YANkS GAIN GROUND
BY WIN over TIGERS

DETROIT, Sept. 20.-Babe Ruth
touched Herman Pillette for home
run in the first inning of Tuesdays
opening battle with the Tigers and
scored Dugan ahead of him, giving the
Yankees the edge, which enabled them
to win in the later rounds Of the
game, by a 4 to 3 score.
Although Pillette was fairly effec-
tive, the extra base hits collected off
his delivery defeated the Detroit club.
Detroit took the lead in the second
inning, when Rigney was hit and
Woodall tripled, bringing the former
in. Blues sacrifice scored Woodall.
Pillette wavered somewhat in the
seventh and walked Schang and Jones,
who worked the double steal for the
tying run. In the eight, Ruth tripled,
but was out at the plate trying to
stretch it into a homer. Pipp doubled
and scored on Meusel's triple. Detroit
runners failed to reach first base in
the last five innings. The score:

ST. LOUIS LOSES HOPE
FOR CHAMPIONSHIP
CBy Associated Press,

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 2o.-Visions of
the first baseball championship for ST.
Louis in "a years were dimmed, If
not hopelessly lost, today as result
of the st. Louis Americans defeat at
the hands of the Washington Senators
yesterday while the New York Yam
KEGS were whipping the Detroit Ii
gers, thus increasing the margin be-
tween the two teams to two and a
half games.
However, with championship visions
sent glimmering, applications for res
ervations for the world series continue
to pour in by the thousands to the
st. Louis American headquarters.
Robert Quinn, business manager of
the club, announced that the requests
have been so numerous that his in
creased office force has been swamp
ed with the mail congestion.

BASEBALL PROSPECTS
FOR SEASON OF 1923

Regardless of what success the New
York Giants have in the 1922 pennant
race, the team will have to be streng-
thened to do as good or better next
season.
Looking at the 1928 season this far
to beat the Cubs, the Reds and the Pi-
rates next year and McGraw hasn't
whale of team, unless he gets some
pitchers this winter.
Perhaps Jock Scott will get his arm
pack this winter. McQuillin may go
better and Barnes may get back to
winning form, but it is a gamble.
O'ConnelI to Giants
Fans are wondering where McGraw
will place Jimmy O'ConneH, his SIS, O00
apparently the Giant leaders purpose
to play him in the outfieId, because
he had the San Francisco club switch
him from first base and give him
year in the outfield
McGraw often has said that it takes
at least one year on the bench to
make a real Giant player, but it is in
conceivable that he would allow a $751;
600 article to hide within the shadows
of the dugout.
To get a place in the oufield O'Con-
nell will have to display Irish Meusel,
Pep Young, Casey StengeI or Bill Gun
bingham Stengel, of course, was
freak this season and he could be dis
placed but many critics from the Pa
cific Coast consider Cunningham a
more valuable player than O'Connell.
After what the team did this year
the experts hardly will consider the St.
Louis Cards seriously in the future I'M
less some changes are made in the
club.
The Cards had the grandest chance
in the world to win the National
League Pennant this year. The Giants
were hanging around almost inviting
a defeat when the Cards turned over.
Many of the sages blame the collapse
Of the team on Branch Hickey, the the
DRY expert and blackboard manager of
the club.
They claim around the circuit that
Hickey disrupted his pitching staff,
that he burdened his club with so many
signals and trick plays they were at
sea most of the time.
II ID q ClHCu THAI 5OIu6JHlDS DldSJeQ
good pitching staff. All during the
hottest part of the mid-season battle.
Hickey used three and four pitchers
in every game. He also made a funny
move when he benched Jack Fournier,
a good first baseman, and put in his
place Bottomly, a rookie, whose mis-
plays lost number of critical games.
1t also was a funny move to use rock
| les in the outfield in important series.
| Pirates RejuVinated
Under Bill McKechine, the Pittsburgh
/ Pirates have been given new life. The
Pirates have looked like pennant win
ners for several years. but something
was always wrong with the team and
/ it looks on the surface like the trouble
rested with the management. If the
/ Pirates do not win the 1922 pennant
/ they will be the ranking favorite to
/ cop in 1928.
/ In American League the Yanks
Browns and Tigers no doubt will fight
4 it out all the way with the White SoS
as the dark horse. The Yanks should be
better in 1923, the Browns ought to be
improved with the chance that thei1
young pitchers will be better and il
Ty Cobb gets his hands on one more
good winning pitcher, Detroit will take
lot of beating before they lose

YANkS NOTCH NEARER
SECOND CHAMPIONSHIP;
BROWNS ARE SLIPPING
tRy Associated Pressl

NEW YORK, Sept 20.-The New
York Yankees were a notch nearer
their second consecutive American
league championship today as a result
of defeating Ty Cobb's battling Tigers
4 to 8, in the first game of the series,
while the ST. Louis Browns again with
out the services of George Sisler, and
showing a reaction from the effects
of their losing struggle with the
Yankees, succumbed TO Washington by
Pc same score.
The Yankees increased their lead in
the race to two and a half games.
They can clinch the pennant by TAX
ing seven of their remaining nine
games, even if ST. Louis wins all eight
of its contests.
Sam Jones, of the Yankees, and Her
man Pillette, Cobb's twirling ace. both
got off to wobbly starts but Jones was
alright after the second inning while
his rival weakened in the seventh and
eighth, when New York pushed over
the tying and winning runs. Babe
Ruth's thirty-fourth homer, double
steal by Schang and Jones and extra
base wallops by Pipp and Meusel were
scoring factors for the Yankees.
Home Run Race
Ken Williams of the Browns
matched Ruth's circuit clout with his
S9th, putting him two ahead of Rogers
Hornsby of the st. Louis Cardinals,
and increasing the probability that
he will displace the Babe as this year S
home run chief.
The New York Giants holding the
seemingly impregnable lead of five
and a half games were ready to battle
the second place Pittsburgh team in
the first of three game series today.
The Pirates gained a half game in the
race by trimming Philadelphia 6 to /,
while the champions were idle. The
Giants to clinch their eighth National
league title since 1900 need win but
seven of their 10 games, even If the
Pirates capture all ten contests.
Two recruit pitchers, Metevier and
VIM, pitched Cleveland to a double
victory over the Boston Red Sox to
4 and 8 70 2. Neither issued base
on balls.
Hornsby hit safely in his 33rd con.
secutive game while st. Louis downed
the Boston Braves s to in the only
other game played in either major
league.

SYDNEY, Australia, Sept. 20.-The
old, old quizz about what would hap
pen if a boxer met a wrestler-each
fighting his own style-was settled
here some years ago.
Japan sent to these shores tiny
little fellow who was a jiu jitsu ex-
pert. His name was Shima He got
quite a bit of publicity and, in due
course of time. someone asked him
what he thought would happen if he
met a boxer.
Il would ween,'' smiled Shima.
At that hectic moment Jack Howard
was the heavyweight fistic satellite
around these parts. And when Shima's
remark was repeated to Jack, he said
loudly:
"Haw, hawi"
And that, of course, led to the
matching of the two in the Sydney
Stadium.
The conditions were that each was
to use his own style of warfare and
that the winner would be the fellow
who won the best two out of three
falls, or knockouts, as the case might
be.
Knocks Jap Out.
Time was called for the first SEES
sion. Shima, a dwarf in comparison
with the burly Howard, danced around
and then suddenly leaped at Howard.
The fighter was waiting for him-and
the punch caught the Jap on the chin.
They carried the son of Nippon out
of the ring to his dressing room and
revived him five minutes later. Then
he rested for nine and climbed back
into the ring within the specified Is
minute headline" interval.
Again time was called.
SShima dropped upon his stomach
and began wriggling along the floor
toward Howard in snake-like fashion.
He reached out hand to grab How
ards leg, Howard leaped, trying to get
out of the way.
But the hand caught his leg, and like
lightning flash Shima had twisted it
and thrown Howard to the floor.
They carried Howard out of the ring
with a broken leg and broken hip,
practically crippled for life. For the
injury laid him up for months and
ended ring career which looked ex,
ceedingly bright at the time.
A long while afterward Sam McVoy
| the negro heavyweight, who died a
few months ago, was here in Sydney
| He was introduced to Shima one night
and someone in the crowd told Sam
! that Shima could master him in a
wrestler-boXer affair.
/ Huh" scoffed Sam. THAT little
| sardine! HUH"
An effort was made to match Sam
with Shima. But Sam refused at first
said he didn't want to be a murder
| er. Pressure finally forced him into
the match-and a huge crowd turned
out to see what would happen.
| Time was called.
| Shima hurled himself from his cor
ner-fairly flew at Sam. And, as he
! got within grabbing distance, he grab
/ bed. A fraction of a second later the
| bulky form of the big negro sailed uI
| into the air, twisted, turned, landed on
the ropes-and then fell outside the
ring.
Sam Looks Around.
! They picked up Sam and busted the
cobwebs from his brain. Then Sam
| looked around to make sure he was
outside the ring.
How'd l git here-how'd l gil
here?" he demanded.
He threw you here" explained the
ringsiders, pointing to the Jap who
was sitting in his corner tanning his
little self. Now get back into the
ring for the second round"
mo, sab, no, sab, not mel" blurtet
Sam. Dis amt no game for me t.
play-nope, not for me-"
