AGE SEVEN CINCINNATI SHUT OUT; MORAN PICKS LUQUE TO STOP RED SLIDE

'THE RICHMOJTD PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM. RICHMOND, IND.. MONDAY, AUG. 16, 1920

CHICAGO, Aug. 16. Senor Adolfo Luque has been named by Manager Pat Moran to stop the Cub rush and the Red slide. The Senor has not failed Moran this season, so it is moro than probable the Red losing: streak will not continue to the usual three games. Hippo Vaughn, however, probably will be hard on the heels of the Senor. The second shut-out in two dayj was shoved into the noses of the Reds, Sunday afternoon, by Pitcher George Tyler. Jimmy Ring was in (treat form, and except for an unlucky break would have escaped being scored on. The 1 to 0 score won for I he Cubs, however as the Reds could not get a man to third base. Only two got as far as the second sack The Reds have played 18 innings without the semblance of a run. Alex ander gave them 4 hits in Saturday's 5 to 0 fracas and Tyler was equally stingy in Sunday's game. The latter game should have gone on the Red side, as Jimmy Ring pitched one of (he best games of the season. The score: CINCINNATI AB. R. H. O. A. E.

STARRS ARE CRUSHED BY NATCO WHIRLWIND 1920 Saturday afternoon baseball ended Saturday afternoon when the Starr Piano team was crushed by the Natcos at Exhibition Park. The latter team played real baseball but the score would have been held within reason if the Starrs has played baseball. As it was, the official scorer showed the Natcos had slammed 17 hits for 18 runs while the Starrs made six, hits for three runs. Mike Knott, Natco third baseman, got two home runs, a triple and a single in six times up. Don Byrkett, first sacker, was the only member of the Piano team that played real baseball. He made two snappy catches of fout flies and cut in with a home run and two singles out of three times to bat.

MOGULS MAY GRANT SCHEDULE EXTENSION Prospects of a three cornered fight for the baseball championship of Wayne county between the winner of the Suburban league, the Richmond Giants and Richmond Eagles, will be taken up at a confab of Suburban league moguls in the Y. M. C. A., Tuesday night. An extension of schedule will probably be made as great interest in the fight between Centerville and Eldorado is being shown by fans. SELECT VAUDEVILLE

PENTATHLON ON OLYMPIC BOARDS TODAY; FINNS BREAK WORLD JAVELIN RECORD

(By Associated Press) ANTWERP, Aug. 16 The classic Pentathlon five tests of strength, speed and 6kill which the athletes of ancient Greece thought showed the measure of a man was attempted today in the Olympic stadium. These tests were: 200 meter run, 1500 raster run, running broad jump, throwing the discus and throwing the javelin. Of all the athletes who entered, the man who made the best showing in all was to win, instead of the laurel wreath of the ancients, the Olympic gilt medal and statuette and was to have the honor of having his name inscribed on the tablet of the statuette Olympicchallenge offered by the king of Sweden which was won in Stockholm in 1912 by F. R. Bie, of Norway. Each nation was permitted to enter six men, of whom only four were to be actual competitors. The modern Pentathlon, which has been designed to cover the competitions that modern times might consider more fitting to show the measure of a present-day all around athlete or soldier, consists of five entirely different events: Rapid pistol fire at 25 meters, 300 meters swimming, sword fencing, a 5,000 meter cross country race on horseback and a 4,000 meter race across country on foot.

competitions for this are to begin Aug. 24. Wrestling Competition Begins- , Preliminaries in the Greco-Roman Olympic wrestling competitions began today at the Hall of Fetes, at the Antwerp zoological gardens where all of the mat and ring events of the games are to be held. In ord-er not to conflict with the athletic events at the stadium, the remainder of these contests are to be held in the evening. Each nation is permitted three, entrants, with only two actual competitors, however, in each of the five categories of weights. In addition to the Olympic medals offered for all weights the heavies are to compete for the challenge cup offered by the Gold and

Silversmith's Corporation now held by Saarela of Finland. The establishment of a new world's javelin hurling record, in which Finnish throwers won the first four places, and the placing of every American entered in all the other preliminary contests, featured the opening of the contests Sunday. Myrra, winner of the javelin event, added .14 meters to the record of 60.64 meters made by E. V. Lemming -of Sweden in the Stockholm games of 1912. In addition, the next four finalists in the event all exceeded Lemming's throw. The Americans did well in their morning work with the javelin, when there were no Finnish contestants, but failed to keep pace with the first six in the afternoon. In the high jump, 100-meter dash, 400-meter hurdles and 800-meter run, all the Americans qualified against classy fields. J. V. Scholz, University of Missouri; Loren Murchison, New York A. C and Charles W. Paddock, Los Angeles A. C, made the best time, 10 4-5 seconds. M. M. Kirksey, Olympic Club, San Francisco, covered the distance in 11 seconds. The twelve heats were contested, the first two runners in each heat qualifying for the semi-finals. Alex Ponton, of Ontario, Canada, was second in his heat. All four American half-milers qualified in the 800-meter run, although none of them was first. Earl Eby, Chicago A. A., ran third in the second heat, trailing B. G. D. Rudd of South Africa, the winner, and Hill of Great Britain, who was second. Eby set a fast pace- in the first half of the race after which Rudd drew away to win slowing up. Eby let Hill take second place. The time, 1 minute 55 seconds, j was the best of all the heats. Lieut. D. M. Scott, United States; army; Thomas Campbell, Yale uni-: yereity, and A. B. Sprott, Los Angeles ! A?'-C, finished second in their heat3 without extreme effort. I M. S. Angiers of the Illinois A. C, was seventh in the elimination sec-1 tions of the javelin throwing event ! C I with a throw of 59.27 meters, and J. , C. Lincoln Jr. of the New York A. C. was ninth with 57.81 meters. ! International Harvester Co. Beats Asylum Folks The I. H.

TIGHTEST FINISHES IN HISTORY, EXPECTED IN MAJOR CIRCUITS

A three cornered race with the pos sibility of a new leader each day is on in both major baseball leagues and ; promises the closest finish in years. I Brooklyn yesterday regained the Nauonai lpauersmp iobv m biuuuuau last Thursday. The SuVei bas won a 12-inning game yesterday from Philadelphia while the Reds were held to four hits and no runs by Tyler of Chicago. New York failed to take advantage of Cincinnati's defeat, dividing two games with Boston. Recruit Proves the Goods. With first place at stake, Cleveland tried Clark, a recruit, on the mound today, and he shut out St. Louis with four hits. The Spokemen who lost four straight to New York at Cleveland last week, will play the Yankees in a three-game series starting today. Chicago went into second place ahead of New York yesterday by defeating Detroit while the Yankees were beaten by Washington. It was Senators' first victory in 11 games. The Cincinnati Nationals regained some lost ground last week by taking four games out of five from Bos ton, through heavy batting, but the j Red pitchers were far from champ-, ionship form. The Brooklyn twirlers j also were unsteady. New York is play-! ing first class baseball behind steady pitching. Cardinals Have Good Week.
