Hack" Wilson, generally accred-
tied with being the strongest man

to quell the offensive chin music.
He got in several good blows on Ray
Kolp before he was dragged off and

He has long been recognized as

Jakey was getting about all the

was that he had no Joe Pate, no

Major Teams Moue
To IntersectionaL
Series; Cards Lose
(By the Associated Press

Guns were spiked generally along
the baseball front yesterday as the
major league armies moved into
position for another series Of inter-
sectional battles, but the Cardinals
found time to lose their tenth
straight while waiting for the 9TH
er teams to swing into action. The
champions were accommodated by
nobody but the PhillieS, who oblig-
ingly dropped twenty out of twen-
ty-two to st. Louis last year.
Jess Haines made as if to slip
a fast one past Charlie Klein, first
Philadelphia batsman in the ninth
inning, after Master Klein had re-
fused to bite at two wide hooks.
The fast one was just to Klein's
liking, and he drove it high over
the right field wall of Baker bowl
to give the Phils a 10 to 9 decision.
1t was his twentieth home run,
and enabled him to keep pace with
Chick Hafey of st. Louis, who pick
ed UP his own twentieth earlier in
the game. Bottomley and Whitney
were other home run hitters.
The defeat left the Cardinals
sagging at the bottom Of the first
division, only three games ahead of
an improved Brooklyn team. The
reverse marked the sixteenth for
st. Louis in the last eighteen
games.
Reds VS.. Giants
The Cardinals will remain in
Philadelphia for a full series, and
the Cubs will invade the citadel Of
the Braves today, but the rest of
the intersectional openings will be
delayed until tomorrow. The Reds,
who hold the Giants in no awe, will
come to the Polo Grounds for two
games on the Sabbath after a
farewell brush with Pittsburgh to-
day, and the fast-moving Pirates
will settle themselves at Ebbets
Field, Brooklyn will entertain at
the Polo Grounds today.

FORD LISTS
: SAFETY RULES
Motorists Told Not to Take
Right-of- Way Too
Seriously

AS a contribution towards greater
safety and o pleasant driving
conditions on the highways Of the
country this summer, the Ford Mo-
tor Company has listed twelve rules
as suggestions to motorists and has
distributed them to dealers over the
country.
Announcement of the suggestions
was made today by Drew Patteson,
Ford dealer in this city, who will
display the list prominently in his
place of business.
These rules" said Mr.. Patteson,
ARE merely common sense as ap-
piled to automobile driving. Every
experienced motorist knows all of
them. 1t is u hope, however, that
by stating them concisely and post
ing them where they will come to
the attention of a great many mo-
florists, we can so emphasize them
as to make a real contribution to-
wards greater highway safety"
The twelve rules are:
Courtesy comes first. Consider the
rights and privileges of others.
Keep your mind on your driving,
and anticipate sudden emergencies.
Learn the "feel' Of having your
car under control.
Obey all traffic and parking
regulations.
Keep to the right, and comply with
road markings and signs.
Signal for stops and turns
Watch the car ahead.
Slow down at crossings, schools,
dangerous places.
Never pass cars on hills, curves,
crossings.
Adapt your driving to road condi-
tionS-rain, ice, soft spots and ruts.
1t doesn't pay to take the right
of way" to seriously.
When you drive, remember the
times when you're a pedestrian.
Know the law. 1t was passed for
your protection.
1T is estimated that 10000, 900
persons will tour on American high
ways this summer" Mr.. Patteson
continued. Recognition of the
rights of others will be essential.
Many unpleasantries and accidents
will be avoided if motorists, at times
of close situations, will recall these
rules and act accordingly. They are
the recommendations of the Ford
Motor company offered to give
greater peace of mind to those who
travel by automobile"

INDIANS LEAD
TEXAS LEAGUE
Idle Into First Place As Rain
Halts Contest; Cubs
Beat Beaumont
lRv the Associated Press

10y Il1C AOOOCldOCO IACOcP
The Texas league standing today
was so much changed the Athletics
had a hard time recognizing it.
The San Antonio Indians, a few
days ago proposes, were the pow
erful Redman at the top Of the
ladder.
The Indians were in their COM
handing position in exactly the
same way Shreveport was there
yesterday-it rained and they
couldn't lose.
Waco, leader a few days ago,
came back yesterday. The Cubs de-
feated the Beaumonters, a to 8.
Beaumont seemed to have the
game sewed up in the ninth inning
with the score 8 to one. With
two men on bases, Felix Vigare up
set everything by shooting a homer
over the left field fence.
The first half champion Dallas
Steers didn't look so good as the
Fort Worth Panthers played good
baseball to win, z to 3. The champs
today held seventh place with a
percentage of 1873.
Wichita Falls took a 10 to 8
game from Shreveport at Spud-
vile. Despite the big score and a
total of six errors, the game was
played in an hour and fifty min
utes. the fastest game of the day
in the league.

Yankees to Play
43rd Sunday On
Matamoros Field

Intent on revenge, the Browns
vile Yankees will invade Mata-
moros Sunday for their third game
with the 43rd Mexican cavalry. The
game is scheduled to get under way
at 8 p. m. on the parade grounds.
The teams have clashed twice SO
far with the result that each have
one decision. The Yanks ran away
with a 81 thinning victory in the
first contest. The 43rd came back
last Saturday to set the Yanks on
their launches for a go count
The 43rd has been considerably
reinforced by former Tiger players.
They are unquestionably one Of
the strongest amateur aggregations
in the Valley now. They have TAX
en- the Hatters, Brownsville champ
ions, into camp in addition to
Soundly trouncing most other oppo-
Sition.
Schafner will probably be on the
hillock for the Yankees Sunday
with Young behind the platter to
take his Slants.

GOLF Wins HIM
WIFE, FORTUNE
Francis Stevens, 19, Steps
Into Limelight In Calf
ornia Tournament

DEL MONTE, Cal, July 6.-P-
From the background of medic
Gritty to a position of golfing prom
inence has stepped Francis Stew
ems, Jr., a chap of 10 summers, who
promises to make nor than an
ordinary bid in the national ANA
teur championship at Pebble
Beach.
This curly haired youths golf
won him a bride, a wad of money,
a stock exchange seat and consid-
cradle renown all in a few months.
An indulgent father provided the
tangible items-the sport pages in
PRODUCED the lad to a public who
had never heard of him before.
The golfing ability of Stevens
progress came to light during the
1929 California amateur champion
ship when he finished as runner-up
after wading through a field of ia
vored stars. His fine game and
GOODNESS under fire won him the
admiration of critics whose con-
sensus was that, under proper con-
ditions, he should go far in the
game.
The Los Angeles boy has been
playing and practicing for years,
but never befre had entered a ma
jor tournament. When he wanted
to get married a couple of months
ago, his dad said, BEAT me on the
links and we'll talk it over"
He did that and entered the state
amateur competition with his golf
ing bride in the gallery. When the
youth worked his way to the semi
finals the father became excited
and said, MAKE the semi-finaIs
and you get $4,000" The boy COL
lected. He lost out in the finals,
but a seat on the Los Angeles ex-
change is promised him when he
is 81 years old.
To more thoroughly familiarize
the junior member with the haz-
ardouS Pebble Beach course the
Stevens family has taken up resi-
dence on the Monterey peninsula.

SPORTS TALK
Speaking of baseball

Speaking of baseball
A hectic horsehide wrangle is in
store for fans who journey to Mata-
moros Sunday afternoon to see the
Brownsville Yankees take on the
43rd Mexican cavalry nine in their
third game. Each holds a decision
now. The Fort Brown all-stars cop
ped their first encounter 81 in IL
innings and the Mexican cavalry
men came back for a win in the
second contest last Saturday, white
washing the locals, 90.
The 43rd was a bit tired on the
afternoon they lost to the Yam
KEGS due to a game earlier in the
day with the Palmer Hat Makers.
They trOunced the Brownsville
champs by a healthy score. Sun
day the Yankees state, they will
be out to settle for once and for
all their supremacy over the 43rd.
The combined forces of the Tigers
and Hat Makers slipped over a cou-
pie of wins here on the fourth. They
took the Sinton Grey SoX back Of
the Woodpile for 60 and AZ wal
lopings. Salinas hurled beautiful
ball in the last contest. He had
his first one hopping on the corners.
Although he was nicked for eight
hits, he bore down in the pinches
and was given good support afield.
Clements Garcia's big war club was
a potent factor in the locals, vic
tories. Clements, although playing
with an injured leg hobbled to first
safely three times in the last game.
Dick Jeffries got the old salary
wing stretched out at McAllen on
the fourth and the result was that
the San Ben,to PentagOns won
1914 over n McAILen Legion
naires. Dick, former Valley league
twirler, had the Macks eating out
of his hand. The San Benitans
took a decided liking to Lefty"
Griffith's slants and pounded his
wrong arm slants to all corners
of the diamond. The fly in the
ointment, however, is easily found
by a glance at the box score. The
Macks erred no less than nine
times.
Sunday the Pents will tangle with
Mission on the Harrington fair
grounds.
"Arty" Helen Wills again reigns
Great Britain as the greatest wo-
an singles performer. The final
event Friday turned out to be
an all California affair. Miss

Mighty Buck Herzog
Still Holds Forth
In Athletic Field

NEW YORK, July 6.-(P)-Once a
ball player never the same again.
Particularly in the case Of so i'm
petuouS a star as Charles Lincoln
HerZog, three times a Giant and at
intervals a Brave, Cub, a Red and
an Oriole.
This accomplished member of
John McGraw's Speed Boy Cham
pions" of 1911-12-13 quit the big
league doamond in 1920 and retired
a year later from Baltimore.
He blossomed out as a baseball
writer but was often on the field
shagSlng flies when his duty lay
in tbs press box. Even then he was
not cured and now the mighty Buck
holds down the post of athletic di-
rector for the B. and o. railroad, a
position created for him.
MI. Hsczyg low is quite Gigni-
fled but tie fans still recall his ex-
ploitS OF a generation ago. Er.
Herzog never wa one to sec his
rights imposed upon by an umpire.
He was, in hlS prime, one C the
greatest impromptu scrappers Of
baseball. He would, as the saying
went, fight at the drop of q hat.
If necessary he would drop the hat
himself.
There are those who have seen
the B. and o. employees e. suddenly
baseball mad to bear witness that
Charles Lincoln. in spite of his of
flee and appurtenances, still takes
time out to wrangle for a point on
any railroad diamond which claims
his presence.
For recreation, he goes to the ball
games and bellows for the blood Of
the gentry in the dark blue lounge
suits.
