By Al C. Joy. '
Ran Francisco, Cal., Aug. 1. Despite
tha warlike behavior of Kaiser Frank
Leavitt, emperor of tha Oaks, the
belligerent Beavers turned loose with
their -heavy artillery today and won
another victory, 7 to 2.
The kaiser sat on a high elevation
, much ' distance away and thought
1 dreadful things about the umplfes. lie
didn't say then out loud, but oh, how
. .he did think 'em! And the battle raged
... '. . on. ' ;.
Sometimes the umpires are termed
arbitrators. - '
' If they really are arbitrators, the
k alner la opposed to arbitration. Ap
' patently,, the German army that
" "stepped up to the kaiser's pay window
v on the first and fifteenth of each
month had recovered from Its panic
of Friday, and was determined to do
its stolid. If, inefficient, .best. The
v-,! Oaks, fought not for their altars or
their fires, but just-to fill In the nine
Innings. Neverthelesw, they snowed
- ; marked Improvement mentally over
: their behavior of Friday. 'Tis true
. ' they- lost, but tliey did not .fill our
- souls with rage or pity.
- Kigg in Form.
' H While1 vthe fuming kaiser chewed
a perfectly good cigar Into tatters,
Irve lllggtnbotham, subduer of Gcr-
, , mans, engineered the Beavers to vic-
. tory. He pitched a four hit game.
On the other hand, Harry Abies, oc
. cupylng a strategic position from
-Which he had a blrdseye view of the
. battleground and plenty of opportunity
;- to look into' the weak points of the
enemy, was not equal to the situa-
tion. 'While he was looking the
Beavers were acting. They punched
1 many holes In the Abies ego in the first
, seven Inriings, after which, the Texan
.laed German retired In favor of Tyler
Christian, who has long striven vainly
tt Introduce the Oaks to Christian Scl
'nce... ; In 'the",.aeeo'nd inning. Gunner Abies,
losing hie range. Issued a walk to
Korerir-;afid Leber's sacrifice and a two
' bagger by Derrick "sent over' a run.
Rodger doubled In -the sixth. Then
Da via and Korea bunted In succession,
' ' and Captain Bill scored.
So far, however, the trend of eent
. . , had not been in accora witn custom,
t ' The Oak's had. managed to keep them-
selves- looming up aa possibilities. To
V .'do theni Justice, they may be consia
ered possibilities at almost any time,
but they must be registered as Im
probabilities with a capital 1,
- Wild Pitch Starter.
' la the seventh the invading Beavers
broke loose. They needed rations, per
, haps, and so set out to gather in some
- German noodles. If Kaiser Wilhelm's
troops are as shy In the noodles as Kal-
- ser Leavltt's, Berlin is going to have a
: Russian governor before the Germans
realize it.
'. ( Iq thia seventh inning Buddy Ryan
drew a walk. Yants sacrificed and
j Hlggiahotham went to first on a third
-strike that was a wild pitch, Bancroft
. singled. . Then Bill Speas tripled.
. Thus three runs were scored. Rodgers
- - walked and Captain Bill and Speas
uccesafully manipulated the double
'steal, Speas scoring. Bobby Davis was
out on a wonderful pickup by Guest.
,But then came Art Korea with the in
Sacramento, Cal.i Aug. l.--Behlnd
vvhat. the record book may show is the
truth that today's session between the
Tigers and Wolves was not a ball
game. The Tigers had their batting
togs on and the Sacramento pitchers
did not have anything on the ball.
The Venetians as a result hit safely
In every inning, piled up 21 hits, and
made them count for 1' runs, while
the Wolves were only able to gather
three tallies 'after f'leharty had re
lieved Hoy Hitt.
Bill Malarkey. tried it and left seven
runs and two men on as Ray Kremer's
inheritance. Hosp .met Kremer's first
pitched ball for a double that cleaned
the bases of what Malarkey had left.
Captain Wolverton assumed a dis
gusted look and wandered out to the
mound himself in the eighth and the
Tigers proceeded to disabuse his mind
of any ideas that be might still be a
pitcher, by pounding in three runs.
While Roy Hitt was on the mound
the Wolves made only three hits in six
innings. When Venice was leading, 11
to 0, Fleharty took the mound In the
seventh and the Wolves managed to
bunch up five hits in the next two in
nings for three runs.
The Tigers had 27 men on the bases
during the slugfest and hit safely in
every inning, bunching their hits in
six out of nine frames.

San Francisco, Aug.. 1. Charlie
White and Joe Asevedo will furnish
the next entertainment for fistic foU

are to go 20 rounds on August 7, and.

tion xo get a matcn with Freddie

carry with it more than the -monetary

White has made a fine lmDresslon
by his work in' the sparring: bouts at
the Seal Rock house. The Chicasro
ooy is fast and puts lots ; of force
into his blows. Since taking up his
quarters on the ocean beach he has
put on weight and will probabjy weigh
more in inis contest with Azevedo
man be ever, did In a ring- before.
As a rule White does not weigh
more than 129 pounds In the ring but
he has jumped. up tq. 132 now and his
manager, Nat Lewis, says he will
be about 131 when he boxes Asevedo.
That will make the match almost an
even affair as far as poundage is con
cerned, as Azevedo can make 132 with
out any. trouble. The weight for this
match is 133 pounds so that both boys
will get into' action without having to
go tnrougn any reducing process.
Match With. Sltcaie Expected.
The winner of the bout will prob
ably be matched with - Willie Ritchie
for a fall match unless the former
champion wants to take a rest now
that Tie .has no crown pressing on ills
temples. wuiie will be home soon
now and we wllU then get the first
hand account of the London bout
which seems to have hurt Willie's
feelings. He. had nothing to say about
the verdict at the time, but the more
he thinks about it the more Ritchie
feels that he was robbed. By the time
he gets here Referee Corri will prob
ably be in the highwayman class.

Br Hal Sheridan.
New York, Aug. 1. Christy Mathew-
son. one of the greatest pitchers the
game Has ever known, said the recent
21 inning game in Pittsburg between
the New York Giants and . Pittsburg
Pirates was the most magnificent ex
hibition of baseball that he ever saw.
Larry Doyle's home run won the game
for the Giants.
"It was great" said Mathewson,
"because the game had all the differ
ent elements of baseball and was not
one of those dull affairs where no one
was able to hit There was everything
that goes to make a game exciting and
we were as nervous as the wildest fan
in the stand."

Dave Fultz, president of the Players'
fraternity, who recently made Ban
Johnson, big mogul of baseball, back
down In the Kraft case, receives but
$2000 yearly for his services. The
amount that Fultz draws down 'was
made public through the desire of one
of the directors to disprove the rumor
that rich financial rewards induced
Fultz to take up the cause of the play
ers. This director also . furnished
proof of the fact that Fultz . recently
refused a boost In salary, pointing out
the need Of a "fat treasury as a future
protective measure."
A prominent member of the New
York Giants asserts that the team
would have stood by the fraternity had
a strike been ordered as a result of the
Kraft dispute, but that all were glad
that a clash was avoided.
But you may rest assured,' he said.
"that all of the members. of the fra
ternity would have walked out if it
had come to a- showdown. It would
have meant a heavy loss to us, as we
tuna we nave a cnance to get part of
the world series money, but we had
made up our minds to stand it until
things could be straightened out"

Is Unique Champion.
For Wilding Is a unique champion. -He
has acquired the genius of his ,
craft. His entry into BngllKh tentus
foreshadowed little .of the dlatlnctloa
and succohs he has achieved. Ills,
heavy and rather stilted style sug- ?
gested nothing of the potential cham
pion. He was Just the plain, ordi
nary type of player who crowds the.
courta today. His father was a lawn
tennis enthusiast, anxious for his soa r
to win success In the game, and un--
der his strict and painstaking coach
ing the youth who was to become a
champion was moulded. The style, if
one may say so, was home-made. It
had several obvious faults. Now they
have disappeared. Wilding ia a New s
Zealander by birth. 32 years ago, but
he is an English lawn tennis player
by teaching, study and manufacture. -t
Wilding entered English lawn ten
nis when the school was far richer :
In talent than-, at the Present time. '
and be was an apt pupiV quick, to
grasp the methods of -thsT master
The individuality of the man is so J
strong that it Cannot be said that ha
has moulded his style on that of any
particular plsyotv but Wilding would
be the first ko admit the benefits he
gained 'from the teachings of ths ;
Dohertys and others. He realized bis F
own limitations, and with a thor-
oughnesa that waa extraordinary set
to work to lessen them. To a vary
large extent his triumph has coma as
the result of his own unaided effort,
lie fashioned his style best to suit hi
own abilities, and today we, can see-:,
the almost perfect player.
r Practiced for Hours.
He is described a the C. B. Fry of
tennis, and the description is a good
one. in the sense thst each has
made" himself. Stories are told, of
ow Wilding spent hours In the fives
court during his undergraduate days
at Cambridge, playing the same shot
time after time until it came correct
ly and easily to him; how be woull
pay a boy to throw the ball up to him
in order that he might practice hit
ting overhead, and how, with the
same' inexhaustible patience, he de
voted months to acquiring the English
method of playing with ' the baclc
hand. For a long time after comlngr
Into open competition Wilding was
weak on the left hand side of the
court but he never went back, though
the temptation must have been great
to the style of striking the ball on
the back hand with the same side it
the racquet as Cat used for the for)
hand stroke.
The only doubt about the Wilding
of today Is bow good be really is, and
what rank he takes amongst the
celebrities of the game. Most of the
stiffness has gone out of his style,
and there is a glorious freedom about
hie strokes. Ills fore hand . drive,
made with great power that is splen
didly controlled, is his cbleT strength.
but he is confident and thoroughly re
liable on the back hand. . -
He Has Jffo Weakness. -
He has no weakness that aa opponent
can play "on to" and exaggerate, and
that is the secret of his success. . And
with all his soundness there is Juat
that touch of brilliance one can hard
ly call ft genlua to lift him above hie
rivals and claimants to the title of
champion of the world. .
No man has ever deserved the title
of world's champion better than this
New Zealand born and English msde
player.. When Maurice McLoaghlln
came to Wirableton last summer some
of those whose memory went back 40
years, and that is practically the fun
lifetime or the game, hailed the youns
American t- the -champion of cham
pions. Wilding beat McLoughlln. In
three straight sets.
