DAVIS TO SIT IN WITH
ALL WESTERN LEADERS

CHICAGO, Aug. 2s.-Perhaps the
most important Democratic cam.
paign war pow.wow to be held since
John w. Davis accepted the Presi-
Dental nomination will occur here
next week when the candidate
passes through on his first Western
tour, it was learned today at local
headquarters.
If Mr.. Davis has time he will sit
in with the party leaders from
nearly every State West Of the
Alleghenies. He is expected here
the day after his scheduled speech
at Wheeling on Labor Day. Re-
ports on political conditions from
every State will be considered by
the conferees. Key points at which
the candidate will deliver his most

BATTLING MATS
ON EDGEFOR
N.Y..YANKS
Zachary Is Likely to Oppose
Pennock In Opener of
Critical Series

NEW YORK, Aug. 2S.-With an
advantage of only half game in
their hold on first place, the New
York Yankees, world champs, meet
the Washington battlers here this
afternoon in the first Of a four
game series that may decide the
fight for the 1924 American League
pennant.
The Yankees, who could do no
better yesterday than break even
in a double header with the fifth
place Cleveland Indians, must win
at least two of the contests in
order to hold their slender margin
over the Senator's.
Indications were that Manager
Higgins of the Yankees and Stanley
Harris of the Senators would throw
left handlers, strong in recent con-
tests, into the battle for first blood.
Herb Pennock, whose recent re-
turn to form checked a sudden
Yankee descent, was picked for the
Yankees, and Zachary was believed
ready to start for the visitors.

Judge Fixes Date for Sentence

CRIMINAL COURT, CHICAGO,
Aug. 28.-Nathan F. Leopold, jr.,
and Richard A. Loeb, the intel
lectual young collegians who slew
Bobby Franks "for a thrill" will
be informed on September 10
whether they will pay with their
lives on the gallows or with life
times in prison for that weird
crime.
Judge John r. Caverly fixed
this date today at the conclusion
of the famous case, which has
occupied nearly six weeks and at
tracted more attention than any
other crime in modern times.
On that date "Dicky" and
Babe" their attorneys, and their
relatives will gather again in the
somber old courtroom to hear
their fate. And no one else will
be admitted on that date, Judge
Caverly warned in making his
announcement from the, bench.
Judge Rebukes Grove.
An otherwise drab conclusion TO
the famous trial was enlivened by
a singing rebuke which Judge
Caverly administered to States At
torney Robert E. Grove as soon
as the hard-bitted prosecutor had
spoken his final word in favor of
the death penalty.
Grove had referred to the testi.
mony Of Detective Sergeant James
J. Cortland, in which the officer
quoted Leopold as saying months
ago that he could plead guilty be.
