Hall tightened in the ninth inning of yesterday's game and spoiled a perfectly good rally that the Rourkes had just begun to stage for the benefit of the fair visitors. Results, 3 to 2, Joplin. When the ninth inning opened things looked rather gloomy for the locals, but when Manager Marty singled and scored on Shagerino's double and Shag Jn turn scored on Smith's single, everyone of the 170 people there uttered a cry of hope. Smith was left on first after Shag had scored on his hit, so Reverend Bradley sacrificed him to second. This was a right honorable thing to do, and in view of the fact that Tony Brottem hadn't hit since May 1 and was therefore due for a little bingle, it seemed the only solution of the problem. But Tony rolled a little grounder down to Lamb and that gentleman squelched Tony unmerci fully at the first sack. All Over a Dave Fails. All the hope in the world was then centered in Dave Williams, ,who singled once, the day before yester day. But David's effort was a roller to Lindamore and the game was over. The umpiringiad more to do with the outcome oj the game than any and every othe thing there. If Umpire frown could see what is going on ithe' ball yard, perhaps his work woifd be worse than it "was yesterday. Outside of that, though, he is O. K. and is bound to stick in the Western league. Phil Cooney thinks he's rotten so he told him yesterday at least. Brown listened with attention and then ush ered the agitated Phil to his seat on the bench. Ben Shaw then went to left field and Hugh Bradley played second. Hall and Leuschen were just about, even as far as merit goes. Each al lowed but five hits and each struck out two. . Hall, however, passed two , and Leuschen only one. The Rourkes will open a three game series here with the Grizzlies today.

Clarks the Murphy Did Its cinched the pen nant yesterday afternoon in the City league. Mow, in order to win the championship of class B, it will be necessary for the blacksmiths to knock off the pennant grabbers of the Metropolitan and American leagues. Although the B. & M. Camp, Mod ern Woodmen, were expected with Elmer Nuffer in the box to take the Stags to the cleaners, the Modern children were evidently togged in their hobble skirts, for they did not make much headway, because when the smoke cleared away the Stags were the victors, 11 to 2. Alpha Camp, Woodmen of the World, did not slackea its speed, but added an other wrangle from the Beddeos. Those Western Union boys looked as sweet as if they were sailing on an ocean of cologne when they held the speedy Krajiceks to a 6 to 3 score. In the Booster league the Sample Harts amply demonstrated their su periority over the Brodegaard Crowns when thev sliooed them nine goose eggs, while they collected" nine runs. Pitcher Goodrou was similar to a woman in certain re spects, for he sure had the Crowns guessing, striking out fourteen and allowing only four scattered hits. Catcher Lepinsky of the Trimble Bros, sewed up the bout with the Graham Ice Cream crew when he ziotoed one for the circuit with one of his partners lounging on corner No. Z. Would Shine as Weather Man. Manager Hall of the Park Avenue Florists would make an excellent candidate for chief of the weather bureau, for he is sure a peach doping out how the wind will blow before a game, but his predictions,- like that of the weather bureau, travel with the wind. Anyway, he and balance of his company failed to jar the Trimble Bros., Juniors, from position one in the Inter-City league as pre dicted by Hall. When the storm was over the Trimbles had the game in storage, score 10 to 4. The Engineers of the Union Pacific league marched into first place, which has been the property of the Motive Power and Machinery Department all season, when they won a 16 to 3 game, while the boys that dropped back lost a ten-inning battle with the Superintendent of Transportation: Hugh Jones Says Western Will Play Out the Season A meeting of Western league mag nates was held yesterday in Omaha to fix the schedule for the remainder of the year. , Hugh Jones, manager and owner of the Denver club, asserts that the league will continue for the rest of the season and will not, as rumor had it, disband at the close of the first half, July 22-.'

(By Associated Presi.) Chicago, July 16. The new rule ot the Western Golf association, abolish ing stymies, was tried and found want- .ing at the WesteriKmateur cham pionship at Midlothian and the rule was changed by the board of directors before the final round, in which Fran cis Ouimet yesterday won the t tie from Kenneth P. Edwards of Chicago by the narrow margin of 1 up in thirty-six holes. The rule, as announced severd weeks ago, required that the nearer ball be played first when both balls were on the green, tlvus avoiding stymies. The plan worked well in medal play, as there was no lifting of the nearer ball, and an average of fifteen minutes time was taken off an eighteen-hole round without any det riment to the players, as they were contesting the field instead of one man. When the match play started, however, the contestants were loud in their clamor for a change in the rule, and President Charles F. Thompson, agreeing with the players, had a new one drafted. The rule abolishes stymies, whether due to the. faulty play of the owner of the stymied ball, or to the ac cidental position of his opponent'! ball, but requires the ball further from the hole to be played first, un less a stymie exist, lm that case the nearer ball is to be played first or lifted, at the option of its owner. The rule reads: "When both balls are on the putt ing green, if the player 'of the ball farthest from the hole claims that the nearer ball interferes with his putt, the nearer ball, upon request, shall be lifted or played at the option of its owner." It was contended by the objectors to the original rule that the playing of the farther ball first removed some of the elements of competition, al lowed the opponent to know just what he had to do after the other man had holed out and made the owner of the nearer ball play from two to three shots in rather rapid succession.
