Begins at 6:30 The game, which will begin . promptly at 6:30 p. m. Wednesday, is just a part of the program for the evening. The big thing of the eve- ning is the dedication of the city ball park to the Bismarck park board. - The city service clubs have worked several months to gather up $4,000 with which to purchase the grounds. The third event on the program will be the giving away of a Chev- rolet sedan. Ticket sales for the ame have been going good the last fon days, according to Tobin, who is in charge of the campaign. Each ticket carries a chance on the free automobile. Three former University of North Dakota athletes will see action against Bismarck Wednesday. They 2 are “Mutt” Gronvold, catcher, Mike » Geston, shortstop, and Bob Renden, . third-sacker.

Sox are playing winning ball under | the managership of Lena Black- burne. Since Blackburne took over the reins on July 5, the day after Ray Schalk resigned as manager, the Sox have turned in nine victories in 12) staris. Bulking heavily in this re- versal of form has been the return | to effectiveness of the pitching staff, which on paper at least rates at or near a parity with any in the Amer- ican League, For the second time in two play- ing days, the pale hose took over both ends of a double header with the Boston Red Sox, yesterday, 4 to 0, and 9 to 1. While Red Faber and Ted Blankenship were holding the Hub team to 14 hits and a single run in the two battles, the White Sox were hammering out 29 hits off Ruffing, Harriss and Simmons. Johnny Mostil played sensational eight of them in the second game. Yanks Take Two The New York Yankees demon- strated conclusively that they’ve recovered from their recent slump by taking their second consecutive double-header from the Cleveland Indians, 7 to 3and 6 to 2. George Pipgras was hit often in the first struggle but tightened up in the pinches, Young Henry Johnson pitched the champions to an easy triumph in the nightcap. Babe Ruth hit his 35th homer of the year in the third inning of the opener and now stands 22 games, 20 days and five home runs ahead of his 1927 schedule, The Philadelphia Athletics dropped further back in the race when they ;ained no better than an even break in two games with the Detroit Tigers. Jack Quinn, veter- an of Connie Mack’s firing squad, registered his 12th victory of the season in the first struggle, 3 to 2. George Earnshaw had the second in his pocket until the eighth inning when the Tigers hammered him out of the box and slugged Rube Wal- berg and Joe Bush around until thirteen men had batted and nine of them had scored. Tavener’s hom- er with the bases loaded an:l Har- grave’s triple with the sacks in a similar condition accounted for sev- en of the nine runs. Alvin Crowder hung up his 11th win against a single defeat as the Browns romped off with a 4 to 2 decision over the Washington Sena- tors. Maaush’s fourth hit of the game, a double, Schulte’s single, an error and a sacrifice fly gave the Browns two runs and the game in the tenth inning. Winning and losing streaks have become the fashion in the National League. Yesterday’s affrays saw the Pittsburgh Pirates and the Chi- cago Cubs each win their seventh consecutive game while the Phils were losing their ninth straight and the Boston Braves their eighth. Behind steady pitching by Ray Kremer and with the aid of some heavy cai.no ading by George Grantham and Paul Waner, the Pirates turned back the Braves, 8 to 3. Grantham and Waner got sev- en hits and five runs between them. The Cubs pounded four Phil pitch- ers into a 10 to 5 defeat at Chicago, Sheriff Blake shut out the cellar- occupants until the eighth when he eased up back of a big lead his team- mates, particularly Kiki Cuyler and Freddy Maguire, had garnered for ‘im, The St. Louis Cardinals, smarting under two straight setbacks by Brooklyn, nosed out the Dodgers in the third game of the series, 7 to 6. After the Dodgers had tied the score in the eighth Ly tallying four runs, the Cards won the game in the ninth on hits by Bottomley and Hafey and Jay Partridge’s error. The New York Giants made it three in a row over the Cincinnati Reds, two singles and a sacrifice in the tenth inning ‘turning the trick. Joe Genewich held the Keds to six safeties. Freddy Lindstrom got three hits, the last driving over the ball in centerfield, snaring 12 flies, |_ i on the day of the’ fight was laid| Every is suffering from a slight out on the Hamilton County Country | flesh wound suffered in a pracuce club grounds, about four miles from ; bout.

HEENEY NEEDS BETTER SLEEP Fairhaven, N. July 17.—P)— Tom Heeney slid back into the sei ous grind of gyjnds today, after day's layoff, returning to the prac- tice of working out in the afternoon instead of the cool of the evening. Boxing at night, Heeney found, disrupted his entire program, par- ticularly his sleep, he did not get into bed until midnight or later with a result he did not get his required amount of sleep. He prefers work- ing out at, night, because the oppres- sive heat of mid-afternoon takes a lot out of him but he figures he needs to get into bed earlier.
