Philadelphia Cleveland St. Louis Washington Boston 400 375 CHICAGO, May 15—Extra in- ning games have been common in the American Association race this season, but old timers never will forget the time Indianapolis and Minneapolis had to play 37 innings to decide ome contest. It was back in 1913 and the game stood for a play-oft for four months. \ The first game was played on April 25, ending in a one-all tie in six innings when rain halted the fray. The second attempt was on June 15, when darkness stopped the game at the end of the ninth inning with the score 6 to 6. On August 7, they tried once more to break the deadlock. This time darkness again interfered, in the thirteenth inning, with the score knotted at two each. The next day, however, the teams suc- ceeded in deciding the game, the Millers batting out an 11 to 1 victory. ————— YALE TO PLAY ENGLISH GOLFERS ON NEW COURSE NEW HAVEN, Conn., May 15— ‘The Yale golf course' which is seasoning for its second- playing .440 | winter season. 310 Mr. Lou Gehrig will Babe Ruth the run of his life for home run honors in 1927.

Time Maker is considered by many turf ex. perts as the stand out colt of the He is the grand- son of the unbeaten Colin on his mother’s side and a great-grand- son of Ben Brush on his sire’s side, a considerable pedigree to be seriously considered. Sortie, a bay colt by On Watch from Kippy by Broomstick, own- ed by A. C. Schwartz, is another one which bears watching. Sortie was late getting to the races last fall but when he did arrive he broke the track record at Bowie for a mile and 70 yards, a note- worthy feat for a two-year-old. Dopesters, too, are taking few liberties with Harry Payne Whit- ney’s Victorian, brother of Whis- kery, winner of the 1927 Derby. In the Whitney band in addition are Agitator and Groucher, both quite capable of showing their heels to a high class field Admiral Cary Grayson’s import- ed colt, Strolling Player, is a half brother of Call Boy, winner of last year’s English Derby, and Strolling Player has displayed his worth on two or three occasions abroad.
