dents During Contests.

New York. July 27.-tP-An cpl
demic OF injuries. suffered in actual

sariiy critical. The day before Paul
Waner. Pirate right fielder. was
slightly injured when he crashed
into wall at the Polo Grounds but
he recovered in time to aid the
Pirates in their victory over the
Giants yesterday.
At Detroit, Chick Galloway, De
troit untility infielder. was struck
on the head by a ball pitched by
Haskell Billings. Tiger moundeman,
during batting practice. Although he
was not believed to be seriously in
iured Galloway was taken to a hos

the Cincinnati Reds. was carried off
the field at Philadelphia when ~

Phils. in the ninth. Just how
