DODGERS PITCHERS
HAVE BEST RECORDS
Pfefer, Cheney and Marquard Out
rank Ruth. Shore and Foster
in Percentage Table.

The surprising fact that the DodEert'
hurlers outaverage those OF the Red
Sox is revealed in today's perusaI OF
the pitching averages.
Look at il from any angle that you
wish and you will find that the three
DodEer stars-Pfeffer, Cheney and Mar

guard is a nose behind, with .6s4 Ruth is
third with 657. Shore fourth with 654
and Cheney fifth with .S45. So, the
Dodgers in addition 10 having the two
in the first five.
The chances are that three pitchers on
each team will carry the defensive
burden in the world series battling. They
will be Pfeffer, Marquard and Cheney
for the Dodgers with a grand pitching
average Of .672 against Ruth, Shore and
Foster Cor Leonard with a grand pitch
ing average Of .64S-or less. II Leonard
works instead Of Foster.
In the point Of effectiveness the two

georgetown WILL Be
READY FOR MIDDIES
Shake-up in Hilltoppers' Line Greatly
Encourages Coaches-Will
Stop Navy.
Georgetown viii be ready for NAVY.

Georgetown will be ready for Navy.
That the Hilltoppers will prove worthy
opponents for the Midshipmen goes with
out saying. but many OF its followers dur
ing the past few days were given the
impression that the forwards of the Blue
and Gray were weaklings and that the
fast Navy backs would cut this line to
pieces.
The safest bet is to avail the result,
but from an opinion OF an old-timer who
witnessed the Hilltoppers at work yes
tsrday on the varsity field, Navy or any
other eleven on the Georgetown sched-
ule will be compelled to put al they
got on the balP' to penetrate the defense
shown by these flrst-string players in
the scrimmage drill held yesterday.
Although the showing of the George
town forwards made against the
Maryland State College eleven on
Wednesday, in a practice drill, was
anything but impressive to the followers
and coaches, this one days performance
yesterday has reversed the appearance
OF things.
The hardest scrimmage ever witnessed
on the Hilltop field was held yesterday
and with two shake-ups made in this
heretofore weak line, the Blue and Gray
can now present a stonewall forward.
For two hours Coach Albert Exendine
kept these Hilltop warriors plugging at
one another until he had corrected all
the faults that were, shown on Wednes-
day, and when the squad finished OFF its
work" shortly before sundown, Exile"
seemed satisfied that Navy would have
to hustle all the way to land the YER
dict.
The Hilltoppers are prepared to halt
Roberts, the star half back of the Mid
dies, while Jackie Maloney and Gilroy
will test their toes against Perry, Navy's
sensational kicker. Nothing but a light
signal drill will be held today. Tomor-
row morning the Hilltop squad. forty
FIVE strong, will board the o'clock train
for the little Maryland town. The stu
dent body will leave on the Il o'clock
train, as the o'clock train does not ar
rive at the grounds in time for the
starting OF the contest.

In Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, In

in the spring and fingers until very

out Of every five the %pasturage is such
that the sheep can take pretty good

NEW YORK BABY DEATH RATE
LOWEST IN YEARS

New YORK, Aug. 2s.-Fewer babies
have died in New York city this year
than in preceding years, despite the
infantile paralysis epidemic which
claimed more than 1000 babies.
Health authorities said decrease
undoubtedly was due to fact that
the mothers took better care of
children and kept homes cleaner,
fearing paralysis attacks.
