Such dressing as they do at
Ascot is beyond description.
Long, full dresses dragging the
ground, laces and fine materials
Of all kinds, the costumes are
simply gorgeous; the largest
hats imaginable, some of them
almost a yard across, feather
boas galore, lovely women ana
pretty girls dressed to the
teeth" as we say in America.
and, Just as everyone was para6-
ing equal to peacocks, up comes
a regular old Uppecville Horse
Show storm and soaks them all.
For, as told you, there had
been a drought here for months,
and no one thought of an UNI
brella or raincoat in all that
time.
Such wilted hats and mud
bedraggled skirts I have never
seen. It hurt to see all those
lovely clothes ruined.
haven't told you about the
men, but they were all looking
superb in grey topperS and cut
away coats and everything that
goes with them. All these good
looking Englishmen dressed this
way impressed me more than
the women, for after the rain
they were still looking well, as
their clothes took the damp
ness better. Madame Chanel,
the dress expert from Paris,
was there, and said, "A woman
to dress well has to be q
weather prophet as WELL" and
I noticed she had on a beauti-
full sports suit and small hat,
so she must be something Of a
prophet, for she couldn't have
looked better after the storm,
when everyone else was looking
so bec-aggled.

LONDON.-Roya1 Ascot, the
worlds most magnificent race
meeting, was held on a course
Is green as can be, in spite OF
England's drought Git has been
watered almost daily. The
course is beautiful beyond de.
scription.
I got there early, as I wanted
to see the King and Queen and
royal party arrive. The folks who
took me said this was something
an American should not miss.
The huge and gaily dressed ex-
pectant crowd did not have to
wait long after we got there, for
Just on the dot of / o'clock, in
the brilliant sunshine, up the
green course came the King and
queen into sight, sitting in open
landaus drawn by four lovely
gray horses, with positions In
scarlet and gold livery and black
velvet caps. They were greeted
with cheers from each side Of
the course all along the way, for
how England does adore Its
King and Queen!
Driving in the first carriage
with them was the Prince OF
Wales and the Duke of Glouces-
ter. Seven other carriages with
the royal party, consisting OF
some Of the most famous names
in England, I am told, came be-
hind them, and cheering con-
tinued until they reached the
royal box. This royal procession
along the course has hardly been
changed since it was inaugural
ed by George Nv over a hundred
years ago.
The royal box is so beautiful,
high up above the ground, with
q curved stairway leading up
on each side, old iron railings
on the outside of the steps, and
decorated and banked with
climbing roses and pink and
blue hydrangeas.
The huge rhododendron bed
outside the royal entrance was
full of crimson, pink, and white
blooms; and geraniums, naStur-
tiums, daisies, and many other
flowers of bright colors flanked
the pathways and band stands.
The lawns and green hedges
all around the place are won
derful to see. Really everything
about it is perfect, and, now
that royalty is seated, let's have
a word about the horses, with
out whom there would be no
Royal Ascot. 1 have never seen
so many beautiful and good
looking horses, and I was quite
bewildered by it all, and, not

The Cubs seven-game winning
streak came to a sudden and un-
expected ending when Sunny"
Jim Bottomley hit a homer in
the ninth to give the Cincinnati
Reds a 5-4 decision. The pill
was hard to take, for the
ChicagoanS seemed to be coaSting
to their eighth straight when the
deciding blow was made.
Chuck Klein's fourth homer of
the year was just so much wasted
effort when Bottomley broke up
the game.
The Phillies surprised every
one, including themselves, hang
ing up a 3.to-2 win over the
Giants. But they can thank
Ethan Allen for it, because it
was his homer that decided the
issue. Phil Collins had something
to say about the Phillies victory
for he held the Giants to five
hits while he hoped for and got
some hitting from his own mates.
They clipped FitzSimmons and
Bell for eight.
A veteran, Tom Zachary, OF
Boston, and a rookie, Emil
(Dutch) Leonard, Of Brooklyn,
hooked up in q mound duel at
Boston, but the old timer won
2-to-O. Each allowed six hits, but
the Dodger youngster made an
excellent showing.
The st. Louis Cardinals finally
came to life behind the fine
pitching of Bill Hallahan who
beat the Pirates. 10-to-1. Bill
kept his hits well spread while
his fellow Cardinals rolled up 16
off Birkofer, Chagnon and Smith.
The boys are beginning to won
der if they did not waste sym
pathy on Connie Mack and the
Athletics last winter when the
Philadelphians' crack pitching
staff was broken up and shipped
to other points in the circuit. The
fine pitching of Mack's youngsters
has started this second guessing
and the 80 triumph over the New
York Yankees lent more weight to
the opinion that Mack is a keen
trader.
Mahaffey and Cascarella al
lowed the Yankees nine hits be-
tween them, both youngsters hurl
ing like seasoned veterans in the
face of murderers row.
Mickey Cochran'S Detroit Tigers
are sizing up more each day as
real pennant threat in the Amer
ican League. Their 81 victory
over the Chicago White So2
pushed them ahead Of the Yam
KEGS into first place. Vic Sorrell
allowed five hits.
The Cleveland Indians and St
Louis Browns were idle because OF
wet grounds.

CONTEST SET
FOR MONDAY
INSTEAD
BY SID KATZNELL

Rain caused the postponement
Of the scheduled interhigh base
ball series game between Eastern
and Central today.
The game will be played Mon
day afternoon at $3.50 o'clock at
Eastern Stadium.
All eyes will be focused on Joe
Sullivan, Eastern's sturdy south
paw pitcher, and Claude Cowan,
Centrals blonde Highlander,
when the teams clash.
Sullivan is the product of the
local sandlots, having hurled sew
eral seasons with Fussell-Young,
while Cowan was developed right
at Central by Jack Ray, youthful
coach.
Low Score Expected
With these stellar pitchers on
the mound, low score contest Is
anticipated.
Ray has made one change in his
batting order, moving Lefty"
Chumbris up to third position and
placing Nick Pistolas, who made
quite a name for himself on the
gridiron, in the cleanup hole.
Harry Bassin will bat in the
cleanup position for the Indians.
Basin has been playing q great
game out in left field, and the
remarkable part Of it is the
position is entirely new to him.
Last year he held down the ini-
tial sack.
Keegin o Star
When you say something about
Eastern, you must say thing or
two about its sterling receiver,
Joe Keegin, who is widely known
for his football prowess. He can
catch with the best Of 'em and
can drive the OIL pill far, wide
and handsome.
Dunlap, Centrals backstopper,
10 a good fielding catcher, but
can't compare with Keegin when
it comes to hitting.
All in all, those who will make
the trip to Eastern Stadium will
have a real treat in store for
them.
Hap Hardell's trackmen should
he heard from in the Penn relays
at Philadelphia today.
His boys are going to compete
In the classified high school re-
lay and the Class B mile relay.
Thus far Hardell has selected
George Began, Byron Hayden,
