With Senators Second Two Years Possibility of Detroit, Copping Pennant and' Leaving Them In : Lurch Again Diticus&cd. - NEW YORK, May 30. (Special.) Of all places in the world, Cincinnati who would expect a dark horse to bear the name of Cincinnati? The unani mous answer is "nobody." Porkville haa not landed its entry among the firftt ttiT-e In thd . t l.,..ni T .... I since a full decade ago and the Idea of the Keds being that high has not en tered the minds of. any but Cincin nati fans during the last five years. Since the Spanish War in 1898 only one National League club has done worse year in and year out than the Reds, This outfit is the St Louis crew of Cardinals, whose high spot was fourth place, reached In 1901. Since then the Cardinals' best was fifth place, at tained in 1904 and again in 1911. The Reds were third In 1898, and then land ed these places in order, , 7, 8, 4. 4, 3, S, ti 8, S, 4, 5, 6, 4 and 7. In that stretch of 15 seasons the average land ing place of the Rhinelanders was be tween fifth and sixth. But now look at present-day Reds. The Reds have been acting recently as if they considered themselves a real baseball team. They have been going along on high gear high for them ever since May 6, when they Just got through being whaled by the Pirates. Their winning streak has not been one of those continued strings of unbroken successes. It has been rather like the usual clip of a pennant contender not calling the Reds any pennant contend er, though witji a victory or two and then a defeat. Outside of their poor start In the first three weeks they have paced along just a little under a .666 rate, doing about the same grade of work each week. Consistent pitch ing, good enough to give the batters a chance to win each day, has been backed up by better than average field ing, and the attack of the club both with the maulstick and by sprinting on bases has surprised even the partisans of the team. -Charley Herzog is certain to fulfill one of two prophsies made for him when ha took hold of the Cinclnnatians. About ha'lf the base-ball writers of the country held the idea that Herzog was inclined to be too hotheaded and hasty In everything and therefore not fitted to command the respect of his charges. The other half thought that his super lative supply of pepper would ginger up the deadish sopfol gang that had labored in the hot Cincinnati sun for the last few years and that this one element of added spirit would prove a telling factor for the advancement of the club. In the beginning the first prognosti cation bade fair to come true with much gusto. Herzog had a run-in with Cuban Armando Marsans that nearly caused the star outfielder to jump to the Feds, and then Chief Johnson, the big Winnebago Indian, actually did hop, just as Wickland and Packard had deserted the club before him. Now the Reds seem to be trying for Herzog, fol lowing his lecture to them In which he said: "Yez kin all flop if yez want ter; I ain't got no use fer no dom fules on dis club." From little Heinle Groh up to big Hoblizell each man appears to be doing his level best, to judge by the returns. Had it not been for the crazy Tinker deal by meana of which Ebbets of Brooklyn became famous as founder of the Federal League, Herzog probably would have at least one or two more good ball players on his roster men who could have been obtained in ex change for the former manager and the Reds might have been even more of a menace by now. As it is they are threatening to cut more ice in the Na tional League campaign than any other Cincinnati aggregation since the third-placers of 1904, and third place is not an Impossible destination for them if they continue the way they have started. ' e The American League battle Is al most certain to be a three-club affair after the halfway mark is passed un less some new factors are injected Into the situation. Detroit, Washington and the Athletics will be In the same gen eral vicinity In the table of standing on August 1, with a fair-sized gap sep arating them from those below, to judge from the present playing speed of the three. - Cleveland, of course, and also New York, Chicago, Boston and St. Louis appear weaker than the tri umvirate and probably will be forced to satisfy themselves with a scrap for the lower positions. x Clark Griffith said during the Win ter that, since he beat out the 1911 champion Athletics in 1912 and did the same thing to the 1912 champion Red Sox in 1913, his Senators are due to lead both these clubs this year. Just suppose he is right Wouldn't It be i tough kick of fate If he should do ex. actly this thing this year and yet loss the pennant, with the Detroitsrs of Hughey Jennings- copping It? Think of the feelings of the man in such an event Second place three years In succession with a different team on top each time! No world's series coin, despite the best average grade of performance, put up by any club In all that time! And Walter Johnson, the greatest pitcher in the world, unable to start in - a single world's settles! Should this occur It would be the hardest break in luck we ever heard of in connection with ths National game. PKINTTrrLLE TO PLAY KMGHTS Tlioinas W.

VIRGINIA SECOND IN RACE Columbus nine, of Portland, is to be one of the main features of the Fourth of July celebration to take place here. R. C. Hughes, manager of the Portland team, completed arrangements with the local management last week. The Prinevllle team is composed of former college players from the East and Middle West The home team haa a record of defeating the Multnomah Club, O.-W. R. & N. Company Grays and the Weonas, all-of Portland, and since then Henry McCall, son-in-law of Thomas W. Lawson, has strengthened the locals. McCall is said to have played second base on the Harvard University team and he was considered one of the heaviest hitters ever turned out at that Institution. Game Protection Planned by Lewis. CENTRALIA, Wash.. May 30. (Soe- clal.) A convention of Lewis County sportsmen is to be held in Centralia soon for the purpose of organizing a Game Protective Association. Lewis County Game Commissioner Mills was present at a meeting this week and urged that the farmer and hunter work together for the preservation of birds. He also announced that 22,000 trout have been planted In county streams and that a plan is on foot for locating a fish hatchery In this county, the state to stand half the expense and the county half. Ralph Grnman to Get Cliance. SAN FRANCISCO. May 80. (Special.) Ralph Gruman, of Portland, is to have a considerable test of his capa bilities the first Friday night In June when he meets Johnny O'Leary in the main event of one of the four-round cards. O'Leary is something short of being championship caliber, but at the same time no one can deny that he is a mighty clever boxer. Gruman, as has been remarked. Is looked upon as a comer, but he will have his work cut out for him if he wants to carry away the decision. Minor League Manager Quits. Marty Hogan. one of the most suc cessful managers in the minor-leagues, has about retired from the game for good, unless something good turns up. He is now In Youngstown, O., conduct ing a hotel.

Mendenhall's Virginia was sec ond. H. F. Todd's Grayling third. Stanley Hazlett 3 Swallow fourth, and C. Hastorfs Spindrift fifth. It'was the most successful day the Oregon Yacht Club has had in cele brating the opening of the season on tha Willamette. Fully 1000 persons were on the floats or joined In the programme of many races. feholin gets all the credit for the race, for there was enough of a wind ko take a good Bailor to win. The race started at the Oaks. The turning post was at the Hawthorne bridge. The boats were gone less than an hour be fore the prow of the Sparrow was visible from behind the upper end of Ross Island. The Virginiavas quite a distance to the rear. The others were bunched Two of the boats failed. Crayllma- Picked to Win. For months the seadogs have been doping the Grayling or the Virginia as winners. The Sparrow is getting old. She has been winning races for years .under the hand of Arthur Sholin and it was hardly expected that she could win agsin. But the veteran '"carde back." Other events of the afterfnoon were the canoe and motorboat races. The canoes had a hard time lit the heavy wind and one of them tipped over, but it was a bathing suit afternoon anyway so there was no damage done. Sholin and Hailrll Win. Arthur Sholin and H. Hazlett com posed the doubles team which won the ranoe race. F. Newton and C. Hastorf finished second. The motorboat. Tiny Mite, won the "baiig-and-go-back" race. Bob Bain in the Golden West finished second. Such big boats as the Manasquan. T. J. Mendenhall's beautiful cruiser, had too much work turning. The win ners were both small vessels. George Martin won the swimming events over Ted Preble. A special race for Kvinrudc-quipped boats was won by George Kenneth, with Dr. I'ajunen second. Vlmltor Taken on Trips. Following the races, visitors were taken out for short trips in the sail boats and those who were not used to the sensation of flying spray declared that they had exciting trips. Last night the sailors went on the dance floor and until midnight they -paddled the maple" in the cool hreeze off the river. Dinner parties were in order at each of the houses. One in particular. No. 3. had such a load that the diners were given blocks of wood to keep the sea off their stock ings. The regatta committee in charge of the programme was: Arthur Sholin. H. F. Todd and A. T. Brown. Dr. K. M. Emerson acted as starter. HAL.PH 1SOSE KECOR1) BROKEN McDonald Put Shot 4 Pcet 2 3-4 Inches for New World Mark. NEW YOHK. May 30. At Celtic Park. Long Island, today, Patrick J.
