Phiv cime was just as good as the one gn Wednesday was bad. In the fan "bosom it renewed dreams of a Ghagapionship, According to the in our end of prews stand Jess Barnes let the Cardine ls down with a tone wallop, but when Schultz broke his bat on a’ ball ‘mm the ninth that Heinie Zim failed to re, (he official scorer gave that aloo, making the total two. His Gheory is'that any time a batter can Jit @ ball hard enough to break the bat jhe és entitled to a hit, regardless of uny sfubsequent and contributory act on the part of Heinie Zim. Unfortunately, or fortunately, according to the way you look at it, his decision counts. Any- way, those words of explanation sounded big enough for him to subdue protests from the other eud of the stand. Conceding two hits, then, Barnes Yeung up a performance that will stand Jot of target practice before it is uled down. ‘Up until Schulte's dis- ited single in the ninth frst two Cardinals had heen permitted to get on base.

Don't foryet that those Cubs are also beginning to'gise. After turing thewefes from’ the Giant game ice ef the Reds, there were the ¥ wo watch In Cleveland With a feeling almost akin to despair Yank rooters followed their team inning. by inning to the defeat which drops thom a little fur- ther from first place. In the first inning one Jimmy Alli- son, correspondent for a Cincinnati paper, burst into the press box in a | Profuse perspiration, “Fellows,” he announced, “you may now be sure that Cincinnati's gone crazy over baseball. They've ordered me, an ordinary civilian correspond- ent, to the minutest details of the Giant- ikl game by telegraph. T have been tefling them for years that I was a baseball man, and now they've called my bluff. Help me give ‘em the detaiis ax to how the runs are made— that’s all they want." Easy enough,” some one advised him, “Just say that George Burns hit a home run in the eighth Innin You'll have nothing to write about 6! souls at all.” And thus James Allison estapel.
