CHICAGO, July 22.-Sheriff Traeger
today clamped the lid down further on
betting at Hawthorne. A record-break-
ing crowd was at the track, and the
sheriff sent an army of deputies out to
the meet to try to hold down the gam
bling lid. The Pinkerton agency, which
has had from thirty to fifty men at the
track each day, increased it's force
Track officials reiterated their claims
that they were doing all in their power
to keep gambling down, and that their
orders to arrest all men seen passing
money were even more strictly en-
forced today than yesterday. when
more than twenty arrests were made.
AS a result of the rigid enforcement
only four men found an opportunity to
evade the law; they were arrested.
Following the expose of betting con-
ditions at Hawthorne the order was is
sued at a noon meeting of the officials
that if future racing was hoped for
some effort must be made to curb the
passing of money at the track. The re-
suit was seen plainly. Gamblers were
wary. The passing of money was re-
duced to a science, whereas on previous
days it was flagrantly open. Those ar
rested were caught in the act of pass
ing money and the money is being held
as evidence against them.

After scoring in the sixth the Yanks

Davenport lifted his massive system
from the yawning abyss by tanning
Shawkey and retiring Magee on a fly
to right. Since reaching home early in
July the Yanks faced the western clubs
in nineteen contests, of which they won
ten and lost nine. Their only setback
was from Cleveland, a club that has
beaten them six out of eight starts on
the Polo Grounds this year. The score:

NEW YORK, July 22.-Sir
Robert Shawkey drew a tough
battle, as usual, today. His OPP
ponent was Dave Davenport,
who is husky enough to capture
Verdun singlehanded. The big
Brown pitcher set a fine game
adrift, but Shawkey beat him, too,
by repelling the Browns with
four scattered singles.
Shawkey was the main actor in
the last home triumph, but he
had two worthy mates in Peck
and RUDE Oldring. In the sixth
inning Magee singled. Hartzell
followed with his second hit. Ma
gee then attempted to steal third
base and was promptly collared.
This put it strictly up to Peck,
who wasted no motions before
cracking a long double to right
center, driving Hartzell over
with all the runs that Shawkey
required.
1t was in the eighth inning that RUDE
Oldrinp st,ck in an oar to helm paddle
the Yankee ship over the shoals. With
two out Miller singled George Sisler
then followed with a long drive to right
center. The ball sailed out on a line.
| closely resembling three-base hit in
all its essential outlines. O1dring ducked
for the ball. AS 1t whirled on by the
Rube he jumped for the catch with his
back to the plate. This hit would have
tied the count beyond doubt, and might
have led to annoying complications.

questionable If there is another man in
the position who has given such bril-
liant performance as he did yesterday.
Foster had eight ground balls to handle,

most sensational fielding. The speed
