Speaking of Sports Sullivan, the husky American swim- mer who yesterday succeeded in ne- gotiating the" English channel, made a good bargain. He lost 20 Ameri- can pounds, but picked up 1,000 Eng- lish pounds. Not so bad, The last 24 hours were the hardest, Sullivan murmured as he droppéd off \lnto dreamland, Luque was no.mystery to the Giants yesterday. The five successive victories of the world’s champions over the Cinclnnati Reds in their most important series of the season recalls a similar per- formance on the part of the Giants two years ago. On Aug. 25, 1921, they were trailing the Pirates by seven and a half games. The teams met in a serfes at the Polo Grounds and the Giants won flve successive victories. This series turned the pennant race in their favor. Again last year they met the Cardinals, who were then in second place, and won three succes- sive games in the crucial series in St. Louis. Judging from their work of the last two seasons, the Giants are now headed toward their third conm- secutive championship. The Yankee-Browns games won, by the latter 12-10, was featured by the| ‘use of eight pitchers and 30 hits. Three homers were made. Cy Williams knocked out his 20th homer yesterday, aiding the Phillies in taking three out of four from the Pirates. The Indians got 26 hits yesterday and smothered the Senators 22-2, Brower lead the attack with six hits in six times up. The dismissal of Fohl as manager of the Browns is said “for good of the game and morale of players.” The Bernstein-Moran bout will be held at the Velodrome tomorrow night. Rickard is considering holding Leonard-White fight at the Grounds on September the Polo . A rally in the third inning nermit- ted the Athletics to win om the ‘White Sox 6-2, their second consecu- tive win after 12 straight defeats. New Haven gained in the Eastern by taking a double-header from Al- bany. 2 Rans This Week National League, | ( New York Pittsburgh Cincinnati Chicago Breoklyn St. Louis Phila.

The New Birtain City league base- ball council will meet tomorrow eve- ning in Room 207 of city hall to take up a number of matters, ac- cording to President Willlam March who states that he has received no- tice from the Falcons that they in- tend to protest the game they lost to 8t. Mary's on Saturday. This game deprived the Falcons of first place tie in the league. According to President March, the Falcons advised him that’ they will protest on the grounds that Preisser is ineligible to play with the Saints. The Saints, on the other hand, contend that Preisser's name was honestly on the eligibility list. Presi- ‘d(‘n( March says he, too, is of the opinion that Preisser's playing was according to rules. There are no other protests. The | managements that heretofore have | been peeved, have decided to let the | decisions stand. SNYDER LEADS AS HITTER Corbin Player Making Great Record This Season—Team Plays Norwich Again Saturday.* | Paul Snyder, one of the classy play- ers.in the Corbin outfit, is'making a | great reputation as a batsman this | season and in the 18 games played has | not failed to get at least one hit. This means that he has hit consecutively in 18 games, but what is more, he has hit every pitcher that has opposed him and in some games more than one moundsman has been used. .| Snyder also leads the team in stolen | bases and his batting average is .405. On Saturday the Red Sox go to Norwich to play the rubber in the series with the State hospital team, each team having won one game. Berg probably will pitch for the lccals. Tomorrow night the team practices at the park and the manager is es- pecially anxious that all players be on | hand. Fischer to Meet Howard Kinsey on Court Today | Southampton, N.
