A baseball fan. who has gone in to the subject very thoroughly, puts Marquard in the record class with a big "R." along with Timothy Keefe, a former pitcher for the New York Nationals while he rele gates Luby, of the Chicago Nation als. to the smond seat in the tally ho He contends that since 1 89<i it has been presumed that Luby held the pitching record, in that year Luby was a member of the Chica go Cubs then known as the Colts Anson was captain of the team and the fight was on between the Brotherhood league and the Na tional league.

Rube Marquard's Record. Marquard's record differs from that of any other pitcher in the major leagues in that it began with the first game of the year, and un jil he pitched against Lavender on July 8 In Chicago he had not been beaten Therefore, he won 19 straight games from the beginning of the season His record Is as follows: R MARQUARD, NEW YORK.

Brooklyn 1 In the above games Marquard pitched nine full innings, except that on April 11. the first day of the season, darkness set in and the game was called at the end of the sixth inning On May 1 the (Hants were so far in the lead that Mar quard was taken out at the end of the seventh Inning to give him a rest. Rube Goes 11 Innings. <>n June 17. against Pittsbuig, he was compelled to go 11 innings. In the game in which he was taken out of the box to permit another player to bat for him some small minded and pusillanimous Individ uals undertook to belittle his rec ord on the ground that he was not entitled to the game because he had been sent to the bench. He was entitled to the game, and all the rulings which have been made in baseball for the last five years hate been made on exactly the same groqnd. The only trouble with the other fellows was that they’ were not up to date and did not realize that there is no fixed set of rules by which pitchers are rated. The question has been argued often enough by this time for ev erybody to be familial- with it. No exception was made In Marquard's case, for every pitcher has been rated on the same method. Once he relieved Ames with the score tied. The Giants won and Mar quard got the game McGOORTY AND BROWN MAY MIX IN WINNIPEG < HICAGO.

' The Last of the Barons," will be enacted for the benefit of a thrilled anti somewhat awed pub lic this afternoon. And, bless goodness, it Is the last of them in Atlanta for this wesson — not that we don't, like to see them play, but because the result is gen erally well nigh fatal to our be loved and belabored Crackers. Incidentally, the Crackers tossed off all that was movable of an other doubleheader yesterday aft ernoon, making four games out of four for the hated opposition. • ♦ * rj Y the way , the Barons are going to win the Southern league pen nant this yea.. We said it before the first game was played—but It was only a rank gue?s then. We say it again now—and It's a deadly certainty. Bar miracles and there's nothing to It but the Barons. They're out in front a mile. Just cantering and yet pulling away from the regt of the field as though it was anchored. Even now, before the Barons have won their fifth straight game from the Crackers (see our extra for the morbid details) they are a good 75 points ahead of Mobile, their near est rival. This means a matter of seven and one-half full games. Os course, beginning Monday, the league has six full weeks to run, and the Birmingham team has ex actly 32 scheduled games. But w hat makes ft particularly nice for tne Barons is that 20 out of the 32—a miserable five-eighths—are to be played at the Birmingham park. The Batons could be beaten. And so could the Giants. But we don't look for it. Anybody with capital would gladly insure them against it at a very low rate. The Mobile team Is making a grand fight.

Smith may have been able to peddle pop steadily through a doubleheader. But when it comes to pitching—nine innings is his natural distance. Smith certainly went eight spasms at high speed against the Crackers. They couldn’t find him at all. In the first game the only hit made was an infield scratch that was beaten out by’ determined running* Otherwise there was no hitting done. In the second game the Crackers got to Smith pretty- hard, and it is suspected that Smith saw what was coming, and rather than admit de feat. he hooked up in an argument with L'mpire Breitenstein that got him put out of the grounds, and finally out of the park. Two police men were used, and it was thor oughly dramatic. But nobody sus pects that Smith was loth to go. At that. Smith is a grand young pitcher. His pitching form is awk ward and uncouth. But he has tre mendous speed, some curves that break rather sharply , and a neat change of pace. He should surely have a big league trial in the spring and he will make somebody an aw fully good pitcher before many years. ♦ ♦ ♦ '-pHE Visit here of Rafael Almeida * has aroused qpite a bit of in terest in Cuban baseball..

McDermott, professional of the Coun try club of Atlantic City, for the sec ond consecutive time won the tourna ment for the open golf championship of the United States. Triple tied last year for the championship at Chica go; McDermott won the title on the playoff, and the year previous he was a runner-up for the open title. McDermott was two strokes beyond low at the completion of the second round of medal play Thursday, ami after tlie third round yesterday was three strokes behind T. H. Brady, of Boston. During the afternoon he went to first place and won the title by a score of 71, Brady turning in a card of 79, which dropped him into fourth place, Tom McNamara, of Boston, metro politan champion, made a new record for the course with a 69 yesterday aft ernoon. which brought him into second place in the finals Alex Smith, of Wykagyl. was placed third. Walter J Travis. of the Garden City, was low amateur. He turned in a eai i of 307 for the 72 holes, tied with two professionals for tenth position. sans. They' are as proud as Luci fer. and justly so. But most of the Cuban players are as black as men are made. Os the blacks-—in fact, of all the islanders the greatest is Jose Mendez. He is a pitcher— small, light in weight and very, very black. The big leaguers whe have visited the island all say the same thing—thht Mendez lacks only the complexion of a big leaguer. They call him the "Black Mathew son," and while he hasn't the size nor the brains of his Caucasian namesake, he is said to have fully as much ability- in Cuba the baseball fans are a shade wilder over the game than they are in the United States. They are all great believers m their teams, and have a notion that noth ing in the world can stop them. And, as far as that goes, they have usually been able to prove it against any teams sent dowm from the United States. Another queei thing about base ball in Cuba is that the Ameri can terms are used by a Spanish speaking people. All the terms— "single,” "base hit," "error" and even the language of vituperation, "bonehead” and the like—are used just as they are here. But they are connected up in the language of the fans and of tlie players by assorted varieties of Cuban Span ish. The Cubans are great spenders, and the price of tickets ranges from 65 cents to 32. At Havana tlie crowds range from a couple of thousand on an average week day to ten or twelve thousand on Sun day. The stands there are first class, the playing fields large and often rough. The players of Cuba, on the whole, are reputed to rank in the mechanical performance of the plays right close around those of this country. Os course, in team play and in the deeper knowledge of the game they are lacking, but they are coming to it fast.

Atteil 1 wired his acceptance. Red Sox or Senators—Which Is To Meet Giants for Big Title? By Monty. rryHE Athletics will not win the American league pennant. The Giants will win the National league pennant. It is about time for a fellow to come out with some bold prophecy anent the league races on which he is w illing to stake his reputation. We stake all that we have on the first paragraph of this whopping wheeze. In other words, we pro claim that the 1911 condition of af fairs in the majors will be upset in just the reverse order of what everybody expected. At the start-off, many could not see the Giants comparing with Chi cago. Philadelphia, and Pittsburg in general efficiency. Others expect ed a close battle, betting even, some looked for the Giants to win by a small margin, but few—practically none—had any idea that they would be miles in the lead as they are now. with the rest of the field so far in the rear as to be hopelessly out of it. The grandstand finish of the Giants' recent Western trip, in which they more than broke even after losing seven out of the first nine games, puts them as distant from the opposition as ever, and their present home stand with the West as invaders should fatten their percentage even more. Athletics Seem Out of It. As to the Athletics—they orig inally were figured the cipch of a century. Every one expected them to spreadeagle the entire array by this time, just as the Giants have done. Instead they are loping along behind both Red Sox and Senators. We, for one, would not be sur prised if both these teams should stay ahead of the Mack crew to the end. Between the two of them, we can discern at least one above the Quakers when it is all over. This sounds as though we are NEWS FROM RINGSIDE Jim Flynn has accepted an offer to box ■Dm Barry in Boston next Tuesday, ac cording to reports from Gotham. ♦ » ♦ Abe Atteil will try to come back today when he is scheduled to go twenty rounds with Tommy Murphy on the coast. ♦ ♦ * Mike Gibbons has accepted terms to box Jimmy < labby in New Orleans Septem ber 1 If staged, the bout will be a twenty-round contest. ♦ ♦ * Frank Fleming and Frank Callahan are the headliners at the Fairmont A C of New York, tonight. ♦ ♦ * The McMahon brothers. whV> have been holding boxing contests in the St Nich olas rink, in New York, will abandon the quarters for the Star Casino. * ♦ ♦ Benny Leonard is scheduled to box Dave Morrissey in New York tonight. ♦ • ♦ Although <>wen Moran, the English lightweight pug. was expected to sail for Europe shortly, reports say if he can se cure a match he will not leave these shores.

We are picking the brace —both clubs—and calculate that at least one of them will be able to main tain the pace all the remainder of the way. To be sure, we. like every body else, favor the Red Sox. They have the larger percentage of the two, and seem possibly a trifle stronger. But we do not see them a sure thing, which is exactly what we do see in the two coupled to gether. Our bet, if we were in clined to speculate financially, would be three to one against the Athletics. In this slating, we count the Senators as a strong factor. Don't you ever believe that the Senators are a joke team this year as in the past. Ever since Clark Griffith arrived in Washington they have been a real ball club. Walter Johnson at last is helped with the pitching burden by the rest of the staff, the youngsters in particular. Ainsmith has shown himself one of the best young catchers of sev eral years and Henry and Williams are no slouches either. Clyde Mi lan is proving a second Cobb in the outfield this season. Young Fisher is a scream at third base. George Mcßride is going great guns at short. Germany Schaefer is on his old game at second and the youth Chick Gandil is a gem of a first baseman and hitter. Moeller and Walker, who stand on either side of Milan in the garden, both show real ability. Senators Are Well Balanced. The Senators are a well balanced team. They have won a majority of their conflicts with the Red Sox and have walloped the unmerciful daylights out of all other clubs ex cept the Athletics, who alone have broken better than even with them. The National league race may now be chalked up as a Giant vic-' tory. but the American is still a battle—a fight between Senators and Red Sox. The Garden A.
