DODGERS IN CLEAN
SWEEP WITH CUBS
Uncle Robbie's Nephews Take
Final Game Of Chicago Sc
ries by 6 to 2 Score.

Special Dispatch 10 THE New York HERALD.
CHICAGO. May 23.-Rcgardless OF their
performances on the three other battle
fields of the great corn belt Uncle Rob-
bie's nephews acquitted themselves with
considerable glory during their three
piece sortie with the highly touted Cubs.
They made a complete sweep of the
visit here to-day by maulng Killefer's
entry in the windup to g behind the
classy twirling OF Al Mamaux, who al
lowed but nine scattered hits.
Immediately after the victory Robbie
piled his wards aboard a rattler bound
for Philadelphia, where the F1atbush
athletes are billed for three double
headers in row on Thursday. Friday
and Saturday.
Killefer employed three pitchers In a
futile attempt TO wrest at least one
game from the Brooklynites. but they
all looked alike to the visitors. Percy
Jones. the only southpaw on the Chi
cago staff. started and lasted three and
two-thirds innings, granting seven lusty
wallops. When Jones was pried loose
from the debris the Robins had the af-
fair on ice, TO l. killefer then intro
duced Osborne, a gaunt right handler.
who was raped for two hits in three
and one-third innings. Kaufman, kid
right handler, finally finished the job.
Only Two Cub sIuggkrs.
Only two gents wearing the Bruin In
sigma were able to connect consistently
with Mamaux's smoke ball delivery.
They were Grimes. who poled a pair Of
mighty triples, and Terry. who conbed
four singles in row.
The Robins threatened in the opener
but failed to make any progress. High
walked only TO be killed in a double
play with Johnston. Then Neis doubled
but was left when Wheat, who hasn't
enjoyed any success all season against
southpaw hurling, tapped weakly to Eel-
leher
In tho second singles by Myers and
Schm-ndt and sacrifice shots by Olson
and De Berry accounted for the first
Dodger marker. The Flatbush folks
put over three runs in the fourth on
singles by Myers. Schmandt and Olson.
a sacrifice by Mamaux, errors by Hol-
locher and OFarrell and a passed ball.
When this ruction was over Killefer
yanked Jones and shunted Osborne to
the mound. The squirt Immediately
faded.
The Cubs scored their first run in the
second on triple by Grimes and
F'lack's sacrifice smash to Wheat.
Osborne got by smoothly until the sixth,
when De Berry singled and Mamaux
sacrificed, both runners being safe on
Grimes's wild chuck past second. High
strolled and then Johnston socked a
long sacrifice fly to Flack. and De Berry.

OWNERS MAY PUT
BAN ON LIVELY BALL

PHILADELPHIA. PA. Nov. IL
Ofioials OF the factory IN this city
that supplies the major leagues with
baseballs, hint the ball may not be
as lively next year.
The fact that over 1000 home runs
were made in the two major leagues
has caused certain agitation against
the lively ball. Some OF the mag
mates feel that the free hitting that
has featured the games for the past
three years will soon have robbed
the home run OF much OF lts thrill,
since it's getting so common.
While It Is conceded that the pub
lie likes free hitting rather than air
tight pitching. the magnates seem
to think the hitting end OF the game
is being overdone.
II Is said the matter will be freely
discussed at the coming major
league meeting. and Il wouldn't be
at all surprising II the order went
out TO slow up the ball. which after
all simply means that the yarn will
not be so tightly wound around the
cork center.
1t is the yarn and the way It Isl
placed on the ball that produces
the liveliness of the sphere rather
than the cork center.

TOUGH LUCK NO
BARRIER FOR ROCKNE
BY NEA Service.


SOUTH BEND. IND, Nov. IL
The loss OF one or moro star foot
ball players means nothing in the
life OF Coach Knute Rockne. OF
Notre Dame. His team goes on
winning just the same.
Last year his football squad lost
a dozen regulars either through
graduation or having them declared
ineligible because OF professionalism.
That was quite a blow.
In one OF the early games this
fall his star tackle, Tom Leb. suf-
fered a broken leg, putting him out
for the rest OF the season.
The latest tough break for
Rookne IS the loss OF his whirlwind
halfback, Gus Desch. Rocltne has
declared that Desoh Is through for
the season.
Desoh, who IS captain OF the Notre
Dame track team and a hurdler OF
Olympic caliber. injured his heel
some time ago. The bruise contin-
ues very painful and refuses 10 re-
spond 10 treatment. Rest seems TO
be the only cure and Rockne has
decided to save Desoh for track
work rather than use him on the
