A triple by Jake Daubert and a single by Plnelli. in the tenth inning, tallied the decid ing run of the game with Boston at Redland field Monday afternoon, which gained the Reds a win by the 6core of 8 to 7. Things looked bad for Cinci when Boston had them 5 to 0 in the fourth, but Moran's men jumped on the - offerings of Watson in the Red hall ot the fourth and got their first tally, ! and from then on the Reds crept up on Boston until the score was tied in the eighth inning. Three home runs featured the heavy hiting of the game. Sammy Bohne smashed a long drive over the left field wall for Cinci in the seven' h inn ing. The ball hit the 6treet, bounced up against a brick building on the other side and rebounded into the ball park, much to the surprise of Nixon, left fielder for the Braves. Both clubs slugged the ball extra hard in all 10 innings, but Cincinnati had the better by one hit. Reds Come Back With the score 5 to 0 against them, the Reds took a brace and refused to give up. Watson had been almost in vincible up to this time, but the Reds got him in the fouth for a run on hits by Harper. Caveney and Wingo. One more run was tallied up for Cinci in : the fifth on hits by Pinelli and' Cav eney, but they still were four tallies to the bad. In the seventh they jump ed on Watson so severely that he was soon called from the mound for Lan sing to take his place. After Daubert-had filed out In the iQ : seventh, Duncan doubled and Harper tripled. Bohne hit over the left wall for a homer and the Braves had but one run as a lead. The Braves added one more tally to their lead in the eighth, but Cinci tied things in their half of the same inning with two runs on an error, a triple and three bases on balls, the tying run being forced in. Keck Finishes. At this time Moran called on Keck to finish the game and the Cactus finished the two remaining innings in ereat style. Neither team scored in the ninth inning, but Cinci ended things in the tenth "when Daubert opened with a triple to center. Mc Quillan. in desperation, passed both Duncan and Harper, thinking that he could get a double play to end the round, but Babe Pinelli came through with a clean single, and the whole affair ended as Daubert came pound ine over. The Braves were to play their final game of the series Tuesday, and they then vacate to make way for the New York Giants, who open a four game series on Wednesday. The Giants will nlav th remainder of the week in Cincinnati, and will furnish the big attraction at Redland field Sunday af ternoon. The score: Cincinnati. AB R IB PO A 0 Burns, cf. .

St. Louis missed going into first place by losing to New York on the Cardinal diamond Monday, py tne close score of 3 to 2. New York soored twice In the first and once more in the third and had enough runs to win, as St. Louis scored but two runs in the fifth inning and the tallying was over. As it now stands. New York has one and one-half games to the good in the league standing and if they lose to the Cardinals Tuesday, they will leave St. Louis with a lead of half a game. Inability on McCurdy's part to hold Pitcher Doak in the fourth inning, caused Manager Rickey to put Clem ons in his place for the remainder of the game. The score: New York.

Usually failure to follow some sim ple rule of baseball produces the worst kind of bonehead plays on the ball field. Ninety-nine times out of a hundred, the failure to properly complete the play, is not due to lack of knowledge, but rather to sheer carelessness on the part of some player. Failure to touch a base Is the easi est way to create a bonehead play. As long as baseball is played players will continue to fail to touch the bases. If such failure does not prove cost ly, the omission is soon forgotten. Otherwise, the careless player goes down in history in the list of "bone heads." In all probability the most costly failure to touch abase is charged to Fred Merkle. Chicago was playing New York. It was the ninth inning, the score was tied, two were out, and runners were on first and third. Merkle, then play ing first base for the Giants, was the runner on first. The batsman hit cleanly to the out field, and the runner jogged across the plate with what was apparently the deciding run. Merkle, on first, ran within a few feet of second, and seein the runner had crossed the plate. dashed for the club house. Johnny Evers, playing second for Chicago, called for the ball, which was thrown to him by Hoffman. In the failure to touch a base is charged to the field. Evers touched second and Merkle was called out. His failure to touch the bag, eimply made a force play at second. This retired the side and the rules state no runs can score on a play in wnich the third out is a force play. That erased the run that apparently had won the game. The game was never finished, as it ended in a tie score. New York and Chicago tied in the pennant race that year, it was necessary to play an extra game to decide tiie champion ship. Chicago won the game and the right to play in the series. Merkle's "bone" was the costliest ever made. Had he touched recond the Giants would have won the pen nant. The owners would have realized a small fortune and each player a fancy figure. . The bones of a human beinsr will bear three times as much pressure as oak, and nearly as much as wrought iron, without being crushed.

Once more, the veteran "Ty" Cobb hit for an average of 1,000. The Tiger manager was up five times and deliv- ered for his club in each case. He got a double and a home run out of the 'five hits and stole a base on the side. Detroit won the game, 16 to 7 The Tigers are a dangerous bunch and they are still hitting a fast pace. Those Chicago White Sox made the New York Yankees duck under again in their game at New York Monday. This time it was 8' to 7 in 11 innings, but it was a victory just the same Fans can't help but feel for the fight ing Sox inasmuch as it has been tough stepping since the scandal in -1919 Comiskey s bunch is fighting every Inch of the way and there is no hitch in their deserving third place In the standing. New York used 18 players in the game and Chicago used 15 in coming out on top. John McGraw's Giants advanced their lead over St. Louis to one and a half games by virtue of their win over the Cardinals Monday, 3 to 2. But those Cardinals are due to get to the top rung and they absolutely are determined to get there. Joe Gleason, pitcher for the Colum bus - American association team, is thought to have deserted the team. He did not arrive to board the train for St. Paul when the team left. It was said that he had intimated that he was through with Columbus and that he did not intend to pitch any more for them. Gleason was obtained by Col umbus from the Washigton American league team.

When you do that you are pitying a multitude. For Chiago, in ratio to nnnnlatinn rtrnVioViW Vnnws mnrp cnort enthusiasts than any city in the world. It is a city wild about good baseball, .... . .. ... ' in America over boxing and ardent in Its fondness over race horses. And yet to witness any of the three major professional sports t must jour ney away from home to distant lands. It has baseball but such baseball: It knows only the eccentic Cubs and the broken down White Sox. If the town goes to its ball parks It rarely sees anything other than a slaughter of the defenders of its baseball honor. Once Chicago had two great teams, but, like racing and pugilism, they were taken away. , Once upon a time Chicago was the fight mecca oJ-America. It brought to the fore as many, if not more, great ringmen than any city in the world Through years and yet more years it was the 6tage for eome of the greatest and most spectacular ring duels in American history. Ruined Game Then control of the game was secur ed by men whose love of money and whose dishonesty overruled their love of the game. They brought the sport into disrepute and there was nothing left fo the law makers of Illinois to do but to kill it. Ever since then when Chicagoan3 have wanted to see fistic melees they have been forced to travel into Indi ana, Michigan, Wisconsin, or to re mote parts of their own state, where local laws permitted limited, no-decision bouts. Inasmuch as railroad and travelling expenses to all those places ran into big -money, it meant that the fans among the non-rich class have been unable to see any ring milling. It's the same with horse racing. In the bygone years Chicago was the real center of the horse world. It housed magnificent tracks. The greatest thor oughbreds in America galloped around its courses. Less than 20 years ago, during the running of the American Derby, Chicago set an American race track attendance mark when more than 100,000 persons jammed their way into the park. But the race game, like the fight game, fell into evil hands. Scandal became rampant Those who loved the Suits Dry Cleaned and Pressed $1.25 Suits Pressed, 50c We Try to Please JOE MILLER, Prop. 617 Main St. Second Floor I k Cven more to the Point- m. than anything we could say, is this expression from Mr AkNDERBILT Jr. - ' typical of the liking of the younq man of affairs for TheNew i Improved 3 y EV sport for its own sake tried to save the situation. But too late. The tracks were closed and cut up into building lots; the horses went away, never to return; the game was legislated out of existence. Through the years since then re peated efforts have been made to re store both sports to the statute books of Illinois, but without success. Not so long ago it looked for a while as if a new boxing bill was sure to be adopted. But when the final test came men who were in legislative power and who hadn't forgotten the sordid depths ' ""1VU. ,ru, Yote afaImst the blU m sufficient num.- tier t uilr inn tvi ci l- n - They are trying to revive racing in Illinois under conditions much the same as were used when the sport was restored in New York. That's the oral wagering system, which in the! eyes of the law isn't any form of wagering at all. But it's doubtful if success will crown their efforts. TracKs Torn Up At a time when they brought racing back to New York, the tracks of the olden days still existed. No million dollar outlay was necessary. But in Chicago every track of the halcyon race days either has been cut up into lots or has been so ravaged by the years that complete remodeling and re building is necessary. If it was certain the game could be brought back, a thousand different men gladly would finance the proposition. Put inasmuch as it's about 10 to 1 against the venture being a success, no man or group of men wants to risk anywhere from $250,000 to $750,000 in the proposition. Chicago therefore seems doomed to continue as the- greatest sporting city in America yet denied completely sight of the two major professional ' sports. And It seems as if it'll be years oerore its Dau ciuds are reDuilt to a point where once again Chicago can point with pride to either. (Copyrlgfir 1921 By Kin Feature Syndicate. Iae.
