League Standing

Two big surprises were sprung in the Industrial league baseball gaces last night at Walnut Hill park The firse came when the New Britain Machine Co. team downed the Gascos s to 4 and the Stanley Works forced the Landers team into 10 innings before the Unirersals could eke out a to win
 Landers went into the last half of the ninth with the score to Q against them. Errors, principally by the Stanley Works shortstop, en- abled the team to tie the count and then Landers won out in the 10th.
 \. B. Machine s, Gascos 1
 Miserable errors, careless and de sultory playing, poor baserunning and a mess of overconfidence, cost the Gascos a baseball game on Dia- mond No. and enabled the New Britain Machine team to furnish one of the big upsets in the league when it carried off the decison by the score of s 10 4. The Gascos appar- cntly figured that they had an easy mark to play and their attitude was the biggest mistake they ever made.
 The score was tied at three all until the sixth inning when the New matics staged rally and scored two runs. They followed this with three more in the eighth, two of which came in when Wojack failed to stop a slow boundcr with the bases load cd and the Gascos, caught in the surprise uprising, could score only one run in the last of the ninth in q feeble attempt to recover.
 The Gascos scored one run in the first. second and third. The New matics got two in the third and one in the fourth, mostly on errors and the score was tied. From the third inning until the ninth, the Gascos failed to ge around the bases. Chances 10 score were tossed away by poor base running and the team suffered severely from this careless ness as the game progressed.
 Cobb lasted the entire route for the Ncwmatics. He was touched up for l bingles but the Gascos failed to take the opportunities presented to them klopp started for.the Gas cos but his arm went bad in the sev- onth inning and "Huggy" Carlson cssayed 10 pitch in his place. The Gasco team failed to give him the support he had every right 10 eX- pect and three runs were scored off him.
 Budnick at third base was the fielding star Of the game with nine chances and no blobs. He caught two men at the plate. picking q stray ball in the ninth after F'riske had booted it and tossed klatka out Tt the home station.

GEHR|G HAVING
 HIS BEST SEASON
Larruping Lou Bounds Into Lead
 in American League

New York, August l (UP)-LOu Gchrig has had his ups and downs since he replaced Wally Pipp as first haseman of the New York Yankees ln 1925, but the former Columbia athlete is experiencing one of his best years in baseball this season.
 Gehrigs batting average dwindled away to d mere 800 last season, and the husky Dutchman's place on the Yankees was none too secure at the close of the 1880 season. Gehrig is one of the highest priced players Tn the game, drawing S25,Q00 a year, and the Yankee officials didn't think Lou quite earned his stipend last season.
 But Gehrig has bounded back with a bang, and today was leading the American League with an average or .3q2 and in the midst of q ter rife hitting streak. In five games played this week, Gehrig has batted AIS, driven in 2o runs. scored nine himself and hit four home runs.
 Gehrigs home run total is now 33, placing him in a tie with Hack Will son of the Chicago Cubs for second place. three behind Babe Ruth's to- tal Of s.
 Gehrig threatens 10 break one Of his own major league records this season if he keeps up his present pace. Gchrig holds the records for runs batted in. I75 in 1927. In 102 games this season Gehrig has driven iu l&5 runs. and has 53 games in which to drive in the necessary 40 runs 10 lie the record.
 By driving in eight runs with a hcme run and two doubles against inc Boston Red SoX yestorda.. Geh- | rig came within four ot Jim Bottoin- . ley's record of 12 runs batted in in one game and tied the second best mark held jointly by Harry Hejl- mann G92S> and Roy Horczcll . Cal1D
 In his last four games Gehrig has driven in IS runs-eIghr yesterday again the Red SoX. four in Wednes- days double header agalnst the Red | SON ana SIX IleS4dt c5a-L->- ll+S Athletics.
 With Babe Ruth handicapped by an injury 10 his thumb, Gehrig's of fensIye work has been largely re- sponsiblo fro the Yankees hanging on in the American League pcnnant race. If the Athletics should crack, it seems likely that the Yankees, and not the Senators. will supply Philadelphia w..h it's stiftost opposl- ton.
 GohrIg's rise 10 major league fame was rapid He joined the Yankeet in 1923, straight from the Columbia campus. where he had been q foot 1 ball and baseball hero.

Toronto and Baltimore Are Both
 Defeated in Games

By the Associated Press.
 Once more the Baltimore Orioles have muffed chance to cut into Rochester's comfortable lead in the International league.
 While the league leaders were lowing to Toronto yesterday, Balti- more, with an opportunity to shave a full game off the Redwngs' ad- vantage, suffered a trouncing from the Newark Bears.
 Mamaux himself elected to pitch against the Orioles and turned in a neat performance. as the Bears hit opportunely to win, S-9. Mamaux held the Orioles to nine scattered hits, one a home run by Heinie Sand. Stewart Bolen started for Baltimore but was driven out of the box in the fourth inning when the Bears counted four times. Monte Weaver relieved him but was no more effective, giving up single runs in the sixth and eighth in nings and a pair of counters in the seventh. Herb Thomas, Newark second baseman, collected two doubles and single, drove in three runs and scored two.
 Rochesters defeat by Toronto, 11-9, started in the third inning when the Leafs counted nine times. Tex Carleton was sailing along with a three run lead when the avalanche descended, but before the side was retired both he and his immediate successor. Irwin, had departed for the showers and 14 Toronto batsmen had gone to the plate.
 Of these batsmen. seven got hits aud four received walks. The big blows of the inning were a triple by Bedore with three on and a double by kunesch that accounted for two more. Rochester plugged away. drew within one run Of a tie, blasted Joe Shaute and Nick liar rison out of the box but could not fathom the offerings of Phil Page. last Toronto hurler.
 Buffalo dropped the first game of 8. double bill 10 Montreal, 11-3, but won the second, 6-4 Every player in the Montreal lineup shared in the Is hits the Royals collected off Levcrett and Williams in the opener and only Henry and Thormahlen failed to score Thormahlen, incl dentally. turned in a steady eight hit pitching performance. He had the Bisons grounding weakly 10 the infield for the most, only three put outs being credited 10 the Royal out fieIders Russell Nrightstone led the Bisons in an 11-hit attack on three Royal pitchers in the second game. The oldtime major leaguer drove in three runs with homer and two singles.
 Johnny Welch gave up only HN hits as Reading trounced Jersey City. o-2. Scott collected two doubles and pair of singles to lead Readings 14-hit offensive on Grant, Moore and Guise. Welch deserved a shutout, both Skeeter runs being directly attributable to Reading errors. Jurges. key shortstop. had a bad day affield, making three errors.
