~ HILADELPHIA'S bid for some
other National League berth
than the cellar has been stayed
l. off by Hornsby, Sisler and com"
pany.
The first two games OF a Crucial
cellar series" yesterday found the Bos-
ton Braves twice victorious over the
Quakers. At the close of the bargain
bill the Braves were four games re-
moved from the humiliating danger OF
sinking into last place.
AS a matter of fact, lineup boast
ing such stars as Sisler, Hornshy and
Bell has no business flirting so danger
ously with the bottom of the standing.
Complete collapse of what was regarded
at the start of the season as . fairly
strong pitching staff seems to explain
the Braves long residence in the depths
OF the second division.

both games in yesterdays double

$4,000 a Year Set High Cost
Record for Mats i'm Old Days

TN these days when major league
base ball players seldom talk in
salary terms of less than Ave fig-
Il ures, it would perhaps be consoling
to the owners of some of our mod
ern high-priced teams to reminesce
with Mike Scanlon. Washington's old
est diamond veteran, who says the
highest priced team in his more than
IS years at the head of the Washing
tons Nationals cost him and his asso-
ciates just $4,000 for the years service
Mr.. Scanlon, now 81 years old and
still interested in the national game,
furnishes some interesting comparisons
relative to players earnings of 40 years
ago and today. His 1888 team, con-
sisting of some of the stars of the day,
drew just $4,000 out of the clubs cof-
fers, the largest sum paid out during
his management, which ceased about
1900, when the Wagner brothers OF
Philadelphia purchased the local Ma
tional League team,
Strange as 1t may seem to the pres
ent-day fan, the catcher was the high
est salaried player of that period. But
when one is familiar with the catchers
duties of that day it does not seem un-
usual, as the modern equipment for
protecting backstops was unheard Cd
then.
The principal reason why salaries
were mot so high for members OF the
old Nationals. Mr.. Scanlon says, Is be-
cause positions were secured FOR all OF
the players in the Government depart
ments, where the players were assured
of positions throughout the year. Fur
loughs were granted the players for the
base ball season.
Catcher Snyder. later manager of the
Cincinnati Reds, headed the pay roll
list in 1888 His work for the season
netted him about $1,000. while few OF
the other players drew more than $500.
Eleven players composed the club.
The regular lineup Of the high
priced $4,000 team consisted of Sny-
der. Lynch, Baker. Powells, Gerhardt,
later with the New York Nationals;
Morrisey. Mcclellan, Mansell and Der
by. One extra pitcher and catcher
were carried with the team.

BLlTMAN POSTS FORFEIT
FOR CANZONERI BATTLE

PHILADELPHIA, July 3 R.-The
Pennsylvania State Athletic Commits
sion announced today that Max Hod,
manager of Harry Blitman, Philadel-
pfia, had posted a forfeit OF $4,000
with the commission as challenge TO
meet Tony CanZoneri for the feather
weight championship of the world.
Blitman last week won the decision
over Canzoneri in a 10-round non-title
bout.
The forfeit is not restricted to Penn
sy.vania, but will be turned over to the
commission of any State in which a
title bout may be arranged.

~ City League officials. enthused
Il with the success of the pro-
4 j gram at Griffith Stadium on
Saturday, when the final game
OF the American Legion series was
staged already have decided to promote
similar league next Summer, but
many changes will be made in the regu-
lations and manner of conducting the
series.
The series just closed has left a bad
taste among the youngsters who played
in the league. Wholesale eliminations
of teams because of the use of ineligi-
BILE players resulted in unsportsmanlike
demonstrations on Saturday, and an
antagonistic attitude toward those in
charge of the series has prevailed
among the managers and players of
most of the teams
The most diSgruntled team Is the
Boys Club Standards, which lost to
the Lincolns Saturday. Manager Tom
Suter of the Standards claimed the
title by forfeit on the grounds that his
team, champions of A section, we're to
meet the champions of B section. All
B teams were disqualified, however, and
the Lincolns were chosen to meet
Standards, who had defeated Lincolns
earlier in the season. 9 to 3.
Although no decision has been. an
nounced concerning the Standards pro-
test, plans are going forward to send
the Lincolns to the regional games. the
dates for which have not been set as
yet.
With the season more than half COM
pleted Capital City League teams start
down the home stretch this week end.
Although Georgetown A. c. is now a
strong favorite to win the A unlimited
flag, they still have to face Dread

is lowering close to second place with
