That's the kind of day it was. Bellringer featured for Live Wires with four hits in five trips, Francis running him close with two walks and a hit in four appearances. The Wires stole four bases and had nine errors of different kinds. Hussars ran away with Howard's bags and stole nine during the course of the game.

Like Young Stribling of America, Burlie is a product of the stage and began boxing at the early and un- doubtedly tender age of five, his older brother furnishing the opposition in bouts staged before the foot-lights. His brother Alec, incidentally, is now a professional and is esteemed as the leading fiyweight, of the Do- minion, TENNIS TALKS By Mercer. Beasley y Thirty-five Rules in Tennis But Few Know Them, There are 35 rules in tennis. How many of these does the average play- er know? Recently the writer con- ducted a test on rules and the result was astonishing. Taking, we will say, 20 players of all classes and grades, there were certain rules that were simply murdered outright. The general idea seemed to be that it a player didn't know the ryles it was a safe bet that his opponent did- n't either, so why worry? The rule that is most abused is the foot-fault rule. A running start, & jump, beating the hit, and even serving from the far corners qf the doubles court in a singles match are some of the things permitted, accord- ing to my answers received. Next comes the catching, or stop- ping, of the ball as it is on its way out of court. Of course it saves time to catch the ball and say out. But the rule says that is wrong. What about changing sides after the odd game? How can a match be played if this is not done? Rule 24 directs that this shall be done. If not, the match is illegal. There seems to be no way of get- ting by the rules that govern tennis. There should be no attempt to evade them. There is, however, a gross amount of carelessness shown by players everywhere in regard to rules. + Recently one of the first 10 rank- ing players of this country was play- ing In a match and in making a shot his racket slipped out of his hand and went into thé net. He got the ball over for a placement. 'When the point was called against him he protested and asked that hs be shown a rule that would cost him & point under such circumstances. Well, he was shown all right, and bad to confess before a large gallery that he didn't know the rules of his own sport. Umpires at the Davis Cup matches have to submit to an examination on rules, etc. What would happen to the players if they, too, were com- pelled to stand an examination? ---------------- critics pronounced Chick Galloway of the Athletics the best shortstop, the most improved player in the league. Recently Connie Mack re- TUESDAY, JULY 15, 1086 J 3 TIMELY Still The Most For The Money BY JOE WILLIAMS. Heft never has meant a whole lot in golf. This year it appears to mean less than ever. Cyril Walker won the open championship of America. Cyril is hardly bigger than a quick breath. At the start of the championship he weighed 120 pounds. A few mo- ments after he finished the second day's play the winner, he stepped on the scales in the bath room and re- gistered 116 pounds. A bantam- weight triumphant among a field of Goliaths! Walker won because he had mas- tered the two essentials in golf, ramely, perfect timing and a smooth tody rhythm. Whether it is easier for a midget to master these details than a man of extraordinary size is hard to say. Bob MacDonald, of Chicago, is probably the tallest professional in the game, and is big proportionately. It was MacDonald who set the craze for long distance hitting. Even now he is one of the longest hitters in the game. And in every other respect he is a capable golfer, For two straight years he has been the Metropolitan open champion. The first year he won it he led Jim Barnes, runner up, by 10 strokes. Ted Ray, the Briton, is even big- ger than MacDonald, and Ray was good enough to win the American open in 1920. But size has had noth- ing to do with the success of Mac- Donald or Ray or any of the other big uns." It has not in any way been an asset. . The diminutive Walker drove right along with the siege gunners at De- troit. Even the fierce gales that blew down on him did not take the pep out of 'his swats. Walker was 'hitting the ball correctly and timing his shots perfectly--and that's all the golf masters ask of you. Another golfer, no bigger than Walker, has just won an important championship. Jimmy Manion, St. Louis amateur, who fnished first in the Trans-Mississippi, is smaller than a hang nail, and twice as trouble- some to opposing golfers. And Jack Wenzler, new southern champion, can probably make the featherweight limit without doing more than five or ten minutes' road work. MOORE STICKS TO HUSSARS FOR REMAINDER OF SEASON. It developed last night that Clar- ence Moore, 4th Hussars leading pitcher,. would remain with the city league club for the rest of the sea- son. Moore was asked to join the senior team and considered it only on the condition that his present club vapbroved. To-day is 'the last day for signing players and the Hus- sars could never fill his place and re- fused to sanction the transfer with the result - that Moore will still be with the Purple and Gold. He is a great asset to the team and the Hus- sars will be glad to hear that he is sticking. ; Star Relief Pitchers.
