Classified Ads PAGE D-—1 Brown Makes Grade as Big Time Hurler : Dodgers Jump Back Into Pennant Rac - SOUTHPAW SCORES HINSIN 14 GAVES Hurls Well Into Use After Injury Retires Marberry. BY JOHN B. KELLER. HERE'S one member of the s Washington club’s pitching staff who has been over- looked to some extent this season. He is Lloyd Brown, left- hand hurler who has been stick- ing around the outfit for some several seasons without getting due recognition. Yet this season no other hurler with the Nation- has won more games than Brown. He is credited with 14 victories, the same amount scored by Sam Jones and also by Alvin Crowder, although Crowder regis- | tered some of his wins while wear- ing the uniform of the St. Louis club before his transfer to Wash-| ington on June 14. Not until recently has Brown's value been greatly appreciated. Until Fred Marberry slid into third base in that double-header in New York on August 2 and shattered a small bone in the wrist of his pitching hand Brown was more or less overlooked. But then it was imperative that another starter be uncovered. .Brown had done some start- ing of games earlier in the season, but his main work had been done in relief roles. Since Marberry's hurt, however, this left-hander has given some fine i a starter after the big Texan was injuréd—and, by the way, Brown also is a Texan, although not s0_huge in stature as Marberry—Lloyd ‘was badly beaten by she Yankees. He came back not long after, though, to rescue Carl Fischer and lick the Indians and later pitched six scoreless innings agsinst the same club. Starting against the White Sox, Brown outpitched Lyons and® won his game in record time for the Nationals. * He pitched to victory in one hour and 22 minutes. i came his classic duel with Earl s Whitehill, Detroit southpaw who “ had seored 10 wins in a row before facing the Washington club. Brown ‘was defeated by Whitehill, but he yield- ed the Tigers but six hits and was trimmed only 2 to 1. able piece of pitching he did in that game. Undaunted, Brown returned to the “battle to bll!nlxi l;ledBmwli\s. crult-‘ itching George Blacholder. who only | :’ few days. before had bicaked the| Athletics.

He won the 880 and the mile and the 300-meter medley swim, as he had done in 1929, with Kalili pressing him close- ly in each race, but he couldn’t match the Hawailan boy’s speed in the quarter mile and lost his title.

STAN, 'HEN the flag bearers of the week day loops take the fleld in next years city| series, there’ll only be five of 'em instead of the customary six. This much was indicated this morning by G. L. Hightman, secretary of the| Terminal Y. M. C. A. | This decision, of couise, is the re- sult of that very elegant 28-to-0 drub- bing administered Capital Traction, champ of the “Mourning” League, last Tuesday by the Calvary Drakes. In seems that Capital Traction, or any of the Morning Terminal League teams, isn’t quite up to the standard of the other loop winners, and according to Hightman, this fact throws a dam- per on the Interest in the city series. But while there’ll only be five teams, this doesn’t mean thai the winner of the “early bird” circult will be denied a chance to wear the week-day crown in 1931, for the remedy worked out Had they played yesterday, Sicz would have been deprived of the services of Bob Guethler, crack left-hander, who trimmed Naval Hospital. Now, with plenty of rest, Guethler is expected to take the mound when they play tomor- row feeling like a million dollars, which doesn't give Pullman fans a whole lpt to cheer about. ‘This Police-Firemen affair on Sep- tember 6 looms as a real battle. For a while the sandlot soothsayers wouldn't give the Smoke-eaters a tumble, but, following that remarkable performance by Pitcher Hull against the Tile Setters, it appears that the hook-and-ladder men ve a twirler who spells trou- ble, with a capital T. The Tile Setters have batting power, but were unable to make & hit or a run off Hull. Ping Purdy, popular umpire, and Steve Cochrane, manager of the Na- tional Theater, were great buddies a long, long time ago. Both Ping and Steve were bat boys on the Washington club and can tell you a lot about the gives them the opportunity. This is ning Terminal Leagues are over, the vinners will play for the right to rep- | resent both loops i the series. If you like fight, take a peek at this third meeting between Olmsted Grill and the C. A. O'Briens for the senior filmplonxmp of the Capital City ague. It is doubtful if two more evenly matched teams exist. = The Grillmen took the first game and’the Patent At- torneys the second, hoth games being decided by one-run maigins and both the breaks. And then there's a further incentive. Bert Olmstead and Clarence O'Brien, backers of each team, have agreed to t 100 smackers apiece, not as a bet, ut as a prize to the winning club. When the D. C. Repair-Pullman game was postponed yesterday, due to the long-belated showers, it proved a great help to George Sicz, Repair manager. Standings in Major Leagues National League.

The Robins were dumped out of (first place when a tour of the | West brought them only 6 vic- tories in 21 games. Back in their home section they have begun to battle for a place in the pennant race again by trouncing the New York Giants. . The Robins opened the series with the Giants, which may see them go into second place or back to fourth, by slamming out a 7-to-2 victory yesterday and reducing the distance ~between second place and third to a half game. Big Jim Elliott, who came into the game after Bill Clark's dispute with Umpire Jorda had sent him out, took away the major share of what glory there was. He outpitched three oppo- nents to hold the New Yorkers to nine hits, while the Robins, their bats thundering as they were when Brooklyn led the league, piled up 15 effective wal- lops. Johnny Frederick's home run, which put the Robins ahead for the first time, and Glenn Wright's four hits in five times at. bat, were the principal slugging feats.

The Cubs found some rough going against the Pittsburgh Pirates and lost the final clash of their series, 10 to 8, in a wild hitting struggle. The defeat left Chi- cago 5> games ahead of the Giants, but enabled the Robins and St. Louis each to gain a game, placing them 6 and 6}, games behind respectively.

They remained ahead all the way, pounding out 18 singles and two home runs, while Ervin Brame managed to stop the Cubs short of a tie with 10 blows, of which three were homers. St. Louls remained a half game behind Brooklyn by winning its eighth straight game. Sparky Adams, who filled Frank Frisch's place at second base, pulled the Cards through to a 2-to-1 victory over Cincinnati. Adams scored both of the St. Louis runs. ‘The Phillies, who had lost five straight es, and the Boston Braves, who had four, met in the other National League clash and it was the longer losing streak which ended. With Sugar Sweetland pitching effectively and Fred Brickell hitting with just as much effect, Philadelphia won by a 9-to-3 score. With the Eastern clubs of the Amer- ican League enjoying a day of idleness, the activity in the junior circuit was confined to the lower-ranking clubs. The Chicago White Sox gained the big triumph of the day, taking a clear hold on sixth place by winning two games from the Cleveland Indians, holders of fourth.
