The Pirate charge remains un- . checked, even with the Giants op- posing it. John J. McGraw was forc- ed to chafe in the New York dugout _at Forbes field yesterday as the .Pirates gave his charges a ore-run defeat in the ninth after Burleigh Grimes had blown a fine early lead. The Buccaneers drove four hard £mashes back at the venerable Jack Scott to score two runs after two were out and so to win by 7 to 6. With the Cardinals held motion- apes 1088 by rain. the Pirates thus were - -~ £ [ + - - » 4 H * * » » i - Py N £ kS ¥ § i * F ? -1 i 3 ; 2 El % 1 . 3 3 i .

Donie Bush's men are now in one of those ' famous “virtual ties” with the Red . Birds, but hold a percentage edge throuph the noted process of having *lost fewer games. The Pirates got extremely even vith Carl (No-Hit) Hubbel, who so svembarrassed them at the Polo *Grounds a month ago when he shut !'them out without a safety. Eight ., hits and four runs sent Master Hub- - bell showerward at the end of three *‘innings, and Burleigh Grimes seem- ‘ed to have a breeze for his 1ith .straight. After a sixth-inning blow. up netting the Giants five runs, ‘*however, he was in danger of ac- quiring his first defeat until Grant- «~ham's single and Ott's fumble en- «rabled Traynor to score from first ‘*base with the winning run in the Tominth, The Cubs defeated the Phillies ++7 to 3 in Chicago as the Robins and the Reds lay idle in a Cincinnati ‘rain storm. Malone fanned 12 »» Phils, running his mark to 58, the 1 best in his league. * Action on the American' lcague **front further improved the standing .of the Athletics who exacted mcre ««toll from the hapless White Sox as s:the Browns turned on the Yankees Ttafter three straight rebuffs. This _,combination of events increased the +lead of the Mackmen to eight games, +a tidy nest egg to hold against the ‘orthcoming series of battles against he champions. Connie Mack employed -+ Wahlberg to clinch his third ‘*triumph cver the White Sox. Rube ':xook the game in his stride and won by 7 to 3, aided by Al Simmons' »¢14th home run. The defeat of the Yankees may .y De attributed in part to Miller Hug- lgins’ daring 1n exposing Myle »Thomas {0 enemy fire in a start:ng ‘‘role. Myles escaped with his life !*for two rounds, but the Browns cor- !incred him in the third when seven whits netted eight runs and the ball «sgame which eventually was won by ‘9 to 4. ‘ !v Freq Heimach rushed to Thomas' \rescue just in time to see George «Blaeholder, the St. Louis pitcher, ‘\cap the assault with a home run siwith two Brownics aboard.

From many sources comes infor- mation that the majority of major league ball players will be asked to accept 25 per cent reductions. The recent one-day strike of the Syracuse baseball club of the New York-Pennsylvania Feague over nno-payment of salaries brings up the question: What would happen it the major league players declared a strike? Many prominent plavers in the big leagues have expressed them- selvea as in favor of retiring from haseball rather than accept a 2§ per cent cut. Reldom does the individual player ever win out in a salary argument with the magnate, who has more than one way of getting his revenge. The major league career of many a player has been shortened because of his salary demands, just or un- just. Magnates have gambied with their pennant chances, and even lost, in their desire to punish play- ers guilty of holding out. However, a general strike of base- ball players all over the major leagues might be something the magnates might not be able to cope with, Even Commissioner Tandis might not be equal to the occasion it a large group of major league players refused to accept a reduc- tion in salary. 1t is the opinion of several players that Rabe Ruth holds the key to the &ituation. If the Rabe recovers ani has a good scason, this group econ- tends that Col. Ruppert i3 not likely to ask him to take a cut in salary and the rest of the magnates will follow suit Ruth's three-year contract calling for $70,000 a season terminates at the close ef the current season. and Futh hag said that he will ask the Yankees for $100.000 if thev offer Iim only a one-year contract. Ruth. Gehrig and Hornshy are hasehall's three highest-priced star hrig draws $25,000 and Hornsby ia said, $40,000 from the Cubs. Some of (he other high priced players are Dazzy Vance $20,000, ¥:d Roush $18,000, Rurleigh Grimes 000, Waite Hoyt $17.500, Mickey Cochrane $15,000 and Herh Pennock $15.000 Of this gronn all except Cochrane, Grimes and Hoyt are liable to have their ies cut if the magnates tecide 1o cut down expenses The on the second it nayere qivi- sion clube who are however.

Which is as it should be, but how often do they speak of Wally Schang, 39- year-old-youngster of the Bt. Louis Browns, in the same breath with | these other luminaries of the mask | and windpad. Very seldom, but why? That's it—why? i If ever there was a catcher who| can parade his record in even the| most select company, it is this vet- eran of 16 bruising major league summers. 4 When he 22, back in 1913, he caught four world series ball games. That was his first year in the big leagues as a member of the Phila- delphia Athletics. For a manager to intrust the catching of such impor- tant games to a first-year youngster proves that Wally was a star from the.very start. And he never wavered from that high standard he set in his first world series. After five years with the Macks he was traded to the Bos- ton Red Sox where he played a big part in bringing the world cham- pionship to that club. In 1921 he was grabbed by the New York Yankees. With the Yanks he participated in the 1921, 1922 and 1923 world meries and fulfilled his role of first-string catcher of a championship club in great style. Then somebody told Miller Hug- gins there was something wrong with Wally's eyesight. Anyhow Hug let him slip to the Browns where he Pas made the Miller regret the deal ever since. 8chang has averaged close to 100 games a year since 1913. His lifetime batting average totals 0 which compares very favorably with the marks set by some of the other im- mortals of the mask. He is still a| mighty durable piece of baseball | machinery and Dan Howley would | be panic-stricken without him. Just remember this the next time some- body spouts off about the greatest catcher of all time. DERBY NEARING END Less Than 20 Minutes Separates Ga- Salo in C. C.
