(By The ed Press) Associat 5 A new act in baseball's revue promises to sustain inter- est until the final curtain of the season. “The dance of the turning worms” was presented yes- terday by a chorus which included the Cardinals, Reds, Phillies and Athletics, T Browns and Indians were also billed ‘for the act but the former were delayed by rain and TIGERS MUST TRIM YANKEES Only Hope of Ty Cobb’s Men Rests in Clean Sweep to Finish. By JOHN B, FOSTER. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW. YORK, Sept. 17.—The De- trolt Tigers kept themselves in the running in the spirited American league pennant race by defeating the Washingtors but thelr only chance now is to trim the Yanks and then wipo up the floor with Hoston and Philadelphia, Bven then it is no certainty that the Washingtons would not win out. Last week showed the greatest loss to Brooklyn of any of the Wa- tional league contenders and the most beneficial gain to Pittsburgh. The Giants moved evenly. -The Brooklyns now have two more de- feats chalked against them than the New Yorkers and, as®has been remarked before, it is the blooming defeats which do everlastingly eat up a° team’s earnings at this stage of the race. More and more {t looks as if the National league pennadt may be de- elded by the difference between the New York and the Brooklyn clubs on their season's series, which is a matter of three games, Pittsburgh will have to clean up both of them in order to have a look-in, The Yankees had a grand chance to tie Washington for the lead Sun- day but Thurston pitched against them one of the better class of games which he delivered earlier in the season and the White Sox were enabled thereby to break their win- ning streak. Washington to maintain Its speed against Detroit, should have won the Sunday game. That would have given the Senators 15 victories for the season against the Tigers, It is very doubtful if the Washing: tons are really a 15 game team against’ Détroit. Brooklyn and Cincinnat! have fin- ished their season's series. So have New York and. St, Louls in the Na- tional. Brooklyn won 12 games and Cincinnati 10. That {s a bigger tri- umph for Brooklyn than it appears to be because at the beginning of the season Cincinnat! was regarded as a 15-7 combination, —————»—— - NEW YORK—Jack Zivic of Pitts- burgh scored a technical knockout over Archie Walker of Brooklyn in the first round of a scheduled ten round bout. HAR STAYS COMBED, GLOSSY Millions Use It- Few Cents Buys Jar at Drugstore the latter missed their cue, The Cardinals scored the biggest hit of the day by smothering Brook- lyn under a 17 to 3 score which dragged the Robins another half game away from the Giants and nearer the Piratés, Jim Bottomley established what is thought to be a modern major league record by driving in 12 runs. Cincinnati collaborated by split- ting a doubleheader with the Giants, losing the first game, 6 to 1, and winning the second, 3 to 1, “The lowly Phillies". arose to divide a double bill with the Pirates. One big inning in which Cooper was touched for seven hits and six runs lost the first game, 6 to 1, for the Corsairs, who came back strongly to win the second, 18 to 7. As a result of the surprise party, the parade of tHe leaders in the National league was held up. The Gla are still two and one half games ahead of the Pirates, who are now only one game behind Brooklyn. While the Yankees watched the rain at St. Louis, Washington broke the tie for first place, and took a half game lead in the race by beat- ing Cleveland, 6 to 2, Eddie Rommel held Detroit to seven hits while his mates batted out a 14 to 2 Athletic victory which shoved the Tigers five games be- hind the leaders. Sheely’s three base hit with the bases filled gave the White Sox a commanding lead which developed into a 8 to 4 victory, The Cubs instituted a bit of move- ment in the submerged portions of the National league by winning twiee from Boston by scores of & io 8 and 4 to 2 and going into fourth place, $ BIG LESSONS ARE SEEN IN ~ LATE EVENTS By WALTER CAMP. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORIx, Sept. 17.—Never was there such a crowding together of important athletic events as \there has been in the last fortnight, and seldom, if ever, have there been more important lessons to be learned from them. In the first place, golf “Swipers” learned the salutary lesson that while they might intimidate some opponents, there were those who re- fused to be knocked out by mere length of drive. This lesson was hammered home not only to the men but to the women, one of the most notable instances being Miss Mary K. Browne's defeat of Glenna Col- lett. ? A similar lesson was taught on the tennis courts, for Patterson could not smash the Kinseys out of court, nor intimidate Richards or |"Widen by knocking the cover off the ball, Another lesson learned in golf wus that no man is an “easy mark” and even our wonderful aggregation for the Walker cup had their hands full it turned oyt, and displayed great nerve in coping with the situ- ation, Who would have supposed that Storey, for instance, would have set such a pace as he did against Oulmet—39 out and 24 in for a 73 in the morning!

CHICAGO, Sent, 17.—(By The Associated Press) .— Names of players on six major league baseball clubs which are contenders for the pennants in the American and Na- tional Leagues will be submitted to Baseball Commissioner Landis at a special meeting to be held Sunday in New York, Representatives of the six clubs have been invited FOOTBALL QUESTIONS ADDRESS: Lawrence Perry, Special Footh; Corr of the Casper Tribune, 814 World Building, New York, If you have some question to ask about football— 53 fe; If you want a rule interpreted— If you want to know anything about a play— Write to Lawrence Perry, for {ifteen years an authority on the game as writer and official, IC you want a personal reply en- close a stamped, self-addressed envelope, Otherwise your quos- tion will be answered in this column, (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune.) Question—In a game on a muddy field a player tackles the back carry- ing the ball who has reached .the defending player's two yard line, The ball carrier is downed but slides on across the goal line, Is this a touchdown? The tackler of course goes over the line grasping the back. Answer—Not according to the rules committee who in an opinion on the subject says the ball should go back to the two yard line, or where ever first tackled. Rule 6, section 13(A) is brought forth to bulwark this ruling. But the writer cannot see that it applies. In other words, were the writer the referee he would feel the scoring side vhs rightfully entitled to its score. On the other hand the approved ruling of the rules committee and not the referee's personal opinion is the thing that stands. Question—In a football game played \with the fence behind the goal very close to the fleld of play a back carries the ball over the line and then fumbles it. In the scramble to get it the ball bounds over the fence. A member of the team which had carried the ball back of the line seales the fence and falls on the ball. Is this a touchdown? Answer—Yes, unless there has been a ground rule to some other effect. ie ee For results try a Tribune Clas sified Ad.

Selecting the best player in the men's and wo- men's. decision is no more than the formality and the exertion of writ: ing Wiliam T, Tilden and M Helen Wills on the slip of pape While in an extreme case, the winner of the national champion- ships might not be the best player in the country, there is no doubt as to the standing of Tilden and Miss Wills. They are both head and shoulders above their classes. Tilden, because of his differences with the association officials, pas: through a season of comparative inactivity as far as tournament com- petition was concerned. He did a jot of playing, of course, but before en- try Into the national tournament in defense of his championship, he had confined his game principally. to the exhibition circuit. Tilden could have cinched first place on the ranking lst, however, ff he had played only once during the searon Because in that one tour- nament he demonstrated most con vincingly that he {gs not only the best player in the United Statés but the world's champion, After the most brilliant season of her career, Mise Helen Wills, the 18 year-old national women’s champion did eyen more than Tilden to win first place on the ranking list. Her claim for a world’s championship was not us firmly established as that of Tilden's but she accomplished enough during a busy ‘season to make her position clear as the wo- men's world’s champion for the sea son at least. The pretty, young California girl won the Olympic and national sin- gles championship. With Mrs. ores Wightman, Boston, she won the Wimbiedon, Giympic and Amer- ican doubles championship, and with young Vincent Richards she won the American mixed doubles championship. Very little more could have been accomplished by any player. While first places on both rank: ing lists are removed from all doubt the second for the men and women pls will give the rang ing committee plenty to ponder over and figure. In the past three or four years the committees could mark down automatically the first three places and then start to worry about the players lower down. Bill Johnston and Mrs. Molla Mallory have hel for years the priority rights on second place, but things are different this year, Johnston of course, was the run- ner-up in the national champlon- ships to Bill Tilden and that ‘should count 4s something, as it might be figured that this made him the sec- ond best player in the country. First in News Of All Events WELL, (= 1 WAS YOU, 10 Go HUNTIN! FoR @ es eke ats LA RANKING STARS IS BIG TASK Many tennis critics, however, feel that young Vinnie Richards accom. plished enough this season to give him the position next to the cham: pion, Richards gave Tilden a much hard- er fight in the semi-final round of the nationa! championships than Johnson did in the final round At one time during his match with Tilden {t looked s if the youngster were going to defeat the champion and Tilden’s escape was due only to the superiority of his service. In every other department of the game Richards had outplayed and outclassed the champion, Johnston was beaten portant Seabright tournament. is true that he might have been saving hintself for the national championship and the Davis Cup challenge round, but the committee in making its selections is forced to consider resulta and not motives Dick Williams had a very bad season, and he certainly will not be able to win the third place that he was given last season. Howard Kinsey, the young Callfornian, cer tainly should be rated above Wil Mams and it fs very likely that. he. Wil! be no lower than fourth place on the lst. The appointment of Kinsey to a place on the defending Davis Cup team seemed to indicate that the committee regarded him a8 the fourth best player in th ccuntry, Mrs, Molla Mallory, women's champion, recond plac Ume in ye er, this s in the im It the former who was in last year for the first » may be ranked lov ason, She had a yer bad season at Wimbledon and Paris and in the American tournaments she did not show much of her for mer game.
