ROTARY HEFTIES LOSE COMPOSURE, GAME AND TONNAGE Lost! About fifty or seventy-five pounds. No reward will be paid for the recovery of the above, which were lost Thursday night at Exhibition park by the members of the Big Stiffs' baseball

nine of the Rotary club. Incidentally, Phil Twice took his Whippets and gathered in the game, 11 to . In the first inning, before Elmer Eggemeyer's Hefties felt the weight of their avoirdupois, they managed to hold Twlgg's speedsters to a two-run score, but after that it started in the second, and lasted through three rounds, with never a chance for the Hefts, a final inning rally made things look rather doubtful for the Whippets, and the fat men brought the score from two to six runs. Esssmeyer Steps on Shoestring Hill started on the mound for the Hefties but Elmer Eggemeyer, at short for his team, stepped on his shoestring, and allowed a double and a triple for two runs in the first. In the second inning, the shoestring again bothered; Bullerdick, in left field, became lost so far from his teammates, and Thomason made his second mighty swat, a circle bingie, with two on. A pair of hits by Elmer and Rohe, and a strikeout, closed tho inning for the Whippets, with four runs. The Hefties had their Inning closed before they started, for Wilson had them beaten to a fraztle. and bis curves were too deep a mystery for Eggemeyer's men to uncover. Goldflnger featured the fielding in the third inning, when he made a long run of fifteen feet, for a fly and caught it! This was unable to stop the mighty onrush of the Whippets, who scored four more In this round. Again the Hefties took the field without a run, although Eggemeyer had sufficiently recovered from bis shoestring trouble to beat out an infield grounder. Hefties Stage Rally. The Hefts' mighty round came In the first half of the fifth. Hill started with a rush and a triple, and Scoble walked. A single, a triple and another single, by Goldflnger, Todd and

Beck, scored four runs, but someono yelled lunch, and the game was over. Aside from Wilson's stick work, all honors went to Manager Twigg of the Whippets, his interest in the team never lagging, and his pep enthusing his entire crowd. Hefty honors were evenly dlv'ded between Goldflnger. for his difficult two handed catch, Bullerdick. for his ability to chase flies back to the fence, and Beck, for his two hits in three chances. Thorcason was the main stick artist for the Whippets, getting a triple and two home runs in three chances.

Baker Passes The Buck Again; Gives Garry Cravath Toughest Job Open in Baseball World

By N. E. BROWN. Garry Cravath, for years the slugging outfielder of the Phillies, is the newest big league manager. Cravath has agreed to take a chance managing the Phils. As he wires stated a few days ago, be succeeds Jack Combs. All we have to say about the appointment is that we wish him good luck. He is working for the most erratic and cold-blooded head in the game. Baker is rapidly making his club and himself a Joke by the way he fires managers. We had to pinch ourselves when William F. decided to turn Pat Moran loose. It was Moran who made his team a winner in 1915. He was poj ular with the fans and the playese. Baker sold the team's stars under Pat's nose. Moran was making the most of the material he had. But one day it was announced he had resigned. Then Baker signed Jack Coombs, veteran hurler, who helped Connie Mack's White Elephants write baseball history. Baker announced that Coombs would bo given "every opportunity" to make the team a success. Coombs went to work with the same thoroughness he had applied to pitching

One incident he cites is typical of

the conditions Baker imposes on his managers and players. On the last western trip of the team the jinx got busy with the club

and several of the players were crippled by spike wounds, etc Twenty-

eight dollars were spent for tape and

bandages to bind up the wounds so the players or most of them could

stay in the game.

When the team returned home Baker told Coombs the players would have to rav for their own tape in

the future. Coombs says.

Coombs tells how he often pointed out the weak spots in his club and

suggested ways of strengthening it, but not one of his suggestions was carried out. It is known by everyone that Baker made no attempt to bolster the club 6ince he disposed of Alexander, Killifer, Paskert and one or two other Btars. The fans became disgusted with the

club when Baker got rid of Jloran. Had Baker helped Coombs, the ex-

INDIANAPOLIS NOT TO APPEAR; DAYTON DELGOS MAY GOME

Announcement that the game with the Indianapolis club of the Indiana State league, scheduled here for next Sunday had been cancelled, marks the beginning of the end of the league, according to Elmer Eggemeyer, manager of the Richmond club. Differences over the financial arrangements between the clubs was the cause of the game being cancelled. Efforts are now being made by Eggemeyer to book the Dayton Delcos for a game here next Sunday. The Delcos are one of the fastest aggregations in Ohio, and have been taking all of their games this season. Promises for a real game are made, if this team can be secured.

Reds Half Game Ahead, But Behind In Percentage Where are the Reds in this National

League race? They have won three more games and lost two more games than the Giants, yet the chesty

Aictirawites still are leading tne parade. What's wrong here? Just figures. Actually, the Reds are a half game ahead of the Giants, but you can't monkey with the figures. The dope shows that the Giants have played five games fewer than the Reds, and it so happens that the more games played by a team the smaller the gain in percentage. Now here's a tunny wrinkle of the figures. The Reds are seven and one-half games ahead of the Cubs, who are fn third place, and the Giants are only seven games ahead of the Cubs. And yet the Giants are first in the National League race and the Reds second:

Made-Overs Won't Do This Summer

No! dear lady it won't do. You can fuss ell you like with your 1918 wardrobe but you need some new clothes. "Made-overs' won't fit the 1919 program, because: Tight sleeves were en vogue last Summer, while "bell" sleeves will be in fashion this year. As the latter are shorter, you'll need longer gloves to go with them last year's one-button gloves won't do at all. Skirts are also much smaller this than last year looks as though the mincing walk had come to stay awhile. If you can't walk, "slit "em!" that's what many well-dressed women in Newport and Atlantic City are planning to do. Tulle and chiffon are again fashionable and this year's colors and shades are new and in a bewildering variety. Last year's colors well, they just won't do.

Feathers are indicated. Happily your good feathers, madam, can be dyed or renovated and you can make a saving from which you may buy one of those fetching horse-hair hats. Honesdy, now aren't you glad we gave you all these excuses to buy some new and pretty things for this Summer's home and vacation wear? For you know that the summers of ' 1 7 i i n

ana i o were ""lean" yesars for replenishing wardrobes patriotic women were too busy doing warwork to bother about new clothes

Well that's all over and it's patriotic now for alert, progressive, prosperous Americans to look the part! If our women folks will set a good example the men will soon follow and the Summer of 1919 be bright and gay in every way. Please don't say. ladies, that you don't know just what to buy to look your prettiest this Summer because FASHION. VALUE and PRICE are all
