HOLDING TO TOP OF POLE, REDS JOURNEY WEST TO CHICAGO

Enron te between Boston and Chicago, Aug. 13. The Reds In first place position they assumed by the 11 inning 6 to 6 defeat of Bqston Thursday, while Brooklyn received a Cub walloping, will open a four game series with the Chicago Cubs at Chicago Saturday. The team is In fine fettle and expects to remain In the front hole for the rest of the season. The coming week will probably be a hard . drag, however, as the Cubs and Ptrates can be counted upon to offer Btrenuous opposition. l: Thursday's victory was " a thriller from the start. The Braves took a ""Ing to Eller's elants In the first In-.a.-' Scott held the Reds scoreless urttll the fourth when Eddie Roush accounted for one run. Four hits and a walk netted four runs for our side in the sixth. It now appeared as though the game would be won within the regulation time as Eller was breezing along in fine form. Sicking wobbled In the ninth, however, and three straight hits for two runs resulted. Luque relieved Eller and held the Braves until Daubert scored on Oroh's double in the 11th inning. The score: The 8core. CINCINNATI AB. R. IB. PO. A. E. Groh, 3b Daubert, lb . . . Roush, cf Duncan. If .... Kopf, ss Neale, rf Sicking, 2b Wingo. c Eller, p Luque, p

RAMBLERS OF CAPITAL FACE EAGLES SUNDAY The Indianapolis Ramblers will oppose the Richmond Eagles at Exhibition park, Sunday afternoon, according to Everette Haas, Eagle manager. The Ramblers are supposed to represent the cream of semi-pro baseball talent of Indianapolis. The Indianapolis Reserves and Merits had strong lineups but the Eagles had little difficulty in eliminating them. Fandom is confident the same treatment will be accorded the Ramblers. Russ Hawekotte probably will hurl Sunday's game. He pitched against the Rushvllle Tail Lights and won easily. He permitted but five hits. The rest of the Eagles lineup will be unchanged.

WHERE BABE CARRIES HIS WONDERFUL DRIVING POWER WHEN

SAMPAN

Babe Ruth can drive a baseball further than any other man who ever carried a bat to the plate. RAG-CHEW CONTEST TO COLUMBUS, 12-0 They chewed the rag, argued, spluttered, fussed and waited for it to quit raining, but after three long, dreary hours, it was found that Columbus had defeated Richmond, 12 to 0, at Exhibition park Thursdav afternoon. Every decision by the umpires brought forth a howl of protest from Columbus. That is, until after the fifth inning. After that, the arguments ceased somewhat. Millay, hurling for Columbus, held the locals to three Bingles. Tom Fitzgibbons singled In the sixth. Runnels almost had a triple, but cut first baso and it didn't count. Dunn got a single In the seventh. Two triples, seven doubles and five singles accounted for the 12 Columbus runs. Five errors and two walks helped some. The score follows: Columbus.

The final 36 hole in the national open golf championship were played today at Inverness, deciding who is tc wear the crown won last year at .,oston by Walter Hagen, of Detroit. Hagen, defending his title, was among the nine contenders scoring 150 or better for the first 36 holes, being only two strokes behind the leader in the first day's play. Jock Hutchinson, of Chicago, who scored 69-76-145. So close was the contest for leadership yesterday that Leo Diegel, of Chicago, and James Barnes, of St. Louis, were only one stroke behind Hutchinson and Hagen shared hts score, 147, with the two British invaders, Harry Vardin and Edward Ray. Eddie Loos, another Chicagolan, had 149 strokes on his record at the start of today's play, while Chick Evans, former national champion and Bob McDonald, of Chicago, had 150 each' The leading eastern contender at the beginning of today's rounds was Willie MacFarlane, of New York, who scored 151 for the first half. Bobby Jones, of Atlanta, southern champion, led the southern contingent with 152, the same score recorded for the southwestern p'ayer, William Mekl Horn, of Tulsa. Okla., and Jack Burke, of the northwest. Professionals who have followed golf tournaments for years, predicted ibat the total score of the winner would not be more than 10 strokes under 300, and a duplication of Hutchinson's score for the first half would make 230. He could easily cut a couple strokes off this figure as ho cover?d the two qualifying rounds in 72-C0-141. Italy has some 4 800.000 lmon tres, which produce 1.200,000,000 lemons a year.

WERE IN LOVE? 8REHM TO ATTEND SUBURBAN CONTEST ' To try to prevent the usual Suburban league custom of making life miserable for the umpires. President George Brebm. of the Suburban league, will attend the Centervllle-Eldorado game at Centerville Sunday afternoon. This game will probably bring out the largest crowd of the season. Since its reorganization, Centerville has .the strongest team in the league on paper. Eldorado has not lost a game all season and intends to contlnueits winning streak at the expense of Centerville. Eldorado rooters have made plans to have an auto parade of rooters at Centerville Sunday. Naturally feeling will be high. Thus the presence of Brehm -as peacemaker. Feeling will probably run high at the New Madison-Whitewater scrap' at Whitewater. These teams are about evenly matched and equally hard on umpires. Lynn appears to have a big edge on the scrap with Boston at Lynn Sunday.

SPORTING GOODS RISE AGAIN An average increase averaging 15 per cent, in all lines of sporting goods, this fall, over last year's prices, will make it hard on the athletic world of Richmond.
