LEAD TIE GAINED
IN BIG YANK PUSH
Giants Hold Their Ground
in Senior Loop as BUGS
Continue Drive.
BY HUGH s. FULLERTON, Jr.,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


II you're a New York fan and a
believer in baseball tradition you Can
look forward with some confidence
today to repetition of the subway"
world series of the last two years,
II you're a Cleveland or Pittsburgh
follower, you have just about as much
ground for hoping to see your team
on top.
The old rule, honored as much in
the breach as in the observance, is
that the team on top after July 4
Is the one that will win the pennant.
But 1t doesn't account for a tie nor
does it allow for team that's going
as If it couldn't be stopped.
The Indians were saved or the
Yankees were notwithstanding to
now you look at it-When New York
and Washington wound up in a ~
We after l3 innings of their second
game yesterday The Yanks had won
the first, 1915 for their ninth straight
victory. Cleveland, running into the
Detroit Tigers, who we're smartine
from three losses at St. Louis. took
a double setback, 7-3 and So. The
net result was to leave the Yanks
and the Indians tied for the lead
each with Al victories and Is losses
Bucs Stick at Giants Heels.
On the National League side the
Giants preserved their lead by wallop-
ing their cousins" the BROOKLYN
Dodgers. 30 and 16-l. But Pitts
burgh's Pirates. moving up under full
steam. defeated the Cincinnati Reds
IL and 80. That gave them 7
straight triumphs and 20 games won
by one-run margins this season.
Cleveland got only II safeties off FL
den Auker and Harry Eisenstat. Bob
bv Feller's wildness was too much for
even two homers by Ken Keltner and
one by Moose Solters in the opener
while Charley Gehringers our-bageer
with two on in the seventh won the
niehtcap for Detroit.
Inc twin triumph sent the Tigers
INTO fourth place ahead of Washington.
While Chicago's White Sox moved into
sixth past the Athletics. The Pale
Hose, on a f1ve-run rally and Jack
knotts six-hit flinging, knocked off
the Browns, 5-4, and 5-l Philadelphia
took pair of beatnes from the Bos-
ton Red SoX. s-5 and So, as its
weakening mound staff gave up Is
blows.
Cubs Again Lose Ground.
The Giants combined slick pitching
by Hal Schumacher and Clydell Cas-
tleman with homers to win their two
games. Dick Bartell hit for the circuit
in each game and Jim Ripple. Lou
Chiozza and Gus Mancuso drove out
one homer apiece The Pirates made
the most of Cincinnati errors. although
between them Cy Blanton and Bill
Swift granted only Is hits.
Chicago's third-place Cubs slipped a
little farther back when they divided
pair Of 4-3 decisions with the St.
Louis Cardinals. Each team came
from behind to win on an eishth-in-
ming rally. The Boston Bees and Phil
adelphia Phillies also broke even in
the Phils' first home play at Shibe
Park. Five runs in the eighth gave
the Bees the opener, 1915. and Claude
Passeau's f1inging paved the way for
Philadelphias 1912 win.

TO FEEL AT HOME,
 FINLAND MEET

HELSINGFORS, Finland, Sept. Ats no use learning the lan- guage of Finland in preparation for the 1940 Olympic Games because the Films already have learned English and American.
 Finland's school boys and girls must speak Finnish and Swedish, the two local languages, right from the start. and on their first day in school they start learning English.
 Once they have mastered the for eign tongue used in Great Britain, they pick up American in a hurry from the talkies.
 In years gone by, German was re- garded as the third language, and a German today can get around Finland with ease
 The gradual spread of English throughout the world, however, con- vinced educational authorities that English is the coming tongue, and so they instituted courses in Eng fish, In addition to classes in schools for children, the older folks are learning in night schools, clubs and offices.
 Even today the demand for Eng fish courses is increasing, at the cost of interest in other foreign languages, until almost everyone in the larger cities can either speak few essential words or carry on a conversation with an Englishman or American.
 Just to be sdre, however, Olympic officials plan to provide a corps of interpreters who can cope with any emergency in any language.

Biggest Sweeps Winner Is Back
 To His Old Job
Just a Story of Fortunate Man Who Finds Happi-
 ness in Little Shop

LONDON, Sept 3-If you really want to know what happens to sweepstakes winners, here's the story of what happened to the big gest of them all.
 Emilio Scala is the exception which proves the rule. Ninety-nine men out of a hundred who stumble into big money may crash in gray roadster, drink themselves to death or let women make fools of them.
 Emilio is the hundredth
 After a windfall of $1,790000 in 1881, he is back where he started, selling penny ice cream cones over the counter and happier than any time since he started living the life of Riley"
 Their Shop Then
 Son of a poverty-stricken father who cared for IA children on wage of less than $2 a week, Emilio left Italy as a boy and came to Lon don, where 1881 found him in a tiny corner cafe in Battersea. There his wife and two sons helped him in a grubby trade of tea, crumpets and waters.
 He wiped his hands on his apron one afternoon and picked up paper to read that his half-crown ticket on Grakle had won the grand prize in the Irish lottery.
 Scala had sold three-fourths of his ticket for a few shillings and immediately harvested lawsuit. When is was all over he had $400,O00
 He bought and furnished a 23- room house in Forest Gate He bought automobiles for himself and his two sons, distributed cash generously among his relatives and made a gala trip to Italy.
 Tribulations of Wealth
 Begging letters poured in by the hundreds. He heard from relatives he never knew existed Most of the 49 he recognized needed money. Share pushers and business sharks pestered him. His sunny face soon began to show lines of care. He made a few bad investments, but was not badly hurt.
 Mamma" Scala couldn't get along with the help. Often she did the housework in her palatial home
 The boys, Fred and Joe, 24 and B years old, didn't want to go to college, but they travelled around the world and studied the ice- cream business.
 Emilio and his wife have had an annual three months holiday in Italy and still think they may take a trip around the world on a luxury cruise, but idleness has palled on them.

All this certainly meant the con- version of an i'll wind into one form of general good.
 The second fact of importance is that we have learned to gauge and direct the multiple economic forces which come into play in public works program, so that in the future we can guide public works program in the direction in which it will do the most good, LESSONS LEARNED
 The bureau of labor statistics of the U. s. Department of Labor undertook with the cooperation of the PWA to measure these quanti- ties in exact proportion. AS re- suit, that agency was able to de- termine that for every hour of employment created at the site of PWA construction, two and a half times as much work was general ed in regular industrial employ ment-furnishing, creating. trans porting and distributing supp ics and materials. It determined how much employment was created, directly and indirectly, in the con- struction of public building. or a reclamation project, or water or sewage project It found out what types of project would take up the slack" in the lumber industry and lumber areas, in the machinery business, the stone, clay and glass industry, or the chemical business.
 Never again will we have to strike out at as we did once, blindly but hopefully. Thus we have learned as we have built.
