and a heavy blow struck last night,
tore away the spinnacer of the As
foot Kanawha, skippered by Noyes

the boom of the little cutter.
The Contender's spinnacer was
torn down, but the crew managed
to have most of the canvas.

COOPERSTOWN, N. Y, July 10.
James Fenimore Cooper gave this
village on the shores of blue Otsego
Lake its initial build-up, but it's
beginning to look as though Gen.
Abner Doubleday will have to take
the credit for keeping it on the map.
The natives have known for years
they could count on the fame of
Cooper's Leather Stocking tales to
attract the n-of-the-mine tourist
trade. 1t wasn't, however, until they
began celebrating the Tooth anniver-
sary OF Doubleday's invention Of
baseball they discovered what the
general really had done for them.
They've been celebrating the CEN
tennial of and on for a couple of
months now, and they added to the
festivities yesterday with a ball
game in which Representatives of
Al minor leagues participated.
'Doubledays" Are Victors.
What with the crowds, the bands
and the speeches, it would have been
a colorful affair even if it hadn't
been for the red, white and blue
uniforms worn by the diamond he
roes
Just for the record, the Double
days." managed by Mike Kelley,
president of the Minneapolis club
OF the American Association, won
the game by score of 81.
The opposition, master minded by
Spencer abbott, now pilot of the
Springfield club of the Eastern
League, lined up under the name
of the "Cartwrights," in honor of
Alexander Joy Cartwright, who pop
ularly is credited with having or
ganized the first honest-to-goodness
baseball club.
Plaque HOn0rs Founders.
Before the game, Judge w. G.
Branham, president of the National
Association of Professional Baseball
Leagues, presented to the National
Museum a plaque in memory Of
the seven men who founded the
association back in 1901.
The only two living founders

cation, along with Judge Kenesaw

OF to a laundering start amid q
shower of extra base hits, leaders In
A section, National City League, to-
day are worrying about new
menace as Reads Pharmacy sound
ed shrill warning that it must be
reckoned with in the disposition of
Second-half honors. The Pharm-
acists' sudden return to form ex-
pands the erstwhile three-team
struggle into a four-way argument
and augers well for one of the most
exciting pennant races witnessed In
recent years on the sandlots.
With Joe Crisafuli, former Uni
versity of Maryland star, and Wes
Talyor leading the assault, Reads
spanked an improved Frank Small
Motors nine, 1876, in registering one
of the most important victories of
the day. The losers culled the Of
ferings of Beckett and Kingman for
IS hits, but couldn't cannect with
men on base, while Reads took ad-
vantage of all scoring opportunities
Klein's, ID. G. S., Flood Triumph.
Meanwhile Klein's Tavern, first
half champion; D. G. S., runner-up
for the crown. and j. c. Flood, con-
sidered by many Klein's most dan
gerous rival, all came through with
smashing victories. Kleins wal
loped Tex Tavern, 14-2, as Roche,
Fones and Scott led the stickwork,
while Liggett held the losers to eight
scattered bingles. Six runs in the
sixth inning decided the issue.
Flood hung up a new scoring rec
ord for the season by wringing 26
hits and a 30-2 victory out of the
hapless Retail Clerks. The victors
chased runners over the plate in
every inning, climaxing their per-.
formance with a 13-run assault in
the sixth, which drained the last bit
of hope from the weary Clerks
frames. Eddie Vermillion, former
Roosevelt hurler, made an auspicious
debut with the victorS holding the
Clerks to three hits.
District Grocery Stores came from
behind to whip a rejuvenated Cameo
Furniture team, 8-4, sealing its vic.
tory with two runs in the ninth.
AlexanderS three hits topped the
attack, while Pembroke, although
touched for nine hits, was tight in
the pinches.
Artillery Nine Pressed.
Gilly Steele's section B f1rst-half
champion Service Battery team had
its collective hands full with Chill
lum Heights, an added starter in
the second-half race, and needed
two runs in the sixth to pull the
Sd game out of the fire. Steele
held Chillum to four hits, but Eddie
Robertson's men made them count
in the scoring. Peck gave up only
seven hits for the Heightsmen, but
errors at inopportune moments hurt
the cause.
Frank Cinotti's Wade's Auto Serv-
ice team won nip and tuck affair
from De Molay, Al, as Thompson
turned back the losers with four
hits. Pepco Barry, Johnny Cinotti
and Lenny Roberts led the hitting,
getting two each. Wade's is the
dark horse of the second half series.
Arcade Market staged a 6-run
rally IN the last inning of its game
with Arcade Pontiac, but fell run
short of overtaking its arch-rival
as the latter scored an 81 victory.

Yankees Make A. L. Club
Dream Come Choice
BY GRANTLAND RICE,
Special Correspondent Of The Star


NEW YORK, July 10 (N.A.NAJ.-
Win, lose or tie at the Yankee Sta
dium tomorrow, the American
League has come up to the Au-Star
game once more with the stronger
team. 1t has accomplished this, as
usual, by loading its team with
Yankees There is a Yankee for
every position on the team save
first base. and one outfield post
There even is Yankee captain, a
Yankee batting practice catcher, q
Yankee coach and, very important,
a Yankee manager-Joe Mccarthy
having assumed command when ILL
ness made it impossible for Connie
Mack to serve.
Thus, while the suggestion, ad-
vanced by some one not so long ago
that the All-Star game be made q
test between the National League
and the Yankees isn't exactly
feasible, the American League
strikes as close to it as possible. In
four of the six years the games have
been played the Yankees won 1t for
the American League. In one of the
years the American League lost, the
Yankees managed that, too.
No Woy to Eliminate
Greet Yonkee Arroy
The preponderance of Yankees
every year may not be flattering
to the rest of the league. But there
isn't anything that can be done
about it-not so long as the Yankees
continue to have players like Joe
Di Maggie, Joe Gordon, Twinkletoes
Selkirk, Frank Crosetti, Red Rolfe
Bill Dickey, Charley Rufhng, Vernon
Gomez and Johnny Murphy.
With that array-plus Jimmy
Foxx, Hank Greenberg, George Nc
Quinn, Joe Cronin, Luke Appling
Roger Cramer. Myril Hoag, Frank
Hayes and Rollie Hemsley-the
American League again will muster
powerful attack against the pitch
ing of Paul Derringer, Bucky Wal
ters, Johnny Wander Nicer, Whitlow
Wyatt and Lou Fette, who will carry
the defensive burden for the Ma
tional.
That kind of attack can be
stopped, of course. 1t was stopped
last year. But on paper it tops the
National League offensive, although
with Mel OFT, Joe edHick, Morris
Arnovich, Johnny Mize, Frank Nc
Cormick, Ernie lombard, Billy
Herman and Babe Phelps in there
swinging for the old league there will
be no weakness at the plate.
American League Has Edge
On Pitching Hill, Too
The American League has the edge
as nearly as anybody can figure
1t in advance-in pitching, too. For
supplementing the Yankee sharp
shooters will be Tommy Bridges, Bob
Feller, Buck Newsom, Lefty Grove
and Ted Lyons.
All this doesn't mean the Ameri-
can League will win. 1t should-bht
on paper, it should have won last
year and in 1886, and in each of the
losing years broad crack developed
in the defense and the National
crashed through to win.
Each All-Star game brings its
promise OF new thrills. This year
Arnovich enters the combat as the
National Leagues leading hitter and
Bob Feller moves up to it at a new
peak in his form. Wyatt and Fette
achieve it after years of toll in the
minor leagues during which they
must have felt they never would see
1t except from seats in the grand
stand. And Ted Lyons makes it at
last in the twilight of a career
stretching back through 1s years in
