HITTSBURGH'S dash for the
- elusive lead in the National
League scramble had become
/ sufficiently bolstered today for
the Pirate cohorts to take
nap without danger of awakening to
find their entry knocked off the PIN
nacle.
But even so, the Buccaneers had
only time to grab an extra wink. The
jaunty world champions fell victims
at the Pittsburgh rendezvous yester-
day by to 3, while the Reds were
adding to the woes of the Cubs, with
a 5-to.0 whitewashing.
That gave the Corsairs full game
lead on Chicago, enabling them to
end the week in the lead regardless
of today's games.
While Pilot Bush of the Pirates and
Pilot Mccarthy of the Cubs seem to
have decided that the championship
will be purely a family affair betwixt
Pittsburgh and Chicago. the fourth
place New Workers. are only two and
one-half games from the crest and
one percentage point from the third
place st. Louis gang. The GIANTS
who have won seven straight, had an
open date yesterday.
Five Games in a Row.
Pittsburgh has won five straight
while Chicago has had as many losses
in a row.
Alexander the Great could not stop
the Pirates and was biffed for Is hits
although he frightened up at critical
times, preventing heavy scoring. kay
Kremer stopped the champions with
nine safe raps.
Rabbit Meanwhile, formerly of the
sandlots Of Springfield, Mass; Pitts
burgh, Chicago, Brooklyn and Boston
National League clubs, and dorchester
Interna tionals, made his initial start
with the Cardinals at shortstop.
At Cincinnati jake gave out three
measly singles to the Cubs. His op
ponent, Percy Jones, got into trouble
in the fourth inning by walking three
batters, which, coupled with two boots
by his mates. gave the Reds four
run lead.

The Braves scalped the Robins by
8 to 2 to resume sixth place in the
standing, Farrell's single in the ninth
driving Welsh across the plate with
the winning run.
Ruth and Gehrig Do Ii.
The Yanks maintained their heavy
gait by thrashing the Athletics. IL
to 2, swapping Walberg and Gray
with 20 hits. Gehrig amassed two
homers for a total Of 43. and Ruth
belted one, his forty-fourth.
Nineteen players were used by the
White Sox, but to no avail, as the
Indians dashed off with a 7-to-6 vic
tory. Johnny Mostil made his first
appearance of the year with the pallid
hose, running for Grouse in the sew.

CASTOR vanquished Lii Stoner in a
pitchers duel which CASTOR settled
with a single on top of Williams

his much discussed double barreled
vocabulary in conversation yesterday
with newspaper men.
A reporter, seeking to put the inter
view on an erudite level, inquired:
IT'S training for boxing conducive to

Ideals" replied the worlds heavy

That was all. Tunney seemed to
regard the interrogation as adequately

nj Sande now must go 1t alone"
| VI Mrs. Marion Casey Sande.
/ wife of the noted jockey, died
at Saratoga Springs yesterday,
and today friends told the story of her
illness-health undermined by val
liant effort to be diet "pacemaker" to
keep the jockey down to weight after
his spill on the track at Saratoga
four years ago.
Sande was caught under the horse
in the fall. He would never ride again
the wise ones said, as the jockey lay
in a plaster cast in a hospital for
months.
But his wife was beside him daily,
and told him that he certainly would
ride again. With recuperation came
the task of keeping down to weight
112 pounds. Sande was no longer the
7O-pound boy who ran away from his
fathers farm at American Falls,
Idaho, when he was 16 years old, in
1918.

points out, "he planted not only the
first grapevine In California, but also
the roots OF vast industry. The be
nign franciscan padre could hardly
be expected TO know that from that
little shoot of grapevine would sprout
an Industry worth 350,000,0O0 with
employment for 100000 persons.
"Father Serra's original vine still
grows" the writer continues, I'm the

largest grapevine in the world Eight

twisted trunk filings long, winding
arms over trellis that covers an

Arnold's High Mark

One of the high spots in the career
Of Benedict Arnold came at the sec
Ond battle OF Saratoga. Arnold de-
spised Gen. Horatlo Gates, and did
not hide his contempt. SO Gates put
him under arrest for characterization,
and he was confined In small room
Of farmhouse behind the American
lines In charge of sentry.
When the battle broke out Arnold
scented the situation and evaded his
guard, leaped upon a horse and led
the attack that carried the British
entertainments. The field OF Saratoga
Is well marked, and where Arnold
penetrated Burgoyne's trenches stands
a gray granite monument On II Is
carved a cavalryman's jackboot, with
the spur broken Off. The marker
bears no comment and no name, but
It points the hlgh.water level OF Ar.
nold's career.
