Cubs March Toward
Final Conquest In
Eastern Circuit Cities
(By Associated Press>
6ped by the players of a million Chicago fans, the Cubs are on the
toarch today seeking a final conquest of the east.
In two swings along the Atlantic seaboard this year, the Bruins
have won 19 games and lost nine; a continuation of that pace through
the 16 engagements of the impending invasion would send the young
men oi josepn Mcuartny oacic to
the West late this month all but
assured of their pennant.
Despite a 5 to 4 defeat by Brook
lyn before a record mid-week crowd
of 55.000 at Wrigley Field yesterday,
the Bruins are eastward bound with
their lead of seven and one-half
games intact. The Pirates also lost
—to the Giants by 5 to 3—and must
face the Clan McGraw in another
game today.
Bill Walker performed upon the
mound against the Pirates and
pulled out of a mean hole in the
ninth to preserve the slender lead
Giant hits and Pittsburgh errors
had given him in the eighth. With
the bases filled by three singles and
two men out, h- forced Pie Trayn^f
to roll weakly to the infield for the
final out.
Jess Petty went the route for the
Buccaneers, and permitted the
Giants to bunch their hits where
they would do the greatest damage.
Rain interfered with the Card
inal-Brave game at St. Louis and
the Phils and the Reds were not
scheduled.
While Chicago was cheering its
Cubs. American League contenders
were in effect, marking time. The
Athletics bowed to the Browns by
8 to 3 in the first game of a double
header, but came back strong to win
the second by 11 to 3 behind Eddie
Rommel’s knuckle ball. The Sen
ators trimmed the Yanks by 13 to
0 in the opener, but Freddy Heim
ach pitched a three-hit shut-out in
the nightcap, winning for the cham
pions by 8 to 0.
Cleveland nosed out Detroit by 6
to 5. and entered into a tie with the
Browms for third place. The Sox.
White and Red. were not scheduled.
Players Who ‘Bean’
Batsmen Criticized
CHICAGO. Aug. 7.—Ameri
can Association pitchers who per
sist in aiming fast balls at the
heads of batsmen, will be severely
disciplined from now on.
President Thomas J. Hickey has
sent notice to umpires and man
agers that the practice of ' dusting
off” batsmen, which has become so
common as to cause fist fights on
the fields, must stop immediately.
Alleged attempts to bean batsmen
were said to have been responsible
for two serious fights between Min
neapolis and St. Paul players re
cently.
Day Laborer Leads
Public Links Final
FOREST PARK. St. Lois, Aug. 7.
—OP)—A little Italian day laborer
from Brooklyn. Frank Fabrizio. was

final 18-hole drive for medalist
honors opened at the eighth na
tional public links golf champion
ship at Forest Park today.
Coming to the tournament as a
rank outsider known only in his im
mediate neighborhood. Fabrizio
gained his advantage yesterday bi
thumping old man par and a rec
ord smashing field of municipal
eces. He breezed around the ram
soaked course in exactly 70 strokes
two under par. and the closest ri
val he had among his 140 opponents
was Connell Kersey, a 17-year-oid
youth from Louisville, Ky.
Golfers scores yesterday for thi

The Brownsville Tigers, one of
the oldest amateur baseball nines
in the city, have reorganized after
dirbandmg earlier in the season. In
years past, the old Tigers were “the
••town” team. They always have
been a fast organization in Valley
baseball, winning better than half
of their games. Well, they're back
together and expect to get into ac
tion by Sunday.
• • •
Jose Salinas. smokebalJ hurler,
got the old Tigers together, snak
ing them oat of the ranks of vari
ous other amateur nines. The old
gang showed lots c snap and gin
ger. Radiating enthusiasm, they
appeared like a bunch of rolllch
boys getting ready to go out and
fight dear old Wahoo. There is
no doubt but that the Tigers
have a good line-up and that they
take their baseball seriously. Any
one who remembers the Ilatter
Tiger tiff. • th its accompany
ing threats of libel suits, will not
doubt the earnestness with which
baseball is played here.
• • •
The Tigers’ line-up is as follows:
Joe King. 2b; T. Cantu, If; S. Rocha,
ss; C. Garcia, 3b. C. Santiago, cf;
J. Salinas, p; R. Padron, c; Perez,
lb; and R. Trevino, rf. Subs: T.
Torres, J. Browi and W. King. Jr.
It’s the same old gang. Joe King
and Padron . ave been playing with
the 43rd Mexican cavalry’ nine. Cle
mente Garcia with the Hat Makers,
Salinas and Rocha with the Yan
kees and the others have been scat
tered out. They will held practice
sessions this wees and will be ready
for a game Sunday. Salinas, new
captain-manager, i.nnounces.
The Headquarters and B troop
undefeated nines will das-: at 2
p. m. Wednesday on the parade
grounds at Fort Brown. This
should be one of the most inter
esting games of the troop series
being played at the post. The
Headquarters aggregation will
present a strong battery in
Sehaffner and Sofko. Schaffner
is generally rerognled as Fort
Brown's best hurler. Litts will
hook and hop them over the plat

and Headquarters will have to ex- I
tend itself to get the decision.
Kurcharski will seine out Litts*

The Elks' billiard tournament
has almost outdone itself by its
own enthusiasm. According to the
schedule, each player has to meet
some 25 opponents. At first it
was easy to catch an opponent at
the club. Game after game was
clicked off. Soon it became a bit
difficult to find an opponent.
The players almost have to meet
by appointment now.

George Bell and Jack Mickle are
disporting themselves a la Willie

Do football players, as a gen
eral rule, make good material for
baseball? That's hard to say due
to the fact that there are few
means of comparing various
squads. Be that as it may. the*
are now 42 former college gria
players amo.;g the 400 players in
the major leagues. There are 22
in the American loop and 20 in
the National. The Athletics and
Braves have more football talent
on the diamond than any of the
other clubs. There axe now seven
formpr college gridmen on the
roster of the American league
leaders, while the Boston branch
of the National loop boasts as
many. One peculiarity noted Is
that most of the major horsebid
ers played In the backfield during
their college days. Only nine of
the 42 player* were linemen.

Their traps are geared up to such
an extent that they throw the clay

‘C’ FOR CUBS CHIN CLUB —MAYBE ‘CHAMPS’, TOO
,v p r
STEPHENSON . WILSON

ROOT HORNSBY • GRIMM T>l
Here are the prominent members of the Cubs’ Chin club. A strong group of chins providing a protub
erant front for a courageous team battling for the National league pen nant.
BY JAY VESSELS
CHICAGO. Aug. 7.——Those
colorful Cubs with the Grade-A
chins go down lighting and they'
come up the same way.
Factors in every pennant race I
since Joe McCarthy, the King
Chin was crowned, the Chicago out
fit has that old determination and
fighting Instinct so essential to a
club with championship aspirations.
Character analysists who empha
size the importance of a good
strong chin in the facial makeup
might use the Cubs as models.
For, it's hard to find a major
league club with better chins and
there aren’t many clubs which have]
made a more consistent and dc- j
termincd fight for leadership than j
the Chicago team.
That chin of McCarthy's is one
of the prize physiognomical pro
tuberances of baseball. It has few
equals on the diamond. And its
wearer had few equals as a fighter.
McCarthy has enough chin to
help out in Cub quarters where
there is a deficiency. He also has
enough t/~ ht to go around.
Out in front of the players’ unit
of the Cubs Chin club are Hornsby,
Grimm, wiisoi\ Root ana Steven
son.
There isn’t a chin in the lot that
can be spared if the Bruins are to
win the flag they have been bat
tling for so strenuously.
Hornsby is lining up to expecta
tions as the needed unit in a pen
nant winning combination.
Wilson, with his home run pro
pensities, is absolutely indispensa
ble to the team, as are also Riggs
Stevenson, the swatting fly-chaser;
Charley Grimm, the ace-high first
baseman, and Charley Root, the
pitching mainstay.
SECOND GUESSING-*SPORTS
Sii^r
.Vs and Cubs Played World Series
Lon*. Long Ago
If the Athletics of Philadelphia
and the Cubs of Chicago make good j
their threats to win the American
and National league championships.;
baseball history will repeat itself
after many years. The Athletics
and Cubs met in the world series
of 1910, then as now managed by
Connie Mack, winning four games to
one. The Cubs were commanded by
the late Frank Chance.
Only Eddie Collins of the present
day Athletic roster wao with the
White Elephants in 1910. and since
that time he has been West with
Chicago and returned to his first
baseball love.
Of the stars under Chance's wmg.
only one. Johnny Evers, remains in
baseball.
Connie then had Chief Bender.
Jack Coombs and Eddie Plank as
his pitching aces although Plank
did not appear in the scries. Combs
wen three games. The Cubs had
some great pitchers, too. including
Mordecai Brown, Grvoll Overall and
Ed Reulbach.
The Athletics and Cubs have
some able moundsmen. If he so
wishes Manager Mack can so jug
gle Grove, Walberg and Earnshaw
l that they can start all the games
between them. Manager Joe Mc
Carthy can counter with Bush. Root
and Malone if he feels so inclined,
and has the opportunity.
Dicgel Claims Canada for His
Own in Golf
If Walter Hagen can always win
the British open golf championship,
or Bobby Jones has the amateur
title of the United States captured
before he starts. Leo Diegel will win
Canadians opens whenever and
wherever they are held.
In capturing the current edition
of the Canadian classic for the
fourth time with a score of 274 for
72 holes, the flying Mexican pro, set
a new record of sorts for a major
competition.
Although the championship
course at Kanawaki measures lest,
than 6,400 yards from the back tees
and is short as golf courses go, it
was not so easy as the boys thought
when they started the competition.
There are plenty of trees in Canada
and many of them line the fairways
of the Kanawaki course. Some of
the greatest golfers in the United
States and Canada found the par
>■?..
•
70 for the course just a bit too
much. The course has five one
shotters and many strokes were
wasted at the short holes.
Ihe ninth is an easy hole to reach
from the tee but not easy for
birdies. The hole stretches out 240
yards from tee to green but the
green is a big one. resting in a
huge punch bowl so that even a
fair iron will roll on it. But it is a
hard green on which to putt as
witnessed by the fact that only a
few birdies were scored there dur
ing the 72 holes of play. Neither
Diegel nor .Tommy Armour, who
burned up the course to break 280,
could get down in two at the ninth.
Joe Kirkwood Uses Brassie and
Leaves Tees Behind
Joe Kirkwood, the great trick shot
expert of golf, drives from the Ice
with a brassie. He dees not carry
a driver in his bag. his equipment
consisting of a brassie, a spoon and
13 iron clubs. The Australian has
a superstition that it is bad luck to
use the same tee twice. He will
not pick up the little wooden pegs
on which the ball rests before he
starts them on their way down the
fairway and if any one else seeks
to return the tee to him he will
decline. • It's bad luck,’’ he says.

SALISBURY PLAINS. N. Y.J
Aug. 7.—vPi—It's a long stem chase
today for all but one of the 60-odd
j golfers who survived the first 36
! holes of the Long Island open
i championship and very few have
good prospects in the pursuit line.
After the first hall of the 72-hole

pro of the Lakeville country club.
Great Neck, had run up a lead of
six strokes and his nearest rival.
Gene Sarazen. appeared the only
one who had much chance of cut
, ting it down in today s two rounds.
; Smith negotiated the hard No. 4 of
the Salisbury country club course
vesterdav in 71 strokes, one under
par. then came back on the No 3
layout, consdiered a much easier
1 course, wit ha brilliant 69 to take
the lead with a total of 140 strokes.
Sarazen jumped far into the lead
in the morning round, shooting a
fine 67 over the No. 3 course, but
slipped badly in the afternoon, re
quiring 79 strokes for a 146 total.
Ernest Catropa, an unattached
