Three of the most important
series still hanging on the major

Anvthine can haooen to the
standings before Sunday night
when both the Red Birds ana
Senators could be occupying the
top rung. St. Louis, in addition
to sweeping all four from the
first place Bruins, would have
to count on Chicago's "suspended
game" with Brooklyn as lost to
case into the lead by percentage
points.
Three Strong Starters
Billy Southworth has the same
three-starters who k.nocked off
Chicago three straight last week
end, to go in the four-game ser
ies opening tonight under the
Sportsman's park arcs. Harry
Brecheen, Ken Burkhardt and
Red Barrett with probably
George Dockins to finish up.
Charley Grimm also has his aces
in line with Hank Wyse, Claude
Passeau, Hank Borowy and Ray
Prim ready. Two single night
games and a Sunday double are
listed.
Pittsburgh made the Cards'
task a little easier, yesterday by
downing Chicago, b-4, slicing
their lead to four games. Three
runs in the seventh with the help
of a triple by Al Giongnddo,
double by Bill Salkeld and a
single by Frankie Gustine de

Preacher Roe scored his 11th
triumph with help from Xavier

of his major league career.
New York Gains
New York was the only con
tender to gain in the American
by a 7-1 romp over Boston with
Floyd Bevens turning in a gaudy
one-hit job.
Cleveland got away 'with a 4-4
tie in Chicago as Don Ross
homered after Dutch Meyer sin
gled in the ninth frame off Orval
Grove. It was a tie game be
cause the umpires had to halt
play by agreement at the end
of the ninth to permit the Tribe
to hop a rattler for Detroit. All
other American leaguers had an
off day.
Any repetition of last week's
sweeps by Cleveland over De
troit and New York over Wash
ington will really scramble the
American league chase, setting
the stage for another driving
September finish.
The Tigers are sure to see

Sunday, and must face Allie Rey

Lipscomb To Defend Junior
Mat Crown Against Dusette
Fairy Trace Cops
Longacres Feature
SEATTLE, Aug. 31 VP) Fairy
Trace made up a 10-length dis
advantage to win the ' $1020
feature seventh race at Long-
acres race track yesterday.
The winner paid S14.3U. S6.10
and S2.90 in the mutuels. French
Parasol placed second for $5.80
and $2.60 and the favorite, Join
Up, paid $2.30 show money.
Total mutuel handle for the day
was $174,102.
Blood and gore will drip from
the Klamath arena tonight when
Jack "Buck" Lipscomb defends
his junior heavyweight crown
against his hated rival, George
Dusette, the French - Canadian
Hercules.
The brutal Hoosier has snarl
ed that he will send Dusette
from the ring in a wooden over
coat and that he thinks Georges
has unmitigated gall to even at
tempt to regain the belt. In fact,
Jack leads one to believe that
the party is going to be a bit
rough tonight and that the chal
lenger will be lucky to get out
in one whole piece.
On the other hand, Dusette
has several points in his favor.
He defeated Lipscomb here last
week and also possesses an iron
determination to regain the
laurels he lost to Jack in Port
land. Chances are Georges will de
pend mainly upon his crushing
full-Nelson to win back the toga,
while Lipscomb will resort to
every trick in the book to be
labor his opponent into submis
sion. Betting up and down the main
drag seems to give Lipscomb a
slight edge with the odds mount
ing in his favor as the time for
the bout comes nearer. Support
ers of Dusette point out that he
possesses the most punishing
hold of any muscler on the cir
cuit in his full-Nelson, but the
boys backing Lipscomb feel that
Georges will not be able to cope
witn Jack s savaee attack.
Whoever wins, this tussle will
be one of the most exciting frays
to taice place here since Tige was
a small dog and may the best
man win.
In the scmi-windup, Gorilla
Poggi is slated to tangle with
Terrible Ivan Jones in another
first class tiff. Poggi made an
auspicious debut here last week

Geese Coming
In At Tulelake
Geese are beginning to wing
in at the Tulelake game refuge,
according to Howard Sargeant,
reiuge manager, although no
definite count has yet been
taken.
They arc mostly honkers, he
said, and lots of speckle-breast
arrived mere last week. The
geese are feeding on Lower
Klamath lake more than at Tule
lake, Sargeant stated, and most
of the flocks are migrating from
the extreme northern part of the
United States.
No snow geese have arrived
as yet, but an influx of geese of
all kinds is expected soon, he
said.

Pitching Pays Off
Stalwart pitching, which has

strength all season, paid off
again last night. Portsider Wan-

gained a shutout except for his
own wildness when he walked
four men in the first inning.
Centcrficldcr Frank Shone, who
scored three runs, broke the ice
for the Beavers in the third
