years and expert.
ence but more speed.

PITCHERS.
FINE CONTROL MARKS
HADLEY'S THIRD WIN

When he toppled the AS yesterday,
Irving Hadley certainly showed
complete form reversal. In his nine
previous appearances on the hill this
season, he had been hit freely and
was fearfully wild. He had averaged
for each nine innings Of toll yield OF
sos hits, Asa passes and 5.O4 runs.
Somewhat different from the three
hits, two passes and lone run the
Mackmen cleaned off him.
His start yesterday was his seventh
of the season and he went the route
for the second time. He now has a
record of three victories and two de-
feats.
Jimmy Dykes, Mack's first sacker.
is nursing a sore jaw today. In the
first inning yesterday, Speaker bound
ed ball against Jimmy's face, 1nflict'
ing painful if not serious injury.
Harris and Judge put on a flashy
play in the sixth inning. Bucky had
to scurry to his right for difficult
stop of French's grounder, but his peg
to first was rather wild Judge,
though, leaned far to bag the sphere
while keeping a toehold on the sack.
Ruel had a fine afternoon at bat.
He singled each of the four times he
stepped to the plate. Muddy's first
hit was a grounder to deep short that
Boley checked, but could not get the
ball to Dykes in time for an out.
Grove was charged with the only
error of the day when he failed to
touch first after taking a throw from
Dykes, thus giving Goslin life in
the eighth.
BoIey did a good piece of work in
the sixth when he blocked Ruels
drive that had skidded past Hale.
The Mack shortstop got to the ball so
fast that he tried to flag Judge at
third. He missed there, but the Ma
tional, thinking the ball had gone to
the outfield, darted for home and was
caught by Hale's relay.
Judge was the only player able to
steal base. He pilfered the middle
sack in the second inning. Ruel
turned back Bishop in the first
frame, and Muddy was caught by
Cochrane's throw in the fourth.

DEMPSEY TAKES DAY OFF.
THOUCHIN NEED OF WORK

Ed Van Every, a New York news
paper man. and Ed remarked 10
Dempsey that DIR. Fralich was COM
ing up to examine him. Van ex-
planned that DIR. Fralich is a New
York physician.
IF he is a New York physician Ok"
replied Dempsey. He NAV examine
me. But not like the doctors that ex-
amined me here the other day. About
eight Of ten of them stood outside the
ring and looked me over.
IF L am in such terrible condition
as some people would have one be-
lieve, it's very funny that 1 passed a
physical examination for a $50 900 life
insurance policy just six months
ago"
Now, fellow may be good enough
to pass any kind of an insurance ex-
animation, but that doesn't necessari-
ly mean he is in condition to fight 10
hard rounds with a good opponent.
Needs More Fast Boxing.
I suggested to Jack that he get a
few youngsters. who will make him
step around faster. The men he has
are good. but he needs more. Leo
Flynn is trying to get some. I was
told that Leo expects Dave Shade up
to box with the champion.
Later is was said Dempsey had cut
out work yesterday because his train
ers thought he had come along too
fast in the last four days, which
sounds like bunk to me.
Dempsey had a pleasant chat with
some of the newspaper boys and then
he and Jerry went back to the bunga-
low about $50 O'Clock.
One thing about Dempsey, which !
have stressed before-he certainly
doesn't seem to be worrying about the
fight. He is eating pretty we'll, and his
skin is fairly clear. He is clearing up
a slightly muddy" looking condition
I observed on his arrival in New
York.
Jacks plan Is to resume boxing to-
day. 1 think he needs plenty of work.
| know Dempsey always was at his
fighting best at a bit less than 100
pounds. Exactly what he weighs to-
day only he knows, but I'll wager It
is over 200.
1t isn't only that Jack has weight
he must put on speed.

won at Toledo, If you recall, by
registering four IS on a par dog
leg hole by banging straight for
the green over the trees and then
chipping up dead to the cup.
The stymie, so rarely played in
friendly rounds. although it should
be, Is always a problem to the rank
and file of players. So Ted's
method of playing it may come in
handy. He uses a mashie and
lofts the ball over the intervening
one and let's it roll into the hole.
It's a delicate stroke, played with
the wrists, with little backswing
and perfect timing. Most of us try
to play it without a follow through.
Note Rays follow through in the
drawing of him at the finish of the
stroke. That's all there is to it, but
it does take world Of practice to
perfect one in its simple mysteries.
