Philadelphia, Pa, Aug. 30.-During
an entire afternoon of pastiming I'M
der leaky skies, the Cubs and Phillies
managed to play one game of a sched-
uled double header and the Cubs took
a beating because they Numbered once
and. erred twice. These miscues, coupl-
ed with bits of wild pitching by big Ed
Reulbach, caused their downfall by a
score of to 3.
AS is customary in these days of
strenuous games. the champions got
away to a bully start, only to get mud
died a bit later. and let the enemy
come from behind and win the game.
They struggled gamely for their three
runs and blew up and tossed enough
runs to the Phillies to get them the
victory.
Reulbach's wildness in one inning had
much to do with the beating, but not
all by good deal. Heine Zim tried
to get fly ball away from Schultz just
at the most critical time OF all. with
the result that neither one got it, and
two runners crossed the plate on the
blunder.

Other Cities Suffer.
Other cities suffered even morn
