Although meeting the toughest opposition offered to any team this season by the Stanley Works, the Landers team continued winning last night in the Industrial league and blanked the Buttmakers by the score Of to 0. The game went scoreless until the seventh inning when Schuster. Stanley Works pitcher, baked in the first run and his team handed the Landers crew four more in the eighth. In the game played on Diamond No. 1, the Gascos displayed complete re- versal of form to defeat the New matics $ to 2.
 Landers 5; Stanley Works 0
 Playing the finest defensive brand of baseball the team has shown yhis year but unable to deliver hits when hits meant runs, the Stanley Works nine suffered a 5 to 0 shutout at the hands of the Janders crew last night on Diamond No. 2. For six innings, neither team was able to score although runners had gotten into threatening positions on more than one occasion.
 Another great pitchers battle de- veloped during the contest and it appeared temporarily that the Stan ley Works team had recovered the form that brought it a champion ship two years ago and put 1t in the runner-up position. But. in the eighth inning. the team blew up again. not so much through errors but through unfortunate choice by Adams of the base to which to throw to get a runner. Twice he threw home tp Schroeder, too late to get runner coming in from third and two runs came in on these plays. Two more were scored before the session closed.
 Schuster gave the Landers team it's first run in the seventh inning when, with the bases loaded and two men out, he baked to third base and Umpire Crowey brought in the runner from third.
 Longmore was invincible. He al ! lowed only five hits no two of these coming in any single inning. H. famed nine and walked only one i He hit two batsmen but no damage was caused through these two men | getting on base. He could not be touched in the pinches and In the ninth inning with one out and run. ners on second and third, he struck out the next two batters to end the game.

 until the latter part of the game
 when the Gascos had a safe lead that Klopp eased off and the New-
 matics did their scoring. The first batter for the Gascos, Mccormick, put them in the lead
 when he hammered a home run in- to deep left field. Frankie Sheehan and Klatka singled later in the in- ming and the former scored on Res- telli's sacrifice fly.

CHICAGO, Aug. 27. U.P)-Having
accomplished the feat he has been
attempting for four years - the
breaking of the National league all

1t was the first time any player
has tied Ruth this late in the season,
and placed Wilson games and 8
days ahead Of Ruth's 1927 schedule

HUDKINS THROWN
OUT OF RING BY
FIGHT REFEREE

LOS ANGELES, Aug. -. UH-
Ace Hudkins, known as the " Ne
braska Wildcat, > and Jack McNey,
a negro trial horse for 10 years of
more. were in bad repute today at
ter boxing match which the ref
cree maintains was nothing more
than dancing act.
This is your round,' Referee
Jack Kennedy, who is lieutenant
in the United States navy, declares
he heard McNey whisper to Hud-
kins during a clineh in the ninth
round of a scheduled 10-round bout
last night at the Olympic club.
Referee Kennedy said he was
amazed beyond words to hear such
a thing in prize ring. His sur
prise increased when McVey then
accepted tap from Hudkins and
rolled over on the canvas while the
naval officer counted eight. Why
he did not stay down for the entire
10 count still is a mystery to Ken
nedy.
During the final frame Lieut.
Kennedy watched the two fighters
intently for a minute or so then
suddenly ordered them from the
ring.
'.No contest, he roared. and
then motioned a crowd of 1000 fans
into silence so he could make a
speech.
"These two men were talking tC
each other for four out of the L
rounds, y Kennedy said In the

Hudkins who weighed l6l pounds,
four lighter than his opponent,
failed to beat Mickey Walker for
the middleweight title few months
ago. Last nights bout with McNey
was billed as a comeback of the Ace
in a campaign to meet Mickey again
in a title battle
The semi-windup on the card was
as sour as the main event. The
manager of Fred Cullen was so
panied at his man 5 efforts against
Jimmy Hannah that he threw in
the towel as a token Of surrender
in the second round of bout sched-
ule dior six.
Sig Ecklund knocked out Suits
Houck in the special event. Mar
celino Lomelli defeated Willie Faus-
to in one preliminary and Frank
Rowsey decisioned Al Cruise in an
other.
