Ward BOSTON, May Today was no holiday or anything like and there didn't seem to be any sound reason for the act, but the Tigers departed from Boston tonight after presenting Bucky Harris and his plutocratic Red Sox with a ball game.

The presentation was made this afternoon and the score was 3 to 4. To the veteran Goose Goal in must go the odium for the Tigers' singular conduct. He oecame the greatest gift bearer of the afternoon when he committed two glaring errors in the second inning that helped the Red Sox to four runs and nearly broke the stout Irish heart of Young Stephen Patrick Larkin. The game was to be a sort of (est for Larkin. Mickey Cochrane has had difficulty in making up his Walker It Benched BOSTON, May 9 Manager Cochrane, of the Tigers, tonight decided to bench Gerald Walker and assign Jo-Jo White to center field.

Pete Fox will go to right and Goose Goslin to left Mickey told White that the center field Job is his, that he will be given every chancs to make good and that he won't be taken out even it he doesn't hit for a couple days. Mickey has soured on Walker's chances to make good. He doubts whether Gerald will hit enough to make up for his fielding lapses and is skeptical about him as a team player. mind regarding the ability of his various hurlers. He sent Stephen Patrick to the hill In order to look him over more thoroughly.

But all he found out was that Goslin was having a bad day. And Two Were Out The Goose went haywire after Moose Solters and Eddie Morgan, the first two men to face Larkin in the second, had been retired on easy pop flies. He literally kicked Stephen PatricK out of the box. The first bit of trouble came when Bill Cissell singled to right. Tho Goose let the ball get away and Cissell moved to second base.

Then Gordon Hlnkle dropped a fly to right that a faster fielder than Goslin might have caught The Gooss could get only one nd it, however, and the catcher was credited with a double that scored Cissell. Larkin's Irish blood began to simmer at this point and became wild. He walked Gordon Rhodes. the Boston pitcher, after which Bishop lifted a fly to short right Goslin caught ths ball after a hard but let It droit and was charged with an error on which Hlnkle scored. Bill Werber doubled to scoring Rhodes and Bishop after that and Victor Sorrell was sent in to get the side ou This he did by Inducing Cooke to ground to Rogell.

Although he was chased from the premises because of the misdeeds of Goslin, Larkin was not charged with today'- defeat. T. Is was placed at th' door of Sorrell, because the Tigers tied the score after Larkin left the scene and Sorrell was on the peak when ihe Sox scored the deciding run. That occurred in the fifth inning whenk Morgan drew a oass after two were out and scored on Cissell's. trtpla to center.

Even Getirlnger Fails OstermuHer. ae lefthander from Rochester, came on the scene tn the seventh Inning and prevented the Tigers from pulling the gams from the fire. In that frame the Bengals loaded the sacks before anybody was out and caused Bucky -Harris to send a hurry call for a relief hurler. Charley Gehringer, a very dangerous person, was the first man to face the youngster, but that did not daunt OstermuHer. He fanned Geh- -ringer, threw out Jo Jo White at the plate when Hank Greenber? bounced to the box and caused Gerald Walker to force Greenberg at second base.

The Tigers mads another strong bid for victory in the eighth, but again the youngster slammed tho door in their faces with ths assistance of a good stop by Cissell and Please Turn to Pige 21 Column 3 Too Many Muffs (IKTROIT AB PI TB PO a Willie, at (io.lln. rf oehrane. liehrinier. l.f eenberr, Walker.

Trouble Sighted for Yanks as They Await Golf Clash Down Twice but Believed Strengthened by form in the first race when she won at odds of near 24 to 1. Young Kitty, ridden by N. Wall, beat a big field of Canadian breds over the five-furlongs route. Second money went to the veteran Ay-mond, which closed the heavily played favorite, while Rock Crest earned the third money. Young Kitty was away to a flying start and had something to spare at the finish.

Jockey Remlllard got a lot out of Aymond in the late, stages of the race, but never was able to threaten Young Kitty. Second to Baxter Those that play the horses according to the book took another beating in the second race. This one was won by Barter, at more than 10 to 1, Joe Macaw taking the place and Donny Johnny third money. It was at six furlongs for the older division, and Barter had three parts of a length to spare at RESULTS AND ENTRIES ON PAGE 20 ARE the finish, although hard driven in the stretch. Stephanus had a lot of early speed but folded up badly.

They ran fairly well to form in the third race, with Tlmon, the second choice, beating Craigco, the favorite, by three lengths. Third place went to the third choice, Don Tasker. Craigco cut out the early pace with Jockey Fruchnicki getting a lot of speed out of his mount. However. Wall had Timon right up, chasing the leader to the stretch, where he came on with a burst of speed and, was going away at the wire.

Stepoff scored one for the favorite players In the fourth race when he beat a short field of Canadian breds at seven furlongs. Clarry, winner of his first start Saturday, was second and Sea Kale third in a field of aeven. Stepoff's time for the seven-eighths was 1:27 3-5. Then Their Fun Ends Herowln's victory in the fifth race ended the fun for the form players. Siss, with Young up, took down the big end of the purse in the sixth race at better than 6-1.

Fred Almy was second while the favorite, Style Corner, took third money in a field of nine. Siss, which ran a dull race Saturday, showed a form reversal and stepped the three quarters In 1:12 4-5. Whitey Abel's Black Target, de spite Its decisive victory Saturday, was permitted to go to the post at better than 4 to 1 in the last race and Whitey came right back with another victory. Black Target got down in front of the favorite, Fall Apple, with War Plane, also well played, getting the show. Only six faced the barrier in the mile and 70 yards jaunt.

The British have been very Informal In their practice, today being the first time they have played in foursomes. Capt Scott has given no Indication, beyond the pairings of their foursome match, as to how his team will line up. The substitution- of Crawley for Munn, a surprise selection last week, unanimously was agreed to have greatly strengthened the English team. Crawley's friends said the only reason he wasnt selected in the first place was because of an indiscreet remark he made that "St. Andrews is one of the poorest courses in all England." To the Royal and Ancient that Is treason.

Scotland, May 9 (A. The United States Walker Cup forces today fired one last volley at St. Andrews and settled bac'k to rest for the start Friday of what looks to be one of their toughest golfing engagements with, the British. The British team was strengthened today by the substitution of Leonard Crawley, the only Briton to win a singles engagement in the last cup matches, for the forty-seven-year-old Lionell Munn, who reported ill. The Britons practtce rounds have indicated all of them are very much "on" their games.

Enthusiasm over the 72 shot by Johnny Goodman and Lawson Little while defeating Chandler Egan and Max Marston, 6 and 4, in a Scotch foursome, was abated somewhat when Cyril Tolley and Roger Weth-ered did the same thing in winning from their British teammates, Sam McKinlay and Capt. Michael Scot, 3 and 2. The American youngsters, by their victory, completed a clean sweep of trial matches in foursomes play against the other" members of the team and stamped themselves the leading American combination. They had a medal of 70 yesterday. There even was some discussion as to whether it would be better to split them and strengthen weaker pairs.

Capt. Francis Ouimet has paired himself with George T. Dun-lap, and assigned Gus Moreland to plev with Jack Westland. Johnny Fischer Is reserved for the singles engagements where Marston will be the spare. Ouimet and Dunlap also played well in the final practice to post a medal score of 74 and a 3 and 2 Nusslein to NEW YORK, May 9 (A.

Tho United States Davis Cup selection committee, taking a leaf from the tennis book of England and France, today announced the engagement of Hans Nusslein, German professional, to play against the American team candidates during their training period at the Merlon Cricket Club. Nusslein will report to Capt. R. Norris (Dick) Williams next Monday with the players. John Van Ryn, still sticking to his decision not to be a candidate for the team, also will practice with them in view of the injury to Wii-mer Allison.

Barron won this time on a decision. Barron, whose philoonhy can be summed aptly if tritely, "If at first you don't succeed, came back, as he had insisted he. would. That, however, could be put down as pugilistic braggadocio beforehand.

But after last night's victory It could not. He wasn't bragging. Whether they liked the decision or not, the 2,000 persons who saw Scotty Monteith's card were ready to concede it was one of the hard, hard enough to win Referee Elmer (Slim) McClelland's nod. McClel land gave seven rounds to Barron and three to Drouillard. He fought one of the best fights that has ever been promoted with in Arena Gardens walls and a lot of other walls in Detroit Barron stood up and traded smashing punches toe to toe with Drouillard, who until his foe came back had not lost a decision in 14 contests.
