The Petrolle-MeLarning match
will close the indoor season at
j the Garden—a season which was
none too profitable—and unless
one of the participants scores a
decisive victory, the Garden's ex-
pensive option for exclusive use
of the Polo Grounds and Yan-
kee Stadium may prove a white
elephant.
From a business standpoint,
a McLarnin victory would be
best for the Garden and Jimmy
already has been established as
an 8 to 5 favorite to defeat Pe-

ing gave the coast fighter the
worst drubbing of his career.
Unless McLaming can defeat
Petrolic and do It impressively,

CHICAGO, May 25.—Hack WK
son. major league home run lead-
er last season and one of the
highest paid players in the Na-
tional League, has been removed
from the Chicago Cuba line-up by
Manager Rogers Hornsby.
Batting only .266 as compared
to .356 a year ago, Wilson’s slump
has been one of the principal rea-
son* for the recent decline of ths
Cub*. During the recent Eastern
Invasion Hornsby considered tak-
ing Wilson out of the line-up, but
it was not until yesterday against
Pittsburgh that he actually bench-
ed the Cubs' outfielder.
, Hornsby would not say how
long he plahned to keep Wilson on
the bench, but it may be for sev-
eral days. Johnny Moore, Los
Angeles rookie, who is hatting
.230, has been shifted to Wilson's
former place in center field, with
Riggs Stephenson playing left
field, where Wilson has played a
few games recently.
The Cubs have dropped eight of
their last 10 games and today
were in fifth place with a per-
centage of .481. five and a half
games from the top.
The plight of the Cubs has not
thrown Manager Hprnshy into a
panic, but he has ordered morn-
ing practice at home and on the
road in trying to shake off the re
cent slump. Ragged pitching cost
the Cubs yesterday's game. Root,
Bush, May and Teachout perform-
ed poorly against the Pirates, giv-
ing up 15 hits ard nine base* on
1 ball*.
