Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

New YORK. July 28—A lew days ago. buried down near the hem-line r( tnt third or fourth sport page was a smallish news Item telling about a mishap that had occurred to tne soupbone of Big Ed Morris, the Boston Red Sox chucker. Lt seems that Big Ed had thrown his shoulder wit of gear or twisted a tendon or done something while limbering up or down in what the ball players call the hell hole, or bull pen. Os course there never is very much news in the Red Sox and even when their star chucker gets his soupbone all out of whack it isn't enough to get out an extra edition about. an n Well, from wh>l one of mj out-of-town •routs report*, the accident which befr" Bir Ed was tofTlcieaUv unusual and exciting ta merit much greater attention than It receiTed in the pertt pare*. The farta of the ease were quite different in nature and significance from those revealed in the routine newt report. 808 Big Ed wasn't hurt down in the hell hole or bull pen: hr was hurt in a midright hotel jam while resisting the law after a night of hilarity and no great optimism exists on the Boston club that he will ever pitch winning ball again. a b a AM sitting in the lobby of my 1 hotel one night,” writes the aforementioned scout, “and a big swaggering gent comes in and heads for the elevator. I see that he is in gay spirits and in a playful mood and I can not help but reflect that the beverages must be very good indeed. I am amused at the big geezer, because as he stands there with his thumb glued to the elevator button he takes off his hat and peels off a long, ringing, ‘whoopee.’ a a a ••Well, finally the elevator arrives and thia fellow stumbles In and the door alams and the people who are sitting in the lobby smile. I went back to reading my form chart, thinking 1 had aeen the last of this mur and philosophizing that a little fun once in a while wouldn't hurt nobody when the elevator comes back from wherever it had gone and stops with a smashing noise at the lobby floor, .and when the door is pulled hack, whom do you suppose is at the throttle? Nobody but this big guy. He sticks his hesd out the door, tears off another ear-blasting 'whoopee.' slams the door shut and shoots the car back up to the top. aan •'X do not know how long this went on. Some of the hotel officials tried to lasso him between stops, but he had nothing but Impatience for them when he found out they did not want to climb aboard and help him holler. Bv this time he needed help to holler, but in all other respects he was holding out pretty well I suppose he had been up and down about ten or twelve times when a large group of blue coats swarmed Into the hotel lobby and advanced on the elevator in mass formation. a a a “T THOUGHT when the big yokel A got a flash of the coppers he would calm down, but instead he took on anew cargo of power and ambition and started swinging from all angles. Finally, the flatfoots had to take out a pair of bracelets and snap them on his wrists, and even then he kept on squirming and wiggling and trying to throw punches, and the only way they could get him to surrender was to twist the iron bands tighter and harder, and. of course, this didn't do his pitching arm any good. a a a •'lt was a swell show, with a lot of good, clean fun and if the other aide has as tough a time getting him out of the box as the law did getting him out of the eleTator that night I can understand why, thev iar he is a great pitcher—when he ts right.” a a a This. then, is the story of how Big Ed hurt his arm. I am told that nobody knows whether his arm is permanently or temporarily Injured. It would be a tough blow for Big Ed If he were forced out of baseball and a lucrative position as the result of this skv-larklng incident. But it would be an even tougher blow on Bob Quinn and his associates who are spending what limited funds they have at their command to bring Boston back to a position of prestige it once occupied In the American League. __ a a a It was only a year or so ago that the Yankees made one of their spectacular bids for Big Ed. I think the offer was SIOO,OOO, or at least that's what the headlines said.

Macks Have 34 Home Tilts and 21 on Road; Play Yanks, Nats Next A's Top Faltering Senators by Six Games and Appear Capable of Coasting to Pennant; Robins, Cubs Continue Hot Battle. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY L'nited Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK. July 28.—With approximately two-thirds of the schedule completed, the major league situation today pointed to another pennant for the Philadelphia Athletics and a struggle between the Brooklyn Robins and tne Chicago Cubs for the National league flag. The two-third-place major league clubs, the New York Yankees in the American League and the New York Giants in the National League, seem out of the running. The Yankees are ten games behind the Athletics and missing on several cylinders. The Giants are six and onehalf games behind the Robins and trying to stay in the race with a hopeless pitching staff.

Six games in the lead and with fifty-five games to play, the Athletics seem capable of coasting home to their second pennant. Returning home from a sensational road trip, during which they won seventeen games and lost only seven, the Athletics have seven games with the Senators and Yankees, their closest rivals, before opening a twenty-one-game home stand. If the Athletics can hold their own in these odd games against Washington and New York, Connie Mack’s machine is not likely to be ousted from the lead again this year. Nat Sluggers Fail Washington’s collapse on its westen trip about settled the fate of the Senators.. They lost twelve out of nineteen games in the west, and were buffeted around by three second division clubs —the Browns, Tigers and White Sox. Walter Johnson’s great pitching staff has been unable to carry the team along without any help from the Senators’ slumping batters. The schedule heavily favors the Athletics the rest of the race, Philadelphia having thirty-four games at home and twenty-one on the road and Washington having twenty-eight at home and twentynine on the road. Brooklyn departed from Ebbets field today after a long home stand with a two-game lead over the Cubs. The Robins have two games at Boston, four at Philadelphia and then return home for four games against the Giants before going away for their final western trip of twenty games. Reds Harass Cubs Still harassed by the Cincinnati Reds, the Cubs returned to Wrigley field today after a successful road trip, during which they won thirteen games and lost twelve. During their eastern invasion the Cubs won eleven, making a better record than did either the Giants or Robins at home. The Giants and Robins each won nine and lost eight against the western invaders. Cincinnati’s continued supremacy over the Cubs threatens to seriously menace Chicago’s pennant hopes if the Reds continue to work their jinx. The Reds have won the last five games from the Cubs and have won eight out of twelve this season. A double-header was scheduled between them at Chicago today. Chicago has fifty-eight games left to play, thirty-three at home and twenty-five abroad and Brooklyn has sixty to play, thirty-two at home and twenty-eight abroad.

Frenchmen Again Take Tennis Cup Lott, Tilden Beaten by Borotra, Cochet in Singles Tilts. BY JOHN WHITE L’nited Press Staff Correspondent PARIS. July 28.—For the third successive year. France has withstood successfully the challenge of the United States for the historic E) aV j s ctiPa Winning both singles matches Sunday, Jean Borotra and Henri Cochet made the final count 4 to 1 in favor of France, amidst scenes of tremendous enthusiasm in Roland Garros stadium. Borotra defeated George Lott of Chicago after one of the hardest I fought battles in Davis cup history, 5- 6-3, 2-6, 6-2 and 8-6, and Cochet won easily over William T. Tilden, 4-6, 6-3, 6-1 and 7-5. Lott Shines The defeat was as sound and convincing as any ever administered to the United States in a Davis Cup challenge round since 1911, when the Australians were invincible in the tennis world. But while the Americans were beaten, they found some solace in the great fight put up by George Lott in tiie deciding singles match Sunday, a match packed with as thrilling, desperately contested tennis as the big stadium at Auteuil ever has known. The Chicago boy, facing a man whom he never had been able to defeat, with the knowledge that possession of the Davis Cup depended upon him, carried the battle to Borotra with dash and brilliance. Tilden Uninspired The concluding singles match between Tilden and Cochet was dull by comparison and anti-climatic. With no incentive to win, since Borotra’s victory over Lott had clinched the Davis cup for France, “Big Bill” played good, but uninspired tennis, his erratic temperament entirely under control. The complete scores of the 1930 challenge round follow: W. T. Tilden <U S) D. Jean Borotra (F), ' Henri’Cochet S (F) D. George Lott (US). 6 Henri” Cochet and Jacoues Brugnon (/> D.

Young Stribling

Bu United Press LONDON, July 28. Another claimant to the world’s heavyweight boxing championship will be developed tonight when Young Stribling of Georgia and Phil Scott of England meet in a ten-round heavyweight bout at Wimbledon stadium. Stribling is a favorite, but there is little betting on the outcome, although Lloyd’s has offered odds of 2 and 2M to 1 that the Georgian will win. No provisions have been made to prevent the bout from ending in a foul. The last time Stribling appeared here he lost to Primo Carnera on a foul. Scott has either won on a foul or claimed foul in his last half dozen bouts, Metzler Has Big Bat Day Bu United Press ST.

More Bad Luck for Hapless Tribe as Injuries Pile Up Indians Lose Sunday After Staging Spectacular Rally; Free Game for Women and Children Tonight.

BY EDDIE ASH Two more Tribe games went to the bowwows over the week-end as the Columbus Senators w'on Saturday night, 7 to 2, and repeated on the Sabbath afternoon, 12 to 11. The Sunday defeat was a real blow to the home fans, for it came after the Indians staged a sensational rally in the third and scored eight runs after two down. With the score 6 to 0, Columbus, Cicero walked and Connolly daringly bunted with two out when he caught the enemy infiield asleep. Bud beat the throw to first and the fun was on. Six hits intermingled with two walks followed, Dutch Kemner was knocked off the Columbus mound and altogether it was a display of a losing club coming to life. Another Tribe marker scored in the fourth, bringing the Tribe lead to 9 and 6, but in the sixth Ambrose weakened, Narlesky and Cicero miscued and Columbus scored twice. Ambrose relieved Cvengros in the second. Mike was wild and was batted hard. Ambrose was bumped off in the eighth and Burwell went in, and two Columbus runs in the eighth and ninth ruined the home nine again, though a last-inning Tribe rally got two runs. Burwell contributed to the downfall by a bad throw on an easy out in the first half of the ninth. Old Earl Smith was poison to the Indians with a home run, single and double, driving in four runs. The former Minneapolis veteran also walked twice and crossed the plate three times himself. In other, words, Earl was worth seven runs Sunday. He whacked out a home run with two mates aboard off Mike Cvengros in the second. It was a crippled lineup that Manager Corriden was compelled to use Saturday and Sunday. Barn•lart and Hoffman were unable to start either game owing to injuries and Monahan also was on the hospital list Sunday. Asa result the
