Binghamton , N. Y., Aug, 9.—Man­age r Chick H a r t m a n led his B i n g h a m ­ton Broomes in to foreign fields t h i s week to ba t t l e with the enemy.

All hope h a s been lost for a be t t e r po­si t ion in the league race, bu t the B i n g ­h a m t o n leader feels cer ta in his h i re ­l ings will crowd out Buffalo and Newark . ,

Still t he t e a m has not been p lay ing winn ing baseball .

Shannon has had m a n y op­por tun i t i es to fie the score or win a g a m e wi th a hit, bu t he failed to de ­liver.

Bu t t h e s t r e ak of J i m m y Riley; .the popular fielder, has pleased the fans . When S h a n n o n wen t into a s lump, Pviley woke up, and s t a r t e d to hit, and today Riley is hoverij ig a r o u n d the .300 m a r k and is improv ing his record each day. In a n effort to ge t more h i t t i n g out of the club, M a n a g e r H a r t ­m a n switched the b a t t i n g order. Riley, who had been h i t t i ng thi rd , w a s moved to fourth, and McLarry , who had been h : t t ing fifth, w a s moved to th i rd posi ­tion. * ~~

Since g e t t i n g back on the job, M a n ­ager H a r t m a n has plugged up the

weak spot on t h e team—second base . H a r t m a n is a rel iably fielder, and w i th O'Rourke. ho m a k e s a g r e a t m a n for the double play. H a r t m a n w a s never a h e a v y s t icker , bu t he is dependable in the pinches .

P e t e Shields, who covered first ba se for the team ear ly in 1918. joined t h e club las t week, a f te r se rv ing Uncle S a m for e ighteen mon ths .
