4TH STRAIGHT DEFEAT

IS HANDED TO REDS AT POLO GROUNDS NEW YORK, May 18 The Reds put up an awful struggle to avoid their fourth straight defeat at the hands of the Giants on the Polo grounds Tuesday afternoon but failed in the attempt, dropping the game by the score of 4 to 3 in 11 rounds of fast baseball. Rixey was unable to take his turn on the hill due to illness and Napier was sent in to check the losing spell. He was doing very well but could not stop the terrific hitting of Walker, centerfielder for the Giants. The centerfielder cracked out a double, triple and a homer in four trips to the bat and each of his hits were good for a Giant tally. His homer came in the last half of the eleventh with no one out. . Hit Barnes Hard The' Reds hit Jess Barnes, who was Manager McGraw's selection for the final game, very hard but without very much effect, the hits being well scattered. It was a pitcher's battle from start to finish for both teams played wonderfully fast ball on the. green and it was one of the finest and closest contests of the season. Burns' fielding in left field was easily, the feature of the game. He saved the game more than one time for the Giants. His catches of two hard drives off the bat of Napier were sensational and he knocked down three long drives which looked good for extra bases. The score

Berriie Neis Says Sisler Aids By PRANK G. MENKE The golfer smites the gutta perch. The boxer slams the bag, The diamond star drives horsehides far, To win a pennant rag. The tennis crack swats rubber .balls. The bowler hits the pins. In Sportdom's realms it's hit hit hard 'Cause hardest hitting wins, Bernie Neis, outfielder for Brooklyn, who has displayed a remarkable form reversal this season claims it's all due to coaching which he received from George Sisler while the Dodgers and Browns were loitering in New Orleans this spring. "Sisler told me that I was one of the .fastest fellows he ever saw but that I did'nt get the most out of my speed," relates Neis. "He told me that I didn't take long enough lead off I nf first anri that T rtlHn't n.-atrh th a opposing players' signals for a tip-off as to whether or hot they were going to try to flag me. "Sisler told me to watch the pitcher above everyone else. Said the pitcher was the fellow I'd have to steal the base on. He told me that each one had a peculiarity which would tip ma off, if I watched closely, as to whether or not he was going to try to catch me napping off the bag. "I've taken Sisler's tip and I'm glad about it." So are the Brooklyn fans, for this season Neis has been a base running wonder and if he maintains his base thieving clip through the year he'll be j the champion in his line. ' FORETHOUGHT Whenever Georges Carpentier. while training lor a bout, is working at the nullov wirht nr minhln a at the pulley weights or punching a bag, he has one of his handlers back of him fanning briskly. "The reason," explains the Freachman, "is to accustom myself to draughts which might strike me while I am in a fight in the open air."MAX WAS SPEECHLESS. Max Carey approached Barney Dreyfuss, owner of the Pirates, not so long ago and said: "How about a little raise?'' "What for?" asked Barney. "Well, don't overlook the tact that I'm one of the best base stealers in the major leagues," answered Max. Yes, that's so," mused Barney. "But I didn't see you stealing first base very much last season." BOYS! PAGE JEM MACE!
