SHAMROCK SMOOTH
IN LIGHT BREEZE
Gives Impression That u. S.
viii Have Difficulty De-
Tending Cup.
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

n EXPORT, r. L, August 27.-
M Whatever Shamrock may do
In weather that is heavy or
fairly heavy, it is certain that
she is going to be tough customer in
light weather for any of the American
sloops which may be chosen TO meet
her.
While the four Americas Cup de-
tenders were rolling on the ocean
swells IL miles out at sea, waiting Tor
a breeze that never came yesterday, q
series of three gruff whistle blasts from
the Corsair directed attention to the
Upton challenger, which had just ap-
peared out of the middle of the heet
of American sloops and attending craft.
The challenger was carrying pre-
cisely the same sails worn by the de-
tenders, which is to say she wore a
mainsaiI and two lower headsails. That
she moved more easily and with ap-
preciably better Roadway under the
catSpaw conditions was apparent even
to casual observers. The huge reach
ing lib caught all the wind. There
was and never has been seen better
cut sail in this country than that beau
tiful kite
The mainsail as well showed none of
the fiuttering usuaN noted in a big
sail when the wind fragil. 1t caught
and held everything. At the same time
the fact that the challenger's huh is
splendidly designed for going through
the water with a minimum of resistance
should not be overlooked. The bow,
which is sharp as a knife, literally
sharp, and handsomely turned, gives the
sloop an easy entrance into the waves
through which the entire hull glides
with the smooth sauciness OF Cape
Cod catboat.
1t was impossible to overlook the fact,
compared to the rather heavy move
ment of the four American sloops.
Shamrock was live boat even in a
wind blowing hardly five miles an hour
Unless indications are misleading, this
Upton challenger will be exceedingly
dangerous in all the races of the
Americas Cup series characterized by
light conditions. More than this may
not be said at the present writing, in
asmuch as the Shamrock has been seen
under sail only this once by the yacht
ing critics.

HACKS 4TH SETS
MARK FOR LEAGUE
Cub SIugger' Has 81 Games
to Go-Babe Week Ahead
of '27 Record.

BY the Associated Press.
0HICAGO'S base ball fans
4 are about ready to look
Y 4 haughtily in the direction
of New York and ask,
'Who is this fellow Ruth?" for
Hack Wilson, hefty home-run
hitter of the Cubs, has a new
National League record in the
Ruthian speciality and has drawn
up on even terms with the great
Babe in this years competition
at betting four-baggers.
Hack hit his forty-fourth home run
of the season to put a finishing touch
on the Cubs 7-to-5 victory over the
Pittsburgh Pirates yesterday, and IN
doing it passed the record Chuck Klein
set year ago. 1t took Klein the fuli
season to beat Rogers Hornsby's old
mark of AZ, while Wilson has beaten
the young Philadelphia with 81 games
to 60. And he Is tied with Ruth in
the seasons totals, while the Babe still
is a week ahead Of the record he set
in 1927.
The Cubs have a week more at home
before they start on their final road
tour and Wilson has hit most OF his
homers IN Wrigley Field.
Homer Helps Little.
Hacks record-smashing homer did
not play very important part in the
Chicago triumph yesterday, which put
the Cubs 51a games ahead Of the New
York Giants, who had day Of rest
before the start of their series with
Brooklyn. But. Wilson contributed q
single in the fifth, two innings before,
which aided greatly in putting the game
safely away, as the Cubs scored five
runs. This one frame decided an other
wise close game, with Larry French
having a bit the better of Fred Blake.
The ST. Louis Cardinals continued
their advance in the only other Ma
tional League game, defeating Cincin-
natl, to /, for their seventh successive
victory. The Cards had bit Of trouble
when the Reds put two men on base
with none out in the ninth, but Wild
Bill Hallahan, who had pitched a fine
game, managed to get out of the hole.
The victory left st. Louis only half
game behind the third-place Brooklyn
Robins, with some prospects of improv-
ing their position, as they continue
against the Reds today, while Brooklyn
tackles the Giants.
Only one game was on schedule Tor
the American League yesterday and 1t
finally brought the Philadelphia Ath-
letics out of the difficulties which had
beset them in the first two games of
their series with Washington to final
10-to-9 triumph, which put them again
in a fairly safe place, seven and a half
games in the lead.
