FORMER EAGLE DROPS BIRDS SUNDAY, 6-1; GRAYS CRACK HURLER

By R. R.iREID CAMBRIDGE CITY, Sept. 18. A i curve ball delivery completely baffled the Richmond Eagles la the game with !the Cambridge Graj'3 here Sunday aftenjpon and the home club came to the front early to ,win the ninth encounter between the two teams. "Spike" Flaherty, who once had a brief try-out with the Eagles, was almost invincible before the Eagle batters and had his drop ball working to perfection all the way until the ninth frame when the Bird batters took two Eingles, which made the total number ; of hits off the southpaw for the game , amount to only four. It was the pitcher who did the trick, there was no ' other alibi. - j Imported Hurler Cracks On the other hand, the hurler for the Eagles was directly responsible for the slip on foreign territory after the remarkable showing of the lodge team. The pitcher going under the name of Jones, who hurled for Liberty against the Eagles in one of the games during ' the Wayne county fair, was 'engaged for the game at Cambridge, but he did not fair so good agains the Grays as he did against the Eagles. Ritzgibbons led-off with a single for the Birds on the first ball pitched, but the runner died on base after he had been sacrificed along by Logan. Run Forced In Cambridge had better luck In the opening of their half of the second when Knot singled to left. Reddinghaus attempted to sacrifice, but was safe on an error by Jones. Runnels then forced Knott at third and was safe at first, Reddinghaus going to second. Hunt walked and the downfall of Jones was apparent. Strickler fanned for the second of the three necessary outs, but Flaherty walked, forcing in a run. Diffenderfer then cleared third and second of runners with a clean single to left. It was enough to win the game, but the fans called for a hit by Winters, who hit to short for the final out. Eagles Given Tally The big round was over and the game was won. The Birds were presented with a run in the fourth by Flaherty, who walked two men in this round, forcing in the only Bird tally. Minner had gained first on an error by Flaherty. Knight was then laid out by a hard pitched ball, which hit him on the back of the head. After 10 minutes, he was revived, but Carl Run nels took first base to run for him. Prospects looked bright for some Eagle tallies, but they could not hit the offerings of Flaherty. Byrkett walked, filling the bases. Eubanks "struck out. Henges walked and the run was forced in. Hubbard struck out, for the second down. Jones was the last to bite the dust at the hands of Flaherty, giving the latter a trio of strike-outs for the Inning. The Eagles had men on bases several other innings, but were absolutely helpless at trying to connect with the fast dropping ball of which Flaherty had perfect control. Two Triples in Eighth To top things off, the Grays hit Jones hard in their half of the eighth and cast aside any possible chance of an Eagle victory. Long flied out to Logan for the irst one. Knott then hit a hard fly ball to left, which looked like a sure homer, but Eubanks was playing far back to the fence for him and retrieved the ball to the infield to hold Knott at third. Reddinghaus hit to short, but Minner made a neat throw to the plate and cut off Knott. Runnels then tripled to center, scoring Reddinghaus. Hunt scored Runnels on a clean single to left. It was a Texas leaguer, neatly placed where no hands could get to it. Stickler retired the side by hitting to Henges, who made a nice assist to Byrkett at first. No excuse for losing the game whatever just a case of being unable to hit the old apple. Eagles. AB R H PO A Fitzgibbons. rf 4 0 2 0 1 R 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 J.

The two teams went the same distance in their previous meeting and the game ended by the same count. Fans enjoyed the game as they did the first encounter, but only wished that the decision would have been the other way. Both pitchers performed well fiuring the 10 innings, with the Muncie man having a slight edge over Alvey. Score: R. H. E.

THE

Australian Bathers Defy Types of Man-Eating Fish

By KHAJiK G. MEXKE SYDNEY, Australia, Sept. 18. Sharks, of the man eating species, infest the waters of the Australian coast yet surf bathing is the one universal sport of summer time. Five bathers were torn to pieces and eaten by sharks of the coast here last year, yet the Australians' love for the sea water is Buch that fear of the killing fish never forced a single bather to forsake the waters. There are 21 beaches In and around Sydney. And during the height of summer-time here (which means December, January and February) every beach is packed and the waters are crowded with bathers. It was estimated that on one hot summer's day last year nearly 300,000 of this town's population of about 1,00,000 was in bathing. The beach slopes- away gradually In some of the little bays here; at others it's an "over the head depth" a dozen feet or so from shore. It was on one of these beaches, where a man, no more than 15 or 20 feet from the shore, was eaten by a shark six or eight months ago. Earns First Laurels. Here in Sydney, Annette Kellerman learned to swim and in this same town aquatic feats became bo marvelous as to gain for her world-wide fame. Up to her. day, Annette was the greatest woman swimmer of Australia. But in the years since then other Australian girls have come to the fore and performed in a way to overshadow the greatness of the girl, who was acclaimed possessor of "the most beautiful figure in the world."A few years ago Fannie Durack burst within the glare of the spotlight rays by winning the woman's swimming championship of the Antipodes. She endured for a while at the crest, but since then has been dethroned. And her conquerors, in turn, have been deposed by younger and more wonderful swimmers. Just now Mina Wylie is rated as the How They Stand National League.

RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

best all around woman swimmer of Australia. Elsie Vonning, who lives in the state of Queensland, is another phenom. And so is Lily Beaurepaire, of Victoria. Australian Hero. The brother of Miss Beaurepaire Frank is not only a swlmmine cham pion, but alBo one fo Australia's heroes. lor Beaurepaire and another power ful swimmer Jack Chalmers risked their lives eight months or so ago in an effort to save a man from sharks. They were on the beach when they heard his cries about 150 or 200 feet out. They dashed into the surf and swam to him. When they arrived, one shark already had torn the man almost to pieces and the water swarmed with other sharks, drawn to' the scene by the scent of human blood. Beaurepaire and Chalmers practically tore from the jaws of the shark what was left of the man, and then, with other sharks trailing them and snapping at them, swam to shore with the man who was dead before they arrived there. Beaurepaire holds the mile open water championship and also the 1,500 meters record. Other Australian water stars are Harry Ray, Keith Kirtland, Ivan Stedman, Billy Longworth, and Jack Gillen. Open Water Dangerous. The open water is considered too dangerous for swimming races here, owing to the sharks, and all clashes ,are held in what is termed "baths." That means a space in the waters of the bays which is fenced in to protect swimmers. The clashes are conducted under the auspices of . both the Amateur Swimming association and the Surf Bathers' association. All through the summer some sort of weekly races are held in the baths. The climax event, of course, Is the tournament to decide the city, state and national championships. They usually happen in January and February. Back in the old U. S. A. a good swimmer is just a good swimmer and not to be regarded in the same class of heroes as Babe Ruth, Jack Dempsey, Ty Cobb, Benny Leonard and the others. But here a great swimmer is considerable of a person. They load him down with medals, give him the keys to the city and usually strew his pathway with laurel, posies and' glad acclaim. EATON PLAYERS HAND MILTON CLUB LACING EATON, Ohio, Sept, 18. With an all Preble county baseball team, representing Eaton, the home club downed the highly touted Milton, Ind., ball club by the score of 10 to 4. The regular Eaton club has been disbanded for the season, but a team of scrubs was organized to play the Milton nine. Eaton.

Bob Pruett's southpaw fadeaway succeeded where Urban Shocker's veteran pitching art failed, and the battling St. Louis Browns were back today within a half game of the top as a result of their 5 to 1 victory over New York in the second game of the "little world's series." The final contest between the rivals will be played today with Joe Bush, Huggins' premier mound ace, and possibly Vangilder, who turned in a brilliant game against Boston last week, as pitching opponents. Ken Williams, of The Browns, and Babe Ruth, of the Yankees both demonstrated their favorite art in the second game, the former smashing out his thirty-eighth homer to break a tie for the major league lead with Rogers Hornsby, of the St. Louis Cardinals, while Babe busted his thirtythi.rd. George Sisler added another laurel wreath to his collection by hitting safely in his forty-first consecutive game, breaking Ty. Cobb's modern mark of forty, set in 1911. Reds Stop Giants. The Giants lost to Cincinnati, 4 to 3, in a battle of southpaws, Nehf and Rixey, and dropped a half game of their six game margin over the Pittsburg Pirates, who were idle. If the Giants win half of their 14 contests, the Pirates must take all of their 13 games to annex the pennant. Osborne held the Dodgers, and Chicago defeated Brooklyn, 6-2, in the only other National league game scheduled Summa, a Texas outfield recruit, and Boone, a rookie twirler, were leading factors in Cleveland's victory .over the Philadelphia Athletics, 4 to 2. Dauss was hit hard and Washington downed Detroit 6-2, while a batting rally in the sixth produced the runs that gave Boston a 3 to 2 decision over the White Sox.

Harrison Thomson of Princeton University is America's best all around track and field athlete. These two points were decided at the third and final days of the National A. A. U. track and field championships at Weequahic Park, Newark, N. J. SMALL WORLD SERIES ATTRACTS FANS' EYE ST. LOUIS, Sept. 18. The 1922 championship of the American league hinged in a large measure upon the outcome of the final contest of a three game series between the New York Yankees and" the St. Louis Browns here today. New York possessed the slim lead of a nair game over St. Louis, hiacn nine has won one game, the Yankees copping Saturday, 2 to 1, when Bob anawKey suDauea urDau onocner m a thrilling pitchers' battle, and the Browns winning yesterday "Shucks Pruett, southpaw schoolboy hurler, pitching invincible ball against Waite Hoyt and Sam -Jones. Should New York win today, the visitors would increase their lead to a game and a half. That margin at this stage of the season, with the Browns having only nine games to play and the Yankees ten, would go far in determining the ultimate winner of the championship. Should victory perch on the Browns' banner, the locals would capture a lead of a half contest. This result, it is believed, would mean that the Browns have a favorable chance to beat the New York team down the stretch, as the Yankees appear to be facing a harder schedule to the fin ish than the Browns. Shocker Again, Maybe "Bullet" Joe Bush, the leadin pitcher of the major leagues, with a record of 24 games won and six lost this season, was primed to hurl for the Yankees. For the Browns, the pitching selection seemed to lay between Davis, Wright and Kolp. There was some speculation that Shocker would try a comeback with only one day's rest. Baffling the hard-hitting Yankees, Pruett increased to ten the number of times he has fanned Ruth in the 15 times Ruth has faced him this season. The Bambino has hit safely twice; and walked the other times at bat against Pruett. Approximately 60,000 spectators have viewed the two games of the "little worlds' series" and, weather permitting; the total attendance for the series was expected to reach nearly 85,000.
