The demands of charity, which brought them together in "l030 and 3931 for post season games, was a pri mary cause of the resumption.

TkF PVP " 9 JLQ 1ST -Schaaf Knocked Cold As Tenth Round Is Ended Hv William Weekes (Associated Press Sports Writer) CHICAGO, Sept. 1 fPMax Baer, California's contender for the heavy weight champion of the world, today had a knockout over Ernie Schaaf of Boston but It will never find its way into the record books. After one of the most astonishing finishes seen In any ring, Schaaf, the protege of Jack Sharkey, world heavy weight titleholdcr, was stretched out cold In the Chicago stadium last night Just as the bell Bounded ending their ten round contest. From the battle Baer salvaged a mere decision victory over the man who had been regarded as the better of the younger contenders. From the second to the ninth round Jt had not been so much of a fight. Both boxers, big. powerful fellows, had done their work with such delibera tion and study that Referee Tommy Thomas warned them to put more spirit into their efforts. Then, as the ninth round started and Just after the second warning, Baer piled into Schaaf with a withering assault to the head. Schaaf had fought his way out of a few similar flurries earlier in the bout, but this time Baer kept firing, smothering the Boston blond's efforts to fight free. Schaaf was a tired bewildered fighter when the round opened. In the tenth Baer cupped Schaaf with short, numbing shots to tho chin and Jaw with both hands, and Ernie's legs began to buckle. Bell Marks Kayo Two more bruising rights landed on Schaaf's unprotected Jaw and down he went Just on the final bell sounded. Nearly five minutes of frantic work by his handlers was required to bring him to and get him to his corner. Schaaf, with a nine and one-half pound pull In weight, scaling 209 to 200 for Baer, made the fight most of tho way, thumping Baer with both hands to head and body. The Call -fomlan, however, took everything and even laughed about It. It was their second meeting, Schaaf having won a decision victory In New j York nearly two years ago.

After an amazing spurt that car ried the Bucs from hist place to first in a few weeks, the team collapsed and many arc the reusons advunccd for the blow-up. . Floyd Vaughan, youthful shortstop, has shouldered much of the blame. In a big meaaure, it was Vaughan's spectacular work afield and his heavy and timely hitting that carried tho team to the top of the National league. Blew Sky High Ills early summer showing stamped him as one of tho finds of tho sea son. And as Vaughan went, so went the Pirates. Vaughan struck a slump on the last eastern invasion. He Juggled drives that formerly he was able to tako without effort, and pitchers he slaughtered In May and June had him waving at the plate.

Pirates, Cubs -Hang Up Wins In National League By Orlo Robertson Tho Pittsburgh Pirates, fighting to hold their runner-up position In the National league pennant race aro away on another winning streak. They accounted for their fifth consecu tive victory Wednesday when Captain Pie Traynor parked a home run In the belachers with Comorosky aboard I -to defeat the Braves, 2 to 1. The Chicago Cuds ran their win ning record to 12 consecutive gomes In a wierd 10 to 9 decision over the New York Giants. The Giants chased Lon Warneke, the league's leading hurler, to the showers in the first In ning only to have the Cubg.tle the count In the ninth. The Giants come back with four runs, but Mark Koeulg and Cuyler teamed to give the league leaders five in their half of the frame. The Dodgers took two from the cRds, winning the opener 7 to 1 be hind the four-hit pitching, of Bill Clark and the nightcap 11-10. , At liletlcs Lose In the American league the Tigers broko Tony Freitas' winning streak at ten straight, when Elon Hogsett hit two homers and Gehringer one to defeat the Athletics, 5 to 4.

Gibson does not blame the fall of tho Bucs to the failure of Vaughan j and Plet to stand the pace. 1 I He points to the fact that 'left ; hand pitchers have been poison to ' tho club as a whole all year and that left-handers are being sent against j tho team four and five times a week, j Wunerh lose Punch j The Waner act has not been cllck : ing of late, and Comorosky, while he i played a brilliant game in the ab ' eence of the Blower Dave Barbee, was j yanked in the hope of hitting a wln j ning combination. But to date It j hasn't worked. I The team is not hitting; and tho i pitchers, overworked several weeks ago In a long string of double head- era, have lost much of their effec tiveness. That's the answer, says the skip per, and he insists he's going to play tho schedule out with the lineup that was good enough to hold first place longer than any .other club this season.
