White.Tailed Jack Rabbit
Qepus campestriS)
BY LILLIAN-COX ATHEY.

Many who are we'll acquainted
with the habits of this rabbit"
know 1t more correctly as the plains
hare or prairie hare. It does not
confine its wandering or establish
its home on these places only. for
it is found living on slopes at an
altitude of 10000 to 10000 feet, on
both the Rocky Mountains and the
Sierra Nevada Mountains. From
these lofty heights, the range is ex-
tended to the center of Kansas and
northwward to the plains of Sas-
katchewan, Canada, which proves
the rowing disposition of the clan.
This fellow attains ample pro-
portions and is feet in length.
Clad in a fur that is soft and silky
in texture and in color, to blend per-
fectly with growth and sand all
about, the Whitehall enjoys a more
than average amount of freedom
from too quick detection.

The last two months often are

know something about that. The

History Helping
Yankees, Reds
To Pennants
Annals Show 10-Gume
Leaders Never Beaten
Out in Title Race
Bv BILL WHITE,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

It's no longer question of base
ball, it's a matter of history.
About the Yanks and the Reds
winning their respective league
titles, that is.
An unnamed hero has pored
through history's pages-going clear
back to the days of mustache cups
and horsehair furniture-to find out
that no team that has once during
the season held lO-game lead ever
is beaten for the title.
Caught, yes; passed, perhaps, but
never nosed out, no matter how hot
the pace set by those clubs who try
to scoop up in September what they
missed in May.
So all the tears shed for what
was the worst home stand of the
year for the Yankees. or for the
woes of Bill McKechnie, are croco-
ollie of the deepest dye.
Dodgers Spurning History.
However general that knowledge
may be, it certainly hasn't slowed
up any of the other teams-indi-
eating maybe that the boys are not
we'll versed in history, or just don't
give a durn. One of the teams in
that category is the Brooklyn
Dodgers. still giving the old college
try from a second d-division berth.

minding them into a new attend
ance-if not new altitude-record,
he may have results yet this year,
but certainly will in years to come
Like football coach with a weak
line, MacPhail builds for the fu-
ture. You'll recall it was this same
MacPhail who put the Reds on the
trail they now are trodding.
Last night, in the National
Leagues only game, the Dodgers
shipped the Boston Bees, rs, as
27,950 Flatbushers watched Dixie
Walker make his Brooklyn debut.
He did it properly, singing in the
tenth with two out to give the Merry
Macs another in their series of
extra-long night battles.
Enlivened by Home Runs.
The win proved it was true what
they said about Dixie, put the
Dodgers in fifth place and gave Vito
Tamulis his fifth victory against
four setbacks.
1t was a see-saw affair all the
way, enlivened by homers by Max
West of the Bees and Cookie La
vagetto of the home forces.
In the only other game played in
the majors, another newcomer, Lou
Boudreau, up from Buffalo, spanked
the Cleveland Indians to a 6-5 win
over the st. Louis Browns.
Though the winning blow
was delivered by dependable Roy
Weatherly, Boudreau was the de-
fensive hero, covering ground like a
rainstorm and contributing two
hits, one triple.

Mats Primed 10 Show
Whether Those Yank,
Really Are Slipping
Send Three Slab Aces
Against Champions in
"CrucioI" Series

With their three pitching aces
primed and showing 13 victories in
their last Is starts, the Nationals
boldly awaited their most important
series of the season today. The
opposition for the next three days
will be the world champion Yankees
losers of two in a row.
President Clark Griffith benevo-
lently has bestowed upon the series
a crucial mantle. 1T will tell
whether the Yankees are cracking
and whether the American League
will have race down the stretch IS
he says. THE Indians did their
part in knocking EN- off in a dou-
ble-header Sunday. and now we've
got to do ours" Griff, of course, is
not thinking of the box Office, too.
Krakky Starts Series.
Joe Krakauskas, who started the
Mats on their seven-game winning
streak by winning over Cleveland
and who since added another game
to the string, was to open the series
today. Krakky has won five of his
last six starts.
Ken Chase, winner of three in a
row, and Dutch Leonard, winner of
IL for the year and loser of only 4
games, will pitch the second and
third games.
If the Griffmen ever are to be
equipped to battle the Yankees it
would seem this is the time. In
early season skirmishes they as
founded the rest of the league by
piling up brief lead in games
played with the champions. Even
since several reverses they show S
wins in II games.
For the first four and a half
months the Mats never were any
thing but an unsteady outfit, plagued
by uniformly bad pitching Except
by Leonardo, a new and inept first
baseman nearly every two weeks,
and an outfield which was changed
daily. Most of the same players
still are in the lineup, but in spots
they have jelled. Then, of course,
there has been different kind of
pitching. This is what has been
carrying the Mats along their win
ming ways-pitching and, from
Rookie Jim Vernon, the best first
base play in 4 couple of years.
A Crucial Series Here!
Griffith and Jimmy Dykes, presi-
dent and vice president of the
Down. With -the-Yanks Chowder and
Marching Club, contend that in a
well-pitched game the Yanks are
just another ball club. Throw the
same pitching against them that we
saw" Dykes said after the series in
which the Chisox were whitewashed,
"and they won't be so tough"
Anyway, the next three days
ought to tell. It's nice, at long last,
to have q crucial series in your back
yard, too.
