ATHLETICS ''CRACK"
YANKEES FOR TWO.
Also Are Likely to "Crack"
American League Record
for Straight Wins.
BY GAYLE TALBOT, Jr..

asSoSldttu ETeSS GpOftS WTlteE-
THERE was. another parcel of bad
news today for the large but
select group awaiting the official
'cacking" of the Philadelphia
Athletics. About all Connie Mack's
young men appear likely to crack this
season is the existing American League
record for consecutive victories.
BY defeating the New York Yankees
in both ends of yesterdays double
header at Shibe Park, 4 to and Is to 4,
the champions Fan their string to IT
straight and staked themselves to a
5-game lead over the field. Idle be-
cause of rain at Boston, the Washington
Senators eased int second place.
II they win from the Yankees the
next two afternoons the Athletics will
tie the American League mark for con-
secutive triumphs set by the Chicago
White Sox in 1906. In way they will
have bettered the previous record. as
the Sox were held to one tie in setting
up their long string
The most significant feature Of yes
terday'S double win was the pitching
OF Leroy Mahaffey in the night-cap.
The young right-hander, one of Mack's
second string" moundsmen, held the
yankees TO one hit for the first seven
innings and famed five. He had moth
ing TO worry about after his mates fitted
him out with a nine-run lead in the
hrst inning. Lefty Grove scored his
NTH consecutive victory in the first
game when he outdueled young Henry
johnson. Twice, with two Yanks on
and ore out, he struck out the last two
batters.
Grove, Earnshaw and Walberg each
has contributed four wins to the Attn
ietlcs' present streak while Rommel and
Mahaffey each has scored a pair. The
odd one was credited to Hank Nc
Donald.
Yves Terrell had to rush to Willis
Hudlin's aid in the ninth inning before
tne Cleveland Indians could record a
7-to-6 victory over the Chicago White
SoX. Going into the final round three
runs to the good. Hudlin weakened and
put the first two men on base before
Terrell appeared. Both scored while
Terrell was retiring the side. Eddie
Morgan hit his first homer of the wear
with one on in the sixth.
Rain halted the only other game
scheduled in the American.

70 YEARS. TRAINING
FITS HIM FOR BERTH
Former Aide to Johnson and
Barnard Due to Be Ele-
waited Tomorrow.
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.

OHICAGO, May 26.-Some 20
IL years ago Henry Kline,
~ chief clerk in the passenger
department of the Wabash
Railroads Chicago office, called
VIII Harridge to his desk from a
ticket window and said:
viii, this is your last day with
the Wabash. Monday you start
working for Ban Johnson, presi-
dent of the American League, as
MS private secretary"
I what" stammered the tall,
quiet young man.
Just what 1 said" retorted Klineh
Bob McRoy is leaving Mr.. Johnson's
office to become secretary of the Boston
club. Mr.. johnson has taken q fancy
to you and you will have a great
opportunity as his secretary"
How great the opportunity was 70
become, Mr.. Kline never dreamed. For
wednesday, in Cleveland, the eight club
owners OF the American League will
meet to select the third president of
the junior major circuit and their
choice 1t Is believed, will be Will Har-
ridge.
Harridge Most Eligible.
Since the death of Ernest S. Barnard
on March 90 American League mag
mates have been canvassing the coun-
try for the most desirable and capable
man to head their organization. None
more satisfactory than Harridge has
been found. So 1t is expected that
Harridge will be elected American
League president fer the balance of
this fiscal year and then, If he gives
satisfaction. for longer term.
Twenty years in the American League
ctnce, first as private secretary to Ban
johnson. the fighter. and then the
elected league secretary under Barnard,
the cool. calculating diplomat and bust
ness man. has given Harridge his
masters degree in the executive end
OF base ball. In many respects Har-
ridge closely resembles the late Barnard.
He is slow of speech. farseeing and
oefnite IN his actions, but Of an affable
disposition that is quick to win friends.
Like Johnson and Barnard, Harridge
has no hobby other than base ball. He
likes golf, but never has had much OPP
portun1ty to play the game Harridge
charactertzes himself the worlds worst
golfer" A statement that Is stanchly
disputed by Henry Edwards, the Ameri-
SoAA AIGd6NS f1dTTlQR6 HlSO
DOES little gardening at his home in
Wilmette, where he lives with his wife
and son. But base ball occupies most
of his time.
League in Good Condition.
'The American League is In splendid
condition" declares Harridge. "Mr.
Barnard left everything in wonderful
order at the time of his death. At
tendance has been excellent so far this
season, and even the second division
clubs have been playing the sort of bali
that maintains the fans interest. The
only thing We can ask is for some real
base ball weather"
1t is unlikely the American League
will elect successor to Harridee as
secretary at the Wednesday meeting.
Barnard built up very efficient once
staff and the sscretarial work can be
carried on satisfactorily until the De-
cember meeting. Harridge, If elected
will continue to carry on the policies
of E. S. Barnard which were satisfac-
tory to every club owner and which
brought the American League its most
successful years.

Injunction Stopping Camera
From Meeting Sharkey Merely
Complicates Heavy Situation

ruling reversed in time to go through
with the bout in August. General
opinion in the sock market is that,
after elaboration. Johnston will de-
eide to let matters stand and seek a
substitute for Camera.
Mickey Walker already has nomi-
mated himself as a substitute against
Sharkey. Mickey is under suspen-
sion in this State and would have to
be whitewashed to make such a bout
possible. He was declared null and
void as middleweight champion on
the same day the Boxing Commits
sion dethroned Schmeling.
Tommy Loughran, most popular
heavyweight in the game today.
would be an acceptable opponent for
Sharkey, but it so happens the Gar
den has an option on Loughrsn's
services throughout 1891. To box
at Ebbets Field it would be neces-
sary for him to obtain q release
from the Garden.
