Special Dispatch to THE New YORK Herald.
CHICAGO, Aug. 23.-Brooklyn's Indian
sign on the Chicago Cubs was working
overtime to-day and the Dodgers shut
out the Cubs by to 0. 1t made two
straight for the Dodgers in the series
which ends tomorrow. The Dodgers
have won seven of their ten games in
Chicago this year. and Chicago is the
only town in the West in which they
have been able to hold their own.
How effective the Brooklyns Indian
sign was to-day was proved when the
Dodgers We're pitched to victory by
Sherrod Smith, the veteran southpaw,
who was the hero of the 1916 worlds $
series. Smith has been worthless this
year except for finishing games. at which
he has always been a star. but Manager
Robinson had to pitch him to-day be-
cause Dutch Ruether, who had the as
signment, complained that his arm was
sore.
1t was with small confidence that Rob-
bic sent Smith to the front, but the old
timer deceived him pleasantly. Smith
held the Cubs to eight hits and received
championship support. Three double
pplays, two of which We're started by
Andy High on hard blows, took the
steam out of the Cubs when they be-
came threatening.
Smith once pulled himself out of q
hole without assistance. Barney Fri
berg singled to right in the Chicago sew
enth with one out and Hack Miller sent
him to third with a double to right.
Smith tightened up. and foul pops by
Krug and OFarrell to Otto Miller re-
tired the side.
Percy Jones, youthful southpaw,
started for the Cubs and was Knocked
out for four runs in the first inning.
Virgil Cheeves finished the game.
Olsen led off against Jones in the
first inning with a single to right. john
son singled to center and Bert Griff1th
left, scoring Olson. Wheat laid down
sacrifice. The scorers gave Wheat

Johnson and Griffith and sending Wheat
to second. Here Cheeves entered the
fray and Jones exited entirely.
Schmandt greeted Virgil by bunting
at him and Wheat was forced at third
High forced Schmandt, Myers taking
third. On an attempted double steal
OFarrell threw to Terry and High was
run down but Myers scored.

the fourth inning with one out. Otto

scored High. Smith singled to right
