~ ANsAS CITY, May 20.-The
ranch-bred boys sit on the
IN sidelines when the State
University polo squad rides
into action out in old Arizona.
The business OF urging horse
after steer differs from mounted
pursuit of white willow ball with
the varsity honor at stake. Ask
Capt. @. r. Mauger, U. S. A., coach
OF the Westerners.
Not man who ever rode the
range Is on the team" Capt. Mauger
said as the squad prepared to re-
sumo transforming trip to the
Atlantic Coast today.
The boys from the ranches sit
back relaxed and Jog with the
horses, which makes it difficult to
hit a little thing like a polo ball.
The real player rides forward on his
stirrups."
The team stopped for a game with
the Kansas City Country Club
riders here yesterday. but the field
was muddy and the match was can
celed.
Capt. Mauger said the Arizona
riders would not participate in the
intercollegiate championships at
Cedarhurst, Long Island, June 1920,
despite the efforts of their angel"
Will Rogers, who raised $4,000 for
travelling expenses at a benefit show.

GAVE RIGHT SLANT
ON PENNANT RACES
AS Showing and Tight Chase
in National Loop Bear
Out Prophets.
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR.,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

r AJOR league base ball
M teams are busy these days
W. proving that forecasts of
a close race in the Ma
tional League and the Athletics to
win again in the American were
correct.
The st. Louis and New York
National League clubs are battling
for the lead only half game
apart. The Philadelphia Ameri-
cans, while they have not been
able to outdistance their leading
rivals, are on top and have done
their best to make it a runaway
by winning II straight.
The AS downed the Detroit Tigers,
SO yesterday behind the unbeatable
pitching of big George Earnshaw. The
Philadelphia rlght-hander gave Just two
hits while his teammates, led by Al
Simmons, made good use of nine blows
of Waite Hoyt. Simmons, hitting in
his seventeenth successive game, con-
nected for single, double and
triple.
The victory resulted in no gain for
the AS, however, for their leading RI
walls, the New York Yankees, staged
a comeback to hand Cleveland its
eleventh straight defeat, to g. The
Indians, whose weakness is one of the
seasons puzzles, made a great attempt
to break their losing streak by driving
Charley Ruling from the mound in the
second inning, but Henry johnson pitch
ed good relief ball and Clint Brown
could not still the big bats Of the Yanks
in the early innings.
Washington lost some ground, as rain
stopped the game at Chicago. Wet
grounds halted Boston and st. Louis.
Timely smuggling enabled the National
League leaders, the Cardinals, and their
strongest rivals, the Giants, to continue
their race. The cards beat Brooklyn, 6
to 2, as the Robins failed to give Babe
Phelps good support.
They got only two runs on IL hits
OF Hallahan and Derringer and made
five errors. The Giants took things
fairly easy against Cincinnati using
young Bill Mcrren on the mound for the
full game and holding Critz out of the
lineup, but they won out easily, to 3.
The third place Boston Braves con-
tinued their pursuit of the leaders by
pushing Chicago deeper into fourth.
Aided by three Cub errors, the Braves
scored eight runs in the first inning and
won out TO 5. Ace" Elliott OF the
PhillieS was in the hole again, but this
time it was not of his own making. He
relieved Jim Elicit in the ninth inning
with none out and the bases fun ana
retired the Pirates in time to save q
8 TO 2 victory. The victory left Phila-
delphia only half game behind the
NTH place P1ttsburghers.

RING SHOW At LOW
PRICES GIVES KICK
First Five Bouts Prove Good,
While FicuCeIIo Stops
Warren in Final.
BY WILBUR WOOD.

n YEW YORK, May 20.-The first
M of the Madison Square Gar
" den's new talent boxing shows
was staged last night and it
must be admitted that the noble ex-
pertinent turned out to be great stuff
for the 1000 fans who took advantage
of the opportunity to sit in ringside
seat for $3.50 or elsewhere for as little
as SO cents.
There wasn't a dud in the FIRST five
fights on the bill, but there were no
knockoutS and every well regulated box
ing show should have a knockout to
satisfy the cavemen in the audience.
Well, they got one in the main event,
fast one, too, when Ralph Ficucello Of
Brooklyn stopped Ad Warren, former
North Carolina foot ball player, In /
minute II seconds of the first round.
As the bell rang Warren came siding
out to ring center in a half crouch and
Ficucello greeted him with left hook
that spilled the collegian for eight. AL
most Immediately Warren was driven to
his knees by another left, but came up
without count. The Brooklyn boy
then switched to right and upset Ad
for nine. When Warren was hoored a
fourth time Referee Lou Magnolia
stopped it.
Ficucello weighed 1877 and Warren
1882 pounds.

~ONTRADICTORY reports as to
what benefits a ball player re-
ceives by bowling throughout
the Winter have been heard,
but Harold Hodges, for one, chirps a
lusty yea.
Harold bowls plenty. He smashed the
NAPLES for an average well over 100
over at the Georgetown Recreation.
And now with many Of his fellow sand
letters still trying to shake the kinks
from their whips, Hodges finds his in
midseason form.
Hodges bowled over the Calvary
brakes, champions of the Georgetown
Church Base Ball League, yesterday
The champs got two hits-singles. And
two walks And were shut out.
All Hodges did was the pitching and
to hit safely four times in as many
trips. Alone, he got twice as many
hits as the champion Calvary Drake
nine put together.
Hodges sterling performance today
has West Washington, which won 8
to 0. on the top of the league.
UT would SEEM" to quote a very
i annoyed Union Printer, that as
long as we've been in this league,
and as long as that fellow has, we
oughta be able to hit him"
Lefty Kuhnert, who was pitching ball
before the Government League ever was
dreamed of, was the fellow the Typo
was speaking Of. For Lefty, despite the
illusions his foes have of cobwebS cling
ing to his southpaw wing. let the Typos,
with chance to take the league lead
yesterday, down with eight hits and
aided Navy Yard to win, IL to 5.
Seven Typographical eros also aided
Navy Yard.
Louie Naples, whom the late Willie
Andrews described as his idea of a most
valuable sandlot player. socked a home
run yesterday as r. r. Y. M. G. A.
downed Big Print Shop, to 2, in an
Industrial League game.
Eddie Collifiower made his debut with
the Printers and made two hits. a
double and a triple. But at shortstop,
he kicked In with two errods.
Perhaps the change from the West
Ellipse to the East and the Government
League to the Departmental did Eddie
Lisensky a lot of good Never regarded
as particularly dangerous hitter, Eddie
nevertheless made three singles in three
trips yesterday as c., P. o. swamped the
Aggies, Is tot.
A lot of help Pitcher Heelon got from
his knights of Columbus Insects as he
pitched no-hit, no-run game against
the Boys Band yesterday. Heelon'S
mates kicked with six errors that en-
abled the Boys Band to get three runs
and otherwise running what should
have been perfectly good shut-out to
boot The little Caseys won, IL to 3.
Pete Ingram gave a neat pitching
performance yesterday as st. Eliza
beth's Hospital defeated State Depart
ment, to o. Ingram allowed only four
hits st. Elizabeth's will play Boiling
Field Saturday at 4:30 on the hospital
diamond.
Buck Pagan, pitcher infielder with

FIGURES INDICATE
NEW PILL PEPPER
Hitting Feats in American
League More Numerous
Than Last Year.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
- HICAGO, May 90 American
League pitchers, except for a
few slow curve-ball tossers, to-
day admitted that the "deader"
base ball was a pretty healthy sphere.
A comparison of records from the
current American League campaign
with those UP to May 20, 1880, reveals
that in I'VE cases out of six the present
ball has a livelier habit than the dis
carded ball Of a year ago.
A year ago today there were is games
in which one team scored 10 runs or more
a game. So far this season there have
been 81, or more.
Last year at this time there were
Is big" innings in which a team
scored or more runs. To date in
1881 there have been 4 more.
individual! batting feats have been
ago also. Up to May 20, 1880, is
batters succeeded In getting four hits
IN one game, while one hammered out
five; so far this season Is batters
whacked out four hits in one game,
while more belted out five over nine
innings each.
Again, up to May 20, 1880, pitchers
turned in 81 games In which the op-
position batsmen collected five or fewer
hits in nine innings. To date this
