Hectic Starting Duel.

THEN came the final explosion as
the big sloops jockeyed for the
start. Three times Vanderbilt
chased Sopwith around in circle as
the EngliShman tried to shake him
off. Sopwith finally outsmarted the
American by doubling quickly on his
wake, breaking out big genoa jib
and getting out of the pocket so swift
" that he was over the line over half
a minute ahead of Rainbow. But
again there had been close-quarter
work as Vanderbilt slid under his
stern, few feet away, when he made
the maneuver. In few minutes VAN
derbilt was flying the protest flag, and
then Sopwith ran his up.
Vanderbilt would only admit after
ward that his protest had something
to do with the start, but Sopwith was
more specific.
He protested" the Englishman
said heatedly, because he knew had
grounds for a protest. and he wanted
to get his in first. Having won the
start, and having been beaten fairly in
the race, I decided not to go ahead
with my protest. although it was for
precisely the same reason as Satur-
day.
Furthermore, I definitely will not
challenge again for the cup"

Failed to Get Set,

IRON the stands it looked as
though the lanky Californian
had become confused, following
brisk scrimmage, and walloped the
ball with the mistaken idea he was
aiming at the Eastern goal. He ex-
planned afterward, after voicing his
chagrin to his teammates, that he was
riding SO swiftly he did not set himself
properly for the shot and pushed it
the wrong way.
Whether this piece of bad luck up
set the Western team the East never
theless galoped up and down the field,
piling up a f1ve-goal lead through the
first three periods before the West
rallied and made dogfight out of it..
With Boeseke and Cecil Smith, the
10-goal Texan, playing sensationally,
the West three times came within one
goal of tying the score in the last
half.

Detroit Punch In Infield.

DUE to the mighty stickwork Of
their inf1eld, the Tigers have
been able to get along without
a fence busting outfield. This is a
contrast with the old days when the
great Ty Cobb alternated with such
outfield smuggling mates as Sam Craw-
ford, Bobby Veach. Harry Holman
and Heinie Manush.
The only real slugger in the current
Tiger outfield is Goslin. The Goose
was a star with the champion Wash
ington Senators 10 years ago, but he
justified Mickey Cochrane's confidence
in him by staging comeback and
helping to drive Detroit into the lead.
Lately, however, Goslin's batting mark
has dropped from around $50 to less
than 800, and the Goose hardly rates
the all-around class of either Moore
or Medwick, his left-field of rivals.
Whites development as 800 stick
er is reputed to be due largely to Cos
Inns coaching. The Tiger lead-off
man lis a fine ball hawk and has an
all-around edge on the basis of current
figures over his prospective rivals,
Orsatti of the Cards or watkins or
Leiber of the Giants in center field.
Fox, a 280 batsman. is a steady
workman in right field, but neither he
nor Rothrock. the big Cardinal Slugger,
ranks with OFT in hitting or defensive
skill,

who won only one game for his club

Only six Davenport players got on
the bases, two of them as far as
second and one as far as third.
Frank Lamanski, the Western loops
leading twirler, lost the game, the
seventh one of the championship
series, and his third game of the
seven, even though st. Joe did not
earn a run.

and indications now are that if the
Giants land in the world series, Wat
kins will do most of the heavy duty
between Moore and OFT. There's little
difference in Watkins and Leibers
hitting Latest averages show Wat
kins at PAS and Leiber at .238. but
either would be flanked by a pair of
$40 batsmen in Moore and OFT.
Moore, the celebrated first-ball hitter,
is the lead-off man for the Giants
and the kind of fellow who likes to
start trouble OFT is in the cleanup
role. Mighty Mel" struck number
of telling blows against the Senators
in the last world series, and he has
led the National League in runs batted
