LUQUE HELPS. REDS TAKE SECOND GAME

i BROOKLYN. Aug. 23. Luque's flue work in the pinches enabled the Reds to win the second straight game frou the Dodgers at Ebbets Field, Monday afternon by the score of 7 to 5. The little Cuban pulled through many tight holes by some splendid hurling. The Reds scored all nheir runs m tha early innings off Ihe delivery of Cadore who retired in favor of Miljus. Luque got into trouble several times by his inability to locate the plate, but by some fine pitching he managed to pull through. In the eighth he passed two men filling the bases but did not allow them to score. In the ninth the Dodgers made a late rail? and with two men down and two runs across the plate, second and thlra occupied, he fanned Myers, who baa made two hits prior to this time. Reds Put Three Over The Red3 started the scoring early sending three runs over the plate in the first inning, by bunching three hits, only to bare the Dodgers tie up the count In the second. The Reds got busy in the fourth and fifth rounds and sewed up the game, scoring four runs on six hits. The Dodgers threatened In the ninth when they scored two runs on two hits and an infield out, but this was the best they eould do with the slants of Luque in this frame and the sid'5 was retired with the tieing runs on the bases.

The New York Yankees and the Cleveland Indians open a three-game series here today, the last of the season between the two teams on the local grounds. The world's champions were leading their eastern rivals by a game and a half. It was the third time this year they have met so closely bunched in the league standing that a game or two could change the lead. Previous to today. New York had won nine of the 15 games played with the Indians this season. However, they were more effective during the first two series when they won five out of eight games with scores of 46 to Cleveland's 40. Of the last seven games played Cleveland has won threp. storing 44 runs against New York's 40. Johnny Walker, first baseman of the Philadelphia Athletics who was injured by being hit in the head with a batted ball here last week, is able to leave the hospital. Ke probably will join his teammates the latter part of this week. EXPERT SHOTS MEET AT CHICAGO TUESDAY; SINGLE TARGETS LEAD (By Associated Press) CHICAGO. Aug. 23.

Clevclands defeat by Boston and New York's one-sided victory over St Louis, Monday, brought the Yanks within a game anda half of first place again. An irate fan who had watched the home team go down to defeat stopped the umpire as ne was leaving the park. "Where's your dog" he demanded. "Dog?" ejaculated His Umps. "I have no dog." "Well, you're the first blind man I ever saw who didn't have a dog," returned the disgruntled one. Umpire Charley Moran got into the same tort of a jam in a PhiladelphiaCincinnati game recently that made Charley Rigler famoulat-t year. R!gler ordered Milton Stock off the field in a game in St. Louis, but while he was ordering Stock made a play in the game. Then Rigler reversed his "order." Moran oidered Goldie Rapp out of a game in Philadelphia. While he was "ordering" Rixey pitched the ball. Rapp hit it for a single and landed safe cn rirt. Then Moran. with less tact than Rigler. chased Rapp off first and out of the lot. A runner w-as put in for Rapp. Query: If Rapp was order ed out. why was he allowed to hit and why was his hit counted after he had been rejected? National league umpires don't seem to take the trouble to suspend play while they are ejecting and arguing witn players, ana thus get into jambs that even Bill Brennan could dodge.

Crippled Mare Thought Dying Finds Health and Wins Fame Incog, Race Mare, Retired for Breeding Purposes, Becomes 111 Operations Seemed Futile Revived by Veteran Horse Owner, T. E. Christ.

Br FRAXK G. ME KB The most sensational race mare of the year is Incog, the seven year old daughter of OgdenMariti. And the story of how she came back after practically being condemned to death is one perhaos without parallel. Something like three years ago she was retired for breeding purposes. The record of her early career lacked lustre. She won a few races here and there but for the most part finished far back even when pitted against the cheapest of platers. With her first breeding she slipped a foal and nearly died afterward. Only a delicate operation saved her life. She was a long time convalescing. Then she was bred again and with a duplicate result. Seemed Hopeless Cripple. Following the second operation the mare seemed to be a hopeless cripple. The major portion of her internal organism had been cut or pierced by the surgeon's knife. For months afterward she was hardly able to stand. A Toronto sportsman named Daviesi owned her. Feeling that he had utilized every endeavor to save her life he had about decided that she should be destroyed rather than be forced to suffer longer. Preparations toward that end were under way when along came T. R. Crist, veteran horse owner. Just what uncanny judgment decided Crist that the mare's life not only could be saved but that she could be brought back to the races ever will remain a mystery. But anyway, Crist said to Davies: 'I'll take Incog off your hands and I'll trade you Fountain lay tor her." Deal Is Made The deal was made. Davies got Fountain Fay, a good race horse once, has-been now. And Crist got trie mare that was thought to be in a dying condition. Tenderly he had her transported to his barn, summoned a veterinarian and issued his orders. The second mystery in the IncogCrist case is what did the doctor do? No one knows except Crist and the doctor. But in a month Canadian turf men were startled by the sight of Incog galloping around the track in morning workouts. Carefully Crist nursed her along. He slowly increased her distance ana the pace. He coddled and petted the once-time cripple. And then he entered her in a race of a mile and an eighth against some of the top-notch selling platers breezing around thj tracks of Canada. Mare Proves Unbeatable Incog distanced her opposition anl won pulled up. A few days later Crist ran her again and once more she scored an impressive victory. She finished fourth in her third outing due to a miserable break at the barrier but since then the mare has been un beatable. She won three more clashes in Can ada and then was shipped to Sara toga. She made Snapdragon, Biff Bang and other near stake horses look like truck horses in her first start there. In her second, she whipped R. J. REYNOLDS Totcco Co. Wuuton-Salam, N. C

Night Raider and others. Since the "dying" mare made her comeback about nine week ago she has won seven out of her eight races. And her owner and his associates have cleaned up more than $150,000 on her In bets and in purses. Wins Big Odds. They alone knew that the mare was in wonderful condition. And they alone backed her in her earliest starts. The odds have ranged from 17 to 1 down, with the average odds around 5 to 1. A $5 bill parlayed on Incog's last five starts would have returned over $10,000. And Crist and the others have been parlaying a whole lot more than $5. The mare seem3 unconscious of distance. She can win at 6 furloughs, has won at a mile, a mile and a sixteenth, a mile and an eighth and a mile and a quarter. She can turn a mile in 1:38 at Saratoga with every asking and weight doesn't seem to bother her. The turf game records many cripples which have come back to add to their earlier glory. But is knows no horse like Incog, an ordinary racer in her yonth, then a cripple, then pre sumed to be dying and less than three months later the most amazing racer of them all.

Two unassisted double plays were made by Bos ton National players Barbare and1 Boeckel against Pittsburgh yester-j day. Boecked aided also in another double play. The Braves made a splendid up-hill battle in a vain attempt to overcome a 9 to 0 lead, outbatting Hamilton and Zinn, and scoring upon Carlson. Pittsburgh won fcy the score of 10 to 8. Boston used five pitchers and three pinch hitters, two of whom made hits. Home runs by McHenry and Hornsby of St. Louis were responsible for five of the six Cardinal runs. Pertica blanked New York with three hits. The defeat put the Giants seven and one-half games behind the Pittsburgh leaders. Cy Williams home run in the twelfth inning gave the Philadelphia Nationals a victory over Chicago. Despite three two-base hits by Manager Speaker, Cleveland dropped a close game to Boston. Thirteen New York American play ers Dattea in the sixth inning, scoring eight runs. Four of these were due to Meusel's home run and single. Cobb suffered from another of his usual batting slumps yesterday, the best he could do was get three hits out of four times at bat. Ruth also garnered three bingles, but failed to hit for the circuit.
