SOUTH Bend. Ind, Aug 29.-Middle
Western hstic fans are turning Their at
tention toward the activities of Dan
O'Dowd, New York heavyweight, who is
training here for his bout with Tommy
Gibbons in this city Labor day.
Dan doomed into the spotlight proper
recently with a ffteen-roun decision
over Bob Roper in New York Accord
ing to reports of the bout O'Dowd did
more to Roper than Gibbons was able to
do on two different occasions, Bob Mar
tin. Chuck Virgins. Bill Brennan and all
the other leading heavyweight did to the
Chicagoan-had him on the serve of be-
ing knocked out. More than that, this
same 0Dowd fought Bill Brennan an
e.ghtround draw last year; knocked out
Clay Turner and defeated every other
opponent.
Promoter Eugene Kessler reports that
two other -rounI bouts will be on the
program. One Of these probably will be
between Bud Taylor, the Terre Haute fly
weight, and Jimmy Kelly, Chicago 116-
FOUNDER. He also announces that the
advance sale indicates that many fans
will see the bouts, which will be staged
at Springbrook Park, starting at
o'clock in the afternoon.

Yanks and McGraw men close on the

more rabid fans are predicting a corner

The Yanks are in the best strategical
position OF the two pennant cOntenders-
One and a half games behind the Cleve-
land Indians, Miller Higgins team Is
favored by the remainder Of the season S
schedule. Speaker and his champions
have another hard Eastern road trip
ahead OF them. They have played most
Of their home games and from now On
they viii not find the picking easy.
When the Yanks reach Manhattan to-
morrow night they VIII have but nine
more games to play on the road, i've In
Philadelphia, three in Boston, and one
in Washington. Twenty-fOur more games
are on the Yankees schedule at the Polo
Grounds, where they have done their
best percenta e-building all season and
with the last Western road trip success
fully completed, it appears that the bur
den Of worry is with Speaker from now
on.
The surprising feat Of the Giants in
taking five straight from Pittsburgh and
reducing an imposing seven and one half
game lead to a short gap between first
and second places has put them very
much into the National League race once
again.
The Giants still have the handicap of a
long Western road trip ahead Of them
and the fact that they have lost four
more games than the Pirates is a feature

gerous once more and il is always well to
