In thdir race to capture the Manufacturers’ league pennant, Holcomb & Hoke luayed a consistent game that has rarely been equaled in the city. Only two games were dropped during the entire season and most of the were annexed by a large margin of runs. Tha team as it is now organired is essentially the same as that which started the season early in the spring. This team was recruited entirely from an organization not so large as the ethers taking part in the city championship combat. There were no stars of any magnitude among the material. The team as It was finally developed was composed entirely of good, consistent •tall players, who could be counted on to be there with the goods day in and day out. Early in the season work was started end from the start special emphasis was laid on team work and today co-ordi-nation not only in the field, but on the base paths has teen developed to a high point. Great care has been taken to develop all around baseball players: the lineup can be shifted to accommodate any emergency and the loss of any particular player through' accident does not seriously cripple the team. A large part of the success gained by Holcomb & Hoke is due to the wholehearted support given the team by their rooters. The team is backed by a crowd of 100 per cent baseball enthusiasts. Good support from the bleachers has enabled Holcomb & Hoke to bring home many a contest. Jack Sweeney has organized the following group of south side youngsters to fly the Greenlawn Fed banner for the remainder of the season: Costello, Dalton. Hackett. Moore, Lynch, Scanlon, ,T. Kelly, R. and Schauneseey. The Feds desire games with the •'best clubs in the 14-year-old class. For games call Prospect 9376.

Cleveland Proves Its Qualities by Winning Big Series From Yanks

The fast going Cleveland Indians were still traveling pennantward today. De spite the dope that the physical end moral loss of Chapman would slow up the Speakerites. the old bus rambled right along yesterday, taking a 3 to 2 victory from the Yanks and maktng 1t two out of three for the series, indicating Manager Speaker has an ample supply of usable parts for emergencies. The win put the Clevelanders another thin slice ahead of the close pacing White Sox, who had a day off. Clubs In both leagues were ending their brief vacation series today and six games were on the program. With the White Sox playing at Philadelphia, the Gleason crew bid fair to regain the loss of yesterday, while Chapman's teammates attended his funeral in Cleveland.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20. RICKARD AND THE GARDEN. Well, New York is on the map at last. Tex Rickard, who has a ten-year lease on Madison Square Garden, is getting ready to make our city a champion without a challenger. In a talk at the Biltmore Tex said that he would bid for all of the big fights; all of the big wrestling matches: ail of the big bike races; all of the nig tennis matches; all of the track meets and, beside that, all of the swimming meets, for he Intends building a tank In the garden that will have as a rival only the Atlantic ocean. Rickard isn't boastful, but hopeful. There never was much bluster about the western promoter. He just does things and fells us about them afterward. Hd remarked with a smile when called upon to make a speech at the dinner: "You newspaper men have made mo think that I’m a big promoter, and now that I’ve got myself thinking darned if I’m not going to try to live up to that reputation." MAY BE BOXING IN CALIFORNIA. A wire from the coast Informs us that the California post of the American legion intends petitioning the legislature to allow fifteen-round bouts with a decision. They say that once the legislature gives the voters a chance they think it a cinch to go through. There are 47,000 members of the American legion in California and they intend working like beavers for the bill. THAM WITH PEEVED. Some years ago while on a toqr. Tham Lartgford stopped off at a small town for a match. The tnan he was to box was a waiter and quite nifty with his dukes He had a big following, having cleaned up seven or eight huskies in that rart of the country. The big sports got to Tbam and had him agree to let the waiter stay eight rounds, then box again in a nearby town. Tbam agreed, so they met. The waiter knowing that he was to go the full eight rounds was quite cocky. Tham pulled punches, missed others and let the waiter be quite mussy. In the fourth round the waiter somehow or other got the idea that he could lick Tham on the square, and started to sock hard. Ho busted Tham six or seven times before the Tar Baby got jerry to himself. My, but Tham got sore; He went to his corner at the end of the fourth with a bloody nose and a bloodshot eye. He came up for the fifth with blood tn

Gibson*s Return to Pirates Puts Club in Contender Class Combined Efforts of Veteran and Whitted Are Making Things Hum.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20. —When George Gibson returned from the International league, to the National and took over the management of the Pirates, an old-tlm<* era in Pittsburg baseball began to allow rejuvenation. The man who did the bulk of the work behind the bat during the long term o* years Fred Clarke managed the team and who stuck along while Jimmy Callahan piloted the team, seems to be the only one of several tried out in Pittsburg who has the ability to put across a penuai.B contender. EVEIIS GIVES GIBSON CREDIT. John Bvers, wbo virtually is in charge of the Giants these days, tritely expresseu it a short time ago when he remarked that George Gibson and George Whlttod constitute a combination in Pittsburg that speaks nothing soft for any bait club, even though the Giants have man*

aged to make the Pirate* play dead mo#t of the season. Glbaon, he contended, possesses that trait so rarely found among big league managers—che ability to co-ordinate every factor In a club until it works perfectly at the direction of the manager. Thera Isn’t a sore spot on the Pittsburg club. Every member of the famous old team is putting his heart into what he does and is striving to do it Gibson’s way. WHITTED HAS FIGHTINjJ SPIRIT. Whltted’a worth to the team, according to Evers, lies in the fact that he Is one of those rare birds—a fighter who never knows when he is licked. "Give me two Whitteds on a basettSdl club," remarked the Trojan, “and I’ll find the rest of the players to go with them and come mighty close to winning the pennant.” Wbltted's influence with other players may be found In the fact that he can play practically any position on a ball club and do a good job of It. He Is generally looked upon as an outfielder, but with Pittsburg he has played as many games in the infield as he has at any other post. He recently has been sojourning at third base, but he also had handled chances at first and second, In addition to doing an outfield beat occasionally. Whitted was a member of the Brayes of 1914 when they sensationally won a pennanf and a world's championship. So was Brers. So John undoubtedly knows whereof he speaks when he mentions the nerve of his former clubmato. Gibson was beheaded by Hugo Bezdek

when that football gentleman undertook to mould a team for Barny Dreyfuss. John McGraw didn’t waste many minutes seizing upon the wandering catcher and signed him to coach the Giant pitchers, a very wise move in the estimation of many, for it was he who fi.iaMy taught Ferd Schupp that curves can be thrown with accuracy Schupp was larg%y In strumental In the Giants’ 1917 pennant conquest. Later Gibby got a chance to do duty as a manager in thp International league and McGraw. following an old-time custom, gave the veteran Lis release. Gibson's success as a leader In the International started Barney Dreyfuss to thinking when ho an<\ Hugo had a little falling out and the result was that Gibson has returned to his first love to lead It to another pennant if such a thing Is possible. And, strangely. Babe Adams, another Pittsburg old-timer, is rattling his bones most successfully about the league under Gibb’s direction. HASN’T STOPPED YET.The Louisville club, hard up for pitchers as it is, might make note of the fact that Tom Gallagher, released to Birmingham in the spring, is going better apparently every time out and is rated one of the best pitchers in tho Southern league nowadays. • NOT SO BAD. What a grand and glorious feeling for the Ontario basebal! fans—the morning they awoke and found the four Canadian teams making up the first division of the Michigan-Ontario league circuit.
