YANKS
STILL FACE
HARD FIGHT

independence Day finds both
New York teams-Giants and
Yanks-leading their respective
leagues and the local fans are
looking forward to a nickel world
series.
Although both teams are on
top at the moment it is no cinch
they will finish there despite the
old gag about the team leading
the league July winning the pen
nant.
The Cubs, Cards, Braves and
Pirates are far from through in
the National League and the Tig-
erS, Senators, Red Sox and In
dians are by no means washed up
in the American. None of these is
ready to concede anything to the
leaders nor to one another.
Both the Yanks and Giants
were knocked off yesterday, and
this was just a gentle hint that
the others have just begun to
fight.
Ne0 SOX lake YanKS
The Red Sox took the Yanks
over, l0-9, in II heats in wooZy
affair in which seven pitchers ap-
peared, and in which six home
runs were made. Gehrig got his
21st early in the fray, but Bob
Johnston's in the last inning was
the pay-off ball.
The Tigers crawled a bit closer
to Ruth & Co. when Luke Ham
lin, 28-year-old rookie held the
Indians to six hits and beat them,
Z to 2. Old Goose Goslin helped
the rookie make his big league
debut a success by walloping one
for four with two aboard.
The Braves turned out the
Giants and took them over, to
2, on Bill Urbanski's homer and
some nice pitching by Beets and
Brandt. Parmalee started his
first game for the Giants since
he had his appendix removed two
months ago and showed he was
not quite ready to go the route.
GoOfy Dodgers Lose Again
Austin Moore of the. Phils and
Van Mungo of the Dodgers
hooked up in a nice duel for
several innings but when Mungo
disappeared for a pinchhitter, the
Phils fell on Munns and Clark
for seven juicy runs in one in
ming and won, IL to 2.
Bill Hallahan finally went the
route for the Cards to trim the
Cubs, 7 to 8. The Cubs got to
Bill for l3 hits-as many as the
Cards got off Bush, Joiner, Ma
lone, Timing and Root-but he
managed to keep them spread to
better advantage.
The Reds lost again, which
hardly comes under the reading
of news, but the manner of their
losing is worth noting. Red Lu-
cas-, of the Pirates, held them to
six hits and won, 10 to o. This
was the third straight time Red
trimmed his erstwhile sufferers
from the Rhineland.

 COmical Contest

With base hits and errors com ing in punches the Swift Company baseball team and the Reporters played seven innings at Fulton Park last night, the former aggre- gation chalking up 13 to Il vic- tory, thanks to Ed O'Hearn who umpired.
 The pencil pushers sent II bats men against Red" Crichton in the initial inning and pushed across eight runs before they tired. Charley Keeley held the Ham boys" to three hits in the first three innings, but after that everything he threw up there, good or bad, meant nothing as the vet eran indicator handler grieved to see his boys taking it on the whiskers.
 Louie Mango came out of retire. ment last night after several years layoff, although he should have stayed home as he whiffed four times, as did Turk" Flaherty ot City Amateur League fame. If it wasn't for Crichton and his bat. tery mate, Frank Dillane, the Re- porters would be still at bat in the first inning.

Cashin Takes a Bow

As Jimmy Durante would be apt to snort: "Yuh cudda knocked me over with a sirloin steak" when Harry Cashin, who has done more than his bit to keep sports alive in this city was presented with a handsome trophy last evening from the boys. The latter in- cluded members of the Worden or- ganization and particularly the city and state industrial basketball champions who were feted at Lakeside Tavern. Cashin was visi- bly moved as he unwrapped the token of appreciation given him by the boys whom he organized into a team that did itself proud during it's first year of league competition, but there were none with more pride than Harry Cashin when his boys copped the pair of crowns that were represented by two trophies, but the trophy that took my eye was one of a basketball players figure in the act of throwing for goar' simply in- scribed ITO Harry x. Cashin, from the Boys" It was simple thing, yet fraught with the depth of feel ing for their friend that none of them cared to express in the form of an oratorical outburst that might be gummed up at the climax. But Harry knows how they feel, and it was nice tribute from group of regular fellows to a reg ular guy, and a sportsman from head to heels.

FIERMONTE WANTS TO FIGHT DESPITE

 mission Blocked It

New York, July 3.-(UP)-Enzo Fiermonte, pugilistic step-father of John Jacob Astor the third, pos sesses the family pants he an- nounced today, and will fight where and when he chooses.
 Barred by the New York box ing board from fighting Maxie Rosenbloom, the light heavyweight champion, and apparently barred by rcumStanes-from attending the flossy nuptials of John Jacob the third at Newport, Enzo called up Jimmy Johnston, Madison Square Garden promoter, and said: !:
 "I want to fight
 Johnston, who admitted it was like giving away money to cancel the Fiermonte- e-Rosenbloom fight which has drawn as much publi notice as the Astor wedding, leaped at the idea.
 So Enzo, who retired a year ago to marry the former Mrs John Jacob Astor, and retired more re- gently at behest of Ae New York boxing board, took Advantage of the absence of the swanky Astors in Newport to throt down to the garden and affiX his signature to documents calling for title fight with Rosenbloom some time next month.
 Enzo was bit vague on the re- action his latest move will cause among the Astors.
 'I can lick Rosenbloom." he said. Mrs Fiermonte will be there to see me do it."
 He said there was no rift be- tween the former Mrs Madeleine Force Astor Dick and himself over the pugilistic aspirations. He also denied that he had been snubbed by his step-son and other Astors in the matter of John Jacob the thirds marriage to Ellen Tuck (Tucky) French, which Enzo did not attend.
 Jack Astor and I are good friends" he said. "I had another date, that's all." Questioned about the possibility of a separation from his wife over the Rosenbloom fight, he perspired freely. and said:
 Anything like that will have to come from my wife"

AT NARRACANSETT

Henry Straus, Mechanical Genius Directs Installa= .
 ton of Great Machine

Pawtucket, R. l., July 3-Henry L. Straus, electrical and mathe- nautical genius, today had well underway the construction at Mar ragansett Park, Pawtucket, of the $250,000 "Totalisator", the fourth tob e installed at American racing tracks forthe convenience of Amer ican bettors.
 The "Tote", a masterpiece of human ingenuity, which Is fool proof insurance for all New Eng land bettors, will be ready for use at the two Narragansett Park meets this year, the first running from August to Sept. and the second from October l to Nov. 3.
 Straus, a John Hopkins graduate who spent years in study before constructing his first experimental "Tote" in 1928, is personally di- recting the installation of 256 miles of electric cable and conductors and nearly 500 electric bulbs to display the various fluctuations in p0rices on horses in each race at Narragansett.
 
 The work of installing the ma- chine is exceptionally technical and the equipment includes care of the switches that that transfer the results from the judges stand to the board, the electrical timing ap- paratus and the switchese which lock all machines from the stew ards stand simultaneously with the release ofthe barrier.
 The speed at which the Tote" operates is reflected in the fact that 1t takes one-four thousandths of a second to transmit a wager to the display board.
 One Cost Two and One Half
 Million
 Proof of the absolute efficiency of the machine is the recent in- stallation by MT. Straus' firm of many machines in England, where they are government property. The largest "tote" in the world was Installed by Straus at Ascot last year at a cost of two and one-half million dollars.
 The first "tote" for public use was built at the historic Newman ket Heath course, in England, little more than five years ago. The first American tote" was placed in op- eration at Hialeah in 1882 and styled the Julius" machine, but the machine, as used today, first saw the light of day at Arlington Park, Chicago, in 1883.

Helen Jacobs, American cham pion, and her diminutive partner in Wightman Cup play, Sarah Pal frey of Brookline, Mass, resume play in opposite halves of the draw in the quarter final round, and un- less there is a decided reversal of form, they may be finalists this week end.
 New Workers Win
 Following the mems quarter finals, which saw Frank Shields and Sidney Wood, both of New York, move into semi-final brackets with Jack Crawford, Aus tralia, and Fred Perry of England, the Americans in the women's play will be fighting to keep alive the chance of an all-America final in both sides of the play.
 Miss Jacobs tackles Cilly Aussem of Germany in the upper half, and if she wins will meet the winner of match between Peggy Scriven of England and Joan Hartigan of South Africa. Tn the lower half, Miss Paifrey plays Mme Rene Mathieu of France, and if victor- ious will meet the winner of 8 match between Dorothy Round of England and Lolette Payot, Swiss star.
 Yesterday Shields battle through five lusty sets, working his way back from the edge of defeat, to eliminate Wilfred (Bunny) Austin. second ranking English- man, 4-6, 2-6, 7-5, 6-3, 7-5. Wood won easily over Verno Kirby, South Africa, 6-1, 6-4, 3-6, so.
 Stoefen Subducd
 In other quarter final matches, Lester R. Stoefen, blond California giant. succumbed to the sharp shooting Australian, Crawford, .s5. 2-6, 7-5, 60, while George Lott of Chicago lost to Perry, ranking Englishman, 6-4, 2-6, 7-5, 10-s.
 Miss Jacobs and Miss Palfrey. advanced to the third round of wo- mems doubles by default, while Elizabeth Ryan, former Californ. ian, and Mime Mathieu moved into the quarter finals of doubles play beating Mrs V. Burr and Mrs D. s. Law of England.
 Virginia Rice, of Boston, paired with Bella De Kehrling of Hungary, lost in mixed doubles to Mime Mathieu and Jean Lasseur of France.
 In mems doubles, David Jones, former Columbia student. paired with Clayton Burwell of Charlotte. N. C., to beat J. M. Hunt and c. N. Richie of England.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-07-03
What About Stoefen?

When the United States Davis Cup team left for Europe, the most outstanding feeling was that the young Californian giant, Lester Stoefen would be the man to sur- prise the English trio of Jack Crawford, Fred Perry and Bunny Austin duet his steady game based on cannonball service for which no American opponents had developed an adequate defense. But Stoefen was a fairly easy victim of Jack Crawford only yesterday in the All England tournament at Wimbledon by scores of 7-5; 2-6; 7-5 and 60 while Frank Shields and Sidney Wood were the only Tanks to remain in action. Of coGrse Crawford, the Australian, is about top man in the tennis world right now when you think of Davis Cup competition, which his handling of Stoefen proves, and gives one an idea what to expect from the Davis Cup play.

PENNSYLVANIA TROUT
 GET ARTIFICIAL HOME! BY JIMMY DONAHUE
NEA Service Sports Write

NEA Service Sports Writer
 On a recent trip into Pennsylvania for trout, we were talking to one angler who deplored the present condition of trout streams and voiced the opinion that heavily fished waters of today are too fiat" By that he meant that there were too many low, stul stretches, and not enough rifles, dams and eddies.
 Pennsylvania is endeavoring to eliminate this condition on many of her streams. The state fisheries commission has enlisted the aid of F. R. Hewitt, noted trout authority, and has constructed experimental defector dams to create better. homes for trout and food fish for them.
 In the accompanying sketch Is shown one type of these dams. 1t Is known as the "V-type," and is very practical improvement where the stream has spread out and becomes shallow and practical ly barren of fish.
 The upper dam serves to deepen the water behind it and send it swiftly through the cut, creating rifles where trout congregate irf search for food swept through the opening. The quiet eddies on the sides also are favorite locations for the fish.
 By planting stumps and brush behind the lower dam, great quan- titles of fish food, especially min- nows, take up residence there.
 It is seldom that exact dupli- cates of this dam are found in nat ural state in a stream. But there are hundreds of natural construc- tions which produce the same fa- vorable conditions for trout--wa- ter racing between two boulders. over rifles, and around obstruc- tions.
 It's a good plan to look for them the next time you go fishing.

Gladney Gets The Idea And Speaks His Piece
B, JOHN A. oLUNEY

Below are few ideas of a dyed in the wool" baseball fan, who ap- preciates the game for the games sake and balanced enough not to expect big league baseball at Ham ilton park, but satisfied that the boys are doing their best and is willing to do his bit financially to see them every Sunday. In regard to the recent letter of MT J. ", Walker as published in this column discussing the collections at Ham, ilton park. he has the following to say:
 MT John A. Cluney,
 Sports Editor
 Dear MT Cluney-Ih your col umn last week you had an article concerning the small collections at Hamilton park, You asked the fans that attended these games to kick in and give the boys a break. That was alright as everyone knew what you meant.
 But then along came MT Walker with a letter presenting the other side of the story. His letter seems to leave me in the dark because l would like to know if he goes to the park each Sunday and does not pay (not worth a dime or rickel) or whether he never goes out there (no attraction).
 One part of his letter reads, "fans do ont like to sit in the sun" I would like to have him find me Q seat during any one of the feature games. Then he adds "fans get tired of seeing the same faces each week." Well. the Brooklyn team played the Recreation club last Sunday leach club has about eight new faces) but I don't believe there were one hundred fans watching the game. And as far as seeing the same faces for five or ten years don't think the three or four thousand fans that attend each week sit with their backs to- wards the players.
 don't believe MT walker got the point at all when our sports editor said give the boys a break" To make it clear I'll put it this way. Each Sunday about three or four thousand fans are present at Hamilton park to watch the anna teur players in action. The collec- tions at these games have only av- eraged $50 a week. Won't you fans that attend these games drop a nickel or a dime in the box to help the boys along if you can afford it..
 Personally. I don't give a hoot for the way the collections are taken up at the present time. Why in the name of the sun do they have those girls walking around all afternoon in the hot sun in- stead of standing at the gate is something for someone else beside me to figure out.
 Place a girl at each gate and get the fans on the way in. If they want to give that's the place to get it. By this system every one that enters the park is covered and if they wish to give they will.
 If this idea doesn't work out then all I can say to the league heads is take what they get and make the most of 1t. If they can't get at least $150 from all those fans each Sunday then I for one would be ashamed to say, was from Waterbury if some one asked me about this condition.
 Yours truly,
 JOHN L. GLADNEY.
