RACE FOR LEAD
IN 2 LEAGUES
Is. VERY CLOSE
Pirates and Cardinals, For
mer Champs. Battle Furi.
Ously For Top HonOrs
(By The Associated Prcss)


A three-cornercd battle for the
lead in one league and duel for the
top in another provided the fans with
plenty OF drama in their baseball to-
day.
At Pittsburgh the Pirates and Car
dinals--world champions respectively
in 1925 and 1926--hayc been battling
furiously. The Cards held the league
lead this morning, the Giants being
second, the Pirates third.
The race in the American League
grew closer when the Yankees lost
and the Athletics came within strik-
ing distance Of the hard smuggling
leaders.
Cards Beat Pirates
Batting power carried the Cards to
an 8 to victory over the Pirates
yesterday, although three Pittsburgh
errors helped. With two triples for
two runs, frankie Frisch led the bat
ting attack.
Jesse Haincs had the rival bats
men paralyzed and he chalked up his
fifth win of the season.
Throwing off the Brooklyn Indian
sign with mighty effort in the
ninth and extra 10th, the Giants took
the upgrade again after dropping
Three SLIdIHnL HuIncS 10 tue RODlUS
Jumbo Elliott took the showers in
the ninth under a storm of hits that
brought in three Giant runs and tied
the count, j to 3.
LindstrOm came home with the
winning run in the extra frame.
Gehrig Gets Sixth Homer
The first was the winning inning
for the Senators in their games with
the Yankees. In that single session
they pounded out seven runs and
chased Ruether and Shawkey to the
club house. After that they didn't
score, but they didn't need to, as the
Yanks could make but four runs de-
spite Lou Gehrig's sixth homer
which sent him into tie with Ruth,
his team mate, for circuit smuggling
hOnOrs.
A fine chance for the Athletics to
tie the Yanks in the percentages was
lost when rain interrupted their
game with the Red SoX in the third
with the Mack men leading, to /.
Both Chicago teams found their
opponents easy. the Cubs routing the
Reds, Ii to 8, with an eight-run rally
in the third, and the White SOx re-
Stunning their interrupted string Of
victories by walloping the Tigers, !
to s.
Another old favorite came to the
fore in the Browns Ii to route Of
the Indians, as Sisler stole home in
the fifth in rally which gave his
team six of it's runs.

featherwcight, fell victim to pneu-
monia, passing on after q few days
illness.
In the gray dawn of December
morning in 1925, the body of Bat
Ting Sikh, Senegalesc light-heavy-
weight boxer and former champion,
was found in New York's "Hells
Kitchen" district. Sikh had been
stabbed in the back. 1t was sem
sational end to spectacular career.
Greb's Death Unexpected
Last October, saw the passing in
Atlantic City of one of Kingdom s
most colorful fighters-Harry Greb.
Greb had held both the American
light-hcavy and worlds middle
weight championships. Greb seldom
trained for a fight but the Pitts
burgh "Windmnl" was always in
condition.
Greb, like Villa, died in a hos
pital where he had gone to have
an operation on his nose. It was
considered minor operation, but
Greb failed to rally.
Jimmy Delaney, St. Paul light
heavyweight, died last March from
an infection resulting from an arm
injury in bout at Buffalo shortly
before.
Clever Sencio, another Filipino,
whom many experts predicted would
take the place once occupied by
Villa, died in Milwaukee after a
battle with Bud Taylor, Terre Haute
bantam. and considered in many
quarters the king of the division.
Sencio proved no match for the hard
hitting Taylor, taking terrific pun
ishment. He died the day after the
fight. frankie Jerome, New York
bantam, died in 1924 after a bout
with Taylor.

ing of Young Corbett and Aurelio
Herrera, two famous "little fellows"
of the ring, within two days of each
other on the Pacific coast recently,
calls attention to the fact that the
final "tcn" has been tolled over an
unusually large number Of pugilists
in the last few years.
Champions, near-champions and
former kings Of the squared circle
have been counted out. Two met
tragic deaths, one died from pun
ishment received in the ring and
another as the result of an injury in
bout. Others died from natural
causes.
Early one morning some three
years ago Bill Brennan, tough
heavyweight, trial horse, was shot
and killed by gunner in his New
York cafe. The shooting followed
an alteration after most Of the late
stragglers had departed.
Held Dempsey for IL Rounds
Brennan gained prominence in
1920 by holding Jack Dempsey, then
champion, virtually even through II
fierce rounds in Madison Square
Garden. In, the twelfth, however,
Dempsey knocked Brennan out.
Not long after Brennan's passing
Billy Miske, also a heavyweight
trial horse" succumbed at his
home in st. Paul to an extended ill
ness. Like Brennan, Miske also
had been kayoed by Dempsey, go
ing down in three rounds in 1920.
Two years ago Pancho Villa,
flashy little Filipino and king of the
flyweights, died in California hos
pital while on the operating table.

had never before visited, stopped at

necessary "road" information.

"but the route is kind of involved,
and 1 guess I had better ride along
with you"
For what seemed miles the little
car travelled. Finally in front of an
isolated farm house the passenger
broke the silence with:
probably had better ask in here.
There are one or two roads to the
same place, but we want to take the
best one"
So saying, the passenger in ques-
ton alighted. Five minutes passed,
then 10, Is and 20. Finally the mo-
torist, unable to contain himself any
longer, sped away. More miles passed,
but the driver was too angry to mind
the rough roads. At last another
house loomed into view.
Can you tell me the way to-?"
the driver shrieked.
"Sure," was the answer, "if you let
me draw a map for you. You are
