FOR SLUMP OF DODGER TEAM

thing, and the first man he may
yank out is none other than the
leagues leading batsman of 1882,
Lefty ODoul, who is playing poorly
afield and has made only eight
hits in 38 trips to the plate on The
Dodgers western tour
ODoul has been holding down the
left field post, and Hack Wilson and
Danny Taylor have been occupying
the centerfield post, with neither
accomplishing much. Johnny Fred
erick, in right field, represents the
only strength in the pickets. He
has been doing fair job in the
field and batting .36l.
Early in the season Manager
Carey was worried about his pitch
ing, but the Fingers have come
through better than expected Con-
sequently the failure of O'Doul and
Wilson to back up the hullers and
furnish drive to the batting order
has been a severe blow. It's an open
secret that Max is trolling the
minors as well as the majors for
outfield material.
The Dodgers landed in seventh
place yesterday when beaten, to
/, by Cincinnati, as Paul Derrin-
ser, recently acquired from st.
Louis, turned in his first victory
of the season. The Reds moved
into fourth place.
Cubs Move Up
Chicago jumped from seventh to
fifth place by blanking Boston, 3
10 0, behind Pat Malone'S two-hit
pitching.
New York at Pittsburgh was
washed out, and Philadelphia at
st. Louis will be played in double
header Sunday.
Washington replaced Chicago at
second position in the American
league by beating st. Louis, to 2,
aided by Bob Boken's triple, double
and single.
Philadelphia seventh straight
victory gave the Athletics a third
place tie with Chicago. The AS
downed Detroit, 10 8, when Pinkey
Higgins 18th inning home run pro-
vided the winning talley. Max
Bishop also drove out homer for
the AS i'll the first inning, and his
mate, Ed Coleman, tied the count
with a circuit drive IN the ninth.
Cleveland downed Boston, 3 to =,
when Dusty Cooke dropped Earl
Averill's fly permitting the winning
run to score in the fifth. Marty
McManus made a homer for TIE
Red SoX in the eighth.
Threatening weather prevented
Chicago's playing at New York.

NEW YORK, May 26. = The
Brooklyn Dodgers, picked by some
experts to win the National league
pennant this season, have slipped
toward the cellar because of the
collapse of their outfield.
Six defeats in their last seven
starts dropped them into seventh
place. Unless the fly chasers snap
out of their slump, or unless Mali
ager Max Carey reorganizes the
outfield, even worse is in prospect.

In this connection couldn't help
but laugh at the fellow who stole
the turtle out OF the prison school
demonstration room and made
turtle soup out OF II. Maybe his in
structors were trying to teach him
something about the turtle but that
fellow didn't want TO learn any
thing more than how to eat turtle

the turtle for that purpose. At least
that. apparently, was the only ex-
PLANTATION that could be given for
