Yankees Muff Three Chances to Close Gap New Yorkers Boot Golden Opportunity; Deans Are Beaten. By Vmit'4 Pm* NEW YORK. Sept. 4—The New York Yankees, unlike the busy little bee. have failed to Improve each shining hour—tn tact, they failed to improve about a half dozen of them, and as a result they probably have booted their last chance to overhaul the pace-setting Detroit Tigers in the American League flag race. Three times over the week-end the Yanks had opportunities laid in their lape Twice out of three times they muffed. The first was Sunday, when they lost to Washington while the Tigers were dropping a 1-0 shutout to Mel Harder of Cleveland. The last two chances were yesterday, when they split a double bill with Philadelphia. Detroit was rained out in Chicago. (lomfi Wins No. 24 Lefty Gomez gave the Yankees a start yesterday by accrediting to himself his twenty-fourth victory of the year. 11 to 7. helped by Babe Ruth's homer. The Yanks declined to profit by the lesson and tossed away the second one, 10 to 3. Cleveland kept a tight hold on third place, beating St. Louis twice, 9 to 5 and 6 to 4 Monte Pearson presided in the opener, giving six hits, fanning seven and walking seven, as well as scoring two runs with a homer in the first. George Blaeholder was ushered out in the first chukker of the second game. Averill and Troskv of Cleveland and Campbell of St. Louis hit homers. Boston got half a double-header off Washington. 6-3. and then had to stage a two-run rally in the eighth to gam an even break in the second game, 4 to 4, before rain washed them out in the eighth. Dean Brothers Plastered St Lours took a disastrous doublewallop from Pittsburgh, dropping the Cards into a tie with Chicago in the National League, six games behind the Giants. The Pirates won 12 to 2 and 6 to 5. knocking out Paul Dean in the opener and Dizzy Dean in the ninth inning of the second game. Chicago likewise lost its opportunity to gam a game on the Giants, getting no better than an even split with Cincinnati. Gabby Hartnett's homer paved the way to victory in the first. 6 to 3, but the Reds wiped out a four-run lead in the seventh heat of the nightcap and won. 6 to 4. Boston tacked a double licking on the Brooklyn Dodgers, 1 to 0 and 4to 2. Ray Benge was the early victim, losing a four-hit game while Fred Frankhouse was holding the Dodgers to six safeties. Five Brooklyn boners helped the Flatbush Fu&ileers lose the nightcap. Three were by Johnny McCarthy, rookie first baseman. Hack Wilson Given Release by Phillies By I nitid Prtn* PHILADELPHIA. Sept. 4—After being with the Phillies for less than a month. Hack Wilson, veteran outfielder and holder of the National League home run record, was given his unconditional release today.

Tie on a light leader and a large and fuzzy hackle fly.

The lure of hidden spring holes far back m the marshes at the head waters of a well-known Michigan trout stream was too much for W. F. Sully and he hid to make just one more trip before the season ended. His guide promised quantities of brook trout in these secret pools. m m Members of the pike family are better daytime feeders than the bass. Try for them with spoon-lures and frogs, when the sun is hot. n m m Stop worrying about the phases of the moon. On a recent night trip on White river. Jack Wendling took the limit betwen 10 and 12 and then only from places where a full moon shone on the water. This may ruin a pet theory, but there are no laws to the darned sport anyhow. mum The surface lure is coming back into its own as the days grow shorter. . . . Bass are not so particular as to shape or color either. amtt CHALK up another convert to the idea that a river-raised bass is a better fighter than the trout. He still is a bit ashamed of the change in his allegiance and won't let me use his name, but he admits that a two-pound Tippecanoe small mouth outfought any fish he ever has hooked. And he has taken many fine trout in all parts of the country. ana Hardy Brothers, the great English tackle making firm, put out a catalog that should have a place on your

shelf of angling masterpieces. If you don't think that the Johnny Bull* take their fishing seriously, a perusal of this 440-page tome will put you right. One item that they list is a series of specially strong hooks for dorado, mahseer and tiger fish. It seems that these playful little fellows will chew up and swallow any ordinary equipment. Another necessary gadget is a knee pad. made of grained cowhide. A great protection for boots or waders when kneeling on wet grass, gravel or loose sand, the catalog assures you. Price 9 6 each. And. of course, there's the “priest,” that little weighted blackjack-like weapon used to administer the final ‘ rites” to trout or salmon. ana THE fall fishing will be upon us before we know it. Many anglers contend that it's the best of all. Emil Deluse is one of the believers. He caught his five-pounder last year in Flat Rock after most of the boys had put away their rods for the winter. If you just have to fish in cold weather the Wabash is recommended. Muddy most of the year, it clears up after a freeze or two and a fat minnow in a deep eddy usually will provoke a strike. Bon Aspv tells of fishing from a high bridge near Logansport and pulling in several dandies last December. a a a LAST Wednesday just at dusk Ernest Spinner, employed in the optical department at Block’s, threw a black “jigillo” into the fast water at the head of a pool in Eagle creek near Clermont and had one of those once-in-a-lifetime strikes that puts the blood pressure up too high for safety. After a slashing, dogged fight lasting ten minutes, he lifted out a large mouth that probably remembers when the railroad bridge was built. Two ounces less than six pounds, the scales proclaimed.

Cronin was unable to accompany his team mates to St. Louis, but will rejoin them after several days. Physicians said there was no chance he would be able to play baseball until next year. The accident in which the break occurred came in the seventh inning. Cronin hit down the first baseline and first baseman Eddie Morgan went into right field to cover the ball. Wes Ferrell, Red Sox pitcher, came over to first base. Cronin, trying to beat the throw to the sack, collided with Ferrell. He somersaulted to the ground, lighting on his wrist. Although he managed to finish the last two innings of the game, he was rushed to the hospital as soon as physicians examined the wrist. A1 Schacht, coach, will manage the team until Cronin’s return.
