Yankees, Though
Passive, Continue
To Increase Lead
BY BRIGGS

Providing the weather man changes
his tactics the baseball fans of Greater
New York will have the choice of two
double bills this afternoon. At the
polo Grounds the league-leading
Yankees will battle with the Red SoX
IN two games, while at Ebbets Field
the Dodgers, inspired by their two vic
tories over the Giants, will clash twice
with the Phillies.
The lay-off which has fallen to the
lot OF the Yankees has been profitable
TOR them, as the White Sox and Indians
nave dropped several points in per
centage through defeats suffered at the
hands OF the Browns and Tigers re-
spectively. The Colonels bows now
mead the column of standings with
o67. Cleveland is second with .611.
and Chicago third with 500.
Johnny Jones, an infielder who made
name for himself as a member of
the baseball team at the Great Lakes
Naval Training Station, reported to The
Yankees yesterday. Huggins is now
fairly we'll equipped with utility ma
terlal. In the outfeld he has Wick
land, Halas and O'Doul for substitutes.
whereas in the infield he can call upon
Ward, Fewster and Jones to fill yacan-
cies.
There will be Sunday games in both
Manhattan and Brooklyn, the Red Sox
appearing at the Polo Grounds and the
Phlllles continuing their series at Eh-
bets Field. On Monday the Yankees
will have another double header wifi

such slight encouragement thu
gentlemen who undertook to raise
the funds have given up their

On Monday next the City
Board Of Trustees, viii reopen the
bids for the PAVING of Main
Street Of New Iberia. This time
we believe the proposals will be
in such shape that they will be ac-
ceptable to the Council. It IS
hoped that some advantage was
gained when the last bids sub
mitted were rejected This was
necessary because the figures
seemed ont Of all proportion when
taken into consideration paving
contracts completed in other cities
the past two years. The City en-
eineers advised the Board Of
Trustees to call for more bids
which they did to protect the
property holders.
