MANCHESTER, Eng, Aug. IT
R1-Britain's moves 10 recapture
its lost cotton markets in the Far
East are fun OF meaning for Amer
lean growers.
Besides reconditioning its plant
and sales structure, 1t means that
Lancashire will want cheap cot
ton. for the Far East-China par
t.cularly-is almost exclusively a
cheap cotton goods market.
Result Unknown
Whether this means that much
less American cotton will be con-
sumed remains to be seen. The
Short-staple crops Of India and
Russia are cheaper cotton and they
are used for cheap cloth.
With the English mills urged on
every side TO abandon their tradi-
tional standards of quality and
"go after the business" It is only
reasonable to assume that such
viii be the result.
The Lancashire Cotton Corpor-

This corporation is leading the
way toward recapture OF what

now holds that can be gained back.

they got him out Of the box in
the fifth, JablonowSki taking over
the Dutch and hurling the re-
mainder Of the route.
The GriffS collected Is hits
altogether off of the two Indian
hurlers. Sam Rice led with three
singles, while Cronin, Bluege,
Spencer and Manush, socked out
two hits apiece. Both Of Cronin'S
bingles were doubles.
Frisco Joe's first double drove
across Myer in the first inning.
Buddy opened the frame with a
double. Bluege opened the second
inning with a double, went to
third on Spencer's short single
and counted as Brown hit into a
double play.
KuhePs double and Spencer's
single counted the third Griff run
in the fourth. Singles by Rice and
Manush and Cronin'S second dou-
BILE drove Clint Brown out Of the
box in the fifth. 1t also drove
over the two runs counted in this
frame.
Lloyd Browns double and Rice's
third single accounted for the

81 think Bolton has learned
enough to be depended upOn,"
said Johnson this morning.
"I'd had him behind the plate
yesterday, if he hadn't hurt his
thumb in pre-game practice"
Spencer, by his iron-man work
this season, has done a good job
of it for fellow of his size,
when everything is considered.
He has kept a consistent rattle
of base hits ringing off his bat
while in there. His handling of
the pitchers has been all that has
been desired.
But, he's felt the strain. Man
ager johnson, not wishing to
hasten the end of a perfectly
good career, has decided to give
Roy all the rest he can in the
future by calling upon Bolton.
The team should not be hurt
so materially with Bolton in the
game. In fact, extensively, it will
be helped, as the youngster can
certainly sock the ball. The in
sertion Of Bolton will be interest
ing for two points. One is that
it'll give Spencer the rest he
needs at this time, while the
other is it'll offer Bolton the
chance he's been looking for-to
gain the experience and polish
necessary to make him finished
product.

KEEP AHEAD.
Of YANKS,'
CRY NOW
BY GARRETT WATERS

CLEVELAND, Aug. %. - The
Griffmen must do some tall win.
ming from now on, If they are to
finish this Western trip on the
right side of the ledger in the
matter Of victories.
At the present time, Manager
JohnSon's men have returned
home victorious in only fiv. times
out Of twelve.
Still this gait is just how the
Griffmen have been playing since
June. Luckily the Yankees have
had their troubles too, which
fact has kept the Gothamites
trailing the Griffs by three or
four games.
The players have begun worry
ing about keeping ahead Of the
Yankees right now. With the
season drawing rapidly towards
the end. the Griffs are feeling
fearful that the Yankees might
overhaul them for second place.
Aim to Win
Their aim now is to win every
game possible in order to make
sure Of second place. ,
1--WE can finish second easily"
says Manager Walter Johnson,
eff the pitchers go out there
every day and pitch like they
know how. AS I've said before,
the team is hitting enough to
win. All that is needed now IS
the pitching"
All of which is true. very true.
The Griffs have looked excep-
tionally strong at the bat on this
trip, with one or two exceptions.
Literally. it's the one bright bit
of the teams showing.
But the pitching, taken as a
whole-well, the least said about
it the better.
Manager Johnson's men mean
to do better in the games from
now on, they say. One more con.
test is left with Cleveland today.
Four with the Detroit Tigers come
next.
Five straight is the motto (be-
lieve it or no0. Carl Fischer,
who always has been good against
the Indians, has been nominated
to pitch the final against the In
dians today. Wesley Ferrell is
likely to oppose him.
Fischer on Hill
Fischer gets the call after
much deliberation from Manager
Johnson. Walter has decided to
give Carl the chance he's been
waiting for all this time. It's do
or die for the young pitcher, or
else curtains for the remainder
Of the season.
81 haven't had the least bit Of
confidence in Carl for q month
or sO," said Johnson. "His list
IeSsness and erratic work have
worried me. After a talk with
him the other day I've given
him his chance. And there's
nobody who would like to see
him come through any more
than 1. He has the ability to
be a good pitcher if he wants
to-"
The Griffs hop a train for De-
troit Immediately after the game
today. Bobby Burke is slated to
open the series against the Tigers
tomorrow.

'Ts that sO?" he inquired.
Gee, that's great"
''Why," a writer remarked,
''I didn'a suppose you fellows
paid any attention to that?"
Kiki grinned.
"Sure we do" he said. "And
being picked on that team
helps a fellow a lot. too. Not
only in fixing up contracts
with the club but in the con-
fidence and good feeling it
gives him. When the Babe
picks . fellow for a job like
that-why you just know that
fellows pretty good. Babe
knows his baseball and his
bali players, and while you
might disagree with him now
and then. it's a cinch he's not
far off in his selections"

TOO, was another chap who has
figured on more of Babe Ruth's
teams than any other man in
baseball. Rogers HornSby. Rog
has been picked on seven of the
nine teams the Babe has named.
Rajah Interested
This year he's perhaps out of
the running. He has been in
and out of the lineup and he has
alternated between second and
third-bUt he's still interested.
I'D like to bet in that con-
test myself" he said. 1--WE got
a hunch the Babe and l
wouldn't be far apart on our
selections"
Don't forget that short letter
giving your reasons for making
your selections.
The very first letter we opened
today had as a team as you
can pick, but did not include the
reasons. It's in the waste-basket
now.
We again repeat the absolute
requirements:
Pick ten men, including two
pitchers, arrange them in bat
ting order anu send $50 words
or less giving your reasons for
picking your team. Id get in
the mail before midnight Au-
gust 81.
If you disregard any one Of
these, your work is wasted.
Remember, this is I'd guessing
contest. It's a real test Of keen
baseball knowledg-, requiring a
lot of hard thinking and studying
of records.
