Conoids sreu ijniGii PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Aug". 15 DX It's a simple matter in arithmetic arith-metic to figure out the "Brooklyn Dodgers aren't going to overhaul the pace-making Cincinnati Reds In the National league. The Dodgers held their position five games behind the idle Reds by yesterday's standoff with the tail-end Phillies, but they actually yielded ground because they sEp-ped sEp-ped to six games arrears in the all-important lost column. The Dodgers have won only 11 games and Jost IT , in the last month. During the same period the Reds have won 17 and lost 13 to pick up 3 games on Leo Du-rocher's Du-rocher's club. However, since July 27 tbe Reds have been in a slump, twice losing three straight, but even with all Cincinnati's troubles the Dodgers : have been able to gain only three games. During that period the Reds lost 12 and won 8 while the Dodgers won 12 and lost 10. Leo Durocher is dissatisfied with the way some of his players have been disporting themselves ; lately, especially his pitchers. It took three men to pull the Dodgers through to a 6-5 victory in the first game against the Phils, and five hands couldn't halt the tail-enders tail-enders in the nightcap which went to, Doc Prothro's club, 9-6. Hubbell Supreme . . The New York Giants and Boston Bos-ton Bees traded a pair of shutouts, Carl Hubbell topping Dick Er rick-son, rick-son, 1-0, in the 12-inning opener and Manuel Salvo, ex-Giant, conquering con-quering Harry Gumbert in the nightcap, 6-0. .The St. Louis Cards moved up In a deadlock for fifth place by beating the Pirates, 7-6, in 11 innings last night. The New York Yanks had tlisir eye on third place today after winning win-ning their sixth straight, an 8-3 triumph over the Red Box. ' , . Detroit, with Charley Gehrlnger back in the lineup, snapped. its 4-gaxne losing streak ,with a 13-7 rout of the Browns. , Buddy Lewis' triple with two but and tvp. on jnth4.njinth gave Washington a 4-3 victory over the Athletics. National league castoff Al Smith held the Chicago White Sox to one hit and pitched the Cleveland Indians In-dians to a 4-0 ..victory last night before 59,063, largest ; arc-light crowd in history. The- win was Smith's 13th, the Indians third straight, and sent ' them ; into a two-game ' lead over the Tigers, dropping the White Sox into fifth place.

Wednesday, the defending champion cham-pion Provo team dropped its fifth game of the second half, losing a 5-4 decision to the league-leading Erigham City Peach' es on the upstate nine's diamond. The defeat left Provo in p. three-way tie for third place with Pinney and Magna-Garfield. two and one-half games out of first place. . If the Coora are to win a berth in the playoff series, ser-ies, they will have to jvin their remaining five games, and Brig-ham Brig-ham will have to lose more than half of its six-game schedule.: It was the Coora' ability to hit the slants of Howard Stone that cost Provo the contest. Stone yielded only five hits . and one earned run in shading Henry Smith in a tight pitching duel. , Brigham, City scored in the first frame and pushed across three runs in the third frame, while Stone was holding Provo batters in check. In the fifth, Provo pushed across two runs, but the Peaches countered with another run la the seventh to offset off-set the Coora two-run uprising in the eighth.

GOSHEN, Aug. 15 (U.B I hate to get sulky about the Sulkies, but I would like to ask an important question before I shake the pari-mutuel pari-mutuel tickets' and corrt silks out of my hair and head down the pike toward New York. Why do the trotting. and pacing folk call their association of tracks the grand circuit?' Could it be because . grand circuit cir-cuit , literally means "big run-around?" run-around?" Certainly that's what a lot "of us who came up. here for the Hambletonian yesterday feel that we got. Not in the Hambletonian, Hamble-tonian, 'mind you,; which was a beautifully run race, but in the seventh event on the program, the Arrowpoint stake for three year old trotters and paceTrs, purse $1,000- Six swingers and swayers were entered In the; Arrowpoint but you could only bet on five of them. The track . officials, with a Rolicitude toward the parl-mutuel machine that was touching; barred a horse named . Fearless Peter 'from the betting. The reason given for this was that Fearless Peter .'was far and 1 away the best horso ' In the field, and was certain to win. The officials did hot want any of the customers to enjoy the rare pleasure pleas-ure of wagering on what appeared to be a sure thing. Had betting on Fearless Peter been allowed, the crowd, which knew he was the class horse Just as did the management, man-agement, undoubtedly would have bet so "much on him, and so little on his rivals, that a minus pool would have been the result. And a minus pool Is the only way a track can lose money on a race, i Fearless .Peter won both heats easily and was regarded as the winner everywhere but at the mutuels. There the clerks paid off win tickets on the horse that finished fin-ished second, place tickets on the horse that was third, and show money 'on the horse that came in fourth. - Now what kind of business is that? Raco tracks survive because the customers gamble, . so why shouldn't the tracks themselves be willing to take a fiyer once in a while ? I wouldn't mind - how many times a track barred horses which couldn't lose, if it would only be fair about it and prohibit wagering wag-ering on horses that didn't have a chance to wn. Because for every sure winner which starts there are half a dozen fur-coated hatracks which have ho possible chance of getting home first . . " ' While I'm on the .subject of Part-mutuels, Part-mutuels, let me tell you that the ones at Goshen yesterday, established estab-lished a new world's record not in handle, but in mis-handle. '.There weren't one-tenth enough of them to handle the big crowd of 40,000, in the first place, and 'as a result the stampede outside the windows combined the most uncomfortable features of the . . Oklahoma, land rush, tbe dash to the .Yukon and a bargain basement on Christmas Eve. About one thing, however, there can be no complaint. The corn on the cob sold by -the good church-women church-women under their striped tents pitched hard by ' the gambling windows was perfect, v " , Salt Lake .
