SIMON'S ERROR HURTS

Houston, Tex, Aug. 1s.-The re-
action from their 29-hit orgy against
Galveston at San Antonio Friday
jolted the San Antonio Bears a notch
farther from any hopes they might
have had of a belated drive for the
pennant Saturday. The smashers. of
the seasons record for hits were held
to three infield scratches by Marvin
Goodwin of the Houston staff and
ANONYMOUSLY shut out, 1 TO 0.
Not a visiting runner got past
second base. In four innings the
Bears went out in order.
The local pitcher struck out seven.
Rube Marshall Of the Bears pitched
shutout ball himself. He allowed but
four hits, two of which were of the
infield variety and only one of which
went into the outfield on the fly.
But Marshall's support threw him
down at a critical moment and he
lost what was perhaps the highest
twirling exhibition of the season
here.
