The party life of a conservative

lonely thing to cast a vote with no
bands, no badges and no comrades

The people, other than candidates,
who get the biggest thrill out of

swell their chests out honorably, for
they are a part of the show.

would think up a snappy title and

TEAM OF DESTINY
Wins A STRAIGHT
Needs Five More to Equal
Mark-RoWe, With 13,
Is Three Games Shy.
BY HUGH S. FULLERTON, JR.
Associated Press Sports Writer.

y ABELED as a team of destiny
as plainly as If the words had
been sewn on their uniforms,
IL the Detroit Tigers we're riding
the crest of the base ball wave
today as they faced the third game
of their important series with the
Yankees.
Triumphant in their opening dou-
ble-header with the second-place club
before a record crowd yesterday, the
Tigers had a 6l2-game lead, with
nothing more to do than protect it
in the three remaining games of the
series. They boasted two more bril-
liant achievements which shone the
brighter after yesterdays 9-to-5 and
7-to-3 victories. Their winning streak
had been stretched to Ia consecutive
games, Just short of the American
League record set by the White Sox
of 1906, and their young mound ace,
Lynwood (Schoolboy) Rove, had his
thirteenth successive mound triumph.
three behind the league record in that
respect, held jointly by Walter john
son and Joe Wood.
Today Tommy Bridges. second only
to Rowe among the Tiger pitchers,
was ready to face either Johnny
Broaca or Johnny Murphy, the only
Yankee moundsmen available to start
after five fingers tried vainly to stop
the Detroit assaults yesterday. For
Thursday it is. Eden Auker's turn
and then Rowe may be sent back in
the final clash of the series.

SUSPENDED DEANS
DECIDE OWN FATE
May Return, but Fines for
Missing Detroit Game
Stick, Says Frisch.

BY the Associated Press.
ut. LOUIS, August 15.-The tru-
- ant pitching aces of the Cardi-
mails, Dizzy and Paul Dean, may
. be back in the fold within
short time-if they don't decide
fishing in Florida is more attractive
than pitching for the st. Louis Ma
tionals.
It's up to them, Manager frankie
Frisch said here yesterday. Although
they have been suspended without pay
and fined for not accompanying the
club to Detroit for an exhibition
game, they are free to rejoin the team
whenever they see fit, Frisch said.
Disciplinary action was taken on the
teams return from Detroit, Dizzy
being fined $l00 and Paul $50. Dizzy
was given the heavier fine, Sam
Breadon, president of the club, said,
because he is the older and receives
more salary. Breadon's opinion was
that Paul was influenced by Dizzy.
Tear Up Uniforms.
IN BEING suspended by Frisch
I Dizzy tore up their uniforms.
Then the pair headed for the
office to get paid off, but the treas
urer told them to come back this
morning, as this is pay day for the
Cardinals.
Breadon announced he will back up
Frisch in the action. The Redbirds'
manager declared that he must have
discipline.
They had no excuse for not going
to Detroit with u.s." Frisch said, so I
fined them. And after they wouldn't
play, I suspended them. However,
they can put on their uniforms any
time they care to, but the fines stick"
The Dean brothers and Dizzys wife
were spectators at yesterdays game be-
tween the Cards and Philadelphia.
About the fourth inning Mrs. Dean
got up from her chair and said,
Come on. Diz, let's CO."
And when they were asked where
they were going she replied; TO
Florida"

Desperate Effort Fruitless.

4 PPARENTLY, Weetamoe's course
n could not be altered again. for,
in a desperate attempt to ward
off her impending fate, another spin
maker was sent up in stops, but 1t
could not be broken out in time to
prevent her from going ashore on
the middle ground shoal. Once on,
she stuck fast and it was two hours
later before she was pulled off.
At the start of the New York Yacht
Clubs run from Mattapoisett to the
Vineyard there was light southwest
breeze.
Rainbow had the best of the start
and turned the Hen and Chickens
lightship first in hour 8 minutes.
Yankee turned in 1:09:15, Vanitie,
1:l1:00, and Weetamoe, 1:14:00. The
order was unchanged on the leg to
Vineyard Haven, with the times:
Rainbow, 1:37:24; Yankee, 1:39:49;
Vaniitie. 1:45:27; Weetamoe. 1:49:51.
Yankee Immediately broke out a
parachute Spinnaker of some $4,000
square feet, and Weetamoe set similar
canvas, while Vanitie and Rainbow
stuck to big single spinnakers and
ballooners. It was the first time this
season that Yankee has carried her
parachute in race.

II don't know" said Mr.. Doyle
""That's one game never played. But
if you'll give me just 20 minutes I'll
have them for you"
We gave him Is minutes.
'I have been informed reliably"
said Mr.. Doyle, who had been waiting
for us, that the odds are IA against
the caster; that is to say, he will lose
IA out of 100 if he plays long enough.
That is the house margin, as they
say. 1t is very small. Because it is
very small, craps is popular game
everywhere. Roulette. mind you, is
5.4 against the player. Good night"
So. with this fitting over that like
nice silk glove. We hope to bury the
subject before committing hara-kiri.

Confirms Gravity of Situa ton.

nut a couple of weeks ago Mr..
u Joseph ". Mccarthy came into
town with rueful face and
admitted that it would take several
charges of extremely strong dynamite
to remove the Tigers from their comi-
cal perch. Mr.. Mccarthy was so
earnest about it that the fans took
him seriously. Every day now they
go up to the New York geological gar
den and hiss the tigers there for the
principle OF the thing.
The rise Of Detroit is not an
overwhelming surprise, but 1t
has caught several expert prog
nosticators in a fiat footed posi-
tion.
Think back to the beginning of the
year, when the Tigers were training
in Lakeland, Fla. The boys conceded
that they were a strong club then,
but none of them. not even Mr.
Cochrane himself, spoke confidently
of a world series in Detroit.
Mr.. Cochrane, visiting us now in
the month of August, recalls that
few faithful Detroit blokes cherished
visions of a pennant and even dis
cussed it in a firm tone of voice. For
instance. there was Mr.. H. G. SAL
singer, the astute and patriotic biog-
rapher of the Tigers. Mr.. Salsinger
spoke warmly last March of the clubs
pitching, speed and power. He said
the Tigers appeared to him like q
championship ball club.

however, there were very few

up several embarrassing questions,
namely: What business have they
got in first place? Who ever thought
they were going to be there? Are
they going to hug the peak all year
or will they slip of with an acute
attack of vertigo?
They are in the midst of So
called crucial series now, though Mike
Cochrane, the hustling horn-tooter,
insists it is no more important to
him than any other series.
We're not going in there to do or
die" said Mr.. Cochrane, on hitting
town with his troupe. We've got
plenty more ball games on our sched-
ule, and we'd be crazy to behave as
though this was the crisis of the
season. We've got comfortable lead,
and we're going to protect it."
Mr.. Cochrane to the contrary
notwithstanding, this is a very
crucial series. The Detroit club
has ceased to be funny.
For while, in the early stages of
the season, the Yankee fans were
telling each other mirthfully that
some sugar bush club from place
called Michigan was stepping out
there in front and impersonating a
pennant winner. The Yankee fans
used Swedish and Chinese dialect in
telling this story, to show how funny
1t was.

MYTH a crowd of 77,000 cash
|" customers. one of the great
est in base ball annals, look
ing on, the Tigers twice performed
their favorite feat Of coming from
behind to victory. After allowing
their opponents five runs in the first
three innings of the opener. they
blasted Lefty Gomez into submission
to tie the score in the sixth as Charley
Gehringer opened the rally with the
first of two home runs he hit during
the day. In the next inning Jimmy
Deshong was pelted out when the
Tigers again batted around and scored
four runs.
Meanwhile General" Alvin Crow
der, recent cast-off from the Senators,
justified Mickey Cochrane's mana
gerial strategy in picking him as
starting pitcher. He recovered from
his bad start and pitched shutout bah
for five innings before Fred Marberry
finally relieved him in the ninth.
Rowe was the biggest factor in the
second triumph as he pitched four hit
ball and walked only one. But after
Gehringer again provided a flying
start with first-inning homer. the
Yanks were able to tie the coupti in
the sixth when Lou Gehrig slammed
his thirty-seventh circuit blow of the
season. Charley Ruffing, who pitched
the whole game for New York and
struck out II, failed to match the
grown-up schoolboy in the last two
frames and yielded three hits and two
runs in each.

Make Right Guess.

THE guess of the Yankee proved
the right one on light sails, for,
at once, she began to overhaul the
Rainbow and, in less than three miles,
was only few lengths astern.
Rainbow's three competitors were
coming at faster sailing angle and
it was apparent, some miles from the
finish, that they would beat her.
Yankee was forced to carry her big
spinnaker well forward as she came
across from the Vineyard shore and
she finally took it in, on the middle
ground, and finished under reaching
jib and mainSail alone.

first time this season. but
Charles Francis Adams and
the afterguard of the Boston sloop
still had a trick up their sleeves and
the Yankee came home winner by
more than five minutes.
This surprise move was the break
ing out of a parachute spinnaker
after rounding the Vineyard Sound
lightship and, combined with other
circumstances, it gave Yankee her
victory and allowed Vanitie also to
beat Rainbow.
Had it not been for the fact that
she went aground a mile or so from
the finish, Weetamoe also probably
would have defeated Rainbow. The
Prince boat was coming up toward
the finish line in third place, with
her parachute drawing beautifully,
when something suddenly went wrong.
Either the halyard gave way, or the
sail pulled away from the headboard
and went over the bow. Weetmoe
Immediately was shot into the wind
in order to clear away the wreckage

Odds and Chances.

TN THE first case, there were IL
immediate chances of success or
failure, it is to be remembered.
Now, using 1886 of $3.50 (Which is a
convenient common denominator), or
1920, we find that the ratio of win
ming and losing chances at 2 to l in
the first instance may be divided into
$50 winning chances and 440 losing
ones.
Likewise, 1896 of $3.50 (still very
handy, or 1,100, may be divided into
500 winning chances and 600 losing
chances, and 1886 of 1850, or $50,
may be divided into $50 winning
chances and 528 losing chances in the
third instance. Also. 6/36 of $3.50. or
$50, may be divided in the fourth case
into 220 winning chances and 440
losing ones.
Well, if you have followed it so far,
the rest will be easy. 1t all totals
something like this:
Winning chances .............. 1852
