Athletics Trounce Yanks In First Game, 11 To 11 Yankee Stadium, New York. Jnne 21.--(U.R) The Philadelphia Athletics continued their terriffic attack today in the first game of a double header which opened u 5-game crucial series with the New York Yankees and won, 11-1. The tables were entirely reversed from that final series of last year when the Athletics came to New York as league leaders and were thoroughly trounced by the Yankees. Pennock, hero of last year's team, was forced to retire and Sherld, his successor, was knocked out. Wilcev Moore finished the game. Al Simmons, hard hitting Athletic outfielder, smashed out his 15th and 16th home runs of the season, while Bruno Haas, also hit a home run. Other Philadelphia sluggers, including Foxx, bit hard against the Yankees. Yale Oarsmen Triumph Over Harvard Crews New r London. Conn..

SPEAKING OF SP®RT BY FRANK GETTY

Up Jumps the Rabbit I The men who own the National f League ball clubs are extremely sensi- s tive on the subject of the lively or so- J called “rabbit" ball. s When they met at Cincinnati re- 1 cently, a report was circulated to the < effect that far from deciding to curb the liveliness of the sphere at pres- I ent in use, they had voiced senfiments I indicating that the baseball of the I future might well be even livelier ' than at present. Even if they didn’t say any such thing, as they now assert vehemently, ft was a good joke to circulate the yarn. For how they did rise to the bait. With cries of anguish, the magnates denied loudly and angrily that they would consider doing anything to increase the hitting and thus possibly attract more cash customers through their turnstiles. Blame It on the Phillies It’s all the fault of those pesky Phillies, the magnates declare. No one has tampered with the regulation ball to make its peregrinations more attractive. No one has added z(p to its innards to lend its flight a further cash value. The Phillies are at fault. They've

been banging baseballs to places so far afield that the fans have begun to sit up and take notice. If the Phils are hitting that way, there must be something wrong with the baseball, Ttecause it just doesn't stand to reason otherwise. Charley Klein, Frank Hurst and Lefty O’Doul have been whacking homers where homers weren't exactly expected, the National League own ers point out to cover their confusion when accused of having surreptituosly provided a new "rabbit” ball to attract the fans. Attention, Please The Phillies, accordingly, are attracting more attention in National League circles than they have since O’Connell spoke out of turn to Sands. Out of their berth in or near the cellar, they have risen to precipitate a discussion by no means new —are the magnates slipping in a lively ball to promote home-run hitting and receipts? “There was no discusion (at Cincinnati! with relation to adopting a livelier ball,’’ says an official communication from the office of President John A. Heydler. He doesn’t say they didn’t discuss the present liveliness of the apple.

DUDE RANCHES OF WEST HAVE GREAT APPEAL — Easterners Eager To Buy “Atmosphere’’ And Pay Heavily For It By Dan Campbell (United Press Staff Correspondent) San Francisco, June 21^—(UP) —About this time of the year when June brides and summer resort mosquitoes command a tespectable amount of attention a shrewd group of business men turn their efforts to selling the >ld llp-roaiing west to the effete east. And while the east is busy pouring hundreds of its population and thousands of dollars of its money into this western industry, few westerners know of the existence of "dude” rani cites, or have at best only a hazy impression of their purpose. The business of selling the old days >f woolly charts and two-gun men. cattle rustlers and the pony express age to jaded city dwellers of the east, thirsting for the adventures they have read abounds in the west, is a lucrative one. Briefly, it is a business of retailing itmosphere ami little restraint is used n dressing up the dude ranches for he coming of men who have never tuite subdued the boyhood dreams painted in their memory by the hit id >en of the Zine Greys and the B. M. Bowers. To these establishments more than 100 of which are scattered over the old •ow country, come “nerve-frayed" busness men and young society bloods suffering from the ennui of the tea ables of Park Avenue or "run down' by the cocktails of Newport. Some of the ranches, which has organizations behind them maintaining rffices in New York. Boston and Phila lelphia, can accomodate as many as 100, while others limit their guests to a dozen. The rates start at $35 weekly and go up. and for the most »art the altitude would shame an endurance flyer. They advertise extensively especially in society publications along the Atlantic seaboard, but they neither maintain offices nor do they advertise n cities along the Pacafic coast, which leads to the conclusion that apparently dude ranch managers believe that westerners won’t buy atmosphere. Even the smart New York clothing tores look upon the dude ranches as in opportunity and benefit by selling JI-25 lilue denims for $25 as a “cow boy special ” o MANY PROBLEMS AHEAD IN ROAD BUILDING WORK ICONTINIKD ►ROM PAGE OWK> itable calamity to close the existing line, and this route will be started during the present season.

Some must Ire handled even before that time. “To glance at the map one would think we were getting 'caught up' in highway work, but that is far from the case; in fact we find difficulty in keeping up with increasing demands, with out considering gaining on them. “We have to a great extent neglected populous areas and th air crying need for four-lane concrete pavements to complete our original paving plans Remember, this problem is still less than a decade old, and we are still building for conditions which existed when this department was creat'd not

SMOKERS’ OPINIONS WANTED Can a Good Cigar be Made to Sell for sc? We say it can. And we’ve got the cigar to prove it!—Bayuk’s Havana Ribbon. Thirty years on the market; added experience behind it every year; •production increasing by millions—that’s why we’re safe in saying there isn’t another 5c cigar that’s even a close second to Bayuk's Havana Ribbon. Best of all is the fact that Bayuk’s Havana Ribbon contains no bitter under-ripe nor flat-tasting over-ripe tobacco. And no ‘'cuttings” or short ends to crumble in your mouth. But only long, fragrant, flavorful, mellow-mild, fully-ripe middle leaves of choice tobacco plants. Can you imagine such a thing in a 5c cigar? Dig up a nickel and get the reality of it! You’ll tie up to Bayuk’s Havana Ribbon for good. And you’ll fatten your bank account with the money its low price will save you. Sold singly, by the box and in Practical Pocket Packages of five.
