NATIONAL TUSSLE
REMARKABLY CLOSE
Giants and Cubs Running Neck and Neck, With
Philies lowering About Within
Striking Distance

New York. June 1S.-The June. 1911,
tussle for first place will take d place
in National League chronicles as one
of remarkable closeness. The Giants
and Cubs are running neck and neck
race. which is exciting not only for
its closeness, but the length of time
these two teams have been seesa wing
in and out of first place.
TO add uncertainty 10 the struggle,
the Phillies are lowering around in
close striking distance, ready to slip
into first or second place should either
OF the two others slip out. and the
Pittsburgs are close enough to jump
TO the fore with any kind of steady
winning spell Furthermore, the Car
dnals have been knocking at the door
OF the first division. Altogether, il is
IA furious drive which is on among five
OF the league teams to see which can
stick or gain until others fall back.
Al no time this month have the first
two teams been more than thirty-on
points apart, and once they We're no
points apart
The American League race also is
rapidly growing to be more than
one team AFFAIR The burst of speed
shown by the Dctroits early in the
season makes that clubs present gait
look all the slower. Naturally. the
teams present stride Is compared with
it's flying clip awhile back There is
a pronounced difference between De-
troits speed now. and then. 1t was
reckoned. of course, that the Tigers
would slow up. for they were going
at an unna tural pace. but it was not
reckoned that they would come back
SO fast. The Detroits have gone from
one extreme to the other, but 1t is
quite probable that If they were play
ing beyond their speed at one time
they are playing below it now. That
they wont brace and have good deal
10 say about the pennant is as improb-
able as that they would continue to
win games In the wholesale fashion
they were doing.
It is the Athletics who now are
going at a swift pace, and there is
this much to be said about them: they
seem more capable of maintaining the
pace than the Detroits did in maintain
ing their early season clip; at least,
this is true in the light of recent
events. a characteristic of the Ath-
letics as cvinced last year. is ability
to plough ahead consistently and
strongly, and for a prolonged. stretch

BILLS WOULDSTOP
POOL ROOM EVILS

New York, June lS.-"Thc only way
10 cripple the pool-rooms and hand
books is to pass the Cuttings racing
bills" said former Chief of Police Bill
Devery yesterday. There's no rae
ing here now. yet there's plenty of
betting in town on the races in Canada,
Kentucky and elsewhere. The pool.
rooms and hand books afford the only
opportunities for such speculation. and
as hettors cannot be suppressed there's
plenty of business.
ITS a mistake to say that the clos.
who cannot afford it from playing the
the races outside of this State just the
same, and they can bet low as 81 II
they haven't any more. The hand
book men thrive on these small wagers
and they can do as they please about
quoting odds and paying off. In fact,
the city bettor mas no protection at all
if the rooms and the hand books want
to run out.
II know what am talking about
when 1 say that by opening the tracks
you can practically close the city BET
ting places. and Ill show you why.
When the horses are running at
Gravesend. for instance, the Jockey
Club Keeps back the information. That
is to say, the names of the horses and
Jockeys. the scratches, weights and post
positions are not allowed to be tele-
graphed or telephoned from inside the
tracks until it is too late for the rooms
to do business every afternoon, and
for that reason they give up the game"

ont Of Lightweight class.

Boston, June 1s.-Critics here insist
that Matt Wells Is a welterweight. The
fact that he admits that he cannot
make 1873 rlnSside bars him from the
lightweight division, they say. Wells
weighed nearly 140 pounds when he
boxed Pal Moore. and as the American
welterweight limit is 142 pounds ring
SIDE Boston ring sharps say the Eng
lishman should graduate into that
class. On the other hand It is pointed
out that Wells is within his rights in
making the English lightweight limit
135 al 3. and that nobody is compelled
to meet him under those conditions.
