) White sox II to 7. Mr.. Horton
writes:
"The grand old pastime
seems to have resolved itself in
to q game Of sock and this stu
alton has been encouraged by
the magnateS who insist on
foisting the rabbit ball on the
fans.
ut is my belief that If this
ball is retained it will only be
a matter of time until the game
will be utterly devoid of skill
and science.
Base Stealing Out
"Gone is the great art Of
base stealing as there is no
longer any necessity for piIfer.
ing bags in view Of the pre-.
dominance Of hitting.
"TOO, seldom do we see the
thrilling play Of o runner being
thrown out at home attempting
to score from second on a
single. The OutfielderS are
playing so deep now that those
stirring plays are almost i'm
possible"
Mr.. Horizons observations are
of the type one frequently
hears, particularly among the
older school of fans. However,
baseball is living in a new age
and the clouters of the Babe
Ruth and Jimmy Foxx type
have made banging the apple
the popular thing. So long as
that sentiment obtains, the
magnates will provide the type
of ball which will assure the
greatest amount of clouting. It's
business, my dear vdr. Horton.
The majority must be pleased
and this happens to be an era
Of baseball wherein artillery is
the thing.
Not Like Same Club
The Chicago White sox, who
defeated the Griffmen to ! in
the final game Of the initial in
vasion of the local stadium, in
no way resembled the team that
dropped the first three games
to Joe Cronin's crew.
Inspired by the knowledge
they had a new leader at the
helm, the Windy City outfit
showed pepper from the out
set, the infielders, led by Jimmy
Dykes himself, chattering en-
couragement to one and another
throughout the game, and 9TH
erwise displaying signs Of life
which had been noticeably miss
ing the three previous days. In
a single day a quite splritless
team was transformed into one
filled with fire and dash.
Furthermore, the visitors land
ed on three Washington pitch
erS for 13 hits, connecting in
all except the seventh and
4linth innings.
Muddy Ruel reflected the re-
juvenated feelings Of the Chi
cago team as a whole when he
said the new deal was the tonic
the club needed, and that every
man is going to work his head
off for Jimmy Dykes in an ef-
fort to get the club out Of the
cellar. They certainly proved
such intentions in their first
effort under Jimmy, Milt Gas
ton heaving Superbly to hold
Washington to three widely
scattered blows and his club hit
ting like fury behind him.

SPORTS
D., HIDH NAIl
CaUdLcGde Is Needed
To Make PreakneSs
100 Per Cent Success
By KIRK MILLER

Scores upon scores Of racing
fans who will be within striking
distance of Pimlico next Satur-
day are hoping that Trainer
Bob smith, who makes his
home in washington during
the month Of october when the
horses are at Laurel, will find
1t advisable to let the great
three.year-old Cavalcade race
in the Preakness.
I would say that CaValcade
in the historic Maryland classic
would spice that event with
lust about everything it needed.
He stands alone as the miracle
horse of the 1884 spring sea-
son. Besides his three-year-old
campaign will not be exactly
complete unless he takes a
crack at all Of the important
stakes.
And then there is another
angle that would make Caval-
cade's presence in the Freak
ness highly desirable-it being
the chance it would offord his
owner, Mrs. Isabel Dodge Sloane
to become the first woman to
score a double in the Derby
and Preakness. AS 1t stands,
believe she is the second woman
owner to win a Derby, the
other being Mrs. Rosa M. Hoots,
the Oklahoma proprietor OF
Black Gold, Derby winner IN
1924. Black Gold did not run
in the PreakneSs.
About Non-Appearances
It is to be hoped that very
strict regulations will be built
around the general subject OF
nonappearances Of fighters
who will be booked to ex'
hibit in Washington rings.
Nothing riles the man who
spends his money to see an
advertised fighter, so much as
to learn when he is once IN
side that one or the other OF
the scheduled opponents are
not to be present.
In the more important bouts,
forfeiture money should be re-
uuired Of proposed opponents
and in flagrant cases Of dello'
crate run-outs not supported by
established physical disability,
a fighter should be barred from
competition for a sufficiently
long period to make him think
twice before trying it again.
NonappearanceS are among
the greatest abuses to which
fight customers are subjected.
In Washington the rules pun
ishing such practices should be
so severe they will be the excep"
ton rather than the rule.
Deplorss Lively Ball
c. z. Horton, in a comnun1'
cation to this bureau, deplores
the presence Of the lively base
ball in the major leagues. He
declares 1t has robbed the game
of that smart, inside baseball
which characterized the sport
during its rise to prominence.
Referring to the baseball de-
bacle of the current week in
which the Griffs defeated the
