f WALKS MOSTIL. | AND FOLLOWER | ~ WALLOPS PILL George Redfern’s Triple Proves Falacy of His Rat- ing as Weak Hitter STANDING UNALTERED Cardinals and Giants Win Their Respective Games in National League (By the Associated Press) The intentional pass may be a good thing in some cases—but it also may prove a boomerang. Lefty Heimach, the Yankees’ newly ac- quired pitcher. made that discovery yesterday. R Bill Cissell opened the ninth in- ning for Chicago with a single, and advanced to second on Berg's sacri- fice. Adkins made it two out with a fly. In this position the Yankee board of strategy decided to pass Mostil and give George Redfern, rated one of the weak hitters of the league, a chance to make the third out. The supposed weak hitter romptly confounded this strategy by leaning on the first ball pitched for a triple that sent Cissell and Mostil across the plate and put the game safely on ice. The final count was 5 to 2 in favor of the White Sox. With a gaping hole left in the American league line by this defeat of the leaders, the Athletics allowea themselves to be thrown for no gain by a group of embattled Detroit Tigers led by Elam Vangilder. The Detroit pitcher held the Philadel hians to nine scattered hits, and Ricars won bv a 4 to 1 score. “In the other American league games “Sad Sam” Jones had a stingy day and gave the Browns only four hits, which failed to net them a run, while the Washington batters were crossing the plate three times, and Uhle did a somewhat similar feat for the Indians, giving them a 2 to 1 victory over the Red Sox. it The Cardinals and the Giants in the National league reversed the Yankee-Athletic situation. Instead of losing, both won their games, and St. Louis clung to its precarious 2%-game lead. “Old Pete” Alexan- der resumed his customary role as hero on the mound. Making his first appearance after a period of illness. Alex gave the Braves only seven hits while the Cards batted out a 6 to 1 victory. Meanwhile the Giants were seeing to it that they did not fall behind in the race, by battering the Chicago Cubs all over Wrigley field to win 10 to 2. The race for third place in the National league also remained ur- changed. While the Cubs were los- ing to the Giants, their rivals for third place, the Cincinnati Reds, dropped a game to the lowly Phillies, 6 to 4. The two-run margin of vic- tory came on a freak play when Southern tried to dodge a pitched ball and his bat connected for a single that drove in two runs. The fast-moving Pirates regis- tered a slight gain by handing the Robins a second straight defeat by @ 4 to 2 score. STAR DEMANDS TILDEN ENTER New York, Aug. 15.—(*)—Francis T. Hunter of New Rochelle, N. Y., second ranking American tennis player, has joined his doubles part- ner, “Big Bill Tilden” in the battle of the United States Lawn Tennis as- sociation. Unless Tilden receives an invitation to play in the annual west matches at Forest Hills Friday and Saturday, Hunter will not take in them, he announced yester- jay. Tilden, who still is at odds with the U. S. L. T. A. over the charges of professionalism pending against him which will not be settled until ugust 24, was not invited to rep- resent the east in the matches. Al- though he is eligible to play in tournaments until he is tried and proved guilty. “Tilden is eligible to play in the matches,” Hunter said, “and unless the eastern association puts a repre- sentative team on the field I will not play.” By a “representative team” Hunter admitted, he meant one that included Tilden.

Mrs. Bundy, one of the most famous figures in the game and the rea! veteran of the play, won the title in 1904. Mrs. Mallory has not won the championship since 1915. BREWERS GAIN IN ASSOCIATION Chicago, Aug. 15.—(P)—If the Milwaukee Brewers have anything to say about it, Indianapolis may have to contend with them for first Place honors in the American Asso- ciation pennant race. Yesterday the Brewers ran their string of consecutive victories to eight by trouncing Columbus, cellar champs, 8 tv 2, while Minneapolis’ hold on second place was weakened by a 5 to 4 defeat at the hands of the Louisville Colonels. The Indians, however, bested St. Paul by a 6 to 0. Kansas City’s Blues recently nudged into fourth place by the Brewers, won from Toledo 4 to 3, in their efforts to overtake Mil- waukee’s hard hitting nine.

On His Own? Hardly It’s hardly likely that Gene, fol- lowing his wedding to Mary sephine Rowland Lauder, will cra: the Register’s ultra-select colum “on his own.” It’s much more prob- able his name will tag along in brackets after that of his wife—in- dicating that so far as social stand- ing is concerned, as the Register sees it, Mrs, Tunney will be the real goods and Gene an accident of mar- riage. jut even that will be something for both society and the prize-fight- ing profession to think about. It’s not at all a rule of the Social Reg- ister association that every time a lady registrite marries the name of her spouse is given space in the haughty voluthe. 6 Irving Berlin’s Case There was the case of Irving Ber- lin, for instan Social eminence higher than ‘enjoyed by the Clarence Mackay y is not to be had. But when Ellin Mackay eloped ith the song writer, did Berlin get a line of Social Register t; ra le id not! On the contrary, Ellin Mac- kay’s name was eliminated! The Social Register Association sues no. statements to the news. papers, no official or unofficial com. muniques as to its plans for includ- ing new names in or excluding old names from the Register. But Tun- ney is well sponsored his matri- monial invasion of society, and that i disposition of his case will be in any kin to the disposition of Irving ’s is very improbable. One Big Difference Clarence Mackay bitterly angered by his daughter's marriage. Mary Lauder’s family seems well Pleased with Gene. If Tunney is led into the Register by his wife, his name will appear in but one edition, thus: “Lauder, Miss Mary J. R.... Married at Greenwich Conn qunney Mr James J.” There- after Mrs. Tunney’s name would be unaccompanied by that of her hus- goes to the length for his own self- id. If the Register, of listing Tunne: the entry will be a bold “Tunney Mr & Mrs James J (Mary J R Lauder).” Miss Anne Morgan was respo! sible for society’s first warming up to pugilism and pugilists. This was when she promoted a lightweight championship fight between Benny Leonard and Ritchie Mitchell as a wartime Liberty Loan benefit. Since then the social -elite have turned out to one big boxing match after another —notably the recent Tunney-Heeney matter. Abroad, the social trend has been ren more distinct. This year, for instance, a bout between Visecunt Knebworth, son of the Er*! of Lyt- ten, and Constable Bone of the Lon- don police was a society attraction of the first water.

Aug. 15.—()— Sammy Mandell never was much of a puncher in the days he was climb- ing to the world’s lightweight cham- poms, but in recent months he as demonstrated that there is steam in the lightni left and the accurate right of his. Johnny O'Donnell of St. Paul found it out here last night, when Mandell peed him after eight rounds of fighting. O’Donnell’s trouble was that he was outclassed. For seven rounds he took an artistic drubbing, most of that time with his left eye closed. He was sent to the floor at the close of the eighth round, the bell sound- ing just as the referee had tolled a count of two. The referee examin O'Donnell during the intermission and then announced the fight was over. ‘ITALIAN MEETS RISKO TONIGHT New York, Aug. 15.—(?)—The great man hunt—for the man who is to fill Gene Tunney’s shoes as heavyweight champion of the world —gets under way tonight. In the first of the elimination bouts that are expected to produce a new cha: pion, Roberto Roberti of Italy meets johnny Risko of Cleveland, at Ebbets Field.

The committee is confident that to help finance the tourney. Two of the favorite teams in the Bismarck and Steele clash on the Bismarck athletic field at 3 p. m. Steele, with a reorganized team, is wiping up every team that it meets in the district. The game they lost to Bismarck by the over- whelming score early in the season was one of the few games the neighboring crew lost. Steele may use either Lindbloom or Rafferty, Fargo hurlers, ‘on the mound in the Sunday contest, while Captain Eddie Tobin of the Grays may choose Doc Love, who has van- quished Jamestown in his last two contests. Steele has beaten Jamestown every game that the two teams have played this season and has been eager to meet the Grays in a second contest to prove that the first game didn’t indicate their true strength. After winning a thrilling game in the ninth inning from the Jim- mies last week-end the Bismarck club, with full strength ready to enter the next contest, is confident of taking Steele’s measure for the second time. Fans may get an idea of what the tournament will be like by watching the two teams fight it out in the last pretournament game. ed ’_Yesterday’s Games i LD , NATIONAL LEAGUE R H E Philadelphia 6 10 1 Cincinnati 4 8 0 Benge vis; Luque, Jab- lonowski and Picinich.

Doing Well With an Inferior and ‘Badlucked’ Club; Own- ers Consider Change BY HENRY L. FARRELL (NEA Service Sports Writer) Two or three and perhaps four Major league clubs will make change in management before the 1929 season starts. The clubs prac- tically committed to a reorganiza- tion are the Detroit Tigers and the Pittsburgh * Pirates, e Chicago White Sox, in spite of a provisional Promise to Lena Blackburne, are dickering for another new leader. And, more surprising, the Washing- ton Senators ree will start the next campaign without Bucky Harris. 3 is Considering that Harris gave Washington two championships and has been doing very well with an inferior and “‘bad-lucked” team, it may be surprising that the club owners are considering a change in management. But, if nothing hap- iby before the winter meetings to lock the transfer, Harris will be- come the manager of the Tigers. Circumstances Compel It The circumstances that almost compel the Washington owners to make a change in management are entirely of a financia} nature. Har- ris is one of the highest salaried managers in the game. The club lost a lot of money last year and has lost so much already this sea- son that it really is in financial difficulties. Clarke Griffith, owner of the club, is grateful for the valuable serv- ices that Harris has given to the club but he knows that the club has to be rebuilt entirely and that the material available cannot be made into another winning combination for several years even under the most brilliant manger or miracle- maker in the world. Harris knows of the financial condition of the club and he is pre- ae to take a cut in salary when ‘is contract expires at the termin- ation of this season. He feels that when the club is losing money he should be willing to take a reduc-|¢, tion in salary because it is largely up to the manager to keep the gates caste jucky Likes Washin; He wants to stay in shington even at a reduced salary but he figures the club migh benefit by a change. He feels confident that if a change is to be made he will not be transferred to a club he would not care to play with and he would like to go to Detroit. It is known that Frank Navin wants him if Griffith will let him go and Griffith is said to be willing to discuss the transfer. It would be the obviously fair thing for Griffith to consider the picterane of his young meng if e is to make a change. larris has earned and returned dividends on the salary paid to him and it would be imposing upon fine sports- manship for the Washington offi- cials to whack his salary in half and saddle him with a team that is not going any place for at least Detroit Js S Detroit has a it appears to ing and with who has recognized al jer club mn is a tough ll club and the is tter ball club than. be in the league stand- & playing manager, lity as a leader, in charge of the team, the Tigers certainly ought to become a first division club.
