The "Lanky Lammer," as the
slang coiners know him, has got the
knack Of hitting them at home down
fine.
In view Of the fact that two-thirds
of his four-plate wallops have been
made at Sportman's Park, Ken"
now has a royal chance, figuring
on the well.known past perform
ances, of leading all the boys for
home run honors.
This assertion finds strengthen

son. The Browns are now home
for a stay that will last until DC.
tober /, the end Of the season. No
less.
The Browns found the Indian
hurlers on the frayed and ragged
edge, and hoped on them at will
pretty generally. Except for Tues
day, their own pitchers went rather
we'll, showing II anything. an i'm
provement over their form In the
East.
It fell to ken" Tuesday to win
with a homer. The blow came
at the most opportune time 1t ID
possible for a home run to come.
The stations were crowded. And.
IL known all around the land now,
so keen is the interest in the race,
IL won for the Browns. Other
wise, they would have been beaten
9 to 6, instead Of taking the game
10 to 8.
The return Of ken" to congenial
home surroundings, home cooking,
ETC.. etc, has set the highly ex.
cited st. Louisians up by their
ears. Something like that anyway.
They are yelling themselves hoarse
for him to get one."
The more Ken" gets. the harder
the way Of Babe Ruth. Rogers
Hornsby, of the Cardinals. and
''Tiliy" Walker. Of the Athletics.
Hornsby is runner-up with "a just
now. while Walker has 33. and
Ruth 20. Ken" has many follow
ers to be out there" in front at
the windup.
But, a more important feature
to the st. LOuisians-and, be It
said, to Williams himself, for he
has shown himself out for the
team and not for personal glory

very sure to play a star role for
the Browns In the chase down the
stretch for the pennant.
He has started his squirt at a most
opportune time. 1t may result In
bringing the Browns the pennant-
No one, no matter Of what scope
Of imagination, can picture what tho
st. Louis folk will do IL the Browns
win. 1t would be their first pennant
in the American League, organized
in 1900.
And. II Ken" comes through with
home-run leadership? Well. the folks
will be giving more than watches
away. They already have handed
watches to every member of the
team. you know. which gives an idea
OF how much they think Of the
Browns right now.

The annon >ment that cad
dies in Chicago have been try
ing to blackmail golfers by
threatening to expose the prac-
tice of cheating in their scores
ought to cause a riot among
the members Of more than one
golf club.
One Of the most difficult
things to teach some golfers is
the art Of counting. When a
player gets up to six or seven
strokes It is a very easy mat
ter to start to count backwards.
Many a match has been won
by players who use the simple
method Of making their oppo-
nents announce their score first.
