cuer in Both Contests and
Gets Credit of Games.

Chicago, July 22.-In a long aft
ernoon of terrific battling, the
White Sox downed the New York
Yankees in both games of a dou-
BILE header at Comiskey park yes
terday. winning the first, to in
a ninth-inning finish, and taking
the second, 5 to 4, in a 10th-inning
rally. The days doings knocked
the Yankees down into third place
and put the Sox six full games out
in front.
Dick Kerr, short but sturdy
southpaw, did heroic rescue work
for two SoX pitchers and got credit
for winning both games, though he
pitched only two and one-thiFd in
nings all told. In the ninth round
of the first battle he rushed to the
aid of Claude Williams, who was
crumbling under heavy firing by
the enemy The score was tied
when Dick took command. He
famed one guy, getting the boys
out of trouble, and Immediately his
mates went out and scored the
winning run.
In the second game Red Faber
broke down in the ninth with the
score tied, and once more Little
Dick was summoned. Again he
came forth and stopped the Yam
KEGS stone still, and in the last of
the 10th the Sox showed over the
winning run, Kerr himself aiding
with a sacrifice hit.
In both games the Sox got away
in front, gaining a four-run lead
each time, only to have the count
finally tied by the continual bonn
harding of the enemy. However.
on each occasion, Kerr was equal
to the task of stopping the visitors
onslaught, after which his mates
rallied and won out.
In the opening encounter, the
Sox took the measure of Bob
Shawkey, premier hurler of the
Yanks. He departed in the sew
enth and Russell and Quinn finish

CUBS STOPPED

Attempt VIII Be Made to Play Two
Consecutive Double Headers
To Make 1t Up.

New York. July 22.-Prexy Eb-
bets of the Robins tried hard to
stage at least half of his double
header with the Cubs yesterday but
st. Swithin foiled him. Now they
are going to try to play four
games in two days to catch up with
the schedule. The weather man
makes it doubtful if they can
The sun came out for the first
time in a week for a few minutes
around noon but it was only kid
ding. Before the Cubs reached the
again. But there was a fair sized
crowd on hand, so an attempt WAS
made to keep their coin.
By megaphone the fans were
advised the start of the first game
would be delayed from 1870 to 2
o'clock Then the first game was
called off and announcement
made the second game would be
started at 2:30 if possible. Just
before that hour the rain ceased
and a flock of five aliens with a ma
tive boss got busy with buckets
and sponges, sopping up the heavy
dew. After half an hours work
they were just ready to begin pas
timing when another driZZle set in
and it was all off.
Local clubowners are reaping
the reward for misdeeds earlier in
the race when games were post
poned with slight reason except
for the purpose of producing
doubleheaders in Brooklyn and
saving the slim pitching staff of
the Giants until it could be
strengthened by purchase or trade.
Anybody is likely to pitch for
either Cubs or Robins today as all
the slabmen are ready for work.

The number now being 1880.
Last year the total enrolment
in school was 1877. The maxi

pacity of $50. These conditions

these grades went to school in
the morning for one week and
went in the afternoon the follow

children in these grades found
this plan very unsatisfactory, as
it was necessary for some of
them to serve three dinners each
day.
According to the census now
the increase in enrolment be-
tween the ages of eight to four
teen will be 299. This number
will reach 400 by the time the
census is completed, making a
