NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, JUNE 8, 1925, 'KENSINGTON TEAM BATTLES MYSTIC CREW AT HOME TOMORROW — FIRST ROUND OF PRESIDENT CUP TOURNAMENT IS FINISHED—HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL RIVALS MEET TODAY IN NEW HAVEN—PLAYERS LISTS IN CITY LEAGUE HANDED IN FAVORITES COME THROUGH ST. LOUIS BROWNS HAND ATHLETICS BAD DRUBBING Club Five Pitchers for 18 Hits and Win, 15 to 6— Yankees Turned Back by Cleveland for Second Successive Time—Tigers Rally to Defeat Senators —Giants Continue Spurt at Expense of Cardinals —Cubs Continue to Feast on Brooklyn Team. Dy _the Amociated Prems. The proceeding at Shibe Park yes- terday fell far short of being any part of an Athletic holiday, but the antics of the Browns did enable sev. cral of the bench hands among the pitchers to get a few moment in the sun. The St. Louisans clubbed Ehmke, Orwoll, Quinn, Rommell andYerkes for 18 hits to win by the neat score of 15 to 6, but as the Yankees obligingly lost, the cost to|Q the Athletics was negligible. The champions are the boys upon whim Connie Mack has his wily eye fixed —the champions and that string of cight games he must play against them later this month. Turned back by Cleveland for the second succeasive afternoon, the Yankees dropped to third place be- hind the victorious Browns. The Hugmen remained seven and one- halt games from the lead as the Brownies reduced their own deficit to six and one-half contests. Heinie Manush and Frank O'Rourke provided the greatest problem for Philadelphia pitchers yesterday, Manush with a homer and three singles and O’'Rourke with two triples and two singles. Schulte also hit for the circuit. The Indians defeated the Yankees hy the effective process of running up a big early lead and holding it 10 win by 7 to 3. Joe Sewell and Morgan raked Ed Wells for home runs in the first, when four runs were scored, and another flurry for three markers ended the reign of the wild southpaw in the fifth. Wil- lis Hudlin held the ruthless Hugmen to one blow in five innings, but gave ground toward the finish. Two kee singles in the ninth finally caused Roger Peckinpaugh to send for Jimmy Zinn. The Yankees have won but one of their five games against the Indians this season, and the suspicion grows in the east that Peckinpaugh's team was greatly under-rated at the start of the season. Washington fans saw a collapse of two pitching statfs in the same park yesterday when the Tigers rallied for nine runs in the last two innings to defeat the senators by 17 to 11. Detroit required 23 hits for its 17 runs, but the home forces scored 14 timés on only 10 safeties. The White Sox-Red Sox game at Boston was postponed on account of rain. The Giants continued their spurt at the expensd of the Cardinals, win- Ring the final game by 8 to 1 behing Carl Hubbell's fine pitching to clean up the series of three engagements, This triumph extended the Giant streak to fourteen out of sixteen and six out of seven in the wes! Travis Jackson contributed to the misery of Willie Sherdel with his eleventh homer. The defeat dropped the Cardinals to third place as the Cubs continued to feast upon the Robins, winning the third and last of the series by 11 to 2. Charlie Root pitched in as fine form as he has displayed this season, holding Brooklyn to four hits. Babe Herman ®ot three of these, while Harvey Hendrick hit a homer with one on base.” The Pirates prevented the Giants from cutting down the margin be. tween first place and fourth, win- ning again from the Braves by 6 to 2. This gave the Bucs a clean- -up of the series of two. Donald Hurst hit his tenth hom- er at Cincinnati, but his wild throw in the eleventh with a double-play in sight permitted Ford to score from second, and the Red Legs eased home in front. 7 to 6.

A victim, according to official pro- of ‘“muscular. heart trouble,” the great home run slug- ger of the New York Yankees will be out of the game for an indefinite period. The more optimistic of Ruth’s in- timates said he would be back m the Yankee lineup within a week or ten days; the more pessimistic in- clined to the belief that Ruth would not don his uniform again for a month and a half at least and pos- aibly for the rest of the Season. The great majority of expert opinion took the two extremes, divided by two and arrived at the conclusion that the “Big Bam” probably would be back in the game within three weeks. Certainly there appeared to be no basis for early reporta that Ruth's baseball career was over. Efforts to learn the Babe's exact condition were hampered by the wall of mys- tery with which his iliness has been shrouded. Would-be interviewers have been uniformly unsuccessful in their attempts to paas doormen and elevator operators at the West 8éth street apartment where Ruth and his bride of two months, Mrs. Claire Hodgson Ruth, are living. Enough has been learned, however. to ind!- cate that a brief vacation is all the slugger needa to put himself right again. Ruth himself was quoted as d- claring'he would be * good as ever” in ten days. Yankee officials. informed by the club physician that muscular heart trouble was not necessarily a aserious ailment, thought the Babe would be with them in a week or ten days. Ruth has been out of the lineup almost a week. After he had hit his tenth home run of the season last Saturday, he left the game and later went to a hospital for an X-ray to determine just how serious was the cold with which he had been suffering for some time. Announce- ment was made that one lung was congested and that he would be out of the game for a week. Mrs, Ruth said yesterday that the only serious thing about her hus- band’s iliness was the job of cou- vincing him that he must obey his doctor’s orders to take a short rest. “‘Babe needs a rest, that's all,” she said. “If he eould get up to the stadium he would be in uniform; nobody could stop him.” Ruth bas been out of the game on frequent occasions during his sensational career but this is only his second long lay-off because of iliness. 1In 1925 he was taken ill during the spring training season and was taken to New York, uncon- acious from an attack of influenza and indigeation. He did not play his first game that season until the first of June. His other absences from the lineup have been due to Injuries or suspensions meted out by his manager, Miller Huggins, or Commissioner landis when the Babe was the well-known playboy of the game. 8ince he signed his three-year contract for $70,000 a wseason 1In January 1927 he has appeared in practically every game on the Yan- kee schedule, 1OWA MAY WREGH IS OTHER TEAMS Movement Is Part of Campaign to Win Reinstatement Chicago, June 8 UM—As part of its campaign to win reinstatement into the Western Conference. the Uni- versity of Jowa today began an in- vestigation that may or may not wreck its football, basketball and track teams, E. T. Lauer, director of athletics, was here for a conference with Major John L. Griffith, athletic commissioner of the Conference, to learn whether the Conference had conclusive evidence that 12 Towa athletes were guilty of profession- alism, as rumored and neither de- nied nor affirmed in public by the commissioner, If any of the athletex are guilty, Lauer said, Towa would promptly disqualify them from further com- petition even if it did result in de- feats on the athletic field.

Joe Allison, and Edward Gordon. track aces. “All these boys have denied charges but Towa wants to go farther.”” Lauer said. “We want to show the Western Conference we are just as anxious as it is to in- vestigate the charges. 1f any player accepted money for playing at Iowa, he will be dis- qualified.” Major Griffith refused to discuss the charges, but he said he would Kive Lauer access to any reports he had.

Templeton handles Stanford's track and field affuirs. Ebright is By JAY VESSEL (Associated Press Sports Writer) New York, June 8§ (P—Three young western athletic coaches. none of them much over thirty, are adding new wrinkles to the furrow- ed brows of eastern chieftains. “Dink"” Templeton's 8tanford uni- versity track stalwarts on their way home from Philadelphia with their third successive national intercolle- glate championship met another group of western invaders heading ' east. This was a double-barreled P cific coast threat consisting of the powerful California and Washington crews, skippered by “Ky" Ebright and Al Ulbrickson, respectively. The second far west invasion of the summer was headed for Poughkeep- ste determined to trounce the east just as soundly on water as the Stanford terrors had on land.

It was Stanford’s third straight victory and its most decisive one. ‘What this year holds for the e ern crews which have lost four of the last six varsity races in the in- tercollegiate regatta on the Hudson will not be known until the carly evening of June 24. The Atlantic seaboard contingent, with Columbia its main hope, has a fighting chance, but Ebright's ex- perienced outfit has impressed most of the rowing experts as having an crew Forrest Twogood, | edge on the field. Washington, the other half of the far west's twin threat, is a danger- our outfit in any race. The anly tilme the Huskies finised worse than second at Poughkeepsie in seven Seasona was last year and then they were third. Washington was first in 1923, 1924 and 1926 and rated second in 1922, 1925 and 1927 That is Washington's record. Ebright's outfit, by winning at Poughkeepsie and sweeping through to the 1928 Olympic championanip, did more for California than all of the other Bear crews combined.
