 Babe Ruth is nothing If not obliging. He has slugegd three hom- CTS in the past two days. and they've won two ball games for the New York Yankees
 On Wednesday Wiley Moore need ed three runs in the last inning to save himself from defeat at the hands of the up and coming Chica- go White Sox. The Tanks got two men on base and they scored ahead of Babe when he slammed homer No. 3s high and dry in the right field stands.
 Against the same White Sox yes terday Herb Pennock was unsteady most of the way, but the Babe pull ed him through to a six to four vic tory by propelling his s7th and 3Sth clouts into the stands, each time with Earle Combs on base.
 These two Ruthian drives put the Big Bam" 27 games. 29 days and eight home runs ahead of his 1927 schedule, when he slammed 60 Tor a new record.
 Alphone Thomas pitched we'll for the Sox but the Tanks are jinx to him. He's been beaten by the cham- pions II times in the last two sea- sons. and II times in exactly the number of times he's faced them.
 The Athletics shaved half game of the champions lead by turning back the St. Louis Browns in both en Is of a double hill, to c and { to !, the latter in II innings. Both games were pitchers battles. Rube Walberg gave up only two hits in the first game and Sam Gray only four. Al Simmons home run with Mickey Cochrane on base in the first inning sent Gray down to defeat. Simmons also won the second game. q duel between Eddie Rommel and Blaeholder. when he singled in the l1th with the bases filled.
 Owen Carroll pitched the Detroit Tigers to a g to 3 triumph over the Washington Senators in the first game of a double header but Milt Gaston reversed matters in the sec ond, the Senators walking oft with an easy to win.
 Ed Morris registered his 18th pitching victory of the pear as the Boston Red Sox even the series with Cleveland, 3 to 2 in II innings. Rol' linss double, a sacrifice fly by Ker Williams and Taitt's singe account ed for the winning marker.
 Over in the National league the pace setting St. Louis Cardinala added more woe to the unlucky Phillies. The Cards just barely nosed out a 6 to 5 verdict that marked the Phil's 11th straight defeat. Hafey and Harper of the Cards, and Hurs, of the Phils, each hit their 12th home run of the season.

R. X E. nosed out the American Paper Goods team in the feature game of the Industrial Baseball league at Walnut Hill park last night. In the second contest on Diamond No. 2, Landers and Fafnirs put up 2 weird exhibition with Lam ders oozing out on top of the heap by 1s to i. score.
 Ralsswtn :, Paper Goods
 Weak defensive play and poor base running by the American Paper Goods team offset the splendid pitching of Joe Mccormick and the Kensington club bowed before the Russwins. The game was we'll played throughout and developed into . pitchers battle with McCor- mick, although the losing twirler. having a slight edge over his op- ponent. Johnson. Only one run was earned off Mccormick and he famed 10 batters.
 The play which was chiefly re- sponsible for the Paper Goods downfall was the failure of Maguder to touch second base in the third inning after he had made a long drive to left field which was good for an easy home run. He had crossed the plate before the ball had been returned to an infielder.
 The Paper Goods stepped into the lead in the opening frame when after two were out, Warren walked and scored when Jim Mccormick hit a triple to right center. The winner, tied the count in the third when Coagrove reached first on . miser. able error by Williams. He stole sec ond and third and scored on 2 wild throw by Sullick.
 In the fifth the Russwins went in. to the lead. Noonan walked, moved to second when Johnson was hit b, . pitched ball. stole third from where he counted on Morelli's dou' ble to right center. In justice to Jos Mccormick 1t might be said hert that 1t was not unreasonable tt have expected Mattson to catci Morellrs drive.
 The winners final ally came tr the sixth on . single by Budnick his advance to second on Joe Nc Cormick's wild heave to first, an in field out and sacrifice fly.
 The Paper Goods scored one rul in the eighth on Warren's triple >t' deep right and Johnson's error which was . wild heave on . thirt strike. This also allowed William to reach first.

Jim Mccormick. Williams. Warner Un,- pire-Fitzpatrick.
 Landers IS. Fafnirs IF
 In as weird an exhibition of baseball as has been seen in some years in this city. the Landers team defeated the Fafnir screw by 8 13 to IF score. Despite the fact that Landers led to in the first two innings, going into the ninth, Faf- nirs were in the drivers seat with the count 12 to 10 and the Univer- sals had to stage desperate three run rally to get into the forefront again. Fafnirs were unable to score in the last half of the ninth and Landers won.
 The game was featured by every- thing that should not happen in baseball. Ray Begley pulled the prize play of the game when, with three men on base, he occupying second, he stole third, forcing out i Vincent. Mckernan came next when. with Harry Hillstrand on first, Me- Herman hit . single to right center and then ran Hillstrand of the bag. Joe Fitzpatrick contributed another freak when he clouted the ball into right field for a clean home run and then failed to touch home plate. be- ing declared out when Kenure fol- lowed him down the line and touch- ed him with the ball.
 At the same time. sparkling catches were made by Jimmy O'Brien in left field. "Winky'' Ven- turo at second, Eddie Goeb and many others. Because it was tho veterans who were making the game
 weird the fans were agreed that the terrific heat was affecting the play fers.
 Belanger started on the mound for
 Fafnirs but he was shelled off before
 the second inning was over. Landers
 scored eight runs off him. Then
 Fafnirs started. Nester had been sailing along nicely for two innings
 when, in the third. walk, fvo singles and a sacrifice fly gave Faf- mfrs four. In the fourth. Fafnira scored three more on three hits and
 AH eFTOC anu Ncotc gave way So McKernan.
 Zembko who relieved Belanger for
 Fafnirs, held Ianders scoreless for four innings. Fafnirs got another run in the fifth and added four in the sixth. McKernan gave way in the sixth to Vincent who. after strik- ing out two men. had to resign from the slab Nester returned. He quit with one out in the seventh after
 two hits off him and Billy Preisser went in the box to finish the game as the winning pitcher.
 Going into the seventh. the score stood IF to in favor of Fafnirs. Continued on Following Pase)
