Sam Jones of the Red Sox hung
around two seasons before he pitched
a full game. This year he has won IL
out of l6.
1t may be that the Red Sox will land
the American league championship, but
with their former substantial lead
whitfield down" n ig evident that the
Boston lads will have to go strong from
now out They are almost invincible,
however, at Fenway park, and that is
whore nearly all their remaining games
will be played.
BY defeating the Giants again yes
terday the Cubs gained another game
and now have lead of six and a half
games With less than a month to 90
it looks as though the Chicago bunch
would land the National league pen
nant. Brooklyn, which has been play
ing fast BALL begins series of three
games with the Cubs today and after
that the bulk Of the Cub S games will
be played on their home grounds.
Secretary Baker gave baseball a re-
pricye until Sept ], vet the two major
leagues decided to play until Sept.
| and then stage worlds series. The
plan may 90 through all right, but il
wouldn I be surprising if the secretary
of war had something more to say soon
President Ban Johnson, long regarded
as the Gar of the American league, il
right when he says the world s serie
should be played not later than Sept
/, yet he has so long ruled with
mailed fist that it is refreshing to fin,
some of the club owners, includin
Harry Frazee of Boston, Charles Com
iskcy Of Chicago and Clark Griffit
of Washington, mastering up courag
enough to declare that hereafter the
are going to have something to sa
about the affairs of the league.

.155 AIRMEN KILLED
TRAINING FOR WAR
New Worlds Record Established on
the Flying Fields Of America
the Past Year.

WASHINGTON, Aug 6-Oficial fig
ures given out by the air service show
that the total losses in the training OF
fliers in this country since September,
1917. have been l55. This is one man
killed for every 1880 hours of flight, which
is declared to be new worlds record
for safety in training men for air service
in war time The summary shows "A Off
GERS 65 cadets, enlisted men, and 7 civil
ian instructors killed.
A statement issued by the war depart
ment says:
THE figures relating to the safeguard
ing of cadets of the new army training
for duty overseas as pilots and observ-
ers are now on a par with, if not actu-
ally lower than the percentage figures OF
this nations allies, and are believed TO
be much under the figures of the central
powers.
United States schools in attaining
the present rating have proceeded on the
theory that three out of four deaths in
1 Aying at the front have been due to
lack Of judgment, and that the one man
ont of four has been killed in action
1 Further. that if a cadet were given al
his instruction in the flying schools il
the United States he would put all his
air training out of mind when he fnall,
reached the front and concentrate en-
tirely ON fighting Because of the fac
that he had been perfectly trained as
stunt fier. it is held he would be tn
more able to pick up his fighting tactic
quickly
