BERLIN, Sept Il German
army officer, writing in the War

their tongues, taking strange wom-

coming soft-hearted toward erst-

Although fighting with guns has
ceased in France, the French still
can fight with other weapons, the
officer warned. One of these is es-

REDS BLAST OUT
WIN OVER GIANTS
Junior Thompson Hurls Five
Hit Ball As Cincinnati
Triumphs, 9 To l

CINCINNATI, May 6-R-The
rampant Reds staged a seven-run
spree in the sixth inning today to
overwhelm the New York Giants
9 to l on the five-hit hurting OF
Gene Junior) Thompson.
The game served as the 1910 de-
but of Paul Dean, who pitched two
~scoreless innings in relief for the
Giants. The one-time St. Louis
Cardinal hero had an easy seventh
inning after supplanting Harry
Gumbert, but the Reds got two
singles and two long, hard flies in
the eighth.
Gumbert was the victim of all
the Cincinnati scoring, yielding a
run in the first and again in the
third, each time on three hits, and
then going to pieces in the sixth
during a five-hit bombardment
climaxed by Harry Crafts three
run homer.
The trouble started with two
singles and two walks, forcing in
a run and leaving the bases load
ed. Frank Mccormick singled two
more across and Ernie lombard
doubled another home. Then Craft
hit his round tripper.
The Giants only run was scored
on one hit in the third, urges get
ting a single, scampering to third
on a wild pitch and home on a
fly.

ST. LOUIS, May 6-LR-Those
indefatigable Brooklyn Dodgers
trounced the Cardinals 6 to 2 today
for their 18th victory in II starts
and showed St. Louis into a three
way tie for last place in the Ma
tional league.
In winning, the Dodgers demon
strated again their ability to come
from behind, because the Cards
counted both their run in the first
inning and chung doggedly to the
lead until the fifth.
The Dodgers threatened real
trouble as early as the second in
ming, when Cookie Lavagetto open
ed with a double and Dolph Camil-
Ii singled him home. However,
Curt Davis was able to snuff out
that spark and preserved his equili-
brium until the fifth. Then Roy

outs. He scored on a double by

Trailing the Taylor olquitt Creo-

runner on first, the umpires called
the game because Of darkness. The
game will be officially recorded as
a tied affair since the 1910 rules
clearly state that I'm the event a

Takes Over Loop
Lead By Beating Tribe
Foxx Leads Six-Run Assault
In Fourth With Home Run
As Red Sox Win, S-5

BOSTON,, May 6-R-Boston's
Red Sox put on a six-run barrage
in the fourth inning today and
scored an 8-5 triumph over the
Cleveland Indians and climbed
back into the leadership of the
American league.
Willis Hudlin, Jack HUMPHREYS
and Ken Jungels were victims of
the outbu7st in which Captain jim
my Foxx opened the hostilities
with a lofty homer into the center
field bleachers and closed the ses-
sion with a long fly to the outfield.
Emerson Dickman started on the
mound for the Sox and showed
plenty of stuff, although lacking
somewhat in control. He weather.
ed a stormy session in the fourth
when Cleveland scored twice on a
home run and two triples.
He was taken out in the sixth
after the first two batters singled.
Jack Wilson turned in a noble re-
lief effort, limiting the hard-hitting
Indians to two safe blows in the
last four innings.
Bill Zuber pitched the last three
innings for the Indians and held the
Sox to one hit and a single run.
After both Boston and Cleveland
scored single runs, the Indians cut
loose on Dickman, in the fourth,
with a burst of solid hitting. Ben
Chapman, first up, drove a home
run out of the park and Hal Trosky
and Jeff Heath tripled in success
sion before Dickman settled down
and retired the side.

No Longer Inferior
Right now there doesn't appear
to be much concern n way OF
the other by the southern grldlror
coaches. The idea might dwindle
out before then and even at thai
the football teams of the south are
beginning to lose that inferior feel
ing and feel that as a drawing
card they are needed about as
much up there as the Ivy leaguers
are needed down here.
Southern grid teams have bgeun
to draw. They have hit the up
grade and a game between Duke
and Clemson will draw as many
persons in the Old North State as
a tilt between the Blue Devils and
COLGATE, or some other such in
stitution.
But this little bit of sniping,
Quietly of course, makes things
look interesting. Who knows but
the Bonnie Blue Flag may wave
again.
Championship?
Maybe the mathematics got us
all balled up. We never were any
good at logarithms anyway. But
the pacard billing of the game be-
tween New Hanover High school
and Raleigh here tonight says in
plain lettering, Championship
Game"
We didn't know that. The figures
say that Wilson now leads the East
ern Class A league with Durham
in second place. Wilmington holds
third and Raleigh fourth place. 1t
looks like a little too much enthu-
siasm on the part of the local back
ers, or maybe the posters were
printed several weeks ago when
the Wildcats were atop the confer
enc ladder.
It's a little unfair to bill the game
as a championship affair when it
isn't and anyway that tag seems
hardly necessary for the game.
Wilmington and Raleigh always put
up a good scrap whenever they
meet and this looks like as good
a game as will head this way this
season.
