Big League Stuff

Ruth's fifty-fifth homer and a twin victory for the Yanks over St. Louis was a flno day’s work on the part of Huggins’ men Thursday, King Cole's fine pitching for the Tiger* gave Detroit a victory over the Red Sox. Tbe Giants boosted their lead by trimming the Reds with Barnes on the mound. Smith's home run in the third with Lavan on base gave the Cardinals a victory over Brooklyn. The Phils bumped Stueland, a Cub right bander, in his first start for Bill KU lifer. The Cleveland Indians kept pace with the Yanks when they took two games from the Athletics with Mails and Caldwell In form.

Thursday night recommended that the 9 8-5 seconds record for the 100-yard dash made by Arthur Duffey, In 1902. he restored to the official books.

The recommendation together with the papers in the case will be forwarded to the national registration committee of the A. A. U., which will consider the case when It meets In Chicago In November. Duffey appeared before the New England committee and presented his claim and evidence to prove he had not turned professional.

TRIBE FALTERS IN LOUISVILLE Indians Have Poor Hitting Day and Colqnels Take Series Opener. LOUISVILLE, Sept. 16.—After a poor start in the series opener here yesterday, which they lost, 7 to 1, the Indians today hoped to get themselves together with force sufficient to knock the leagueleading Colonels for a goal. Failure to hit cost the Tribesmen the contest yesi terday, only three safeties representing their total for the afternoon off of Beu Tincup, the real redskin with the Louisville team. Baird, Rogge and Covington were the lone Indians to pole out hits, liogge got in the game as a right fielder when Manager Hendricks twisted his line-up after he had taken Shinners out and Schreiber had been given the bum’s ru3h by Umpire Daly. The Colonels hopped on Weaver for thirteen hits, and in addition to hitting safely, they also got the breaks. Asa result there was not much chance for the Hoosiers. Colonel fans really feared the coming of the Indians, for wild tales had been spread about the great form the team had been displaying at Toledo. But that fine form apparently was left in Toledo, for the Hendricksmen performed below par vesterday. ** Doug Baird didn’t forget to grab off his usual stolen base, however, Just to prove that he had not left his legs back In Toledo. Manager Hendricks was highly peeved ever base decisions by Umpire Daly and when Daly ordered Schreiber out of the game for kicking, the Tribe pilot shook his team up until it presented a strange appearance. The pitching of Tincup was really good, however, and It was his good form that put the Hoosiers out of the running for the afternoon. The Colonel hurler got himself three hits in addition to delivering from the mound. Tincup has not been beaten this season, but he has not pitched a whole lot, being used as an extra outfielder and pinch hitter. TRIBE ATTENDANCE SIXTH.

SHORTRIDGE GRID SPIRIT OF OLD SPURS 1921 CANDIDATES

By HEZE CLARK. There is anew spirit at Sbortrlilge. or rather the revival of the old spirit known in the years when the Blue and White football teams held the grid championship of the high schools of eight States and even defeated a number of college teams. To be sure, the Short* ridge team is not as heavy as some that have represented the north side school, but in modern football, where the forward pass plays such a prominent part, the light team has an almost equal chance with a heavy one, providing the light team develops team play and has speed. Shortridge has a football field this year "‘within hitting distance.” of the oehcol. Instead of the boys going to a field located near Fairvlew Park and so far from the school that they always were late to practice and so far from home that the football players usually ate dinner every evening after S o’clock. the north side athletes have this season a place to practice. The Shortridge work-outs are held at Meridian and Thirty-Fourth streets, "in the heart of the Shortridge territory,” one boy.' expressed it Thursday. A clubhouse has been built It is large enough for lockers for all the squad, and by Monday

m/urn The Elks’ League is “rarin - ” to go. Organization plans have been completed and the circuit 1* ready to start the balls roiling next Wednesday night at the Central alleys. The Antlers, Ears, Eyes, Hides, Hoofs, Shin Bones. Tails and Teeth will be with us again this season. Just *o the men would not get a start on them, the Capitol ladle* have started their season with a six-team league. They bowl In the evening, Just like the men. Mr*. Repnold* posted the high scon in the ladies’ league, with a count .f 187, There was also a score of 33, but then such things will happen. The Plntas, Ferdinand* and Salvators In the K. of C. League had a clean *weep of three game* in their whirl at the pins. Wuench of the K. C. Columbians rolled 225 for the high total of the circuit. Naughton had the lest three game score. Schneider and Beberich were the only two other bowler* to reach the coveted 200 mark. The Fountain Squares was the only team in Beam s No 3 league that bowled consistently enough to grab three games. All the totals were more than 800. After a poor start Golden of the Mllholland's finally got going and maltreated the maples for the big single game total of the evening—23s. In the Abattoir League tbe Pigs lived up to their name and took three from the Calves. The Hog* tried hard, but managed to grab only two out of three from the Steers. Guthrie of the Lamb* helped beat the Bulla in the first game by hitting the maples for 203 He was through then for the evening and *o w#re the Lambs It was the only double century of the night. British Golfers Lose DETROIT, Sept. 10—Abe Mitchell and George Duncan, the British golfers, w.-re defeated in the best ball eighteen hole matches Thursday. Jock Hutchison, tbe British open champion, and Leo Diesel, local pro" took the Briton*' measure. 1 up. in the morning round, while Hutchison and Walter Hagen, Western and Michigan open champions, captured the afternoon contest, 8 and 2. N. D. Work Starts NOTRE DAME, Ind . Kept. 16 —Candidates reported for the first official practice of the season at Cartier field Thurs day and were given a work out in both the morning and afternoon.

The field is level, but some work murft be done to fill up a few holes and rough places or there will be sprained ankles and twisted knees before the practice is well under way. SEW SPIRIT GRIPS ] THE ENTIRE SCHOOI,. The revival of the winning spirit was I evident yesterday not only on the grtdi iron, but also at the Shortridge school building. New officers were chosen for the Shortridge Athletic Association. E. C. Watson, a member of the faculty, was elected president. James Kay. a husky football player, was chosen vice I president. Ellen Saxon, one of the best girl basket-ball players ever at the north side school, was elected secretary, and Miss Dorothy Bowser, a member of the faculty, was named treasurer, j F. C.

FOUR STRUGGLE FOR CROWN IN SINGLES MEET Johnson vs. Anderson and Davis vs. Tilden in SemiFinals at Philadelphia. By HENRY FARRELL, United Press Sports Editor. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 16.—Four of the 108 tennis stars who started in the chase after the national singles championships a week ago were to play today In the semi-final round at the Germantown Cricket Club. Two Philadelphians, an Australian and a Californian survived the rather flat fifth round yesterday and were to pasg through the process of being halved today. Wallace F. Johnson, the big Philadelphians w-ho perhaps has been nearer the championship than any other player, was to play .Tames C. Anderson, the long Australian star, considered by many as having a fine chance to get into the final round. Johnson was the finalist in 1912, when he lost the title on a ‘"funny bounce.” He was a semi-finalist in 1919 and 1920 and again this year finds himself among the last to live through. Anderson seems to have reached the form that caused such glowing account* to be sent out of Australia about his game. He has much more steadiness and his game is much better ail around than it was at Newport when his wildness helped the Japanese team beat the Australians. The Johnson-Anderson match was billed as the feature of the day and was to be played at 4 o'clock on the exhibition courts. Willis E. Davis, San Francisco, regarded from the start as a semi-finalist and one of the favorites in the tournament, did the expected and reached the next to last round with William T. Tilden, the world's champion. Chances of Davis to get into the final with either Johnson or Anderson are considered very small although and he has been playing a very good game. PHILADELPHIA, Kept 16.—Mr*. Molla Mallory, national champion for women, was to meet Miss Anne Townsend of Marion, In the semi-final round of the women's middle States singles today.
