FOR SAD BRAVES

w YALLY BERGER Of the lowly
M Boston Braves doesn't have
w many fans watching him
these days, but In view Of
his performance it's quite likely
either the amazing Cubs or the
steady Tigers would be glad to have
him around for the world series.
While the Cubs were clinching the
National League pennant and ex-
tending their great winning streak to
81 games with a double victory over
the Cardinals, 6-2 and 5-3, the Braves
we're extending their record string Of
losses to ia for the season by split
ting bargain bill with the Giants.
Berger. however. continued to cover
himself with glory. He contributed q
hit to the opening 6-to-4 victory, in
which the cellar dwellers routed Carl
Hubbell In two innings, then belted
his thirty-fourth home run Of the
year in the last inning Of the after
piece. ,
WaIly drove In two counters in that
game, bringing his seasons total to
l27. That's no mean feat, considering
the Braves scored only $50 runs all
season. His hitting, however. was
not enough to keep the Giants from
winning the battle 8 to S when q six
run burst in the seventh overcame
Boston's early lead and Roy Parm-
elee's fine relief pitching maintained
the advantage.
The two bargain bills were the only
major league games played yesterday
as the Detroit Chicago and st. Louis
Cleveland games in the American
League were rained out and the
other clubs had q day Of scheduled

. revolutionary system Of lighting
may be inaugurated with this step.
The system is one which has been
patented by George F. Cahill. pio-
neer in this type Of light construction.
Cahilps invention. which he recently
patented, is not unlike carefully
shaded stage lighting schemes.
While Grifith has denied that he
will seek night ball for his Nationals
in the Capital next year, officials Of
the Washington ball club are not sit
ting back and closing their eyes to the
possibilities to the nocturnal game.
Quietly and unofficially, Secretary Ed

|MAUNA LOA LAVA
POURS FROM RIFT
Jets 400 Feet High Forced
From Crack in Side of
Mountain.
3y the Associated Press.

6y Lde AeSoclateu Ffess.
HIO, Hawaii, November 25.-A
scarlet river Of lava rolled toward
Hilo today, the boiling mass fed by
great fountains spouting from q new
rift In Mauna Loa Mountain.
The molten rock, spewed 400 feet
into the river by the pressure Of sub
terranean gases, followed a bed left
by an eruption in 1855, when lava
flowed to within miles Of the city.
In places, the speed Of the flow
was estimated by Hawaii National
Park stan men at rs miles an hour.
Its pace diminished as 1t cooled,
however, and little fear was felt for
this city, separated from Mauna Loa
by some 40 miles Of comparatively fat,
rough table lands.
Another lava. river divided, one
branch flowing between Mau1a Loa
and Mauna Kea and the other toward
Keamoku. Both branches were NOV
ing slowly, but should the lava con-
tinue toward Keamoku 1t would inter-
sect the mountain highway and create
q serious uaInc problem.
Crater Activity Ceases.
Activity in Mokuaweoweo crater, at
the top Of Mauna Loa, had ceased
said an sirplane pilot who fiew over
the volcano.
The great new break in the noun
tain was discovered by e. G. Wingate.
superintendent of Hawaii National
Park, who has established camp
high up toward the summit.
At one point, he said. the lava
pushed upward into a huge cone rs
feet high, around which the fiery
liquid rock bubbled and spurted. Then
the great crack two miles long opened
In the mountain wall and fountains
Of lava arched 400 feet into the air.
'It was an awe-inspiring sight,
Wingate said.
The new lava flow enlanated from
the northeast side Wingate said he
believed it might continue indefinitely.
Visitors Keep Planes Busy.
Visitors were coming from all parts
Of the islands to watch the red rivers.
Facilities of Inter-Island Anyways,
operating q feet of planes from Homo
lulu, were booked solid for four days
ahead, officials stated.
Observers said the latter flow might
cross the mountain highway, provid-
ing q major traffic problem.
Lava Is so hot that it cannot be
touched for at least year. In many
cases steaks have been cooked on lava
year old.
Long after cuts had been made
through q lava bed for the present
Keamoku Highway steam rose from
the hot mass whenever 1t rained.
