read to the effect that a bride in the

kneading bread with her gloves on.
The editor, Selling upon the Oppor-

Denver, Colo. Oct. 25.-The regu-

Neither the written nor spoken word
can fully portray the scenes of

In Yokohama>the death toll was the
greatest from the Quakes. The num-
Der of lives crushed out by falling
debris will never be known. Many
pinned beneath wreckage undoubtedly
were not dead when the flames crept
upon them. This is borne out by the
known cases of persons rescued while
the terrible agony of being burned
alive was not far distant.
The loss of lives in the quake was
undoubtedly vast. but the terrible

GIANTS CLING TO
FIRST PLACE IN
SPITE OF LOSSES
Cincinnati Reds Fail to Take
Advantage of Opportunity
to Advance,
BY HENRY FARRELL
limited Press Sports Editor

NEW YORK, Sept. 3.--W1th one
more week passed and their troubles
still with them, the New York Giants
are still clinging to first place in the
National League with three fingers.
Only the failure OF the Cincinnati
Reds to take advantage of several
falls sustained by the worlds cham
pions last week permitted the Giants
to remain in possession Of their slim
lead. While McGraws team was
slumping and losing, the fighting
Moran club suffered the same ailment
and the Pittsburgh Pirates fell clear
out Of the running with a very bad
week.
The Giants were only able TO split
even in six games last week, but that,
as poor as It was, bettered accomplish
ments of the Reds and Pirates. The
Cincinnati contenders lost three out
of Ave games and the Pittsburgh
bunch won only one game in five
starts.
The Reds held the low mark for the
week, when they scored only Il runs
and the Pirates were only a little bet
ter with 10 runs.
The st. Louis Cards and the Boston
Braves played the best ball Of the
week. the Cards winning 4 out of 5
and the Braves coping out Of 6.
It was the poor luck Of the Giants
to run into the Braves just when Fred
Mitchell Is getting pitching from sew
eral good youngsters and when he has
his club going at Top speed
The Giants will set out soon for
their last trip OF the season and Nc
Graw has hopes he will be able to snap
his team out Of It, He changed his
lineup again Sunday by removing
young Travis Jackson, who has been
in a hitting slump. and sending Groh
! back to third base. Groh IS in poor
condition to play with bad leg.
/ The New York Yankees continue
their runaway in the American League
and nothing can stop them from get
| ting into the world series.

mere ISM [ any Such man.
While the champion is at the peak
of his strength, there always is some
young chap coming along who will
some day put him out.
Dempsey landed on my chin in a
breakaway in the first round of our
tight at Toledo, and from then on
was in a daze. I don't know what
happened, except what spectators
ted me.
He Can Be Shaken
But it seems that I landed one on
MIN in the next round which nearly
put him out. except that I wasn't
able to finish him. That would show
that he can be hit and can be shaken.
The best asset a fighter can have,
I think. is a good left hand. That
comes in always 70 stab the first rush
of the other mans attack. Dempsey
certainly has such a left hand, but
with his distinctive style of swaying
from side to side. he makes unusual
use Of both hands.
His blows are hooks instead of
clean, straight shots. But they are
dangerous.
dSly OlIUtlSs JAd1 AAlttCA
Jack Dempsey is fast and strong.
and he hits hard. I don't want to
tell anybody that he isn't formidable
There are points to his disadvantage,
though, which ought to be considered
in figuring the odds.
First of all. he is champion. That
is a burden to carry into the ring,
even though it makes him a favOrite
In popular judgment.
The champion is worried at the
thought OF the stake ne has to lose.
My mind kept gong back to that
when I had the title, and it is natural
tor anyone.
Champs Grow Careless
Then. being the champion, he is
surrounded BY crowd. and that is
hard for steady training. I don't mean
training just before the fight. But
champions grow careles.
The glimmer of the lights saps their
power. Dempsey has had few fights
In his four years with the title. A
nan needs at least TWO fights a year
% keep in condition, and three or four
wouldn't hurt him.
The best man 7 ever fought was
Jack Johnson. I'd like for anyone to
name a single quality he lacked for a
perfection when he was in his prime.
He had everything. JohnsOn's best
was better than the best of either
Dempsey or F1rpC.
Ny advice to Firpo is to be careful
with Dempsey the first two. or three
rounds. Dempsey makes a lightning
start, but I don't think he can go for
a long grind.
Be a stone wall to Dempsey's
charge. Then knock him out-if you
can
