Before one of the largest week-
day crowds of the season, Callahan' j
Athletes put the calcimine to Pen-
dlotor'i thorites at League part last
afternoon. The score was 3 to' 0.
Had It not been for error* and
mu> free ticket, Walter Johnson
Schmid and one Mr. Andrews, elon-
gated and iaboriona twirler for the
Tutors, might yet be doing duty
with the score board showing noth-
ing hot goose eggs. There were er-
rors, however, and there was one
J«M* of free tranaportation and in
eoeeeQuence, Belton moves np on the
lupe standing, while the Patriots
«top backward a few notches.
The number of hits Andrews al-
Jtwod total three. That count is
correct—he is disastrously chlnchey
with his bingles. Walker, Pendle-
ton and Slaughter were the only
home swatters who could find his
problems and they found him but
once each. He allowed two bases on
Mia and struck out seven men. His
poorest showing was made by his
aMlity to hit the batters, having
three demerit marks against him in
that department. Perhaps Andrews
|« a farmer, bat it must be admitted
that the soU from whence he comes
i» rather fertile.
Schmid, although twirling swift
haila and having all sorts of kinks
in his curves, lacked control at prop-
er times. He gave three bases on
halls, permitted six bingles and whif-
fH but two. There were five er-
rors behind him, but no lack of
ginger. The Patriots played hard.
Walker and Pendlton, particularly,
exhibited classy baseball. Pendleton
grabbed files in fair and font lines
in a most spectacular and pleasing
manner; Walked staged exhibitions
of rapid baseball, quick thinking and
aoenrate pegging that cinches the
igct that he is the niftiest first sack-
or and all around ball player in this
circuit-
BUton gathered Its runs in the
ftrrt and iiecond innings, just at the
periods when fields should be on
their toes In an effort to let the
piteber get into proper form. Hovel
started the run-getting by a hit into
right field and was sacrifled by Ne-
rott to second. Green hit through
tfcn lines Into left, scoring Hovel and
third In a series of disap-
pointments. Kazzir hit swiftly! to
short and a boot let Green score.
MaHins filed out to Pendleton and
Watson made the third death, Rus-
ebo to Walker.
In the period No. 2, with one out,
Boarland was given fonr wide ones
antf promptly pilfered second. He
took third when 8chmid had a wild
pitch or Slaughter a passed ball, it
i§ debatable whether Slaughter or
gduald was respooabile: Andrews
ap, got a ticket to the Walker
and Hovel following hit to left
scoring Bourland. Nevett got on
first by an error at second; Green
whiffed and Kazzir died, Rusche to
Walker.
Pendleton's clan did nothing un-
nsaal on the bases. They had too
lew opportunities.
Mnllins was injured in the fifth
by a slide into first base after hit-
ting to Walker and seeking to beat
that custodian to first. Besides los-
ing, he got hurt. He displayed
splendid nerve, however, by contin-
uing in the game. Walker starred
la two other situations preventing
runs. In the ninth, with Castings
on third and Andrews on 1st. a dou-
ble squeeze was attempted; Walker
engineering the bfttUMW
tings to look like a small baby boy.
By steady behavior and pegging like
a bullet, ho caught the runner ai
home by full ten feet. In the same
Inning, Slaughter, throwing to oatch
Andrews' lead-off, hit the runner;
Walker secured the bounce and plac-
edthe ball precisely right for Roach
to tag the runner by an inch.

It's not definite that the league
chieftain baa returned to earth from
his flight of Monday, but the fact
that he telephoned and asked for af-
fidavits In the controversy between
Lampasas and Brenham over Utz-
mann, indicates that he is moving
slowly through a process of reason-
ing and may eventually arrive.
Whether he does makes no particu-
lar difference, for Utzmann, regard-
less of President Blum's telegram of
suspension will pitch against Bartlett

is forfeited by the umpire—but sure
ly the umpire knows better.

BARTLETT TRIMS RAILROADERS
Temple, Tezaa, July 14.—With
three men on/bases in the ninth In-
ning and only one man down ,Penn,
Instead of playing baseball took three
heavy swings at the sphere and miss-
ed. Roberts followed with a drive
to center which was stopped by
Thomas and the game was over,
Bartlett winnjng by a score of 5 to 4.
It would have been a shout out If
Fuller had not messed up Hopkin's
grounder In ths sixth Inning, giving
that runnsr a life for the visitors,
then let in and scored three runs be-
fore Fagan was derlcked.
Hopkins was clearly In form and
against a weaker team would have
performed with more credit. Fagan
was going fine and should have had
a shut-out game to his credit. Ro-
berts exhibited well and without
question will be the leading pitcher
of the circuit before many days.
Vance just arrived in Temple yester-
day and made his debut conspicuous-
ly, polling out two hits and not hav-
ing a base pilfered off him during
the game. *

Lampasas, July 14.—Lampasas
fell on Georgetown savagely yester-
day In the last four innings of what
was a pretty struggle up to that
time and turned a seeming defeat ty-
to an overwhelming victory. Wal-
ton had been going good up to the
fatal sixth and Georgetown held the
lead by one slender run when the-
Sheep Herders got next to Walton's:
delivery in that session and knocked
him out of the box, chalking five
runs to its. credit for the last hair
of that session. Walton started in'
on the seventh but fared no better
and after one man was down E. Go-
ber was sent in to relieve him, Which
caused a wholesale change in the vis-
itors line-up. The horn-? team con-
tinued its batting streak and Gober
was an easy victim for the hard hit-
ters of the team. Pendarvis secur-
ed a two-base drive that cleared th:
bases in the sixth and started the
fireworks. Nichols for the b<Vne
team had a busy day In the center
zone, accepting eight chances with-
out a bobble. Stovall starred at the
bat for Lampasas, securing two sin-;
i gles and two two-baggers, also steal-
ing two bases. Wende played a con-
sistent game for the visitors both at
the bat. and behind ths rubber.

Why She Was Crying^
Washington Star.
J. Pierpont Morgan left a good
many legacies to young women of
talent, Whom he had befriended in
their weary upward climb.
Weil, they say that a manager
found one of his most talented and
beautiful actresses wiping her eyes
in her dressing room just after the
reading of the Morgan will.
"What are you crying about?"
the manager said.
"I'm crying," the girl answered,
because Mr. Morgan is dead."
"uBt you didn't know Mr. Mor-
gan." said the manager.
• "That is why Fs crying," said the
girl.

Mr. Bailey this
President John M.
is. "1 have not heard from
him. The affidavits are Jbeing pre-
pared as he directed and which would
have been done in the first place and
will be forwarded. Brenham has
no doubts as to the ultimate decision
Our only controversy in connection
with the matter Is the over-readiness
with which President Blum arrives
at conclusions In regard to Brenham.
I do not know what he does with
other clubs—I do not care. This
much, thought is certain, we are as
familiar with the rights of a base-
ball team as is he and will tolerate
the exercise of no authority except
as is properly due him. We feel
amply qualified to attend to our own
affairs in this city and will do so-
absolute fairness will be /fciven and
absolute fairness will be demanded.
Pitcher Utzmann is preparing a
formal statement as to his part in
the controversy. That statement
contains every phase of the negotia-
tions which lead him to sign a Bren-
ham contract and which causes him
now to wear a Brenham uniform.
At no time did he sign a Lampasas
contract, permit the Lampasas club
to pay any advance salary for trans-
portation or hotel expenses nor oth-
erwise give Lampasas reason to be-
lieve that he waB preparing to join
the club.
Seemingly, Lampasas' only claim
on Utzmann is the fact that.lie join-
ed the Brenham team at Lampasas.
That will be a profound question for
the national commission to pass upon
and will cause that body to feel gen-
uine astonishment at the baseball
wisdom ~af the Middle Texas league.
If President Blum stagesmany more
of that kind, it will bo impossible for
this circuit to keep—both the majors
will draft him to succeed Governor
Tener and Ban Johnson.
