DIz AND HUBBELL
BRING MONEY IN

There are more ways of finding
a gold mine than prospecting in
the western hills. One way Is to
do like Sam Breadon, owner Of
the st. Louis Cardinals, and Hor-
ace Stonanam, owner fthe New
York Giants.
Go out and dig up two Of base
balls greatest pitchers, such as
Dizzy Dean Of the Cardinals and
Carl Hubbell of the Giants, and
match them in series Of pitching
duels.
So far, this season, when Dizzy
and King Carl have opposed each
other the paid attendance COM
bined was 121, ,695-which is pretty
good Pay dirt" for the club own
erS.
Since Dizzy joined the Cardinals
in 1882, he and Hubbell have
started against each other 10
times and the count stands 8 to 4
in favor of the Giant southpaw.
Their first meeting was August
26, 1892, at Sportsman's Park, and
Dean was the winner, 4 to 2. Dizzy
also won the next meeing, Q to 5,
in New York, May 20, 1884. Hub
bell scored his first victory over
Dean, July "a, 1885. at st. Louis,
by 4 to 2. On September IL, the
same year, Dizzy beat Carl, 5 to 2,
but three days later Hubbell came
back and beat Dean, 7 to 3.
In New York on July 81, last
year, Hubbell squared accounts
with Dizzy by beating him, 2 to /.
in ten innings. And on September
3, King Carl went one up on Diz.
winning 2 to /, at St. Louis.
Hubbell on May 10, here this
year, increased his advantage by
two games when he beat Dizzy 4
to /. But, Dean cut it to one by
trouncing Carl June 9. at the Polo
Grounds, 8 to /. Hubbell went two
up again when he defeated Dizzy
at Sportsman Park, June 20, by
the same Score-8 to /.

Loss of EquipoiSe, whom he made,

now he seems again in stride

Hambletonian Stakes at
Goshen, N. Y. -. is the big rae
ing event of tomorrow. Horsemen
predict at least three heats, many
declare the richest race in the har-
ness world can't wind up in less
than four heats it's that open.
Broadcasting last years Ham
bletonian was a thriller, because
the Cinderella filly" Rosalind
.. made good in smashing style.
Airing tomorrow's race might prov
even a bigger thrill because it
promises to turn into one of those
knock-d o W n-and-drag-'e m-out af-
fairs with surprise ever in
the background.
Somewhere around $4,000 har-
ness racing fans will see the Ham
bletonian trotted-and they might
witness another battle royal like
Lord Jim's-didn't he beat the
mighty Muscletone, italian chal-

ship crown? Lord Jim'S victory is
still talked about by lovers Of trot-

grand Pathe newsreel.

Adams leads the American
jockey parade has won more
races this year than any of his
rivals anywhere. He's q blocky
built fellow. stout shoulders, along
the lines Of Fator, but chunkier
than Sloan-whoSe shoulders were
strong enough for q chap so
pounds heavier.
Chief critics of Adams are those
who cant see" his seat stir
rups short, knees high. Many cav
illerS brand Adams clumsy rider,
aver that he lacks style, art, in his
handling Of a horse.
Wonder how many who compare
the seats Of various jockeys to
