 MAKING \ VALIANT
 BATTLE FUR HIS LIFE

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 30. (P)- Captain Oscar J. Landahl, master of the ll-fated Standard Oil tanker Charlie Watson, is making a gall lant battle for his life at the Ma rine Hospital. He was critically burned in the explosion aboard his vessel at Pier 45 when four others were fatally injured.
 It was feared Captain Landahl could live only a few hours, but Dr. Mark J. White, commanding officer at the hospital, said he has an excellent chance to recover.
 The company said they were still in the dark on the cause of the explosion that took four lives and injured nine persons.
 The tanker lay in the Standard Oil docks at Point Richmond un- dergoing minute scrutiny by L. Dee Miller, shipbuilding engineer of the State Industrial Accident Division. Though his preliminary examina- tion covered the superstructure from stem to stern, he was unable to reach any definite conclusion

RICHTFIELDER
 STEALS SHOW
Yankees Base Stealer Talk ing Honors from
 Homer Kings

NEW YORK, July 25.-Offhand, the New York Yankees would be the sixteenth club in the major leagues on which anyone would look for a super base thief.
 The clubs slam-bang, hit 'em, run, knock 1t over the fence at- tack, is too well known to lead to the belief that any offensive sub tleties had been developed here.
 However, that's just what has happened. Ben Chapman. right fielder, with more than 30 stolen bases not only is leading both leagues, but appears to be the best base thief the American league has seen since the heyday of Sam Rice, when the Washington rightfielder stole 62 bases in 1920.
 Chapman's profuse base running this year is due In a large meas ure to the belief of Manager Joe Mccarthy, that few catchers in the big leagues now-a-days have efficient throwing arms Mccarthy has encouraged Chapman to prey on these weak throws, until now fans go out to Yankee Stadium al- most as much to see Bennie per- form as to witness Babe Ruth or Lou Gehrig home run.
 Chapman was not known to be especially fast on base until this year. Last season he stole only IA bases. He landed 26 in 1929 with St. Paul and in 1928 with ASheville stole 30.
 Chapman's chief power on base lies in perfect timing of the pitch and a quick getaway. He uses the orthodox hook slide going into base.
