CRUCIAL GAMES PLAYED TODAY New York, Sept. 10 —(U.R) —With the National League pennant hanging in the balance, the four contenders entered the second stage of their crucial series today, the Cubs and Robins playing at Ebbets field and the Cardinals and Giants battling at the Polo grounds. Victories for the easterners in the opening games yesterday left the Cubs 2L4 games ahead of the Cardinals and Robins, virtually tied for second place, and 3 games ahead of the fourth-place Giants. If the Robins and Giants win aga n today, the two eastern contenders will hold the balance of power in the race. The Cubs’ collapse seems too genuine, as they have dropped seven out of their last ten games and their pitching staff appears worn out from the hard struggle to the top. With their ace, Pat Malone, beaten 3-0 in the opening game yesterday, the Cubs were hard up for a starting pitcher today. Manager Joe McCarthy had h's choice | between Charley Root and Bud Teachout.

As for Brooklyn. Manager Wilbert Robtimon planned to shoot Adolfo Luque at the Cubs. a Thanks to the wise hurling of j Clarence Mitchell, 39-year-old i southpaw who was castoff by the j Cards earlier In the year, the Giants have moved back into a ’ ! dangerous position. Mitchell, last . jof the southp/w spit-ball pitchers, i [ held the Cards to 7 hits and allowf' ed but two men to reach second as • he pitched the Giants to a 2-1 vici tory, breaking St. Louis’ 7-gaine ■ ; winning streak. ,! Although Burleigh Grimes was beaten yesterday. Manager .Gabby Street was better off for pitchers I today than Dave Bancroft, acting , manager of the Giants. Street had HUI Hallahan and Sylvester ' 1 Johnson ready for mound duty, | while Bancroft had to choose be- ' tween Will Walker, who has been unsteady in a pinch in two of his [last three games, and Jim Chap- ’, lin, a rookie. John J. McGraw, Giants' leader 1 watched yesterday's game from ’ ■ the clubhouse window In center field. Bancroft, who has been ! managing the Giants for almost two months, was banished for pro--1 testing decisions, and the Giants finished the game under the coni- ■ mand of Irish Meusel, former out- . fielder. Manager Joe McCarthy of the i Cubs refuses to concede that his | team has given up the battle. “I won't say the Cubs will win I the pennantj’’ he said, “but I'll ! say that they'll fight to the very last ditch. There is no truth to I the rumors that the Cubs are fighting among themselves. My [confidence in the Cubs is as strong as ever.” t o New I.H.S.A.A. System of Control Discussed Indianapolis, Sept. 10—(UP) 4 —A new system of electing members I if the board of control and legis-] lative body of the Indiana Sta‘ ■! High Schol Athletic Association ii order to permit larger schools to I have more legislative power, was presented to Principals of the State ! 1 through a bulletin issued by A. L Trester, commissioner of Athletics.' [ The plan, which will be submitt-1 [ ed to the next meeting of the legis-1 ‘ lative body, divides schools of the 1 i association into three classes. Class 1 1 , number one consists of schools with |one of 75 enrollment; class num- [ ber two composed of schools with ‘ ,5 to 250 enrollment; and class, ‘ number three is schools of 350 and over. 1 The plan would not change the present system of dividing the I state into districts ami election to I the board of control from each class would proceed in turn. Should the plan be adopted at the next j meeting it would not *ake complete I .effect until 1933 due to the fact I that some of the present board members continue in their positions for the next two years. 0 Uncle Eben “When you forgljw an enemy,’ said Uncle Eben.

NEW LINEMEN 1 ARE DEVELOPED Bloomington, Sept. 19 —Develop- ' nient of new linemen to take the places of such men as Cutterton and McCracken at ends; Shields K. Bennett and Dudding at guards', Ringwait at center; and Unger and Hojnacki at tackles, will be emphasized by the Indiana university football coaching staff during the beginning practice sessions next week in order to place the Hoosiers in top condition for the season opener. This will be with Miami university in the Indiana Memorial bowl Sept. 27. Regulars who saw considerable service in the Crimson initial defense last season and who are expected to show up well this season Include Joe Zeller, of East Chicago. who worked at a guard position, Paul Jasper, of Fort Wayne, at tackle, and Jack Hansen, of River Forest, 111. at one of the wings. Members of the championship “B" team which had such a commendable season with victories over lowa 9-6. Ohio State 13-0, and Northwestern by a 19-6 conn', should prove to be a big factor in bolstering up the holes left in the line by graduation. Chief among the end prospects is William Blagrave. of Washington, who should have a good chance at one of the berths along with Hansen. For the tackle posts Coach Pat Page expects Joe Morris, of East Chicago, and Charles Joyner, of Newcastle, to make strong bids. I Both showed up well with the reserve team and should perform in better fashion during the coming season. From the “B" team Ambrose Rascher. of Cedar Lake, and Charles Henry, of Seymour, seem I to be the outstanding candidates for the other guard post along with Zeller. However, from the incoming sophomore squad there are four likely prospects in Frank Chamness, of Galveston; John Keckich. of Whiting; James Morris, of Gary; and William Rehm, of Indianapolis. In looking over I the candidates for the center booth . to replace Ringwait, Neal Baxter, i of Bluffton, seems to be a promising prospect. As usual there is an abundance of reserve material for the end j posts and they should give Hansen I and Blagrave plenty of competiI tion. Outstanding among the material are Paul Richardson, of Martinsville, Art Thomas, of Plymouth, and Ernie Rea, <*f Indianapolis. POLO TROPHY IS AT STAKE Meadowbrook, N. Y„ Sept. 10 — (U.R) —Riding once more in defense of the famous Westchester Cup. America's new' “Big Four” needed but one more victory this afternoon to keep the trophy safe from the latest British challenge. If they win today, Tommy Hitchcock and his hard-hitting, hardriding young team-mates will end the 1930 series. Ard after their 10 to 5 victory in the first game Saturday, * the Americans are strong favorites. The British came back today with the same line-up that met defeat before a record throng of 45,000 in the first match. Captain Tremayne, non-playing captain of ■ ihe challenging side, decided to make no change. Today’s line-up, therefore, will be: U. S. —No. 1 Eric Pedley, no. 2 Earle Hopping, No. 3 Tommy Hitchcock; back Winton Guest. England—No. 1 Gerald Balding, No. 2 Louis Lacey. No. »3 (’apt. C. T. I. Roark, back Humphrey Guinness.

Sept. 10 —(UP) —Ruination of Kalgan, on the Sino-Mon-I golian border, once the active cen-| er of fur-buying in the Far East, [ s reported by the few furbuyers who have visited the place this vear. China’s civil wars and ex- 1 , -essive- taxes, combined with th: I Outer Mongolia recently declare oorts of China, are responsible for ieterioration of Kalgan. Five years ago. the fur-buyers j leclare, Kalgan in the summer was Imost a resort, filled with foreign nd Chinese fur-bnyeis. This sumner it has languish.d, with practically no visitors. At that time there were 60 tan- [ teries in Hsnanh’.tafu, near Kai-1 ran. By last year, the number had ‘ Swindled to 30, and this summer! there were only 12. Foreigners who have visited Out-. ?r Mongolia recently declare that I vast area is under domination of Soviet Russia, and an embargo has been imposed on trade with China proper, in order to divert the fur■ trade through Harbin to Vladivo-1 stock. Th» embargo is not so serious, however, as innumberable taxes imposed n North China, make it impossible for traders to compete in the world fur market. Twenty-eight separate taxes are now collected on goods brought from Kalgan to Tientsin. Most of these taxes are "illegal,” according to agreements I with foreign countries, but protests | have no effect in abolishing them. 1 Taxes change from day to day, I so that traders cannot compute in idvance what they will have X nay. This uncertainty virtually has killed the trade. o 1,000 ATTEND ANNUAL MEET; SAPP SPEAKS — (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) drawing their share of the crowds and get a big applause after every performance of their free act.

Auburn mentor stated Monday that be was drilling hfs aggregation hard for the approaching battle— Tiny Horton hasn't let up a minute on the Jacketmen and Tuesday afternoon the squad worked the best it has this* fall. Schnepp. Coffee. Melchi and Odle are the four apparently on top of the heap for end positions right now on the Jacket squad. Melchi is a veteran of last vear's squad—And the other three boys are making it hot for him.
