Dy the Associated Press Baseball predictions are dnngerousz business at any time; right they're suicidal. ! When the New York Giants swept | the Cardinals into defeat in lhruu‘ wtraight games at St. Louis, some | ipersons thought the National league | ‘battle was all over but the shouting. And when the New York Yankees | gsame out of their extended slump | and eased their way back to a five- ‘game lead over the Philadelphia | “Athletics, it was freely predicted that Connie Mack had started his| bid in the American league too late | to do any good. But consider how things stand to- day. | The Cardinals again are back on top in the National league but they lead the Pittsburgh Pirates in fifth | place, but five and a half games. | The Yankees still hold the crest in the American league but their ad- vantage over the A’s has dwindled to three games. I The Cardinals owe their advantage | to the Cincinnati Reds and the Pitts- || burgh Pirates. The Reds beat the Giants two out of three and the Pi- rates have taken two of the first three games in a four game series now in progress at Pittsburgh. The New Yorkers now trail the Cards - by & game and a half. Yesterday the Corsairs, still very | much in the pennant race, flogged | the Giants into a disastrous 16 to 5 defeat, clouting five New York pitch- ers for 19 hits, good for 29 bases. Burleigh Grimes, hanging up his 22nd victory of the year, beat the Giants for the fifth straight time this season. The Cardinals took advantage of ‘this break by downing the Phillies, in & great pitchers’ battle between Jess Haines for the Cards and Benge and Walsh for the Phils. The Phil hurlers gave up only four hits but one of them was a home run by Ernest Orsatti, recrult Card first baseman, in the first inning with the hases empty. It was the only score | of the game. | Taking a double bill from the Bos- ton Braves, the Chicago Cubs vault- ed back in third place, only thres and a half games out of the lead. Pat Malone limited the Braves to six hita in thy first game and walked off with 2 4°to 1 verdict. Charlie Root was slightly outpitched in the night- cap by Bob Smith but the Braves' | defense cracked at crucial moments and the Cubs made it two wins for the day, 4 to 3. The A’s clipped a game and a half oft thme Yanks' lead by downing | Cleevland for the fourth straight | day, 1 to 0, while the champions were losing twice to the St. Loulslu Browns, 5 to 2 and 3 to 1. Rube Walberg not only held the Indians to six hits but scored the enly run of the game at Philadel- phia in the third inning. He singled to start this frame and came home | on a hit by Mickey Cochrane. The Indlans filled the bases in the ninth | but Homer Summa lined to Boley | for the third out. { The Yankees' double defeat was | directly due to some extra fine pitch- | ing by Alvin Crowder and George | Blaeholder. Crowder outpitched | George Pipgras in the opener while Blaeholder, pitted against Lefty Heimach, had the champions shut- | out in the second game until the ninth, when Tony Lazzeri crack out his 10th home run of the seas After dropping four straight games to Detroit, all by one run margins, the Boston Red Sox turned , on their tormentors and administer- ed similar medicine to the Tigers in | the final game of the series, 2 to 1. Charlie Ruffing pitched excellent | ball and needed to in the face of some very good twirling by Lil Stoner who went down to defeat with two down in the ninth. A walk to Flagstead, Todt's single and Rogell's long sacrifice fly turned the trick. American League (FIRST GAME) 8T. LOUI8 AB R Blde, 1b MeGowan, anush, Schulte, Kress, 85 .

The two teams are meeting for the first time in the baseball history of the city and delegations of root- ers for both clubs will be out in force to watch the battle. In sizing up the records of both teams, the game tomorrow appears to be an even affair. The Falcons are considered to be slightly the fav- orite though the backers of the Rangers clubs have not been 8o West—Sunday’s Game After meeting Taftville in that town this afternoon, the Kensington baseball team is scheduled to clasa with the Bristol Endees at the Per- cival Avenue grounds tomorrow aft- ernoon at 3 o'clock. The team is out to win two games over the week-end and for this reason, two extra hard games are being anticipated. Bristol is out for revenge. Last Sunday, Kensington with only eight | men, used a Bristol man in its line- up and came through with a victory over the Bell Towners. This hit a sore spot in the Bristol pride and the only balm for the injury is a victory, a decisive one, over Ken- sington tomorrow. The visiting team is one of the strongest in the Connecticut State league, With a roster studded with the names of stars past and present, the Bearing Makers are strong con- tenders for the third round cham- pionship in the league and Kensing- ton forms a big obstacle to the suc- cess of the Bristol team. The pitching selections of both managers have not yet been an- nounced.

CALIFORNIA IN LEAD N TENNIS Foar Best Women Players Enter Into Semi-Final Round Forest Hills, N. Y., Aug. 25 (@ — Boiled down to the four who pre- sumably are the best tennis players of their sex in the country, the women's national tennis champion- ship has a predominantly youthful and Californian look. Queen Helen Wills of Berkeley, Edith Cress of San Francisco, Helen Jacobs of Santa Barbara and the perennial Mrs. Molla Mallory of New York, these are the four who survived two ar- duous rounds of play yesterday to qualify for the semi-final round to- day. Miss Wills meets Miss Cross, while fate and good tennis have brought together Mrs. Mallory and Miss Jacobs who waged some nip and tuck struggles last season with honors about even, but have not yet met this year. The three Californians average little more than 20 years with Miss Cross, and Miss Wills, who is about the same age and Miss Jacobs a couple of years vounger. Mrs. Mallory who was playing big time tennis when the others were playing with dolls was the only one of a great array of gallant veterans to survive yesterday's play. She defeat- ed Miss Marjorie Morrill of Boston, one of the best of the younger cast- crn players, 3-6, 6-3, giving away some 0 years her opponent. Mrs, F Wightman of Boston, champion in 14909, 1910, 1911 and 1919, provid- cd one of the sensations of the tour- nament by putting out her old Cali- fornia rival, Mrs, May Sutton Bun- champion in 1904, enly to tall herself in the quarter-finals before the hard hitting attack of the stal- wart Miss Cross, 6-3, 6-4. Miss Wills defeated Mrs. Harper, 6-0, €-2, and Mrs. Chapin by 6-4, but she had by no means <he easy time she ordinarily enjoys. The six games Mrs. Chapin took dent than any olher player has heen from her ,represented more of a able 1o make in Miss Wills' game ments in which she won the three championships she now holds—those of United States, England and France, this scuson, or o any of the tourna- | The play of Miss Jacobs was fully Stocky, earnest Miss Jacobs pro- duced a brand of tennis in trimming the country's seventh ranking play- er, Miss Penelope Anderson of Rich- mond, 6-4, 6-1, that has boomed the gallery opinion of her chances of checking Mrs. Mallory’s bid for her ninth national championship. In the doubles title play the lead- ing teams surviving are the Wills- Wightman and Bundy-Jacobs com- bination and there is plenty of rival- ry betwéen them. In addition there remain such youthful combinations as little Evelyn Parsons of P’alo Alto and Virginia Rice of Boston, and the Cincinnati tandem of Miss Zinke and Ruth Cexman, to make it more interesting.

The greatest feature of the new dlamonds and even the old ones is |the fact that ghey are in perfect condition. The new park superin- tendent announced that he was de- termined to give the baseball teams the best diamonds possible. The six fields at Willow Brook, Walnut Hill, Washington street and North End park, which come under his super- vision are the last word in perfec- tion, as far as condition goes. The infield on the six diamonds is as smooth as pool tables and the in- fielders have no excuses when they make an error. The diamonds are kept in good condition weekly, men being set to work after each game to roll them down and put them in shape for the next battle, BERG LOSES BOUT |Latest and Most Impressive Light- weight Importation From England is Beaten. Chicago, Aug. 25 (#—Jack Berg, the latest and most impressive lightweight importation from Eng- land, has met his master in Billy Petrolle, the “Fargo Express.” His lightning rights finding their mark almost at ease, Petrolle won by a technical knockout over the Englishman in the fifth round of a scheduled 10-round match before 9.000 spectators at Mills Stadium last night. By his victory, Petrolle has been promised a match with ‘,Sfimm_v Mandell for the lightweight |title by Promoter Jim Mullen of ‘Chiczko. Only his gameness and willingness to “take it” carried Berg to the fifth {round, when his seconds mercifully |tossed in the towel. Petrolle caught right in the first round, flooring him |for a count of nine. But Berg came |up and went down nine times before |before the gong ended the round. 7 cuuslau ‘RE 1T'S =% TLL WA HERE TILL You GET BACK WHADDYA MEAN You'RE OMLY Two Down T You'Re FIVE DowWN ’ You GoT A Six oM THE SEVENTEENTH Derg on the chin with a crushing | Caaaaaaa ] TO MEET IN CITY LOOP m Teams Within Hailing Distance of First Place to Clash at Walnut Hill Park—Pirates Scheduled to Battle Cardinals—West Ends Carded to Cross Bats With Tabs—Playoff of Tie for First Place Seems Likely After Next Week—Junior League Game.

Milo held fast to his mark of the week before by getting two hits in four tries last Saturday, but Kane came from well in the rear with three hits out of four and equalled Argosy's percent- age. Each player has participated in five games. Argosy has had 22 offi- cial times at bat in that many games and made 11 hits, while Jimmy has been officially at bat only ten times and has made five hits. Hurlers have found it difficult to pitch to Kane and have given him many free passes, walking him on every occa- sion in one game. “Buggy” Fitzpat- rick still has a .500 mark for one game but does not figure in the race. Mickey Buckeri of the Burritts, climber to .485 during the week and is right behind the leaders, follow- ed by Surko of the Cardinals. The greatest advances were made by Ed- die Hayes, Ranger center flelder, who smacked out three hits and moved up to .385, and by Stan Bud- nick, Burritt first sacker, who hit four times for a perfect record and rocketed up 105 points to .340. The men now hitting .300 or bet- ter are the following: M. Argosy, Rangers, .500; Kane, Tabs, .500; Fitzpatrick, Tabs, .500; Buckeri, Burritts, .485; Surko, Cardinals, .471: Kania, Burritts, .4555 Cormier, West Ends, .407; J.

Begley's ten runs still gives that Pirate player the scoring lead, but Stan Budnick has pressed up to cight. The Burritts increased their team batting average to .296, while the Rangers moved into second place with .286, the Pirates slipping back to .265.
