[From a STAFF Correspondent

BALTIMORE. Sept. Pit was a
sweet revenge the Tigers enjoyed yes
terday at the expense of Jack Dunn's
rapidly slipping Baltimore Birds
just as sweet as the apple juice fresh
from the cider press at this stage of
the season tastes to the small boy.
Earlier in the race Dunn's men
cuffed the Tigers right and left, jabbed
and uppercut the Bengals until
they were black and blue. Dunn's
men Inundated the Tigers before the
home fans at Wiedenmayer's Park
and made the McGinnity men swal-
low their dust with provoking regu-
larity.
Baltimore had won nine and lost
five games to Newark up till yester-
day. Now it is Newark's chance to
gloat. The Bengals gave Dunn's men
the worst beating yesterday an ORR
ole team has sustained from a New
ark aggregation in years by a crush
ing score of IL to 4. Jack Dunn was
wild last night and contemplated a
reorganization of his lineup to COM
pete with the Bengals.
Today, n the Tigers a get away
with a double-header. their task will
be truly stupendous. for Dunn will
fling his two best hurlers into the
breach wnen he calls on Roth, who
has won every game he started, and
on Bob Shawkey. who has tanned
Newark twice in three attempts.
Dunn is ~grasping at the last straw,
like a drowning man, for Newark
can lose all three remaining games
here and return home in third place
out of the Birds each.
