stil giving thanks to the Cubs reserve

Lester Bell Is thu latest to Jump into
an emergency job and deliver. Bell,
who was obtained from the Braves with
the idea Of using him at third base

were playing so brilliantly.
Bell was sent to first base yesterday
to replace Charlie Grimm, who was
spiked in the second game Of Sstur-

the Brooklyn series, hitting two doubles

Boy Russell Turns Out
To Be q Bee to O'Brien Team

GO important was the game that
- three umpires were used. Mcclure
was behind the bat, Willie Watt on
first base and Bud Fisher furnished an
ample background at third base.
MANY and varied are the theories
1V1 advanced by sandlot sages con-
corning the failure of District
representative to get anywhere in the
American Legion regional series. Under
present plans, something like 20 teams
are to be rounded up for next years
local series.
It isn't apparent how this will help.
True, the team that wins will have to
wade through large field, but will the
brand of competition be as strong If
more than twice as many teams are
added and draw from the midget ball
players?
TTHERELL be plenty doing this week.
i Today. Naval Hospital and Navy
Yard play the frst of a three

championship.

this series with Navy Yard. for the
Gobs have shown distinct signs of fall
tering lately Last week they blew
chance to win the flag and were barely
able to stagger under the wire TO tie
with the Gunmakers.
DOBBY LYON is earning the reputa-
- ton Of being a great "out-of-town"
pitcher. Bobby has been taking 1t
on the chin quite a bit here, but when
pitching for Bill Flester's French A. c.
against out-of-town teams, he has been
we'll nigh unbeatable.
Yesterday he shut out the strong
Everett Waddy team of Richmond
with only one hit, single in the eighth
inning, as the Frenchies won, to 0.
