BY the Associated Press.
Rogers Hornsby's st. Louis
Cardinals appear to be making the
squirt designed to carry them to the
front in the National league and
Cincinnati. now leading, has given
some ground in the terrific pace.
Hornsby. aroused to the point
where he is fighting the greatest
battle of his career, went into yes
terday's contest with the New York
Giants despite a painful injury to
his right eye. A bad bound on a
throw from the outfeld Thursday
did the damage but the manager re-
fused to stay out of the game.
The Cardinals won, 6 to l, Bill
Sher6el lefthanding excellently
throughout. Les Bell, st. Louis
third baseman. doubled in the third
inning to keep his consecutive game
streak, now at IS, unbroken. This
victory placed the Cardinals only
L. games behind the leaders.
Philadelphia outhit the Chicago
Cubs but went down, 5 to 3, with
Charley Root keeping the eastern
adelphia third baseman. was spiked
in the third and had to leave the
game.
Fourteen hits off Mays and Nehf
gave the Boston Braves a to ver-
dict over Cincinnati, Dave Bancroft
leading the onslaught with three
singles for perfect day at the
plate. Jack Smith, former st. Louis
outfielder, hit safely in four of five
trips.
Another exhibition of expert bat
welding gave the New York
Yankees an II to margin over the
Chicago White Sox. Hank SEVERED,
former Browns catcher obtained
from Washington for the waiver
price by the Yankees, did the re-
ceiving for his old st. Louis battery
mate, Urban Shocker and hit a
double and two singles. Lazerri of
the Yanks hit home run.
The Athletics were beaten again
by Cleveland, s to S. their seventh
straight defeat. They played poor
ly throughout, having five errors,
while the Indians found Rommel,
Walberg, Gray and Pate for II hits,
all singles. Joe Sewell had four of
them. AL Simmons, recently bench
ed for day for poor hitting, regis
tered a home run in the first and a
double later.
st. Louis pounded out Is hits to
stop the Red Sox in ten innings,
to 4. The second extra inning con-
test between the teams in two days,
Rice, McManus and Schang of the
Browns collected three hits apiece.
Detroit also staged a hitfest to
beat Washington, 9 to 6. The Tigers
counted 10 safe blows, five of them
for extra bases. Jimmy Uchrinsko,
who held Cleveland hitless for three
innings a few days ago, was not so
successful in his second major
league appearance. Detroit found
the McKeesport recruit for seven
hits in twn innings

day afternoon at Walnut Hill park,
the league leaders sending the Bur-
ritts deeper into the cellar while the
club took win from the Willow
Brooks.
Washington Wins
The Washington baseball team
continued its march towards the
pennant in the New Britain Boys
Baseball league yesterday afternoon
when it sent the Burritts deeper into
the cellar in game played on Dia-
mond No. 2. Washington had little
difficulty in solving the shoots Of
Mancarella and several errors be-
hind him, stacked up a big score
against him.
The Burritts scored first after
having shut out the Washington
team in the first frame but one run
was the result of their best efforts
The Washington team came into the
second with a firm resolve to set
the game on ice Immediately. Shoot
ing out a number of hits and aided
by misplays of the Burritt infield,
Washington sent in six runs. Anoth-
err added in the fourth and still an
other nj the fifth gave the Wash
ingtons a good edge. Burritts sue
ceeded in squeezing in one in the
fifth but Washington put the game
on ice in seventh by sending in five
more. Another was added in the
ninth for good measure.
Pierkowski pitched a nice game
for five innings and then gave way
to Lipka who gave almost as good
an exhibition today as he did
against the Paradise Parks Tuesday,
Mancarella played nicely in the box
for the Burritts but he had poor
support from his mates. Todzia and
Bogdanski were the heavy stickers
for the winners while the Burritts
wree able to collect only three safe
hits off the two Washington pitch |
ers. The score:

Boys Club Victorious

The Boys club took an easy game
from the Willow Brooks yesterday
by a score of 10 to 4. By this victory
the club went into a tie with the
Paradise Parks for second place.
The game started out like anoth-
err pitchers battle with Ferony on
the mound for the Willow Brooks
and Zujko performing for the Boys
club. Misplays however often got
Ferony into trouble and his efforts
went for naught. He pitched good
heady ball as did Zujko and both
kept the hits of the opposition well
scattered.
1t was the early jump of the club
team that started the Willow
Brooks on their way to many mis-
plays. In the first frame the win
ners scored twice when a high fly
got from the centerfielder. On a pop
fly over third Hultberg got under
it. and threw to first for a double
play, but Leopold dropped the ball.
The runner went to second. Zujke
was sent to first when the catcher
linterferred with the batter and
Kovalewski went to third. A single
to left and a double that followed
brought in two runs. In the fourth
with two out the club team put the
game on ice when. with two down,
runner reached first on fielder's
choice and another batter received
free ticket. A long single to right
brought the runners scrambling
across the plate while several in
field misplays saw two more runners
score before the Boys club was re-
tired.
The Willow Brooks made spurts in
the later innings but were cut off
before much damage was done. The
