Instead of mixing all three,

 Pennantville used to look like "iust around the corner" for Chica- gos Cublets but today's shuffle finds some one hanging out plenty of de- tour signs on the National league n1estretch.
 The Pirates Trested first place from the Bruins after stubborn battle in Pittsburgh yesterday. Chi cago going down by 10 as the Corsairs assumed the supremacy on an eyelash margin of 8 single per centage point
 Lee Meadows put the skids under the Cubs by keeping nine hits well distributed and retiring his op- ponents in the ninth after a run was in, two on the bases and one out. Hal Carlson, one of the leading members of the Chicago pitching staff, was the loser.
 Joe Harris was the big noise of the Pirates attack with 3. home run and a double. His sacrifice fly sent Graham across with the deciding run in the eighth.
 The Cubs may not be through by any means but the dopesters picking favorites point out that Chicago IS on the toboggan as is evidenced in wasting away of the once big ad- vantage On the other hand. Chi caso is considered as having a shade by finishing up on the home dia- mond but on that basis, the Pirates and Cards are benefited as well.
 An open date kept the Cards and Giants from the heartbreaking struggle yesterday while rain wash ed out Brooklyn's fracas at Boston. The Phils and Reds were without schedule.
 As for the Giants, they are but two games from the crest and have back of them a winning streak of seven straight accumulated off west ern opposition.

 pose Falcons in This City

The Elliot A. C. baseball team of Boston which comes here Sunday afternoon to meet the Falcons, is a com bination of semi-pro and college players that has been the sensation of Boston this year. The team has played something like A games all ready and has lost only two of these.
 The infleld is fast working ma chine that has received great deal of recognition because Of a double play com bination that has been worked up. Two or three of the men on the squad have received offers for tryouts on league teams and they will probably be working out in some circuit next year.
 The Falcons realize that they have taken on tartar for this Sundays game and with few changes 10 be after the practice sessions are com- pleted, the local club nill present the strongest lineup of the season so far.
 The Falcons show no signs Of rust after their enforced layoff but in practice all the players are fielding in good style while they are hitting the ball hard and far.
 Bergeron or Bucholtz will recei, Q the pitching assignment for this Sundays game while Russ Fischer will probably be back in the fold. The Falcons are satisfied that their opponents Sunday will give them 2 good test for the two hard games on Monday.
 Play Endces
 The Falcons are to meet the Rris- tol New Departures on Monday in two games. Tn the morning, the Fsl- cons Dill play the Bristol team at MuzZy Field in Bristol while Joe Carroll's squad will travel to this city 10 battle the locals in the aft ernoon.
 The teams stand even ss to games won so far On Memorial day, both battled in home and home series with each team winning one game. Mondays contests should decide the supremacy between them.

BASEBALL CODE 0F l ROGERS H0RNSBY
Giant Star Slated to Succeed
 hcGraW, It Is Thought

New York Sept. tP-Listening 10 Rogers Hornsby discuss his base ball playing code, his ideas of leader ship, attitude toward the game and the fans leaves the distinct impress sion that the Rajah comes of the same school that turned out John McGra" or perhaps It was McGraw that started it.
 At any rate. II may explain why II IS generally understood that Nc GraW will turn over the full reins of leadership 10 Hornsby when the grey haired veteran decides to re- tire. lie has given Rogers a pretty free hand this sea son q number of times and the results haven't been lsstisfactory.
 "A lot Of people have the idea that McGraW is hard boiled" Hornsby said. but they have him all wrong.
 Probably they got the notion be- cause Mac Is decisive and forceful in the 1av he does things. He gives orders and expects them 10 be fol- lowed He doesn't do any second guessing If mistake is made on his orders. the player isn't blamed.
 T would rather work for McGraT than any other man in baseball he cause I realize, and so do all the other players. that he's forgotten more baseball than re know.
 There isn't any friction on the club, either. You hear stories about wrangling in the clubhouse or on the bench once in while. They're bunk We may not always work smoothly but there isn't any arsu- or why.
 You know they think I'm hard boiled too. They said that of me when l was managing the Cardinals last year. I don't do any kidding around on the field. if that's what they mean, When I'm out there, it's all business.
 'T like McGraN's methods, 1t wasn't difficult for me to adjust my self 10 the Giants style of play. The game is the same. When Mac puts confluence enough in me 10 let me run the club at times I attempt to follow out his plans just as though he were on the hnnch.'
 There was d minor league player once widely known for his ability 10 boot 'em one time and pull 2 dazzling play the next. He was all ways uncertain. One day he made a particularly brilliant play that pulled the fans out Of their chairs, cheering.
 Take off your cap' said tea am- mate as the applause continued.
 "Nothinc doing" the player re- spondod "One day they want you 10 take off your cap and the next 10 take off rour uniform.'
 Hornsby has tho same attitude. "One day you are bum and the next hero" unused Rogers The crowd never hothers me. I know that inc jcers follow the cheers.
 "I seldom pay any attention to the stands unless somebody gets little too personal. Nobody will relish any personal abuse.
 "T'ut my idea Is that they can yell all they want 10 just so they pay their money 10 see the games. That's husin"ss. If I pay 10 see show I feel have a right to criticize it. If the fans don't like the game they aro welcome 10 squawk. so far az lam concerned.'
