DID YOU EVER STOP
TO THINK
BY Edison r. Waite

Howard A Timbrell. editor Of the
New Britain Comm Record, says:
That the old time merchants, or
those who do business in the old
fashioned way are fast passing out of
the picture. Years ago It was not SO
difficult to do business as there was
little competition. There were few
places in which to trade and most of
the shopping was done at home. 1t
was not necessary to advertise or keep
the window displays up to the minute
SO that they would attract attention.
Today times have changed end the
merchant who goes ahead is the one
that advertises and gees out after the
business and is ready to meet COM
petition. fle uses large amount Of
newspaper space and allows plenty of
white space in his advertisements SO
that they will attract attention and
will be read. His windows are changed
every few days and special attention
is given TO the lighting. The store
windows are seen more at night than
in the day time.
The merchant of today who is sue
cessful is the one that gives service to
his customers.
Business is going ahead and the
merchant who succeeds IS the one that
keeps abreast of the times.

NEW YORK, July 16.-Al Singer claims that if he wins the light weight title from Sammy Man. dell here the night of July IT no small part of the credit will belong to Ignacio Fernandez.
 Fernandez is the boy who al- most ruined Singers title chances by quick knockout of the New York battler. Fernandez was him. self knocked out last night by Bat Battlino.
 The aftermath of that knockout Singer says, was more of shock to him than the two blows which caused it. The realization was brought home to him that he pos sibly wasn't as good as all of his friends said he was.
 Singer retired to train. A good hitter was picked up for a sparring partner, one who could test Sin gers ability to take it.
 During this period Singer had the consolation of his friend, Benny Leonard, former lightweight king, who once was knocked out by Joe Shugrue. Leonard always claimed that defeat improved him as a fighter.
 In training, Singer discovered that he really could take" it. He believes that his failure to weather Fernandezs attack was due to lack of condition and nervousness over an injured eye.
 Whether the knockout or not ac- tually did Singer any good, he has come back with a string of victories including among them one over Fernandez recently in Madison Square Garden.

REVISION OF CITY
 LEAGUE STANDINGS
 IS ANNOUNCED NOW

A revision of City League stand ings was announced today by Vice. President George Kohlhepp thai puts the American Legion club in second place and drops the Elks to the cellar. The Fourth of July series, it was revealed, were on the regular schedule for the second half of the season and count in the percentage column.
 As the Veterans won two games on the Fourth, the Elks and Moose lost one each, the revision gives the Moose six won and one lost, Le- zion three won and five lost, Elks two won and five lost.
 Tonight, weather permitting, the Elks and Legion meet at City Park. Osborne probably will pitch for the Bills and Manning for the Vets. The game will start promptly at 6:30 o'clock.

MANAGER SAYS "HOLD-OUT"
 DIDN'T SEND MANUSH AWAY

ST. LOUIS, July 16.-Bill Kille- fer, m ager of the St. Louis Browns, denies that "hold-outs" had any bearing on his recent famous two for one trade"
 The manager says that the lack of punch in the outfield prompted him to send Heinie Manush and Alvin Crowder to Washington in exchange for Goose Goslin, and that the fact that Manush was a hold-out this spring had no bear ing on the matter.

RUTH NOW HAS COMPLETED
 CIRCUIT WITH HOME RUNS

WASHINGTON, July 16.-Babe Ruth overcame here recently the last stronghold against his home run slugging this season.
 When the big Yankee slugger lined his 32nd of the season over the right field fence during se- ries with the Senators, he had hit a home run in every American League park this year.
 Until the homer, the Washington pitching staff was the only one which hadn't handed up at least one home run to the altar of Ruth's record breaking aspirations.

NEW YORK, July 16.-Singer and Mandell meet in Is round title battle at the Yankee Stadium tomorrow night. The advance sale has exceeded $125,000.
 The odds against Singer have shortened to to 5. There is a possibility that the fighters will go into the ring at even money.
 Experts believe Mandell has weak ened himself by getting down to 135 pounds.
 Singer is not troubled by his weight as he is natural light weight. He has won considerable support during the past few days.

grave and overlook him as he was about to add the record of travel ing the fastest on water to his distinction of speeding faster on land than any other man.
 There's enc thing, you know, old chap, that you can't beat-and tha1s Segrave's luck. It has all ways stayed with me and I believe it will continue to do so, if we have the good fortune to race again"
 So spoke the famous British sportsman, Sir Henry O'Neil De- Lane Segrave, one evening some thing over year ago at Miami } Beach. He had shattered the worlds one mile record for automobile speed by attaining the amazing pace of 231 m.p.h. on the sands at Daytona Beach. He had just beaten Gar Wood, greatest of all American motorboat pilots, in an international duel on Biscayne Bay, and it was to Wood that the re- mark about "Segrave's luck" was addressed
 Segrave was firmly convinced he bore a charmed life in the perilous chase for speed honors; equally as sure he would beat Wood and add the motorboat record to his auto mobile mark. But his luck" appar- ently had run it's course and Se- graves name is added to long list of others: Jimmy Murphy, Frank Lockhart, Ray Keech, Lee Bible.
 Its still too early to make any predictions" remarked Bucky liar ris, the Tiger pilot, on his last visit to New York, but the Athletics have a good chance to win again if Grove, Walberg and Earnshaw set tie down to the kind of pitching they know plenty about. The As are the club to beat, anyway"
 Connie Mack has been having his troubles, plenty of them, but with the cripples returning to the lineup, the worlds champions have struck a more consistent winning stride.
 Meanwhile the Yankees, Cleve- land ana Washington have taken turns at coming strong. The New Workers have requlcd two months to justify the optimism they aroused in training camp but they now loom as the most dangerous contender, especially with Herb Pennock pitching in old-time form. Pitching is one thing the Tanks need in carloads lots and Pennock's successful comeback has helped fill the order. The remark that Bob Shawkey made to me in Flor ida still holds good:
 If Pennock's arm fails to re- cover, he probably will be through for good but if he returns to form, the Yankees will have a good chance to win the pennant.'
 Sammy Mandell was worlds lightweight champion before his forthcoming opponent and chal- lenger, Al Singer of New York, ever donned a professional glove. Man dell won the 135-pound crown from Rocky Kansas on July 3, 1926, and has held it longer than any other fighter in modern times except Ben ny Leonard. Singer began his fight ing career late in 1927.
 Frequently I have been asked what has become of c. 0. Pyle, celebrated promoter of Red Grange, professional tennis and creator of the .lamented Bunion Derby. Those who have been apprehensive of an- other transcontinental trace may be gratified to learn that the one-time Wheaton, H., theatre operator has undertaken a deep sea fishing and hunting cruise or the tropical islands off the West coast of Mexico.
 Pyle has chartered a 115-foot sail and motor yacht for the venture, which will take him away from
The Daily Alaska empire., 1930-07-16

desire for relaxation after a tenn pestous career as a big time pro- moter. Yet his flair for the un- usual remains. Pyle was good while he had it-namely the gambling spirit of a frontiersman, the cour- age of his convictions and supply of the long green. While it lasted this picturesque, likeable character played spectacular role in Amer ican sports.
 Germany has replaced her sol dier life with athletic life," re- marked Murray Hubert, upon his return from the Olympic Congress at Berlin. Instead of it being an armed camp as prior to 1914, the nation now is a network of gym nasiums and athletic fields. Berlin has one major field of some so acres on which athletes from all over Germany train and then grad uate. These athletes go to the smaller towns and cities and pass on their enthusiasm and skill. The result is that athletics have become not only general but contagious in Germany and the indications are that in the games at Los Angeles in 1892, Germany will carry off many of the chief honors."
