and Wins His Own Game. PITTSBURG, May 7. Rain and a recruit Pittsburg pitcher, especially the recruit, beat the Cardinals here today and gave the league leaders their third straight from the Cardinals and their ninth consecutive victory. Not counting the delay caused by some heavy showers play bting called for a half hour during the last half of the seventh it was a real ball game as the final score, 2 1, attests. The Cardinals' one and only run came in the second when, with one out Jack Fournier lifted the ball into the right field seats.

The hit, at Sportsman's Park, would easily have cleared the bleachers in right. Thereafter, Glazner allowed but two hits the remaining seven sessions. Fournier's homer put the Cardinals in the lead, until the last of the third when Bigbee singled with one down. He stole second, aided by a 'ery poo. throw by Dillhoefer.

Carey fanned, but Maranville came through with a single and the score was tied. Glazncr's Hit Ueohlcs Game. Bill Sherdel was working for the Rickeyrnen and he pitched very creditably. In the last half of the seventh, with the rain pouring down. Bill threw out Schmidt, the first man up.

Glazner, the pitcher, had proved the easiest of victims on two previous occasions and Sherdel grooved one. Glazner connected solidly and -the baJl-whizzed to deep right for a triple. Sherdel then pitched two wide ones to Bigbee and the umpires called time, so hard was the rainfall. After Nthe customary wait, play was resumed and, on the first ball pitched, Bigbee rolled a sin gle to right, which scored Glazner. When Carey singled to left and put Bigbee on third, things looked even darker than the weather.

Maranville was purposely walked, filling the bases and the strategy worked well, though the. damage had been none by Glazner's 'ong hit. Cut-shaw hit to Stock and Bigbee was out at the p'ate. Then Mokane flied to Fournier. Cardinals Finish VVenkly.

The rain commenced again soon after play was resumed, but the umpires refused to call time. The last two innings, as it proved, were entirely unnecessary as not a Cardinal player reached first on Glazner in the eighth or ninth. Glazner fanned six Cardinals and he permitted but' four hits, all singles except Fournier's homer. Sherdel gave nine hits, including a double by Carey and triples by Glazffer and Tierney. Despite the soggy condition of the field, both teams played a great fielding game, the only misplay being a wide throw to first by Glazner to catch Fournier napping In the seventh.

Fournier was the only Cardinal to get two hits. Lavan and Hornsby each got one. The Cardinals play a one-day stand in Chicago tomorrow with the Cubs after which they depart for New York, opening there for a four-game series with the Giants. Poplar Bluff Wins Meet. CAPE Mo.

May 7. Princeton's varsity eight-oared crew upset all predictions today by defeating the Olympic champion Navy eiRht over the-'mile and seven-eighths course on Lage Carnegie by one-third of a length. Hnrvard, the other starter in the triangular regatta, finished a poor third, six boat lengths behind. The time of the winninsr crew, 9m. while not exceptionally fast for the distance, was considered good in view- of the rowing conditions.

Harvard and Princeton divided honors in the other two races on the day's program, the Crimson winning the freshman race by two and one-half lengths and the Tiers, the Junior varsity by six lengths. The varsity race was one of the most sensational ever seen on the placid waters of Lake Carnegie. The crimson crew shot into the lead at the starter's signal with Princeton and Navy following in the order named. Harvard, however, could hold the coveted position for only a brief period. 200 yards from the start Princeton and the Navy started to close the quarter length gap and before the half-mile post was reached they started to pull away from the crimson oarsmen.

From that point to the finish it was a gruellinsr race between Princeton and Navy, Harvard gradually droppine further hack. Princeton Bow. Hush. Fleming. Milne.

1 SPIKED BASEBALLS ARE DISCOVERED MOBILK. May 7. Spiked baseballs have been discovered at the Mobile Southern Association Park, according to President John D. Logan, who has taken the matter with President John D. Martin, at Memphis, nnd National Commissioner Land is at Chicago.

The balls were found after the Mobile-Little Ttock game, Friday, but the discovery of nails driven into them was not made until today. Th nail in each instance is a small, long wire one, dtlven into the stitches, and the ball had to be examined closely to find it. It is claimed that the added weight of the nail on one side enabled a pitcher to make the ball do all sorts'of funny things. The Mfile players claim that they did not put the balls into play and how they got into the game is yet to be determined. President Logan stated tonight he would demand a full Investigation.

While Bayne yielded four raps, only two of them were real swats, the other pair being of the infield variety. Veach was credited with a hit in the fourth, when he sent a nasty bounder to Sisler.

Heilmann punched out a homer in the sixth, his second in two days. Jones received a hit on a tap to Bayne, while Bush sent a clean ace to center in the seventh. Bayncs WHdness Aids Timers. Wildness kept the left hander in hot water a- great deal of the time. He "dead headed" seven batters during the fray and it was this lack pf control In the sixth round that enabled the men of Cobb to score their only runs of the slash.

The kith-ogue passed two men in the first; one in the second; two in the sixth, and another pair in the seventh. George Sisler, the Browns' chief slugger, who came out of a hitting Flump Friday, when he pounded out four raps, came back yetserday with four more, and was driven across four times, Sisler is now hitting .342. Kenneth Williams also Starred. Ken drove out four hits. He drove In three tallies and scored a pair himself.

After failing to score in the first, although putting three men on the paths, thj Browns went into the lead in the third. Gerber singled for a starter. He was forced by Sisler. Williams followed with a hit and Jacobson drove in Sis with a double. On Gleason's tap, Williams was cut down at the plate, while McManus forced Gleason.

Sisler Starts It Again. Two runs came in the fifth. Sisler opened with a double and scored when Williams pounded a hit to left. Jacobson also singled, but Gleason fouled to Blue. McManus' swat counted Williams, but Billings and Bayne went out.

Bayne's inability to" find the plate gave the Tigers a chance and they tied in the sixth. Bush walked, but Cobb filed out. Veach also walked and then Heilmann pounded one Into the right field seats. The locals unknotted it in their portion of the round. After two bathers had been retired, Sisler poled a single to center.

Williams hit the first pitched ball into the right field bleachers, scoring behind Sis. Williams' poke was one of the highest ever seen at Sportsman's Park. The final run came in the eighth, when Sisler singled, went to third on Williams' hit and scored on Jacobson' sacrifice fly to Heilmann. Brownies Star in Field. Fohl's men played a great fielding game behind Bayne.

In" the fourth he was saved by a sensational double play. With Veach on third and Jones on first, Blue hit a nasty bounder down the first base line. Sisler scooped up the ball, fired to Gerber getting Jones and then got back to first In time to take Gerber's high return with his gloved hand. Again In the seventh a twin-killing saved Bayne. With three on, Veach hoisted to Tobin.

Bush started for the plate and then decided to go back to third. However, he was caught in a runup and finally run down, Tobin to Billings to McManus to Billings to Gerber. Marty McManus was at third base for Fohl for the first time this season and did all that was expected besides pounding out a hit that drove in a run. The fourth game of the series with the Tigers will be played this afternoon. Either Allan Sothoron or Dixie Davis for the Browns, with Carl Holling a possibility for the Tigers.

Play at 3 o'clock. BROWNS SIGN BOLAND, RELEASED BY TIGERS Bernie Boland. the righthander, who some time ago was unconditionally released by the Tigers, yesterday was signed by the Urowns and Is now a full-fledged member of the Fohl Tribe. He is expected to prove an aid to Fohl's staff, although he has done little with the Tigers in the past two seasons. AUSTIN OUT OF GAME WITH FRACTURED ARM Jimmy Austin the Browns' veteran third sacker, suffered a fractured right arm, when he was hit by a jpitched ball delivered by Howard F.hmke In Friday's game between the Browns and Tigers.

This was disclosed by an X-ray photo taken yesterday. The injury will keep Austin on the shelf for some time. Blue Jays Play Murphysboro.
