 Vance 9-Nathan Hale 8
 In one of the biggest upsets in Rotary league history, the Vance playgrounders scored to 8 win over the Nathan Hale outfit. One big inning. the fifth. gave the Vance crew it's advantage and this was held until the end of the game.
 Kufta pitched sweet ball for the Nathan Halers but he was accorded miserable support. Twelve misplays were made behind his hurling and these went a long way in helping the winners to score
 Rival, the Vance twirler, pitched steady ball throughout and although touched for ten safties, he kept the losers hits we'll scattered For four innings both teams battled for an advantage and at the end of this part of the game, the Nathan Hale team vas holding a to 1 advan- tage. Two hits were registered by Nathan Hale in these four sessions and one was chalked up by the Vance stickers.

TEACHOUT FINALLY
 FINDS HIS PLACE
Now a Ranking Member of Chi.
 cago'S Pitching Staff

Chicago, Aug. ' P,--Bud Teach out now a ranking member of the Cubs pitching staff, appreciates pa Independently in other people.
 One way he has shown his appre- ciation is by threatening to take a prominent place among the mound artists of the major leagues
 Teachout, youngster and a southpaw, was kicked around quite discouragingly before he landed his place with the Bruins this spring.
 He got his start at Occidental col leSe, Los Angeles. From there he went to Hollywood.
 The Detroit Tigers gave him the once over and took him along on their training trip. But they ended by sending him to Seattle, whence he went to Indianapolis, where the Cubs picked him up.
 There were few more unpromislng recruits at the Cubs Catalina Island training camp. Teachout couldn't locate the plate in practice games,
 
 pounded all over the lot.
 Being a straightforward young man, and fearing McCarthy's pa tience might not last, Teachout went to the manager and asked for time.
 He explained that he knew he had the stuff, that he was always slow in getting started in the spring and that if he didn't develop by May 1, Mccarthy could send him back to Indianapolis or anywhere else
 McCarthy's patience, known to have made more than one other out standing major leaguer. including Earl Combs, held out
 The result has been that Teachout missed Indianapolis and the Cubs gained a good pitcher-vhen they needed one.

 In an effort to be the player who got the last ball Tn the game yester- day, the catcher for the Vance play ground team all but lost the game against Nathan Hale yesterday aft ernoon. The player in question dropped the last strike. The bat ter started to run to first and. in stead of throwing the ball to the first baseman. the catcher wanted to make the last out and he start ed to chase the hitter.
 A pretty race ensued with the batter reaching first ahead of the catcher. He was safe and, as events turned out, he scored. Fortunately for the Vance team. 1t was leading by two runs instead of one. How ever, the action of the catcher all but lost this lead also.
 The right thing to do in all cases worth. Individual efforts are all right in their places but when d game is at stake, every player on the team should play his best and play the game in the right way. 17le Vance catcher wasn't giving his teammates, the packers of his team or the other teams in the league, a square deal in doing as he did yes terday, We say this with the knowl- edge that he did what he did, with out any intention other than to get the last putout in the game and thereby win ball for himself.
