GRIMM WILL NOT PLAY WITH CUBS
Captain Of Cubs Ordered to Rest
 for Coming World Series

Chicago, Sept. 27 PrUnless he defies his doctors orders. Captain Charley Grimm will not operate at first base for the Cubs when they return to action tomorrow.
 Grimm's left hand, in which q small bone was fractured more than q month ago at the Polo Grounds, New York, has healed, but the club physician told him every additional day of rest would make him more certain of being in shape for the championship series with the Ath- letics.
 Manager Joe Mccarthy has listen cd to the advice of the doctor. and decided that Grimm shall lay off until Tuesday, when the Cubs and Reds resume their series at Cincin- natl.
 It also was decided by the Cub manager that Gabby Hartnett will confine his world series activity to pinch hitting. Hartnett caught in last Sundays engagement with the Giants, and got into the exhibition contest at Aurora, H., Tuesday. and since that time has been unable 10 lift his ailing throwing arm higher | than his shoulder.

By the Associated Press,
 With the baseball world still mourning the death of Miller Jerome Higgins, action along the major league front again was more or less perfunctory yesterday in the two decisions reached in each circuit. A fifth game, involving the White SoX and the Indians at Cleveland, was postponed on account of ram.
 Going into battle for the first time since 1917 under leadership other than that of Huggins, the Yankees pounded out 10 to 5 victory over the Senators at Washington, and entrained early in the evening for New York to attend the funeral of their dead pilot.
 The champion Athletics had lit tie difficulty in turning back the Red Sox in Boston by to 3, far less than the score might indicate. George EarnshaW allowed just four hits in six innings, earning his 25rd victory, and then gave way 10 Rubo Walberg who permitted the Red Hose to bunch five drives for three runs in the eighth.
 The game was virtually decided in the first inning when Al simmons hit his 32nd home run with two mates aboard. By running his mark to 23 victories, Earnshaw broke tie which had existed between him. self and Pat Malone for the inter league leadership.
 Dazzy Vance once more failed to go the route, and Philadelphia won it's fourth straight from the Robins by 12 to 3. Lester Sweetland was the winning pitcher, The victory lifted the Phllies over the Robins and into fifth place by q margin of half a game This is the first time since 1917, in the fading days Of Alex the Great and Pat Moran. that the Phils have been so high one week from the finish. The 1917 Phillies were runners-up 10 the cham mpton Giants.
 Selphs single in the ninth drove home the winning run for St. Louis in a to l victory over Pittsburgh. aul Waner's homer in the first half of the same round had tied the score. Clarence Mitchell and Hal Haid outpitched Jess Petty. The defeat left the Pirates with q margin of only two and one-half games over the Giants in the race for second place

Preparing for two hard and rough games over the week-end, one against the High school eleven to- morrow and the other on Sunday in MiddlctoWn against the Tufts A. C. team, the New Britain Blues will go through a practice session tonight at 6 o'clock at Willow Brook park. The team will be put through a stiff sig nal drill by the head coach, Dr. Frank Zwick. and it is imperative that every member of the squad be on hand.
 Coach ZWick has stated during the past week that ill view of the two important games facing the local squad every candidate for a posi- ton on the team will see plenty of action. The game with the High school eleven on Saturday will be one of the bitterest encounters of the entire season while the Blues on Sunday will meet an aggregation that won the championship of Mid diotoWn last season.
 Coach George Cassidy is grooming his High school team for a victory Saturday. Both he and his charge are inspired with a desire to win this game above all others. Coach Cassidy wants to win to have the laugh on his friendly enemy, Dr. ZWick, while the High school play CTS are anxious to pin defeat on the team that boasts several former high school stars in it's lineup. These include Zaleski, Grip and Al Feng- Ter former high school quarterback and present captain of the Blues.
 Coach SWick, after three weeks of steady practice, feels that his team has had scrimmaging enough to go into real battle. He knows that the squad needs polishing up on signals and for that reason he has called the workout for tonight. The drill will be a secret one because of the liability of there being scouts from the high school team on the field.
 The game Saturday afternoon will start promptly at 2:30 o'clock and q good crowd of fans will be on hand to see it. One group will be out to soe the high school team in action while the other will be pulling for the Blues to come through with q win.

JIMMY F0XX IS
 BABY OF SERIES
Athletic Star May Prove to Be a
 Rather LuSty Infant

Philadelphia, Sept. 97 (P}-Jimmy FoXx will be the baby of the 1929 world series, but he may prove a lusty infant. The Maryland boy who led the American league in batting for months before being dis placed by his tcammate, Al Sim mons, will be 22 years of age Octo- Der 22. His world series check from Commissioner Landis will be available if he wishes to purchase himself a birthday present.
 Connie Mack almost robbed the cradle to get FoXx. Another great home run hitter. Frank Baker. the old Athletics third baseman, now a Maryland farmer, sent him to the Athletics from the Eastern Shore league and there never was a thought that he belonged anywhere else.
 The only difficulty Manager Mack found was in discovering a place where "Foxxy," as he calls his young star, could do the most good. He was first baseman. third baseman, had fling at catching and then tried the outtteld when h. vas only a juvenile down home"
 Ticketcd as a catcher he came 10 of coal to Newcastle if there ever was one, for the one thing Mr. Mack did not need was a catcher.
 The fine sure hands of FoXX made him a great intield prospect and last year he played both third and first base. He was tentatively assigned 10 third when the players reported for spring taining this year but the boss of the Athletics left his permanent assignment open
 'FoXXy can play anywhere" Con- nie said at Fort Myers. Its just g question of finding where we need him most First, third, the outftel1, it makes no difference to FoXXy."
 As usual the wise old man was right. When the situation adjust ed itself finally of it's own accord. FoXXy was on first base and his work had a great part in the win ming of the championship. The youth is not yet a great fielder but his batting is impressive.
 He swings from his heels and ha is a threat every time he goes to bat. He gets extra base hits fre- quently from bad balls that a more conservative hitter would scorn 70 try to hit, Three times he has driven balls over the left field stands at Shibe Park, great blows in any league.
 FoXX is modest and never uses the personal pronoun 'I.' When he has anything to say. and these occasions are rare, he speaks of ''Wc' and includes all the Athletics.
 Certainly, we'll hit" he said. when suggestions were made that the Cub pitchers had troubled a lot of good hittors in the Nationai league, "weIl take our cuts and the hits will follow.'
