REDS PLAY ERRATIC BALL; LOSE TO CUBS BY SCORE OF 7 TO 4

CHICAGO, Sept. 2. Both the Cubs ,and the Reds put up poor exhibitions of baseball in. the opening game of a 6eries of two at the Cub park Friday, but the Cubs -were slightly the better club and won the game 7 to 4. A five run rally in the third inning off Luque put the Cubs so far out in front that they were never In danger. Luque opened he third frame by fanning Oieeves, but Fonseca kicked onq whictt Heathcote had slammed at ,1 him. Luque caught Heathcote oft first ' base and "Umpire Moran called him out, but Umpire Quigley declared that 1 Luque had balked, so Heathcote ad vanced to second instead of taking the bench. The Cuban became peeved at the decision and walked Hollocher. Terry singled to right, scoring Heathcote, but Hollocher was caught at the plate on a rather lucky play. At this time Pinelli pulled the game ! loser. He accepted the grounder of Grimes, but lobbed the ball to first in such a slow manner that the runner was safe. Terry scored on the at tempt at first. Cubs Break Loose Then the Cubs took advantage and added more grief to the Moran camp. Calaghan tripled, Miller doubled and i Krug connected for three bases. John Couch Ditched the next few in nlngs, but was taken out for a pinch -hitter in the seventh and Schnell took iUD the mound duty. ; The Redlegs pulled a big rally in (the ninth which looked good for J while. Heathcote muffed Caveney's fly, Bohne and Burns grounded out, 'Caveney scoring. Daubert, Duncan and Rouah singled in succession, the former scoring. Fonseca was safe when Kelleher fumbled hi3 grounder, which filled the bases with three runs needed to tie the score. Wingo then grounded to Terry.

BOXING ENCOUNTERS AND PRIZE FIGHTS Jack Dempsey and Bill Biennan were refused permission to meet in the ring at Michigan City, Indiana, on Labor day, because the bout was officially declared to be a prize fight. Benny Leonard was. allowed to fight Rocky Kansas and Ever Hammer in the eamo ring because they were boxing matches. The legal distinction between a prize fight and a boxing match must be drawn very fine. Practically speaking, in the profes sion ring there is no difference be tween a prize fight and a boxin match. They are both prize fights. Both bojr3 are paid to go in tha ring and fight. If they don't fight, tho box ers are working under false pretences because the customers - pay their money in the hope of seeing 6ome one kuocked out. The name boring contest and boi' ing match originated to rid reformers of the bad sounding term prize lights Dempsey is big enough and well fortified financially to take care of his own troubles, but it does seem that the champion does get an unfair deal once in a while. Certainly his scheduled fight with Bill Brennan looked like a setup and it was a setup. v Who is there for him to fight without it being a setup? Harry Wills, of course. It is not fair, however, to expect Dempsey to- fight Wills without going through some training fights. Wills is getting ready for Dempsey by fighting worse dubs than Dempsey carries as his sparring partners. Wills gets away with it and gets the credit for fighting. Dempsey tries to and gets the law down on him for it. The New York boxing commission says that Dempsey can't -fight Bren nan or Willard in New York. If he tried to get' Fulton, Miske, Martin, Burke or any other heavyweight he would be panned to death. He has to fipht Wills and it looks like he Is expected to do it without the training that any boxer is entitled to demand. Right in the midst of a radical cam paign to make the champion figiit, tne Ynrk commission says that John

ny Dundee, the holder of a couple of trick titles, is fighting .too much and something will have to be done about it. Dundee is the junior lightweight champion, the world's , featherweight champion of New York and he Is rady to challenge Benny Leonard now lor Oe lightweight title. - The New York commission will ; nave to look to legislation against I monopoly.

YOU CANT CRACK THE ABOUT ATHLETICS;

( The two reasons: Tillie Walker, left, and Ed KommeL . - The Ion U down-trodden AthleGcs have spent very little time in the cellar if any this sea. son. After maintaining a stranglehold cir the cellar championship for years they haTe shown enongh of a reversal of i form to step out. And the home run clouting of Tillie Walker and ; sterling pitching of Ed Rommel have been the main reasons.

Hornsby's Batting Record Assures 1922 Championship With Season Drawing to Close, St. Louis Marvel Has a 25 Point Margin Over Rivals Home Run Slugging Best in League History

(By Associated Press) 1 CHICAGO, Sept 2. Rogers Hornaby, leading the National league in individual batting and home run hitting, today is so far in advance of his challengers that any bid they may make to overtake him will not seriously threaten his drive for the 1922 championship. The St. Louis marvel, with the close of the season just five weeks away, today has a 35 point maTgin over his rivals and is. batting stronger as tho race draws to a close instead of going into a slump. In his last seven games, Hornsby whaled out 13 hits, which shot his average up to .3S9. Hi3 string of 32 home runs is the best performance in the history of the National league. Grimes of Chicago crowded Bigbee of Pittsburgh out of second place honors, going into the runnerup position with an average of .364, as a result of bagging eight hits in his last six games. Bigbee is batting .358, with Hollocher of Chicago fourth with .356, The averages include games of Wed nesday. Max Carey of Pittsburgh continues to be the class of the league in base stealing, having run his strong up to 38. Other leading batters for 95 or "more games: Miller, Chicago, .354; Walker, Philadelphia. .344; Daubert, .343; Carey. Pittsburgh, .242; Kelly, New York, .341; Harper, Cincinnati, .334. . The race between Cobb and Sissler in the American League is dragging along with very little change, as each is traveling at about the same paca. Sissler is out in front with an average of .413, while Cobb is trailing with .400. The St Louis star smashed out 13 hits in his last seven games,, and Cobb, playing in only six games, poled 11. The pair is sticking with the .400 mark and give promise of finishing the season above thi3 figure. Yesterd Games ay s 0 National League.

THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND

CELLAR JOKES TWO REASONS WHY W0m Sissler, who has been leading the base stealers almost all season, in creased his total to 42 bases, his clos est rival being his teammate Ken Williams, who is second with 33. Tillie Walker and Ken Williams are tied for the home run honors, each having cracked out 32. Walker smashed out a brace during the week, while Williams failed to increase his mark of a week ago. Babe Ruth also connected with a brace of four baggers, and is only four behind the pair, With hl3 28 round trip blows, Ruth's admirers are confident that be will overtake the pair before the wind up. otner leading batters for so or more games: Speaker, Cleveland .370; Heilmann, Detroit, .357; Schang, New York, .339; Tobin, St. Louis, .335; Ed Miller.

Spencer Has Fine Trapshoot Record Over Period of 35 Years A one-man war has been staged by Charles G. Spencer. This veteran trapshooter has fired as much powder in his 33 years of tournament shooting as is used in the average revolution. And this year is proving one of his best at the traps.

GIRL HURLS TWO TEAMS TO TITLE ft? -r u V ' ' Lily Parker in aclon. Baseball fans of Youngstown, O., are willing to wager Lily Parker is the best woman curler in the state, if not in the country.

Sept 2. Facing the task of filling at least two important gaps, Coach Howard Jones of the University of Iowa football elevenf, 1921 champions of the Western conference, is preparing to start his cam paign for the development of another winning combination. Practice will be started Sept. 15, the date all "Big Ten" teams will swing, into the practice season. The two important Eans which Coach Jones must fill are those of Aubrey Devine, All-American quarterback and Fred "Duke" Slater, negro tackle, who was accorded All-Western honors last year. WTiile the champions will be minus several other players, Devine and Slater are the outstanding stars whose places must be filled, if the University of Iowa carries away another title. With Devine on the Iowa eridiroa. tnis fall as freshman coach, the trials of Coach Jones in finding a youth who can shoulder the responsibilities left by the former Iowa star are lessened. Devine is expected to show the varsity a thing or two despite the fact that his official duties will be with the freshmen. ROBINS GUT GIANTS' LEAD TO FIVE GAMES NEW YORK, Sept 2. Four twirlers in each of the two preceding games having failed to check Brooklyn's onslaught, Mr. McGraw rushed five to the firing line in an effort to check the Giants' slump but the Dodgers, one run behind in the tenth, ham mered across two runs off Scott and made it three in a row from the cham pions 8 to 7. The teams play a double header today at the Polo grounds. The Giants had their lead over Chi cago cut to five games as the Cubs took advantage of Cincinnati's errors and banged a 7-4 victory.

Tilden and Vincent Richards," national champions in the doubles match with Gerald L. Patter son and Pat O'Hara Wood of the challenging Australians. Play was to be gin at 2:30 o'clock on the courts of the Westside Tennig club. Facing an almost hopeless task as a result of their crushing defeat in their singles matches that opened the internatoinal play yesterday, Patterson los ing to Tilden and to James O. Ander son to William M. Johnson In straight sets tne Australians were determined to make a last ditch stand azainst the defenders. Victory for the Antipodean racquet wielders today would make it necessary for America to capture at least one of the remaining singles matches, scheduled Monday in which Anderson and Tilden and Patterson and Johnston are paired. CAMBRIDGE IN GAMES SUNDAY AND MONDAY CAMBRIDGE CITY, IncL, Sept 2. A strong line-up will face the Gray3 when they go to Greenfield for a nine inning battle Sunday. The Greenfield club has lost but one game this sea son, that being the first start of the year. They have wop 18 straight en counters for their present record. They, realizing the strength of the Cambridge nine, have loaded their line-up with dependable stars of the game in an effort to keep up their standing. Greenfield will play the Grays at Cambridge City on Labor day. Flaherty, Richmond, will hurl on Sunday for the Grays, and Batson will be used in the game on Labor Day at Cambridge.

Dawson is now living in Pasadena very comfortably on returns from shares in one of the Wngley con cerns given him by the latter some years ago. Griffo, as tne average noxing ian knows, was the despair of his trainers. He was in a perpetual state of inebna tion. Dawson recalled how Griffo indulged even more than usual one day with the result that he stretched out and went to sleep in the open. He was so beautifully paralyzed that somebody stole the shoes off his feet without distrubing him. When Griffo reported for his work out his manager declared there could be no roadwork without shoes. Griffo proved that there could be by going down on the beach and running the us ual distance on the sand in his bare feet. "YouH have to go hungry; I can't take you into a restarmt without shoes," declared the manager. "Wait and I'll show you how it can be done," replied Griffo, disappearing. Half an hour later he returned and seemed to have on a new pair of shoes until closely scrutinized. He bad gone to a bootblack stand and had his bare feet shined. Not a bad idea, at that. Bare feet done in russet or tan not only would look stylish, but wearing thick callouses on the bottom of your bare feet would be cheaper than -getr ting your shoes half-soled.
