"Joey" played goal for one of the best hockey teams in Boston last winter and further enhanced the re- putation made by him at R.M.C. and Queen's, The Plumbers and Lakeviews are promising a snappy exhibition of baseball this evening. Many fans have expressed a desire to see these teams competing. During the baseball season it is a rare thing to see any player limping about or carrying a black eye or streak of court plaster, but wait till the rugby season begins. During an ordinary week of prac- tise Bille Hughes' headquarters at Queen's Stadium look like an emerg- ency hospital. Is that promised lacrosse game be- tween Deseronto and Cornwall going to materialize this week? Have Queen's a chance to be play- had safe in 12 games in which he garnered 18 safe blows in 48 times at the bat for a percentage of .376 and scored 9 times. Babe Ruth of the Yankees after scoring ten runs in 7 straight games, was stopped by the Indians on Aug. 3rd, Sydenham vs. Tanners. AFhough the Tanners secured six hits to the three of the Sydenham team in an exhibition game at the classic village on Saturday afternoon, they came out on the short end of a 6 to 1 score. The Kingston team brought along all sorts of reinforce- ment for their lines hut might have been better off had they played their regular team as they were up against an aggregation with a record for few flelding errors, Karl Quinn, in seven innings on the mound, struck out five, and Cherry, folowing in the eighth and nigth, fanned one. The feat was duplicated by Sydenham when A. Lee, in the first seven rounds, sent five back to the bench and Young fanned one in the last two innings. The teams: Tanners--A.

The left-hander"s main hope in sport seems to be baseball Lew. Tendler is one of the few in polite boxing circles who has got anywhere. There have been great left-handed tennis players, with Norman Brookes the headlight, but the majority vote is the other way, including THden, Johnston, Richards, Williams, Pat- terson, ete, At the recent open golf champion- ship from a fleld of 327 starters there was no sign of a left-hander on the fleld. No left-hander hes ever won a national open or amateur championship, either here or in Great Britain. But baseball welcomes them home. Eisler and Cobb are left-handed hit- ters. So are Speaker, Ruth, Wil- Hams, Collins, Daubert and most of the elite, with Horneby the great ex- ception. And if Hornsby were a left-hander, with the shorter right field fences to Alm at, his home-run mark to-day would be nearer forty than thirty. ------ The Man o' War Foal.

The inability of the Yankees to score runs for Carl Mays this season shows how the law of average usual- ly operates in baseball. In 1920 and 1921, especially last year, Mays had more runs to work upon than any other pitcher in baseball. Mays pitched well last season, but time after time Carl was able to loaf home, There was a solid month in which the Yanks did not score less than ten runs for Carl, Without hav- ing the exact figures available we venture to say that fully one third of the 948 rung scored by the Yanks BEFORE TME BABY CAME WAS A HANDSOME SORT - OF GINK ing will tell the tale, at any rate, $ A> / son they have scored less runs for him than any other pitcher on the Yankee staff, Qlants' Best Chance To Secure Shortstop Though almost every major lea- gue olub in the country is after Joe Boley, the splendid shortstop of the Baltimore Club and the Orioles' lead- ing hitter, it is said that the Glants are almost certain {0 get him and the price tag will read $100,000. Any- way, it is the one best bet that Boley will not be with the Orioles next season. Dunn has made up his mind in regard to that. ------ e---- » No Wonder, Howard Lohr, former big league outfielder, whom the Leafs were af- ter a short time ago, is one chap at least who is cleaning up in indepen- dent baseball. Howard receives $159 & week for playing five nights a week with a local twilight team. On Sat- {urdays and Sundays he plays with and manages the Paterson Silk Sox team and gets $75 a game. In addi- tion, he makes $200 a month in an office job with a railroad. The other day a certain major league club of- fered Lohr a contract and he laugh- ed at the figure in it. ---------------- The Playfellow Case.

The Yanks stopped scoring behind Mays in the world's series, when he lost the fourth and seventh games of the series by scores of 4 and 2 to 1. Last season when Carl was an- nounced as New York's pitcher all of the Yanks felt a big batting day come upon them. This year the pendulum has ewung to the other extreme. The Yanks have been in a batting trance whenever Car! has pitched.
