IL of June. At that time the
Chicago White Sox challenged the
New York Yankees for the lead. A
one game margin separated them.
New York proceeded to assert it's
class, won three of the four games
and sent the Sox into slump from
which Schalk's club has never
emerged. since that time the
American League race has simply
been a procession, with the Yanks
so far out in front they appear to
be in another league.
The Yankees should have no
trouble in winning 100 games if
Manager Higgins keeps his lineup
intact and does no experimenting.

manding advantage.
While the lead of the Cubs is but
five games, that margin should
prove sufficient to put McCarthy's
team over. However, there is at
least an outside chance for one of
the other three clubs in the running
to go over.
The Cubs are a young team
under a very severe strain and
there is always possibility of a
youthful club cracking as it comes
down the stretch hard pressed.

q REGULATOR, n. Y. August "a
Gene Tunney expects to leave
his training camp here for Chi
~ cago near the end of the month,
and he will travel either by
automobile or train. The exact date of
the champions departure is uncer-
tain, but he doesn't intend to desert
the mountain country until the lat
est possible date.
Asked if he had considered the trip
to Chicago by airplane, the means
by which he reached Philadelphia
last year, Tunney said there was no
need for that.
This fight isn't important enough"
he added.
Billy Gibson. the champions mana
ger. tried to get Gene to leave here
in few days. but that request was
turned down fatty. Tunney likes the
mountain air with its pine tang from
the thousands of trees that dot the
surrounding countryside. The cham
pion never has liked to work before
crowds, and that has influenced his
decision to stay in seclusion as long
Z s possible.
Gene put on nine rounds of box
ing yesterday, five with the light
bags and four with his partners.
Although he withheld severe punish
ment to Paul Cavalier and Billy Vi
dabeck. both were victims of a rapid
fire of punches that sent them Keeling
around the ring. The champion was
like a flash in his hitting, accurate
and strong.
Cavalier stung Gene at the start of
their miX-up, but the title-holder went
right on after his man, hooking and
crossing and landing series after series
Of blows before his sparring partner
could even set himself for the at
tack Although Cavalier was careful
he was speared at will, and in the
half -clinches Tunney drove force
fully to the body with both fists. His
speed was so bewildering that it was
almost impossible to keep track of
the blows.
Tunney was studying his punches
more when he faced Nidabeck. He
did not set out after his opponent in
the same manner that marked his
workout with Cavalier. He would
hit and counter, with the result that
Vidabeck was wholly unable to pene-
trate Genes defense. A lightning
left lab and a right cross stunned
Vidabeck in the second round. The
jab was used high to the head ana
the cross lower to the body.
