Our old friend. John "hiuggsy"
Hearsay has been staying in the
background with his famous New
York Giants virtually since the
start of the season. Doped by the
spring experts to tight it. out with
the Pirates for the National gon-
faloh. the Gotham gang had been
roposing in the second sector most
of the time. Their low position in
the race has been one ‘of the big-
gest surprises of the campaign.

But now—with less than two
months remaining—the wily "lawn"
McGraw and his band must again
be figured in the pennant reckon»
ing. McGraw seems to have the

boys‘started on the victory trail at .

last.

At the present time the Gi
are playing just about the best ball
in the circuit. Within the past few
days they've crept up from sixth
place to within striking distance of
the leaders. The old McGraw threat
looms once again. ‘

McGrmv. baseball‘s “master
mimi.’ strategist. stern commander
and what-not, has had his Giants
finish out of the tlrstdivision but
once since taking up,» is present
duiics>ln 1902. That In 1915
when the team came in eighth (the
191i: ensemble also landed in the
collar. but rrIiIcGl'aw didn't assume
charge until mid-season.

The Giants. ,under the' crafty
“Muggsy,” have won 10 pennants.
four in a row, which. by the way.
is a mm major league record.
His ' finished second nine
times. third once. and fourth twice.
He has three world titles to his
credit. .

Anything is apt to happen in
baseball. And it wouldn't be at all
surprising were McGraw's Giants
the team to give the pace-setting
Pirates the toughest battle as the
clubs swing into the home stretch.
The two old rivals are due to hook
up in a five-lame series shortly and
should the New Yorkers cling to the
pace they have set of late that Na-
tional League flag may yet come
McGraw's way. just as ma critics
opined last spring. ’

A good slogan at this time might
be: "Look out. the Giants are
coming!"

It is an odds on bet that the l.:ttcrs

Jack Dempsey. bringing to a close
his last day in his New York State
training camp. in Saratoga Springs,
left last night for the new quarters
at Atlantic City. stopping for the
night in New York. Accompanying
the champion was his wife. Estelle
Taylor Dempsey. He planned to meet
Gone Normlle. his business manag-
er for a conference. then go to
Philadelphia for luncheon with
Mayor Kendrick. Tuesday or Wed—
nesday-he will open the new camp.

A crowd of about 1.500 watched

the champion go through his last
training stunts at Luther's Hotel at
Ssratoga Lake yesterday afternoon.
Work with the pulleys. the light and
heavy bags. phadow boxing and calls-
thenlcs served for the preliminary
warming up and then Dempsey took
on fivo‘of his sparring partners for
a round apiece. They were Frank
Garcia. Johnny Saxon, Jimmy
Brown. Joe Kurp and Big Bill Tate.
The feature of the sparring. one
that gave the onlookers a real thrill.
was the Champion's handling of Big
Bill T's-to. Jack sent Big Bill sprawl-
ing flat on the canvas and when
Tate jumped up he caught three
more terrific hooks on the chin. Tate
has the reputation of being a re-
markably hard man to floor. even
for Dempsey. and the knockdown
was greeted with delight by all save
possibly Big Bill;
When Tate came out of the ring.
he said Dempsey is getting into
great form and is as hard as nails
now. The whole camp declared the
champion worked better than ever
before.

Yesterday's game was an ouhzi-ou m :
of the action of the board or time. 1
tors of the Sesquicentcnniul I‘IXlH‘lSlr
tion Ill ordering the exposition m»- n.
on Sunday and charging an trims-
slon fee. The Athletics muuugmu: '..L
then announced it would play at Mt
game on Sunday. to which Mayor
Kendrick replied that he would use
the police to prevent the playing of
the game. claiming that the CASS ‘
differed from the exposition and
that a ball game on Sunday would be
a violation of the blue laws of 1794.

Last week the Athletics appllt‘d
for an injunction to restrain the.
mayor and the police from interfer- '
ing. The injunction was granted
Saturday by Judge Frank Smith, who
said that “baseball does not tend to
immorality or the corruption of
youth." and that it takes a person
“out into the open who might other.
wise spend his time to his own d15-
advantage."

Mayor Kendrick announced Satur-
day that he would confer with Cll)‘
Solicitor Joseph P. Gaffney today to
determine whether any action would
be taken by the city.

The Rev. William B. Forney. sce-
retary of the Philadelphia Sabbath
Association. said that his organizn-‘ "
tion was prepared to take immed-
iate action to prevent further Sun-
day games on the grounds that such V’
games "constitute a public nui-
sance."
