FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11, 1925 ; World Results By Leased Wire —S) FOR THIRD AND FOURTH PLAGES ittsburgh and Washington All But Conceded Victory In Top Positions, But Standing Of Others Remains In Doubt. NEW YORK, Sept. 11.—(By The Associated Press.) — Blows dealt by Washington and Pittsburgh have taken most of the fight for first place out of Philadelphia and New York, but there is every indication that the season-long struggle for the third and fourth rungs in both leagues will continue to the end. PIRATES WILL LAND OPENERS Schedule For World’s Series Games In the Making. By JOHN B, FOSTER, Copyright, 1925, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Sept. 11.—As certain- ly as anything in baseball can be written down before it actually comes to pass, Pittsburgh will get the two opening games of the 1925 world series. ‘The new world zeries rules, to be used for the first time this year, pro- vide that the winning National League c:ub shall have the two open- ing games, the American League club the next three, the National League club the next two and-the winner of a coin toss any further necessary to settle the cham- ip issue. ; certain that an effort will be made to play in Washington on Sun- day as Sunday baseball is permitted there, while it is not permitted in Pittsburgh. Fortunately the new ar- rangement for’ 1925 will help that to some extent. Games number one and two can be played in Pittsburgh on October % ang 8. October 9 should then be taken for travel between Pittsburgh and Washington, although this has not been definitley decided upon, That would put game three, the opener so far as Washington is con, cerned, in the capital on Saturday, October 10, with the secorfd Wash- Angton game, or game number four, on Sunday. and game number five on Monday the 12th. The follow- ing Tuesday for travel back to Pitts: byrgh, the sixth and seventh games eoyld be played in Pittsburgh~ on ‘Wednesday and Thursday. ———— ROCKNE’S CRITICISM OF SHIFTS IN LINE STARTS DISCUSSION ny LAWRENCE PERRY- (Copyright, 1925, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Sept. 11.—When ute Rockne came out with the definite statement that he personally @i@ not approve of line shifts on the ground that they tired the big line- men and were not so effective as having the backs alone shift behind the screen of tHe line, he started something In the middle west. Certain teams have done very well indeed with the line shift, notably Yewa, under Howard Jones, Minne- sota under Dr, Williams, Illinois un- der Zuppke, West Virginia under Dr. Spears and Chicago under Dr. Stage. Wasterners will be very much In- terested in watching the actions of Chicago's tackles when the Maroons play Penn on October 24. Knute, however, refused to be, Grawa into controversy. He admits that teams have had success with the Hne shift, but nonetheless he stands firm in his opinion. Disdaining argument, he merely says succinctly: ‘I am entitled to my viewpoint.” Ignoring all that is being said pro and con, the fact remains that Rockne has done very well, indeed, ina practical way with his polnt of view.

" reason Gordon hats one are so popular. After hammering away at the third-place White Sox {n the Amer- {ean League for weeks, the Tigers and the Browns smashed the bar- rier yesterday and Chicago fell to the second division. Masterful pitching by Gaston and Wingard of the Browns, coupled with timely hitting by Herschel! Bennett, accomplished a double de- feat of Collins’ team, 4 to 2 and 6 to 4, both contests going to extra ia- uings. Sisler’s team thereby rose from fifth to third place, while Detroit, in fourth place,-was the bridge oyer which the advancing and re- treating baseball. forces marched. The Tigers could get no better than an even break with the Indians, winning the first at 6-1, and losing the second 7 to 2. The Browns are now one game ahead of the Tigers and the Sox a half game astern of Detroit. St. Louls and Boston kept up their scramble for fourth and fifth places, in the National . The Braves pulled up to within a single game of fifth place. St, Louis by sharing a double header with the Phillies, win. nipg at 6-3, after they. had been shut out at 4.0 by Carlson, The Cards made the slight advance possible by dropping thelr game with the lead- ing Pirates, 9 to 5. | The Yankees equalled a 23-year old major league record when three of their heavy batting artillerymen smacked the ball for consecutive home runs in'the opening game of a double header with the Athletics. Bob Meusel, Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig turned in the performance. A flock of additional extra base hits gave New York an easy win over Mack's men, 7 to 3, but the Phila- delphia team turned the tables in. the second encounter, 5 to 4 after 12 innings.

They follewed his daily activities at that resort, as reported through local publication, with interest. Came time for Ruth to join the rest of the Yankees in the sunny south, The feeling was general that, with the early start he had, he would be “rarin’ to go” when the season rolled around after four or five weeks of intensive training under the Florida sun. But his actions in St: Petersburgh soon convinced many close follow- ers of the team that he was not in earnest in his efforts to hold his place in baseball. He made a joke of training—com- ing and going at will, He kept irregular hours, He ate as no athlete should. And_he laughed at all efforts to make Kim see the error of hjs. ways. I said frankly in my first efforts from the Yankee camp that Ruth, contrary to the impression that had been created, was far from form— that .he faced the necessity of hard training and sane Jiving if he want- ed to be fit at the start of the sea- son, I felt then that-I was treating Kim kindly. That. has. been the tendency all through his spectacular career—to give him the considera- tlon due a big boy, Then came his collapse. The public, with its whole- some liking for the big boy, sym- pathized with him. They watched for the dally reports as to his con- dition. Some said—and we wonder !f Babe heard the assertions—that {t would be a calamity if his illness proved fatal ‘When he finally “beat the game” and left the hospital his thousands of followers waited for him to re turn to the lMneup, fearful that he had lost his batting eye during his illness and consequent layoff. When he failed to get going they were Prone to be lenient with him, “He's still weak, Give him time to get Lis strength and then watch the big boy,” they said. And now it turns out, according to Manager Huggins, who backs hiv statements with a $5,000, fine and tuspension of Ruth, that the latter Was not making a truly earnest ef- fort to get back his strength, fall d mak- hats to That's be If this state. ment rings true = your next hat will / When the Yarkkees acquired revicdlidey ‘Arecciotion catching! | t.

The public forgave Ruth for his first lapse a few years ago and when he tried to come back in 1928, they pulled for him to a man. But he will find few sympathizing- with him in his new. predicament. Am next spring the world will not be asking “Will he set a new record this year?” as they wait for the season to open, There will be just 1 mild conjec- ture uttered occasionally as to whether or not he will even be playing—unless he shows the world between now and then that he has BEALENBAGH IS (Copyright, ,» Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Sept. 11.—In view of Jimmy Slattery’s defeat and kayo by Dave S| fans will inclined to fayor Paul Berlenbach’s chances against him to- night. asked to travel more than six rounds and it semes foolhardy for his mat- ager to ask him to leap into a 15+ rounder with a punishing hitter like the light the slow speed and set himself for a one SLATTERY HAS First in News OUT OUR WAY.

Of course the Buffalonian is faster afoot and quicker with his hands than Delaney, but he should bear in mind that he not yet is as afty as the more experienced French-Canadian. If Slattery saw the fight between Burly and Delaney he saw Jack bat- tered from one side of the ring to the other for four rounds before he was abl to put over the deelsiye punch. The difference between a six and 15-round bout will be against Slat- tery, not only in the way of a drain upon his strength but in a mental way.
