The President showed great interest

States east Of the Mississippi River.
This team, which wins the honors In
washington. then will compete with a
similar team from the West for the
junior world series championship.
"A half million boys are participating

Cards Drop to Fourth Place,
Sensation of June IN Majors
JACK WHALEN.

Cincinnati didn't get anywhere be-
cause 1t was last in all except the Sec
ond week. Boston was seventh In all
except the second week. Neither Of
the clubs can win the pennant unless
all others die. .-
Brooklyn began sixth, dropped to last
place, went to sixth. then to fifth, then
back to sixth. The boys had oppor-
tunity again to assert that no manager,
with so little, does SO well as Uncle
Robby. That Is nice for Robby, but
sour dough for the Brooklyn fans.
Philadelphia started in fourth place
and finished in sixth. The Pililadel-
phia pitchers and rough sports on the
team were responsible.
The sensation In the National League
during June was the drop Of st. Louis
from first place to fourth. It doesn't
look good, because st. Louis trouble Is
aging pitchers. -, <
Pittsburgh and Chicago plugged
around from first to third and back
again, and each of them played bail
about alike. Chicago had q grip on
first place on the last Saturday, of the
month.
The Giants never looked dangerous.
They threatened lot against teams
that are easy to defeat. In spite of all
they could do, they did not get above
third place and most Of the time were
in fourth,

BISHOP OF MACKMEN
MAY WEAR GLASSES

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, July MAX
Bishop. star second baseman Of the
Athletics, who fell into Q slump over
the week end against New York and
Washington, may be compelled to wear
glasses, 1t was learned late yesterday.
Upon his return from his home in
Baltimore, where he rested since Sun
day, Bishop told about a peculiar film
which has appeared over his eyes, in
terferring with his vision and making
his usual first-class play at second base
almost impossible.
Bishop said he not only Is troubled
with his eyes, but a tooth started to
ache over the week end, making it i'm
possible for him to give the proper at
tention to the game.
"On Monday in the game against the
Yankees could not see the ball until
it was right in front Of me-" said
Bishop. Several times I misiudeed
ground balls, but I thought the, Aim
over my eyes was only temporary. Then
the same thing happened in Washing
ton. Later visited dentist in BaIti-
more. and he told me to consult an
oculist here. I'd rather this happen at
any other time than right now, when
we are In the thick Of pennant fight y
Manager Mack denied that Bishop
mad been benched, but said Max asked

BY JOHN b. FOSTER.
THE month of June was a dreary
period in the. American League.


Detroit was fourth every week
i end Of the season. The Tigers
played games in. which they
batted other pitchers of the mound
and at the end Of each week they were
still in fourth place.
Washington spent four Of the five
weeks in sixth place. The team kicked
it's way out of seventh place at the end
of the first week and then hung fire.
Cleveland never left fifth place all of
the month and was anchored there for
from sixth place to seventh at the end
of the first week and stayed there. It
Is likely 1t will continue to stay there.
Boston has been last for so long that
it doesn't matter much, especially as
the team has never indicated that it
can win enough to get out of its pres
ent bunker.
Yanks Are Indifferent.
Watching New York trying to come
back may interest some of the fans.
There isn't a doubt that the league has
its interest in watching the Athletics
remain in front. It is a. novelty after
the experiences of the last two years.
The Yankees have been good and
they have been bad, but they were
never anything like perfect in June.
For the nrSI TWO weeks Iley were
third; for the next two, second, and for
the last, third again.
ST.. Louis had only fair month, as
the Browns were second for two weeks,
third for tive weeks, and back to Sec
ond in the last week, but after all, there
was nothing in that June campaign
among the roses that gave rise to any
possibility of championship won by
st. Louis, unless the Browns can steal
as much from some two clubs as the
Athletics did from Washington and
Boston. The latter are the berries on
which the Philadelphia Bear fattened
The National League had more fun
out of its fight.

1928 FLAG WCTORS
CAN'T LEAD JULY 4
Teams Ahead on That Day
Usually Win-A's Sure

BY HERBERT w. BAKER.
Associated Press Sports Writer.

TIME Fourth of july, time -honored
point for taking pennant sound
ings, is close at hand and If
Il base ball tradition holds true
neither the New York Yankees
nor the st. Louis Cardinals VIII repeat
tories of last year.
Base ball tradition has 1t that the
leaders on July 4 are the pennant win
ners of late September. There have
been exceptions TO this rule, but they
have been surprisingly few and far be-
tween.
AS the races stand now neither the
Yankees. nor the Cardinals can reach
the top of their respective leagues by
July f. The Yankees languish in third
place In the American League, nine fun
games back of the league-leading Phila-
delphia Athletics. The Cardinals trail
the Chicago Cubs, acf-setters OF the
National circuit, by i've games.
Whatever happens between now and
independence day, the Athletics can
not be ousted from the American League
lead. The Cubs hold on first place in
the National League is not secure.
DOME Bush's Pittsburgh Pirates trail
ing by only half a game.
The National League situation re-
manned in status quo yesterday, as the
Cubs and Cardinals, meeting IN the
leagues only battle. struggled to q villa

batting star of the day. He crashed out

chal's pinch home run, with Koenig on
base In the seventh. gave the champions
q 3-to-2 verdict over the Boston Red
Sox. Paschals homer enabled the
Yanks to shake the spell that Billy
Bayne had woven over them this sea-
son. Bayne already had beaten the
champions twice and seemed to be well
on the way to a third victory when
Paschal came through. Herb Pennock
was given credit for the victory, al
though he was out Of the game when
the winning runs were scored, Paschal
being a pinch batsman for him.
