Record in Half Mile; Grace Acheson Wins j- '-v', -v mt -f I i- PHILADELPHIA Continuing their sustained march toward a (pennant, the Philadelphia Athletics 1 took both ends of a double-header By RALPH S. DAVIS Press Srorts Editor Pittsburgh Athletic Association athletes won the open Amateur Athletic Union point prize at the fifth annual field day of the Philadelphia Company and affiliated corporations, held Saturday at Schenley 4 few years ago, according to close observers. Some fans decry the lack of enthusiastic kicking, and declare it is a sign of decadence in the national pastime. In what are always called the "good old days," umpire baiting was apparently a necessary part of baseball. No game was considered complete unless some player or manager made dire threats against the umpire, and tried in a physical way to intimidate the caller of balls and strikes.

Umpires in those days were rough and ready fellows, who understood just what they were up against, and went on the field of f4 from the hapless Chicago Whitesox here Saturday. The Mackmen won the first came 9 to 2 and the second, 3 to 0. A homeric drive by Jimmy Foxx with two mates on bases in the eighth inning of the second game spoiled a pitcher's battle between Pat Caraway and George Earnshow and brought victory to the locals. A costly error by Bill Kamm, the Sox third baseman, paved the way lor Foxx's wallop. The Athletics took the first game by a virtue of some airticht nitrhinor Davis Oval, with a total of 31.

The Pennsylvania Railroad representatives were second with 17, and Slippery Rock Teachers College third with 15. Union Athletic Club of Turtle Creek came In fourth with seven points, and the others were distributed as follows: Erie Club, Holy Cross Club, iir rvwf 1: i $2. play, prepared to defend themselves to the last ditch. Some of the arbiters swung an ugly mask, and did not hesitate to brinir it into action, if belligerent players came too -C IT on the part of Eddie Rommel and a powerful offensive by his Irammairs. Walsh and Henry toiled for the Sox in this encounter, both were hit freely by the victors.

In the events for public utilities employes, Duquesne Light came out ahead with 69 points, to Philadelphia Company's 65. Pittsburgh Rail-wavs Company was third with 38, and Equitable Gas Company fourth with 18. The Duquesne Light team needed the last event on the list, the horseshoe pitching contest, to gain its victory. Blimp Injures Star The meet was one of the best ever conducted at the Oval, and was witnessed by a crowd of 12,000. In addition to the track and field contests, there were special stunts on the infield, and a big blimp soared over the Oval, while the athletes performed below.

The blimp was responsible for a distressing accident. As it descended after a passenger-bearing flight, "Jimmy" King, of Swissvale, a Pitts close. The umpires of old nearly all wore steel tips on their shoes, for their toes were never safe. Angered players, came up close in registering their kicks, and if they missed an umpire's tender feet with their spikes, it was not because they intended or tried to. The situation became so acute that the baseball powers took cognizance of it, and legislated against it.

They inflicted severe penalties upon those wtio menaced the wearers of the mapk and windpad, and riadually marie the players understand they were hired to play ball, and not fill the role of assailant or assassin. The diamonds were removed further and further from the stands, too, so that the fans could not come in too close proximity to the umpires, end ingress and egress for the officials was made as private as possible. Pop Bottle Barrages 'Not So Po pular Now THERE ARE still occasional pop bottle barrages launched by irate onlookers, but the spectators, for the most part, have been tamed alone with the athletes, and the umpire no longer leads a life of constant, advsnturc. Another factor in the peace of mind of the windpaddist is that many of the old. hard-boiled babies have doffed their uniforms, and are resting placidly on the benches in citizen's clothes, or have entirely disappeared from the scene of action.

The modern player knows better where to draw the line than did his predecessor of a score or less of years ago. The athlete of today probably has a more refined vocabularly than the regular of 1910. He is effective, but not so profane. He is proficient, but not so picturesque. The umpire is to him more of a dignified stranger than he used to be The official is clothed with more authority these days, and the players have been made to realize that the person of the arbiter is sacred, and that dire results follow any assaults.

Some fans will tell you, too, that the umpire is not molested as often todav, cither by player or fan, because interest in baseball is gradually diminishing, and there arc not so many rabid rooters as there used to be. in the old days, the success or failure of a ball club was a personal matter with thousands or its followers. Today the fan goes to the game, sits through it sometimes with an air of boredom, and allows the umpire to do what he believes to be right, without any outside assistance or suggestions. Moreover, baseball reporters are enlightened to the extent that few of them find fault with indicator handlers as they used to do. The scribes admit they are not in as good a position to see plays as the paid arbiters, and they have also come to respect the men who handle the games, and to give them the benefit of the doubt if a mistake is made.

More than 5,000 Westinghouse picnickers were attracted to the Ken-nywood Park athletic field Saturday, to witness one of the most pretentious track and field carnivals for the employees ever staged.

The big event of the day was the ti'g-of-war. Switchgear Department after only a few moments of hard and earnest pulling, shoved Transportation into defeat, amid much cheering.

He ran the 10 furlongs in 2:04 in a manner that suggested he could have done much better had "Sonny" Workman asked for more speed. He was a prohibitive favorite in the wagering at 1 to 12.

Because of his having been in the big leagues more than 10 years, he was given his unconditional release. He has been hitting only around .270, but his bat has been especially effective against southpaw hurlers.

Last year the official records show 1,416 misplays by the eight National League outfits. The total for this year on Aug.

New records are being compiled in almost all branches or baseball attack, and it would not be surprising if the. old marks for poor defensive work should also be blasted. There is a reason for the enormous number of errors being made, find it is not to be found in the failure of players to try as hard as in past seasons. The boys are working as zealously as they ever did.
