men will delay the opponent in get
ting his men into the home table
and make it almost impossible to do
so without leaving a blot.
TN the meantime the player SHOULD
Il start making points in his own
home table, at the same time keep
ing men spread around the table
so that when he is about to take up
one of the opponents men, that man
not only will find it difficult to
enter the players home table but,
having done so, viii find it difficult
to get this man back again to his
own home table without being con-
stantly hit and sent back.
Thus, in delaying his progress lies
the players only hope of winning.
The back game is the most difficult
Of all, and never should be at
tempted by beginner.
A fourth type of game is called
the shut out" 1t is attempted when
a player is able to block three or
more points in his inner table. If
able to hit an opponents blot and
the opponent does not Immediately
get the right throws to enter, the
player sometimes can hurry enough
men around the table to block all
six points in his home table.
The opponent then is completely
shut out and can not enter until the
player gets all his men into the
home table and enough thrown off
or moved up to free a point.

DROBABLY the most frequent
J. policy chosen in playing back
CANNON is the blocking game. This
is much more interesting than the
running game, as it involves Of
fensive as well as defensive tactics.
BY the blocking game we mean
punching a players men together
by blocking consecutive points so
that the opponent will be unable to
pass these men and therefore will
be unable to get his men home.
The blocking game is the only
game that often succeeds in gam
moning the opponent.
The satisfactory points to block
are the points close together on each
side of the players bar. 1t is for
the purpose of the blocking game
that the initial moves were recon-
mended which left blot exposed
on point 5.
When able to form such a block
ade and at the same time get the
two men out of the opponents inner
table, sthere is an excellent chance
for CANNON.
It seldom is wise to take up
many of the opponents blots while
forming this blockade, as more than
three of the opponents men in the
players inner table interfere with
the blockade and make it difficult
for the player to get his own men
into his table and borne of in time
for the CANNON.
1t is when playing blocking game
that a player must be extremely
careful in bearing his men from the
home table when the opponent still
has men in that table. 1t is better
to move up than to leave an odd
man on point 6.
TIME defense against the block
i ing game is the most interest
ing, when well played, of any game
of backgammon. 1t is called the
Back Game.
Wien the opponent has had two
or more good throws and the play
er's throws have been poor back
game should be played. This must
be started early, before the player
has advanced his men too far to-
ward his inner table.
When playing a back game the
two men in the opponents inner
table should be left where they are.
The other men about the board
should be left where they are. The
other men about the board should
be deliberately spread, leaving
blots wherever possible, hoping the
opponent will be obliged to take
them up.
If the player can succeed in get
ting enough of his men sent back
so that he can cover point l and 2
in the opponents home table, these

Happiness
Not Found
in HIeneSS
BY MARTHA LEE

We humans have the most fright
ful habit OF going off ON the widest
goose chases imaginable.
We always are dashing off some
place. looking for happiness, peace
OF mind, contentment, thrills, fun
all those Elusive things that make
life so much more interesting and
worthwhile.
Civilized and intelligent as we are
supposed to be we do chase down
the widest rumors as to where and
how these qualities may be found
and captured for at least a little
while.
The number of humans trying to
run down money confuse some Of
US We begin TO think money must
be the answer to the whole thing
that when they have gotten money
all the rest follows like night and
day. And there is a heart-breaking
number of us who spend our entire
lives trying to solve the problem
that way.
Compensation f0und
A handful are born with the
knowledge that peace of mind,
happiness, contentment and all the
other Elusive things that make life
better and more worthwhile are
found in a very simple way. The
solution is to keep busy all our walk
ing hours doing things for others.
Happiness and all happiness play
mates are funny little fellows. They
bring us most when we are doing
things for other people besides our
selves.
The woman who is giving all her
patience. time, energy and strength
10 rearing a family has plenty of
hard times and worries enough to
bow the shoulders Of ten women, but
she has so many compensations for
her trouble. She has so many
moments of unexpected pleasure
and happiness.
Encouragement Needed
You always can tell by the look in
a persons eye whether or not they
have learned this homely little truth
about happiness. A selfish, self
conferred persons always looks with
a searching eye upon everything and
every one. Looking for happiness
always has been an excuse for for
eign travel to us.
Somehow We seem never to realize
that it might be found just by
stretching out our hands to help
some one. Maybe it's just some one
next door or around the corner.
Maybe it's just some little child who
needs q kind word or young boy or
girl who needs a little boost. Or a
man or woman who needs encour-
agement.
Happiness Disrupted
Take an inventory of all your
friends and acquaintance. Try to
choose, out of the whole group, the
man or woman who is happiest. In
variably it will be the man or
woman who is busiest doing con-
structive work; whose mind is filled
with other peoples problems; whose
day is occupied for the ultimate in
terest of others.
An idle wife is a mans worst in
Vestment. She can stir up more
trouble, make more expense, dis
rupt more happiness than a failure
and bankruptcy every year.
Too many men have as their ideal
a heaven in which they will be able
to hire some one to do all the work
for their wives. They have as their
goal a position with an income
which will allow their wives to sit
back, take it easy and be as idle
as they choose.
The man who plans that is plan
ming his own doom. An idle wom-
an. because she doesn't know what

LIGHTWEIGHT TITLE
 BACK IN NEW YORK
Al Singer Scores Sensational
 Knockout Over Mandell

New York, July 1 8 Pf-The crown of the iightweishts today adorns .hc thick black thatch of dynamic 21- year-old Al Singer, whose sensation al one-round knockout of Sammy Mandell in Yankee Stadium last night brought back the 135 pound championship to New York for the first time since Benny Leonard re- tired.
 The boy from the Bronx and pro- tege of Leonard crushed Mandell. one-time sheik of Rockford, H., and champion for the past four years, in exactly one minute and 46 sec onds
 Singer. with a ripping, slashins rush that swept the slim, dark Ita!- ian before him, floored Mandell four times for successive counts of two, seven, four and ten. The champion, after absorbing a terrific batterins, with blood dripping from his mouth and nose, a glassy stare in his eyes, toppled over at the finish and took the final count flat on his back.
 Mandell did not land a solid punch nor more than two or three light left jabs, he was punched into a state of helplessness before he had time to make even a gesture and before the crowd of some 25.ob0 fans had time to catch their collec- tive breath.
 It was the shortest lightweight title fight in history and one of the quickest knockouts in any champion shp fight since Terry McGovern swarmed over Pedlar Palmer to win in something like half minute some thirty years ago
 Singers spectacular victory came as a shock even to the experts who had established the New York youth favorite though it may not have been surprising to the gentleman with the wise money" who were reported just before the fight to be wagering to 1 on the challenger.
 Although his rise has been rapid and impressive, Singer never before had manifested so complete punch ing mastery over a boxer of Man dells acknowledged skill and re- sourcefulness. It was by far .he greatest exhibition Singer ever had given in the ring. The crown,ng climax to little more than three years of professional fighting to7 this scowling thick -shouldercd youngster.
 All that Mandell appeared to have left, after ruling his division since 1926. was superlatiye gameness.
 They fidseted, spared and clinch ed as Referee Arthur Donovan sent them into action. Then, with TO more than 25 or 30 seconds elapse1, |, Singer sluns a left hook that snap ped back Mandell's head and sent the champion down for the first time.
 Up at the count of two without manifesting smartness enough 10 stay down for nine and give his head a chance to clear, Mandcll stepped into a volley Of wallops 70 the head. Backing slowly, trying in vain to check the barrage. the cham- pion took heavy battering before going down again. He half-sprawled over the lower strand of rope, shak- ing his head.

his mouth. Staring, he slowly stag gered to his feet, leaning on the ropes. Singer, who had been dash ing around the ring like caged lion cub, leaped at his foe with another two-fisted drive. Down went the champion for the third time. Again he failed to take full advantage of or the count and clambered up after the knock down mallet hit the can- vas four times. Singer by this time was becoming arm-weary, but Man dell was so far gone that he could scarcely raise his own arms for pro- lection. AS he rolled back into the ropes, a solid right hand smash to the jaw put him down and out He fell with thud and it was all over.
 Mandell won the lightweight title from Rocky Kansas in 1926 after two-year period of scramblng in tsle division following Leonard's retire ment.

VITAL ENGAGEMENT
 IN CHURCH LEAGUE
St. Mats and South Church
 Clash This Evening

The championship of the Inter Church baseball league may be de. cided at Willow Brook park this evening when the St. Matthew's German Lutheran and South Con- gregational church hines meet on Diamond No. 2 in a renewal of their friendly but bitter rivalry. The St. Mats, title winners for the past two years, are again in front this year, and, with one victory over the South Church to their credit al- ready, they have two-gane lead on their opponents of the evening. A second win at the expense of the Congreg gationalists who are clingins to second place, will virtually give the Germans another championship for, though at least two other har l games remain on their schedule, the other teams are almost too far back to be considered really dangerous.
 A South Church win, however. will haul the St. Matts back to q point where the Congregational team, by playing off and winning It's two postponed games, can tie for first place and have an easier schedule ahead. Of it than the Ger mans will have. The previous loss to the Germans was by a 7-5 score and came only after hard fought and we'll played game, and the South ctr ,v@ h , ,a,J by knowledge of it's old jinx over the Lutherans, will battle for re- venge. The teams are evenly match ed and have no weakness in any position. Billy Preisser is expectel to pitch for the St. Matts and Wll- ton Mercy for the South church. The game is set for 6:45 o'clock.
 The other games will bring two of the other four contenders up against tail-end teams. The St.. Marks Episcopal outfit, which final ly climbed out of the cellar on Mon day night. will attempt to stop the Trinity Methodists in game on Diamond No. l and. with the im- provement 1t has been showing Of late, may furnish an upset.
 The St. Johns German Luther ans, successors to the St. Marks in the pit, will meet the First Luther ans on the grass diamond" The St. Johns have a better team than their standing in the league indi- cates and may furnish trouble, but the fourth place Swedes expect 10 move along to another win this eve ming.

ORIOLES STRUGGLE
 ID KEEP IN RACE
Baltimore Faces Task of StaYine
 Out Of Fourth Place
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
 Beaten back in four successive jousts with the Rochester Redwings and stripped of their league leader ship, the Baltimore Orioles faced fight today to keep themselves from falling into fourth place in the h. ternational league standings.
 On the top of the heap five days ago, the Orioles withdrew from Rochester three games behind the flying Redwings, virtually tied with third place Toronto and only a game ahead of fourth place Mon- treal. The Orioles margin over Toronto was two percentage points although a virtual tie existed in games won and lost between the two clubs.
 Rochester's fourth straight win over the Orioles yesterday was achieved by score of to 5. The Redwings jumped on Luther Roy for six hits and as many runs in the first three innings and by the time Henry Wertz entered the game, V. Joe Hauser hit his 33d homer of the year in the seventh to make the score that much closer. Rip Col lins, getting two hits in three tries yesterday boosted his average to .S33 for the four-game series.
 Sam Gibson outpitched Leo Man gum as Toronto made it three in q row from Newark, 4 to 2, both pitchers were somewhat shaky at the start and Toronto was leading to ? by the end of three innings. From there on, Gibson gave the Bears only two hits while Mangum pitched hitless ball until the eighth. In this frame the Leafs filled the bases and managed to score one run. Joe Rabbit led the Toronto offen- sive with three hits.
 Effective pitching by Hermann enabled Reading to turn back Mont real, to 2. Hermann allowed eight hits which he kept we'll scat tered. Elam Van Glider went the route for the Royals and gave up nine hits which Reading punched to
 
 good advantage. Rabbit Whitman, a Montreal castoff, drove in three of Readings runs and made two sen- sational catches in the outfeld that saved Hermann from considerable embarrassr1ent. An odd feature of the game was the fact that Davis, at first base for Reading. had only one putout, a line drive off Nieber- gals bat in the eighth. Whitman had seven chances in center field and he made good on them all.
 The Buffalo Bisons made good use of 12 hits off Miner to beat Jersey City, to 1. Dave Danforth was touched for an even dozen hits be- fore he gave way with two out in the ninth inning to Russell who re- tired the Skeeters without a score. Buffalo won the game with a three run rally in the seventh. Max West was a thorn in the side of Dan- forth all night. He cracked ou, two home runs, double and q single.
