By the Associated Press. To the Brooklyn Dodgers, who have beaten the Chicago Cubs only | * twice in 18 games, goes the distinc- tion of stopping the National league leaders after they had won nmine| . gamee tn a row. The Cubs beat the |} ’ Robins, 2-¢, In the first game of s yesterday's double header, but lost | the other, 5-4. The Bruins lost the services of their inspiring catcher, ‘Gabby” Hartnett, who was splked in the foot by Gus Fellx, Brooklyn outflelder. The Cubs stayed three tull games ahead ot the Pittsburgh Pirates, who trounced the New York 7-6, In & loosely played game. Iir rors by Hornsby and Jackson aided the Corsair victory, but it was the | . ever reliable Paul Waner who drove | o * home the winning run ig the last of | /[T the ninth. The Glant defeat brought the record of McGraw's club on its western trip to seven victories against four beatings. Only two games were scheduled in the National league. Lou Gehrig’s $8th home run in the ninth inning saved the Yankees from thelr first shutout of the season. The Philadelphia Athletics greeted the Hugmen at Shibe park by pounding Duth Reuther and George Pipgras to all corners, and took an 8-1 victory. It was the first game for the Yankees on their third and last road trip. Rube Walberg pitched masterful ball for the Mackmen, allowing only s hits. Babe Ruth went hitless but Geh- rig. in addition to his home run pounded out a two-bagger. The Buster is now three homers ahead of Ruth on their duel. Ty Cobb was active in the down- fall of the New Yorkers. He drove ¥n the first run, slammed out three hits and played brilliantly in center fleld. 7 Hollis Thurston pitched Washing- ton to & 4-2 victory over Cleveland. | Garland ‘Buckeye lasted seven in-| nings on the mound for Cleveland. | Buckeye has yet to win a game from the Senators. He was touched for 11 hits and gave three bases on balls, but Washington had 11 men left on bases. The Senatorial victory gave| Harris' men an even break in the four game series. The Boston Red S anxious to increase their winning string of six straight games, -were rained out against Detroit.

The winners were never in danger as they got away to an early lead and continued to pile up their scores. The Workers used an overhand thrower in the box but it was in vain. They chang- ed to an underhand flinger but the Buckle Shop girls apparently saw no difference as they pounded the ball almost at will. “Milly” Misky, North & Judd southpaw, did great work on the slab. She allowed only four scat- tered hits and struck out 11. She didn’t allow one pass. The Butt Makers apprared to be helpless be- fore Milly’s shoots and she retired the side on strikes in two innings. She was also the slugging star of the night. §he collected four hi in five trips, one a triple to decp center. Deérey also hit hard. She got three out of four and besides, she made a beautiful catch of a liner in center fleld that seemed fair to be a hit. Rossmare turned in the feature play of the game in the fifth in- ning when she caught a towering| fly in front of the plate with one hand. It seemed impossible for her to reach it but just before the ball hit the ground, she reached forward and made the spear good. Grace also hit safely three times, one of her bingles being for the circuit. Lucy Kallins played the best game | for the losers when she two of her team's four hits fielded nicely around first base. summary. and The JUpn R. M. P.0 10 0 0 Rossmore, ¢ .

WASHINGTON GIRLS WIN Indoor Bascball Team Swamps Rep- resentatives of Smith Grounds by 37 to 22 Scorc. In a one-sided contest played at the Washington playground, the girls’ indoor baseball team of that ground defeated the girls' team of the Smith playground by a 37-22 score. The playing in the five in- nings lagged and offered nothing of interest to the spectators. Neither side had a good pitcher and thus the hall was hit all over the lot.
