Chickens may not be hunted except between Oct. 1 und 15 inclusive. Display windows about the city are now stocked with shells for all types and sizes of guns used in hunting birds, guns of all gauges, hunting clothes, duck carriers, duck call whistles, hip rubber boots, camping supplies, decoys, oar locks, boat equipment, gun equipment, and many other things indicative of the roaching sporting season. at wild ducks are plentiful in the state this year is indicated by the protests received by Martin A.

Tough schedule is right, with games against Southern Methodist, Harvard, Yale, Notre Dame, Nebraska and Southern California to be played. And those West Pointers know they need plenty of practice to breeze through that gang of opponents with any sort of success. Here are some glimpses of the initial workcut.

Other leading regular batsmen are: Cisler, Boston, .347; Traynor, Pittsbu-gh, 345; Lindstrom, New York, .843; Roettger, St. Louis, .341 (in 68 games only); Bottomley, St. Louis, 338; Grantham and Brickell, Pittsburgh, 337; and Hafey, St. Louis, Herman, Brooklyn, and Ho- gan, New York, .336. Paul Waner leads the league not only in individual batting but also in runs scored, with 128; in hits, with 200; in doubles with 46, and in triples with 18.

Hoyt now has won 17 and lost 4 for an average of .810, while Grove’s rec- ord is 21 and 6, or .778.

Cornelius McGilli- cote » there again. After fourteen weary years of waiting; of endless experiments with infields that reminded him of that famous million dollar (present values) combination of 1914 only be- cause they were so different; of con- stant and patient training of young- sters who never quite made the major: league grade—after all the bitter disappointments of more than a decade, the tall taciturn tactician of the Philadelphia athletics again is on the threshold of the promised land that has eluded him so long. Right on top of the American League ‘standing are the Philadel- phia Athletics today, the first time since 1914 they’ve reached the crest at this stage of the season. In that year of the dim baseball past, Cor won the pennant but- fost four straight to the Boston Braves in the world’s series. Then he broke up his super-team, little how. long it would be before he moulded together a successor worthy of the name. True enough, the A’s title to the lead is not clear. They hold it on even terms with Miller Huggins’ staggering champions, the New York Yankees. But the advantage, for the moment at least, is all in Connie Mack’s favor. His A’s are coming with a rush. The Yankees are. faltering badly, shorn as they are of the over-whelming confidence that was theirs early in July when they had blasted their way to a 13- game lead over the field. The A's crashed through to the top with a bang yesterday with a double triumph over the Red Sox 1-0 and 7-3 while the Senators wer2 taking the Yankees’ measure in both games of. a double header 11 to 0 and 6-1. The results of those four affrays left the Philadelphians and the 1927 champions tied at the top with 87 victories against 47 defeats. Bob Grove. Mack’s left-handed ace in the hole, held the Sox to four hits, struck out 11 men and came home with a 1 to 0 victory in the first game at Boston, It was Grove’s 22nd win of the season, the last 14 coming without a break. With so much drama in the Amer- knowing ican e. the National’s pennant struggle will draw little attention until ‘after the Yankee-Athletic ‘k,| struggles next week. The St. Louis Cardinals boosted their advantage over the field to five games by tak- ing over the Pittsburgh Pirates for the second straight day, 6 to 3. __ The Chicago Cubs walloped Cir- cinnati 11 to 1, cracking ont 19 nits off.

Time of the second game will be an- nounced at the theater after the first game tomorrow. Standing room only will be available to late comers, it is indicated. With the New York Yankees and the Philadelphia Athletics in a tie for the leadership of the American league today, Bismarck baseball fans will see the two leaders battle out their series tomorrow, Tuesday, and ‘Wednesday. The Bismarck fans will see the games play by play on an electric scoreboard at the Rex theater. The reports of each play in the series will come over the Western Union wires and be relayed to the Rex theater where they will be flashed on the electric board immediately. The last three world series have been displayed in this fashion in Bis- marck, Local fans are “up in the air” over the close race that has been staged in the American league this year after the New York Yankees sone to tumble from their 13-game lead. Scribes all over the United States have been trying to solve the reason for the Yankee downfall. Many at- tribute it to the loss of Tony Laz- zeri, infielder, who was injured when the slump began and has returned to the lineup only recently. Seribes are giving the Athletics the advantage in the coming series for the reason that the A’s are play- ing uphill while the Yanks are play- ing downhill baseball. Bob “Lefty” Grove, has won 14 consecutive games, bringing his total for the season to 22. Grove is expected to BBASE ¢ go big in the coming series but he hasn’t been able to whip the Yanks this year. ¢—<<_—___—_——_-_—_- | Road Report | o_O Highways throughout North Da- kota generally are in good condition, according to the weekly bulletin is- sued today by the state highway de- partment.
