CARL MAYS INTENDS.
TO REMAIN IN BASEBALL

V : New York, Aug. 18. Grief-stricken.
Carl Mays declared here today j he will
face accusations that he is a "bean ball"
pitcher on the diamond. The fact that
Chapman died from Injuries he received
when struck by. a ball, pitched by Mays
will not keep the Yankee star out of the
game. . : - . ; , " . j, .
Mays,. a college graduate, intelligent,
.- made a .calm analysis cf his own case.
. - "Any man who believes - ai I pitcher
would deliberately throw a ball! at an
other's head In a ball game Is foolish,"
he said, "Even if such a thing were
done i it is, difficult for me to j nee how
that pitcher could believe he would hit
- the man at . whom h was aiming. I
know, and so does anyone who gives the
matter sei'logs thought, that poof Chap
man was killed because he didn't get
out of the way of the ball that was cer-
. tain to hit him. He crowded the plate.

"My, grief over the accident Is great,
but It Is something that could inot be
helped. I Intend to remain in baseball
and show the fans that things) -which
., have been said of me are either mali
cious: or ill-advised."

Seattle Is the

P. C. Circuit
.. . . , . - - - - - i -1 .
i ' 1 - y P i -
.' By George Berts ! 1 ;
SEATTLE is the best baseball . town
in i the Pacific Coast league today.
This is the opinion ot Judge ; William
Wallace McCredie, president of the Port
land Beavers, , who returned . Monday
from the Puget Sound metropolis, where
he witnessed his club go down to
defeat in five out of seve games.
"We played to more people in Seattle
last week," said the Judge, "than we
have In any " Other city this; season.
Sunday, there were over 8000 paid ad
missions, which is couplet of thousand
more ; than our biggest Sunday crowd
here. : The Seattle fans j are-j baseball
crazy over the remarkable ! spurt of the
Rainier. .
Tuesday, the crippled Bearers will open
a series against the Oakland club, which
seems to have taken anew lease on life.
Last week, the Oaks took! four of the
seven 'games played with the? . Vernon
Tigers and were beaten in i the : last two
contests by the great pitching of Shell
enbach - and Houck, each i of whom let
the Acorns down with four hits.
Del 'Baker, who has been out of the
game for several weeks a account of
an operation, will be forced into the
game Tuesday as the result of injuries
to Frank Tobin and Art j Koehler.
Koehler's leg has been bothering him
greatly and it was only with (difficulty
that he caught the last couple of games
of the series. : - j I . (f ' ' '
The Beaver pitchers did hot lhjve the
stuff on the ball that they S possessed in
the Los Angeles series, but Manager
Walter McCredie is of the i opinion that
their slump is only temporary.

Spirit of Pennant Race Is Killed
By William Slaves MeJfott
(United Sew Btaff Correapondent)
NEW YORK. Aug. 18. The American
league pennant race slies- dead today
with the victim of the 1 tragedy; that
ended it- At the Polo grounds death
struck down out of the sky of fate, and
killed more than a man. Like a t flash
of lightning clearing a sultry country
side it banished the white hot hysteria
of the dramatic three cornered race for
a chance at the world's series and liter
ally altered the mind and mood of the
baseball world. .' -
' Monday millions of men, women and
children in every state were greedily
reading box scores between the leaders
of the struggle that had so brilliantly
fired the interest and imagination. To
day those millions are -speaking in
hushed tone of the player who lies dead
here. - . -.- . -"j '" .
Monday the players on the Cleveland
team were fighting wild men possessed
with the single hypnotic idea of victory
and the wealth that goes with. it. ' Today
they are a dazed group of broken: boys.
' Huddled disconsolately together in a
hotel Jobby, with no thought of glory or
gold, mourning for that comrade , who
gave his life to the game. i
MAT SPELL DEFEAT ;"y"' V, I ' " "
: Ray Chapman's death ! probably spells
defeat for the Cleveland : team. He was
a cog in the machine that cannot be re
placed. The loss of the: race means an
Individual loss of something like $5000
to each member of the club. I spent
about two hours Tuesday talking with
members of the Cleveland team in their
hotel lobby and not once did any player
mention the effect of the loss of Chap
man on the team's - chances. . Jt was
simply not in their minds. As far, as
they were concerned it was over.
' They talked in low tones of their dead
comrade's character and exploits, but
never - a -word of the thing that was
vital to ' them and today ; is as dead as
the man they mourn. I i
"Aw gee," said big Les Kunamaker,
the Cleveland catcher, "Ray was so full
of pep. I remember before the;, game
Monday he looked up an saidu.'Say,
fellows, I know why we haven't been

he said, "and do you remember when

swallowed hard and walked away from

SPEAKER SHAKEN BY GRIEF
; Upstairs Tris Speaker; the Cleveland
leader and Ray Chapman's roommate,'
was locked in his room! so shaken by
grief that he could see no one.
Upstairs was the bride of a year pros
trated by her loss. Outside on the
street, in-trolley cars and subways, m
offices and clubs, the wild-eyed fans of
yesterday were the sad-eyed mourners
of today. : Uptown - the Polo grounds
stadium, Monday Quivering, to the roar
of savage rooting, was empty, a. silent
tomb of the battle spirit that died with
the man who was. killed there. In an
apartment . house on the ' bluff overlook
ing the ball grounds, Carl Mays, the
pitcher who threw the ball that was a
summons to eternity, paced the floor
and" groaned a prayer for the return of
the fatal yesterday. In an undertaking
parlor nearby lay the spiritless clay of
the man who-died, and everywhere was
the gloom that comes when a tragedy in
real life is played out in the , spotlight
of. the national stage.- f f
SPIRIT IS OOSE - ! -' 4-
Baseball is a thing of the. spirit.. The
interest is in the spiritual elements of
high courage and nerve, j- The American
league will function to . the end of the
schedule, but the spirit of the situation
that touched a nation to a very madness
of interest has flown for the moment as
the soul of the player whose death, ban
ished' it. -, - ''': . , ' . - i

today. ''Seems like they ought to some

WORDS JTOT. SEEDED -
His young Wife left Cleveland for New
York, immediately onj hearing that he
had been Injured. She arrived unaware
that he had died. She was met at the
station by the entire Cleveland club, ac
companied by the Rev! Father O'Connor,
a friend of the Daly family, who was to
break the news to hef. but words were
unnecessary. The hews was, written
clear on the faces of the players. She
was the first to speald ' .
"He's dead,' she whispered, and
swayed into the arms, of Tris Speaker,
her husband's roommate and- best friend.
Be It said for the Cleveland players that
every man of them stood bare-headed,
crying openly and uftashamed. They all
knew of the pretty new home out in
Herrin, I1L. Just built if or the dead ball
player and his bride. with the nursery
for the little one expected soon.
MAYS, BROKE XiMAIf
And there Is a tragedy of the living
as well as of the dead. Carl Mays, who
pitched the ball that carried death, is a
broken man. Speaker exonerates him
from all blame in connection with the af
fair as does the district attorney, but
few of those wise in the ways of base
ball believe that his pitching nerve will
survive the shock of having killed a man.
He is the only pitcher in the big leagues
with, an under-hand delivery. Players
say his fast ball is bard to dodge. Clark
Griffith, manager of 1 the Washington
team, declares that the league should
bar his method of pitching. , .
As in every such, accident there are
as ' many - accounts of the manner in
which Chapman was hit as there are
witnesses. Sorrie sayf it was a sharp
breaking in-shoot that he could not
dodge. I can only give my version as,
I saw it. It seemed to me to be a bullet-swift
fast ball that Mays whipped
off his shoe tops. It seemed to me that
it was almost a straight fast one.
Chapman was crouched over the plate.
When the ball hit hpn square in the
temple, I was six inches out of-ny seat.
It seemed to me that I knew it was
going to hit him. As I remembered It
he made no effort to dodge, but re
mained crouched, motionless, apparent
ly hypnotised. ; j
PLAYERS HYPNOTIZED '
Other ball players have been hypno
tized by balls that came straight for
their heads. "Object Struck" some call
it. Roger Bresnahanf was unable to
dodge a ball aimed atjhis head. Frank
Chance could not move his. bead when a
ball was coming directly towards it
and Was hit in the head ' so often that
he became deaf. . j
The ball hit Chapman square on the
temple with a crack that was heard in
every part of the stands. The seport
was so loud that many'; people thought it
had hit the handle of 4iis bat. He
stood for a fraction of a second, abso
lutely motionless and .then sank slowly
back onto the ground resting on his
haunches and elbows, his face a hideous
mask of agony. He rallied after about
five minutes and attempted to walk to
the clubhouse with the assistance of
two men. but collapsed before he had
crossed the diamond. - ..
KKEW EHD WAS COMING ...
He was unconscious most of the night
before his death but in his delirium he
received a knowledge i of his doom be
fore the doctors attending him ' knew
that he was groins "to die. -A. reporter for
a Cleveland, paper was at the hospital
about half an hour before the end.
The attending physician came out and
told him that Chapman had a good
chance to live. The reporter could hear
Chapman moaning inj delirium. ' Most
of his utterances were incoherent, but
every few seconds there came from the
doomed man's Hps the monotonous
prophecy "I'm going to die. I'm going
to die." Within half an hour the
prophecy was fulfilled.! -

much as the Portland Beavers will be
here and there is no diamond available
where admission can be charged outside
of the Vaughn street grounds. This may
mean that the Hardwaremen will have
to defend their position on the home lot
of the Centennials at Seaside.,
Prises will be given to the winners of
the field day contests of the P. B. A.

ernoon. Throwing the baH. base run

unless you choose wisely, you
half-fermented beverasres that the ereat demand for soft drinks has
called forth in a rush. , !
Drink Schlitz in Brown Bottles- It is wholesome, fully fermented, and
then Pasteurized. These processes take time.

When you make bread, you .allow it to ferment fully, rise to double"
its bulk. l-Then you bake it, to kill the ferment which is a living
organism After fermentation is complete, the ferments should be
killed. They have done their work. - - '
So with iSchlitz. It is aged fermented fully ripe. Then ft is
Pasteurized so as to kill the ferments, which, as living organims, are
r not good for the stomach. i
When we say Schlitz is pure, we mean that it contains no Iving
. organisms to ferment in your stomach.
Why trifle wiJi a two-day "rapid-transit' beverage?. It is bound
to make youf 1 stomach resentf uL Order Schlitz- and be certain of
pleasant after-effects. j .
