Despite the layoff, the Macks profited to the extent of gaining a half-game oa the Washington Senators as the latter waa takes ever the Jumps by the Chicago White Sox by a count of 4-3. The Macks bow enjoy a game and a halt lead aver, the Senators.

The Phillies again waded Into the Pittsburgh Pirates at Baker Bowl, clouting the offerings of two Bue twirlers for a total of hits to scamper away with a 13-1 decision. Although the Athletics got a break in gaining a respite while at the same time the Senators dropped a game, the world's champions suffered a severs blow whea it waa learned that George "Mule" Haas would be lost to the club for at least two weeks. Aa X-ray examinatloa last night showed that Haaa had sustained a chipped bone in his left thumb as the result of a play in the first inning of the second game la St. Louia on Thursday. Freak Play Castes lajary The injury developed as the result of a freak accident.

Schulte drove a liner to short centre and Haas rushed in and caught the ball, but in so doing stepped on Schulte'a glove, which waa lying oa the Held. The unusual footing caused Haas to lose sight of the ball for a split second, and while he closed his hands oa it, he jammed bis thumb while making the catch. At the time he felt no paia and finished out the game. During the night, however, the thumb begaa to swell and pain Haaa and Trainer Ebllng ordered aa X-ray examination. Manager Mack today will use Simmons in centre and put Jim Moore in left.

Doe Cramer, who also broke a thumb nearly a month ago, is now speeding to Detroit, having recovered from bis injuries, and be may alternate with Moore in left. The accident to Haas cast gloom among the world' a champions, coming at a time when the team was steeling itself to make a good showing against Detroit and Cleveland to regain some of the ground lost in St. Louis. Grove to Werk Tedsy Robert Mosea Grove will try to pitch the Mackmea back into ning ways today. Ha Is the only winner on the present disastrous trip.

The club is in one of the most severe batting alumps the A's have encountered aince becoming world's champions. Only Haas and littls Max Bishop have been doing any hitting on the second Western trip. In the Chicago and St. Louis series Haas socked the pill safely 19 times out of 3 times at bat for an aver- A1T7 In ha. Mm n.n1 His.

shop released IS hits out of 3 times at bat for a percentage of .410. Everybody else has slumped. Simmons batted hard in the first three games in Chicago, but since last Sunday hits have been scarce with him, and he produced only six blows In his last six games, which is far below the 8immons standard. As for Foxx, the tour has been his aero hour. The much-dreaded broad-back is in the worst slump he has had since he became a regular.

In nine games out West on this trip, Jimmy has made only six safeties. Even the few hits he contributed were never better than doubles. Up to date Foxx has not belted a home run since June 8 at Shibe Park, when he socked his thirteenth of the year. For 18 days he has bees nomerieas. Watt Wins' Second BUrt Frank Watt hurled the distance for the Phils and although he was nicked hard in spots, he msnaged to keep the Pirates away from home plate.

He was aided by soma clever fielding at times when he appeared to be in trouble. Cbuck Klein, Fred Koster and Les Mallon led the Phil attack with three safe hits each, while'every Phil connected for one safe blow; Spud Davis hammered a homer in the eighth. Georga Grantham swatted four ot the 13 Pirate blows. For six innings it wss a close con test, but in the seventh the Phils stepped out and gathered seven runs. That changed it into a rout.

Then in the eighth they picked up three mora and that made it a run' awsy. The only home run of the gsme was a blast over the right field wall by Dayla. It was Mr. Davis' first homer of the current campaign. Rather late in arriving you may remark, but then the bulky catcher has been busy otherwise.

What with giving Dick Bartell a battle for the league two-base hit leadership and pressing Harvey Hendrlck for the hatting lead, he has been quite busy. -f5oth Davis and Bartell delivered a double each yesterday, the former re maining out in front with 2t to 24.

If Brooklyn Tough Boy' Makes Reappearance Next Tuesday in Tiff With Saunders Back In harness after months of inactivity due to illness, Andy Brown. Brooklyn "tough boy," will ba accorded a warm reception when ha grapples with George Saunders, former Colorado miner, in the 15-minute semi-final at Charley Grip's outdoor arena here next Tuesday night.

Brown's reappearance will be the signal for one of tha greatest outpourings of mat fans to witness an outdoor show to data, Th sturdy Brooklyn grappler came Into prominence her as a result of being "black-Jacked" about tha head by a Camden cop after starting a fistic battle In the ring with Referee Bert Potts. However, previous to that occur rence, Andy had been struck ever tha left eye by a pop bottle throwa by an irate fan du to his rough-house tactics In his first bout here. He waa in soma sort of trouble in nearly every match, capping oft his performances with his battle with Potts and in turn being "blackjacked" to such a degree that he could not continue his bout with Regis Siki ot Abyssinia, after th latter had scored th first fall. About two months ago, he was stricken with an attack of kidney trouble and only resumed training three weeks ago. According to re ports, Andy has regained his vim and vigor and if he has, Saunders, whom Grip saya is another rugged wrestler, might as well prepare himself for a few odd punches provided the referee has his back turned.

Yet, all things considered. Brown Is a first-flight heavyweight arid a fit match for any man in bis division. Adhering to the rules and eliminating rougn stun, ne sun would be a great. attraction. Another tasty dish will be served In the feature match ot minutes, when Ivan Grandovitch, of Russia, and Nick Lutse, ex-football star at tha University at California, clash in a return go.

Their first meeting resulted in a draw after 45 minutes of bitter brawling. Opinion was divided rerarrilnr the decision, many feeling that the giant nussian should hav been awarded the verdict, while others favored Lutze as the winner. Neither of the principals was satisfied with the outcome and eagerly accepted Grip's offer of a return match. Over the 90-mlnute route, it's a certainty that a clear-cut victory will be scored by one of the behemoths. Two out of three falls will decide the match.

The contest, which is expected to attract one of the largest crowds that has witnessed a baseball skirmish in this city during the present season will get underway promptly at 1 o'clock with a aeating capacity to take care of the overflow crowd.

Schauta announced that Field Manager "Wid" Conroy will start "Rube" Chambers, veteran portsider who has seen plenty of action against major league outfits previously with George Gilham behind the plate. Jewel Ens, the Pirates' mastermind, has delegated Charley Woods to take the hill for the Bucs, with a possibility that a last minute change may be made with Erwtn Brame curving against the locals. The latter, however, is a righthander. Ens also stated thst he would start his regular lineup that has been battling the Phillies for the past few days with Gus 8uhr at first; George Grantham at second Tommy Thevenow at short, and "Pie" Tray-nor at third to round out the infield. The outfield will be patrolled by the Waner brothers, Lloyd and Paul, and Adam Comorosky.

The local infield will consist of Ad "Doc" Swigler at the Initial sack 'with Walt Welham at second and "Jew" Riegert at short, white Jim Curry will cavort around tha hot corner. The outer works will comprise Bill Graupner, Dick Spalding and Tod Dennehey. Fans can expect a stiff tussle and if the "Rube" is right the Bucs will have plenty of trouble In taking Camden over the hurdles. It will mark the fourth invasion of a major league club to this city this season. Previous major league outfits that have performed before local fans at Fairview were the New York Giants, St.

Louis Cardinals and "Burt" Shot-ton's Phillies. Only the Cardinals made a rout of their fracas, but the Phils and Giants were forced to extend their best efforts In copping the decision. Schaub also stated that tomorrow extra seats will have been added to take care ot the crowd. The local pilot has had a band of carpenters working in erecting bleachers along the first and third base side lines, and announced that these seata will be permanent.
