Cutting loose in the last half with a barrage of field goals the Stutz jVTotor team downed the Diamond Chain five. 33-29, in the headline attraction of the City League session held Wednesday night at the H. A. C. gym. The game was one ■of those thrilling hard fought encounters that have developed recently as the race for the circuit honors draws to a close. Both teams were tied for second place along with the Big Four team before Wednesday’s tilt. The Big Four and Stutz although not competing in as many games are virtually tied for second place. The Hoosier Athletic Club quintet, thanks to the accurate shooting of Lugar, retained its lead by defeating the Pennsylvania Railway team, SOBS.

Statements by McGraw and Ruth Encourage—Other Teams Powerful. By Frank Getty NEW YORK, Feb. 3—Encouraged by optimistic statements from John J. McGraw and “Babe” Ruth, New York baseball fans are celebrating the aftermath of the scandals by looking forward to another world series all their own next fall. New Yorkers enjoyed the series of 1921, 1922, and’ 1923 and wouldn’t mind having the Giants and Yankees do it all over again in 1927. Having acquired Rogers Hornsby, A1 DeVormer, Burleigh Grimes and Harper, Manager McGraw apparently has strengthened the Giants to a point where they will be hard to beat. His infield ranks with the best in the league, and as usual, It is just a question of how the pitchers will go. The recovery of “Pep” Young is, of course, a fairly necessary factor. ' . Yankee’s Outlook As for the Yankees, “Babe” Ruth, who guesses them right as often as anyone, says his team is “home” again. If the “Babe” himself is right, as he was in 1926, and if the “kid infield” tightens up, the other American League teams are going to have to show improvement if they want to nose the Yanks out of the pennant. ’ Acquisition of Tris Speaker not only delighted Washington, which is an enthusiastic and sentimental baseball town, but it has made the Senators a likely pennant factor for 1927. \ The Senators have been greatly strengthened since the close of the 1926 season. The trade tfiat sent Roger Peckinpaugli to Chicago for Hollis Thurston and Leo Mangum ga. e Buqky Harris at least one more first class pitcher at practically no expense. With Buddy Myer broken in as a big league shortstop, Peck was not needed here any longer. All-Star Outfield Speaker will play center field, flanked by the hard hitting "Goose” Goslin and fleet-footed Sam Rice. This combination will give Washington one of the strongest outfields ip the league, and certainly the best fielding trio. McNeely, who played center field for the Senators, last season, will be retained as a utility player, or used in a trade for one more good pitcher. Bucky Harris needs pitchers most of all, as his infield, composed of Judge, Myer, Bleuge and himself, is a sound one. And with “Muddy” Ruel and Tate the catching staff is O. Iv. From this distance, however, it still looks a lot more like the Athletics and the Reds in the next world’s series. PAY TWICE! Suzanne Faces Heavy Tax Levy on Income. Bu l piled Press WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.—Suzanne Lenglen probably will have to pay America as well as French income taxes on her professional tennis earnings in this country last year, treasury officials said today. Income of aliens in this country is subject to the same tax rate as income of citizens. If Suzanne earned SIOO,OOO last year, as reported, she may have to pay from SIO,OOO to $15,000 of it to Uncle Sam. This, in addition to the reported $40,000 French levy, would take from ther more than one-half of the total revenue of her racquet.

City Bowling Gossip By Lefty Lee Tile feature of Wednesday night's bowling was taken over by the wometi, who decided the men were claiming too much spotlight. The 1900 Whirlpools of the Century Ladies’ League rolled anew city record high score for, three games when they totaled 2,625 pins on games of 791, 894 and 940. Their final game of 940 is anew record for the Century League Wellencamp led the assault with a total qf 573, secured on games of 159, 213 and 201. Johns had 541; Doby, 541; Gill, 496, and Mayer, 474. These games dropped the Rockwood Pully team for three straight. The U Knos also won three from the Mooney-Mueller-Ward team, while the Tee-Bees, Rockwood Friction and Alley Rats were taking two cut of three from the Harris M. & T. Cos., Century Bobbies and Hoosier Poets. Seven games of better thau 200 were rolled, the 222 of Johns being high by one pin over Harlan, who had 221. Next Sunday the Indianapolis Grotto boys journey to St. Louis to finish their match with the St. Louis meinl>frs who were here several weeks ago. For this reason Ed Richert, B. Johnson, R. Roberson and L. Shultz will roll their four games in the alley owners’ classic at 9:30 Saturday morning, to enable them to catch their train at 11:30. On the Capitol alleys Wednesday night at one time in their middle game the Marott team had 3-3 4-5 and 7 strikes in a row on the board. These “old” boys were prancing like colts and they surely were piling up the strikes in a fashion to make one dizzy. Their games were 1,036, 1,134 and 1,045, for a total of 3,215. The first gamo was a sensational affair, ftlarotts winning with 1,036 to 1,030 over the Silver Flash. After this the Marott boys just walked in. While this was taking place the H. E. Schmitt boys were pounding out games of 1,022, 1,029 and 1,051, for a total of 3,102 against the 3-F Coffees' 1056, 980 and 992, for a total of 3,028. This gave the Insurance boys the series by the two-out-of-three route. The Robbins Body team secured games of 3,024 to win all three games from the Werbe-Meisgen boys. The Body team copped the last game by one pin when Lew Farhbach struck out. In the other match of this loop the Coca-Cola hoys won two out of three from the Em-Roes. The Em-Koos won the middle game with a total of I, to the “Cokes’” 991. Eleven games passed the 1,000 mark and the high one went over for a total of 1,134. Eighteen men passed the 600 mark. The 681 of the veteran Charlie Cray secured on games of 234, 255 and 192 was high. “Nan” Schott had 614; Sargent, 620; Coval, 637; Patterson, 603; ICimmel, 605; Crooke, 658; Fahrbacb, 601; Bowen, 606: Hackard, 625; Rass, 636; Wiesman, 660; F. Fox, 649; Naughton. 608; Stritt, 640; Wheeler, 641; Osthemfer, 642, and Parsons, 615. Fifty-eight games passed the 200 mark, the 268 of Crooke.winning the 3-F coffee prize for high single game. This also is anew second for 200 scores in an eight club league. This league's floor average tfor the night was 989 pins per game. FREE THROW RECORD What is thought to be a basketball record was set in Omaha when Grinnell University basketball players made good on 15 consecutive free throw attempts.

The Referee

Did Charley Jamieson of Cleveland ever do much pitching in the majors. —T. F. Very little. Jamieson in his last year in the minors played the outfield as well as pitched and most of his major league career has been confined to the outfield. Did Joe Dugan play third base the first year he joined the Athletics? ! —F. P. He did not. He played short his first two years, then alternated at j short and second for two mort years. He went to third inch's fifth year in (he majors. Who is rated the fastest man in the American League?—J. H. That is merely a matter of opinion. It is doubtful if any player steps to first faster than French of the Athletics. Mostil of the White Sox is a better baserunner the rest of the way. Did Johnson lead the American League pitchers in strikeouts in 1926? "What was his record? —M. K. No. Johnson ranked fourth with 125. Grove of the Athletics led with 194; Uhlc of Cleveland second with M 59. and Al Thomas of Chicago third I with 127. IRISH STAR ELIGIBLE i Christy Flanagan Back in School at _ South Bend.

PRIMA DONNA PLAYERS HAVE BREADON WORRIED First It’s Hornsby—Then Comes Alex the Great, Haines, Rhem, Bell and Thevenow.

I>y Henry L. Farrell United Press sia't Correspondent NEW YORK, Feb. 3. Sam Ereauon probably was beginning to realize today the troubles that accompany control of a world championship baseball team. Breadon, majority stockholder in the St. Louis Cardinals, put plenty of money in .the team when shares of Cardinal stock would have been worth about 10 cents a dozen in thb open market. He displaced his old friend, Branch Rickey and made Rogers Hornsby, the great right-handed batter, the manager of the club. He put into Hornsby's contract an agreement that he would have to assume the management of the team for the salary of a player and that as a bonus-he could have so many shares of stock in the club. Proceed to Differ Bleadon and Hornsby then proceeded into business differences that resulted in a trade in which Hornsby was sent to the New Y'ork Giants. Then It developed, after a meeting of the stockholders of the St. Louis club, that Hornsby was a member of the board of directors of the St. Louis club and at the same time was the seepnd baseman of the New York Giants. John He.vdler, president of the National League, said Hornsby never can play second base for the Giants as long as he is a director of the St. Louis club. “There are seventy days in which to adjust this business arrangement, and there is no cause l'or alarm or scandal,” Heydler said. All in the Game The Hornsby problem isn’t the only one that Breadon has to consider. Breadon has among his unsigned players Alexander the Great, Jess Haines, Flint Rhem, Lester Bell and Tommy Thevenow. That Is the whole Cardinal team. They all want more motley and Breadon is having for the first time

.the experience that the owners of other championship teams have gone through. The Giants, a second division team, have signed all their players with the exception of George Kelly and Zeke Barnes and the Giant office is not worrying about them. The Yankees, a championship team, is having the same trouble.
