 POINTS OF LEAD
Double Victory Puts Baltimore
 Two Games Behind
By the Associated Press.

By the Associa-ed Press.
 Once again th/ Baltimore Orioles
 have fought tb IF way up the Inter
 national league percentage ladder
 within striking distance of the pace setting Rochester Redwings.
 A double victory yesterday, the sixth and seventh triumphs in the last nine games. showed the Orioles within two games Of the champions, who dropped a pair of Sunday con- tests. Here is how the two rivals look today; Rochester, 79-51-.60S;
 Baltimore, 78-54-,591.
 Toronto was the victim of the
 Orioles savage attack, Baltimore
 winning the opener to in 12 in nings and the second fracas ' to 2
 and as has happened several times in the past it was Joe Hausers 55th home run of the season that knotted the count in the ninth inning of the first game, while remarkable one hand running catch by Vince Bar
 ton saved the Orioles in the 10th. In the second. the Orioles took advan- ,.tage of their eight hits off Barnes and Samuels.
 Baltimore has Jersey City to thank for the twin defeat of Rochester. the Skeeters taking the first 3 to 2, also in 12 innings. and the nightcap. an abbreviated seven inning affair. 10
 l. Dixie Walker did much for the cause of the Skeeters, pounding out six hits during the course of the
 afternoon.
 Montreal continued the practice Of Baltimore and Jersey City in win
 ming rouble- headers, defeating New
 ark twice, to and , to 2, Byron Speece, former Phillie National
 hurler, and Marty Griffin for the Royals, went the entire route in the
 opener and Hough Speece was nick
 cd for only seven hits and issued
 but one pass. errors at the critical stages caused his downfall. Myles Thomas. another former major ! leaguer. pitched for Newark in the second but six errors behind him
 were costly.
 Reading managed to win the ser ics from Buffalo by breaking even in a double-h header, the Keys taking the first to and the Bisons the clos ing battle to 4. Leroy Hermann s
 six-hit pitching was responsible for
 the Keys triumph in the first game.

Terre Haute Battler and. Cham- piOn Clash in NOn-Tite Bout

 Four rounds; Frankie Marine, New Haven, vs. Billy Averra, Palm Beach, Fla, 126 pounds.
 Hartford. Aug. 1S-"Bud" Taylor of Terre Haute, Ind, former ban tamweight champion, who defeated Bat Battalno in close. hard bat tie at Detroit in March, will enter the ring at the Hurley Stadium to- night the favorite to repeat over the worlds featherweight champion.
 Taylor. a veteran in the rugged sport but still rated among the topnotchers, has had his last four major opponents on the foor-La Barba. Al Singer, Earl Mastro and Rattalino. all in tribute to one or bantam Or feather.
 The "Terre Haute Terror" has worked out here each day the past week before a big turnout Of fans and has impressed by his speed boxing skill and hitting power. Battalino, plainly not pleased by the realization that many of the hometowners are picking Taylor to repeat. is in great shape and says he is confident of turning the tables and hopes to do 1t with knock out.
 An interesting angle of tonight fight is the subject of the referee. Taylor's camp has a5ked that a non Hartford referee handle the bout and Commissioner Donohue has said that he would give the request con- sideration. Interest in the bout is state wid and it is expected that the gate will mount over s25.000
 Taylor's next bout will be with Kid Chocolate at New York. Thny were matched before Chocolate was injured in an automobile accident and then the bout was deferred to make room for the Chocolate Jackie Berg battle.

POLO QUAR7ET1S ALMOST CERTAIN
Experts Satisfied That Players
 Have Already Been Picked

New York, Aug. 1S UP)-It seemed a fairly safe bet today that when the Interna tional Polo matches come around next month, Messrs, Pedley, Hopping, Hitchcock and guest will be in there swinging mal- lets against the British.
 Any doubt that might have existed as to whether these gentlemen would form Americas team was ridden in to the turf of Sands Point field yesterday. when they rode 10 an $ to 15 win over the second string CTS.
 The Polo association, in it's pre- else little bulletins didn't say so, but the test match yesterday was the crucial one for Htchcock's four. Crucial for young Earle A. s. Hop ping, Jr., at any rate. Many are of the opinion that young Hopping was the defense committees choice for No. ?, even before the test matches were started. Elmer Boeseke, it would seem, was the peoples choice. This big Californian, who looks like
 
 Bill made one appearance as No. for the varsity and then went into an eclipse.
 In his solo appearance as var sity member Boeseke rode beauti- fully and smacked many q long one down the field. So many, in fact, that Pedley set some sort of a rec ord for goal scoring.
 Cecil Smith and Rube Williams. two daring hombres from Texas, were two other contenders for the No. post. The Texans played just as good polo or better than Hop ping in the early series.
 After the match Captain Charles E. Tremayne of the British team announced that the first eight per iod match Or the invaders would be played on Thursday against a picked team. The lineup, he said, would be Captain George, No.1; Bidding, No. 2; Pat Roark, No, 3: and Lacey. back. In the meantime the English will engage in a num- Der of easy pony matches to linbe, up their mounts.

 A mistake in the accounting of runs scored in the first inning by the Y. M. C. A. team against Nathan Hale wherein the "Y" was credited with four runs when five were act ually scored. really gave the "" a victory in the inning game instead of allowing the Nathan Hale team to win in nine innings.
 After the situation was explained 10 Manager Gerald McCourt of the Rotary Baseball league, he declared that the game should be chalked up as a win for the Y. M c. A. and a loss for Nathan Hale. The "Y" team actually had the game won at the end of the seventh inning by the score of ' to C.

scored.
 Messenger then singled to right field and went to third when Benu- sis singled in the same place. Ter williger struck out but the catcher dropped the ball and threw him out at first. On the play, Messenger scored. This was the run that was not counted by the score keeper and it made five runs for the "Y". The team scored another in the fourth and fifth making a total Of seven. Nathan Hale scored four in the fifth and two in the seventh making it six. AS the game officially was to go only seven innings, the "Y" team should have been awarded the victory.
 Manager McCourt, after examina- ton of the records, finds that the "Y" should be credited with the win and the Nathan Hale team with loss.
