CARDINALS WIN
THIRD GAME OF
CRUCIALSERIES
Giant Clan Has Dropped Six
Of Last Eight Contests With
Pitts and Cards
SHERDEL KNOCKED OUT
Jack Cummings Knocks Out
Home Run in Pinch as Three
Bases Are Loaded
SHERDEL KNOCKED OUT

Ny AUG ]4O0VG10VSQ 1IS0S/
Since John McGraw led his New
York Giants across the Alleghenies
on the latest western invasion things
have been going from bad to worse
for him.
The first foes that the Giants en-
countered were the Pittsburgh Pr
rates, then laundering about in such
fashion that it appeared that the
only reason they weren't in the Ma
tional league cellar was because the
Phils and Boston Braves were still
able to give them lessons in how ball
games can be kicked away.
The Giants bowled over the Cor
sairs in the first game and felt con-
fident that the league lead would be
in their possession before long.
Here the worm turned. The Pirates
played heads up baseball for q
change and took the next three bat
ties Of the series.
Not 80 confident McCraw's men
took the long train trip to St. Louis
where the four-game series which
ended yesterday saw them register
only one victory.
Giants Are Third
AS q consequence the Giants fell
into third place in the standing, six
and a half games back of the on
rushing Cardinals and one behind
the Cincinnati Reds.
The Cards won the last battle Of
the Crucial series" by getting the
Jump on their eastern rivals. Vic
Aldridge was pounded for three
runs in the first inning, five more
crossed the platter in the second and
the end Of the game saw the leaders
on the long end Of an II to 6 score.
Vic didn't stay around to see the end
OF the second inning, Dutch Henry
relieving him in time to let George
Harper. former Giant, hoist . home
run with one on in that frame.
Sherdel Knocked Out
Wee Willie Sherdel, the slow ball
expert, breezed along in fine style
for five innings but in the sixth the
Giants got back into the running by
staging . six-run rally that drove
Sherdel out Of the box. Jack Cum.
mings, pinch hitter, cracked out Z
home run with the bases filled in
this inning. Farmhouse thereupon
relieved the little one and held the
Giants hitless for the remainder Of
the game. Chick Hafey was the big
noise in the Cardinals powerful
punch, getting two doubles and as
many singles in given trips to the
plate.
Rain halted hostilities 1t every
other major league point.

Challenger Will Resume Heavy
Training Again Tonight AZ
ter a 24-Hour Layoff; Rain
Forced Him to Suspend !;
Loses Weight by Day.Train-
ing

Fairhaven, N. j., July 14.-tF-
Refreshed by a twenty-four hour
lay-off, Tom Heeney will resume
boxing tonight, working out under
the glare Of lights.
The ring is in a field adjoining
the barn in which he does his bag
punching, shadow boxing and other
gymnasium exercises, in preparation
for his battle with Gene Tunney.
Rain, which started falling early
in the morning and did not let up un-
til nearly dusk. forced Heeney to
suspend all tr; lining activity yester-
day. He did not move out of his quar-
ters until night, when he went to
Long Branch. N. j., to give a cheer
to Phil Mercurio, one of his sparring
boys in his bout with the veteran
battling Levinsky.
If present plans are carried out,
Heeney will continue to work out
nights until the finish of his train
ing grind. He likes to box at night
because it j. cooler in the open field.
He works so strenuoLsly that he
melted off four to six pounds every
time he performed in the oppressive
heat of midday.
When Heeney climbs through the
ropes to meet Tunney in the Yankee
stadium across his broad shoulders
will be one Of the strangest looking
bath robes ever seen inside the ring.
It is Maori cloak, made of fibre
and feather. and presented to him
by Lady Carroll, widow of Sir James
Carroll, former member Of the New
Zealand parliament. The cloak is
similar to the ones worn by chief
tains Of the native Maori tribesman
in New Zealand, in time Of battle.

WARM WEATHER
PITCHERS GOOD
IN ASSOCIAT 10 n

Chicago, July 14.-rP-1f base
balls adage about pitchers doing real
work during the hot weather months
is true then the hurlers Of the
American association are living up
to traditional batting averages are
any criterion. Virtually all of the
leading hitters of the league saw
their average decline during the
week ending Wednesday.
Sticking, Louisville second base
man, back-slid his way into first
place during the weeks play, losing
seven points for an average of 1881.
However, it was good enough to
move him up from second to first,
when Veach Of Toledo slumped to
third place with an average of 1878,
a drop of 20 percentage points, and
this relinquished his leadership.
Scarritt, St. Paul outfielder, was the
lone regular to better his average
and SO well did he do it that he
threatened Sicking's lead with an
average Of $50, 21-point increase.
Following Sticking, Scarritt and
Veach among the regular players
were: Matthews, indianapolis, 81;
Voter, Minneapolis, 1857; Luce,
Milwaukee, 1855; Haney, Indianap-
oils, .349; Strohm, Milwaukee, .346;
Grigsby, Kansas City, .346; Nc
Menemy, Milwaukee, .346; Wheat,
Minneapolis, .344; Orsatti, Minneap-
oils, .342.
Three teams, two of which are in
the thick of the pennant race, were
tied for team leadership in batting,
each with an average Of 300. Mil
waukee, Columbus and indianapolis
were deadlocked for the leadership
but only three points behind trailed
Toledo and four points to the rear
Of the Mudhens was Minneapolis.
St. Paul passed Columbus in team
fielding to 60 into second place, but
Kansas City held q firm griup on
top position without percentage
points, six more than the runner-up.

to end the weeks play with an av-
erage of .377, which was good for
second place. Gehrig boosted his
standing seven points to take third
place with an average of 1872
Simmons, however, has played in
only AZ games as compared with
Gehrig's so.
Other leading hitters were: Lag

1924; Fothergill, Detroit, 1924; Du-
gan, New York, 1924.
Yanks Still Lead
The Yankees dropped four points
in team batting to .3O4 but they
were still II points in front Of the
Athletics, who boosted their stand
ing five points to .293 and passed
the Cleveland Indians.
The Boston Red Sox continued
their brilliant defensive work to end
the weeks play with an average Of
.976, three points better than the
Browns in runner-up position. The
Yankees pushed themselves from a
tie for sixth place to a tie with the
Athletics for third, six points behind
the leaders.

FROM Big FOUR

Paris, July 14.-(AP)- The
American Davis cup tennis team
which meets the winner of the Italy
Czechoslovakia match in the inter.
zone final here next Friday for the
right to challenge the French will
be chosen from John Hennessey
Francis T. Hunter. George Lott and
William T. Tilden.
Big Bill himself was authority
for this statement today but the
American captain was unprepared
to say whether he and Hunter
would play doubles or what player
will share the singles burden with
him.
This simply means that Junior
Coen's Davis cup year has not yet
arrived ?" Tilden was asked.
Eyes. but miss my guess if he
has to wait much longer" he re-
piled.

help to the St. Louis Browns, has
taken the leadership among Amer

Records including games of We'd

mark Of seven games won and one

bis first trip to this Lake Pleasant

standing rule against training on
Sunday to entertain his guests,
