Chicago, Aug. 30.-Introducing the
"pistol pocket for womenl
The Fashion Art League announced
today that the latest thing in martial
styles will be the old fashioned hip
pocket-an institution that has been
purely masculine since men discarded
knickerbockers for trousers.
But the nearest approach to firearms
women will carry in the new pockets

Another conservation movement was
proposed today by Nine. Margaret
johnson of Chicago. She sale" that navy
blue would be used in women s suits
this fall and winter to replace khaki
colored materials.
"We've got to have some military
effect" she said, "and as there are
fewer sailors than soldiers, we will en-
dorse navy blue as the popular suit
shade, so the government may have
more khaki dyes for army uniforms,
Use of cottons and ginghams for
house dresses was also proposed as a
conservation measure.

New York, Aug. 30.-If Boston is to
win the American league pennant, start
ing today with Philadelphia on the
home field, it will be necessary for
the club to play at $40 clip and keep
it up to the last game, provided Chica-
go does no better than to win one more
than half its remaining games.
The lead Of four and a half games
now held by Chicago looks exactly like
cut on the world s series from the
average angle. Only by the most re-
markable vision is it possible to detect
anything else, although it is not for
gotten point that the Red Sox are wont
to take their pennants without any
sauce.
The White Sox have twenty seven
games remaining on their schedule. Only
nine of them remain to be played on the
Chicago grounds. Three of these games
will be played in Boston, where in the
past they have shown their nerve by
holding the Red Sox at least even. By
winning fourteen and losing thirteen of
these remaining contests it will be pos
sible for the White Sox to finish with
a percentage of GIG.
The Red Sox are booked to entangle
themselves with the opposition in thir-
ty three more games If they win twen-
| ty one of these endeavors and drop
only twelve the best they will have to
show for themselves will be an aver
age of GA.
The White Sox pitching staff has just
begun to regain form something it
lacked on the team s last eastern trip.

didn It do on the last turn--hit 1t looks
