COMMITTEE OF PLAYERS
 MAKES HANDBALL RATINGS
Agrees With Veteran On Only Two in Standings - Dressd and Hergstrom Rank First and Second n Anderson and Dave Dunn Placed Third and Fourth
 Bill Mangan and Joe Roche Named Among Lead-

Dissatisfied with the handball se- lections made by the veteran and named the other day, committee of three players, active in the game and numbered among those who are con- sidered good handball judges, has named 10 players who in their opin- ion are leading performers on tho r. M. c. A. courts. q
 Only two of the men selected by the veteran have been retained in the standings by the committee. They are Henry Dressel in first place and Joe Hergstrom in second place.
 The other selections are as fol- lows: 3. Gunnard Anderson; 4, Dave Dunn; 5, Turk Clare; 6, Maurice Ros- enberg; ', Lou Vogel; 8, Bill Man. gan: 9, Bill Greenstein and 10, Jo. seph Roche.
 Honorable mention in order is giveA to Bus Strong, Burt Loomis. Charles Hawkins, Peter Perakos and Dave Waskowitz.
 The reasons for the selections are given by the members of the com- mittee. Dressel is called consistent and steady with no outstanding weakness. He is unanimously given first place. Joe Hergstrom is term ed outstanding in every way with no outstanding weakness
 Anderson is described as an in and outer but high in the standing for his consistently good showing. Dave Dunn is termed the brainiest player of the lot. Injuries he suffers from prevent him from going into first place. Clare is a newcomer not yet fully matured and he lacks balance. He stumbles overly much.
 Rosenberg is termed lazy, lacks the will to win but is an excellent shot maker. He is also lucky. Vogel has stamina, lacks a kill shot and needs seasoning. He is a player who will be among the first three this fall. Mangan is a beautiful defense player, good partner, little slow on stl'tegy and inclined to be lucky. Greenstein has his good days and bad. The good days are in a majori- ty. He Is inclined to ..'crab" a lit- tie too much. He is hard to beat. on his good days. Joe Roche is one of the steadiest players on the local courts. He is good with either hand, Condition and his excess stomach are his only drawbacks.
 In the honorable mention list. Bus Strong is handicapped by bad right hand. Burt Loomis uses a closed hand to his own detriment. Charles Hawkins is short on strategy and lacks a kill shot. Pete Perakos is a. good all around player with poor stamina. He is easily discouraged, Waskowitz, on the surface, looks like champion but in actual battle, he wilts easily. He cannot focus rapid ly enough. He loses courage under fire. Ha is meat for steady play CT. He should make the first 10 by the fall of 1881.

Games to play-Brooklyn 10, St. Louis 12, Chicago Il, New York II.
 In turning back the Cincinnati Reds 13 to yesterday, the Robins won their 11th consecutive game, beating the Athletics former 1880 record of 10 straight. The Reds started by scoring three runs. in the first inning and driving Ray Moss from the mound, but the Robins were out after the game and a chance to increase their lead over the idle Cardinals, a few of whom were in the stands.
 Red Lucas, ace of the Reds hurl- ing staff, went the way of Moss as Brooklyn talled six times in their half of the first session. There would have been one more run if Glenn Wright, who bounced a home run into the bleachers, had not overrun Babe Herman on the base paths. As it was Wright was declared out and got credit for only a single. After the first inning. the Brooklyn slug gers kept peppering away. rolling up decided advantage while Wat son Clark, Moss successor, was hold ing the Reds in check.
 The Cubs lost a chance to gain valua ble ground. when they split a double header with Philadelphia. the Phillies taking the opening slugfest 12 to Il and Chicago the second games 6 to 4 after Hack Wilson had pounded out his 50th home run of the season. Lefty O'Doul's home run with one out in the ninth and the score knotted at II all decided the exciting opener.
 With Fred Fitzsimmons giving out only three hits, the Giants stayed in the race with a s to 1 triumph over the Pirates. Swetonic was equally as brilliant after the first two in- nings, but in those two frames, the Giants scored five of their six runs. The victory broke the Giants five game losing streak.
 Washington managed to pick up al half game on the idle Athletics in the American league as they trimmed the Chicago White Sox 14 to 9. Each team got IS hits but the Senators were able to couple their blows with White Sox misplays
 If it hadn't been for one bad in- ming Vic Sorrell would have pitched the Tigers to triumph over the Yankees. As 1t was New York de- feated Detroit 5 to 3, scoring four of their runs in the second. Thereafter Sorrell had the New Workers at his mercy.
 The St. Louis Browns and Boston Red Sox divided a double header, the Browns winning the opener 3 to l and the Red Sox taking the second to in l. innings. Goose Goslin's 32nd home run in the eighth decided the first in favor of St. Louis while Oliver scored the winning run for the Red Sox in the night cap by scoring on wild throw.

 Once more the pace setters, the Brooklyn Robins today faced the difficult task of turning back the threatening St. Louis Cardinals, as they did the Chicago Cubs last week, if they are to be the first team un- der the wire in the National league pennant race.
 The Robins, boosting seasons record winning streak of eleven games, went in today's fray holding one game margin over the Cards and one and one-half game adyan- tage over the third place Cubs. In cidentally while the Robins and Cardinals are battling in a three game series, the Cubs will be called on to meet the Giants, all but elim- mated from the race but still cling ing to that mathematical possibility.
 AS the four leading clubs line up in their second crucial series with in a week, the standing looks like th;a.

RULE AGAINST RADIO NOISE
MAY SOLVE BUILDING PROBLEM
Apartment and Other Structures With Courts for
Air and Light to Be Relieved.

Adoption by the District Commission
ers of new regulation forbidding radio
fans, under the penalty of fine or i'm
prisonment, creating a public nuisance
by running their sets unreasonably loud,
may have the effect of minimizing a
problem which has been faced by prop
erty management concerns, builders and
architects.
Builders have struggled in the past
with the problem of making maximum
use of lot areas in erecting apart
ments, and yet to plan the layout of
buildings to give as much space as pos
sible in courts between wings. Aside
from providing for the necessary amount
of light and air, it has been a problem
to arrange courts to allow a minimum
of noise.
Apartment house managers at times
are the recipients of inSistent COM
plants from some tenants about the
conduct of others in running their radio
sets full blast" into the wee small hours.
The new ordinance some observers be-
lieve, may bring relief to apartment
property owners as well as to private
individuals.
The Department of Labor Joined in
the campaign against unnecessary noise
this week in news release, recounting
the injurious effects of this bugaboo of
congested city life. 1t states:
"The fact that unnecessary noise pre-
sents a serious problem is receiving in
creasing recognition from various indi-
viduals and organizations. 1t has been
shown that excessive noise reduces eff
cheney and that the practical effect of
the use of quieting treatment for work.
rooms or the elimination or lowering of
the disturbing noises has been an in
crease in output or a reduction in the
number of errors.
