NORTH & JUDD GIRLS WIN CHAMPIONSHIP IN GIRLS INDUSTRIAL BASEBALL LEAGUE—COLLIERS MAKE SURE OF PENNANT "IN JUNIOR CITY LOOP—STATE BOWLING LEAGUE TO OPEN TONIGHT—GIANTS ONLY ONE POINT BEHIND SECOND PLACE GIVING CARDS PEN NANT DRIVE PUNCH GIANTS BACK IN RUNNING AFTER 'l_‘i_l(lN_G TWIN BILL| 1y M TME St. Louis Cardinals and Chicago Suffer Defeats and New York Team Is One Percentage Point Behind Second Place—Cincinnati Reds and Pirates Win— White Sox Triumph Over Detroit Tigers — Wash- ington Senators End Home Season By Losing to Red Sox. By the Associated Press. In the excitement over Connle Mack's bold bid for the American league pennant, the desperate battle being waged in John Heydler's cir- cuit has been somewhat overlooked for the past week or so. While the Athletics and the | Yankees had an off-day vesterday before resuming their vital four- game series at the Yankee stadium the New York Giants inaugurated their four day eight-game series at Boston by taking both ends of a double-header with the Braves and |q ithereby pushed themselves back into | the thick of the running. This double victory, combined with defeats for St. Louis and Chica- 0, left the Giants only a single per- contage point back of the Cubs for second place and but three games| removed from the league-leading Cardinals. Notwithstanding the story the standings tell, the Giants are face to .face with virtual elimination from | "the race. They are confronted with the task of playing three more dou.‘, ble-headers with the Braves in as| many days and the manager who | .can get hetter than an even break | out of that arrangement deserves a |\ vote of commendation. But the Giants had no trouble yesterday and they may get through this baseball nightmare with a minimum of damage. Only two pitchers were required to win the first two games of the series and | pitching, of course, is the principal problem when double-headers pile .up. Fred Fitzsimmons scattered the Braves' seven hits in the opener and won, 4 to 1. Joe Genewich let his old Boston ccmrades down with three hits in the nightcap and the Giants copped, hands down, 11 to 0. Bowing to the Cincinnati Reds, 7 to 2, in the opening game of the series, the Cardinals lost their third straight game but kept intact their two and a half game lead over the second place Cubs who gracetullw dropped one to the Pittsbyrgh Pi- rates, 7 to 5. The Reds pounded Flint Rhem and Sylvester Johnson for 11 hits and seven runs before Harold Haid stopped the slaughter in the eighth |, inning. Kenneth Ash, rccruit pitch- er, held the leaders to seven hits and was aided by three double-plays that wiped out Cardinal rallies before they were well under way. double killings gave the Reds 174 for the season, tying the National league record set by the Cubs two years ago and within eight of the major league record held by the ‘Washington Senators. Eight pitchers were on display as the Pirates turned back the Cubs and only Burleigh Grimes and Char- Me Root were effective, Grimes hanging up his 23rd victory of the lear at last. The Pirates bunched their hits for all their runs in the fourth and fifth innings. Brooklyn and Philadelphia divided & double header. The Phils took the opener, 11 to 6, with the aid of ‘Charlie Klein’s home run and three singles. William Watson Clark pitched the Robins to victory in the closing engagement, 7 to 2. Two leaders idle, the American league program was featured by the Chicago White 8ox triumph over Detroit, 6 to 4, their ninth victory in their last 10 games. Urban Faber allowed only one earned run—Harry ;Heilmann's homer in the eighth— | but four Sox errors helped ‘Tigers to their other three talli ‘Washington ended its home season the Just as it opened it—by losing to|Grimm. 1b the Boston Red Sox this time 5 to| 2. The victory gave the Red Sox the season’s series between the clubs, 13 to 9. Blaeholder was given excellent support in the critical moments and Bt. Louis defeated Cleveland, 5 to 3, it being the Indians’ eighth straight Teverse. American League BOSTON AB R Rothrock, b 5 0 Todr, 1 ..

Colliers ... Burritt Jrs. Phantoms Legion . Y. M. C. A, Laurels A scven run bombardment in the first inning by the Colliers before Schmarr, Legion hurler, could get warmed up sufficiently, lost a game for the Legion crew last night at Wailnut Hill park and clinched the championship of the Junior City league for the winners. The outburst netted seven runs for the Colliers before they were retired. The final score was 9 to 7 and the game was called by Umpire Mangan in the last half of the sixth inning on account of darkness. After the opening session Schmarr put up a brilliant exhibition and re- tired the next 12 men to face him without a hit. A misplay and a fluke home run by the winners in the sixth inning won the game for the Colliers. These were the only two men to get on base after the first inning. Golas pitched a steady game for the Colliers but he received wretch- ed support from his team mates. Had he not tightened up in the pinches after his mates' misplays had gotten him into difficult posi- tions, the score might have been re- versed, ) The first six men to face Schmarr in the opening inning hit safely. The seven runs scored in this session were too nruch of a handicap and although the Legion tried hard, it could not overcome it. The losers counted one run in the second in- ning, three in the third, a pair in the fifth and a single marker in the sixth. The Legion had the winning markers on the basepaths on num- erous occasicns but it lacked the punch to push them over. Cabay with & home run and a single in three trips to the plate, led the winners' onslaught. Schmarr and Baylock did some heavy stick- ing for the Legion. Florkowski, al- though he mushed up two ground- ers, played a sparkling fielding game. The summary: COLLIERS AB I e bt Jason, It .

While his condition is said to be serious it is not critical. Green- shelds underwent an operation at his home in Cleveland about 10 days ago and joined the squad here last Saturday. (P | The St. Louis Cards snapped out| of whatever slump may have struck them when they were dislodged from first place by the New York Giants for a few days and again| are heading onward to a National | league pennant with full steam | ahead. And two reasons are thesc: One—Jim Bottomley. Two—Ernest Orsatti It would be a rather difficult task to evade giving Bottomley as much credit as Irankie Frisch, Chick | Hafey, old Alex or any other mem- ber of the team for the gallant fight the Cards have made this se sen. Dottomley has been a po- tent factor in every fashion. | His batting average, the figures show, gives him a place among tho( first 10 regulars, but the averages don’t tell half the story of his punch | for the Cards this season.” It is in | the runs-batted-in column that you | see his real value. | Of course, he hasn’t been merely | a statue at first either. | The other young man who fs playing a very important role in the drive for the pennant is Ernest Orsatti, the outficlder recalled from the American Association. Orsatti | was with the Cards for a brief spell | last summer, andat the time gave indications of proving major league | material. Orsatti came to bascball from the movies, He once doubled for Bus- ter Keaton. But the Hollywood sandlots called him and from there he went to the Texas league where he was found by the Cards. Orsatti enjoyed a most successful scason in the association this year, leaving the nice batting mark of 2351 behind him when the Cards called him in. He was inserted in the lineup as soon as he rejoined the Cards and when Bottomley was out for a few days with the flu he drew the first | base assignment from Manager Me- | Kechnie. He filled it nobly. And he supplied the batting punch Bot- tomley had been supplying. Now, both Bottomley and Orsatti are in there every day and the pen- nant bee is buzzing in Cardtown, FINDING COURSE NOT 700 TOUGH Veterans Don't Agree With| Youngsters on Brag Burn —— Newton, Mass., Sept. 11 (P)—Start of the second and decisive qualify- ing round of the national amateur £olf championship today found some of the youngsters declaring that | Brae Burn is not so tough as it looks. Not all the veterans would | agree. With the exception of George Von Elm all the former champions {in the hunt for encores on the title found that the course had not been softened to any considerable extent. Von Elm with a 73~was only one stroke over par for the first 18 holes but the other eight who have occu- pied a seat on the amateur golf throne ranged from the 77 of Bobby Jones, the champion, through 80 to the 91 scored by 8. Davidson Her- ron. Francis Ouimet, Jess Sweetser and Max Marston had 75, Jesse Guil- ford, Chick Evans and William C. Fownes, Jr., scored $0. George Voight, who has his good and bad days in golf and is very good when he is good, started the second half of the 36 hole qualifying |test tied with Harrison R. “Jimmy” | Johnston for the lead at 71. These sterling golfers were the only ones in the ficld of 143 to shade par. C. wateur cham pion res were yesterday, the seeded list of ranking stars will have to be revised. The United States Golf association prepared an annual list of 10 stars including the names of Jones, Von Ith, Ouimet, Sweetser, Frank Dolp, ans, Johnston, Watts Gunn, Dr, O. I. Willing and Roland McKenzie, the first eight to be sceded if they survived the draw. To replace any of the first stalwarts falling by the wayside a supplementary ranking of ten was wunnounced with George Dawson, Guilford, Eddie Held, Eu- gene Homans, Marston, Maurice MecCarthy, Jr., Roy Moe, Bon Stein, George Voight and Frederick J. Wright, Jr. Dolp started his second round with a score of 78, Watts Gunn had 0. Dr. Willing had used 83 strokes and Mac zie was almost certainly eliminated as a result of §8. In the cond ten George Dawson was around in 75, Wright in 74, Ho- mans in 77, Held and Stein In 78 and McCarthy in 79, T. P. Perkins, the British ama- teur champion, played good golf on his first attempt to score 76 and in- dicated that he would bear watch- ing. The British Walker Cup play- ers played much better in their first official chance at Brae Burn than they did at Chicago and sevefhl have an excecllent chance to match their skill at match play against Americans, The concluding holes of qualifying tests over the medal play route to- day will pave the way for match play for 32 survivors, two cighteen heles tomorrow reducing the field to eight to play Thursday, leading to the semi finals ¥Friday and final Saturday, the play for the last three days of the week to be over the 36 — AS THE FIRST OF Tne MDNTH APPROACHES You BEGIN To WORRY.
