..4 0 2 0 Cuallara 0 0 0 0 BY JAMES CRUSINBERRY. Another display of their worlds championship punch gave the White Sox another victory over the league leading Red Sox yesterday, 7 to 2. Two vicious attacks. one In the third and one in the fourth Inning, carried the Sox to their objective for the day without a single casualty. The enemy suffered severe losses, being pocketed and helpless from the fourth round to the finish.

All their gains were made before the White Sox knew that Secretary Baker had ruled to let them continue in their nonessential and nonproductive occupations until Sept. 1. After learning the decision the Sox let up in their attack and dug themselves In for future engagements. Eddie Motto Shines. Superlative pitching by the veteran shine ball expert, Eddie Cicotte, along with concentrated batting by Ms mates, made it an easy matter to trim the headliners for the second straight time.

Eddie was opposed by Sam Jones, but Sam had sufficient alter four Innings and gave his place to a youngster named Kinney. who stopped further advances. The Red Sox began the combat as If In a mood to annihilate Mr. Cicotte. harry Hooper opened the game with a triples but he was left stranded at third base when his mates were helpless.

In the second round McInnis led off with a perfect bunt for a single. Scott pushed him along to second and Stansbury poled him home with a triple, but Agnew lifted to J. Collins, wilo nailed Stansbury at the plate vvr2e a he attempted to score. From tfx a on the Red Sox were tame. Story of Big Sox Push.

The big Sox drive was in the third. McMullin beginning it with a single. In a Siffy Schalk had singled Clcotte had walked. filling the bases. When Murphy forced anotte at second McMullin counted, and after Lie-bold had popped out E.

Collins walked, filling the sacks again. In this pinch Chick Gandil lined out a single that drove Schalk and Murphy home. while Eddie C. raced to third. He and Chick next executed a double steal, and then John Collins Mired a single, sending Chick home with the fifth run of the cluster.

Singles by McMullin and Motto, followed by a three base drive by Liebold, produced the other two tallies in the fourth. while the Red Sox dribbled In with one In the eighth on a triple by Recruit Gonzales, followed by a single by Stansbury.

It was announced at the Sox office that five players all told have been procured from the Pacific, coast.

The other three will be announced later. Outfielder Wolfer, recently purchased from Vancouver, will not report this year. BY I. E. SANBORN.

Philadelphia, July Dodo Paskert, pinch third sEtcker, came within a foot of yanking the Cubs out of a costly defeat in the ninth Inning of the final game of the series here, but 'Fitzgerald went against the right field wall and robbed Dode of a drive that would at least have tied up the count Final score, 3 to 2. Mann was on second in that last round with two men gone. Paskert soaked a. liner out over right where Fitzgerald was subbing for Cravath and had been having all kinds of trouble with the sun and wind. Nobody expected him to get anywhere near the poke, but he crossed the whole works by a brilliant and daring catch, literally picking the pill off the barrier and crashing into it himself.

Cub Offense Lacks Power. That was a stirring finish to an extremely lazy pastime, in which the Cubs tried in vain to connect successftilly with the teasers Jacobs banded them. All they could get with the help of a bunch of Phi Ily errors and four bases on balls was two tallies and one of these was forced home. George Tyler came back from the farm to pitch the game, and after a week of pitching fodder to the cows, found his control a bit shy. He walked four men, and two of the passes were converted into runs, the third Phi ily tally being made on a wild chuck by Hollocher.

It was a tough day for shortstops, as Bancroft was away off In fielding. He made numerous wild and Luderus saved him several by spectacular stabs. Mils First to Score. The Morena cracked the Cub defense I first in the opener. Fitzgerald walked, made seconA on Bancroft's out, went to third on a wild pitch, and registered on Stock's single.

The Cubs evened things up In the second with a lot of assistance. Ban. croft gave Barber a life with one out by a fumble. Zeider sent him to third with a single to right Ki Hafer bit to Bancroft, who had Barber on third, then threw wild trying to force Zeider at second. That filled the-works with one gone.

Tyler looked at a third strike, but Flack worked Jacobs for a pass, forcing in a run. IIollocher also let a third strike go by. Cubs Dissipate Their Chances. IIollocher's boot, a steal, and a single gave the Phil lies their second run In the third. The Cubs ought to have cinched the game in the fifth.

Hollocher, first up, lived on a wild throw by Bancroft. Mann beat out a bunt. Jerk le tried to sacrifice, but popped out Paskert also fouled out. Barber walked, filling the bags, and Zeider rolled out. In their fifth the Phi Mies scored the Nierkle tried to sacrifice, but popped out.

As grounds for this request It Is It' Ileged that there are but 237 persons affected by the so-called work or fight order, but that. In spite of this small number, their taking would lead to the immediate breaking up of the entire game. "It is further said that the notice in too short to allow the leagues to adapt themselves to the ruling, and that the failure of the clubs to adapt themselves to the ruling is due to the fact that the secretary of war caused it to be known through the newspapers that the question of the application of the order to baseball players would not te decided until an actual case arose. Gen. Crowder's A hearing has been had on this subject by the provost marshal gen'eral, who rftports to me that It Is not clear to him that the game will have to be discontinued, even if the order is made immediately applicable.

"The purpose of the work or fight order, so far as the war department is concerned, is to strengthen the military forces of the country, and not to control the labor situation. Incidentals iv, it will undoubtedly have the effeet of adding to the number of persons usefully employed and decreasing the number of persons uselessly.employed. In this way the order will strengthen the military forces by rnaldng It less necessary to exempt for Industrial reasons men who would otherwise be taken into the military service. Against Excepting Ball Players. This is an indirect result, but one of very great importance.

and if exceptions are made or postponements are to be made in the enforcement of this order It will require a very careful 1 study to determine whether those ex-1 captions ought to be the persons In hose behalf this petition is filed or some other group out of the large number affected by the order, many a whom already have complied with It and brought about a readjustment of the trades and occupations which they had previously followed. "I think it would be an unfortunate thing to have so wholesome a recreation as baseball destroyed, If It can be continued by the use of persons not f.vallable for essential war service. Other Workers Already Affected. "But it would be a' much more unfortunate thing to preserve even so wholesome an amusement by making eat exception in favor of baseball players which is denied to great classes of persons in the -United States whose oocupations have been held similarly nonessential, although they are immeeiiately gssociated with the distribution of food and other processes of our daily life more fundamental than any mere tmusement It' does happen that baseball Is roore integrated than any other occuDation In our country, at least In the fosse that its successful conduct detsntis upon the preservation of all the teams scattered throughfrit the country, while In most occupations the work or fight order has InerelY a series of local and more or 1 Itess personal effects. Question of Fairness.

I am impressed, too. by the reprorentation made that the baseball playErs may have been put in a less attitude by reason of their resanee on my statement that the questlorf of their inclusion in the terms ti the order would not be decided until case had arisen. For these reasons it seems to me entirely proper and fair to extend the time during which the readjustment can take place, merely In order that justice may be done to the persons invoived. and I do, therefore, direct that tte application of the order be made to (late front Sept. 1.

The Sox bose predicted that yesterday soon after hearing that Secretary Baker had set Sept. 1 sts the date for ball players to fight pr go to work. "I am pleased with Secretary Baker's ruling." said Comiskey. We will now have time to close up our business and at the same time finish a pennant fight Also it will furnish a chance for some one to try the plan of using players outside the draft age. I think there will be a world's series of some kind and think there should be to furnish incentive to the players clear to the end.

I suppose the national commission will take that matter up at once." Crowder to Probe President Comiskey received a letter yesterday from the national commission asking him to inform all his players that jumping organized baseball to play with ship yards and munition plant teams would not protect them from their military obligations. The' commission stated that in one of the conferences with Provost Marshal General Crowder last week. the latter had stamped his disapproval of- such action when he learned that certain players had jumped. The letter stated that Gen. Crowder declared be would investigate cases of those who already had jumped and that he would not promise protection to them or any others who jumped clearly for the purpose of playing ball with corporation teams.

It la supposed that cases where players actually' are working for regula. tion wages, will meet with his approval, but where players are doing nothing but playing ball and evading OS work or fight order by being identified with productive and essential Institutions, indications are they may be placed in the fighting class at once. GABBY EXPECTS WORLD SERIES. Cincinnati. 0" July Garry Herrmann tonight said no 1 arrangements had been made to play a world series, but that be did not believe any trouble would be encountered in playing off a short series by two clubs immediarely at the conclusion of the league season.

No plans have been worked out as to how many I games will be played before September. It is quite likely the two leagues will agree on the number of games each team is to play between now and closing time. Ban Johnson and Herrmann each said that matter had not come up. but likely will be held within a few days. 'Urge Leagues' Joint Meeting; New York, July satisfaction at Secretary Baker's action in exempting ball players from the work- or fight" edict until Sept.

1, baseball officials in this city turned immediately to the question of whether the world's series should be held, and, It so, when.
