The crowd was up to the average, but the programme wasn't the most attractive that might have been arranged, The flelds, small enough in $heir original form, were reduged by scratches and there was little opportunity for “the | boys” to get into real action.” Only three went to the post in the steeple- chase, four were scratohed from & field of eight in the Bellerose selling stakes and three out of eight declined the issue im the Arverne Handicap.

Fan, Don’t Despair Because Yankees Are Now Second in American League ——- Team Can Be Counted On to Turn Tables on White Sox To-Day. By Charles Somerville. ORSE than a green-apple dis- cord in the midriff was the pain experienced yesterday as we heard that the White Sox had suddenly left fall their crutches, took up their wallopers and reduced Jack Quinn, Mogridge, Rip Collins and McGraw to @ horrible huddle of help- lessness, slamming the while the Yanks back into second place, for the Indians were cleaning up the wigwam with the Senators. But keep the door slammed in the map of old Bob Despair yet awhile. For remember the last time the Sox were in town, how they started the series by scattering the Yanks all over the Bluff for sixteen runs? And then how the Yanks wheeled on ‘em and stood the Breezetown Boys with their white sox uppermost for the remain- der of the series. Well, then, move up and give history a chance to repeat iteelt. ‘The raging Robina sent the receding Reds reeling further back yesterday and added another notch of certainty to the prospect of the National flag flaunting from the top iimb of a rub- ber plant. But for US—on the Bluff—not so good, though the Giants’ title to end- ing second is happily wedded to the future, it may with considerable con- fidence be prognosticated. I mean I guess it's a cinch they'll cop that near the top. But We only fought @ draw with the Pirates yesterday., The first rumble went to them. Earl Hamilton offici- ated at the obsequies. Earl proved some fish. Only Burns, Frisch, Kelly with safety, and they for only one apiece, The Smokes larruped Jesse Barns for only five in eight innings and mauled “Shufflin’ Phil” for three more in the ninth, The score of $ to 1 think about, Two home runs, for fm stance, The first arose from the wat wand of Lee King, first man to step up in the second, This was added to © tally secured in the first on a walk by Burns and single by Kell. Kelly started the making of another by doubling tn the seventh. King fied to Southworth and Doyle to McKeehnie, but Earl Smith smeared a single into centre, and Kell kicked in with the third eclair, Nehf sent Smitty to third with anothes centre crash, but Burns's _/) fly to left out off further scoring, Kell’s double tn this inning was the nearest near homer you ever saw. banged Against the ieft fleld bleacher fence a scant foot below the top rail.

It was done be a gent of the of Southworth, It was a mere single and pretty much of a puling single at that, Tt came in the first inning. But it meant nothing on the scoreboard. I should say not! Only two geeks got to first. Southworth passed away try- ing to steal second. Bigbee got to first on a walk. He never advanced further on the map, for Cutshaw, Nicholson and Kelly were held to yflops handled by Burns, King and lly. In the second Nehf fanned Nicholson, Whitted and Grimm in a row.
