CUBMANAGER PREDICTS WIN Chicago, July 29— (UP)—"Now that we've shaken off the Reds’ jinx, were ready to start the final drive for the National League pennant, and I don't see how it Is possible for any team to beat us to the wire," manager joe McCarty of the Chicago Cubs told the United Press today. The Cubs opened their home stay of 33 games yesterday with a double victory over the Cincinnati Reds, who had previously won five straight from Chicago .and now are only one and one-half games behind the pace setting Brooklyn Robins. The extended home stand Is re garded by experts as the test of tiie Cubs’ prospects of winning their second consecutive pennant. The Chicagoans are scheduled to spend the final month of the 1930 campaign on the road, while their most dangerous rivals — Brooklyn and New York—have the advantage of closing the season at home, and unless the Cubs can pile up a substantial lead before they take to the road on Sept. 1 they have little chance of winning the flag. "We're not worrying over that final road trip," said McCarty. "We have always been a hard club to beat at home and when Labor Day rolls around the race will be all over but the shouting. We more than broke even on the road last trip with 13 victories against 12 defeats, and you can’ beat ou* a club which wins half of its games away from home and burns up the league when playing in the home ball park. “I see that McGraw already concedes that the Giants have no chance to win this year. That leaves only Brooklyn and I think the Dog Days of August will see the end of the Robins. They missed their big chance when they failed to make any material progress during their last home stay and now that they are on the road we have a chance to grab the lead.” Four Rookies — Clarence Blair, Dan Taylor, Boh Osborn and Bud Teachout —are playing an importan* pa: t in the Cubs’ success. Blair has fitted Into the infield so capably that it is doubtful if Rogers Hornsby will be able to break into the regular lineup, even though he recovers entirely from the effects of a broken angle. Blair's batting does not compare with Hornsby's but he fields far better than Hornsby and cuts off many runs. Taylor. 1929 International League batting champion, is subbing for the

I injured Riggs Stephenson and doing It so well that Stephenson's absence lias not weakened the club. Det elopment of Osborn and Taylor has offset the loss of pitcher 'Hal Carlson. Osborn has the best average of any National League pitcher with 6 victories and two defeats. ami has earned a place as a regular starting pitcher. Teachout has done good work as a relief hurler and slijows promise of developing into a regular. Meanwhile the old Standbys— Hack Wilson, Woody English, Clyde Heck and Charley Grimm —are playing their usual stellar game and two others—Gabby Hartnett and Kill Cuyler—are playing the beat bail of their careers. Hartnett, returning to the lineup after a year’s absence, has strengthened the team in its weakest spot and is the outstanding National League catcher of the year. His hitting is a big aid in the attack and his defensive work leaves little to be desired. Cuyler is playing more sensationally than when he starred with Pittsburgh and rates with the moat valuable outfielders in the League. He has few superiors in fielding or throwing and his hitting and sensational base running makes him the “spark plug” of the club on offense.

STRIBLING IS EASY WINNER London, July 29 <U.R) — Young Stribling of Georgia loomed trp on the fistic horizon today to dispute Max Schmeling's claim to the world's heavyweight championship after scoring a two round knockout over Phil Scott at Wimbledon stadium last night before a crowd of 45,000, estimated as the largest ever to see a glove contest in England. Vicious left hooks to the body sounded the death knell for Phil Scott’s ring career and elevated Stribling to the highest position the Georgian has known since he was defeated by Jack Sharkey two years ago. Stribling floored Scott four times in the first round, the bell saving the big Englishman from being counted out. Twice Stribling floored Scott for counts of nine each with left hooks to the stomach, and the Englishman made no attempt to claim foul as he did against Sharkey and Otto Von Porat in the United States. A right hook to the jaw put Scott down for the third time for a count of nine in the first round, and when he got up Stribling sent another right to the jaw which sent him down again. Scott was on the floor at the count of four when the bell sounded. After two minutes and 35 seconds of the second round Scott was counted out. A left hook to the stomach, driving deep into Scott’s mid-section, was the finishing punch. Although disgusted with Scott's miserable exhibition, most of the English critics praised Stribling. Trevor Wignall, London Daily Express expert, said “Stribling should now finish his ring life as acknowledged heavyweight champion.” Scott did not land a single damaging punch and was made to look like a novice when he attempted to lead. Stribling was always Scott’s master both on the offensive and defensive.

Great Shires Goes to the Outfield Washington, July 29—(UP) —Art Shires wishes to be known henceforth as outfielder Shires, having been given a new job today by Man ager Walter Johnson of the Senators. Announcement of the transfer of the loquacious first baseman was made after the purchase by the Senators of Joe Kuhel, Kansas City's slugging first-sacker. Kuhel, who is to report at once, was acquired for a price reported at $65,000, which would make him the most expensive recruit in the Capital's baseball history. He had a .377 batting average in the American Association. Shires asked for a chance in the outfield several days ago, remarking “it is a shame to waste a good .300 hitter on the bench.” o | BASEBALL BRIEFS I * * (By United Press) The Chicago Cubs' pursuit of the Brooklyn Robins, National league leaders, continued today with the Culm meeting the Reds at Chicago and the Robins playing the Braves at Boston. The Cubs reduced the Robins’ lead to a game and a half yesterday by breaking the jinx Cincinnati has held over them in the past five games, trouncing the Reds twice, 3-2 and 5-3. Brooklyn won Its sixth straight game by defeating the Boston Braves, 2 to 0. Hollis Thurston, Robin recruit, pitched his second consecutive shutout in less than

Terry hit two home runs, scored three runs and drove in the winning run in the ninth with a sacrifice fly. The Philadelphia Athletics held a 6% game lead over the idle Washington Senators today and hoped to increase it Jo 7 games with another victory over the New York Yankees. Tying the score in the ninth when Jimmy Foxx hit a home run witli a mate on base, the Athletics beat the Yankees in the twelfth on Earnshaw’s triple and Cochrane's single, 6 to 5. Ted Lyons won his 16th game of the season by driving in the winning run himself in the ninth, the Chicago White Sox winning from the St. Louis Browns, 6 to E. Yesterday’s hero: Hollis Thurston, Brooklyn pitcher, who let the Boston Braves down with two hits, winning his second shutout in six days. Thurston has allowed only five hits in the last 18 innings he has pitched and hasn't had a run scored off him. o

ROTARY PLANS HOSPITAL UNIT 1 1 (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE, > —— I for the puipose to which it is to be • devoted. Work on the first unit of the Con- ! valescem sec: ion will be started > ‘ shortly. Ground will be broken with appropriate ceremonies when final 1 plans have been approved. “The announcement in which we join today is one which gives me the greatest of pleasure.” said Hugh McK. Landon. “It marks an achievement in Rotary, so I 4m told, which has no parallel in the history of the i o.ganization. It marks another great step forward in the Riley Hospital program and fills a gap which , has given us great concern. On nohalf of the Riley joint executive committee I congratulate Indiana Rotarians and particularly the splendid committee which has given us such wonderful cooperation. The new unit, we are sure, will meet with the fullest-approval. We shall go forward in the closest harmony with the Rotary representatives.” The members of the Rotary committee are Robert E. Heun, chairman; Charles E. Arnt, Michigan City; Arthur 11. Baxter, Indianapolis, Charles O. Grafton, Muncie; Will G. Irwin. Columbus; Charles . M. Neizer Fort Wayne; Ben Sher ' wood, Bedford. Honorary members are Worth W. Pepple, Michigan City ’ and Dr. Leslie C. Sammons of Shelbyville.

The first unit ot the convalescent section, which will provide for more than sixty patients and which is expected to be a very decided fac'or in increasing the general facilities of the hospital and to add to its patient occupancy in a very substantial way, will cost approximate ly $20,000 under present plans. The Rotary committee and the board, working in close cooperation, however, have reserved the right to increase or decrease facilities in accordance with the needs of the hospital as they may be developed witn in he next few months and to enlarge the construction program if it is considered necessary. The new unit will be built from the cash proceeds of a fund of a quarter million dollars, subscribed •oy individual Rotarians of the Indiana district, with practically every club in the state represented in the subscription list. The total fund however will not be used at once in its entirety in the construction of the first unit of the convalescent home. The balance remaining in the fund, after the first unit is completed, will be set up as the Rotary Convalescent Home Endowment Fund and the income will be used to aid in maintaining the home until such time as greater facilities are needed. In the meantime subscriptions to the endowment fund for general or specific purposes will be received and added to the fund. There are already expressions of intention to contribute to this fund, through outright gifts or through bequests in wills of money or property. The first unit of the Rotary Convalescent Home comprises a building more than 150 feet in length and more than half as deep and will be sent in about the center of a ten acre tract set aside by the Riley Board and the Trustees of Indiana University for convalescent use . The ten acre tract comprises one sector ot the general landscaping of the Indiana University Medical Center, of which the Riley Hospital for Children forms an important part. The site will be landscaped to fit* the best practices of Convalescent Parks. The site adjoins a city park of eighty acres on the west,

faces the newly constructed Bail Residence for Nurses and closely adjoins one of the units of the Riley Hospital, to which it will be connected by a tunnel suitable tor the passage of patients and attendants in bad weather. The top of the tunnel forms a wide sidewalk for use in good weather. The first building will conform to the general type or architecture, used in all Riley buildings, which are 0 fthe English type and tiie I architect, Robert Frost Daggett, hasj made every effort to make the df-i sign, character and equipment of I the building give the atmosphere of a home rather than an institution. On the first floor of the building a terrace twenty-four feet wide has been provided for, part of which is covered by the floor of a second story uncovered but protected balcony, where convalescent children may obtain plenty of fresh air ami light, an essential in their treatment. All wards, of which there ate eight in the two story building, open directly onto these terraces. Each floor will contain four wards two of six beds and two of eight beds each, with a nursery for infants on the second floor. On each floor two large sun or play rooms are provided, in addition to the terraces and balcony, Beds may be moved directly from the wards into the sun rooms or onto the terraces. Class rooms have been provided on each floor as well as occupational therapy rooms and a large library. A dining room ample in size to handle eighty or more patients and attendants is a part of the plan. An auditorium for motion picture exhibitions, plays and for the entertainment of the children will be provided. This will be so arranged that it can be converted into a small bymnasium for corrective treatment or a large playroom for winter use.

A most modern feature of ths first unit will be a lapge special light room, where ten or twelve children can be given artifical sun light treatment, special units being installed for this purpose. Treatment rooms, utility space, toilet am' locker rooms, quarters for attendants, nurses and an administrate i unit are other important features of the building. The hospital is now caring for an average daily attendance of approximately 190 children and has a steady waiting list of nearly two hundred patients. Every county in Indiana, with one exception has sent patients to the Riley Hospital under the quota plan. The Convalescent unit will serye every county in tlie state.
