Special Despotcb TO THE New Yonn HHRALp
SHREVEPORT, La. March 27.-The
Yanks made twenty hits and seventeen
runs against the Dodgers this afternoon
while beating that much beaten team by
the srlothering score of II to 3. It was
the seventh game OF the series and the
sixth victory for the American leaguers,
who have won fourteen games and lost
one so far this spring.
There will be a lull in the stampede
for a few days. The Dodgers retreated
TO New Orleans tonight and will try to
fortify themselves against the visit there
Of the Yankees next Saturday and Sun
day. Manager Robinson has been trying
to get his men to buck UP and make a
better showing, bu. with their pitchers
being hammered for big leads early in
the action the Dodgers have not been
responsive to their managers pleadinss
Robbie did not have much left to send
against the Yankees to-day, unless he
called on Cadore and Smith for q repeat
appearance In the present series. He did
not care to do that, but as two south
paws. Smith and Ruether. have done
well against Huggins's sluggers. no tried

rnaced for twelve hits and thirteen runs

,homers as the Babe did. Each made
two. Four homers and sixteen other

Johnny Mitchell, the California comet.
who has been imparting lustre TO the
Yankees daily exhibitions. was set
es5sae Cor Peckingpaugh. The Yanks did
NOD lose anything by the change at short
field, Notwithstanding that Mitchell has
been very efficient. There Is not any
body playing short as yet capable OF
making Peck look slow or infirm, not
from the way Pecky played to-day. he
played brilliantly and he hit well.
The Yankee infeld covered all the
ground there was to cover and with sure
footed and sure handed agility. They
played championship baseball Their
work was really glittering. and the four
operatives formed q fine combination.
Meanwhile, Shawlsey and Mays we're CIV

hit only on sufference.

Fewster, Pipp and Meausel each hit
safely three times, Pipp getting three
