CUBS ADVANCE FEATURES PLAY Both Philly Teams Enjoy Good Week.. But Fail
 To Rise

NEW YORK, June 15.-With two months of the playing season oyer, only New York and Chicago, in the National league, and New York, Boston and De troit in the American are holding the pace.
 The Giants lead the Cubs by half game, following today's victory over Cincinnati with Chicago idle. Other teams in the league are paired in fights for third, fifth and seventh places. Brooklyn, in third position, is three games removed from the top. Phila- delphia in last is 111a contests back.
 The American league clubs have been more evenly matched and none of the first seven, the last of whom IS only six games behind. New York, can be considered distanced. Philadelphia, victim of F game losing streak early in the season, has recovered and now threatens to make an eight team race.
 Continuation of strong play by the Cubs, who have won six of their eight eastern games and rapid advances by the Indians and White Sox, marked last weeks play. The drive of the youthful Cubs carried them into first place which the Giants regained, how ever, by winning yesterday and today.
 Three games back of the Reds, in fourth place, Pittsburg holds fifth place by point over Boston which was victimized by Chicago.
 The worlds champions, with Waite Hoyt pitching two wining games in a return to form, gained on their rivals during the week and scored directly against the Tigers by taking three of the four game series.
 Boston, losing two of three to Chi cago and splitting with Cleveland, fell full game back of the Yankees by losing today to Detroit, which it now leads by one contest. The White Sox spurt carried that team into first di- vision and within two games of the Tigers today.
 The weeks major league total of games won and lost, run, hits, errors, opponents runs and home runs, includ- ing games of Saturday, follows:

AMERICA HAS SPRINT STARS Sam Keane Declares U. s. We'll Represented To
 Defend Crown
By TOM KEANE Olympics Distance Coach

BOSTON, June 15.--After seeing the final Olympic trials at Harvard sta dium Saturday one realizes the fact that we are well prepared to protect our title as the greatest athletic country in the world.
 The sprinters are wonderful lot So much 50, in fact, that we need have no more fear on their account. Our greatest niilers look very much better than we had dreamed of. The half mile was the greatest race the writer has ever seen at that distance.
 The day seemed little heavy for Walters, but it would not be surpris- ing to see him run in the 1,500 meters In the latter distance we seem to be about as we'll off, if not better, than ip former years.
 In running. the 5000 meters, Joie Ray used excellent judgment, for he is far from himself at his favorite dis tance as yet. He may come around, however, after the rest he will receive on the trip across the Atlantic.
 In the five and ten thousand meters, America is'not so good and it is doubt full whether she will score heavily in these. events. .t. 
 For four men to clear thirteen feet in the pole vault was a feat never equalled before and it bodes ill for our opponents. Our high jumpers seem to De keeping pace with the other field men.
 While the distance in the hammer throw was not up to the winners pre- vious performances, there is no doubt but that he will find himself.
 Our broad jumpers are better than ever and Hubbard is practically un- beatable and is sure to do twenty-five feet. .'s,
 And who can beat that quartet of shot putters? To think that a man, cannot qualify with a put of 47 feet three inches! It is something unheard of before.
 In the javelin we are weak. The men did not come up to expectations

POTAFEU WINS
 FRENCH DERBY

CHANTILLY, France, June 10. The Jockey club stakes ''The French Derby" was second and Shah Potafeu. Canape was second and Shah Abdas third. Old Chum, owned by Guillermo Hams, trained by Juan Torterolo, of Argentina, and ridden by the Argen- tine jockey, D. Torterolo, one. of fa- vorites to win the race, ran unplaced. The son of Spearmint was never prom inent in the running.
 The race proved another victory for the United States, notwithstanding that the winner is owned by Prince Aga Khan, of India. Potafeu was trained by William Duke, and ridden by Guy Garner, both Americans. The colt was five to one in the betting. There were seventeen starters. Old Chum was quoted at to 1.
 The smart walking costumes of the women made of reps and kasha, dis played nothing which had not been seen at Longchamps :nd Saint Cloud this season. The footwear of the women, however, showed all shades of color. The heels were lower. than usual. Many of the shoes even veered to sandal effects. Several women wore white kid shoes as the forerunners of the Deauville season but they seemed to be strangely out of place among the gorgeously colored footwear.
 A lizard skin shoe, either all grey or trimmed with black and as supple as a glove, attracted much attention. There also were to be seen black and brown kid shoes, fastened at the side with a buckle or fancy button, with white or colored trimmings to match the dress of the wesrers. There were Buckles everywhere, made of all sorts of material-leather, wood, steel, rhinestones and colored stones in com posite paste-which caused the eyes of thousands of spectators to be almost constantly levelled toward the ground.

BARON TOSSERS
 BATTERED HARD
New Orleans Pelicans Make Clean Sweep
 During Week

MEMPHIS, Tenn, June 15-Larry Gilbert's speedy Pelicans, of New Or- leans, who were five and half games behind the league leading Memphis Chickasaws, in the Southern Associa- tion standing column a week ago, to- night had cut the distance to one and a half games, and showed no signs of slackening their pace.
 Winning a doubleheader today, the Pelicans came through the week with nine victories and no defeats. In two weeks they have gained seven and q half games on the league leaders.
 Nashville has busted Atlanta from third place, while Mobile, Birmingham, Little Rock and Chattanooga, forming the second division in the order named, did not change their relative standing, although in actual figures, both Little Rock and Chattanooga gained points during the week.
 Having taken the measure of the Chickasaws for four straight games during the past week, the Pelicans will invade Memphis Wednesday for a five game series with the Chicks.
 The Pelicans led the league in prac- tically every department of the game
 
 game, they had scored 3S runs, and had driven out 71 hits in seven starts, the best offensive record for the league they made only six errors and allowed opponents but 20 runs. Nashville, in defense, shaded the Pelicans slightly, making but four errors in six games and letting opponents down with 16 runs.
 Atlanta in six games, including Sat urday's, made 36 runs on 64 hits, but allowed opponents 2 runs.
 Included in the New Orleans string of victories were four over Memphis. These defeats for the Chickasaws ac- counted for the fact that for the third week of the season they lost more games than they won. The Chicks made 35 runs on 6S hits in seven games, including Saturdays, but their opponents scored 31 runs, 24 of which were made by New Orleans.
 Little Rock displayed signs of throw ing off the iinx which has pursued the Travellers since the third week of the season, for the first week since that time their victories outnumbered their defeats. Chattanooga, for the second week during the season got as good as an even break.
 Mobiles slump is reflected in the fact that in eight games, including Saturdays, the Bears made IS errors, while Birmingham's reverses are traced to ineffective pitching rather than er- TOTS. The Baron twirlers were found for forty runs in five games, including Saturdays. Mobile had 52 men left on base, the highest figure for the week.
 Including Saturdays games. eleven home runs were scored during the week. Paschal, of Atlanta, and Wade of Memphis, each got two in one day. Lebourveau of Nashville got two dur ing the week.
 The weeks play, including Satuf- days games, follows:

EASTERN STARS
 LEAD OLYMPICS
Mott, McGrath And Pad dock Only Returning
 Champions

CAMBRIDGE June 15.-Athletic stars of the east surpassed their rivals from other sections of the country and carried off nearly half of the places on the American Olympic track and field team, analysis of the selections tonight showed.
 The Atlantic seaboard gained 49 of the 102 places while the, middlewest ac- counted for 32 and the far west IS. The south scored only three times.
 College performers carried off the honors in the rivalry with club stars by a margin of 54 to A, with four school boys and service representative also on the list. .sr

McGrath, who won the hammer throw in 1912 and Charley Paddock, 100 metre victor in 1920, are the only members who have held Olym- pic championships.
