CHANGE | A, ~ * ELKS WIN FROM VETS INFIRST SERIES BATTLE Koski Hurls Bills to 9 to 1 Victory Over Legion in Sunday Game The Elks snapped out of that lethargical state that they have been in for the last several games, and proved that they were no longer to be considered the “goats” of the City League. Under the leadership of their manager, Koski, the Bills went out to the park yesterday and ran away with the first game of the Little World Se- ries from the Legion to th etune of 9 to 1. For the first few innings the game was rather close, but in the twilight session the Elks steadily walked away from the Vets, while the latter were still unable to solve Koski’'s deliveries as the curtain fell. The Elk manager went for five innings on one hit, but weak- ened in the late inning, although ne could count eleven strike outs when it was all over with. Junge,| Legion pitcher, was bothered some- what with a sore arm, but man- aged to get until the last three innings. that the Vets in the seventh The only run made was a gift inning. Snow single and reached second when| Lottsfeldt layed down a perfect bunt along the third base line that just wouldn't go foul. tempt to steal third, Snow wa: called out, although the decisio: seemed dobutful fo some of the fans. But that didn't stop Lowe! from cracking a single to left. ‘While Jernberg let it get by him,| Lottsfeldt turned on the horse- power and scored the only run for the Warriors. As for the Elks, they managed | to scrape through the game with nine counters, although such things were few in the earlier innings. Their first attack came in the first inning and netted one run. Blake made a line drive to left, stole second, went to third when Lottsfeldt made a bobble at second, | and scored when Snow threw low, on MacSpadden's fielder's choice, to the plate. Two in the fifth for the Bills. Garn got to first when Snow failed to grab Lowe's throw. Ab- bie went to second on a wild pitch, and from there he tallied when MacSpadden lifted a single to left. 'Mac’ took second on the throw in, and a single by Buss Orme, and an error by Lowe on Jim Orme's grounder, sent him across the plate with the third Elk run. ‘Came the seventh and Manager Koski doubled to left to bring in MacSpadden and Buss Orme, Ers- kine had scored earlier on a double steal that he pulled off with Mac- Spadden’s assistance. Two more in the eighth. Buss Orme singled to center scored both Kelly Blake and MacSpadden. The final Elk run came in the ninth as Jernberg singled, went to third on Koski's second double, and scored on Livingston's high fly to right field. Fielding honors for the day un- questionably went to Willie Rod- enberg in center field who amazed the fans with some beautiful catch- es. Altogether Rodenberg made five catches, and three could be classified as difficult. The most outstanding snare ,came in the third when he robbed Garn of a double, by leaping With one hand to bring down a line drive. Ers- kine also made a good catch in the sixth when he went back’ of first to rob Hagerup of a single and the Legion of a run or two. Poor Jack Diringer! He, who has been hitting them high, wide, and handsome during tHe season, just couldn’t see them and struck out five times.

They are Carl Cline, Denver attorney; Clarence Ireland, former Colorado Attorney General, now | practicing law there; Milton Carl- {son, Denver business man; and {L. M. (Ike) Le Cron, dealer in athletic goods in Los Angeles. Cline was the flashiest of the four, stepping the 100 in 9.8 sec- jonds and the 220 in 214. In ad- dition to winning these events in {the conference meet, he took the 440 to make one of the most dif- ficult sweeps in major track sports. Ireland also was a sprinter. Carlson was regional half-mile champion and Le Cron ran in No. 3 position in the relays. The atter's vacation trip to Denver rought all the former teammates together for the firs time since hanging up their running shoes. e “ALLEY RATS OF CHICAGO” DISCHARGED HOOD RIVER, Oregon, Aug. 13. —Twenty-five reputed leaders and participants in an instruction CCC camp near Wyeth, are enroute to Chicago, dishonorably discharged.

Long lines of fans along the ticket windows at Navin Field for office, weekday as well as Sunday games show how Detroit, long recognized as one of the best sport towns in the nation, has gone “tiger crazy.”| Ditch Defeatist Complex Color, fire, dash—call it what | i i ! ™ | you will—the Tigers have it this and the fans love it. A scrap- bunch of ball players, “sec- ond division-minded” in the other ye uddenly hts rallied behind a few leader- and aroused the city to a baseball fever unknown in years. “That’s Cochrane,” and men, wo- cmen and children point out the Bengal pilot and catcher as he ¢omes to the plate. “Boy—If the Tigers win today and the Yanks lose it will be an- other game lead!” The man on the street, in the in the factory, is talking baseball, arguing baseball. One fan may tell you the Tig- ers will “fold up” late in the sea- son—but he will be howled down by the others who can mathemati- cally prove that they “can’t miss now.” Qn street corners, ears attuned to store-front loudspeakers, are | spring than any manager publicity was accorded Cochrane when he arrived in Detroit last in r cent years. He was the toast of the town—a town which began early to speculate on a werld scries this fall. and color that marked his play as a member of the Philadelphia Ath- letics, has led the Detroit team in a pennant charge in which every fan in the city is taking part. Cochrane has, in truth, often put himself on the spst and has come through Pin tling in tight sit- uations in which he could have ent cne of his players to the plate, “Mike"” has taken his “cut” and produced when his hit meant the zame. Fighting for .cvery game, the Pigers have won victories after railing opponents to late innings of the contest. Fast, sparkling dou- sle plays which cut-off opposing rallies—great base running—a tight, hy defense in the outfield— and power at the plate—that's why the fans like the T and be- lieve they will take the American league flag. Already world series reservation requests are being received at Navin field—and ticket sellers who an- swer that the pennant isn't won yet are met with a scornful ‘‘they're in, brother—they're in now!” TRADE BALANCE STEADIES CHILE SANTIAGO, Chile, Aug, 13.
