CRy JACK HAAs.)

Old Jup. Pluvius got in ahead of
time yesterday, causing a postpone
ment of games in both the independ-
ent and league series. The fans un-
doubtedly missed a hot argument
when Navy and Shops were not al
lowed to meet They will have to
wait another week before they can
see the only two winners in the
league series in action against each
other.
According to the agreement in the
independent series, the games sched-
uIed for yesterday between the Ma
rines and Metropolitan Athletic
Club will be staged today. The Ma
rines have a crack organization, and
as the Nets have attained quite a
reputation during the season. the
game this afternoon should be
warmly contested.
So far this week Navy and Shops
have been the only victors in the
league series, as the third game end
ed in a tie. In the independent Sc
ries the Mohawks and Silver
Springs, by putting out the Brock
ways and Atlantics, are entitled 20
play again in the second round.
The game this afternoon between
Treasury and Naval Operations
should be a good one. 1t is under
stood that Navy will pitch Three
Fingered" Policeman Finney Kelly.
and Alexander will be on the mound
for Treasury. Alex was the lad that
came near winning the pennant for
Finance in the Departmental League.
and he is also the boy who is keep
ing the Cardinals, of Alexandria, on
the baseball map.

renewed last season, with Cudgel

ton finishing third. Sir Barton start
ed as a running mate of CudgeIs,

ting. Sir Barton had previously won
the $4,000 Potomac Handicap, a

Both Comdr. J. K. L Ross, of Mon
treal, the owner of Sir Barton. and
Samuel B Riddle, of Philadelphia,

". B. PZunkeH's Early Morn
Lands Race in Easu Fashion
CBy HIGHWAY

Well ridden by Jockey walcott,
\. B. Plunketts Early Morn found
little trouble in taking down the
decision in the fourth event at MARI
boro yesterday afternoon from a
good field, paying supporters of the
aged Peep-o'-Day horse the largest
mutuel price of the day, $3.50 for 81
This is the second race Early Morn
has won since the ponies started rae
ing this summer at Hagerstown.
Jockey Walcott took Early Morn
into the lead shortly after the bar
rier was sprung. and did not have to
ride him out to stall off Sweeny's
Primitive. the public choice
Ahara. an old favorite in Mary
land, saddled by J. Y. Christmas,
just missed in the second event
when Jockey Stirling on Regular
managed to withstand Ahara's chal-
lenge and keep Regulars head in
front at the wire.
Hello Pardner in Close FinisI.
Another close decision came in the
next event, when Ed Denham's Hello
Pardner outgamed Perigourdine, a
mare which was sent to the post by
the Kentmere Farms
Gaudy, winner of the initial dash.
and Arbitrator, the veteran gelding,
who accounted for the nightCap, out
classed their fields, and they won
with lengths to spare.
MarshalIs Runecraft, another
gelding which displayed brilliant
form at Hagerstown, but ran disap-
pOintingly at Marlboro the opening
day when he finished fourth in a
field of four horses, showed a ster-
ling performance in the nightcap to
take the place after Arbitrator.
Record Price for Thrills.
Thrills. saddled by w. A. Buck.
one which has the record of paying
the largest mutuel price at the pres
ent meeting, S44 for 81. came back in
the sixth race and won easily from
Rey Ennis and Trapping.
Link Boy was another youngster
which proved a repeater. when he
took down his second race at the
present meeting.
Despite an unpleasant drizzling
rain, another throng was on hand at
the racing yesterday afternoon. To-
day and tomorrow are the last days
of the race meeting at Upper Mari-
boro, which is being held in connec-
ton with their regular fair.
Fair-sized fields are offered those
who attend the races this afternoon,
and as the horses entered are un-
usually evenly matched it will
doubtless prove extremely hard to
locate the winners.

the Browns ploted by the genial and peppery Jimmy
Burke, is any a in
town sitting wit a sel-saished air?
The Washington herald., 1920-08-20

Jimmy Is quite a popular guy
in his home town. Taking over
the helm OF the St. Louis team from
the hands Of Fielder Jones in 1918.
he has turned a joke team into
a winner and one that is feared
throughout the rircuit Further
more, he has it travelling along in
fourth place and is going to be
nightly surprised II it doesn't fin
ish there.
Browns Were TaII-enders.
Back in 1908. under the leader
ship of Jimmy McAIeer, the Browns
also finished fourth. Had they won
the final game Of the season from
Cleveland they might have taken
second honors. But that was be-
yOnd their strength. Since 1908,
however, they have been a consis-
tent second-divisioU bunch until
Burke happened along. Usually
they finished seventh or eighth.
Sixth was a wonderful lowing in
those days.
Taking control in 1918 while the
team was in a slump, Burke in
jeCted a lot Of pep and dnally
brought them to fifth place. Last
season he repeated that stunt This
season he is going higher. And
next year-weIl, he's got the c. nb-
ing habit.
Exceptional hitting strength. ca
pabIe fielding and plenty of hghting
spirit have made the Burkemen a
tough proposition this year. George
Sisler alone is a powerful factor, but
aiding the leagues leading hitter
are four other men above the 800
mark. Jacobson. TObin, williams
and Smith are all pelting the pill for
exceedingly healthy averages
Last statistics show the Browns
to be tied with the Indians for the
lead in club batting, with team aver
a ge Of -3O4.
Gerber Is Fielding Star.
Effective hitting is not their only
virtue. The team is doing splendid
work afeld. Burke is lucky in hav-
ing a remarkable performer at short
in the person Of Gerber. This youth
can cover as much ground as any
short fielder in the league and has
an unCanny arm. SisIer and Gedeon
II.
third. is a converted outhelder. who
Is used there for his hitting. But he
IS improving in his fielding daily. and
bids fair to hold his own with the
rest in the league by next year.
In the outer garden not only -
every man 500 hitter. but all are
able ground coverers and splendid
throwers. Kenneth Williams has
one OF the greatest whips in the
business.
Burke's pitching staff needs more
strength If he would finish higher
next season Shocker. Dixie Davis
and Burwell are his leading slab
bers this year. Weilman. Van
Glider and Sothoron are fair per
formers Give Burke two more men
OF Shocker's class and he will make
the best sit up and take notice.
