Cubs Down Boston And Stretch Long Lead In National (By the Associated Press) Unless something speedily turns up to stop them, the Chicago Cubs soon will be making a runaway of the National league race just as Connie Mack's Philadelphia Ath i letics have in the American. The Cubs stretched their advant age to four and one-half games yesterday by trouncing Boston, 4-0 while Pittsburgh lost to the Phillies, 13-5. The Cubs' victory, their ninth in a row, was due almost entirely to excellent pitching by Sheriff Blake. Six Pirate pitchers failed to halt the slugging Phils at Pittsburgh. It took three pitclu s to halt the Phils in the third inning when they scored seven runs. Chuck Klein hit his 32nd home of the year. Big Fred Fitsimmons further demonstrated that he is no “cousin” to Red Batsmen, the burly New York Giant right-hander, shutting out Cincinnati 3 to 0. It was the fourth successive shut-out Fitzsim mons has scored against the Reds. The St. Louis Cardinals ended a three-game losing streak by beating Brooklyn, 10 o 9 in 11 innings. Sev en pitchers trotted the the mound during the day and gave no fewer than 33 hits. The American league situation re mained unchanged as the Yankees and Athletics both won. The A's traveled ten innings to down Detroit, 5 to 4. George Uhle gave only four hits up to the ninth but the A’s tallied three times in this session to tie the score and won out on Simmons’ single in the tenth. Fifteen solid drives gave Cleve land an easy 11-4 triumph over the Boston Red Sox, Morgan getting two singles, a double and a triple. A three-run rally in the eighth gave the Washington Senators a see-saw battle with ot. Louis, 11 to 9. Herb Pennock pitched the Yanks to a 7-3 vie ->ry over the Chicago White Sox.

Sp@irft§ Clh&te — With — i Hal Eustace The Valley is being mentioned as possible site for a winter baseball league to be made up of players from the majors and the fast mi nors. Big league scouts are now rustling about to find a suitable location for a winter loop. Arizona and California are being mentioned most prominently in the discussions. In fact, Phoenix, Nogales, Mesa and Tucson are said ready to enter clubs. J. E. Bell, secretary of the San Benito chamber of commerce, nas written the scouts, pointing out the advantages the Valley would offer for a winter league. “The Eower Rio Grande Valley, with about the same climate as Miami, Ela., offers you an ideal location ior a winter league, wuiun a radius of about 35 miles of San Benito are about 20 modern lit tle cities ranging in population trom 2000 to 25,000,” he wrote. “The total popu' .lion of this sec tion is about 200,000 persons, a big majority of whom are baseball fans. Out towns are r.Il connected with concrete highways with an hourly auto bus schedule. 3an Benito and the other towns of similar and even smaller size have excellent bateball parks. Our hotels are strictly mod ern. We have jver 300 sunshiny '.ys each year. The average rainfall is 26 inches per year, falling for the most part for April until Septem ber * * *” The scouts say that winter base ball is used by the majors to keep their men in trim and furnish grounds for lunting out new Ivory. Be that as it may, winter base ball is just as commercial as the ordinary hot-weather article. The winter league rill be placed where it will make the most money. Twenty-three athletes turned out to the first football call sounded in the Valley at Raymondville Monday. The lads were very chipper and anxious to get dotvn to brass tacks. Beatty McCharen, a member of the Raymondville squad for the last three years, was elected to head the Willacy county eleven. Practice is expected to get der way w-ithin a week. It’s just a matter of a little more time now until the Valley will have gone completely “foot ball'’—a dr d .isease akin in symptoms to yo-yo but much more violent in effect. Suffering from this malady, a victim will stand in a downpour of chilled rain and wonder how 1 e got wet after the game is over. Ordinar- i ly sweet tempered folk will al most burst their lungs shouting “Break those so-and-so’s necks!” Nothing is too good for a winner —nothing too rotten for a loser. — The Mercedes I ions are continu ing to assert themself in t' semi pro free-for-all. They whipr'd the Donna Legionnaires Sunday to the tune of 12-7. Pumarejo hurled good ball, allowing only se.en hits. He struck out 14 Donnaites. These two teams will get together fo • a re turn game some time next month. Pumarejo, former Valley leagu er, has struck out 224 len in 17 record book. The Mercedes team has played 19 contests, losing only five. They will take on either Mission or La Feria at Mercedes suna?” the Lions are looking for additional games. Managers wishing a irl should get in touch with Pumarejo at ’phone 169, Mercedes. r " Plans for a handicap match tour nament at the local Country club have been formulated, thirty-two golfers will tee off in competion Sunday. Play will continue for five weeks as the eliminations dwindle down to 16, eight, four, two and the winner.. Each flight, to be composed of 18 holes, must be played within a week. Interest in golf has been heightened here. The outstanding achievement of the recent team play, as the golfing committee views it. was the establishment of official handicaps by some 32 golfers. Now the club is set for membership tour neys, Lower Gulf Coac tourneys or what have you. Troops B and the Machine uun troop are scheduled to clash to day in the Fort Brown baseball series. There are four teams en tered In the Fort Loop. They are ; A, B, Machine Gun, and Head quarters. — Carranza Memorial Prepared By Army WASHINGTON, July 31.—(/P)— The signal corps of the army has prepared a memorial album com memorating the good will flight of the late Mexican aviator, Capt. Emilio Carranza, which will be transmitted to the Mexican govern ment. The album, bound in vellum, is a complete pictoral history of the courageous flyer's exploits from the time of his arrival in the United States until the delivery of his body in Mexico City after the accident which took his life. In transmitting the album to Secretary Stimson for delivery in Mexico. Secretary Good wrote as follows: “This intrepid officer, in his brief visit to the United States, won the respect and admiration of soldier and civilian alike. Out of the sin cere affection in which he was held and the genuine grief aroused in all hearts at the untimely death of their brother officer, grew the in spiration for this simple token of the regard in which the memory ef Captain Carranza Is held in the United States.” Spuds Resume Lead As Bisons Drop Out In Steer Skirmishr (By The Associated Press) ^ The Houston Buffs made an unimpressive showing upon their initial appearance in the northland since the bolstering process took place. Where they had been downing all opposition to climb into a tie for the pinnacle while playing at home, the Bisons folded up like a camp chair in their first skirmish at Dallas. Three of their moundsmen, including Flint Rhem and Joe Brown, took a* thorough licking as the Steers open ed the series with a 12 to 2 victory. The same malady that struck the Buffs also laid the three other Southern clubs low. As a result, the first division today looked much 'ike it did a few days before the season was split, with the notable exception that the Steers were in seventh place instead of first. Three northern outfits had climbed back into the select circle. Wichita Falls took advantage of the Bisons’ rout at Dallas to shove back into undisputed possession of the lead, subduing San Antonio. 7 to 2. The tribe, incidentally, is in the midst of another great losing streak. Milt Steengrafe was in fine fettle, keeping seven hits tvell strung out. while Neal Baker was pounded hard. The Panthers finished strong to nose out Waco, 3 to 2, in their open er and entrenched thynselves in third place. Although they started bravely enough, piling into Collard for four runs in the first frame, the Ex porters skidded further along and came up on the short end of an 8 to 6 count in the inaugural at Shreve-’ port, in which both sides used three pitchers.
