Bottomley Is Slugger
There is Sunny Jim Bottemley,
who hit three triples in one day
triples that the sluggers say are
harder to get than home runs be-
cause they have to run EN- out. At
one time Jim led the league in home
runs, triples and doubles and in runs
scored.
The showing Of the Red Birds
since mid-May has paralleled that of
the worlds championship Cardinal
outfit Of 1926, which in successive
road trips checked in with a record
Of something like 10 victories in IS
starts and nine victories in IL starts,
respectively. In it's first month
long road trip this year the Nc
Kechnie machines rolled up a record
Of FL victories out Of p games
played.
St. Louis fans have accepted the
rest of the season as the mere for
mality Of the Cardinals playing out
their schedules. They consider the
pennant race over. They are think
ing in terms of worlds series.
Their favorites have not as yet con-
structed such an insurmountable
lead as the Yankees have in the
other league, but they have two road
trips to make and road trips to the
Cardinal clubs of recent years have
meant just that many more games

Manager Bill McKechnie, who had
his ups and downs at Pittsburgh, is
fully credited around the senior cir
cult with having engineered the
Cardinals remarkable showing.

Their playing has been well above

Converting Is Typical
This is typical Of the way Nc
Kechnie has been converting bad
breaks into good ones. He ran out

stumbled upon Clarence Mitchell,
who couldn't even make good with

Giants. Then he repeated the trick
two weeks later. Both victories
were extremely timely, especially
the second one, when the Giants. in
second place and threatening to ad-
vance, needed tanning.
The Cardinals manager is cred

league leading Red Birds of St.
Louis are fighting off the opposition
with the effective ferocity of an
eagle defending its lofty perch.
They winged their way to the top
Of the heap and they're going to do
some clawing to stay there. and the
battle thus far has been costly only
to the Cardinals foes.
These fast flying Red Birds are
making good because they've been
getting more than their share of
individual brilliancy and because Of
unexcelled team play. In team bat
ting and team fielding they have
consistently pressed for the lead,
and their pitching as a unit sizes up
as the best in the league.

TEX SAYS GENE
TRAINED CLOSE

Spectator, N. Y, July 16.-R-
Believing himself to be almost at
the peak Of his fighting form, Gene
Tunney decided to omit all boxing
from his training program today. A
few miles Of road work was the only
exercise he was willing to undertake
to fit himself for the defense Of his
worlds heavyweight title against
Tom Heeney, the New Zealand
blacksmith, on July 26 at the YAM
kee stadium.
Richard Admires Layoff
Tunney's decision to forego his
daily ring session with sparring
partners and punching bags followed
close on the heels Of Tex Richards
statement that the champion was q
bit too fine for this stage Of his
training with the titular bout still
ten days away.
Richard saw Tunney work out for
the first time yesterday when he
made his initial visit to Spectator
where Genes secluded training quar-
tiers are located. Richard was ac-
companied by large party Of busi-
ness executives and newspapermen
and the combination made it .
unique occasion.
For their benefit, Gene went
through all his training routine.
emitting only the roadwork, and his
physical appearance as we'll as his
boxing impressed the visitors.
Though Tunney was hit often bv
Harold Mays, his Bayonne, N. j.,
heavyweight sparring partner, the
champion flashed impressively.
Mays caught him with several left
hooks to the head in the first ses.
sion of their three round bout and
one of these blows opened 4 SLIGHT
cut on Genes lower lip.
Gene Smashes Mays
Tunney then settled down to busi-
ness and rushed Mays about at 1
furious rate, landing blows from all
angles. Mays said after the work.
out that Tunney was hitting harder
than ever and was more accurate
than he has been since he started
training for the coming conflict.
Gene weighed 1876 pounds, down
almost to the weight he will carry
when he enters the ring with Hee-
ney, and lost four and a half pounds
during the brisk workout, evidently
this poundage worried the champion
for after he weighed in for the day,
he announced that all boxing was off
until Tuesday afternoon.

When Reuter- managed to get Gen.
Tunney alone for q few minutes, he
seemed to be more inclined to dis
cuss the latest books than his next
battle. Gene was quite frank about
matters. He admits he is in the box
ing game to get what he can out o.
it and then retire and devote himself
to travel, reading and study.
As . type he must be q phenome.

edge.
Likes Hard Training
He said he liked the regime o:
hard training for its own sake, but
that he would be glad when all the
excitement and publicity was over.
There was no trace Of affectation
about him. Speaking in q quiet
pleasant voice Gene told Reuter- Of
his love for the English poets and
essayists. He admitted freely he
was only beginner and often found
them difficult to understand.
He said Shelley, Keats, Lamb and
Hazlitt were his favorites, and
among living writer's George Ber-
nard Shaw. He especially liked
the prefaces to Shaw's works, and
he thought they should be collected
into . book. Tunney expressed a
most keen desire to meet G. B. S.
when he goes to Europe later in the
summer with Thornton Wilder, the
author.
After Tunney's trainer had hustled
the champion to bed Reuter- had q
talk with an artist friend Of Tunney,
who had cone all the way from
Seattle to be with Tunney while he
trains. The artist said he and Tun-
ney never discussed boxing or the
coming fight with Tom Heeney.
Artist Il Companion
He was simply there, the artist
asserted, as . companion to Tunney.
On his walks h. talked to him about
literature and art and read t. him
As Gene fished. He revealed that Tun-
ney's love for the arts was genuine
and sincere, and especially his lik-
ing for good books. He declared
Tunney had mind and views Of his
own and that one Of the reasons for
his unpopularity with some people
was because he was unwilling to
make any concessions to the popu-
lar conception Of what a heavy
weight champion should like and do.
The artist said Tunley was very
sensitive about Lis love for books.
as many American papers have
sneered at lin. The other day. for
instance, some newspaper photog-
raphers discovered Gene sitting on
z rock readi: . q book Of poetry.
They asked i'm to pose and then in
quired what book he was reading
and Gene said "a railway time

Doc Love threw away chance for
q shutout in the first inning Of yes
terday's game, in which Bismarck
trimmed Sanish to l after losing
to the northern crew 6 to 3 Saturday
evening.
With two away and two men on
base, Doc accepted an easy one in
the box from Hungate's bat and
threw it over Eddie Tobin on first,
allowing Jerde to score Sanish's lone
counter.
After giving Big Boy Peterson his
second defeat of the season, the
Grays are all set for Wednesday
nights game with Mandan, the
game which marks the dedication Of
the city ball park to the city park
commission by the combined city
service clubs.
Love Pitches Well
Doc pitched his incest game of the
season yesterday, allowing only six
well-scattered singles. He made the
only two errors for Bismarck, how
ever, making two overthrows on first
base.
Big Boy Peterson had lost to only
Parshall before yesterday, but he al
lowed nine hits in his eight innings
to the Bismarck clan.
Duckie Guidas, Gray catcher, was
the smuggling star Of the two-game
series, getting four doubles in eight
trips to the plate. The Illinois catch
er just found his batting eye Satur-
day. Love got two singles in his
four trips Saturday and scored one
run. Tobin hi: safely twice yester-
day in four attempts but was able to
clout only one in four trips yester-
day.
After spotting Sanish the one run
in the first, Bismarck came back to
score two in their half and scored
one each in the second, third, and
fifth frames.
Heidi Is Wild
Though George Heidi allowed
Sanish only seven bingles Saturday
night, he let them get five in the
disastrous third which accounted for
three runs. One Of the hits in the
third was triple by Pennington.
The Grays scored three runs in
the first inning, only to go score
less for the next six frames because
Of Joe Days tight pitching.
Guidas got two doubles in four
trips Saturday night, and Tobin
clouted out two singles in his four
chances.
Sanish scored again once in the
sixth and twice in the seventh to put
the game on ice.
Day and Birdsbill each got two
safe raps in four trips to the plate.
The Indian battery proved too much
for the Crays in the first encounter.
