Talking It OVER BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, July B.—There have been complaints from the customers that I have been neglecting baseball In this column. As for that, I say tish, and to be sure there is no misunderstanding, I add a resolute tosh. Why, I love the game. To me it is the grand old national pastime. Or at least it was before the grand old national pastime became a proposition of trying to borrow two bucks till Saturday. X had It in me to be a big leaguer. •nSui 110 d lll l nat totnat o *nd go get mat aoole. Poi> Anson wanted me lor the old m n, . c £f° ' Vn L u a i ockln ?* "You are a Jin* in the rough, he tala.

They have been nudging h m at the plate, making funny faces at him and calling him mean names. So Dlckev stood all he could and when he could stand no more he hauled off and smacked Reynolds—and according to the owner of the Washington ball club he. him when he wasn’t looking.

You don’t want to pay too much attention to McCarthy. He’s worse than Colonel Jacob Ruppert. He wouldn’t feel any too safe if his Yankees were twenty games ahead, with only twenty more to play. At that, the Yankees are In no position to let the bat boy swing for Ruth, though there have been times this season when it might not have been a bad idea. They are still six and a half games in front, and Dickev certainly isn’t or wasn’t the whole ball club. That voung fellow Jorgens didn’t exactly ssuggest an escape of sewer gas back of the plate vesterdav. The truth Is the Yankees had begun to slip a bit before Dickev doubled off the Washington outfielder’s law. Thev dropped a game to the second place Detroits Thursday due to bad pitching. That’s the Yankees' trouble now—bad pitching. And if thev keep on getting bad pitching thev are going to drop some more. How’s that for crystal, blue white, deepdown logic. Mr. Socrates?

Bolen Puzzles Blues and Tribesmen Climb Indians Wallop Kaws Again in ‘lnsomnia League' and Move Within Half Game of Lead; Wingard and Taitt Are Prominent Under Lights. By Time* Special KANSAS CITY, Mo., July B.—Creeping up! The Indians of Emmet McCann made it two straight over the Cowboy Blues here Thursday night in the “insomnia league” by winning. 6 to 1, and the victory boosted the Hoosiers to within one-half game of the American Association lead as Ownie Bush’s Millers fell before the Toledo Hens in a close tilt at Minneapolis. It was a great game to win in the tight race on account of the fact the Tribe was the lone member of the first division to finish on the long end Thursday. The Indians and Blues will meet in the third struggle under the lights tonight at 8:30 and on Saturday the series will be brought to a close with an afternoon tilt. The McCann pastimers hit in the pinches Thursday and instead of Hoosiers being left stranded on the sacks they found various ways to get over that old home plate six times. Southpaw Bolen operated on the Tsibe mound and he dished ’em up in such puzzling fashion that the home nine was made to look foolish, scoring only once on eight safeties.

Lanky Ernie Wingard, playing first base, was a prominent factor in the success of the visitors. He poled a triple and single and chalked up the initial marker of the game in the second round when he bodneed a three-bagger off the left center field wall and crossed the rubber on Taitt’s single. ”Big Doug,” Tribe right-fielder, also was a thorn to the Blues by driving in two runs. Wingard and Taitt each poled two hits. Run No. 2 for the Indians was placed on the board in the third stanza on Fitzgerald's double, an out and Wingard's single. In the sixth Sammy Hale doubled, advanced on Wingard’s out and crossed the plate on a blow by Taitt. The lone tally for the Kaws was registered in the third when pitcher Dawson singled after' two down, Marquardt doubled and Treadaway beat out a hit in deep short. Entering the ninth with a lead of 3 to 1 the men of McCann sprouted more aggressiveness and took advantage of a K. C. letdown. Dawson hit Wingard and the rally was on.
