Freddie Coehrane Takes Title After Fifteen
 Round Battle

NEWARK, N. J., July 30.-Fred- die Cochrane, rugged redhead, took the worlds welterweight champion ship from Fritzie Zivic last night in a rough and tumble l5-round decision fight. Zivic stood on the scales at 145 pounds while the con- tender weighed in at 142h.
 Cochrane's left hand worked overtime as he took all Zivic had and came back for more, bouncing hooks off the champs face before a crowd of 10000. The bout was very close, with Associated Press scoring seven rounds to each fight CT and splitting one between the two.

Seeks Triumph in Victories -AIso in Innings Piteh-
 ed This Season

CLEVELAND, July 30-Bob Teller of the Indians. expected to win his 20th triumph within few days, should easily lead all major league hurlers in victories and also in in- nings pitched.
 Most baseball men think Bob is a cinch to win 20 games to pace both American. and National league fingers, And he is likely to be the iron man of the league, too. With the season just half over, Teller has worked in close to 200 innings. At his, current rate he'll finish with better than $50 innings of activity. Chances are no other pitcher will labor more than PTS innings.

 Many observers declare that the fact that Heath was not himself cost the Indians the l940 pennant.
 Heath not only is batting well but he's also hustling his head off and walking around with a grin instead of last years scowl. Once he even stole home with the win ming run.

 He thinks it's high time he won a batting championship, for until now Jeff has been almost always a bridesmaid and never a bride.

The last scheduled game of the 1941 Channel League baseball sea- son, aside from play-off series, drawled to an end last night with a four-all tie as the Moose and Douglas fought it out until the game was called in an overtime inning on account of darkness.
 Neither nine scored until the third frame when the Moose pulled family of rabbits out of the hat as they hit Erskine two times run ming and netted three runs for their effort. Converse smashed out a hot double and made third on . passed ball. Then up came Lee Kern with the hickory to take single and bring in Converse with the first marker of the fray. E. Miller bobbled on second to allow Schmitz to take first, and Martin came up to the plate. When he grounded out Kern made the second run, leay- ing the way open for Schmitz to come through when Rustad pulled a pebble of his own.
 Douglas Drags
 Douglas poked along with only two hits until the fifth, finally end ing with four errors. But in the first scoring frame, the fifth, John- son surprisingly poked out sin- gle from Converse hurling arm and made the hit good as Wiley smashed out a double. In the same frame the Moose pulled ahead with another run when Martin made the tour after a single and Stragier's error.
 In the sixth Converse weakened to the slugging of the Islanders and before being knocked from the box, dropped three solid hits, two of them being doubles. Right off the bat Erskine took his first hit of the night as he clipped off a single to be followed by Rustad with a double. Stragier's two-base hit brought in Erskine and Rustad, but the Douglas third baseman was caught out at home while trying to slide.
 Stewart Ties
 With one away and the Moose leading by one run Ernie Stewart stepped up for his turn to swing in the seventh frame and got to first on Schmitz's pebble. Kern's Statue of Liberty play with the ball in his hand, gave Stewart op- portunity several men later to bring in the tying run.
 Into the first overtime inning went the game as Old Sol sunk lower in the sky and an overcast started to drop down from the Basin. At the end of the eighth the players stalked from the field with the contest called on account of darkness.
 The box score follows:

More than once during the pres
ent war, the question of bombing
Rome has come up.
Rome is the chief city of Italy,
and is the place where Mussolini
has his headquarters. We might
expect it would suffer, the same as
London, Moscow and Berlin.
Yet the British have spared
Rome, and there are special reasons.
For one thing. the city contains in
teresting remains of ancient times.
It has the Coliseum, where gladi-
stors used to fight in the arena, and
1t has other buildings left by the
olden Romans.
Cairo and Athens also have re-
mains Of ancient times. The British
at one time said that If Axis planes
ever bombed one Of those cities, there
would be bombing raid on Rome.
Since then Cairo has been bombed
to q slight extent, and it was be-
ueved the British might bomb Rome.
They did not do that, however. A
report was sent out that "only the
suburbs" of Cairo had been bombed.
Nineteen hundred years ago, Rome
was the center Of the largest empire
which had existed up to that time
It stretched from Britain to the
eastern end of the Mediterranean
Sea.
Palestine was part Of the Roman
Empire. So was Egypt. Greece was

dream about doing that, but his
dreams have been spoiled. Another
conqueror, more skilled in war, has
come on the scene. Italy seems to
be something like a province in the
new empire which Hitler is building
Yet Rome keeps its interest
through wars and through peace. It
has been called "the eternal city .
1t dates back about $500 years, but
is not so old as Athens or Damascus
In my travels I have looked at
remains left by the ancient Romans.
I have found these not only in italy,
but also outside the country. There
are Roman roads in Great Britain
and France.
In the British museum in London
I saw dolls which were made in
Italy something like 1000 years ago
Roman girls once played with them
Some Roman dolls were made of
clay, others of wax. Many Of them
had movable arms and legs.

East overlook with the jack to lead
the ten of clubs through South. 1t
was clear to East that South had
only one or two hearts and East
wanted to use his entries to lead
NY to dummy's weakness.
South played the king Of clubs
and West took the ace. West saw
that heart continuation might only
help South instead of harming him
(for the reason which will soon ap-
pear, so he shifted to the eight OF
diamonds.
At this point South could lay his
hand down if the trumps were gong
to break normally, since he coulo
lose only a heart, club and per-
haps one trump. Only finding all
four trumps in the West hand could
give him any trouble, but the dou-
BILE indicated the trumps would be
so massed. In order to ind out,
South won the diamond lead with
his king and laid down the trump
nee. East's discard told South the
sad truth and now he had to plan
an end-play in trumps.
Declarer therefore led a diamond
to dummys queen and ruf1ed a
heart return, followed with a dla-
mond to the ace and another run.
These ruffs were essential to his
plan, and West had avoided lead
ing hearts earlier in the hope that
South would be unable to get the
ruffs by himself. Next South cashed
the queen and jack of clubs, bring
ing his own and Vests hand down
to three trumps each. Finally,
South led his low trump.
West had to play the jack to win
the trick. And then he had to lead
away from his queen-eight to South's
king-ten BY losing only one trump
trick, South made his doubled con-
tract.
