CUBS TRIP CARDS IN WEIRD GAME TO RETAIN LEAD
Grimm m Uses 20 Players in 11-9 Triumph
Dizzy Called In to Protect ‘Lead, Is Charged With The Defeat.
<
By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW: YORK, June 30.—The Chicago Cubs still held the fort in the National League today—but that doesn’t tell half the story.
Charlie Grimm ‘had to comman‘deer almost every player in the Chicago ranks before the Cubs turned back the charge of the St. Louis Cardinals in a wild and wool‘ly battle, 11-9. During the threehour struggle, in which the lead changed hands four times, the Cubs used 20 of their 22 players, only Pitcher Curt Davis and Rookie Dutch Meyer failing to get into the game. At the finish the Cubs had a pitcher, Roy Parmelee in the game as a pinch-runner, an outfielder, Augie Galan, playing shortstop, and 4 third string catcher, John Bottarini, playing left fisld. Grimm used six—Carleton, Bryant, Shoun, Lee, French and Root—of his eightman pitching staff before the Cubs finally triumphed with two out in the ninth.
Diz Charged With Loss
With two down and the great Dizzy Dean on the mound, the Cards had the game all but won, 9-8. Then Billy Herman singled for his fourth hit, and Gabby Hartnett, who had a perfect day at bat—four for four— crashed a double, driving in Herman with the tying run. Cavarretta walked and Marty beat out a hit, filling the bases, but Parmelee instead of holding third broke for the plate. Mickey Owen dropped the throw and Parmelee, ex-Cardinal, scored the winning run. Cavarretta also started home, and scored when Durocher’s throw hit him in the back. Dean, who had been rushed into the game to protect the Cards’ onerun lead in the ninth, fanned the first two men to face him, but before the Cubs got through he was charged with his seventh defeat. Charlie Root, who pitched the last one and one-third innings, was the Cubs’ winning pitcher. The New York Giants moved into second place by nosing out the Phillies, 4-3 in 10 innings. McCarthy's single scored Ripple with the winning run. Pirates Grab Pair
Pittsburgh won a double-header from Cincinnati, 2-1 and 13-6, and moved within three games of the top. The Boston Bees won a 12-inning game from Brooklyn, 1-0, with Lou Fette besting Max Butcher in a tight pitching duel. A weird decision enabled the New York Yankees to trim the Philadelphia Athletics, 3-2, and maintain their three-game lead in the American League. With the score tied, 2-2, in the ninth a runner on third and two out, pingh-hitter Charlie Ruffing grounded to second baseman Ambler who threw to Finney at first and Umpire Sumners called him out. The Yankees protested and after a consultation with Um-pire-in-Chief Dineen, the decision was reversed—Ruffing was called safe and the run scored. The Athletics refused to take the field until Connie Mack told them to. Later Mack announced that he did not protest the reversal of the decision. The only two runs made off Edgar Smith, rookie southpaw, until the ninth were homers by Selkirk—No: 17—and Dickey. Lary Gets Three Blows
Monte Stratton held Detroit to three hits and the Chicago White Sox held second place with a 3-2 triumph over the third-place Tigers. Lyn Lary and the Cleveland Indjans to a 7-5 victory over the St) Louis Browns. Lary made three of Cleveland's 13 hits and Hale’s homer and double drove in three runs. Washingion and Boston battled to a 2-2 tie in 12 innings, the game being called on account of darkness. The Red Sox made two runs in the second when Jimmy Foxx hit his 14th homer with Cronin on base. The Senators tied it in the ninth when Bluege’s single, a walk to Hill and Lewis’ bunt filled the bases. Kuhel walked, forcing in a run, and then Stone forced Kuhel at second to score the tying run. Grove went the Route for the Red Sox, allowing eight hits. Weaver, Linke and Appleton for the Senators allowed seven hits.
Yesterday's Hero—Lou Fette, Boston Bees’ 30-year-old rookie who pitched 12 scoreless innings against Brooklyn, and then won his own game with a single which drove in the only run of the game.

The country’s outstanding athletes, more than 300 of them, are ex-
sentatives of athletic clubs or schools, or unattached. Strongest team delegations will be sent by the New York Athletic Club, defending champion, and the San - Francisco Olympic Club. Daniel J. Ferris, national secretary of the A. A. U., has announced that the first three men in each event here will be the United States representatives in ‘a meet with South and Central American stars in the Pan-American games at Dallas, July 15-18. He also made known that athletes will be chosen here for tours this summer to Japan, Germany, Sweden, France, England and Finland. As a result of all these inducements, one of the greatest fields in the history of A. A. U. competition is expected to invade the Marquette arena. Many brilliant standouts— Olympic stars, national champions and world record holders—have indicated they will be present. Peacock in Sprints
The sprints already include the names of Eulace Peacock, Bobby Packard, Marty Glickman, Ben Johnson, Bobby Grieve, Sam Stoller and Robert Rodenkirchen, all of whom have been in the athletic limelight for a year or more. In the hurdles will be such standouts as Forrest G. (Spec) Towns, Fritz Pollard Jr., Robert Osgood and Sammy Allen. The middle distances will include Johnny Woodruff, Stan Birleson, Charley Beetham, Elroy Robinson, Ross Bush and many more. : The distance runs, especially the 1500-meter race, are shaping up as classics with the prospective appearances of such famous names as Cunningham, San Romani, Venzke, Fenske, Deckard and, possibly, Lash. Field events are expected to reach a new high in American competition with particularly brilliant performances due in the pole vault, high
| jump, discus and javelin throw.
Third Time as Host City
The meet will mark the third time that Milwaukee has been host to the national championships. They were first conducted here in 1903 at the old State Fair Park, and again in 1934 at the Hilltop Stadium. Three world records and six other new meet marks were established here three years ago. Arrangements have been made to divide the championships into three big shows. Senior and junior finals of the 10,000-meter run and junior

J ohnson Due
To Pitch for Tribe Tonight
Indians Drop Second to Brewers, 6-2, for Fourth Straight Loss.
Manager Wade Killefer was expected to call upon Lloyd Johnson for mound duty tonight in the hope that he could get the Indians back into the winning column as the Tribe prepared for their third clash with the Milwaukee Brewers. The Tribesmen last night dropped their second tilt of the series to Al Sothoron’s team, 6 to 2. It was their fourth straight defeat. The Indians got men on the paths but for the most part they were left stranded when the Tribe sluggers failed to come through. Al Milnar, Brewer southpaw, was effective in the pinches and particularly had the Indian sign on Ox Eckhardt, who has been in a batting slump for several games. OX was yanked in the ninth last night for Bill Lewis after Kahle had tripled to start what looked like a belated rally. Kahle scored on Phillips’ infield out, but that was the extent of the scoring. The Brewers scored in the first two innings and again in the fifth and ninth. The Indians scored one in the fifth and their other marker in the ninth. Ralph Winegarner or Forest Presnell is scheduled to hurl tonight for the Brewers. In his last appearance, Saturday, Johnson pitched a shutout against the Kansas City Blues. The Brewers will windup their staye here tomorrow night.

Winning the two first falls, Walter Podolak, 222, New York, was declared the winner of the feature match with Juan Humberto, 219, City of Mexico, in the heavyweight wrestling show held last night in the Sports Arena.

C,, in eight minutes with a drop kick, and the masked Red Devil, 218, won| over Vern Baxter, 230, Montreal, in 16 minutes with a body slam. Everett Marshall has been signed for next week’s show, which will be held Wednesday night instead of Tuesday.

White Hope Hunt Is On, So Mac Supplies Some Helpful Hints.
By HENRY M’LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent EW YORK. June 30.—Figuring, I suppose, that because I once operated a hope chest shop on the Cape of Good Hope that I must know everything about such matters a Middle Westerner named Fred Little has written me for full information on how to conduct a white hope hunt.
hope season was opened a week ago when Joe Louis bepped Jimmy Braddock on the profile with a right hand so authoritative that it caused an immediate transfer of fisticuffs’ most treasured’ prize, the heavyweight championship. on I gain from brother Little’s let-
than draped the royal purple about his shoulders and gone out for a kingly mess of pork chops than he (Little) began the organization of a white hope hunt.: The first item in his questionnaire concerned the proper clothes for a white hope hunt. Were pith ‘helmets advisable? Would he need hip boots? A snake kit? The best way to answer this is to describe the costume worn by James J. Johnston of Madison Square Garden, when that intrepid . explorer was on the trail of a white hope.
E- 2 ”n E dragged in some beautiful specimens in his day, and he never wore any fancy rig. His favorite costume was a black derby, a pinch-backed suit, and a pink shirt with tie, handkerchief, socks, and eyes to match. Little also wanted to know just how one could distinguish a white hope. Well, all I can say is that one had better be able to distinguish them because they certainly won't distinguish themselves. Without getting too specific, a white hope can be spotted from these general characteristics: 1. A lumbering, painful gait similar to that employed -by elephants whose shoes hurt. 2, A slight sag to the lower. jaw, and ears set at half mast. 3. A vocabulary in which the dominant words are “huh,” “glub,” and “uh.” 4. A tendency to fall backward whenever exposed to anything more violent than the impact caused by the switching on of a light. 5. A fondness for sleeping on canvas.

Times Special BASS LAKE, Ind. June 30.—Midshipmen of the Gridley Naval Camp will celebrate the Fourth of July with a varied program of athletic events’ and fireworks. A field and track day under the ‘direction of Lieut. Harry Painter is to feature the Sunday program with every boy scheduled for action in one or more events. Sailboat and rowing races will be under the supervision of Comm. C. L. White, camp head, with Chief Bruce ‘ Gribben acting as official starter. Swimming and diving events will be under the direction of Ensign Frank Welton, National Red Cross swimming examiner. A large crowd of parents and friends are expected. 2 Since the opening of the fishing season the middies have been after the elusive finny tribe with more than usual success. Midshipman Chief Red McGirr of South Bend has caught the largest fish to date, a big wall-eyed pike. Runnerup honors go to Harry and John Bryan who caught a string of ringtail perch, sufficient for a fish dinner for 35 members of the camp. The fishe ing this season is reported the best in the history of the camp.
