Ever since the chubby Hack be came a hero to Chicago Cub fans, he has encountered his most mortifyinsr moments when the great Dazzler was pitching and now more than Indian sign on uie nome run aiiva.f- Sunday, Dazzy broke up a a? consecutive game hitting streak for Hack and to make It more humiliat ing, the Brooklyn pitcher sent Wil son back to the bench four times via the strikeout route. It was the second time this year that Dazzy had whiffed Hack four times, and Vance's showing against Wilson has perplexed Cub . fans perhaps more than it has Wilson. NorUiside rooters point to the fact that Wilson Is a "fast ball" hitter and If there Is any pitcher whom he should hit it Is Vance. Yet Dazzy uses a high hard one as his most effective pitch against the Ctro Idol. Another puzzling point Is the fact that while other pitchers once In a rwhtle "sneak" one over on Wilson for a third strike, Hack Invarlaoiy goes down swinging against Vance. Yet Dazzy Is one of the most adept pitchers In the league at disposing of a batter on a caned rairu striae. WRIGHT LEFT BEHIND Brooklyn WH-Olenn Wright was left behind when the Brooklyn club left for the west and will be oper ated on this week by Dr. Whitman for the removal of a splintered bone in the ball player's shoulder.

CAPITAL OFFERS HEARTS IN DIXIE The speaking screen 18 seeing sig nificant development as the motion picture and stage are brought still closer toeether throueh a menriiur of tneir respective technique. One fully expects to find extraordinary contributions to the new art of the "talkies" but one does not always expect to find such a totally new note in entertainment as that af forded by the Pox Movietone pro duction "Hearts in Dixie" which tells Its story largely through the use of singing and dancing, is fresh as a revue and Impressive as grand opera. Lovers of American spirtuals and folk songs they are legion not only In foreign lands will hear the fin est examples presented for the first time from the speaking screen in "Hearts in Dixie." This story which Is shot through with sparkling com edy, Is an unprecedented novelty In that songs are used freely to further the action. As an added attraction with this bill, that Is the current attraction at Bllgh's Capitol, the management Is offering a selection of several very wonderful Vltaphone acts, and the feature of the short subjects is a two reel all-talking comedy.

Each Year Athletics Seem Sure Of American League Crown; Yankees Appear Through New York (UP) Major speeding toward new battle grounds. The fourth intersec tional series opened with two preliminary battles Monday Brooklyn at Pittsburgh in the National league and Cleveland at Philadelphia, For the next two weeks will battle along the western front V- and the western American league teams will Invade the eastern front. The third Intersection series which closed Sunday just about crowned the Philadelphia Athletics champions of the American league and narrowed the National league race down to two teams the Pi rates and the Cubs. Seven games behind the league leaders, the New York Giants are virtually out of the race unless they show a start ling reversal of. form soon. Instead ot losing ground in the West, as many had anticipated when they dropped three out - of four games in the first series ot the trip, at Chicago, the Athletics in creased their lead over the Yankees to 10H games. With Babe Ruth out of the game for at least a week longer with an injured muscle in his groin and the pitching staff faltering, the Yan kees apparently have shot their best bolt and are no longer a serl- out menace to Connie Mack's dream of just one more pennant. The A's won 12 and lost seven In the west, completing the trip with four straight victories over the tough Tigers. The Yankees won 10 and lost seven in the west closing with a disastrous stay at Cleveland where they dropped three out- of five. Cleveland has the Yankees Jmxed this season, winning seven of the 10 games played thus far. Fortune favors the Cubs in the National league race as the Pirates will be forced to carry on their drive indefinitely without their two greatest stars, Burleigh Grimes and Pie Traynor. Grimes, who has won 16 games and lost two this season, will be out of the game for several weeks. He dislocated the thumb on his right hand In the game against the Giants Saturday.

Skits and Scratches The "All-Stars" are living up to their name in one respect, at least They appeared on the field Sunday, with no two of their suits alike. Ono or two more appearances against the Senators and we can christen them the "All-Suits." Red Rupert, former prexy for the Albany Alcos, held down a bench. As the years roll by. Red becomes more portly and holding down bench comes more appropriate for for him. Change of leadership dldn t seem to approve Woliers' chances over the locals.
