soon overcame an early lead of the
Mischief, to show his heels to the rest

ALEX MORRISON says:
A middle-aged pro wording
near New York City asked me to
help him straighten out his long
shots and if possible add some
, length to them. I watched his
old swing and didn’t see one
[ straight ball.
Most of the trouble came when
he allowed his hands to separate
at the end of his backswing. To
prevent this I suggested that in
terlocking grip, and keeping the
chin in place until well after im
pact. He took the grip and kept
his chin back, hitting every ball
straight and at least 25 yards
longer.
1 In spite of the fact that he had
! gained the much desired improve
ment, he gave up the grip after
about an hour's trial. It made
i me think of how he would scold a
1 pupil for not giving his instruc
• tions a fair trial.
‘ For years he had been putting
up with faults and because they
were not completely eliminated in
a matter of minutes he gave up.
Many a player has done the same

NEW YORK, July 17 (TP)—The
slugging first baseman of the Boston
Red Sox, Jimmy Foxx, today leads
the home run hitters of both major
leagues. While his teammates were
dividing a double-header with the St.
Louis Browns yesterday, Foxx
slammed out his 25th and 26th cir
cuit clouts of the season. St. Louis
won the first game by beating Lefty
Grove, 6 to 3. The Red Sox grabbed
the second by a 5 to 4 score.
The bespectacled hurler, Johnny
Broaca, pitched the New York Yan
kees to a 5 to 2 victory over the De
troit Tigers in another American
league game. Cleveland’s Indians
shut out the Philadelphia Athletics,
7 to 0, -nd the White Sor of Chicago
beat the Washington Senators, 9 to 7.
In the National league, the New
York Giants nosed out the Pittsburgh
Pirates, 7 to 6, and the fast traveling
Chicago Cubs took a close 1 to 0 game
from the Boston Bees. The St. Louis
Cards dropped further into second
place by losing to the Phillies 6 to
2. Brooklyn and Cincinnati were not
scheduled.
Only two games were played yes
terday in the Sally league because of
the Savannah-Jacksonville set-to being
rained out. The Columbus Red Birds
fell to with a vengeance yesterday in
their game with the Columbia Sena
tors when they shut out the second
division club 7-0. Merely a game which
fattened the batting average of the
Birds, the Senators didn’t have a
chance throughout the session. The
last game of the circuit found the
Augusta Tgers making up for their
past defeats at the hands of the
Peaches when they romped on two
ning, the Peaches were hopelessly in
Tiger hurlers 8-1. Never in the run
the ruck for the entire game.

TRIBE MOVES ON
TO HOME FIELD
OF SENATORS
TWO LAST POSITION CLUBS
TO BATTLE FOR CEL
LAR BERTH
The last game of their two game
series with the Jacksonville Tars be
ing rained out last night, the Tribe
took to the road this morning headed
for the stamping ground of the Col
umbia Senators. The series between
the Senators and Indians should
prove interesting as the two last place
clubs battle the games out for the
somewhat doubtful honor of being
ceHar holders for the Sally League
It is thought that the rest due to
the rain was a helpful aid to the In
dians. Having been working hard for
the last ten games, the Tribe was
sorely in need of a rest and yesterday’s
layoff, no doubt gave the pitching
staff a good chance to nurse their
arms. The Tribe will be back in Sa
vannah next Wednesday 'to renew
their home stand. The scarcity of
games on the home diamond in the
second half was a sore blow to the
fans who took in more than their
sual share during the first half of the
season. Unable to avoid the majority
of out-of-town games apparent for
the last half, the Indians will be on
the road for practically the rest of
the season.
Y. M. C.A. CONTESTS
BROUGHT TO CLOSE
WINNERS IN EACH CLASS
ARE TO BE GIVEN
EMBLEMS
Athletic contests in the boys division
of the Y. M. C. A. which have been
going on for some time were brought
to a close last week, with the finax
count of winners just being released.
In the midget class, the Comets,
with Billy Taylor at the helm, nosed
out the Stars, led by Johnny Polych
rones, by a close 344 to 343 count.
The prep class, styled the wild
animal league found the Wildcats
under Alvis Potter, ahead with 370
points and the Tigers, Harry Rauler
son captain, trailed with 324.
In the younger business boy’s class,
the Peanuts apparently headed for
the cellar in the opening rounds, forg
ed forward at the last to crack the
contest with 276 points, against 270
for second place, won by the Hickory
nuts, headed by Billy Davenport.
SHOP/ TALK—Helen Jacobs and Fred Perry, international tennis
/stars, talk over their game when they meet in London.
REALIZES THAT FANS ARE WISE TO
HIS UTTER LACK BALL KNOWLEDGE
AS TRIBE SINKS INTO SALLY CELLAR
A sadly dejected group of Savannah Indians took to the
road today headed for the home diamond of the Columbia Sena
tors. Down in the cellar position of the league, the fighting In
dians are proceeding with the rest of their present schedule with
but one thought in mind: That Bobby LaMotte is not the man
for the job of being a baseball manager for two reasons; first,
because of the fact that the strategy employed by thf erstwhile
manager wouldn’t even fit into the picture of a sandlot team,
and second, because of the fact that LaMotte has never been and
never will be a baseball manager.
Having lost all but five games in the second half, the Tribe
is firmly entrenched in the cellar position and from the way the
management of the club is taking steps to remedy the situation,
by the removing of LaMotte, the so-called manager, the Indians
are doomed for the last position for the rest of the season. The
former manager, Bill Gould, did win ball games, and though the
former boss-man of the Tribe never did get out of the second
division, he was able to keep the club either in fourth place or
better for the entire time that he held the reins of managership.
It doesn’t seem possible that the vociferous LaMotte would
have the nerve to try and manage a ball club with his scanty
knowledge of baseball technique. As he blunders through his
routine of limited baseball knowledge in the handling of the
Tribe it is pathetic to see how the ex-big leaguer shows he knows
so little about the managership end of the game. Always the last
out of the Indian dugout to protest a decision, and incidentally
the first back to the roost, LaMotte’s tactics would be better
suited to a boy’s camp instead of a Class B outfit. One time bub
bling over with all the enthusiasm of what he was going to do
with the locals, as he sits now and watches how the other man
agers in the league have outpaced him from the start, he fully
realizes the inadequacy of his knowledge of the national game.
It’s just a case of LaMotte being too small for the job.
NEWTON WINNER
IN WEEKLY SHOOT
Jce Newton again showed horn how
at the weekly skeet shoot of the
Forest City Gun Club, with a scoro
of 49 out of 50 birds which went un
challenged for first place. A perfect
score for the first twenty-five bird
assignment was marred by but one
miss on the second.
A score of 46 won for W. W. Stod
dard, consistent placer, second place
with no competition. E. J. Oliver turn
