. REDS FAIL TO SOLVE ' PFEFFER'S DELIVERY CINCINNATI, Sept- 9. Third place "was enjoyed by the Redlegs only a short time, for the Cards used their big hurler, Ed Pfeffer, in Friday's game and strode along to a neat 6 to 1 victory over the Moran team. Chicago won from Pittsburgh and thus passed the Redlegs into third place. John Couch was Just as effective as Pfeffer in the major portion of the game, the four-run rally being made off Gillecpie in the eighth. Couch was removed in the seventh for a pinchhitter, .who failed to produfce. George Burns had a busy day of it in right field. He handled eight putouts during the nine innings. Five of the put-outs came in succession, three In the sixth and two more in the seventh. He scored the only run for the Reds in the first inning by leading off with a hit, stealing second and scored on Duncan's double. Brings In Homer Hornsby came in with his home run in the fourth, which put the Cards on an even keel with CincL . His drive hit the right field wall and bounded into the field again. St. Louis took the lead and won the game in the nsrt round when Burns made a muff of Mann's long fly, which put the runner on second base. The runner went to third on demon's out and scored on a single by Pfeffer to left. After Couch was removed in the seventh for Bressler, pinch-hitter, Gillespie let the Cards have four runs in the eighth. Four singles, a base- on balls and Fonseca's muff of a thrown ball gave the Cards their four runs.

Three Spectacled Players Now In National League Meadows, Toporcer, Hill More specks! There are now three players in the National league who wear spectacles on the playing field. Lee Meadows was the first one of the three. He has been pitching for the Cardinals for several years The next to bring his cheaters aloog to the big show was George Toporcer. He also joined the Cards and is th most spectacular (pardon the pun) infielder in the old league tnis year. v The third eye-glass wearing gent is Carmen Hill. The Cardinals faited to land him. however. The Giants saw him first. Hill, who has appeared in the box for .McGraw since his recent arrival in camp, is not making his debut in the big show, however. He was with the Pirates six years ago. He played for Uncle Sam in the big me:ee in France and on his return heard the siren call of the outlaws and joined the Oil City club. The outlaw gama lost its elamor for him, though, and he asked for reinstatement. Back in the good graces of organized ball bs join ed the Indianapolis club. The Giants obtained him from the Hoosiers. Fred Fitzsimmons. former Muske gon hurler, stepped into the limelight for the Indianapolis Indians Friday bv handine the Toledo Hens a neat lacinsr. 10 to 3. Seven hits were col lected off his delivery, while the In dians pounded wildly for 18 safeties.

(By Associated Press) CHICAGO, Sept. 9. With the Yankees and Browns neck and neck in the home stretch of the American league pennant ace today, a dive into the batting averages of the two contenders reveals the startling fact that the St. Louis batters have connected with 154 more hits than their Yankee rivals; scored 99 more runs, stolen S3 more bases, and have been excelled only in sacrifice hitting. The figures show the Browns have connected with 1.471 hits, as against 1,317 for the Yankees, and have scored 765 runs, as compared with 666 for New York. In home run hitting, the Browns, with Ken Williams, are in the lead, having belted out 87, while the Yankees, with their mighty Ruth, are trailing with S3. In base stealing, the Browns excel nearly two to one stealing 117 bases as compared with 52 for the Yanks. The Browns also havp proved the better club in getting bases on balls, havins a total of 407, with 324 for the New Yorkers. Sisler Not Alone. George Sisler. first base star, is not alone in the hitting drive of the Mound City clut Johnny Tobin is fifth in the list of league leaders with an average of .339, while Williams, who cracked out his thirty-fifth homer of the season, is batting .326. Hank Severeid, who has been doing the burden of the catching for the Browns, is batting .319, while McManus, Jacobsen and Pat Collins, pinch hitter, utility catcher, are all above the .300 mark. The batting of Sisler the last week enabled him to bdost his average from .413 to .421, which makes it an almost certaintv that he will finish the season well above the .400 mark. In his last eieht games. Sisler connected with 19" hits, five of which were dou bles and one a triple. On the naths. Sisler romped across the plate 12 times, which gave him the as the best run getter. Sisler has registeed 120 times, while Blue of National League. At Cincinnati R .

That night in the ho tel the manager of the losing tQ3.m met the president of the league. "So and so is the rottenest umpire I ever saw", the manager opened the conversation. "He robbed us-out of the game this afternoon. Why don't you get some umpires that can see?" The L. P. replied that he thought the umpire had nothing to do with it, inasmuch as the winning team had scored ten runs in one inning. He gave three terrible decisions and let in the ten runs," the Mgr. came back. About three weeks later the same manager met the L. P. in another city. "Do you know where I can get a shortstop better than the bum I'm playing?" the Mgr. asked. The L P. told him he knew of sev eral that might be bought, but he thought he had a pretty good one. 'Why, that bum made three boners in a game three weeks ago and cost us ten runs. He didn't know where to throw the ball and when it got there it was too late." "I thought that was the game you were robbed out of by the blind um pire? You told me about it that night in the hotel." "Couldn't expect me to say I was wrong, could you? he replied. Sports Writers Interviewed Commissioner Landis has received so many complaints about the umpiring in the major leagues this season that he interviewed the baseball writers for their opinions. He was told that the umpiring was the worst seen in many years, but that no particular team had cause for complaint, because they got as many breaks as bad ones on the decisions. With the exception of a very few umpires, no one ever admits that the field judge is right- on a close decision. The grand stand officials never consider that the umpire is in a much better position to see the play. The trouble is that some umpires are diplomats and some are antagonistic in their attitude. Last year one of the pitchers on the New York Yanks got in a fight with the partner of the most popular umpire in the league. It looked like a free-for-all with the players of both teams gathering around and with the pitcher insisting upon taking a crack at the umpire. The whole scene was ended when the partner of the belligerent arbiter walked to the pitcher and said in a cool voice "Leave the field for my sake, won't you?" The pitcher calmed down In a minute and left the field. If the umpires really are l)ad this year it might be because there are tco many old veterans wearing the blue uniforms. An umpire can lose his eye just as well as a player and he can get slow in the legs just as quickly The umpires who can go around the bases with a fast play ar in the mi nority and it is hard to give a decision from a distance when a player hits the dirt and goes into the bag with a cloud of dust on a low throw. Figure the number of new umpires who have broken into the big leagues in the past three years. Perhaps that is the reason for the complaints.

LONG ABSENT BROTHER RETURNS TO PLAGUE RULER OF BELGRADE (By Associated Preas BELGRADE, Jugoslavia, Sept. 9. Prince George has come back to Belgrade from Paris, and there are some people here who wish that his indolent, care-free life in the French capital of recent years had proved sufficiently attractive to keep him there. Geoge is the eldest son of the late King Peter. As for the throne, he has' renounced it, and his brother Alexander is sitting there with his new queen, Marie of Rumania, at his side. Together they are busy with the formalities of court life. . George has said in substance, "Here am I, George, son of Peter. I would like to have the status of my relationship to this government definitely, fixed. IJiave not the means to live properly, either here or abroad. My brother, the king has denied me my legitimate allowance. . In the meantime, I would like a commission ia the army. How about it?" And of course George has friends, some of whom have interpellated parliament as to why George is not granted the position to which his birth entitles him. George presents a knotty problem. King Alexander is credited with wishing that he would go to the United States, or some other distant land, and reirain irom embarrassing the govern ment.
