the series and won four Of the
six games while hitting about
200. The answer is that they
make scoring so tough for the
other fellows that they don't
need a lot of runs to win.
Take those three games they
played in st. Louis. In three
days they scored only Three
times yet they won one game and
were in a hard fight for the
other down to the final putout
in the ninth inning.
They were stopped dead by
the pitching Of Hallahan,
Haines and Grimes, yet they
won one game and came
back east with q lead over
the Cardinals, three victories
against two.
I couldn't see when the battle
started how any team figured to
win a series of games from a
club which had Lefty Grove and
George Earnshaw to do most Of
the pitching. In an advance
article I said it would not sur
prise me if one or the other of
these great pitchers took part in
every game.
The days of travel made such
a thing possible and know how
quickly either one can come back
for relief work after pitching an
entire game.
Grove pitched the entire
first and fourth games, Earn.
shaw went the full distance
in the second and sixth, and
both of them worked In the
fifth.
Only in the third game did
Connie Mack fail to call on one
or both of his aces. Naturally I
did not expect to see such mar
velous pitching as Earnshaw de-
liVered with % runless innings in
succession and only two runs in
IS innings.
But I did believe that he would
be too much for the Cardinals,
Just as he was for the batters in
our league through the season.
Grove, too, figured to be too
much for the Cardinals and he
certainly lived up to the advance

Tad HOward's Rendezvous
Inaple-wallOpers scored over
their deadliest District Pin
League rivals, the champion
King Pins, and thereby
spurted to enough lead on
which to work.
It was the first defeat King

winning the first two tits, the

every man hitting sizable counts.
They came right back with 6O2
and closed the act with 572,
against Campbell's nob'S 532,

set was 1884.
AL Works led the winners with

362 was the King Pin top score.
Meyer Davis and Lucky Strike

Meyer Davis winning the roll
off. The Luckies came back to
take the third 593 to $50. The
Musicians had rocketed to 500 in

Texas Gains Three Congressman

Texas gains three seats in congress as a result Of
the new apportionment based upon the census figures
OF 1880. Texas has Is. Washington advises that the
representation OF 30 states in the house Of represen-
tatiVes viii be affected by the reapportionmenu fig
ures announced BY President Hoover unless congress
changes the existing law by March 4 Twenty-one
states will lose q seats. Eleven gain, including Cali
fornia, with nine; Michigan, four; Texas, three, and
New York and New Jersey and Ohio with two each.
Connecticut. Florida, North Carolina. Oklahoma and
Washington gain enc each. 1t is said the new appcr-
;ionment will result in vide changes in political
strength, the electoral college and state delegations
to national political conventions.
Cities, where the anti-prohibitionsts are strong,
will have greater power and some OF the agricul-
tural states in which prohibitionists find much Of
their strength will lose. These new figures were de-
termined by the secretary Of commerce on the basis
OF the 1880 census, with the population placed at
l22.0s3 ASS. These are the losing state: Missouri,
8; Georgia, ?; Iowa. 2; Kentucky, 2; Pennsylvania, 2;
Alabama, /; Indiana, /: Kansas, 1: Maine. 1; Mas
sachusetts, 1; Minnesota, /; Mississippi, !: Nebraska,
/; North Dakota. i; Rhode Island. 1: South Carolina,
1; South Dakota, 1; Tennessee. 1; Vermont. /; vir-
GINA, /; Wisconsin, /.
A reminder that the reapportionment will be the
first since the house seats were rearranged in 1918 on
the basis Of the 1910 census.
AS for the Texas gain OF three, il is safe to pre-
dict that the three will be elected at large. There
are 81 members OF the Texas senate. There is a po-
tential candidate for congress in each district and in
many Of the districts two to four potential candidates.
There are Texas cities each entitled to a congress
man. There is West TeXas-all that Texas west Of
Fort Worth-where the people are demanding all
three of the new representatives on account Of the
vast increase Of population. There IS a Lower Rio
Crande Valley and an Upper Rio Grande Valley.
Yes. there will be a merry bear fight under the big
dome of the Texas capitol while the And enjoys its

Col. Capone Feeds The Poor

Chicago has one of the largest free soup kitchens
in America 1t is said that Col. Al Capone with some
help from friends is financing the kitchen and feeding
about 100 men daily. This kitchen is not identified
with any of the various relief agencies. Three meals
a day are served. varying from coffee and rolls for
breakfast to soup, stew and coffee for dinner. No at
tempt is made to sort out the habitual buns from
those who can't find work. No questions are asked.
The food is merely handed out as long as ii lasts or
as long as the line lasts.
Col. Capones critics are fond OF saying that he has
a gizzard but is without a heart. If he is feeding
100 hungry men daily he must be the poesessor of a
remarkable giZzard.

TINE current performance Of Harry
Seibold, veteran pitcher Of the
Boston Braves, Is one of the
most amazing things in the Ma
tional League struggle. Back Ia the
days when Washington had q pair Of
pitchers named Nick Altrock and Al
Schacht and q young left-handed
hurler appeared on the Boston Red Sox
roster as @. Ruth and was considered
a good enough batsman TO appear in
a world series game as pinch hitter,
Socks Seibold was regular hurler with
the Philadelphia Athletics.
A decade ago Seibold disappeared into
the minor leagues and little more was
heard Of him until he appeared at the
top Of the International League list
with Reading in 1928. The Chicago
Cubs called him in from their farm to
use as trading material and sent him
to the Braves. Seibold had q fair sea-
son last year, winning IL games and
losing II, but 1t was not until the
began stepping out.
Wins Seven Games.
So far In q race only two months old,
Seibold has pitched nine complete
games and has won seven Of them. He
has not yet been removed from the
hill, taking his complete turn every
five or six days with q remarkable
degree of success in q close race. He
held the Phillies TO six hits yesterday
and won his seventh victory by S-to-l
score IN the first game the teams have
been able to play this week, giving
usually only one hit an inning, Seibold

BALL SERIES MEAT
FOR EASTERN HIGH
Wins All Games DecisiveIy
to Take Championship Third
Time in Row.

r. ASTERN, which yesterday won
r its third straight public high
school base ball title without
the loss of a single game,
humbling Western, Is to 4, was clearly
the class of the series. The Light Blue
captured all its games in decisive style.
In addition to the victory over western
the Lincoln Park schoolboys drubbed
Tech, 20 to 4; Central, 81 to 5, and
Business, Is to 6.
In all departments Eastern presented
clever performers, though 1t was in
pitching, catching and the infield that
its strength was most pronounced.
In Dick Lanahan, slim southpaw, and
Bob Snyder, catcher, the Light Blue had
a nifty battery, one that was by far the
best of the series. Bonnie Mccullough,
little flrst-sacker, was consistent per-
former, both extensively and defensiVely.
Lyman McAboy and Danny KeSsler,
who alternated at second base and
shortstop, also put up strong games,
though Kessler's fielding was somewhat
erratic, and Toby Taylor, third baseman,
did well. Jimmy Hayden's work in the
outfield was Of high order but the other
Eastern gardeners did not show 90
much.
Wins Twelve In Row.
Yesterdays win marked the twelfth
straight in diamond championship COM
petition for Eastern. The Light Blue
sure has hogged the diamond spotlight
and it will have good nucleus at hand
again next Spring.
Eastern got of to a hve-run lead In
the first two innings against Western.
The scholastics from out Georgetown
way struck back to come within a run
of Eastern at 5-4 in the fourth but in
its half of that frame Guyon's team
tailed three runs and then added three
more In the seventh and two more In
the eighth to lookup the decision.
As usual the Eastern boys welded
their big bats Justify and effectively.
Snyder, Mccullough and Bernie Smith,
reserve outfielder, each clouted for the
circuit for the Light Blue. There was
a runner on each time. Snyder also
got double and two singles.
The score:
