weakening it a bit as could Strickler. Dale Myers, Mora firm. Ranker was the outstanding player on number one atop. Myers fielded the ball well and hit high up in the .300's. At second base James Hark|eaa, Lions midget keystone sacker was bint consistently. Hark less hit a bove the average and fielded better than most of the second basemen. He showed much improvement every game. Fisher, Moose shortstop had one bad game, the tournament game agalnst the Rotary team, but during the regular season be played fairly consistently and was a dangerous man to knock the bail toward, if the batter wished to reach first safely Blythe, Rotary hot-corner man was by far the outstanding third sacker. He always kept cool and was good in the tight places. Blythe also managed to hit the sphere over .300. Two utility infielders were named on the team, because of their ability to play a number of positions. Sonny Ehiuger, Rotary second baseman and outfielder can play' any position on the team in good shape and can hit far above the average. No all-city team would be complete without a man like Ehlnger. Dick Macklin. Moose keystone sacker can play any position except umpire and even that sometime". Dick’s the other choice for all-round infielder. In the outfield are Murphy. Rotary; Cook Moose; Carl Ritter, Moose; and Kleinhenz, Rotary. Kleinhenz was moved from first base to outfield, because he is a heavy hitter. So there’s the team.'lt won’t suit all the fans. It won’t suit all the players. It won’t suit all the managers, but it suits us—and that’s our story and we’ll stick to it. The American Legion deserves a hig hcompliment for organizing the junior league and all local sport lans are boosting for a bigger league next season. The managers, Pat Coffee, Rotary; Harry Knapp, Lions; Ferd O'Brien. Legion and Buck Bax'er Moose, have worked hard with the boys, and have showed them lots of baseball which will be a great asset when Tiny Horton and Herb Curtis organize a high school baseball team next spring. o — Youngest Dean Danville, Ind., —(VP) —Centra!

TRICK PLAYS PRACTICED BY EOILERMAKERS Purdue Coach Plans Surprises In Grid Games This Fall Lafayette, Ind . Sept. s.—Several new wrinkles which are expected to give added deception to Purdue’s offensive will be presented this fall when th(> Boilermakers take the field in defense of their Big Ten title, providing the new plays tried out in spring practice live up to the expectations of Noble Kizer, hustling new head coach. While there will be no radical change from the style of play that brought Purdue the title last fall. Kizer has added several refinements io plays of test'd value that are expected to increase their effectiveness. Ample opportunity to test the value of the new ideas on offensive play was given during spring practice, when Kizer split the squad into four teams that played a regular round robin series for the spring “championship." In that manner he managed to use tlie apiing drill for a period of experimentation with the new ideas he* intends to incorporate with the system that brought Purdue the .•hampionship last fall, as well as an intensive period on football fundamentals for the development of the new men who must take the places of such graduating stars as Welch, Harmeson, Sleight, Caraway, Mackie and Woerner. The new variations of old plays, and the new additions to the “play book" looked decidedly effective in spring drill, and while he does not intend to definitely incorporate them in the system until they are proven under acid test of regular game competitipn, Kizer, along with other meihhers of the coaching staff, frankly believes tliat there will be several surprises in store for Purdue’s opponents this fall. Most of the value of Kizer’s variations, as seen through the eyes of those who witnessed spring practice, comes through the increased deception and power that is added to spinners and line plays inside and outside tackle through a greater perfection of timing. In discussing his comteinplated changes in attack, Kizer called attention to the fact that Purdue has always lived up to the spirit of the shift rule, as evidenced by the fact that the Boilermakers were not given a single fifteen yard penalty for violation of the shift rule during the 1929 season. '“There will be no changes in our shift," he said, “as there has been no change in the shift rule, other than a change in the wording." o | BASEBALL BRIEFS ♦ ♦ The Chicago Cubs were a step nearer the National league pennant today after increasing their lead to 4)4 games yesterday by winning a 10-inning battle from Pittsburgh while the New York Giants bowed to the Boston Braves. After the Pirates had tied the score in the ninth, the Cubs won out in the tenth when Gabby Hartnett hit his second home run of the game with two mates on base. The score was 10-7. Tom Zachary, veteran southpaw, held the Giants at bay while his teammates hung up a 7-1 victory. The St. Louis Cardinals pulled up even wlUi the Giants in second place by wmning from Cincinnati, 13-2. Jimmy Wilson, Cards’ catcher, had a perfect day at bat, and Watkins, Cards’ outfielder, stole home. In the American league Philadelphia struggled from behind to hold their 6)4 game lead with an 8-7 victory over the Boston Red Sox in 15 innings. Al Simmons was the hero of the Athletics’ victory, hitting two singles, a double and a home run to drive in six runs. With the Red Sox two runs ahead in the fourte< nth Simmons hit a homer with one man on to tie the score, in the fifteenth with the bases loaded and two out, he singled to drive n the winning tally. Washington won from the New York Yankees, 3-2, Bump Hadley shading Henry Johnson in a pitching duel. Hadley allowed six hits and fanned six, while Johnson allowed seven hits and fanned eleven. Willis Hudlin allowed but three hits and Cleveland defeated the Chicago White Sox, 3-2. Detroit made eight runs on nine hits and beat the St. Louis Browns, 8-4. Yesterday’s hero: Gabby Hartnett, Chicago Cubs’ catcher, who hit his 30th and 31st home runs of, the season, each with two men on base, and batted his team to a 107 victory over Pittsburgh. „ Major League Leaders Following statistics compiled by

With a 6*4 game lean in the American league the Athletics can feel reasonably certain of capturing the flag if they win nine oi their remaining 18 games. If the Athletics win half their games, Washington would have to win 18 out of its remaining 21 to beat out Philadelphia. In the National league the Cuba, witli a 4*4 game lead over tire New York Giants and St. Louiu Cardinals, have 21 games left to play. If the Cubs win 11 and lose 10, the Giants or Cardinals would nave to r apture 17 out of their remaining 22 games to finish in front. Altohugh mathematically still in the race, the Brooklyn Robins have definitely given up their pennant hopes and are struggling to hold a first division berth. The Robins are six games behind the Cubs, and have only 21 games left to play. If the Cubs win only 10 out of their 21 games, the Robins would have to win 17 out of their 21 games to finish ahead. The following tables show the standing of the leaders, games behind and games left to play in the two pennant races: National League Team W. L.
