Cincinnati Still
0ne-Game Awav:
Cubs Advance

CINCINNATI, Sept. %. CUP)-
The Cincinnati Reds, who haven't
scored run in 25 consecutive in
nlngs, battled today to throw of
one of their worst batting slumps
OF the season and beat the st
Louis Cardinals in the game they
need to clinch the National league
pennant.
With a 215 game lead the Reds
can clinch the flag by taking the
final game of the Cardinal series
But if they lose they must take
two out of three in the windup
series with the Pirates to win the
pennant.
Since Billy Myers hit a homer
with two mates on base in the Sec
ond inning of the first game of
Tuesdays doubleheader, the Reds
haven't scored a run. Bowman,
Warneke and Weiland, in relief
roles, shut them out in the last
seven innings of the opener. Then
Morton Cooper plastered a 4-hit
shutout on them in Tuesdays
nightcap.
Fiddler Bill MCGEE duplicated
Cooper'S performance with an
other 4-hit shutout yesterday,
beating Bucky Walters, top WIN
ner of the majors with 27 notches
on his pitching belt. Allowing only
one runner to reach third base,
MCGEE slapped the Reds down, 40,
for his 18th triumph against five
defeats. Walters gave up only sev-
en- hits in losing his 18th game,
but one of them was Terry Moore's
homer and three of them were
punched in one frame.
While the Reds are trying des-
perately to get the victory neces-
sary to clinch the flag, the Cubs
last years champs, are fighting
to salvage third place. They re-
gained the third spot yesterday
from the idle Dodgers by taking
two l07lnning battles from the
Pirates, 9-8 and 9-5.
Detroit reeled off its sixth
straight by making seven hits

State Senator Peter
Resigns as Head Of
County Democrats
Ill Health and Demands
Made Upon His Time
Force Action

BY Staff Correspondent of The Star.
ROCKVILLE, Md, March A.
State Senator Robert Peter has re-
signed as chairman of the united
Democratic organization, effective
after the adjournment of the State
Legislature early next month, it was
learned here today.
Senator Peter, who will retain his
post as Senator and continue to
take an active part in Democratic
politics in the county, said today
he planned to resign because of his
health and the demands the chair
manship made on his time, but
said he had no further statement
to make
1t was expected the Democratic
county congress would be called
about the middle of April to choose
his successor. Friends of the senior
member of the county delegation
said he had been considering the
matter for several weeks. Mr. Pc
ter has not been in the best of
health since last summer, and his
senatorial post made exacting de-
mandS on his time, they explained
Hampton's Name Mentioned.
Thomas E. Hampton, president
Of the Board of County Commission
ers, who has been active in party
q ffoirS in Tho RofbocIo J;etr;ot for
more than decade, is among those
mentioned as possible successor
to Chairman Peter.
Mr.. Hampton is certain to draw
support from the old Democratic Or
ganization and will be acceptable to
some in the former anti-organiza-
ton faction which merged with the
organization in the harmony move
ment of last July.
Another name to be considered,
however, is that of Delegate Charles
c. Jones of Kensington, head of the
county's delegation in the Legisla-
ture. He has been active in Demo-
cratic politics for many years and
was one of those instrumental in
consummating the harmony agree
ment two months before the Demo-
cratic primary last year.
First Dispute Settled.
Whether an open fight comes over
titular leadership of the county
Democratic organization will depend
on developments during the next
four weeks. The first controversy of
any proportion in the new Demo-
cratic organization setup occurred
over appointment of a chief of po-
lice, which was settled this week by
the appointment of Charles M.
Orme, former chief deputy sheriff,
a dark horse" who met with ap-
proval even from supporters of other
leading candidates.
The appointment of the IS new
officers to be authorized for the
county police force in a new law
may cause some dissension and have
a bearing on the Craftsmanship
election.
