Hr William J. Clilpinan, Associated Press SportH Writer.) ' . The long-awaited grudge meet ing between the Recta and the Cubs came oft' in 'Cincinnati yesterday, but hardly as advertised, laired by threatn and counter-threats cf what would happen when Messrs. Wilson. Kolp and Donohuo found themselves once more within the confines of a single ball park, even so roomy a battleground as Red land field, 35,432 clients appeared before the turnstiles with cash i.i hand. ' . They settled into their seats, or funding upacea, expecting at least a 10-round bout.' but really hoping for a battle of the Marne. After all they had been led to hope for. they saw. nothing but two very businesslike ball games played by peaceful young men who appar ently did not even know how to tnake a hostile gesture. Tied Lucas won the opener for the home team by 6 to 3. his 17th triumph of the Mention, but Iuy Rush turned the tables for Chicago in the nightcap, winning his lSlii game by a score of 10 to 1. after being held 0 to M by Pete Donohue fur seven rounds. The crowd, the largest paid at tendance ever accomodated at Red land field, was not hostile to the pennant-bound Bruins, although Hack Wilson did hear a few deeu throatcd Bronx cheers from time to time. The fans more than made up for this, however, by the way they cheered Hack's circus catcher, and he made several in the two games. Culw StreU'li Margin. The even break enabled the Cubs io stretch their margin half a game to 13 full contest as the Pirates again bowed to the Ciant.-j, this time 10 to 3. The Bruin edge now Is exactly the same size aa that owned by the wily Mr. Mc OllUcuddy In the rival league. The Pirates are only throe games ahead of the Giants, who took three out of four. Lester Swcetland pitched the Phillies to. a 4 to 0 triumph over tjte Robins In Brooklyn yesterday, allowing only four hits, and "Willie iShprdel shut out. the Braves in Boston by an identical acore whl,c allow ng five hits. " . .. The game at the Polo grounds was marked by Mel Ott's -32nd home-run and by Cy RigleVs manipulation of a broadcasting de vice which amplified announce ments of batteries and player changes to fans throughout the vast park. ' After 32 scoreless innings, the master minds of the Yankees de vised a plan for getting runs across the plate, at once simple and ef fective. It was merely to have Mr. Ruth step to the front and tiA miner the batl out of the lot. which he had neglected to do for some days until yesterday, as box scores of the Yankee games will show. Ruth Homes Twice. Putting this plan into operation against Wally Stewart In the fourth and the ninth innings at Sportsman's park yesterday, Mr. Ruth snapped the . Yankee siring of scoreless innings and lifted his Jjersonal home-run string from 3 lo 3r, but failed to win the ball game, which the Browns did 'it the expense of Roy Sherid. by 3 to 'i. Ruth's two homers broke up a tie which had existed amonc the Yankee slugger and Hack Wilson and Chuck Klein. The Athletics also lot yesle day when Al ThoniHs allowed just four hits, to win by 3 to 0. It was 3 out of 4 for the White Sox over i lie leaders, who now have dropped six of their Inst eight. The Maekian lead remains fixed at 13 games because the Yankee record over the fame period h identical. - Detroit finally, won from "Wash ington, stopping the Senators- by H to 7 In 11 Innings at Navin field, and the Indians divided a douMe header with the rejuvenated Red Sox. Cleveland took, the opener by 6 to 4 and Boston the night cap by D to 3. FIRS! BASI (IRMl'AUO. Aur.
