Called out to .beat the Sals or tak ths train for ( some distant point, George Ilelf rich' Urnexl riarry Wolver ton's school in a way they hare not been tamed this series or few other series of the young1 season. Manager McCredle somehow got It Jnto his head that Helfrlch was not fast enough for the Coast league, and the Harrisburg lad started out to ahow the boss ho was wrong in the prem ise. After yesterdays performance Manager Mac will start the cool youngster from the New York State league In regularly. Anybody who can win -636 of his tames on a club that finished last with ait average of .481, an" absolute last In an eight club league, must be somo pitcher. It is quite true that young Mr. Hel frlch owns no fast ball like Slim lAve, but he has a "spltball" that will fool a lot of thm. At any rate it fooled the rip-roaring Seals. Oo to it, llelfrich! sals Get But rive Kits. Ths score was 5 to 1 and the Seals got but five hits from the spitballist, three of which were made In the third frame The Beavers led from the Start, thanks to an oocentrlc home run off the bat of Babe Hollocher la the first frartle. Steen pitched good ball, but when Wolverton saw that Helfrlch was un beatable he tried a pinch hitter for Steen and then the locals proceeded to gather off Redskin Smith. Hollocher' homer was surely a freakish one. It looked like a clean double down the first base line. Fitz gerald dashed over to grab it and his outstretched paws deflected the agate over the netting Into the right field bleachers. While Holly was making his way around the paths, the Seals were making a mild protest on the allowing of the homer. Then Jrty Boots One. The freak of fate evidently non plussed Jerry Downs, for he booted Rodgers' ground ball. Wille scratched a hit through Pick, and Farmer sac rificed. Borton's infield out allowed Rodgers to tally. The Seals halved the count In the third with two out. Fitzgerald bounced one off the right field fence for two sacks. Schaller pumped one through Rodgers and Fltz scored, but PlckT strayed too far off first In mak--ing his twin, and was caught off, ' Wllle to Borton. . Babe Hollocher had a busy period In the seventh, figuring in all tho plays. First he erred -on .Schaller's grounder. Then he picked Downs' grounder off the grass, sprinted to second for a forceotit and wlnpred Jeff ry ajt first He made a beautiful cap ture and throw to first of KoernerS long grounder. The Seals tried a batting rally in the eighth. With one out. Baker walked. Then McKee was sent up to hit for Steen, but lofted to Williams. Fitzgerald otngled to center, but Pick was thrown out by Rodgers and the flare was smudged. And Bow the Blow-Up. Chief Smith was brought on to face the Beavers in the eighth. Rodgers started with a beaten out hit to the Indian. Wllle sacrificed and Jack off the left field fence, scoring Rodgers. Borton followed with a dou- ! Los Angeles, April 28. (P. N.

Williams' infield out put Bor- j In their double header this afternoon ton on third and he scored on a wild I before a crowd of wind-swept, half pitch. Siglin singled to left and went ; frozen spectators. The busy Bees on to second as the ball rolled through grabbed the. first game, 3 to 2. and Schaller's legs. Another walked and , stole second. Then Helfrlch walked and filled the bases. By this time Hoi locher had run out of hits and filed to Fltssgerald. Helfrlch tightened up in ths ninth and met the attack of the Seal heavy . . . . . . .

BUT FOURTEEN MAJOR PLAYERS STOLE MORE THAN THIRTY BASES Ty Cobb Was "Leader in the American and Max Carey in National. New Tork, April 28. Any major league ball player who pilfers 20 or more bases In a season is considered a pretty fair base runner. It takes speed to run the bags, but it also takes a good head, for the sue- v, ,a mu.t cessful baae ru.ner fis a ruie must have the ability to know when and , ' . how to steal. The player who packs several pounds of .olid ivory between Mr I a mark for the Pitchers and catchers when he gets on the sacks unless he hugs them pretty close, no matter how much speed he has A glance at the 1916 averages of th two hlr leagues reveals there were only 14 players In fast company last season who burglarised 30 bases or Season who v"StMiMimi Sn.dc. n. more.

The average major league club Is capable of pilfering about 166 bases L season, so it is easy to see why any club that accounts for 200 stolen bases has some class In this department of the grand old pastime. The pitchers In the major leagues are constantly being coached in the art of holding runners on first base, and the first-string catchers have developed deadly pegs to the keystone that cut off many an ambitious runner. It is tough to steal 80 or more bases a season. There's no doubt sbout that.

Bobby Quinn Given JYelcome in Majors "Bobby Quinn, thai new business manager of ths St. Louis Browns, will get a hearty welcome as he travels around ths American league circuit this summer, for there is not a better known figure in the major or minor leagues tL-an the smiling little old-time catcher. , During the meetings of ths major leagues in New Tork last winter Quinn was a familiar figure around the hotel lobbies. Everybody knows Quinn. and everybody has a "HeUo Bobbie, how arei yah?" for him every - time he steams Into view. When Joerephus Tinker became president and manager of the Cotum bus American Association club . and Quinn stepped down and out with former president Sehoenborn, it looked aa though hs bad said good-bye to ths gams after being; connected with it continuously for 20 years. But when Branch Rickey left ths Browns to be come president of the Cardinals Phil Bail went after Quinn, and hs is to be congratulated on landing s tMisfhess manager who knows svery angle of ths gams from ths box effle to the bench.' i Soables.
