League Standing

The Uniyersals won from the F. & r. Corbins in an exciting 10 in- ming game Saturday afternoon at Willow Brook park by a score of S to [. The winners filled the bases in their turn in the 10th and Nester singled sharply to center bringing in the winning run.
 The game was filled with thrills galore. First one team would have things all it's own way then the tide would turn. The Corbins held the lead all the way until the ninth when the Uniyersals knotted things and then put across the winning run in the 10th.
 Corbins hoped off to big lead in the first when Landers infield went to pieces. The Corbin batsmen rid died the defense with hot groundlrs. Before Landers could recover, four runs had beensmade.
 Landers got one in the firS inning when after two out, Nester got life on an outfeld error and scored on Nincent's sharp single through third. Another run came in in the second. The third saw both teams scoring,
 The teams travelled along at an even pace until the Cutlery lads got their eyes on the ball and from then until the winning run was pushed across in the tenth they had things their own way. Vincent, Haber and Darrow were the heavy hitters for the winners while Wright. Patrus and Luke led the LoCkmakers. The score.

DELANEY HAS ONLY ONE
 OPPONENT T-BERLENBACH
Bridgeport Jack May Find Himself King Without Kingdom,
 Observers Say

New York, July 19 P)-Jack Delaney, newly may find himself a king without a kingdom.
 Boxing observers believe that only one man can give Delaney a real battle for the honors that he won by decision over Paul Berlenbach in Brooklyn Friday night - and that man is Berlenbach.
 But the man of many niclnames among them "Oom Paul. Pop 'em Paul" and the Astoria Assas- sin'-has proved conclusively that make weight for the 175-pound di- vision is a severe tax upon his rugged body. Friends said before the Delaney battle that if Paul was victorious he would announce his withdrawal from the division to en- gage the catch-weights.
 Some youngster capable of giving Delaney an argument may appear soon but just now his leading foes appear to be Tommy Loughran Of Philadelphia. Young Stribling and Jimmy Slattery.
 Slattery has gained decision oyer Delaney in six-round contests on two occasions.
 Berlenbach is anything but un- happy and already there comes from his followers reports that he will be back in the ring again before the summer is over, with Champion Delaney in the opposite corner.

WASHINGTON DOWNS WALLINGFORD CLUB
Liedke Is Driven From Mound
 in Fourth Frame

Kensington didn't waste much time yesterday in showing Liedke, the Wallingford star boxman, that they are playing real baseball this year, because the former Kensing- tonite was knocked out of the box in the fourth inning of the game with the Lenox A. c. of the Bor- ough. Kensington took the game witch went seven innings by the score of 6 to 1 and had an easy time all the way.
 The Lenox got their sole counter in the first. Condon walked and Layden smashed one to center send ing Condon to third. Morgan flied to right field and Condon rode home. Kensington filled the bases in their half but were unable to score. In the second. Kensington hoped into the lead. Zeigler led the inning off by flaming. Sullick poked single into right. Yale came through with a pretty double ito left scoring Sul- lick Jasper then followed with a single to right scoring Yale.
 Zeigler started the fourth in a different manner by showing a single through the box. Sullick belted one over second and both runners ad- vanced on a wild pitch. Yale walk ed, filling the bases, Patrus hit to Condon and Zeigler scored on his poor throw. Jasper cleared the bases with smashing double to cen. Sheehy went in to pitch for the Lenox and he held Kensington down. The game was called in the seventh on account of rain.
 Yale's pitching and the batting of Jasper featured the game. The larg- est crowd of the season was on hand to watch the game showing the success of the free transporta- ton service. The score:
New Britain herald., 1926-07-19

It was a great baseball game up to the sixth. The Stanley Rule got away to nice lead when Salak was wild and unable to find the plate. He then held them down until the fifth when another run was scored. Stanley Works was held scoreless until the fifth when the Butt Makers chased three across and added an- other in the sixth.
 A rally for four runs was staged in the seventh but Stanley Works couldn't do a thing with the clever pitching of Schmidt. The Ruler hurler was ruler all through the game except in the fifth and seventh when he was inclined to be wild. He saved himself, however, in time to stop the rallies his opponents stag cd. Stanley Works used three pitch- CTS, Salak being credited with the loss. It wasn't his fault, however, because his team went wild after Mack's fatal error in the more fatal sixth frame. Johnson lasted less than two innings while Al Schade finished the game.
 Hinchliffe and Thorstenson were the hitting kings for the winners while Schade and Parsons belted the ball hard for the losers. Paul Snyder turned in the fielding gem of the day with a one handed stab of hard line drive in center by Hinchliffe. Paul ran back with the crack of the bat and just as the ball went sailing by. he threw his right hand over his left shoulder and spearcd the ball. The score:

RED SOX WIN OVER
 ROBERT GAIR TEAM
Snyder Gets Two Home Runs and Steals Second and Third

The Corbin Red sox of this city defeated the Robert Gair Co. club of New London yesterday before the largest crowd of fans that has gath cred together in the Whaling City this year. The score of the game was 12 to 4. Paul Snyder came into his own in the game by slamming out two home runs. On the base paths, he stole second and third turning in the real feature for the afternoon. Billy Wojack had busy day in the field until forced to retire with a strained ligament in the seventh.
 McInnes started off in good form retiring the side on strikes. The home club backed up their pitcher in their turn at bat by counting three times in the opener. Peck and Joe McInnes were passed and Jack McInnes singled to left. Speedy handling of the ball caught Peck out at the plate. Chaplan scored both other runners and himself with a long circuit drive to center. In the ninth, a pass to Berry and a long single by Peck added another run.
 Bernett, for the Sox. singled in the second and scored when Gaet- ano unused up Jervis' drive. Snyd- CT added one in the third on his first circuit clout. Barnett in the fourth. got a life on Joe Mc1nnes' boot, went to second when Wojack was thrown out at first and scored on Schmidt's single.
 Fitzpatrick pushed one past Ring land in the fifth and Snyder laid down pretty sacrifice. Barnett came through with the necessary blow to score the 19-year old third baseman, Fitz. Schmidt socked one that was good Tor the round trip in the sixth and Murray got on on a ifelder's choice. Fitzie slammed out a double and both runners scored when Jack McInnes booted Snyder's hopper.
 The ninth was the inning where in the fireworks blazed away. Smith opened the inning by walking. Cor azzo was safe when Montali failed to handle his bid for hit Smith went to second, Jeryis famed. Mur- ray walked and Flynn struck out. Fitzpatrick singled and one run scored. Then Snyder poled a long one out and before the ball was brought back, four more runs had been added to the count of the Sox. Blanchard hit for two and Barnett ended the orgy when Joe Mclnnes speared his line drive after hard run. The score:

 Tom Zachary, 30 year old left handler of the St. Louis Browns, formerly of the Washington Sena- tors, may well claim something of a feat in this baseball year of many feats for he is the first to shut out the New York Yankees of 1928.
 The lean moundman from Snow Camp, N. C.. permitted the slugging Huggins team to hit safely nine times yesterday, his veteran head turned them back when trouble threatened. He struck out four Tony Lazerri from Salt Lake City proving a victim thrice. St. Louis won, 4 to Q, Ken Williams hitting a home run that sent Sad Sam Jones showerward.
 Cleveland downed it's former great pitcher, Stanley Coveleskie, at Washington by to 3, although out hit by the American league cham pions. The Pole has been lying across the Indians path for two years and perhaps 1t was the fault of his mates, who maneuvered care- lessly on the bases, that he lost.
 Cincinnati today maintains a margin of only one and one-half games over the world champion Pirates and the St. Louis Cardinals in the National league, having fallen before Brooklyn again 2 to l. Pete Donohue, who has registered 12 vic tories this season, was beaten for the eighth time. He is a much worked pitcher, outfleld errors per mitted both runs made by the Dodgers.
 Charley (Cube) Root gave more than capacity throng at Chicago something to rave about by top bling the New York Giants, to 1, in a brilliant battle with comedy Hugh McQuillan. Hugh allowed only five safeties but three of them came in a bundle in the seventh, causing the two Cub runs. The Giants found Charley for seven. Fred Lindstrom and Paul Florence of the Giants re- ceived presents and greetings form d delegation of old prep schoo mates. .
 Billy southworth, playing on hi' fourth club in the National league appears to have found his haveT at last in right field for the St Louis Cardinals. The former Pirate Brave and Giant added anothel home run to his list yesterday in thu Cardinals to ' victory over Phil adelphia, the conquest put Horns by's team in virtual tie with Pitts burgh for second place.
