CARDINALS REMAIN FOUR
 POINTS BEHIND PLRA TIES
Bill Sherde Gets Revenge By Beating BrooklynPitts burgh Divides Twin Bill With ephia-Chi- cago Turns Back Giants-Red SoX Beat Chicago Athletics Tied For Second Place By Trimming De- troit Tigers to 1-League Notes.
.. .AA A.ao.Iatea prea.

By the Associated Press.
 Little Bill Sherdel, knocked from the mound by Brooklyn on Tuesday has kept the faith and today the St. Louis Cardinals are only four points behind the world champion Pirates.
 Lefthanded Bill gained revenge yesterday for that insult of earlier in the week and his ammates took up his cause with IA safe punches that brought victory ever the Dodg- CTS in seven starts. With his eight hit pitching he threw in a double and single.
 At the same time Pittsburgh could do no better than gain an even break with Philadelphia, losing the first to 1, and taking the sec ond 4 to o. A home run by Al Nixon in the tenth inning of the opening contest downed the Pirates, but Emil Yde was in exceptional form in the second and granted only four hits for the shutout.
 Chicago returned to power in the struggle for fourth position in the standing by turning back the Giants, to i, on four safeties. Sheriff Blake permitted 10 blows but they caused little damage.
 The Boston Red sox. outelassed but ever fighting, recorded their sixth straight victory, beating Chi cago, 1 to 0, when Bill Hunnefeld erred in the seventh after Jacobson's double. Wingfeld was strong in the pinches, the pale-hosed players fail ing to score on eight singles.
 The Philadelphia Athletics went into a tie with Cleveland for second place in the American league when Gray and Willis gave Detroit home run and three singles. The score was g to 1 and Frank O'Rourke seldom classed as slugger, was the man who made the circuit blow Metzler, who has replaced the suspended Al Simmons in the Mack outfleld, produced three hits all singles.

RED S0X ALL SET FOR kENSINGTON
IObin Doesn't Figure an Easy
 Victory Next Sunday

The Corbin Red Sox and the All Kensington baseball teams will meet Sunday afternoon in Kensington in the first game of five game series between the two teams. This will be
 the first showing of the champions
 of last year against any of the teams which it beat in the series of 1925 and just as much interest. if not more, is being shown in the game as was shown in the contest last Sun day between the Falcons and Ken sington.
 The showing of the Kensington team last Sunday was miserable to say the least but the feeling among the supporters of the club is that every man who had an error, got all the bad baseball out of his sys- tenn and there will be a different exhibition against the Red Sox. One thing that will react in Kcnsington $
 favor win be the reappearance in the lineup of "Yiggs' Patrus, snappy second baseman. "Yiggs" is the
 steadying influence that the team needs and with him in the lineup Sunday, Kensington will be all set.
 Manager John Tobin of the Cor
 bin Red SoX is confident that his team will win the game. but he feels that his team will have as hard a nut to crack as any that has been met this year. He states that he has seen teams, real good teams go to pieces ir ar important game, only to come back and play like cham pious for the rest of the time. We all have our days off" he says, and
 from what l know of the kcnsinE-
 ton players as individuals, they will
 be on their toes to give my team a
 drubbing Sunday For that reason, I am going 10 shoot the works
 against them"
 Manager Pat Buckley of the Ken sington team has all the confidence in the world that his charges will. be in shape Sunday. 'I don't know
 what happened last Sunday and ]

 Of mine is going 10 make q clean sweep of the rest Of the games with both the Red SoX and the Falcons declares Buckley 'I don't blame the fans to feel disgusted at the
 showing of inc team last Sunday. but We all know they can play good baseball and they are going to be right next Sunday"
 l With statements such as these
 coming from the two managers, the game Sunday looks like q good num- ber. Just who the opposing pitch CTS will be is a question. but it is expected that Berg and Yale will
 oppose each other. The game will he started promptly at ! o'clock and
 buses will carry the fans from Up-

 The umpiros for Sundays game

League Standing
Stanley Works Win

The P. X F. Corbin baseball team went down to defeat at the hands of the Stanley Works last night in a postponed game>in the Industrial league by the score of to s. The game was tight zone all the way through the seven innings played and Corbins held the lead until the sixth when a rally by the Buttmak- CTS brought in three runs and gave them a margin of one, big enough to win.
 Jerry Griffin and Warner Johnson two veterans on the mound, oppos- ed each other Jerry, unable to shake off the unlucky jinx that has been following him, was throwing nicely until crash off the bat of Green hit him squarely in the left thigh and this Nseemed to take the steam out of him because he re- tired in the next inning in favor of "Micky'' Huber Johnson left in the fifth and Salak took up the burden and kept the Corbin team safely for the remainder of the game.
 Stanley Works opened up in the first inning. Mack and Snyder walked and the foremr scored on Jackson's error on Parsons ground CT. Corbins were unable to do thing in the first, but the players swung into action in the second. Wright walked and went to sec ond on Luke's poke to left. Pelle- tier picked Anastasio's grounder neatly but threw wildly to first and Wright scored. Anastasio took sec ond on the next pitch. Griffin swung at wild one that went be- hind Mack for the third strike. Luke scored and Griffin was safe at first. Anastasjo was on third. Jasper hit 10 Pelletder who caught Anastasio at the plate. Mack threw to second to catch Jasper stealing but Green dropped the ball and it went into left field, Chalmers who was run ming for Griffin. scored.
 Singles by Jackson and Wright, and q double by Anastasio gave them two in the third. Their bats were silent in the fourth, but the Butt Makers came through with quintet of counters. Pelletier clout- cd one for three sacks. Munick and Johnson singled. Green and Mack were passed and Hube went In to bitch. Snyder grAted him with long double to left that cleared the sacks
 Curbins went into the lead in the fifth by scoring three on singles by Huber. Wright and Luke and pass to Jackson. This didn't do them any good, however, as Stanley Works also got three in the sixth. Green singled and with a sure double play, Jasper kicked Mack $ bounder away. Both advanced on passed ball and Snyder hit a sacr1- fee fly to center on which Green scored. Parsons singled and then Pelletier clouted his second three bagger of the game, bringing in the other two runs. No more scoring was done in the game.

 and Hold Second Place
Church League Standing

The St. Matthew's Lutherans, twice stopped by rain when vic tory would have meant the clinch- ing of the Church league pennant, were finally assured of the cham pionship without a bit of effort on their part when the Kensington Con- gregationalists failed to put in an appearance last night and forfeited 10 the new champions. This may be just as well for them, for had they played the score would prob ably have been more lop-sided than the 90 of a forfeit.
 Swcdes in Second
 The First Lutherans. last years champions, proved that they were not altogether shot by trouncing the Stanley Memorial nine 11-6 and stepping out of the triple tie to hold second place all alone, The game was a slugfest all the way, the hit ting of both teams being heavy. The Stanmors staged, a successful bunting attack on Fresen in the first inning and scored twice on the in field errors which followed. They added another in the second, but the Sw6des found Carl Rittner in the next frame and pounded him hard to take a 5-3 lead.
 The Stanmors crawled back to a tie, but the Swedes went ahead to stay in the fifth and added four un- necessary runs in the final session. The losers made a gallant attempt in their half, but were stopped with men on the bases.
 The au-around work of Thorsten- son, Stanmor first bascman, fea- tured, He made four hits in as many times at bat. one being 8 triple and two others pretty bunts when everybody expected the home run king" to slug, and his work in picking cratic throws out of the air and turning them into outs. Ny borg had a busy night chasing fouls, while Bjorl;lund and Hoist played well for the Swedes. The line-ups and score by innings.
