WILSON'S THIRD
 TEAM AS PARKS
 LEAGUE LEADERS
Triple Tie Created With Reymond's Defeat
 Yesterday

Xhe wilson A. c. entered the deadlock for top position with two others, in the Public Parks league sanding in the second round by virtue of their win over the Rey- mond Hillies by a 9-4 score. The game was played at Fulton Park. The Reymond Hillies will face the c. and c. Jrs at the same field this evening and should the Italians emerge with a victory there will be four teams tied for first place. The teams will then be obliged to participate in a playoff for the right to meet the Oakland A. C.. first series winners for the league championship. At present St Stan islaus, the Wilson A. c. and North End Hillies are in the running and it is probable that the c. and c. will be in the picture, following the result of their game tonight.
 Circuit Clout
 Eddie Danovich, former Wilby player drove @ home run with the sacks loaded in the last section of last nights encounter to assure the Wilson's that they were still in the running. Freddy Jacovino, ace of the Wilson mound staff allowed two hits and managed to get three strikes over on Il batsmen. Bob Grady, pitcher for the Hillies was made the victim of the hard hit ting Wilson who collected II hits. Rossi and DiBiase also batted out circuit blows. The score:

Just Before The Battle

The only thing between Jimmy McLarnin and fistic oblivion, as far as any future tit.e hopes are concerned is his good right hand. Tonight, he will cndeavOr to "tag" Barney Ross with it and re- gain the worlds welterweight title, Ross took from him so cOnvincingly last May. Nc. Larnin has chance, an out side chance to be sure, for Ross Is just short of his peak as a fighter, and a triple world champion, one of the greatest little men i'm ring annals. Yet, McLarnin can stop him in the early rounds, before his legs get weary, but he must move faster to feint Ross out of position that he did before. I think Ross will OutpOint the Irishman, but a knockout with Ross on the floor is not at all impossible.

braggadoccio fighters usually give you. He said he would win be- cause he was the better, younger man. And at the same time he didn't minimize McLarnin's s chances.
 Anybody that can hit like that guy," Ross said, "has always got a chance. If he gets too many clean tee shots at my chin I'll get licked. I know that for he socked me in the second round of our first fight, and jeeze, don't want to ever get popped that way again. But don't believe he will get many tee. shots. I learned plenty in that first fight. I learned too much for McLarn- in's good, I believe. So take my tip and play Barney Ross. He's going to win." (Copyright, 1884, by United Press)

 7POUND EDGE
Ross ' to 5 This Morning McLarnin Figured
 Burned Out
BY STUART CAMERON Limited Preas Shorts EIlifOrl


 New York, Sept 6--(UP)-Bar ney Ross, world lightweight and welter champion, Is a robust favor ite to retain the latter title tonight in his return 15-round bout with Jimmy McLarnin, despite handi- caps of weight, punch, experience and jinxes. Betting is to on Ross.
 Experts are confident the dark haired Chicago sharpshooter will emerge from the light-fiooded ring in Madison Square Gardens Long Island City Bowl with second tri- umph over the Vancouver Irish- man from whom he wrested the 147-pound crown last May.
 Nevertheless, McLarnin, hardest puncher and most colorful fighter his division ever knew, has an army of admirers who disagree with the quotations and the ex- perts.
 Judges Differed
 The first edition of this Celtic Hebrew feud--the "battle of op- tical illusions' - did not shake their confidence in Dynamite Jim. They have not forgotten the tenn pest of debate which followed the Ross decision In which the two judges were as far apart as the poles. And they know that Jimmy will be in better shape than the ring rusty chap who fought last time.
 That's why the milk fund, prom oting the bout, expects more fans to attend tonight than witnessed the initial May encounter. Another Benny Ross, at 25, is approaching his peak; the greatest all-round fight CT since Benny Leonard. He Is fast, smart, rugged and enduring. But it Is feared that McLarnin, at 26, is slipping-that 12 years of fighting burned him out. He ap- peared leg weary in the closing stages of the May bout. Jimmy is expected to have a weight advantage of about 145 1-2 pounds against Barney's 138 1-2.

Life Is Cheap

It's a cinch that automobile race drivers value their lives and, ap- parently those of others about the same as they would put a price on a ride through the country in 8 hay wagon. Talking with Sim Lanehart this afternoon relative to the acident at Readville, Mass; Labor Day in which his car killed one woman, and injured four others, Lanehart was not particu- larly distressed about the matter, for he plans to put his life in jeopardy again next Sunday at Cherry Park in Avon. For the show" which he put on as he expressed it, Lanehart got $20 though 42,000 people were on hand and complained quite bitterly a. bout the treatment accorded race drivers by automobile racing pro- motors. The Waterbury driver was unhurt himself, because, perhaps it was not his turn to die, though the life of a woman was taken and that of ten year old boy despaired of. Another odd angle to the situation was that the races at Readville werc promoted by Dick Dunn, who put the auto races on at the Sage Park track in Windsor twice last month, before the death of Hal French, New Hampshire driver. brought stop to the sport at that park, though they are still running in the town of Avon. Lanehart's accident oc- cured when he missed his grasp on a "cutout wheer' in a car not his own, but which he drove for someone else, when his own ve. hicle was smashed up earlier in the afternoon. A Boston policeman. James w. McAllister, saved the life of a little girl, who ran in the path of Lanehart's uncontrolled machine, by picking the child. up and throwing her over his head in back of a fence. Perhaps, an automobile racing driver has an answer to the question What IS Life?" that has baffied philoso- phers for centuries.

 Still a few hundred dollars shy of the amount needed to- make their trip comfortable, the party of fifteen players, league officers and others entrained for New York from where they will go direct to Youngstown, ohio, arriving there tomorrow evening. They will be quartered at the Ohio hotel, during their stay at the scene of the na- tional tournament. Drawing for first opponents of the Hearts will take place tomorrow night, which means they will play Saturday aft crnoon unless bye is drawn which will give them An added day of rest.
 Rarin' To Go
 Following a diligent workout at Hamilton park last night, Captain Harry Melvin reported all hands in good shape. He has three pitch ers, Mulesky, who will probably start for the Hearts in their first game, Eddie Hennessey of Nauga- tuck and Paddy Quifter.
 Plenty of power with the bats will be turned on from the first game. Batting .315 as team be- fore their championship game with the Tribunes last Sunday. On de. fense they have a .942 average which is comparable with most amateur teams of the better class. All in all, general opinion seems to be that the Hearts are one of the strongest teams to represent the city in the past nine years since tournament experience for local teams began. The Hearts played at Philadelphia in 1926, at Cin- cinnati in 1890 and go to Youngs- town this season.

 In the meantime, Attorney Thomas F. McGrath, chairman of the "On to Youngstown" financial campaign hoped to secure about $400 today so that the boys would be properly taken care of before train time today.
