plished, 9 to 6, with Notables of Baseball Present.
Ed Walsh returned to the hurling lab yesterday and trimmed Boston's champions In one of the most sensational games of the year. The score was 2 to 1, and Walsh himself drove home the winning run in the tenth Inning. Whether the big spttball pitcher had
the "old stuff" on the ball or not is I
hard to say. Nevertheless, he turned out the kind of a game the fans love to see and if be hadn't been given horrible support he would have won In nine innings with a shutout. One thins; Is sure and that is that Big Ed hasn't lost any of his cunning while taking a vacation for himself. He didn't strike out a single batsman, which is something unusual for him and indicates the spitter wasn't breakingat Its best. He held the champions to seven scattered base hits, howeverf, and pitched himself out of at least a half doaen tight places. His famous balk motion to first base helped on two different ocaslons and his deliberate and careful work from start to finish was admirable.
Brooklyn. N. T.. July 15. Chicago's Cubs made the midsummer retroactive dedication of Ebbeta field one to be forgotten as fast as possible by defeating the representativen of Brooklyn, 9 to 6, In an unstable combat. In spite of the many Joy fixings and the pres
ence of several notable potentates of
the baseball world. -
From the time Vic Saler's tall fly dropped over the crest of the right field
fence in the second Inning until Jake Daubert's elevated fly sank safely into Phelan's mitt in the ninth there was as
much uncertainty surrounding the out

turning the first spade of dirt for Chicago's subway. Not that the game was
airtight. It was so lose you never
could tell what was going to happen.
The Trojans went along with a lot
of help from the home fellows and in
creased Vic Saler's second Inning tally
to five In five rounds. At that period the Dodgers had done so little to Larry

TRAP SHOOTING A
POPULAR SPORT
Hammond Country Club to
Install Range and Traps.
(BY SPIKE.)
Trap shooting, a popular out door
sport, is fast gaining a prominent place among the nlmrods of Lake county.
Years ago the trap and clay birds were considered a costly sport and few
thought they were able to take an ac
tlve part.
But today It Is different. Nearly
every city in the region has its gun club and some of the larger cities have a number ' of active clubs who shoot
every week. To the average person it
would be surprising to know that in Lake county alone, there are several
hundred people who take an active in terest in trap shooting every week.
They find It a healthy, interesting
and wholesome sport and the firm hold
it is assuming at tne present time, in a
short time trap shooting will be one
of the prominent sports of the day.
The Hammond Country club who has
one of the finest golf courses in the state is planning to interest its members in trap shooting and In the near future will build a range large enough to install four traps. Hammond has two other active gun clubs as also has Gary, Crown Point and Lowell.
