Springfield at Ft Wayne (2). Dayton at Peoria, (2). By DON WARFEL Wo may not lose Wednesday's game. At least one man can stop the Quakers' losing streak. He is the Weatherman. In the opener -with Grand Rapids Tuesday afternoon on the home lot the Quakers lost, through the brilliant work of Carpenter, and a one round clouting bee, 4 to 1. Had the boys failed to get to Lefty's slants in that one round, the game would have ended with eight and a half Innings with the score 1 to 0, Richmond. The Quakers' run was purely accidental. Reilley, who seemed to be the only man able to find Carpenter's slants, singled in the sixth. Donica popped out to Mathes who tried to catch Reilley off the initial corner. Mathes threw wild and the ball rolled Into the Quaker dugout It was out of sight so Arch trotted around to the third corner. Essick Makes Kick. Essick made a kick on the Quaker run and filed a protest on the game, for as Carpenter was winding up, Reilley started down the path and the ball slipped out of the pitcher's hand, rolling almost to the plate. It was a balk, and Reilley scored. But there was that one big round, and the Quakers lost through the results It produced. Miller started the second with a triple, and when Alcock finished the hitting with a single, the fourth man had crossed the pan. Heinle Jantzen, who might be called the utility man of the league, pulled two pretty hits in the second and third. Heinle formerly had a habit of hitting high ones far out Into the gardens, but he has changed his habit, and two pop tips that went into right field dropped safely on both attempts. ' Heinie Nips It. He tried sending another to left In the sixth, but Donica, who was covering that garden like the roof covers the grand stand, nipped the ball and Heinle returned to the bench. Donica's playing was one of the features of tie game. Harry was all over the lot and trapped six high ones,three of them on very difficult chances. Grand Rapids' line-up was somewhat changed from that of the former visit here. Two of the regular infielders are laid up for the rest of the season, and Mathes, Edington, Taunehill and . Jantzen are in positions on the team for the first time here. In the Majors National League. At New York R. H. E.

Charles L. (Buck) Herzog was born at Baltimore, July 9, 1883, and played his first baseball in organized ranks with York and Reading in the TrlState League, after graduating from the University of Maryland. He started out as a third baseman, but has played every position around the edge of the infield except first base. He first came to the Giants in 1908, but was used as a substitute and got into fifty-nine games. The following year he played through the Spring training games with McGraw's club and Bhowed so much aggressive spirit that "Mugsy" kept him ail season. In 1910 he went to Boston, and continued with the Braves until July of 1911, when McGraw traded Gowdy and Bridwell for him. He stuck with New York until 1914 and was transferred to Cincinnati in the Besher deal. The following year he was made manager of the Reds and continued in that capacity ' until July . 20, 1916, when McGraw pulled off the big dear which sent Mathewson to "Cincy" and brought the veteran Herzog back into the Giant fold. Having disposed of Larry Doyle, McGraw had to have a second baseman, and Herzog was assigned to the keystone sack. Though he had spent six years previously on the other side of the diamond, playing short and third, "Buck" soon brushed up on the job, and this season finds him playing second with the skill of a finished artist, . ,

CLUB STARS TO PLAY IN GAME WITHJjUAKERS Weeghman Orders Mitchell to Send Regular Lineup Here Aug. 30.

President Weeghman, of the Chi cago Cubs, has ordered Manager Fred Mitchell to send his regular lineup to Richmond on August 30. That means that such stars as Larry Doyle, Fred Merkle, Cy Williams, Leslie Mann, Pete Kilduff. Max Flack, "Pickles" Dillhoefer, "Rowdy" Elliott and others will be seen in action against the local Central League team. Fred Mitchell, who has been called the "Miracle Man" of the National League, will personally pilot the club here from Brooklyn where the Cubs end-their inal eastern invasion for this year. Weeghman to Attend President Weeghman, a product of Richmond, who left here a boy seeking his fortune and found it in the restaurant business in Chicago, will come on from Chicago accompanied by a number of his most intimate friends and business associates, to attend the game. Unless the leader of the Cubs makes a switch in his batting order between now and the day of the exhibition game the local fans will see Max Flack, the lead off man and protecting the right field garden. Flack has shown vast improvement this season under the instructions of Mitchell. The fact that Flack is one of the smallest, as well as one of the fastest athletes in the National League, makes him an admirable leadoff hitter. Recently Mitchell compelled Flack to use a heavier bat as well as much shorter than he had been using. This switch caused Max to hit to left field as often as he does to right, thus breaking up the defense of the opponent and in the games he has played since changing his style at the plate he has batted over .400 and promises to be up among the .300 hitters at the close of the season. Flack bats and throws left handed. Batting Order for Game The following is the batting order of the Cubs in the exhibition game here, unless some .accident necessitates a change: Flack, rf. Mann, If. Doyle, 2b. Merkle, lb. Williams, cf. Deal, 3b. Kilduff, ss. Dillhoefer, Elliott, c. Prendergast, Aldridge, p.
