Picked for 2-Game Series.
Appleton Battles Tigers
as Mats Win, 1922.
Special Dispatch to The Star,

Special Dispatch to The Star.
CLEVELAND, Ohio Sept. 20.-On
the last lap of their last Western trip
the Mats are here today for a two
game series with the Indians. Bucky
Harris has picked Emil Dutch) Leon
ard to pitch this afternoon and will
call on the left-handed Joe Krakaus-
kas tomorrow, or vice versa.
Harris will be we'll satisfied if each
turns in a performance equal to that
OF Pete Appleton against the Tigers in
Detroit yesterday. The 34-year-old
right-hander, back in the area where
he gained his first athletic fame as
pitcher for the University Of Michi-
gan, has rarely been more effective. He
limited the Tigers to five hits while the
Mats were piling up II at the expense
OF four Detroit hurlerS to win, II to 2.
Foils Greenberg's Hitting.
Among other things, Appleton tenn
porarily squelched the aspirations Of
Hank Greenberg to tie or break the
home run record of Babe Ruth. Green
berg, trying to increase his total of SO,
was restricted to a scratch single. In
the eighth inning, grounder from his
bat bounced of Buddy Lewis glove
Cecil Travis recovered the ball and
made play at first base, but Umpire
William Grieve ruled that Greenberg
beat the throw. His margin, If any,
was extremely close.
incidentally Greenberg has made
eight Of his SO homers off Washington
pitchers. His victims were Jimmy De
Shong twice, Emil Leonard, Wesley
Ferrell, Elon Hogsett, Monte Weaver,
Appleton and Kendall Chase None of
the homers was made in the two-game
series that ended yesterday, when the
Mats gained an even break for their
last invasion Of Detroit.
Another Homer for Zeke.
Washington's attack routed Vernon
Kennedy in the fourth inning. Roxie
Lawson, his immediate successor, left
the premises in the sixth, after Taft
Wright tripled with the bases filled.
Jake Wade relieved Lawson and yield
ed a home run to Zeke Bonura, the
first batter to face him. 1t was the
big first basemans second circuit blow
in two days
In the last two innings the Mats
had chance to look at the offerings
OF Bob Harris, recruit right -hander
from Toledo. They made three singles
and an unearned run off his delivery.
Notable in the Washington offense,
OF which Wright was the leader, with
two singles, double and a triple, was
Angelo Giuliani. The young catcher
hit three successive singles and drove
in two runs besides scoring one him
self.
After the series here the Mats move
to Philadelphia. thence to New York
and Boston. They will not be back At
Griffith Stadium until October l, when
they open a two-day engagement with
the Athletics that closes another sea-
son.

BY HUGH s. FULLERTON, Jr.,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

Like the famous Ill wind, the Pitts
burgh Pirates would have you believe
it's an Ill rain that helps no ones PEN
nant prospects.
The entire National League program
OF four doubleheaders was rained right
of the 1888 program yesterday and
that, in its way. was somewhat more
important than any Of the three games
played in the American League.
While the league-leading Pirates
were deprived of chance to improve
their record at the expense Of the
Phillies, they marked up two games
that can't be lost and two apiece that
their rivals. the Chicago Cubs and
Cincinnati Reds, can't win. They now
have IA to go and Chicago and Cin-
cinnati 13 apiece.
Lead Now Formidable.
Thus the standing of the pennant
contenders looks like this:

Russia and China agreed last night
to carry before the council-in
secret session today and later in
public SeSsIOn-a resolution asking
that the league consider giving in
dividual aid to the Chinese.
The resolution also authorizes
league members TO approach nom
member states, such as the United
States, regarding such Chinese as
Sistance.
The decision, although it effect
ed a compromise between the Chi
nese and French, actually gave
China little more than she already
had obtained from the league UNI
der a resolution of last October D
which asked that the league men,
berS refrain from taking any ac-
ton which might have the effect
of weakening China's power OF
resistance"
The October 5 resolution also
suggested that the league powers
should consider how far they, can
individually extend aid to emma
and consult with other nations OUT
side the league"
The new resolution actually cen
stitutes mere repetition OF the
statement Of last October.
