ARLETT SEEKING
 H0ME-RUN MARK
Aiming at GA to Pass Hauser's Record and Earn Himself Second Major League Trial

Among the many players whose ambitions to make good in the ma jor leagues were thwarted this spring by being shifted back to the minors, in many instances because of the new 23-player limit in vogue this year, none is making strong CT bid to come back for a fresh trial than Russel P. (Buzz) Arlett, the big outfielder whom the Phillies shipped to Baltimore last winter.
 As the result of his tremendous clouting in the International League this year it is taken almost for certainty that Buzz will be back in the majors next season for it seems utterly unlikely that such hitting talent will be allowed to go to waste even in Class A minor.
 Arlett himself is confident he will come back and even contends that he should never have been sent away by, the Phillies, for whom he hit eighteen home runs average of .313 for 121 games. But the Phillies regarded his fielding last year of too inferior a quality for major league service and let him go.
 However, his hitting has been of such a phenomenal nature this year that regardless of whether his fielding has improved there is quite likely to be some lively bidding among the majors for his Services at the close of the present cam- pai9n. Arlett already has. hammered out more than forty home runs and is conceded to have an excellent chance of surpassing the worlds record of sixty y-three, made by Joe Hauser, also with Baltimore in 1890.
 In addition to this Arlett already has achieved something that no hitter in baseball has ever been able to do, namely, to hit four home runs in two games. Other minor leaguers have made more citing clouts in one game-Nig Clarke, while with .Corsicana, get ting eight and Pete Schneider of Vernon making five-while in the major leagues, Bob Lowe of the Boston Nationals, Ed Delehanty of the Phillies and Lou Gehrig of the Tanks have each registered four in a game, but making four twice is without precedent.
 Arlett turned the trick in the first game of the July 4 double header against Reading when he clouted the ball four times out of the park, dujlicating his feat of June 1 against the same club. The July 1 homers were made in suc- cessive times at bat.
 In addition to this, he has tied the major league record of six home runs in four successive games and has bettered the majors mark of getting four homers in q double- header by making five. He did this by lifting the ball out of the park in the second game on July after having collected his cluster of four To the first game.

HORNSBY HEARS BRONX CHEERSAS
 GIANTS TOP CUBS
Boo Rajah Whose Clumsy Work Aids in I3-3 ROut = Johnny Moore Pinch Hits, But Fails to Connect

Chicago, July 1S.-1t must have been the heat, or the humidity, or something. Anyway, the Giants threw a fit in the eighth inning yesterday, knocked a cluster of eight runs across the plate and overwhelmed the Cubs by score of 13 to 2.
 The collapse of the Cubs in this crazy inning was so complete that 15,000 customers including 5000 non-paying guests. hung around to hurl Bronx cheers at Rogers Hornsby, whose clumsy work at third base gave the Giants several of their runs.
 It seems that the Rajah is
 not as spry as he used to be.
 Knowing this, the unfec1ing
 Giants sent a flock of bunts,
 grOundcis and linc drives in
 his direction, much to hls dls-
 cOnifture.

To add to Manager Joe McCar- thy's woes, the ace of his pitch ing staff has reported sick.
 Yesterday the Babe was carried off the field at Yankee Stadium after he had pulled a muscle in his right leg chasing a short fly. One week previous to that break directors of the league upheld Catcher Dickey's $1,O00 fine and 30-day suspension for breaking Carl Reynolds' jaw at Washing ton.
 Tanks Have Big Lead
 Despite Ruth's accident in the seventh inning, the Tanks beat the Chicago White Sox, 6 to 4. Lou Gebrig, Joe Sewell and Tony Laz- zeri contributed home runs for New York, and Kress homered for Chicago.
 This victory enabled the Tanks to extend their first-place lead by half a game to nine, as the Phil adelphia Athletics replaced the Cleveland Indians in second posi- ton, by beating the St Louis Browns, 8 to l. Mickey 'Coch- rane connected for three hits HI tuICc ClldACcS, OAlC VI WAASA WA0 a home run with two on. His Phil 'adelphia teammate, Rog Cramer, scored three times with a pair of doubles and two singles in five tries.
 Indians Drop to Third
 Cleveland dropped to third place when the Indians lost to the tail- end Boston Red Sox, to 2. Paul Andrews, Yankee cast-off, hurled the Bostonians to victory.
 Detroit replaced Washington in fourth place when the Tigers halt ed the Senator's nine-game win- ming streak by taking both ends of a double-header, 8 to 6, and 2 to l. In the National League, Brook lyn replaced the St Louis Cardinals in fifth position, by downing the Cards, z to 4, aided by timely hit ting from Hack Wilson and Glenn Wright.
 The league-leading Pittsburgh Pirates ended four-game winning streak by losing to the Phillies, 5 to 4, and the runner-up Chicago Cubs failed to gain on the Pirates because they bowed to the New York Giants, 13 to 3. The Giants tallted eight runs in the eighth inning.

Dickey's suspension leaves Arndt JOJrgens with a very large pair of shoes to fill. Mir Dickey, who is 6 feet inches tall, and wears size 12, was hitting around .330 when suspended. He is the best hitting catcher in the league. At handling the Yankee pitchers he has proved a master.
 Jorgens who has been with the Yankees since 1929, is runt in stature, and while he batted .375 in some 13 games this year, his hitting mark for last season was but .270. At the time of the fistic exercises, Jorgens happened to be the only catcher Mccarthy had on the roster.

Society Circus began its four perform
ance career here today.
Distinguished by a list of sponsors
and box holders including Mrs Herbert

Opening with a grand parade OF the
performers, the circus encompasses a
series of acts brilliant with super
horsemanship, military splendor, the
charm of gayly-costumed children and
good comedy.
In addition to the ever exciting rodeo
and gymnastic events, which are said
to be without peer in the country,
several novelties have been contrived
for presentation this year. Troop E,

INTERSTATE BUSES
LEAVE CONGESTED
SECTIONS OF CITY
All Operators Obey Order of
Commission to Quit First
Parking Zone.
FEW FIND PERMANENT
TERMINAL LOCATIONS
Carriers Must Abandon All Curb
Stoppings in Washington
by August l.

The interstate bus business is out OF
the congeSted section of the city today
All operators have obeyed the order
OF the Public Utilities Commission to
get out Of the first parking zone, al
though few of them have found homes
that are expected to be permanent. In
moving, the operators carried out their
individual assurances, given to the COM
mission last week, that they would move
by April l.
Next Step August 1.
The next step in clearing up the con-
gestion of downtown streets by the
large interstate carriers will be August
!, when they must either get out of the
second zone or find terminals in the
second zone where the buSses stop on
private property and not at the curb.
From now on no terminal will be al
lowed in the first zone, whether on pri-
vate property or not.
Members of the commission gaZed
from their windows across the street
this morning and noted the absence of
the usual double parked buSses in front
of the two terminals at the corner of
Fourteenth and E streets. Traffic
seemed to flow there much more
smoothly.
The Short Lines. a trade name for a
half a dozen affiliated concerns, have
moved from their terminal at l349 E
street to the Metropolitan Hotel, 613
Pennsylvania avenue. The Lincoln and
Nevin lines and the Washington-Luray
buses will stop at a terminal at the
curb Of 807 Thirteenth street.
To Quit Curb Terminals.
The Washington, Marlboro & An
napolis and Peninsula Transit lines
and the Baltimore division of the
Washington Rapid Transit Co. have
moved to the Annapolis Hotel
The Greyhound and Blue Ridge lines
already had moved to 1917 New York
avenue. Such of these addresses as
involve curb terminals in the second
zone mean that the lines will have to
move again August l. or else estab-
lish stopping places off the street for
their vehicles in the secopd zone.
