the
Vapors
For Catarrh
and Colds

To relieve catarrh or check a
head cold, melt a little Vicks in
a spoon and inhale the vapors
of Camphor, Menthol. Eucalyp-
tus, Thyme and Turpentine.
Also put a little in each nostril
and snuff well back UP the head.
Another way is to heat a tin
cup. put in a teaspoonful of
Vicks and inhale the vapors that
way. AS fast as the vapors lose
their strength, throw out the
melted Vicks and add fresh.
Millions of mothers find Nicks
the ideal remedy for Group and
children's colds because it not
only brings quick relief but
avoids dosing delicate little
stomachs with so much medt-
cine.

LEO DUROCHER IS SOLD
 TO NEW YORK YANKEES
TIashN, 10 Year Old Shortstop of Hartford Eastern League Club,
 Makes Big Impression.

Hartford, July 2S-- Leo Durocher of West Springfield, l9 year old shortstop of the Hartford Senators, has been bought by the New York Yankees and will be turned over 10 the American League club at the end of the season.
 Like d fairy tale reads the account of the baseball career of this young fielding flash who was summoned to Hartford just one day before the season opened to fill in at shortstop until later Qualifications were re- ccivod. Durocher had already been sent back home after brief trial with a few other Springfield boys but the last minute release of one of the infield recruits left shotstop open the day before the Senators went to Bridgeport 10 start the sea son.
 Durocher made a hit with Park City fans the first day out, especial fly those who knew he was playing the first league game of his life. The youngstcr continued all through the season 10 glitter at shortstop. 1 He has never struck hitting stride but appears as such a promis- ing player both tho Chicago Cubs and the Yankees went after him, the New York club offering the most Durochcr at bat puts his foot 1T the bucket" and this appears to b' his hitting handicap, but there fl plenty of chance to correct thi fault.
 Durocher has made himself popu lar with Hartford fans.
 The amount paid by the Yankee
 for Durocher was not made public

N&Y NEA SERNICEl

New York, July 23,-I'rom pres ent indications new home run record for the major leagues is almost certain thing this season Fact is. that nothing short Of an earthquake can prevent is estab lishmcnt
 With tn" campaign little more than passed the halfway mark over zoo circuit drives have been made in the two big loops. And lnas- much as the present record stands at 1,u54, only few more than 300 additional homcrs are needed in the rest of the 1925 season to shatter the major league mark hung up by the New York Yankees in 1921,
 Thus, if the sIuggcrs in the American and National can pound out slightly more than half as many four pliers from now until the end of the season than they did in the initial half, new record is assured. When the present mark was made four years ago, the older league turned in 53O home runs, the younger 524, That was the cam paign in which Babe Ruth accom- plished the unbelievable by banging out 59 four baggers across d sea sons stretch.
 That year the Philies compiled 116 homerS, the club record to date At Inc halfway point this season. the Giants were showing their heels 10 the rest of the crowd with '77 II they adhere to the pace set ir the initial 75 lilts they should exec the Philly performance by goodl margin.
 Statistics show that there was { decided drop in the home rm column in 1924 total of SS; being accrued. In 1928, 979 homer were made,
 This year, however the swat smiths, as mentioned, arc massag!nl the agate with more vchemcnc than ever in the history oG baseball and unless the dope is all wrong new major league record will | established.

New York, July % tPl-Thc New York Giants today took inc road for a three weeks trip which is eX- pected 10 offer the champions their most severe test Of the season.
 A gour-gamc series in Boston starting today Will be followed by swing through the west where the pacemakers last month lost their tight grip on first place after open ing the campaign with a rush. Nine games out Of seventeen were drop ped by New York in their last west ern invasion, but the club recovered its winning stride in the home stand, dropping only five out Of thirteen starts.
 The Giants maintain their slight margin over the Pirates yesterday in another day of idleness through out the circuit, rain forcing post ponement of all contests Pittsburgh had a margin of four runs over the Phillies, to g, when a downpour lessdrove both clubs from the dia rnond in the fifth. A new assault on first place will be made by the Cor sairs, beginning today in a home series with St. Louis Cardinals, who have thus far been able 10 take but two games out of eleven from Me kechnie's cohorts.
 American league teams. granted holiday by the schedule yesterday, are due back on the diamond to- day.

 Pitchers Records

 Tn the American league there are II pitchers with records of one hi' or less per inning, and of the clever eight are veterans of many seasons The National league has nine pitch CTS with an average of one hit or jes per inning. and only two of thcs' are youngsters.

 Sam Gray of Philadelphia. Buck eye of Cleveland and Stoner of De- troit. are three younger twIrers in the American league who are crowdlng the veterans for honors. In the National league Reinhart of St Louis and Benton of Boston are the youngsters ranking high.
 Covcleskie and Marberry of Wash ington are not far behind their great team mate in effectiveness and Dutch Reuther of the Senators is also averaging one hit per inning
 Danforth and Mogridgo of St. Louis. Dauss of Detroit, and Herb Pennock of the New York Yankees are the other American league pitchers who can hold the opposition 10 one hit per inning,
 The Giants have two of the lead ing effectives in the National league Jack Scott and Virgil Barnes. So have the Chicago Cubs, Percy Jones and Tony Kaufman. "Dazzy" Vance of Brooklyn. and Pete Donohue Of Cincinnati. are the other veteran sharpshootcrs in the National league.
 Other branches of the records show that these same pitchers lead in other methods of fooling batters, Vance being far in the leading in both leagues in strike-outs, with 137, compared with Johnson's 62.
