THREE PITCHERS FAIL TO GAIN RED WIN BECAUSE OF ERRORS
BOSTON. July 8. Marquard was Manager Moran's choice to pitch tho opener at Boston Thursday and the Rube had a hard time of it, -with tha hard hitting Braves. He worked six rounds and retired In favor of Napier, who fared little better. Tho Reds started out strong, getting one run over in the first round, but put up a very poor exhibition in tho field that cost them the game. Five mispays were made by the men, al of them coming at a critical time, being instrumental in the scoring of
many runs. Donohe hurled the last round- and allowed the Braves three hits and one run, but made a good impression upon Manager Pat, and he may start him In a game some time soon. Manager Moran shifted his batting order, a move which came as quite a surprise to the players as well as the fans. He plans to use the present batting order for three or more games, win or lose.

BAKERS SECOND PLACE
The Bakers annexed two games from the Policemen in their doubleheader Thursday afternoon at Exhibition and went into second place. Both
games were hard fought battles. The first game going seven innings and the second game five innings. Dunham and Hartman pitched both games. Dunham had a little of the better of the arguments and allowed only eight hits during both contests. Hartman was touched rather hard, but the Bakers could not turn their hits into runs. At the end of the six Innings of the first game the score was at a deadlock at 3 all, and in the extra inning the Bakers sewed it up by scoring three runs on two singles, two walks and two errors. The Policemen failed to score in the extra round only three men facing Dunham. Score Lone Tally In the second encounter the first
round proved to be the only round any scoring could be done in. The Policemen scored their lone tally in the first on a walk, fielders choice and a double. The Bakers came back and scored four runs and sewed up the game in the first on five hits. Friday afternoon the Himes Dairy and the Press will play their scheduled game.

J Chips and Slips J Georges Carpentier expects to sail for dear old France, July 14. The American Association is- putting up a great race with position changes likely every day. In five days a while
ago Indianapolis dropped from first
place to sixth. On the same day Toledo in seventh had won more games than
the Hoosiers in sixth and only four
less than the league leaders of the
day, Kansas City, which held the lead by two points over Louisville. The next day Louisville won from St. Paul, which had led a few days before and the Colonels went into the lead. "They say," said an old Cub fan, "that there's nothing in a name, but I claim there is. How else do you explain the fact that the Cubs of today ain't the fighters they used to be? Take that old mob, for instance. There was Frank Chance and Joe Tinker and Artie Hofman and Jimmy Sheckard alj guys with regular names. But look at the Virgil Cheeves and so on. And these are the Cubs. It's a wonder Johnny Evers, who was one of the old time crew, ain't ashamed of himself." The Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh Pirates announced a trade on July 1 by which the Cubs get Pitchej Elmer Ponder for Outfielder Dave Robertson. The Cubs can use a pitcher; just what use Pittsburgh will find for Robertson is another story.
By FRAXK C. MEXKB The bird who attempted to discover the Fount of Perpetual Youth strove no harder than is Charlie White in his efforts to coax Benny Leonard into just one more mixup. "Give me Leonard just once more," is the pleading of the Chicago lightweight. "I busted that bird out of the ring a year ago and everyone admits that I should have won the title then. But I didn't. Luck, or something like
that saved Benny his crown. But if I get one more belt at him well, j that's all I will need." The White-Leonard battle in Benton Harbor on the Fourth of July, 1920, wrote into pugilism one of thtfse chapters that will be told and retold as long as the game lasts. For into that battle entered the element of "IF" in startling fashion. It was a no decision affair. White knew that his only chance of winning the coveted crown was to tear in with the first gong and continue to tear until he knocked or was knocked. Through the ficst four rounds he volleyed the champion with everything but the blue skies above and then came the fifth. Champ Goes Backward A right hander creashed into Leon
ard's body-r and a second or so later the faaous left hook of the Chicago warrior crashed solidly against the rim of Benny' jaw. The champion went backward through the ropes and out of the ring into the press box. Ed Smith, of Chicago, who was ref
eree, rushed to that part of the ring
lately vacated by Leonard. He start
ed to count. He had reached "five" when anger overcame him. For he saw Charlie Leonard, brother of the champion, pushing Benny back into the ring a plain violation of the rule3 which provide that when' a fighter is knocked out of the ring he must get back unassisted. Some folks say Smith aimed a punch or two at Charlie Leonard. Others say he began to swing his boot. But whatever Ed did, the fact always will remain that he stopped counting. Just how many precious seconds elapsed before Smith droned "6ix" will never be absolutely known. Boosts Brother Back Eut, at any rate, Charlie Leonard accomplished his purpose. He boosted his champion brother back within the ropes before the referee had offi
cially chanted "ten." And Benny, going immediately into a clinch, saved
himself from the savage assault which I White started and so saved himself; from annihilation. j After that White threw everything; he had into a new onslaught. He took j every wild chance possible to land a knockout, knowing that only a "sleep-i er" could win for him. And in the! ninth, one of those foolish chances I
sent him into a fearful Leonard swing. It landed flush on the target and White went down and lost the fight. Wants Another Crack "If I get another crack at Leonard over the decision route, I'll beat him
cure," declares White. "But for some odd reason Leonard seems mighty bashful when it comes to talking fight with me. He says he's confident he can whip me any time we start. Yet he won't tackle me. If it would be any sort of an object to him, I might be easily influenced to bet my share at even money against him that I win. That's fair enough, isn't it?" But, as White says, Leonard continues coy. He probably remembers that old left hook which White has
used to level one man after another. But, perhaps, the recollection of it may have grown a bit obscured by fall and he may agree to a return clash. And what a whale of a battle it should be. (Copyright By Kins f eature Syndicate, Inc.)

BAMBINO PERFORMS FOR ORPHAN KIDDIES
(By Associated Press) PITTSBURG, Pa., July 8. Babo Ruth, paying here yesterday with the New York Americans in an exhibition game with the Pittsburg Pirates, kept a promise to T. B. Doyle, prefect of
St. Paul's orphanage at Idewood, and visited the institution. Doyle formerly was prefect at St. Mary's industrial
school of Baltimore, where Ruth spent
his boyhood days. The famous ball
player was accompanied by "Rabbit" Maranville and Charley Grimm of the
Pirates.
Ruth went to bat before the eight hundred children at the orphanage and was fanned the first time up by Mike
Radanski, aged 12, crack pitcher of St. Paul's. Then Maranville took Mike's place and the home run king smashed the ball all over the lot, to
the delight of the fans.
More international conferences have
been held at The Hague and more
treaties and alliances arranged there
than in any other city in the world.
