fielding by Doctor Wyatt, YanceyAyera, the Nationals were forced tocome from behind to grab off thisedge over Mack's "Coolies," but theyresponded gamely through brilliantstick work and sensational pitchingby Jimmy Shaw. Ayters got away toa great start, but he faltered In thesecond and third Innings when theSturaberland tribe crashed across atrio of counters. .
Opposed to the HillsviNe mounds-men was Scott Perry, the hurler whomay disrupt organised baseball lrConnie Mack and" the Americanleague force the Issu* with the Na«itonal Commission on the claim oftha Boston Braves. Setting a trimming nowadays is nothing new toMr. Perry, as his defeat yesterdavwas his eighth straight AlthoughPerry was touched up for eleven safeblows, two bad Innings in whlcadrift's clan bunched these safewhacks, spoiled the afternoon, froma Philadelphia standpointParry went along until the fourth
when the first bombardment was
opened on his offerings. Two hitswith two men down were obtainedoff him in the opening inning whileAyres was belnr treated In an un-lady like manner by the Mackmenin the second and third when threeruna were recorded against the Na¬tionals. At this point the Old Foxhad witnessed enough of Ayer'swork and handed him the ahowercall. Jimmy Shaw facing the visi¬tors in the fourth. Shaw's wlldnessin this chapter gave the Athleticsthe lead way to their final tallJeand from the form that Perry wasallowing it appeared that the af¬ternoon s entertainment was allsettled.But there was no settlement at
this stage of the battle as OrifTswarriors went into* their half of the,fourth session and jammed throughtnree of the needed runa while Jim¬my Shaw improved as ha wentalong and was practically Invin¬cible In the final three frames.

Notes of Game.Sammy Rica will play his last same

at 4:00 p. m. with Harper working for jthe locals and Myer for the Mackmen.Bobby Herman the little catcher who
Griff took South for spring trainingdid not return to this city with theGrlffmen yesterday.

yesterday from Atlanta. The South¬ern League club has disbanded givingOiiff a chance to recall Casey earlierthan his agreement.Uncle Nick A It rock and Sammy Rice

Boys] Here's a RivalFor DicktMerriwelT
There was a time when a good manylioys thought Dick Merrlwell waawhat might be called the real goodsIn baseball. Of course. Dick waa acollege player, but he was concededby his author-creator to be better thanany of the big league boys. He couldpitch left and right handed, and Itkwaa a common occurrence for him tocome to the bat In the ninth, withthree men on, two down, and thescore 3 to 0 In favor of the opposition,and knock a home run. That waaDick's everyday work.But now Dick has a rival In real
life, writes Harvey J. Boyle in "ThePittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph." Hisrival Is Babe Ruth. The Red Soxstar la not ambidextrous, aa waa themythical Merrlwell. but he can playfirst, the outfield and pitch, aside fromleading the American league batterswith a percentage of over .?*>. BabeRuth should have the honor of beingcalled a Dick Merrfwell.

BIG BATTLE ISLISTEDTUESDAYBenny Leonard, the Light¬
weight Champ, MeetsJack Britton.
"Philadelphia, June It..Billy Olb-son, manager for Benny Leonard,insists that the clever little NewYorker is still & light-weight andcan make the limit for that classwithout any trouble. Whether hecan or not will have no bearing on
the outcome of Tuesday night'sbout here with Jack Britton, sched¬uled to take place at Shibe Park,the scene of the elimination ofJohnny Kilbane by the same BennyLeonard last summer.In this encounter Leonard will
not be risking his title and will notforfeit the light-weight champion¬ship should he lose or should he beknocked out. The coming bout is tobe a welter-weight contest, as it willbe fought at 141 pounda ringside.Therefore all consideration of thematch must be on the basis of thatweight and what bearing it willhave on the result.Leonard and Britton are admit¬
tedly the two beat boxers of theirweight now in the ring in thiscountry. They resemble the oldschool of fighters, and remind stu¬dents of boxing of the day of Griffo,Gans and McAuliflfe. when the fol¬lowers of the sport demanded clev¬erness. aggressiveness and game-ness from their pugilistic heroes.Leonard is the harder hitter of
the two. and his blows hurt mor«when they land, but Brittbn is amaster of the defensive side of box¬ing and he never lets an opponentland a blow on any part of his an¬atomy if he can avoid it.Therefore many of Benny's blows,
which if landed on a less experienc¬ed boxer would be damaging, willnot be as effective when aimed atBritton. and In that respect Leon¬ard's strength will be offset by Brit-ton's superior defense.
DEMPSEY-FULTON BATTLEBOOKED FOR ORIOLE PARK
LONG AWAITEDRING CONTEST
Oriolfe Boxing Fans Anxiousto Witness Chaney-Dun-
dee Battle.Baltimore, lid., June B -Whrn tb«
AmerietB Athletic Association match¬ed George Chsney, the Knockout Kingof this city, and Johnny Dundee, theScotch Wop of New York, for a 12-round decision bout next Saturdayafternoon at Oriole Park, it succeed¬ed In closing a bout for which localfollowers of the ring gams have beenhoping several year® Desirs to seethese boys over a distance route hasbeen Increased several times by thefact that just when It looked as if theset-to might be arranged somethingbobbed up that resulted in he affairgoing by the board.No match staged here within the
last half dozen years has attractedas much attention from the jump asthis one. This is not only the casehere, but out or town as well. Allhands realise that these great bat¬tlers will put up a fight worth goingfar to see, snd that a decisive win¬ner between the two will mean greatadditional fame for the victor.For a number of years now Chaney
has shown himself to be the hardestpuncher in his class, and he has won50 per cent of his bouts by knockouts.As a matter of fact. George has lostonly four matches In his entire career,and they were all by knockouts. Thefact that any boy who went the limitwas unable to get a decision over himattests to the fact that the KayoBoss has considerably more sciencethan he is .credited with in manyplaces. Chaney's four defeats are allwell remembered here. Young Brlttstopped George when he was a mewyoungster, and George came rightback and sent Britt to dreamland ontwo occasions, putting an end toBritt's ring career. Tommy Houckstopped George after the Baltimoreboy had won all the way in 10 rounds,a chance blow turning tho trick.Chaney got revenge a short whileafter and put Houck out In less thanfive rounds. Mike Clancy stoppedGeorge with a fluke punch and noamount of effort was large enough toever induce Clancy to again get intothe ring with Chaney. Kllbane scoredthe other victory over the Baltimoret>oy.

that the American Athletic I.Hidetlop managers believed that the stat¬ing of the Dempsey-Futton lightwould cripple the fight which expeotsto stage here oa July C betweenGeorge Chaney and Johnny Duniti 1After much discussion theae manager*were made to see that Mg fight sched¬uled for Baltimore was somethingthat would probably never again haseen here, and that the psngii of thlecity would want to see It above anether fights.The American Association manager*
then practically screed that if Jungwould coneent to make np to themwhat they would likely loee In sUf-ln« their fight ee soon after theDempeey-Fulton match, tlte park wastheir* for the go.This wss agreed to aad tomorrow
the managers of both matches win¦meet again to try and reach sonsagreement as to the sum to be paMSo now It looks ss if Oriole Park willbe cinched for the big fight.Messrs. Jung and Schoenlein realise
the importance of the contest andrightfully believe Baltimoreans areready to witness this fancy pugilisticdish. Likewise, they are of the opinionthat the Monumental Sporting Club, owhich they are tbe promoters, mightbe able to realise a nifty sum fromthe staging of the encounter. Theyhave gone about arranging the mill ina square end above-board manner, infact, they have shown s frankness, anintelligence and a sincerity uncommonwith those who have taken It untotbcmwelvee to monopolise boxing inthis city.In speaking of the affair tonight
Jung said: "We have done everythingreasonable in an effort to secureOriole Park. We have tbe oontractafor the fighters, which call #or apurse of S25.0W. ft has been said thatwe should make them work on a per¬centage basis. To do this I might aaythat we offered them as high as eev-enty per cent, and they refused.'We even demanded that $5,000 be cut
from the original puree of SS.000 In¬asmuch as the mill was tote cut fromtwenty rounds (the distanoe set whenit was thought the affair would takeplace in Danbury. Conn.) to fifteen. Tothia a deaf ear was also turned. Thenegotiations were conducted ss busi-ness-liks aa posible."
