Lengthy Contest Elimination at the hands ol Schott's Tavern of La Salle In a three-hour, thirteen Inning contest wa.s the fate of the last night in the first round ol Logan's annual tournament at Rock Island.

Two walks and a passed ball allowed the winning run to icore on a choice In the last of the thirteenth and gave the downstate ten a 9-8 victory. The contest was one of the mast thrilling ever offered in this section of the country with first one team and then the other taking short-lived leads. Four Pitchers Apiece Each club used four pitchers with Werts. on the mound for his appearance of the evening, being the winning hurler for Schott's. Little Roy Klnzer, whose wlldness led directly to hl.s downfall, was charged with" the Mutual defeat.

rjuthlt Western States, fourteen to thirteen, Three home runs featured the lengthy content. Irv Toelle blasted a four-base drive to center in the Innig to score Schlrmer and Guentherman ahead of him. In the eleventh Carl Ludolph. leadoff man. hit for the circuit to touch off a two-run rally that gave the Mutuals temporary working margin of two Gunla, La starting hurler, homered with one on base in the ninth to enable his club to tic I lie score at 6-6.

The tavern ten won In the thirteenth when Klnzer replaced Dawson on the slab for Western States. He passed both Plochocki and Werts to open the stanza and the runners moved up on a passed I ball as Gunia fanned. F. Plochicki hit deep to Carl Ludolph and L. Plochicki beat the Mutual third Backer's throw home with the winning counter.

Annawan CCC colored team and presumably Schott's of La Salle advanced to the semi-finals as the result of the first two nights of play at Rock Falls. The CCC club defeated both Princeton and Streator Tuesday and Schotl's had a 6-0 lead In the fourth over the La Salle Mohawks last night after winning from Western States.

Jimmy Dykes, the big cigar man and hero of Chicago's riddled White Sox, was mentioned. So was Will the Terrible Terry, whose Hubbell- less Giants, after yesterday's doubleheader split with the Pirates, now seem definitely out of the National league pennant race.

But nearly all hands were willing to admit that neither was the champ, that none was in the same i league with Cagy Casey Stengel in this respect, that no one pilot had a weaker lot to start with, ran Into more hospital trouble, and still was In there punching Dykes and his Sox. of course, were counted out last spring when Luke Appling broke a leg. Their best to date is the American league's sixth place, despite occasional flashes, like the four-hitter Johnny Whitehead pitched to top the Senators, 7-0. yesterday. Everyone knows Terry's troubles: Hubbeil's left arm on the shelf: Jo Jo Moore out for some time with an injured leg; Catcher Harry Canning sidelined with a kidney ailment, and Prince Hal Schumacher with a sore shoulder.

Still the Giants are in second place, al- i though 6 games back of the Pirates. The New Yorkers took the opener yesterday. 6-5. on a run in the ninth, but then the Bucs banged out 16 hits for a 12-3 nightcap win. Cubs and Reds -littery One of the larger reasons the Giants hang on however.

Is because the Chicago Cubs and Cincinnati I Rpds get as Jittery as a gal on her first date whenever they come within shouting distance. Yester, a the Cubs had another chance to climb into the runnerup spot, but istrad they fell apart in the ninth inning, lost to Stengel's Bees, 6-4. i and dropped to fourth place. This left the Bees two games over the .500 mark. In fifth place and i only 4'-I- games out of the first divi- The Reds trounced the Brooklyn Dodgers.

And Casey, to begin with, had a minus i i a i so far as power is concerned.

Then Gene Moore, one of the abler hitters, went out for the year with an ailing leg: Debs Garms. promising recruit, has been on the sidelines off and on: Stengel has had to shift three men around on first and third bases all year: Al Lopez.
