ST. LOUIS FANS HAVE TWO REAL TEAMS TO BACK . \ . Browns Showing Way in American and Cafdjs Second in National. GREAT PLAYERS ON CLUBS By WESTBROOK PEGLER, United News Staff Correspondent. NEW YORK, June 29. Chris Von Der Ahe’s St. Louis ball club won four consecutive pennants from ISBS to 1888. Those were American Association pennants, but they were big-time j buntings in their day. From that time until now St. Louis never caught sight of a championship flag. Since Von Der Ahe's time the Cardinals have finished in the first division only four times and the Browns but three. So even if the Browns and Cardinals go tumbling down into the second division befpre the end of the present season. St. Louis will have another incident In her history by which to date things into the future. Why Fans Can Boast This will be known as the year at least in which the Browns led the American league almost up to the half-way mark of the season and the Cardinals clung to the second perch in the National until the world got right up to its eyebrow s in the merry month of Jure. St. Louis and Washington are the only cities in the present membership of the big leagues that never have had a pennent in modern baseball. A few years back the Browns were known as the "Dumb Dismals." and I the Cardinals, under Miller Huggins, weren’t so very much better; the Federal League had a club In the town, and basball conditions were generally unhealthy and unhappy. And yet St. Louis went to the ball games. Home of the Two “Greats” Branch Rickey, who switched over from the management of the Browns I to take charge of the Cardinals. I shanghaied George Sisler from the University of Michigan and spiked him down in St. Louis as a member | of the Browns after a fight in which J Sisler might have been awarded to j the National League. Rickey also brought up and brought ! out Rogers Hornsby. A year ago John McGraw wanted Hornsby so bad- j ly that J} offered Rickey 8125.000 for j the Texan's contract and Rickey said j he wouldn't sel' it. And the Browns j have Ken Williams, author of twenty home runs. For these reasons St. Louis will forget about by-gone days and around the cigar stores at night they say: "It j looks like first division sure.” WEISSMULLER IS RETURNING .Johnny leaves Honolulu After Hanging Up Records.

RACING UPSETS CAUSE PATRONS TO HOLD COIN Jo!‘y Old Public Weary of Form Reversals on Eastern Tracks. RUMOR OF JOCKEY PROBE NEW YORK, June 29.—Form reversals, those interesting little incidents of the race tracks which leave you sadder and wiser and lighter about the form-fitting wallet, have become so prevalent at the metropolitan tracks this season that the jolly old public is just a bit wearied, not to say nonplussed. There have been entirely too many upsets since the opening of the sea son to suit the taste of most of the turf patrons. Rumors, plentiful though vague, have it that an official investigation of some peculiar looking races is about to be launched and that a few suspensions are to be passed around among the boys. However, nothing of this kind is in evidence yet. These reversals have had the effect of making betting in this vicinity more precarious than ever and it i3 significant that the crowds at Belmont Park and Aqueduct, have not been up to the standard of recent years. They are staying away, in droves, not because they look with suspicion upon racing, a turf fan being incurable, but because the average citizen hasn't the financial resources to withstand a continued run of form reversals. Manager Leads the Way Ernest Calbert, now managing Ham ilton, is showing his players how they should bat. He has been leading the whole Mlchigan-Ontario League in hitting here of late.
