MONDAY, AUGUST 24, 1914.

The downfall of the Giants—that is to say, their fall to their present modest and wholly reasonable percentage—is due, when the case is analyzed, to the batting slump of two mighty wallopers —Doyle and Merkle. These two husky geezers have, year after year, been pretty much tho backbone of the New York attack. They crash into a ball in a wholesome, hearty fashion they have been good for anything from .280 upward.

This year both Doyle and Merkle have been %vay under their proper mark. They haven't hit a little bit as they used to do, and their hitting has been specially shaky In the time of need. It is only a slump, of course—but it has retarded both these players so long that their averages look as if an elephant had stepped on them, and the fall of McGraw's team has, naturally, accompanied the fall of Larry and Fred. This is a light batting season. One .300-point man will help or spoil a team. New York, with Doyle and Merkle hitting weakly, is still on top —tied with the Braves. With either Doyle or Merkle batting up to his proper mark. New York would surely be live games ahead. With both of them pelting the pellet, the Giants would be almost as far ahead In the National league as the Athletics in the American.

The Cubs owe their troubles to the similar downfall of Schulte and Sweeney. These two goodly smitists haven't rapped within 70 or 80 points of their standard the Cubs have failed accordingly, and yet, even now, if the Chicago pair would come back to batting form their team could shove along ana press ahead. This batting, ladies and gents, is truly an awful and an onerous thing.

HeGraw« Driving Youngsters. McGraw's youngsters are no longer "just sitting on the bench to learn." lie is making them toil and hustle for further orders—batting up files, practicing hurling, running 'round and 'round the field.

TVith

the race in desperate straits,

with his pitching staff short of numbers and success, McGraw has waked up suddenly. Out of the cluster of young pitchers, he hopes to develop at lcnpt one fit to step In and help his veterans through the stress of *9 games yet to come. He also hopes to develop a batsman—many a young man, if caught early and turned from the error of his ways, may abjure this sinful pitching ana become a good, honest slugger, like Davy Robertson. So the

PIGSKIN MEN READY TO GET ON GRI

Practice Will be Under Way Within Two Weeks—First College Game Sept. 19.

Football calls are coming fast and thick. The big athletes of the pigskin •mho have been kicking the ball around all summer will soon be hurrying to the gridiron.

Sept. 19 will see the first game of the college season, and practice will be well under way everywhere before then.

The Carlisle Indians, as usual, will nuen. the reason, playing Albright collego. The following Wednesday Cornell will meet Urslnua, Harvard, Yale, Princeton and the other important elevens will not be far behind the upstaters in getting their elevens out or. tfie field for actual warfare. Practically every team in the country will be seen on the gridiron equipped for battle the Saturday following the Cor-r.eli-nrsinus game.

International games of more than average importance will mark the football season of 1914. Chief in importance of theEe battles is the game scheduled between Michigan and Harvard. This contest will be played at Cambridge the la«t Saturday in October. "Hurry-XJp" Yost has been drilling his men by proxy this summer in order to have them tuned up for the game. Each Michigan player was given a football when the Ann Arbor university closed laBt June and told to use It during the summer. Manv of the players have been working together in the summer engineering camp and at summer school in Ann Arbor.

Open ]Vew Plants.

Yale and Priuceton both expect to open their new athletic plants in the football season. The Tigers plan on throwing open the Palmer stadium for the Yale game the second Saturday of November. Yale and Harvard will meet the following Saturday, Nov. 21, on •which date the New Haven collegians plan on dedicating the new "bowl" which will have a seating capacity of 60,000. The Harvard-Princeton gams is scheduled for Cambridge the first Satday in November.

Tn October the premier elevens of the country will begin to meet foes worthy of their best efforts and the season will be at its height The schedule for the middle Saturday of Octobor Is typical rf the increasing activity. Carlisle plays Pittsburgh, Amherst meets Trinity, Princeton faces Lafayette, Chicago Tines up against the State University of lo^a, Oregon will oppose Washington otate, Wisconsin and Purdue clash and the United States Naval academy will establish a precedent by journeying to Philadelphia to play the University of Pennsylvania eleven.

Bis Games Follrw.

From that date on the big games follow rapidly. Saturday, Oct. 24, finds among other prominent contests Harvard vs. Pennsylvania. Cornell vs Brown Princeton vs. Dartmouth, Chicago vs. Purdue, Yale vs. Washington and Jefleison, Michigan vs. Syracuse, Pennsylvania State vs. Carlisle and Williams vs. Trinity. The final Saturday of the month will witness the biggest intersectional game of the season, when Michigan plays Harvard at Cambridge.

Other sections, however, will not be lacking in feature contests, for Cornell and Holy Cross play at Ithaca, Chicago and Wisconsin at Madison, Carlisle and Syracuse at Buffalo, Dartmouth and Amherst at Hanover, Princeton and Williams at Princeton. Notre Dame and Haskell Indians to North Dakota, Vanderbilt and Virginia at Nashvllie, tale and Colgate at New Haven and Pennsylvania and Swarthmore at Philadelphia.

BATTING SLUMP CAUSE OF GIANTS DOWNFALL

Failure of Doyle and Merkle to Hit at Natural Gait Costs McGraw's Team Many Close Games

r»?

Juveniles are breaking their necks out ihere in the glorius August sunshine, all eager to help McGraw to redeem the falling flag.

Mathewson is under a jinx—as severe a Jinx tin the reverse hoodoo he used to i.ut upon his foes. Instead of getting all the breaks of the game and beating teams that had outhit and outplayed New York, it all goes the other way—no matter how grandly Matty pitches he can not win, and the finer his pitching, apparently, the more certain the defeat. Marquard hasn't amounted to much since the great 21irining game. That must have put too much of a strain upon him, and he has shown little .strength and had little luck. Tesreau goes along very well, and isn't unlucky, but Tressie Is only one n?an, even though large enough for three. Demaree is a steady and consistent loser—wherefore the need for a new pitcher who can dliver is at once and plainly noticeable.

Don't Overlook Cubs and Cards. The rise of the Boston Braves and the parallel tumble of the Giants form a curious cluster of pulchritudinous performances. Only a few days ago, although Boston was playing great ball and rising rapidly, the margin seemed so great that there was small chance to completely chop it down. All the Giants, apparently, had to do was to hold steady and win half their games— Boston could not get past the defenses. Surely said the wisest critics, the Braves won't win all the time, New York won't lose more than half the time—therefore what's the use of arguing?

But the unexpected happened, as it sometimes duos. Boston won eight games out of the last ten, the defeats being slipped them by the Reds. N$w York dropped eight out of nine meanwhile, taking one off Pittsburgh as the only solace of misfortune. Of course, when such deeds were being done, one club rose and the other fell at a double scale—and now they are even up. Some record, this—some curious up-side-downside traveling.

The Cubs and Cardinals, too, have gained rapidly. They are at present closer to the Giants than when they started east a month ago, when all the base ball world waa torn up over the prospect that one or the other of these clubs that surely overhaul McGraw. Now they are right on Boston's heels, right within grabbing distance of the champions. And yet, such is the interest 'round the onrush of the Bostons, the Cubs and Cardinals are almost totally forgotten.

George Stallings has made baseball history by his remarkable feat in bringing the Boston Braves from the bottom of the list to the top. On July 18, only a little more than a month ago, the Bostons were in last place. They had already begun their sensational spurt, however, and the close of the following week found them in fourth place. Their rise during late July and August was rapid. Ten days ago they gave the Giants a stunning blow by beating them three straight on the champions' home grounds. McGraw's men have been slipping steadily ever since, while Boston has been tearing along over the western course in championship form.

The week just ended capped the climax of Giant retrogression, the leaders dropping two out of three games in Pittsburgh, and two to the Reds, following this up by taking a beating from Herzog's men in the third game of the series Sunday.

If the Giants, with their pitching corps demoralized and in the midst of a batting slump, do not takes a brace soon, they bid fair to be passed not only by the Bostons, but by either St. Louis or Chicago—perhaps both. Bach of these western teams is playing good ball and is close up.

SANTA MONICA, Cal., Aug. 24.—Joe Rivers, the pugilist, was arraigned before Judge Carrillo in police court, charged with speeding. This is the fourth time he has been before the same judge. His trial was set for September 9. Rivers denies that he was in the car at the time the offense was committed. He declared some on had the car without his permission and claims he does not know who it was. The last time Rivers was arraigned in police court here Judge Carrillo promised him a jail sentence If he was ever found guilty before him again.

Boehling May Never Twirl Another Game

WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.—According to the Washington club's physician, Southpaw Joe Boehling has pitched his last game of ball this year, and whether or not he will ever be able to twirl again depends upon the success of an operation to his left knee.

The southpaw hurt himself more than a month ago while sliding to home plate and has been handicapped ever since. A floating cartilage has developed and treatment similar to the operation of Catcher Henry two years ago as been ordered.

Puts Braves In the Pennant Race

JOHNNY EVEHS.

BOSTON, Aug. 24.—Last season Stallings' Braves finished the season In fifth place. This season, with practicall the same lineup, they are up at the top and fighting a hot fight for the rag. The difference In the lineup for the two seasons Is the acquisition of one man this present cummer. It would seem that this one man has something to do with the present high position of the Braves and their new spirit.

The one man is Johnny Evers. Ana that he has had a great deal to do with enlivening the Boston bunch is affirmed by all who observe. It was forecasted last winter when first the news was abroad that Evers would join the Braves that he would Inspire them with a much needed pep. Many predicted that with Johnny on the pay-roll the Boston team would have something to say In the settlement of the National league pennant. And these prognostications seem to have worked out pretty well.

Aside from his purely mechanical ball playing ability, Evers is one of the brainiest In the game. Stallings, the Boston chief, is unquestionably a wise and able manager, but he will admit if he grabs the pennant that he didn't do it all alone. Evers' wonderful baseball brain alone might be said to earn the handsome wage that Johnny is receiving. And with the speed and snap he shows afield he may well be called the greatest Investment the Boston club ever made. His acquisition made a serious pennant contender of a second division team.

Spencer Wishart, young Philadelphia sportsnfan and race driver, was killed Saturday afternoon when his car skidded Into a fence on the Elgin race course and turned turtle. He died trying to prove that he could drive faster on a rough stretch of dirt road in a Mercedes car than Bob Burman could in a Peugeot. It is a strange irony or fate that it should be a duel between the powers of a German and French car that Wishart lost his life.

Wishart is a young man. about 24 years of age and it seems hardly fair that he should die as the result of a mania for speed. Wishart did not drive for money. He was wealthy—so wealthy that he could afford to own his own racing cars and drove simply for the love of the game. He did not drive a certain car because the factory wished to prove the superiority of that car over others. He drove the car he thought would win in a long race. He was an amateur driver only because he

TERRE HAUTE TRIBUNE

BRAVES NOW SHARE LEAD WITH GIANTS

Reds Plunge National Eace Into Tie by Taking Third Straight From Champs, 3-2.

16 YEARS SINCE BOSTON WON FLAG. It Is sixteen years since Boston has won a National league baseball championship.

CINCINNATI, O., Aug. 24.—Manager MoGraw and his slipping, sliding, and near crestfallen Giants no longer are the sole owners of first place in the National league race. The erstwhile lowly Braves share the top round of the league ladder with their eastern leaders. All this happened Sunday as the result of the New Yorkers 'third straight defeat at the hands of Herzog's Reds, 3 to 2, while Stallings'- men were resting In Chicago preparatory to their series with the Cubs.

The march of the Bostonians, early season trailers and posted at 100 to 1 shots at one time, has been one of the most sensational in the history of major league baseball. The Braves started climbing about seven weeks ago, and since that time few defeats have marked their progress to their present position. Usually Stallings' men have lost on the same day as the Giants, so the setbacks have not been severe ones.

Six Hits Off Ames.

In Sunday's battle It was a case of Giant vs. ex-Giant, and the latter came through victor. 4.mes, who went to Cincinnati in the pre-season trade Involving Giants and Reds, was at his best, holding the McGrawites to six hits, spread over three innings. Tesreau, usually a strong card against Herrmann's gang, was clouted with much gusto, but sharp fielding cut off several runs.

Moran, the local outfielder sold to the Braves, helped his new pals just as much as if he were playing with them. With Gonzales on first base as the result of a single In the ninth, the center fielder smashed a long double, sending the catcher across with the winning counter. Two were down at the time. Moran left after the game to join Evers, Maranvllle, and others In Chicago.

WISHART'S AIDE MAY RECOVER.

ELGIN, IR, Aug. 24.—John C. Jenter, mechanician to Spencer Wishart, the automobile driver who was killed in the road race here Saturday, has a fighting chance for recovery, it was said at the hospital today. The accident which cost Wishart's life deprived Jenter of his right arm, and he was injured internally. Today there was signs of returning consciousness.

Thinks Well of Mordecai Brown

CHICAGO, Aug. 24.—Fielder Jones, new manager of the St. Louis Federals, it was announced today, declined to sanction the deal by which Mordecai Brown, his predecessor as manager, would come to the local Federal league club in exchange for Brennan and Fisk or McGuire, pitchers, offered by Manager Tinker. Jones took the stand that a pitcher of Brown's experience was worth more to his club than youngsters like Fisk and McGuire, or a veteran like Brennan not in the best of tha-De. Brown's Wish not to play on the team from the leadership of which he was deposed, probably will result in a trade with Buffalo or Brooklyn.

few Months Make Big Diff in Price

HASTINGS, Neb., Aug. 24.—Pitcher Dazzy Vance, aged 20, who was offered for sale by the Superior club of the Nebraska State league, 'together with the franchise and entire club early this season for $250 with no tafcers, has been sold by Jack Holland, of the St. Joseph Western league club, to the Pittsburgh Nationals for $5,000.

Disgusted at the offer made by Superior, Vance bought his release for $50, Joined the Hastings team and was almost Immediately sold to the St. Joseph club for $1,000.

Anything To Defeat Giants

CINCINNATI, O., Aug. 24.—The Boston National league cluo has purchased Herbert Moran, star outfielder of the Cincinnati Reds. The deal was officially announced by President Gaffney, of the Braves, late last night. Moran is considered one of the best outfielders In the National league, his hitting and base running being one of the features of the playing of the Reds. As soon as the sale was announced the fans Immediately started the talk that Herzog Is trying to strengthen the Braves in order that they oan beat out the Giants in the pennant fight.

Wagner Has Chance to Set Swat Record

Hans Wagner, the Pittsburgh National league baseball team shortstop, who recently made his three thousandth hit in seventeen years' play, probably will surpass the record of 3.047 hits registered bv Pop Anson in his tw-enty-two years of big league service.

Fed Pitcher Poisoned.

KANSAS CITY, Aug. 24.—Elmer Knetr.er, pitcher for the Pittsburgh Federal league club, was taken to a lo^al hospital today suffering from blood poisoning caused by an insect bite. Physicians say his condition is net dangerous.

Wishart Another Victim of Speed Mania

never drove for a salary. He had been in the game for years and had ariven in three Indianapolis races.

A bride of two months was at the Elgin race course and reached the side of her husband before he died. She was an Indianapolis girl and became acquainted w'ith Wishart during his stay in Indianapolis at the speedway races. She will long remember August 22. 1914.

It is needless to say that the race was not stopped. Death merely casts a gloom over an auto race and Ralph DePalma, himself known as a hard luck driver—pushed his way on to victory, repeating his performance of Friday. As a mark of respect a dinner that 'was to have been given the drivers in Chicago Saturday night was cancelled.

It is true that most of us enjoy an auto race. The element of danger in seeing high power cars go by at 90 and 100 miles an hour is what gives the thrill but after all Is said, does the result Justify the loss of a life.

SEVENTH ROUND FATAL TO CENTRAL CHAMPIONS

Terre-irs Break Through Rapids' Defense and Scoring Three Runs Cop, 3-2.

By Ralph H. White.

After passing up a raft of golden chances the Terre-irs got busy in the seventh inning of yesterday's clash with the Gee Raps and nosed out a triumph, 3 to 2. All three of the Terreir tallies were recorded in the fatal seventh and came with the enemy two credits to the good.

For five frames there was little to choose between the rival forces as both Madden and Higley hurled good ball. The Rapid southpaw, however, was wild as could be and was in constant danger and he was alflred lucky to escape with a whole skin as long as he did. An error of commission paved the way for a brace of Gee Rap markers in the fifth and it was not until two sessions later that the pack could break the ice despite numerous opportunities. "Dolly" Gray was the gent to start the attack, poling to right. Tommy

Sheetf&n, who has previously busted out a single and triple was next up. He appeared dangerous and Higley lost his nerve, passing the slugger. Kyle put down a perfect sacrifice which Reilly threw wide to first. Gray and Sheehan crossing and Andy romping to third. Higley was still rattled when Vann came up and wasted no time in hitting Jack in the ribs. That brought up Spalr, who cut a single over second, sending Kyle over with what proved to be the winning run.

They got one on in the ninth, put Madden was supreme and ended the argument by whiffing Rutherford, hitting in the pinch.

Madden, although found for seven hits, was better than Higley, who allowed but five, and Leonard would have escaped unscratched in the fifth but for an unfortunate break which enabled the Rapids to score a couple of runs. Higley Issued seven free tickets to first, -----lug. jjjm one occasion, ...e Terre-lr left-h but four. ,,Here's how it happened in the fifth: Madden hit Reilly with a wild one. Thompson lifted out to Gray, but Steil drew a ticket to first Minardo •cratched a hit In front of the pan, filling the bases. Castle rapped to Fisher, who had Reilly at the plate by not less than ten feet, but Vann failed to touch the plate and the runner was ruled safe. The slip had Its effect and Madden walked Higley, forcing In Stell. The next two batsmen were easy victims, showing how the break cost the Terre-irs' two runs.

Speaking of golden chances, the Terre-irs had openings In the first, second, third and fifth innings, but could not quite make it until the fatal seventh.

Higley threw seven balls at the start before he could get the pill over the pan.

Tommy Sheehan opened the third with a single and the fifth with a triple, but conld not reach the coveteed goal until the seventh.

Kyle put down two danfly sacrifice hits and both times got on by virtue of the error route.

Ted Anderson was purposely passed in the seventh with men on second and third. The stunt proved successful, Fisher and Madden Delng retired.

But 12 men faced Madden In the first four innings.

Nine Terre-irs batted in the fatal seventh.

Madden fanned three times and Higley twice.

Three fast double plays were negotiated by the Terre-irs. One killed off a runner at the plate.

Sport Comment

It is reported that Mord Brown has decided to stick with the St. Louis Feds. If he gets the dough, why not?

Eleven blows netted the Cards seven runs and victory over the Superbas, 7 to 3. That old 7-11 combination sure gets results.

An ninth inning Cincy rally plunged the Giants down to a 3 to 2 upset and, incidentally, into a tie with the Braves for first place. The Reds, like the Cards, secured a total of 11 hits.

That 14 to 0 defeat at the hands of the Waynes is about the worst suffered by the Vets this season. Stremmel Noel and Wachtel were the hurlers lambasted.

George Wheeler former Terre-ir now with the Dubuque Three-I league club, poled a single, double and triple vesterday in four times up. That's old time form.
