SAND LOT CROWDS NOT UP TO OLD HIGH TIDE MARK Great Doings on Local Dia monds, Where Candidates for Big League Places Chase Pigskin Sphere. By FRANK QUIGLEY. The crowds at the various parks could have been larger yesterday, but what is the use of being a pessi mist and kicking a hole through the sky? First base generally can be reached by a hit, and sometimes several to complete the circuit, arriving home with the Quaker smile. Well, it is up to you local ball tossers to make hits with the local fans, and the joy ful news will travel homeward and many others will catch the baseball fever. O. K. and in the pink of condition, the Murphy-Did-Its sailed into Chi cago on firecracker day, exceedingly dry and as hungry as bears. The writer was not informed what was used for a thirst quencher, but Jewel Bert Murphy (the pride of Omaha as a backer) sparkled through the gloom with invitations for a swell fodder at the La Salle hotel. In the afternoon he packed the gang in a couple of gas wagons, headed for the White Sox park, where a double-header was lamped. At eight and three-quarters strikes the bunch hooked a steamboat for Alma, Mich., where they played and copped the long end of an 8 to0 score. Here are the fellows that represented the Murphy-Did-Its at Alma. Mich.: Kushenbcrg, Hay, Mad den, Hazen, Krug, Moran, Corcoran, Clair, Fcltman, Synek and Roland Peterson mascot. Warriors Meant Business. Evidently the Southtown warriors meant business with the C B. Longe ways. Anyway, they put all nine cyl inders in action, and with such speed they swept in enough counters to push the pennant contenders another step down the ladder aid incidentally push the ham town aggregation sky ward. Even the Krajiceks came to the front with barrels of pepper yesterday and the jC. B. Metcalfs were forced to wander back across the muddy nursing a defeat. During this jam boree somebody thought the umpire had a head on him like a barrel, but he passed the censorship and will probably be on trial again next Sun day. It was nip and tuck between the Holmes' White Sox and the Beselins yesterday, the Sox finally inarching off with one point to the good. In the City League National Cash Registers are still tip in the clouds with the Central Furnitures in the mist and the defunct Clark aggrega tion are still in the basement Merchants Move Down. The only change in the American league was the McCaffreys pushing the Florence Merchants back to the third floor by accepting a silver platter donation. The Merchants re fused to play the McCaffrys pushing might be possible that said forfeit may be tossed out at the next meeting of the American league. Yesterday the feature argument of the day was unloaded between the J. B. Roots and the Trimble Juniors. Although this argument was a tight affair everyone . concerned reported for duty with' credit marks. At that trouble was not even borrowed. The key to success' was slipped to tne Roots and when the smoke cleared away, the score, board registered 4 for the Roots and 3 for the opposi tion. If the Trimbles could have nailed this debate the Booster league would again be knotted for berth one, but now the Roots have practically iced the pennant. , One Triple Play. A triple play happened during the tangle. One of the Roots sapped a line drive at the middle cushion.

TODAY TO WEDNESDAY Presents' j Sw- Doroflife in The Kaiser's Shadow Official Government War Pictures CONSTANCE TALMADGE in "Good Night, Paul" Bee Want Ads Produce Kesults, ED BARROW, HED SOX LEADER, HAS HIT HIS STRIDE Determined and Far-Seeing, He Has Made Good as Man ager; His Team Works. r tack w.Tnrv International News Sports Editor. New York, July 6. Ed Barrow ha certainly made good as manager of the Boston Red Sox. "But why shouldn't Ed make good?" asks a veteran fan. Why shouldn't he, indeed? ' In the opinion of the old-time bug Barrow could not have done other wise, with an array of talent. such as is to be found on the Red Sox and an open pur. to back him up. i It is the belief of the fan in ques tion, and a good many fans, that the ball club makes the manager rather than the manager making the ball club, and it all leads up to an old and time-worn argument that has never been satisfactorily settled. In Barrow's case the argument that he stepped into a berth with every thing he could desire at his fincer tips is practically true, yet Barrow lacked some players who were neces sary to make his club a winner, and he moulded the talent he had at hand into a winner a more consistent win. ner than Jack Barry had last year. Another thing in Barrow's regimt that stands out is the fact that he is the manager, and he has proven it. He proved it early in the season when, after taking on Johnny Evers, he suddenly let the Little Trojan go because he does not believe that two cooks can make a batch of broth. Bar row is the boss and the Red Sox are winning. That's something to his credit, isn't it? Iron-jawed, determined, base ball wise and far seeing, Barrow is pos sessed of the qualifications of a win ning leader. In addition he knows how to handle men another big point. Barrow may have had a world of rich talent he certainly boasted the greatest pitching staff in the ma jors in Mays. Leonard, Ruth and Bush when the season opened and that talent has had a big share to do with the success of the Sox, but to ' our way of thinking Barrow is get ting the maximum amount of work out of his team, and hat is the thing that counts. 1 AMI SEMENTS.
