McGraw's Steam Roller Crushes Hopes of Moran Slim Sallee Shelled From Mound, Ross Young Leading Attack With a Homer and Single; MeCartv Gets Triple and Single Off Old Pal By W. O. McGeehan The Giants resumed their mad course of kicking all the props from tinker the National League race yesterday by shutting out Patrick Aloy sius Moran's red-limbed performers at the Polo Grounds by the score of 5 to 0. The audacity of the Giants on the bases and a couple of bits of melodrama on the part of Ross Young had the Reds so utterly bewilderec, 'that they blinked through the last few innings. Patrick Moran's pugnacity sought relief in a growl at Umpire Hank O'Day.

Rut Hank, though he once managed the Reds him.self, had no sympathy for a fellow sufferer, and Pat lost even at that game. It was not the fact that Ross slammed Slim Sallee for homer into the right field stands. This was a mere incident in Young's performance for the afternoon. What made the multi? tude gasp and started the discourage? ment that lingered with the Reds was a peg that he made from far right field. It happened in this fashion: Roush annoyed Rube Benton by slashing a hit through short.

Kopf shot out another hit that went bounding through second right field, and Roush started on a dash for third. It was a logical move. Roush is one of the fastest of bags runners, and Kopfs hit was a good, long, safe hit. Ross Young scurried after the ball and nailed it just as Roush was well on his way to third. He poised himself for just an instant and then made the throw.

It was not a relay. It travelled with what the rifle expert would call a very flat trajectory directly to third base, where Heinie Zimmerman was waiting. Roush slid. The ball snapped into the third baseman's hands. Zim? merman put it on Roush as the Red outfielder slid for the bag.

More Like a Comet will not do for a term for Young in a game where the lingo runs to ex? aggeration. The youngest Giant is more like a comet. That throw made some 35,000 gasp. About 4,000 more would have gasped, but they had to close the gates at tho Polo Grounds yesterday and turn that many away. The terror of Young was in evidence in the sixth, when Xcale beat an infield hit and Groh hit to right field.

Pat Moran signalled Xeale to stop at third. It was wise, for another flat trajectory throw by Young was on way to cut down the runner. Another remarkable feature of the game is that Hal Chase got his first hit since the signing of the nrr.iistice? not the armistice between himself and Mathewson, the other. Ore statistician declares that it was his first out of twenty-three times at bat. but ticians sometimes boot one.

It was a two-bagger. This may or may not be taken as an indication that Prince Hal is about to hop right into the stride that had him leading the league once. The opposing pitchers were the two lop-sided Rubo Ben ton, formerly of Cincinnati, and now with the Giants, and Sheriff Sallee, formerly a Giant and now a capitalist in the employ of Pat Moran. Sallee became peeved when he saw his team? mates wilting under the dash of the old Giant machine, of which he used to be a highly esteemed cog. He was taken out for a pinch hitter in the seventh shortly after Young had landed on him for a home run.

The Giants whirled their first run ever in the second inning. Larry Doyle led off with a smatsh to centre field. Kauff connected with the ball, but Neale made a pretty catch. Zimmer? man got his base on balls- Fletcher hit to right field and Doyle started for home. It seemed certain that the relay would nail him, but Doyle slid under Wild Bill Raridan Zimmerman scooted for third and Fletcher reached second on the play.

With two out Benton was standing pensively by the plate wondering whai -'sort of delivery Sallee would hand ar old team mate. While he was deliber? ating Zimmerman started to stea home. He would have made it, too, bul Benton stood watching Sallee anc Heinie had to excute a curve slid? around the Rube. Ho was tagged b. Rariden while he was attempting thii contortion feet.

Zim Expostulates With Rube When he arose and brushed hlmsel ff Zim expounded upon tho eccentrici ties of left-handed pitchers, past am present, to the bewilderment of Ben ton. "What did I do?" demanded Rub In injured tones." I hain't done nothini to you. Heinie." "That's what's the matter," retortei Heinie. "You didn't do nothing. That' what's the matter with all They never do nothing.

They ain' got sense enough to do nothing." Wei anyhow, Rube comes from the Caro linas, dogs of which section si on their haunches and howl rathe than rise when hornets are stingln them. The Giants got their second run i the fifth by the-sheer force of smash lag at Sheriff Sallee. With one ou Fletcher drove a double to left. Le? McCarty, who, according to reliabl statisticians, if nuch there be, is no' among the five hardest hitters of th league, brought Fletcher homo with hit to left. The two runs in the sixth achieved by the comet, Young, and star that was and may be again, Young did his bit in a fashion by simply the ba into the right field bleachers and tro ting ail the way around the track.

Then came the awakening of Hi Chase, who had reached first base in his official capacity as first basants so seldom this season that lie ha? having hardly any but official relatif With it. Chase slammed the ball to fi left for a two-bagger. That awakeni his lost interest in his surrounding On a fly by Doyle he made a dash third, reaching it on the head for most slide, of which he is one of tl very remaining exponents. Kauff slapped one into tl front of Bill Rariden. Cha made another head foremost slide at to the plate for a run.

The final run was initiated and co eluded by Lew MeCarty. With one Lew drove a triple to the fence. Burns got a base on bal Theo same the wireless for the doul Barns started for seeond, a fka Med? became bewildered. Sweeping Ahead CINCINNATI (N. JO I NKW TORK (N.

They had its range. But the mystery of the game is why is there no kindly feeling, no bond of sympathy to bind the managers of the Cincinnati Reds. Mathewson as well as Pat Moran picked on Hank O'Day. Surely this trio of sufferers ought to be kind to one another. Thero is a bond of sympathy between men who have been operated on for appendicitis.

Red managers ought to feel that way. Pol Perritt Signs A Giant Contract; Gonzales Arrives Pol Perritt is once more a Giant In good standing and will be seen in ac? tion in the very near future.

McGraw denies this. Gonzales, the Cuban catcher, arrived yesterday. It is expected that he will sign as soon as he receives the word from Branch Rickey. He has stated as much. Though the Giants aro smashing along the reserves are being prepared in caso of an unforseeh breakdown.

Fate was fittingly kind to tho Dodgers, foi their victory by a score of 4 to 3 sent the Flatbush rooters home in a happy mood. Brooklyn's winning tally came in tho ninth inning, through a terrific swat by Ed Konetchy, after Chicago had evened the score at 3-all in its half of the final frame.

Grover Cleveland Alexander, the Cub ace, made his third start of the season, and while failing to record first victory, showed that ho was rapidly rounding to his pre-war days form. True Alexander did not twirl the full contest. He retired from the fray in the seventh in favor of.an un? successful pinch hitter. With the ex? of the fourth and fifth innings, in which frames the Dodgers collected six hits for three runs, Alexander was always the master. Big Jeff Pfeffer was on tho mound for Brooklyn and the victory was his sixth straight.

At times Pfeffer wa? vered, and it was during these tense moments that the Brooklyn infield rallied to his support. Pfeffer rose to the heights in the ninth, when the first three Cubs up hit safely. Backed by splendid support, Big Jeff turned back the next three batters. Break Comes in Ninth Brooklyn enjoyed the breaks of the game, and one of these, coming in the ninth inning started the Flatbush men to their victory. After Olson and Ma gee had been retired by Claude Hen drix, who had succeeded Alexander, Griffith lined to Pick, at third base.

The Cub failed to hold the ball and in Jiis eagerness to toss out Griffith hurled it to the right field stands. Grif? fith went to second on the error. Ilen drix walked both Zach Wheat and Myers, forcing Griffith around to third base. It was here that Konetchy shot one through Pick's legs to left field, scoring Griffith with tho winning run. Hollocher, tho Cub shortstop star, was credited with a freakish homo run in the first inning that enabled the Windy City team to take a two-run lead, After Pick had died an easy vic? tim, Mngee to Konetchy, Flack singled to centre.

Hollocher then hit sharply along the right fie'd base line and Griffith tore in for a shoestring catch. However, the ball came so fast that it struck Griffith's clove and bounded into tho stand. Flack, of course, scored in advance of him. The first Brooklyn hit came In the fourth, when Myers beat, out a bunt aiong the first baso line and was safe on a close decision. Konetchy then smashed one to centre, on which Myers raced to third.

Konetchy stolo second, but Malone fanned. Alexander was hrt freely in the fifth. Krueger singled to left and Pfeffer surprised with a single to right chased Krueger to third. Oison con? tinued the bombardment with a safety to right, scoring Krueger and advanc ing Pfeffer to second. Magee sacrificed and Griffith followed with a two-bag? ger when Flack in right field lost the ball in the sun.

Pfeffer scored and Olson reached second. Luck for Dodgers Wheat was passed and then followed a piece of good luck for tho Brooklyn team. Myers hit a bounder along the right field base line. Merkle succeeded in touching out Myers, but Olson had i scampered over the plate with tho third run of tho inning. Konetchy ended the hurricane inning with a foul fly to Hollocher.

The Dodger rooters had an uneasy timo in tho ninth, when Hollocher, Lear and Barber hit safely in order be ginning the inning. However, Merkle. struck oui, on a ball that fairly brushed his shirt, while Mann fouled to Krueger i and Wheat made a fine catch of Kil- lifer's low Hher. Wheat opened the eighth with a triple, and althiuyjh Myers and both wero passed to first by Ifendrix not a run resulted. The Brooklyn infield, especially Magoo, proved nimble performers, furnishing three double plays.

And now we como this week to the second canto of the tournament libretto, when Sleepy Hollow offers its course to tho stars and otherwise of the district. The Sleepy Hollow tournament opens on Thursday with an eighteen-hole medal test, and the field here promises to bo even stronger than the one which started last week.

1 or in addition to Mars ton, White, Kerr, Topping and others there is a strong probability that John C. Anderson and Ned Sawyer will at? tempt to keep the main trophy in the possession of Westchester hands. Sleepy Hollow offers a big change from Garden City. The latter presents a rolling course, bereft of hills and hollows. It is far from being flat in the accepted sonso of the word.

But its terrain doesn't jut into tho sky. At Sloepy Hollow thero are many holes where tho hills hold guard and where deep "-ravines scowl back at tho con? tender. Here you have not only a test of golf but one of endurance, espe? cially over the route. As it is variety that makes for the spico of life, these contrasts in courses are highly acceptable. If John Anderson and Ned Sawyer enter, as they to, Westchester will have two able guards who are playing fine golf.

Anderson is romp? ing at a merry clip this spring. He has added a foot or more to his back swing, and this addition has added many yards to his drive. A recent 71 at Siwanoy is a fair answer to his May speed. Sawyer is also playing well and is always a rugged opponent in a match. Cornelius J.

Steadiness is a great I factor in golf, but steadiness in tournament play is even more to the point. Leo Maxwell should be a formidable opponent at Sleepy Hollow, possessing as he does a combination of fine abil? ity and a thorough knowledge of tho course. He will be another strong ad? dition to the Westchester forces. The revival of tho metropolitan championship this season at Brook lawn will be quite an affair. There a chance that Jerome D.

Wamby followed with a hit to centre Ping tried to pick it off the grass tops and it rolled through his feet and to the fence. Wamby got a home ru on the hit, and tho three runs whic scored on the play settled the game.

It was a nip and tuck game up this stage, and gave a crowd of mor than 20,000 Cleveland fans seven chances to cheer and groan in turm The homo team specialized up to th fourth inning in getting runners on th bases, and then the Yanks would se that they were stranded there. Mogridge allowed eight hits, seven of them scratches and all far enoug apart to do little damage if his suppoi I held up. The southpaw gave way in eighth to a pinch hitter and the Indiar got their last hit off Allen Russell. Coveleskie, usually a big puzzle I the Yankees, saw many a slam ride its way to vacant spots in the ou field, and as late as the ninth innir Fohl had a relief hurler warming i in the bull pen, fearing that Covelesk might have to go. However, Covt was not hit in bunches, as the Yanke? got no more than two in any fram Every hit made by the visitors was solid smash to the outfield, untouch? by any fielder.

The same could not 1 said about the homo hits. A pass to Tris Speaker started tl Indians on their way in the third i ning after fine opportunities to sco had escaped them in the first ai second. Wood's sacrifico put Tris second, and he moved another ba homeward while Baker, after a gre stop, was throwing Gardner out first. Then the unexpected happened.

MGEEHAN TEE player limit, which was established by the frightened baseball magnates for the current season, has been raised by the National League to twenty-five. The American League shortly will follow suit.

The increase in the limit in the National "League was brought about largely by John J. McGraw, of the Giants, who knows more about i baseball, inside and out, and who has the game more at heart thai? any of the "czars" of the pastime. McGraw particularly knows what the New York baseball fans want? He knew long ago that the hardest thing for a New Yorker to real is i the necessity of economy. When he has a baseball team it must be a winning baseball team. He has no use for the loser and no regard for the piker.

There are some who hold to the idea that a baseball team should consist of nine men, with perhaps a couple of extra pitchers and a utility 1 man or two. The oldtimers resent the idea of a team that carries a list of specialist pinch hitters, men who can hit left-handed pitchers, men who run in a pinch for a slow man on the bases, etc. But big league baseball must be big. Then, too, the baseball player is perhaps the most brittle of all athletes. Take the case of the Yankees, who started a season under Bill Donovan with a full and generous complement of players.

In a few weeks their best players were out of the gamo through injuries, and they had catchers at first and pitchers in the outfield. They got nowhere. This is because the American game, like American business, calls for specialists. The successful ball players, like the successful business some rare specialists. It is well known that Colonels Ruppert and Huston, owners of the 1 Yankees, always have opposed a low player limit.

They are true sports i men, in the game for the love of the game, and have been willing to spend money to put the New York Americans on top. But the league rules have hampered them. The advent of Sunday baseball has removed the necessity of a low player limit on the ground Of economy. It will bring a great deal more money-into the game, arid that money is coming from New York fans. i Owners of the outside teams get a fair share of this when their teams play here.

It is up to them to assent to expenditures which will better the brand of baseball. Otherwise they will not draw in New York. The heads of organized baseball should not be too thick to recognize this. The High Cost of Passes npHE psychology of the pass hunter passes all understanding. You can get a fair seat at the Polo Grounds for eighty-five cent! and Mr.

Shonts will take you there in tolerable comfort or above grounc both ways for one thin dime. But in the afternoon a tired business mar decides that he would like to go to the Polo Grounds and see for himself il the Giants really look that good. He rings up a sporting editor and ask: for a of 'phone, one nickel. He takes a taxi to the one dollar seventy-five. He buys sporting editor a eight? cents.

Sporting editor offers to buy back, but tired business man canno permit eighty cents more. He takes sporting editor to Pol? Grounds in four dollars and something. He pays war tax 01 pass. Add the total yourself. And he could have gone to the Polo Grounds for ninety-five cents ii cash, with change out of the dollar for any luxury that might attract hira English Views on Boxing TN VIEW of the opposition that has developed to the Willard-Dempse fight the sentiment in favor of boxing in Gre.it Britain at the presen writing is interesting.

The following is from "The London Times," and a pretty fair and general expression as to how the English feel in regar to the boxing game: "The groat revival of public interest in boxing is well worth coi sideration from a point of view of national pyschoiogy. Although sport has always had a large and devoted following, it has liad to comb? an enormous amount of prejudice from those who could not bring then selves to see Thore in it than the primitive love of fighting or the cru exploitation of brute force pandering to a neurotic craving for sensatic and excitement. "Before the war this prejudice was undoubtedly beirg overcon gradually, not so much by a more general appreciation of the virtues boxing, but by a marked manifestation of public interest in certa personalities of the such men as Carpentier, Wells, Driscc and were so far removed from the cdncepti? of a pugilist that they were becoming almost a cult. "It is only natural that the fighting era through which the world passing should not only remove prejudices against sports calling courage and endurance, but should stimulate their encouragement, in a general appreciation of the more manly pastimes, which loi periods of prosperous peace relegate to the professional expert, but I the rigorous concentration of all sorts and conditions of men, hither uniniated in the rougher sports, into camps and garrisons, where boxi: and kindred pastimes play an integral part in their training." The Spirit of Adventure -TPHE greatest current sporting event is the transatlantic flight, for is the yielding to the spirit of adventure and the call to somethi beyond mere living. ColumbuB was a sportsman, and Magellan sailing a recoTd.

Ulysses was the great sportsman of legend. David, the figh of the Jews, was the earliest of the fighting sportsmen moved by the spi of adventure to single physical combat against heavy odds. It sound sacrilegous to some to compare Jack Dempsey to his Bibli prototype. But why? And why try to repress the spirit of adventure that finds its vent sport, often sport of the rougher type? Without it nothing great ever achieved. Without it you would have no soldiers, n6 sailors, no pionet no captains of finance.

You would have a melancholy-mad and brood race of men, doing nothing but following the Brisbane urge to th' nothing. Sporting blood is red, healthy blood, and sporting make the world move.

thereby foiling all the professional scouts end getting a pearl that has been glistening on the intercollegiate diamonds. It is a dark secret in the Giant offices, but young Frisch already has received a substantial cash bonus, is now under contract and will soon be playing. Frisch has been playing a sensational game at shortstop and is just the sort of youngster that McGraw can turn into a. world beater.
