 CUT OF BOUNDS; SO
 SCHEDULE SUSPENDED

The war is temporarily over be- tween the Tallapoosa baseball squad and the Cardinals. Lack of ammunition is given as the reason for the suspension of hos tilities, and there will be no more games until somebody produces some balls.
 Already this season the sailors have lost 24, and nov 1t is up to the Cardinals to supply materials of warfare for a while. Unfor- tunately, the treasury of the club is depleted just at present, and it is source of great concern to both outfits just where the horsehide spheres are to come from.
 However, according to Irving Ha- gerup, good Cardinal never says die, and it is to be presumed that copious quantities of balls will soon be forthcoming.

CLEVELAND NEXT YEAR?

The only thing the 1884 all-star battle lacked was 8 brass band or two and that can hardly be clas- sified as serious omission, since it was the idea to keep expenses down to a minimum and turn over the bulk of receipts to charitable cause.-the fund for the benefit Of old and indigent ball players, in two years. this fund has derived about $15,000 from the all-star proceedings.

 to Traynor and the agile Pepper Martin.
 Higgins was Joe Cronin's orig iral public choice for the position, after he decided to disregard the fans preference for Jimmy Dykes of the White Sox, but it seems that Cronin all the time had made up his mind to put Foxx in the spot anyway. Perhaps this was based on the idea that if the As had any candidate for all-star rec ognition it was Foxx and that it was no more than fair to put Jim mic in there, even if it had to be in the wrong position.

LEGION RALLY TO WIN IN 7TH
 WITH TWO OUT
Vets Boot Away Game in Own Half of Final then
 Win on Koshak's Hit

At the last possible chance, wltf two men away and the winning run on base, Koshak yesterday made himself the hero of the game as he drove a hot double through short to drive in the two run: necessary for the Legion to coms from behind and beat the. Elks g to 8. Like most of the Elks- Legion frays, this game was close but it was not until the seventh inning that things really began to happen. In their half of the sew enth the Elks got to Junge fol five runs and placed themselves one run ahead of the Vets. Which made the Legion sore and they came up ready to do or die.
 Erskine Goes Tn
 When it looked like MacSpadden had lost control of his deliveries after walking MacSpadden and Nc Alister, who pinch-hitted for Lowe Manager Koski jerked the Elk pitcher and put in his star, Frs kline. Claude forced Roller tt knock q fly and Rodenberg whiffed Then with the count three anc two Koshak made his blow that spelled defeat for the Elks anc for Erskine.
 In general the Legion was the superior team and were burning the horsehide in every inning as they got to MacSpadden for twelve hits, including homer and foul doubles. Junge practically had the Bills guessing until the final in- ming when his wildness mixed with poor baseball showed him into a hole out of which he returned to find his team one run behind
 Unearned Run
 The Bills first run was of the unearned run variety. It all hap pened when Jim Orme walked, ad- vanced to second on sacrifice and came home as Willie Roden- berg looked bad on fly that he both misjudged and let through his hands.
 Joe Shows clean home run over the left field fence tied the score for the Vets. And Lowe singled went to third on wild throw and came home on Rollers double to put the Vets on the right side of the ledger.
 Legion Tally Two
 Rollers second hit and Junge's double in the fourth stretched the Legion advantage to two runs, but the Elks hacked away a run in the fifth. Buss Orme singled through the box, took second on a net bunt of Nello's which went for a hit, and came home on Liv- ingston's fielder's choice. On that play, Snow had made wonderful stop to nab Nelle at second, but failed to cover the bag on the re- turn throw, the ball thus going wild and bringing in the run
 Makes Sixth Homer
 Nowe1l's double, Shows single, and McLaughlin's fielder's choice brought in another run for the Legian in their half of the fifth. Not content, the Elks made one themselves in the sixth as Erskine made his sixth homer of the sea- son.
 It looked like the Vets put the game away in the cooler in the last of the sixth as they made two hits, took advantage of two errors, when Livingston failed to nab Koshak at third and Garn

IT'S THE BENCH FOR LOU

Rated strictly off his work i1i the two all-star games so far, Iron Man Lou Gehrig of the Yankees is about due for a seat on the bench next year, with Jimmy Foxx getting long delayed chance to step into the show in his regular position. Gehrig didn't get hit in either contest and he contrib uted one error each time.
 Foxx was put on third base, a compliment solely to his batting strength, but he did not look a bit comfortable out there. Jimmie has been on the hot corner before but he isn't third baseman by trade and it is a trifle ridiculous to make up an all-star infield with two first basemen, especially when there's a lad named Pinky Higgins of the Athletics, team mate of Foxx's and probably the best third gaseman in either of the leagues, with all due apologies
