National League Club Batting
Rioti11g Follows
Unity-Audubon's
Serni-Pro Game

1t happened last Sunday afternoon at
Dyckman Field. The Audubons, of the
uppermost Washington Heights, and
the Unity team, of the fremont section,
were fighting it out before 500 fans in
the stands. Lefty Herschheld, the
pitcher who landed the metropolitan
district high school title for Evander
Childs this spring, was on the firing
line for the Bronx nine. Dave Good
man and Walter Simpson, St. Louis
Cardinal recruit, formed the Audubon
battery.
There was a side bet of goodly pro-
portions, the understanding being that
the side on the long end of the score
in the seventh inning should hold the
stakes to the finish. The seventh
opened with the score tied at 2-2.
Unity Tailed twice in the first half on
dropped outfield fly: The Audubons
came back strong, Simpson and two
others singing in quick succession. The
fourth batter tapped to the Unity first
baseman. who threw high to the plate,
and the runner from third crossed while
the catcher was in the air bringing
down the ball The umpire called the
runner safe. Four to three, three on
and none out--and the roll slipping
from their grasp! The Unity men pro
tested the decision, refusing to con
tinue the game.
There followed a pell-mell riot, en-
tered into by several hundred rooters
for each club. The battling extended
all the way to the Dyckman Street sub
way station, up on to the platform, out
on to the tracks elevated at that point
and into a downtown train that carried
the participants out of the reach of
uprushing police reserves. At last re-
ports. Unity seemed to have most of
the money while the Audubons claimed
lot of personal satisfaction

Foe Beaten Back

Field Marshal Hays troops took the
aggressive last night on the southern

to develop what forces the Germans
have ready for an attack in this region.
Il seems not improbable that the
enemy will again essay a drive around
Arras, although he failed sighally there
in the early stages of the battle, Some
way the Germans have got to force
back the British line between Arras
and Albert before they can so much
farther ahead in their push on the
Somme battle front, as their right flank
is held fast by the British from Vifss
to Albert and has not been able to keep
pace with their left south Of the

The British anchor point on this line
is Vimy Ridge, north Of Arras, the
turning OF which from the north has
been assumed to be one OF the German
objectiyes in driving in the salient along
