Scott's Record for
Continuous Play
Has a Close Call

CHICAGO, Sept. 13.-Everett Scott,
Yankee shortstop and holder of the rec
ord for consecutive games played in
major leagues and probably in all base
ball, to-day put on replica of Sheri-
dams famous ride to keep his great
record Of continuous play intact. Scott
won with the help of an automobile, an
interurban car, taxicab and the ex-
penditure of $40 after a railroad wreck
had threatened to snap the long string
of games which Scotty started back in
1916-June 20, to be exact.
On the date mentioned above Scott
took his place with the Boston Red
Sox, and from that day to this the
Indiana Deacon has never missed a
championship game in which his club
took part. Through the remainder of
1916 and the next five years Scott
played daily at shortstop for the Red
Sox His string had reached 832
games when he finished with the Red
Sox last fall. 1t had reached 969
games when the Yankees left Phil
adelphia on Monday night.
Scott received permission to visit his
folks at Bluffton, Ind, and he left
home in time to reach Chicago this
noon A railroad wreck about fifty
mites from OouCu DeHu nelu up MS
train and threatened to keep Scott out
of the double header-certainly out of
the first game. Scotty wanted to keep
that record going and also to help the
Yankees in the pennant fight.
SO it was case Of leave the train,
get an automobile to the nearest in
terurban line, then use the trolley into
the taxicab zone and the cab to the
park.
AS the Yankees started the first in
ming Scotty was forty miles away, SO
Mike McNally went to short. Near
the end of the third inning he was
about twenty miles away and coming
strong. While the Sox were batting in
the sixth inning Scott passed the gate
keeper, hurried to the Yank clubhouse,
donned uniform and was playing dur
ing the Chicago seventh. So the record
for continuous play has stretched to
971 games. 1t cost Scotty forty bucks,
but he will get that back.

Home Rum by Burns
Enables Red Sox
To Defeat Browns

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 13.--st. Louis
dropped half game more behind New
York to-day by losing to Boston, to
!, while the Yankees were breaking
even with Chicago. The Browns are
now game and a half behind the pace
makers. Sisters absence, due 10 an
injured shoulder, caused rearrange-
ment Of the Browns lineup. Burns's
home run in the sixth with Mitchell
on base was responsible for the Red
Sox victory. The visitors got only i've
hits, just half the number the locals
made off Collins.
While Sisler was reported as rest
ing easy to-day, his physician stated
it would be inadvisable for him to at
tempt to get back in the game for at
least week. The score:

For one thing, Brooklyn intends to
have plenty of fun with it's baseball in
the closing days of the race. Yester-
day Bert Griffith and Ivy Olson did
too much funning in the third inning
and gave the' Reds two unearned runs.
They both reformed, however, and
helped in the home teams scoring, Oh
son with double which scored run
and Bert with a sacrifice which helped
in the scoring of the winning tally.
But for these two bobbles Dazzy
Vance would have scored a shut-out
He allowed only five hits, no two of
which came in one inning, and he
easily outpitched Eppa Rixey, who
yielded nine safeties. incidentally,
Vance's batting figured prominently in
the victory.
The Robins had to fight up hill all
the way after their comedy of errors.
They cut one run away in the fifth
and another in the seventh. The win
ming run came over in the eighth
Johnston singled, Griffith sacrificed and
Wheat hit safely to center for the de-
Gliding tally. Pinelli gave Vance cause
for worry in the ninth by tripling with
two out, but Bohne ended the game
with a grounder to Olson.
Pinelli was the first batsman in the
third inning, and he drew pass. Bert
Griffith dropped Bohne's fly for the
first error, Pinelli reaching second.
The big fun started after Rixey laid
down bunt. Schmandt guessed the
play, but he threw to Olson at first, al
though there was an easy out in sight
at second. Olson then let fly in the
general direction of second The throw
was too wild for Johnston, with the
result that Pinelli scored and Bohne
