THROUGH STATE
CAPITAL KEYHOLES
By BEss HINTON SILVER


Representative w. L. Lumpkin, of
Franklin, is doing a bit of letter
writing these days in the hope of
lining things up for his compaign for
Lieutenant Governor. Meantime, Rep
resentative R. Gregg Cherry, of Gas
ton, chairman of the 1888 House FL
nance Committee, is sitting back in
his law office in Gastonia awaiting
the reception of his unofficial an
nouncement for the speakership.
Major Cherry says he doesn't intend
to pillow up the State Capitol in an
effort to be made Speaker but if you
want fight on your hands just
tackle one fthose Cherry boys. 1t
look interesting from his distance.
HORTON
Senator w. P. Horton, of Chatham,
complicated things for one or two
people when he definitely announced
that he will be candidate for Lieu
tenant Governor. Senator Paul D..
Grady, of Johnston, already has his
hat in the ring and in addition to
Lumpkin Senator Carl L. Bailey, of
Washington, and former Senator
George Mcneil, of Cumberland, both
are considered real threats for the
post. Some people are wondering why
the Number Two post in the State
Government has suddenly become so
popular.

At Maryland there is no need
for apprehension.
Bill Hotel, the white-hot
typewriter technician, like the
doctor and undertaken, is as
close as the nearest phone.
Bill never changes from year
, to year. He simply keeps cop
les of his stories of last year
and inserts fresh names in the
places of the players who grad
uated and generally means
about Maryland's chances,
laughing up his sleeve the
while.
Gloomy Gil Dobie got his big
idea after hearing Hotel pub
icly complain of the poor
material at College Park and
pirate of the probability that the
Terrapins would be lucky to
win two games and tie as many.
Here is a typical official COM

Maryland is in a helIuva fix

so many games as she was lucky

managers bringing him weeping
towels. The prospects are aw-
full. 1t will finish last in the

Dick Tennyson and his crew of

This seemingly contradictory

series to decide the championship
Of the Industrial League.
Fifteen hundred spectators
watched Acacia defeat Center
Market, 6 to 3, on the East Ell
lipse, in the first game of three
game series to determine the
championship Of the National
Capital League.
The Brewers, who had first
raps. scored their winning runs
in the ninth frame. The score
had been l to / until that fatal
ninth and Lefty" Porter had
pitched brilliant ball, but the
Heurichmen went to the bat in
their last inning with fire in their
eyes and a will to win.
This is what they did to Porter.
COlliere Doubles
"Fee" Colliere, rotund catcher,
slapped double over third.
Pitcher Brown beat out a bunt
and Colliere raced to third when
Catcher Xander threw into center
field attempting to catch Colliere
between the bases.
Marcus Chaconas. who has been
playing baseball for gosh knows
how many years. singled sharply
to right scoring Colliere. Shelton,
who holds down the keystone
sack, singled to left scorin g
Chaconas and Brown.
Lefty" Brown held the Market
men in check in their half OF
the ninth and that was the ball
game. In fact, Brown had the
Marketmen eating out of his
hands during the whole game, al
lowing them only two hits and
striking out 10. Porter pitched
great ball until that jinx ninth
Meet Today, Maybe
If weather permits the teams
will clash again today on the

the Brewers can cop the crown.
Bill Albert's home run with

|the winning cluster OF runs
scored by the Indians in the first
inning, but Kress also made bril-
liant catches of line drives off
the bat of Eddie Phillips and
Wallis Hudlin in the sixth inning.
Buck Newsom not only pitched
a good game, but he hit a good
game. His double in the sixth
inning led to Washington's first
run, and his single in the eighth
with two out gave the Griffs a
chance which never developed be-
yond the threat stage.
incidentally Newsom's best
pitching was in the eighth inning
when Hale opened with a triple
and was left on third.
Kress not only opened the gate
for the first Cleveland run by boot
ing Galatzer's grounder, but fail

dian stole. Newsom pitched high

GR|ST OF THE GRIFFS
By FRANK BUCK" o'NEILL
Times Staff Writer
Times Staff Writer

CHICAGO, Aug. 21.-Over in
Cleveland critics are debating
whether or not a glaring fault
in the batting form of Louis
"Bozie" Berger will shorten an
otherwise promising major
league career.
Berger is a cat on ground
balls. He has fine arm and
makes the most astonishing
plays. Cleveland critics can cite
many instances on which Berger
wcnt beyond second base and got
potential hits to throw his man
at first.
Berger now has an average Of
.265 or Whereabouts, and this,
with his ability as a fielder,
should be enough to insure his
position with the Indians indefi-
nitely. But Berger is slipping
daily in his hitting, and it is
because of his batting style.
Gripping the bat at the end,
Berger drops his left elbow close
to his side and breaks the arc
of his swing. He tags one occa-
sionally, and drives it long
ways.
The probabilities are that if
Berger would spend "a month
this fall with Roland Mckenzie
out at Congressional or with
some other golf stylist who
would apply the principles of golf
to Berger's left arm the kid
would improve greatly over the
winter. 1t surely. wouldn't do
him the slightest bit of harm.
Chatting about golf, your Cos
Siping representative CHI t t e d
through a good part of yester'
days game in Cleveland with
Alva Bradley, president of the
Cleveland club. Hal Trosky
came to the bat and Bradley said;
watch him look at his
right foot"
Sure enough. Trosky did j.st
that, and then Bradley started
to tell the tale. It seems that
Trosky was having a terrible
time getting his hits. Mr.. Brad.
ley noticed that Trosky's right
foot was pointed out so that his
pivot was wrong. He forthwith
told Steve O'Neill about it, and
Mel Harder produced a motion
picture film to show how Trosky
was standing last year. Hits are
ringing from Trosky's bat now
with the corrected stance and if
they did it for Trosky, why can't
it be done for Berger?
One of the nifty plays of the
game was Knickerbocker's swift
recovery of a drive by Travis
which Hudlin DETECTED. Knick.
erbocker was on the ball like a
hawk and made a fine throw to
first base.
Holbrook lost bit in the third
inning thanks to a nifty stop by
TroSky and fine bit of bag
covering by Hudlin.
