BRAVES DOOMED WITH EVERS OUT FOR SEASON

4 A /. Fans Come to Conclusion That "Dynamo John" Was Real Pep Behind Champions*,,

ST. LOUIS, Mo., June 33.—Most ardent admirers of the Boston Braves have come to the conclusion that John Dynamo Bvers was the real pep behind the world's champions. On this premise the lateat development, which scarcely can be termed a rumor, seems to knock Boston's hopes for a pennant higher than a kite.

While in St. Louis Boston players confirmed the opinions vouchsafed recently by members of other N. L. teams, that there is little hope of Bvers getting into the game this season.

During the winter Johnnie was stricken with pneumonia and doctors for a time despaired of his recovery. A close glimpse of John's face shows how close he was to the Great Divide. His face is haggard, drawn, his eyes listless and the energy which won him fame seemed absolutely gone.

Then the ankle, injured early In the season, has not recovered. All in all It looks bad.

Charlie Deal this spring paid a tribute to Evers. Charlie said people could talk of Stallings as a "miracle man" all they wanted, but that Evers was the life of the team. Bvers, he said, was the man who rode the Braves, infielders and outfielders, into a pennant. "He had 'em all scared to death," said Deal. "Every time a man pulled anything that looked like a bone play Evers would be on the offender's neck good and hard. They were more afraid of Evers than they were of Stallings and especially as he was right on the field and would 'call' the offenders as soon as the offense was committed."

The linal elimination trials closed with sundown last night, Ralph Millford's Special and the Ogren, a post entry, being the last of ft field of tc meet the requirements as to speed demanded by the management. Seven cars were eliminated or withdrawn. They were Ralph De Palma'# Mercedes, Barney Oldfield's Bugatti, John Mais' Mais, a second Mulford Special and Brown's Du Chesneau, which were withdrawn: Frajik Zuoker's Borwyn Si-ecial, which failed to qualify, and Curl Limber#** Sunbeam, which was not fast enough, to beat the timcB of the other three English cars entered in the race.

Stnvt in Rank* of Foir.

The rule having been adopted whereby cars will start in ranks of four, the fastest car having the pole in the first row, the second fastest car second position In the first lank, and so on, it now is practically certain that th« cars will be alignod for the race &4 follows:

Fifth row—Baboock, Peugeot fpole) J. Cooper, Sebring Chandler, Ogren Hughes, l?\ R. 1*.

Sixth row—Orr, Maxwell («o3«) Devore, F. R. P. Mulford, Mulford Special.

Resta, by averaging 1101 miles an hour for his trial lap, taken myre than a week ago, dominates the field.

Stiitu Cars Mo* Conwifttent. For consistency the Stutz still remain the choice of the Held, the throe Indianapolis entries running with .15 of a second of each other In their separate trial*. Their 6turdy qualities earned them the right to start three abroiist in the first row, which will establish a precedent in speedway racing, Naxt to ihe Stutz the Maxwell team sparkles from a consistency standpoint with two cars.

In all, eight car* have shown a capability of If.t miles an hour cr better, twelve did better than 90 mile? an hour, two better than Sf" miles an hour, De Palrna'8 vidc-rtous time in the recent Indianapolis race, and only on« fell bolow—Ralph Mulford, whose unprepared car averaged 86 miles nn hour for a lap.
