City Park tied the Olivets for first place In the Northern Division of the Playground League by defeating the northwestern seu tion pennant contenders on the park diamond, yesterday afternoon, by the score ot 9 to 7. The Olivets sot away to a thrco run lead In the first but were unable to hold it after the Park players started bumping the ball: Ijelzerwitz was invincible after the first Inning.

Both City Park and the Olivets have one more game to play and the race Is likely to end In a tie. On Friday afternoon the Park nine meets Spring and Church at the Rixth street hollow and it looks like a sure victory for the former. On the. same afternoon the Olivets play Twelfth and Perry. The latter team is "one of the strongest in the league and may crimp the Olivets' pennant chances.

21 I wish to inform the public and Mr. Folmer, manager of the Kaufmann Furniture team, in your snappy sporting page, that we, the Birdsboro club, protest the frame of Sunday at Carsonia Park. Dua to the fact that the umpire was not on the job or intentionally left the play go in the sixth which tied, the score. Beard was at bat 1 and Buckley was on first base. Board had two strikes and when Buckley went to second, Beard swung at the ball.

Hart threw to second when the batter was out, making three down, Greager, at second muffed the ball and Buckley scored the run which tied the score, but there were three down. Beard still stood at the plate got another strike, making four and still he wanted the fifth. The umpire did not call him out, which resulted in a chewing match. Beard did not move from the plate until his teammates came out on the field. The game should have ended in the ninth inning 1 to 0 in favor of Birdsboro.

Any true fan who saw the game will tell you it was our game. Birdsboro will continue to have a claim on the championship untn they are beaten in a series by Kaufmann. Thanking you "for the space, I remain, H. O. COMPTON, Manager, of Birdsboro Team.

Baseball in Berks is likely to be cut short this season by the war as many teams in the county will be compelled to disband because of the large number of players entering the service. Orrton is to quit after Sunday's game find Mphnton announces that it will play its last game on Labor Day. Orrton is Quitting because Prank Polito, the playing manager is to leave with the draftees next week. Several other players have been lost within the last month in the draft and byenlisrment and the team only has nine players at the present time. It is hard to get other players and there are fewer teams operating this season than in any previous year.

This is proven by the hard time the managers are having in booking games, specially the county The county clubs usually depend upon the city for at tractions, but there are not very many first class teams in Reading this season. Mohnton has been ad vertising for a game at home on Saturday for several days, but has not obtained a club, Gibraltar is looking, for a club to go down there on Sunday and Orrton is also open for a Sunday date. The third and deciding game of a series of three between the Olivets and Denver will be played at the latter place on Saturday. The Olivet players are requested to report for practice this evening.

Aug. 21. The American running record (or a mile, established at 1:35 eighteen years ago. by Salvator at Monmouth Park, N. was lowered here today by Roamer who covered the distance in 1:34 4 5.

The plucky gelding ran with ease, and at no time was it necessary for Andy Schuttinger, his rider, to use the whip. Carrying Ralvator's old weight, 100 pounds, Roamer' got away from Achute and Lightning, a two year old stable mate, was sent to the post to pace him. But at the drop of the flag Roamer was galloping along at his best speed from a flying start and the pacemaker was far in the rear. His stride nevr shortened, and for the entire distance he ran with apaprent ease. Roamer is a seven year old geld ing, and is owned by Andrew Miller.

The world's record for a mile, 1:33 1 5 was made by Caiman, 4 year old at Lingfield, England, in 1900. EVERS NOW IN FRANCE Game in Paris League PARIS, Aug. 21. Johnny Evers is over here. The star of a thousand memorable American gles stepped from a transport into France, and on Sunday afternoon he was out there covering the middle bag for the Army Ambulance team with such pep and ginger in his movements that the Soldier team leaders in the now famous Paris League, took the short end of an 8 to 6 score.

After Sunday's game the stalwart frame of another American baseball hero bobbed up in the crowd and the peppery Evers was shaking hands with the equally indomitable Hank Gowdy, among the very first of the major league baseball players to get into khaki. Out of that first conference between Evers and Gowdy plans were made for a series of games at American hospital centers as a means of entertainment for wounded Yankees, who so far have not been able to enjoy many outdoor diversions. Army officers, French and American, are enthusiastic over the scheme and the games, it is understood, soon will be under way, with Evers as one of the star players and with Gowdy in the lineup also whenever the old Boston catcher can drag himself out of the trenches long enough to ex change a 'gas mask for the old steel face covering used behind the bat.
