Sport and Society Section EL PASO HERALD Phillies Keep Up Fast Race, Winning From the Dodgers In 11 Innings Smith is Not a Finished Fighter Joe Mandot Will Have to Watch Other Lightweights Go After Title; Young Denny Appears to. Be a THOS. S. ANDREWS --------------By JL 1 boxing dope was badly mixed in some of the contests last week, the only one going' to form being the Gunboat Smith-Jess Willard match at San Francisco, which the Gunboat annexed after a hurricane fight over the 20 round course. The navy man gave away a lot of weight, the Kansan having the advantage to the extent of 15 pounds, also in height and reach, but the greater experience and hitting ability of Smith brought home the bacon for him.

From all accounts the battle, while a hard one, did not sho9w either man as finished lighter. Poor Joe Mandot! Fine little fellow and one who looked like a champion at one time; but he now bow down low and watch the other fellows climb toward the Willie Ritchie flag staff, for Bud Anderson, the Vancouver lightweight, spoiled all of chances by laying him out for the 3 0 count at Los Angeles. Jt required 12 rounds to turn the tick and during that time the two boys put up a splendid contest, but the strength and stamina of the Canadian was too much for the southerner. It will mean that Bud be the one to get after scalp instead of Smiling Joe. Mandot had been the favorite, owing to his greater experience and his fine showings in the past, but the newcomer would not be denied and fought to win from the start, using all his strength and only at a time when it did the most good.

Another fight that put the dope to the bad was the one in Sydney, Australia, which Johnny Summers, the British welterweight champion, lost on joints to Harry Stone, of New York, a young fighter only considered as among the fairly good boys of the east. The contest went 20 rounds and Johnny lost the point decision, which shows the New York boy as being better than his friends had bargained for; as Summers is no second class fighter by any means. It will probably mean the matching of the boys, for Johnny will never let this title slip away without making a desperate effort to win it back again. Should Stone return here with the title of Great Brtain and Australia to his credit he wrill be in a position to meet Ray Bronson, or whoever may hold the American title at the time, for the championship. Still another fight that was doped wrong was the one between Young Jack O'Brien, the Philadelphia lightweight, who has made such an excellent showing of late, when he lost the popular decision to Jimmy Duffy, the Buffalo lad who recently defeated Ray time.

Fro nk is conic feat lndian- t'ne big Temple at Butte, Mont. rom all accounts Duffy had the best ot the bout throughout. The long layoff no doubt did much to hurt chances, and it only proves sl boxer niust keep up his sparring if he hopes to be at his I best in a real match. This boy Duffy 1 to be coining along' at a rapid and if he does not outgrow the lightweight- limit he will be in for sorjte big matches on the coast. The club at Butte, has been after I Duffv for a match with Pal Brown, the Minnesota sensation, but the Hibbing boy will not fight until July or possibly Labor day, having decided to I rest up on his farm urttil that George Engel, manager of Klaus, the Pittsburg bearcat, I fident that his protege will Jack Dillon when they clash at 1 apoiis, May 29, the night before i auto race there.

George is so sure of it that he writes that he has arranged for i Frank to box the winner the Bombardier Wells-Carpenticr match in Beli gium this month, th- same to take place in Paris the. last June. Of I course it all depends upon the Freneh- man accepting the terms submitted by Engel. An effort will be made to bring Klaus and Jimmy Clabby together for a big match, but there is some doubt about the Pittsburg man making the weight. However, if Frank can defeat Jack Dillon, as he thinks he can, why i there will be few who will not admit that he is about the best of all the i middleweights in this country, his only rivals then being Eddie McGoorty and Jimmy Clabby.

Eddie McGoorty will be the busy boy along with Dillon and Klaus. With the I help of his trainer, Rudie Unholz, he was matched up with Deo Houck at Boston today, and on June 13 he is to meet Jimmy Clabby, at Butte, Mont. It will be day and wrill be the big event of the summer out that way. He is also negotiating for a matsh at Winnipeg and may meet Tony Caponi there. Another new one has come into the limelight, one hardly e-ver heard of before.

The new one is Young Denny, of New Orleans, who gave Ray Bronson a hard 10 round fight a few nights ago and secured a draw. young fellow will be heard of before writes Ray Bronson, you can say for that if he shows as good as he did against me he will make all of us hustle for the welterweight title. He is a i youngster, but has everything that goes to make a good fighter. He sure i has a good left and a right cross tnat is a (MS MW or City and El Paso Teams to Parade; Mayor to Piteli First Ball. Mayor Kelly has been selected to inaugurate the Copper league at Washington park on Saturday, May 31, and will probably pitch the first ball from a decorated box on the ridge pole of the grand stand.

Silver City will be here to open up the leigue in conjunction with the Mavericks. A tpa- rade with a band will be held in the forenoon, which will take in all of the down town streets. Both stands have been cleaned, and will be decorated with flags and bunting in preparation for the opening day. It is probable that the services of the Second cavalry band will be secured. A large flag has been selected as a pennant for the champions of the season.

Dr. W. McCammant has arranged for the regular body of rooters to attend the game but this time they will be more organized, and have more privileges' around the park than in the former games. Three umpires were appointed at the meeting of the of the teams at the meeting in Silver City. T.

W. Battle and H. E. Van Surdam of El Paso and Tom Oxman, of Hurley, have been appointed as official arbiters, and are provided with full power to slip the rollers under any of the players and banish them from the field if necessary. No fines will be imposed on the players.

It has been agreed that no player will be bougnt or offered inducements by another club, while he is a member of one cluo in the league. The idea of the league was first brought uj) by Art Woods, manager of the Cactus club, at the Os-aple tournament last fall when both the Hurley and Santa Rita teams were here. It was originally intended to have six teams in the league, as proposed early this season, but the plan fell through. The following representatives attended the meeting at Silver City; W. S.

Crawford, of El Paso; captain Kirchman, of Santa Rita; Eddie Ward, of Silver City, and Dorian Clark, of Hurley. BASEBALL RESULTS GAMES A LEAGI E. At Philadelphia (1st game). R. H.

(Eleven innings.) Cardinals Make Good Showing In East St. Louis Nationals Appear to Be Strongest of the Western About Big League Players. By W.

The Cards managed to take one out of three from the Braves but they lost three in a row to the Dodgers. Withal the Cards have the best record of any wrestern club. So far they have won' five and lost seven, which is one better than the showing made by the Reds. Then Harmon and Sallee have just kicked in with winning games and if Griner and Perritt maintain their pace, the local club should be in a fair way to success. 45- I had any pitching staff in the American league, other than my own or I w'ould w'in the pennant by 20 declared Connie Mack, the other day.

TT This pitching proposition is everything these days. The because of good pitching, have been winning, although weakened by the loss of Lajoie and Birmingham. Cleveland yielded to Washington, 5-3, but this is the first defeat in several days.

entry, buoyed along by Falkenberg, Gregg, Steen, Mitchell and Blanding are only one-half a game out of first place. Hughey Jennings was asked which he preferred, Mathewson of the Giants or Johnson of the Senators. He hurriedly answered: Mathewson! He has absolute control of the ball at all times. He is useless for a player to wait him out unless he wants to give a free pass. control from the time he broke into the National league has been almost uncanny.

In picking the star of the Giants I do not think the less of Johnson. He is the best pitcher in the American league, but if a choice had to be Big Six for 4f But speaking of the living what Mathewson of Johnson: the pitcher, is the wonder of the season. He established his record of 56 scoreless innings. To my mind, he is not only the greatest in the game today, but the greatest that the game has ever produced. He did not make this record against easy teams, but against clubs composed of the hardest hitters in the country, firiffith did not pick any for him.

He has been playing outfield ever since he failed as a southpaw with the Giants nearly 20 years ago.

Roush is but 19 years old, and since he started the season has been hitting over the .400 mark.

What do you say if we falon to Brooklyn? But, hold 011 maybe we will have to.

A game stretched out to 14 innings provides some contest any old way you look at it, but when every inning bristles with thrills and every minute with throbs, what are you going to do if you were one of the 12 or 13 palpitating thousands of yelling maniacs who were fortunate enough see the glorious finish? But say, it was the best game ever. Entitled to Change Mind. Not that we may change our mind about any future games that may be a baseball fan is entitled to be as fickle as a suffraget over a question of marriage or that is an acknowledged prerogative I of both, but just at this time we feel 1 like lying back in an easy chair and saying sort of have i had a genteel sufficiency of all the i good things of life. We desire no i For, the Giants win, 3 to 2, and Honus Wagner and the other Wagnerites honus-wagged to a frazzle. We guess yes.

When there are so many heroes, who are entitled to wear halos for figur- ing conspicuously in the long delayed, palpitating fray, it is somewhat dif- ficult to pick out those players who did more than their fellows to bring about the grand climax, but to my i mind. Rube Marquard should he ac- corded no end of credit for his share in the proceedings. Great Work. There was never any more plucky display made by any pitcher in any game than Rube showed. He started off poorly, but that he came out with flying colors and with the vigorous acclaim of the spectators when he was relieved at the close of the 11 th inning entitles him to all the more credit.

Rube was placed in many dangerous situations, and pulled himself out with exhibitions of real gameness that forever should prohibit any insinuations that lie is not six feet and three of pure fight and pluck. Perhaps the 11 th inning showed Rube at his best. There were three Pirates on bases and two out, and he had Butler facing him at bat. Now Rube had passed the two previous batters, purposely possibly, but he had control to burn at that I stage and fanned Butler. Then he ceived the ovation that was deserved 1 and must have warmed the cockles of chilled heart.

Now, although I have on the victory, as it were, I consider that grand pitching is the most encouraging feature of the great game. It promises so much for the future. In my mind, Marquard is entitled to be called the winning pitcher of the contest. Deserves Credit. But that does not take away any of the credit due Tesreau.

The Ozark bear strangler, who pitched the last two innings, found himself in a deep, wide hole in the 14th stanza, when Hendrix led off with a clean triple, but never turned a hair 1 never fanned Byrne and Kelly and then made the ous Hoffman pop weakly to Merkle. But Marquard went through 11 almost i as strenuous innings, i In the 14th Herzog, after Merkle had fanned, lined a beauty to right for single. He stole second, assisted by failure to hold out-pitched ball. Meyers singled tween Byrne and AVagner, and Herzog took third and a little more. Wagner threw the ball to Byrne, and made an awful holler when Herzog was called safe.

The latter was not where near out, but AVagner was in an antagonistic mood. In fact, he had been all the afternoon. But Herzog was nailed at the plate w'hen Wagner threw bounder to Kelly In the meantime, Cooper had been put in to run for Wilson and was on second Burns 1 smashed the cleanest kind of ringing double to left and Cooper scored the winning run on that gladsome lick. From me May Rally New York Giants Manager McGraw Is Dealing for the Present in an Effort to Strengthen His Pitching Hope Ames Has Change of Luck. Bv DAMON Rl'DOLFO BREAKS RECORD IN WINNING KENT! KY HANDICAP.

Louisville, May a 4 year old colt, well ridden by jockey Loftus. won the Kentucky handicap, the richest American turf event, at Douglas park, and set a new track record of 2:05 4-5 for the mile and a quarter. Officially, the track was pronounced but the track record was equaled once and broken three times in the six races of the opening of the meeting. Rudolfo won the event from a 3 year old, Ten Point, after the latter led for most of the distance. Away badly, Loftus forced Rudolfo into second place at the three-quarters.

With Gowell third, this position was maintained until the stretch, when the 3 year old faltered and Rudolfo, under urging, forged to the front to win by a length. Ten Point tired rapidly in the last furlong and had to be ridden out to get second place by half a length from Any Port. YOUNG HALL WINS WRESTLING MATCH FBOM SAFFORD MAN Safford, May Hall, champion welterweight wrestler of the Pacific coast, won both falls from Lee Haby, of Safford, in their bout here. The first was secured in 34 minutes and the second in IS minutes. Another obably be arranged.

Joe ia and a Solomonville boxer, gave a two round exhibition as one of the preliminaries. Sam Paxton and AVellington Curtis figured in preliminary wrestling match. EW A'ORK, May the trade of Ames, Devore and Grom for pitcher Fromme comes in the nature of a surprise, it was generally expected that McGraw would make some startling move in view of the way the Giants have been going. In addition to the fact that the entire club has been playing in and out baseball, the Giant pitching staff bogged down hen Marquard and Tesreau failed to come to form, and A1 Demaree strained his back, leaving Mathewson practically alone in his glory as a 11 er. The trade should benefit clubs.

I McGraw gets an experienced pitcher, while manager Joe Tinker, of the Reds, gets an infielder and an out- i fielder, who can jump into the game at once, and undoubtedly strengthen his demoralized club, along with a hurler of known ability. McGraw for Present, Fromme is no youngster in point of service at least, and McGraw has given in exchange for him at least two men who should outlast the pitcher by many years, but McGraw is dealing just now for the present, and not for the future. The passing of Ames from the Giants is a matter of sincere regret to all New A'ork fans, for the Warren curver has been with the Giants for nine years, during which time he has done good service. In many of those nine years, however, he pitched in such hard luck that his became famous throughout the baseball world. Local followers of the game hope that the change of clubs will bring Leon a change of luck.

With Mathewson and Wiltse, Ames was the last of the old guard. is by no means done as a big leaguer, however, and he should be of great assistance to Tinker. eyes went bad under the blazing sun of left field, and George Burns came along to supplant him. Josh is only 24 years old, however, and was a while he may not be able to play the sun field as wrell as formerly, he can work in right or center. Last season he hit and fielded .918.

He is very fast on the bases and will add speed to the Reds. In both series in which the present Giants figured, and in the Yankee-Giant series he star. Groh Still a Rccruit. I Gron is still little more than a recruit, but in the two years that he has been on the Giant bench he has or bed much baseball knowledge. He can play short, second or third, and in 2 1 games last season he hit .271 McGraw thinks very highly of Groh'.

I but there was small prospect of the Rochester lad securing a regular berth with the Giants. Oddly enough Fromme was involved in another notable trade pulled off bv McGraw. when the Giant chief gave I Roger Bresnahan to St. Louis for I Raymond. John Murray and 1 Admiral Sohlei, of St.

Louis, aequir- mg the last named player from Cincin- 1 nati lor Fromme. i Last season Fromme worked in 4 3 games, of which 27 were complete, win! and losing ID. In secretary Heydler new system of rating pitchers according to the average of runs earned off them, Fromme stood 12 th. 1 He worked 29G innings and allowed 285 hits. He hit 11 batsmen, gave 8 bases on balls and fanned 120.

Out of J20 runs scored by opponents while he was working, 90 were chargeable to i him. it is a tradition in the baseball world that McGraw usually gets all the best of any deal that he makes, and that anv time he trades a man that man is through as a big league ball player In this instance, however, he has parently given full value received. Even if Ames is going back, Devore and Groh should be worth a great deal to linker. George Stallings, of Boston, was very anxious to acquire Jack, but apparently had nothing to offer in exchange.

LOUIS, May is Bud is a question that is enjoying wider fame, if not such prolonged notoriety as the historical query: struck Billy Buddy, be it remembered, made the i followers of the boxing world sit up and take notice by knocking out, in succession, Kayo Brown, the once impregnable German, and Joe Mandot, who owns a victory over Joe Rivers. name meant little even to I most Golden Gate folk, who have known him recently. The fact that he flashed into championship prominence in the manner described has set tongues a-wagging.

After some probing the following history of Anderson was unearthed. Buddy I 2G Years Old. Buddy is no springer. Some 26 years ago he came to life in the bushes of the extreme northwest; and as long as six or seven years ago he was traveling the northern fight circuit on his uppers, picking up a stray sandwich wherever a bout was available. He was unknown and unsung in San Francisco six months ago.

And when, about that time, he made his appearance there seeking a fight he rubbed off two or three shoe soles ere he got a hearing. Then he was told to move on. He tried Los Angeles. There he trimmed a fair young fighter from Columbus named Sammy Trott. Sam's chief claim to fame Is that he let Battling Nelson break his hands on his (Trott's) head, on one occasion, thus furnishing the Durable Dane with a permanent alibi.

Buddy Has the Punch. Anderson has fought over 4o fights, chiefly in the He is clever and a hard hitter. Here are his 10 best fights: Danny Kid Morrisey Tommy McFarland Frank Edwards Abe Label George Memsic Australian A1 Kelley. Babe Picato Sammy Kayo Joe rounds rounds rounds rounds O. 10 rounds O.

.8 rotmds 3 rounds rounds KO. 6 rounds .15 rounds O. ..12 rounds In Line for Title. Anderson is now sure to get a match with some of the big guns, but it will not be in a hurry. Reason? All the stars will have to have a peek him in action to learn how good he is before taking any further chances with a tough customer of his caliber.

Anderson has queered his moneymaking for some time unless some wise manager has already looked him over and found a weak point. As matters now stand he is quite as much entitled to a look-in at the lightweight title as Is Joe Rivers or Freddie Welsh. Greer's Electric Oarage 508 A Electric Cars.
