Twelve innings of the kind of baseball

passed balls and wild pitches. Twelve
innings, blngle-studdcd, home-run-strewn
and full of baseball Hip-flaps.
Pshawl what's the use of going further.!
Twelve innings, and the Giants lOBt. 4 to
6; tost a gam mind you, that they snould
not have lost lost a game after getting
eft in front. It was the same old story
of Hoffman again. Until he made his
xnlscue in the fifth inning. Ell Catcs had
the Commuters shut out. He made a nice
top of Jimmy Byrnes' line drive, knocked
it down, and then made a weird heave to
Mike Mitchell, and Kelly, who had sin
gled. romped home. When this happened
the Giants -wore still one to the good. In
the opening inning Van Buren gave the
fans a fit by making a home run with the
ball never getting more than three feet
from the ground after it left the bat. With
any kind of fielding the wallop would not
have passed for more than a single. It
slipped past Kelly, who guards the key
stone sack, romped merrily into the out
garden, between conterfleld and rightfleld.
and while the ancient Van Haltren was
trying to pick the ball out of the dust
Van Buren was breaking records going
around the circuit. Van Haltren's toss to
Franks was a bad one, and by the time
the Deacon crossed the plate the ball was
just reaching the infield.
Forecast of Future.
This auspicious opener was only a fore
oast of what kind of baseball was coming.
McHalc's two-bagger became a run In the
second inning, and Householder's two-bagger
scored Schlafly, who had walked In
the sixth Inning. This made it look like
a cinch for the locals. Signs of trouble
came in the seventh canto. Frank Rich
ards, one of Oakland's new recruits from
Iowa, who filled In Kruger's place in right
field, opened this inning with a three
bagger. Calos walked Kelly. Everything
up ailed trouble. Cates added Moskiman
to hie string o fstrikc-outs, but there was
lots of danger in sight. Devereaux hit
into a double play, from Schlafly to Atr
to Mitchell, and right here lot's say that
this double, not because It helped Port
land out of a tight hole, was one of the
fastest ever seen on the local diamond.
This was only a forerunner of the big do
ings. In the eighth Inning Van Haltren
led off with a double to center. Franks
pushed one safe, and Dunleavy Dunlcavy
who hasn't been stinging the ball lately
poked one high ovor the garden wall, scor
ing Van Haltren. Franks a nd himself,
making It 4 for Oakland and 3 for Port
land. Told in Ninth and Twelfth.
Now it looked like curtains for the lo
cals. But the ninth Inning was yet to
become history. McLean fell upon one of
Ham Iberg's teasers and hit for two sta
tions. McHale scored him with a single
and tied the score. Right here Is where
Manager McCredie tossed his game away
and displayed a sad piece of field general
ship. He started to take Hoffman out of
the game, and he made a grievous error
when he changed his mind. Hoffman has
been about as much use to the Giants as
a child In swaddling cloths would be. Ho
should have batted for Hoffman himself,
and then. If It had been necessary, placed
McHale at third and played the outfield
himself. Why he did not do this is hard
. to fathom. Oakland might have won the
game anyway, but It would have shown
that some one was -doing some thinking.
McCredie knows that he can hit the ball.
He knows that Hoffman cannot. As it
was, he struck out. McHale was caught
off first and down, but Cates came
through with a hit. and chances are that
had McCredie faced Iberg, he would have
hit safe.
The tie-up held until the twelfth Inning.
In this canto two singles and a base on
balls did the trick. McHale's error helped
matters also. From now on all the Oak
land players will be sleeping in their uni
forms. Yesterday the three new Iowa
players Joined Van Haltren. They were
Frank Richards, third baseman; Tom
Hackott, catcher, and Pitcher Melville
Blexrud.

WARtf'S GLORY DEPARTED
Marvelous Work at Nets Marks
Transfer of National Honors to
Boston Man Close Con
test at Nets.
NEWPORT, R. I.. Aug. 31. After many
years the aspirations of Beats C. Wright,
of Boston, for the National tennis cham
pionship was crowned with success In his
defeat of Holcombe Ward, of Orange, N.
J., the title-holder, on the Casino courts
today. In straight sets. Scores were: 6-1,
C-2. 11-9.
The pair won the championship In dou
bles last week for the second time, and,
having played together for so long a time
and knowing each other's game so well,
their contest today was looked upon with
much Interest. Wright's superiority,
which, for two sets' was almost master
ful, and for a greater part of the third
was well marked, was the feature of the
contest. Both men played a strong, re
sourceful and well-planned game, but
Wright was able to carry off his strokes,
while it was not until almost the eleventh
hour, the tenth game of the third sot.
that Ward managed to gauge the height
of the net or the boundary of the opposite
court. With Wright within two points
of tho match. Ward began to get the balls
somewhere out of Wright's reach, and
within a very short time the set becamo
a deuce affair.
For ten games the crowd, which num
bered more than 1000 and Included hun
dreds of followers of the game through
out the country, saw some of the best
tennis ever played on a Casino court.
Both men covered court In a mnrvelous
manner. Seemingly impossible balls were
reached and not only returned over the
net. but were placed In a way that al
lowed the player to get back Into posi
tion. Both men ran In on their services and
both carried off their service games. As
it was Ward's first service, he was al
ways getting the vantage game, only to
lose It when Wright won his service, and
brought the set back to deuce. Once
Ward was within a stroke of the set- At
the last, after 18 games had been played.
Wright found a weak spot In Wright's
defense and won the vantage game. The
next game, which was the last, was eas
ily for the Boston man. as Ward drove
out of bounds, and the championship
went to Wright.

Dave Barry Loses to Tommy Burns
in an Uninteresting Contest.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Aug. 31. With
a full right swing Hush to the Jaw. Tom
my Burns, of Canada, tonight knocked
out Dave Barry, of San Francisco, In the
20th round. The first 13 rounds were very
tame, and the crowds continually called
upon the men to fight. In the 15th Burns
caught Barry with a right to the Jaw
which sent him down for the count. He
arose very groggy, but managed to last
out the round.
In the last round Burns landed several
hard right swings, finally knocking Barry
out. The men weighed in at 15 pounds.
The first preliminary, between Mauro
Herrera and the "Montana Kid," was a
draw. Joe Angelll and Fred Landers gave
a good exhibition, which the referee
called a draw.
