As the games, which do not
mean anything but loss of dig
nity, went aheud yesterday, Wui

clubs.
Tho Philadelphia Athletics, New
York Giants und Detroit main
tained the prestige of tho majors
by beutlng back tho opposition
from lower classifications.
Four National League clubs en
gaged in battles which might havo
been dropped out of the regular
scuson weeks ahead.
Drooklyn made it three in a
row from Lost on by winning a
well-pitched game, 3 to 2, whllo
the Chicago Cubs were trouncing
tho Pittsburgh Pirates, 5 to 2.
The Browns were cheered in
their 3-to-2 defeat by the Kansas
City Blues at the pitching of
Georgo Blaeholder, Tulsa's con
tribution to the St. Louis pitch
ing staff. He showed good form
and left tho game in time to
escape the beating.
The Washington Senators, de
feated by Birmingham, made Ed
Wells, former Detroit pitcher, a
goat when he was cast for the
part of a hero. He won 1 3
games and lost only one for Bir
mingham last year. The score
was 7 to 6.
The New Orleans Pelicans have
not learned to pronounce the
name of Joe tihaute, but they
solved his dolivery to win from
Cleveland, 16 to 13.
The Giants came from behind
to score 17 runs In a singlo In
lng and stop the Chattanooga
Lookouts, 13 to 8. Until the
loaded hour, when aome of the
players went to bat three times,
the Giants had no part of 17
runs.
Tho Athletics appeared for the
series to decide the championship
of Philadelphia today by staging
a white elephant parade at
Greensboro. Tho Piedmont
Leaguers were buried under a
count of 22 to 6. Six home runs,
four In one Inning, helped tho
winners. Eddie Collins and Tris
Speaker struck blows for the old
guard. Jimmy Fox represented
the juveniles with two, and Dykes
and Hauser completed the sextet.
The Phillies, weather-bound at
homo, Impatiently awaited their
opponents' coming. Fort Worth
was easy for Detroit, with the
final accounting 9 to 3 In a
game which Uttlo Jackie Tavencr,
tho hardest hitter In tho game
