are out there with a lead of nearly eight games over the faltering tiiants. The Cincinnati crew lacks only one point of leading the league in batting and their pitchers have been going like a house afire. Six of them Reuther, l.uque. Sallee. Klier. Ring and Fisher rank among the leading ten hurlers of the league. On the field they have been playing a game almost sensational. That riffhting' Spirit. And In addition to that Vat Moran has filled the club with a world of fighting spirit as was evidenced Saturday at Philadelphia when they came to bat in the ninth Inning on the tail-end of a 3-to-0 score and pulled the bacon out cf the fire by scoring eight runs. By taking the series from the Giants, the Rubins, the Braves with a flying start on the Thlllics. it seems that the Reds are in line to get a record on their trip by taking every series. Their performance on this present trip has been hy far tha best in the league this year. 1

Keeping Up the Service WEATHER conditions, which mean little to most business enterprises, are of grave concern to the telephone business. The coming of a storm calls for the utmost vigilance on the part of those in charge of the telephone lines, in order that service may be maintained. The cost of repairing the telephone lines after a storm often reaches large figures. One sleet storm did damage in the Chicago suburban division which cost 399,914 to repair. Another cost $2 1,999. These expenses in addition to operating costs and to those caused by the ordinary wear and tear, make adequate rates imperative.

Chicago fans who watched Joe Welling in his first day s -workout at the Arcade gymnasium yesterday are so impressed with the local lad that they are willing to lay odds he will beat P.ichie Mitchell when the pair clashes in Benson Harbor Labor Day. Joe did little boxing, it being his first day in from New York, but he .showed so much stuff that they hail him as a contender for the championship. There were not a few who let 1t be known that they pick him to beat not only Mitchell but Charley White if they ever meet. It i? no secret that White has a wholesome regard for Welling. Joe will work here until Thursday evening, when he will go to the scene of battle and finish his work there. Mitchell wall come in from Milwaukee Wednesday, but will not linger, going right on to the battleground. Paddy Clancy and Tom Holderson. opponents in the sernl-windup, are also in hard training. Al Bloom will handje the tickets.

FUR WILL FLY IF MORAN AND GLEASON'S TEAMS PLAY IN WORLD'S SERIES

Brooks Automatic Repeating Phonograph (That wonderful home dailce machine.) ' THE MUSIC MART 151 State St., Hammond.

CINCINNATI. Aug. 26. From 1S31 to 1S94 Charley Comiskey, president of the Chicago Wihtt" Sox. probable contenders with the Reds for the world's championship this year, was manager of the Cincinnati team. Previous to that he had gained fame as first baseman of the famous St. Louis Browns, four-time pennant winners. Comlskey'8 friends say that no less than 1,000 rooters will come over with the team If they play the Reds for the title. No more popular man ever wore a uniform than "Ccmmy," and a large majority of the Queen City fans are hoping for him to drag down the American League honors, so that he can come back with his able lieutenant. Kid Gleason, to the spot where he won fame many years ago. Comiskey is delighted with the success of his old friend. Pat Moran. and wants to see him win the National pennant. The fur will fly if Moran and Gleason have an opportunity to put their respective teams against each other for the highest honor In baseball. Gleason was a former major league second baseman and pitcher. He Is considered one of the most astute managers in baseball. Gleason has been manager of the team only one season, succeeding Clarence Rowland, the man who piloted the White Sox to victory in the year of 1917. Pat Moran was a catcher under Frank Chance when the Chicago Cubs downed everything in the National League and won the pennant in 189J, 1897 and 1838. Chance predicted that Moran would prove a wonderful manager when he went out on his own hook, and this prediction came true. Tat won the National League pennant with Philadelphia, a very ordinary team in 1315. but they were not strong enough to draw down the. chief honors and were beaten by Pill Carrigan and his many time winners, the great Boston Red Sox. Moran is undoubtedly tha most popular man that ever managed the Reds and the whole of the Vnited States is talking about his wonderful success with the Reds.

ROMEO PITCHES GOOD GAME By X. GEORGE. Romeo, big southpaw- twirler of the Peerless A. C, administered the Harbor I Triangles a decisive defeat in the first' game of their series for the amateur j championship of the Twin Cities, last i Sunday in the form of two hits and ten' strikeouts. The Triahgles crossed the! home station but twice, and neither of the runs were earned. Fierock, who!

by the way, is the best man on the Harbor team and is a clever ball player, crossed the plate in the second inning when Edgar uncorked a wild heave over first. Fierock repeated the stunt in the ninth when Romeo tossed another one over the initial sack. Fierock also banged out one of the Harbor s two hits, the other being crcditcd'to Gant. The feature of the game was a barehanded, backward catch of a would-be home run knocked by Gant. same catch being engineered by Ralph Frank, neloVejsensational of the Peerless crew. After running fully thirty feet for the out-going sphere, he saw that it was going to rass high over his head, so he threw out his bare right hand and taking a high leap he caught the ball as his arm was coming down. The Peerless batsmen played havoc with Steffan? star moundsman of the Triangles pitching staff. Seven bingles. four of the extra base variety, were garnered off his Solome delivery, netting four markers before he was yanked in the sixth. Parnecka then took the burden of pitching upon his broad shoulders but even he was unable to stop the

Peerless. He was tapped for one hit and several long flies, resulting in one run and incidentally totaling five runs and eight hits for the game, which, according to the Kovle of baseball, is good palying. The two teams will meet again n'xt Sunday at the Last Chicago ball park to definitely decide" which is the amateur champion of the Ttn City. As the two teams are ery evenly matched a corking close gaim; is expected. Come out you fans of East Chicago and Indiana Harbor and sc the "only two teams" of the Twin City in their struggle to put their respective towns in th baseball limelight by winning the chai-t-pion&hip. Ten cents, one slim dime, is your tagged assurance that you are i follower of one of thces scrappy team". Score of game by innings: Peerless A. C. 0 0011201 P 5 Trinagles A. C. - 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1

WALTER Johnson tried to save the day for the Senators when he replaced Shaw- in the ninth with the bases full but hit a batsman and gave up a sin?K to Tobin which won for the Browns. GARRY HERRMAN has officially called the National Commission into session at Chicago next Tuesday to lay flans for the world's series. The call must have been sweet music to Garr 's ears.
