- will continue until the
end of that week. The goal is
$4,000. This is campaign
solely for the District of Della
ware, which includes all parts
of the state outside of Whining
ton. The amount is somewhat
larger than the usual budget be-
cause of the fact that an effort
is being made to have built at
Camp Otonka. the Y. w. C. A.
summer camp on Indian River, a
cabin that can be used all the
year round. This has been ac-
complished by the Boy Scouts at
their camp on the Chesapeake
Bay. and will enable the organ
izatiOn to carry out its winter
program at a concentrated point
during the cold months. The
Girl Reserves would enjoy a like
program, so while the yearly
budget is being attended to. the
extra amount will be solicited at
the same time. Milford has a
fine group of sixty girls who
would benefit by the erection of
a winter lodge. Foremost citi-
zens of the state are giving their
efforts toward this goal. Mrs. c.

GROVE IS HURL|NG
TO GREAT RECORD
Gives Only Six Earned Runs
in SIS Innings-HubbeII
Boosts Giants.
BY ORLO ROBERTSON,

| Associated Press Sports Writer.
~ OBERT MOSES GROVE Is
- throwing bigger and better
n surprise parties every time he
4 takes the mound for the
Red Sox.
Two years ago, the lanky southpaw.
pitching his first season for Boston.
was considered through when he just
managed to break even in 16 games.
Last year. however, he set at rest re-
ports that his arm had gone dead by
turning in the best earned-run aver
age Of 270 in the American League.
At the rate he is going this sea-
son, he'll not only surpass that mark,
but come close to topping his great
1881 performance, when he won 81
and lost only for the Athletics.
He turned in one of his best per-
formances of the year yesterday in
blanking the White Sox, 20, with four
hits. for his seventh victory and fourth
shutout Of the season. His only de-
feat came at Washington. where he
has been beaten l3 times.
| Here's how Groves record looked
after he had nosed out Vernon Ken
nedy in a pitching duel: Innings
pitched, IS; opponents runs. 8: earned
runs. 6; hits, a.; strikeouts, "a; bases
on balls, 8.
Kennedy in Rare Form.
GROVE needed all his speed and
cunning against the White Sox,
for Kennedy, who pitched a no-hit
game against the Indians last year,
limited Tom Yawkey's "millionaires"
to five hits and held them away from
the plate after the first inning.
| The performance of Grove was the
high spot of the day, which saw Alvin
Crowder, appearing in his second game
of the season and his first since April
%, hold the Nationals to five hits
while the Tigers pounded out a I'll
decision and Carl Hubbell checked
the Pirates to give the Giants their
eighth straight victory.
Hubbell was hit hard as the Giants
took AZ decision from the Pirates
for their eighth successive triumph,
but the screw-ball artist was effective
with men on bases. The Pirates had
men on bases in every inning ex-
cept one, while the Giants got only
seven safe blows of John Using and
Cy Blanton.
The Cardinals managed to hold
their half-ganfe lead over the Giants,
but it took a great finish against the
Phillies to get home in front by the
score of II to 8.

MYER GETS BACK
ON SECOND TODAY
Bolton May Be Out Longer
Than Expected, as a New
AiIment Develops.
ey a STAFF Correspondent of The Star.

By StaH correspondent OF lne StaI.
~ ETROIT, May 10 Capt.
Buddy Myer, 1885 American
League batting champion.
- was to take over his second
base position again today as the
Nationals prepared to face the world
champion Tigers in the final game Of
their current series.
With the encouraging words of Il
think I'm ready to help the club, -
Myer served notice on Manager Bucky
Harris that he was o. k. and Bucky,
while delighted with the pinch playing
job turned in by Red Kress, named
Buddy to start today.
Myer has been on the bench lately
due to stomach ailment. Apparently
he has not hit his stride at any time
this season inasmuch as Buddy is bat
ting in the low zoos. It may take
him at least a week to catch up with
the pitchers now, particularly since
light batting practice is all the drilling
Myer has taken in the last few days.
CLIF BOLTON, the other regular
~ National who has been on the
casualty list. may be on the shelf for
a longer period than first estimated,
although recent X-rays revealed that
mis- collision with Tony Piet did not
fracture any ribs. Cliff sustained a
bad bruise on his side but yesterday
he connlaine of a new soreness in the
right side of his chest. He cannot
run or bend over and 1t now seems
likely that he will be out for another
week.
Buck Newsom was to shoot for his
sixth victory Of the season today In
the Detroit finale. Tomorrow when
the Griffs invade Cleveland for the
opener of their initial series there,
Jimmy De Shong will try for his
fourth triumph Of the year.
