While the Canlinalti were In-ei-pusim; their lead over the Giant h lo three and one-halt games yes lertluy, the Maekmen wore ref us ing for the HOeond time In two days to reduce the Yankee margin to the same figure. The chain pious dropped their second straight lo the White Sox. but the Mckmnn similarly exposed their chins td ; the Tigers for ,the second time in i as many days. The latest YanUee reverse, dee-: orated with Bubo Ituth's -liith lfilis; lionierun, was due chiefly to the ! atitles of I'rban Faber. the ancient HpilbalkM who for fi years has been a particular nuisance to Ruth, ami the Yankees. 'Old I'rban re-! ceived gleaming s u p p o r t from j .Johnny Most II and Chalmer Clr-sell as he won by 8 to -'J. but he could have slipped by with much worse backing.

Quinn held the Detroit eli 1 etny to three earned runs, but the! home boys were unable lo get more tlutn three, earned or otherwise, from ihe offerings of Messrs, Gib son and Smith. The final reckon ing was C to 3 In favor of the Tigers. ' Cleveland won by 7 to 0 behind the fine pitching of Joe Shaute in Boston, while -Garland linixton hurled Hie Senators lo a I lo It decision over Ham Gray and the Jh'owns.

Nationals last night, when he lost his first encounter of the' season j to Roberto Roherti, the Italian giant, on V foul in six rounds. Up j to the final blow, a low left to I the body, the Cleveland baker had j kept his record . clear as a -:;iant killer. He won three of the five j full rounds after Uuherli took the first two. j Robert!, showing vast improve- j ment over his last engagement when he lost to Phil Scott, the ( Englishman, did in six rounds i what. only. Tom Heeney, the final victor and challenger of Gone Tun noy, was able to tio all last win ter, llut where ilueney's margin was clear and decisive, the vic tory of the big Italian was hidden in a colud that only a return match can clear. Opinions about the ringside were almost evenly divided over the final blow, a low loft that buried deep in RoberU's body as he stop ped into Uisko' from the ropes. To. many it appeared that the punch hit cleanly In the pit of the Italian's stomach. To -others, Including referee Johnny McAvoy. the punch was foul. The fans rose and bellowed their disapproval for fully five min utes as "Double Uoborti's" seconds worked over him and finally lug ged the battler, unconscious ami in great pain, from the ring. The crowd of cfrise- to 20,000 fans greeted Harry Wills, the huge negro who once "black menaced" Jack- Pempsey'H crown, in a new capacity as Uobertl's second.
