Davidson Wins, but Is Merciful:
Having been vindicated by both the
National Board and tha National Com'
mission in fining ana suspending Gue
Kellerman, the Dallas shortstop who
struck Umpire Nugent, President
Davidson, of the Texas League, showed
that he could be merciful by lifting
the suspencion on Kellerman. The
presumption is he thought the lesson
had been learned. Kellerman is the
youngster who trained witn the Port
land Club in March at Santa Maria.
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.

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.

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

wind and one of them tipped over,
but it was a bathing suit afternoon

posed the doubles team which won the
ranoe race. F. Newton and C. Hastorf

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

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.
