rorless ball while the Exporters
were credited with three errors. The

three bits. The Exporters got back
two of those runs in the last half
ad the first.

tal te five by putting over one in
the fifth. The home team kept
plugging awny at Hodge’s slants
and succeeded in scoring one each

nings. In the meantime, however,
the Spudders scored one la the
sixth.
With the score 6 to 5 in favor
of the west Texans, Beaumont

Will Rajah ox Rap Win Honors Again?
By NBA Service.
ST. LOUIS, Aug. T.—Will Rogers
Hornsby, the Rajah of Rap, make it
seven straight batting champion,
ships thla season?
That’s what the boys around the
corner are discussing as the final
half of the campaign gets under
way. The answer runneth both
ways: some believe the King of
Clubs will put on a desperate spurt
that will carry him to the heights
again while others think he haa toe
much ground to make up ta the
few weeks remaining to put the
font over. «
How has Hornsby’s work for the
first and second halves of other
years compared?
Well, la 1924 Rog hit ,893 over
the initial 11 frays, and then went
on to bat .55 the last half, giving
him the modern day record of .414.
Last year ta the first half Horns-
by turned in a mark of .414, wind-
ing up with a .441. It showed a fall-
lag eff of 11 potato in the last two
and a half months of play.
Hence one season he went on a
veritable rampage down the stretch
while In the other he faltered a
ML All of which makes his case
harder to dope.
This season Hornsby’s average
through the first half was but .144.
a decline of 14 potato compared
with a year ago. More than that
the midway mark found Rogers
close to 50 points behind the lead-
ers. ’
NS
Whether the clouter of the Car-
dinals can overcome such a big ad-
vantage remains to be seen. It he
does he’ll have to put on a spurt
similar to the one ho staged two
years ago.

FIGHTING INDIANS GO DOWN
BEFORE YANKEE FOR LOSING
TWO OF THREE GAME SERIES
(By the Associated Press.)
Trim Speaker’s fightlag Indians,
seeking world baseball honors after
six years, have gone down before
their greatest foes of 1926, the New
York Yankees.
That series, regarded as Im-
portant, in that it was An opportu-
nity for Cleveland to cut down tho
impressive lead gained by the men
of Huggins, ended in a New York
conquest, two games to one. Yes-
terday’s score was Yankees 8. In-
dians T. The result of n slugfest in
which the winners were outhit, but
piled up an early lead with four
nine in the opening inning. Out-
■tending in thin closing bottle of the
series were the efforts of Babe Ruth
of New York and Ohorge Burna of
Cleveland, hitters of different types,
to make gains la the departments
of play at which they excel. Ruth
drove out hle 35th home run of the
year, while Burns added three

Boetos outslugged ths Chicago
White Spy, but lost out, 1 to 4, with
connaurdor Chleage keeping the

die Collins led his team’s offensive
with a triple and two singles.
Pittsburgh gained a full game in
the National League race by turning
back Boston, 4 to 4, while Cincinnati
again tumbled before the Giants, S
to 4. The Pittsburgh victory was
costly in that the great young
shortstop, Glenn Wright, suffered
an injured right leg while sliding
into second base on his double in
the seventh. Wright to expected to
be out for only a few days, however.
Jimmy Ring stopped the Reds aft-
er Hugh MeQullian had been

CANDY MEN OF TEXAS
FIGHT NEW R. R. RATES
DALLAS, Aug. S. (—Suspension
of recently pooled freight rates
which are alleged to threaten the
existence of the candy industry in
Texas te asked In a petition filed
today with the Interstate Com erce
Commission by Frank Leffingwell,
attorney for the Texas Industrial
Traffic League, la the name of the
league and the Texas Candy Club.
The new rates, for instance, would
allow ths shipping of candy from
St. Lente to El Paso for $1.50,
whereas the rate from Dallas to El
Paso under the present tariff to
$1,538. The shipping of candy from
Chicago, New York and other east-
• rn points to western cities with a
ooet IsM than from Tesas points to
alM possible under the rates. The
new rates are effective August 21.
The railroads have been author-
ized by congress to carry any total-
ly blind-person, accompanied by a
guide, at the fare charged for one
person, under such reasonable reg-
ulations aa may have been estab-
lished by the carrier.
’. Old Neptune after numerous
refusals, including Miss Ederle
herself, at last has lifted hla
three pronged spear end permit-
ted a woman to swim across tho
turbulent waterway dividing Eag-
land from France. And as it la a
most deferential mood he accorded
the former American and Olympic
champion such generally favorable
conditions that she accomplished It
in shorter time than any of the
five men who were able to make the
arduous journey from 1872 to 1923.
Starting from Cape Gris Nez: at
7:09 o'clock under splendid weather
and tidal conditions, ths New York
girl churned the waters of the
channel almost continuously with
her strong overhand stroke and
the crawi-kiek that brought her
fame as amateur natator, until
9:40 o’clock Friday evening.
When she touched bottom at
Kingsdown, between Dover and
Deel, and walked happly ashore
with her new record of 14 hours, 11
minutes for the swim, and wan
pleased with her achievement “I
am a proud woman," she declared
simply.
Notwithstanding the long time
she had been to the water Miss
Ederle required no assistance when
she landed.
Gertrude Ederle is the sixth per-
son to swim the channel. The five
others were men. Her time of 14
hours, 11 minutes bettered that of
any of the male swimmers. Tira-
bocchi, the Italian, previously held
the record of 14 hours, 28 minutes
la covering an estimated distance
as he was carried hither and thither
by the tided of 11 miles. Charles
Toth was next with 14 hours, 54
minutes in swimming 28 miles.
Captain Matthew Webb of Eng-
laad, who te 1876 was the first maa
to cross the channel, swimming
from Dover Sands, England, to
Sangatte, France, was In the water
approximately 39 miles. Henry
Sullivan of Vowell, Mass., required
27 hours and 11 minutes in crossing
from Dover to Cape Orta Nee. He
had to swim 46 miles.
Thomas W. Burgess of London,
who was Miss. Ederle’s mentor In
her victory over the channel, is the
other man who was successful in
negotiating the rough and cold
waters of the channel. He swam
for 22 hours and M minutes and It
is estimated ha covered a distance
of 35 miles.
DOVER, England, Aug. 7. (—
Gertrude Ederle bounced out of bed
at 11:30 o’clock thla morning, de-
elaring she was ready for another
She showed M traces of the ter.
rible strain of yesterday’s ordeal
when she battled the treacherous
currents of the English channel for
14 hours and 11 minutes, crossing
from France to England in record
time and becoming the first of her
Ms to perform that feat.
The New York girl was full of
pep and In grant humor when she
arose and proceeded immediately to
get reedy to catch the afternoon
boat from Folkestone to Boulogne
where training quarters were es-
tablished.
Asked to My something regarding
her experience Miss Ederle replied:
“All I can say to that when I etart-
ed off I was determined te stay until
I had planted my feet on the English
shore and I am glad to My I did. 1
feel proud. Indeed, and so would you
if you were receiving all these let-
ters. telegrams and cables of con-
gratulation."
Miss Ederle was in the water
again off Dover Beach a abort time
after arising. She explained that
she never could face 4 day without
a awim and was sure she could
swim bach to Boulogne today if she
tried.
"The great point In my swimming
at all,” she said, "was to show that
a girl could do it, that an American
girl could do it, and that I was the
American girl."
crowd of 3,500 fans, the Dallas
Steers and San Antonio Bears met
Friday la another of their crucial
series, and th. Steers were return-
ed victors, 4 t. •, largely as a re-
suit of Tink Riviere's fine pitching
and the timely hitting of Woeber
and Morse. The game was Riviere's
fifth victory over San Antonio.
Starting th. scoring early, Dallas
ran la two runs in th. second in-
■IM when Miller singled, Woeber

At Beaumont, the Exporters and
Wichita Falla Spudders fought 11

hitting and wrangling on the part
of players featured a long game.
Between them the two teams col-
leeted a total of 85 hita. Wichita
Fall, getting 18 and Beaumont 17.
Turgeon, Jenkins, Metzler and De-
fate of Wichita Fall, and Connally
and Hansen, of Beaumont were
credited with three hita each. The
Beaumont infield wee guilty of
three errors, while Wichita Falls
played faultless baseball, but the
Exporters handled an unusually
large number of chances, Connally
at second base getting five assists
allowed Kane to go to third, whence
he scored on Kearns' sacrifice tlv.
Fort Worth started the scoring
in the first inning by counting
twice, but in their half of the same
Inning, the Buffs got one tally, and
In the third two more, and until
the seventh inning held their lead
over the Cats. In the seventh, how.
ever, Konetchy and Smith ef Fort
Worth hit homers tying the score
and driving Ray Pipkin to the
showers. Pipkin was succeeded by
Littlejohn.

getting two doubles and a single
and Konetchy excelled at hat for
Fort Worth with a single, a double
and a homer.-

suit of Distel's homer in the first
inning on the third ball pitched and

courtroom in the morning, pleks up
the receiver of his telephone and
keeps the line buoy trying hie cases
over the phone. Several criminals T
have decided to do away with tele-
phone service, to save $4 a month
and their own necks.
Covered lawn tennis courts or
regulation size are to be found on
each of the six floors of an apart-
ment building just completed in
Paris, near the Invalides.
