Big Gatherings View
Opening owl TiIts
In Three Cities
BY JACK HANn
Associated Press Sports Writer.

Night baseball's first 1914 turn
outs totaling 58,078 for three games
could be taken today as proof that
the national pastime is strictly an
after-dark and Sunday business in
wartime.
Pittsburgh's crowd of 23,0ll last
night more than doubled the BUGS
largest previous throng this season,
and Washington attracted 19,756
customers with 1871 present at
Cincinnati.
The five day games, featuring
similar openings of intersectional
series, drew only 19,414 or per
game average of 1888 as compared
to 1889 under the lights.
Although the night games had the
advantage of being the first of the
year and attendance is expected to
shrink under steady diet, still
club owners quite likely gave seri-
Gus thought today to the possibility
of the majors following Washing
tons example with Monday
ugh-Saturday "owl" schedule
in future years.
All Home Clubs Victorious.
Actual night results were over
shadowed by the encouraging crowds
but all the home teams won to make
1t perfect for the moguls.
Bucky Walters made sure his
200th start for Cincinnati would be
on the right side of the book by
driving in Eddie Miller to break a
tie in the ninth and beat the New
York Giants, 3 to Q. In five starts
Walters has pitched five complete
games, won four, including two
shutouts, yielded runs and ~ hits
in 40 innings.
Jim Russelrs double, scoring John
ny Barrett and Frank Zak. was the
big blow in Pittsburgh's three-run
squirt in the eighth for a 40 nod
over Boston.
Tigers End Yank Streak.
In the afternoon the Yankees six
game winning streak was snapped
by Detroit, AZ, as Paul Dizzy
Trout, scattered seven safeties and
weighed in with three singles in the
Tigers total of 13 of Ernie Bonham.
Luke Hamlin broke into the win
column with neat five-hit shutout
job against Chicago as the Athletics
hammered out Is blows for a 90
verdict.
Cleveland's Mel Harder hit the
200-win mark of his major league
career, although Specs Klieman had
to relieve in the eighth of As tri-
umph over the Boston Red Sox.
. Morton Cooper found his stuff
again and pitched the Cardinals to
