One of the most colorful ring
men ever turned out locally shoots
for boxing's big time at Griffith

officially dedicates the 1886 open

AMERICAN LEAGUE
SPORT SLANTS

There is more than a little wis dom in the athletic adage you can't win all the time." It is es- pecially true in this day of extend ed campaigns when topnotch ath- letes are expected to keep going to the end. There are no seasonal let ups in tennis, golf, swimming and track. The athletes either move in- doors or follow the sun to such parts of the world as permit com petition. Wise, indeed, is the ath- lete who points for the highest honors and does not mind an oc- casional defeat when the defeat means little or nothing.
 Fred Perry of England is just such a man. Perry may suffer a lapse in form during the "offy season, in some minor tournament but when the big tests roll around you can depend on him to be ready for all corners. Last winter Adrian Quist beat Perry to take the Aus tralian tennis title. Australia's hopes of winning the Davis cup scared. Later. Perry went down before the slashing attack of Baron Gott- fried von Cramm in a French tournament. Germany's tennis stock was boosted to the skies.
 Perry smiled and took those de- feats in good grace. He knew well that when the big tests at Vim

New York s Victory Makes It Thirty Wins in
 5 Starts

BOSTON, Mass, Aug. 21.-The fast travelling New York Giants pulled a 3 to 2 decision out of the fire yesterday afternoon for their tenth straight victory as they turned back the Boston Bees in the latter's ninth inning rally which was just short of tying the score.
 In addition to being their tenth straight win, the victory was the thirtieth for the Giants in their last 35 starts and kept them on the heels of the National Leagues leading St. Louis Cardinals.

bledon and the Davis cup matches rolled around he would be ready. He was. He downed Von Cramm with ease to win the English title at Wimbledon Quist was no match for Perry when the Davis cup was at stake.
 Jack Lovelock is another great athlete who knows how to bide his time. All spring we received glow ing reports of young English bank clerk, Stanley Wooderson by name, who was destined to win the Olympic 1,500-meter championship on the strength of three convincing victories over Loyelock. But if you glance over the list of Olympic champions crowned in Berlin you will not find any mention of Stan ley Wooderson. For the simple req son that MT. Wooderson did not manage to survive the qualifying heats Jack Lovelock wears the l. 500-meter crown. And, what's more, he created a new world and Olym- pic record in making a show of the greatest milers in the world, including Glenn Cunningham, Luigi Beccali, Italy's 1892 Olympic 1,5Oo- meter champion; Archie San Ro- mani and Gene Venzke.
 Jesse Owens wisely pointed for the Olympic Games. And Owens romped off with three individual titles and ran on the winning 400- meter relay team to prove himself the outstanding athlete at Berlin. True, Owens paved the way to his Olympic triumphs with series of amazing victories this spring, but the great Jesse suffered a stunning setback a year ago at the national championships when he was head ed to the tape in the 100 meters by Eulace Peacock, and a few min- utes later was beaten by the same athlete in the running broad jump
 Those defeats probably had much to do with owens success this sum- mer. First of all, they showed Jesse that he could not carry through a killing campaign and still be at the peak of his form for the big tests. They taught him to take things easy and point for the in- ternational meeting. He was content to let the other fellows baSk in the spotlight during the indoor sea- son isld win unimportant cham pionships which would be forgotten when the Olympic program got underway. Owens reward came in Berlin before the largest crowds ever to watch track and field com- petition.
 It's the mark of a great athlete to go along without strain in minor events but to be ready when the big test rolls around. Baseball play CTS in the major leagues soon learn that they cannot last a season if they turn on full pressure in spring exhibition games. They use these unimportant contests to sharpen themselves for the championship race and then turn on the heat when something of importance is at stake. It's the same with the headliners in any sport you can name-they pick their spots, pre- pare themselves for the big mo- ment-and then let go.

 Cronin denied previous rifts with the hurler who left for Boston this morning after a futile talk with Cronin last night.

 Cronin immediately ordered a fine of $l,0OO on Terrell and also announced his indefinite suspen- sion.

 The report also points out that on August l, the last date for which figures are available. there remained in packers hands only 349,333 cases carryover from the 1885 pack, and that this virtual lack of carryover means that the new pack will go into consump- tion faster than is ordinarily pos sible.
 Feeling in the grocery trade is reported to be that Alaska's re- cord pack is not too large in view of the current market outlook Despite the short pack of salmon on Puget Sound and the Colum- bia River the available supply of Canned Salmon will be above normal, but the trades attitude is that this tremendous packwill be needed in view of the favor- able factors in the market.
