One of the late entries to come in is that of Bill Cummings, of Indianapolis, driving a brand new job that promises to be the fastest dirt track car ever built. Bill has been cleaning up everywhere in the last thirty days, having beaten such drivers as Dutch Bauman and everyone he goes up against. The track is being ironed out, and the new world’s record of 25 seconds that Dutch Bauman set up on May 30 is sure to pass into history Sunday afternoon. $700.00 first money is being hung up for the boys to go for, and a tedkiog battle is sure to result. Entries are coming in from six states. Joe Becker, of McKees Rocks. Ba., a possible dark horse, is coming down to show the boys around this section what real speed is. When he goes up against such old racing heads as Dutch Bauman, John Boyd, the wild Texas Indian, and many hot ones he will have a hard job as these boys are out two win. Watching The Scoreboard Yesterday's hero: Charley Root, former ace of the Chicago pitchers, who returned to form and pitched a four-hit game for the Cubs, scoring a 2 to 0 victory over the New York Giants.

Elated at coming home from a long eastern trip only one and one half games behind the league leading Pirates, the Cubs pointed out that “we’ve got the smoothest functioning machine we’ve had all year and they’ll never be able to stop us now." The team started the home stay auspiciously yesterday with a 2 to 0 victory over the New York Giants. The affair was a pitcher's battle between Charley Root and Carl Hubbell, each pitcher allowing only four hits. Root won when he kept the Giants’ hits scattered. Old Zach Taylor, acquired by the Cubs on waivers from Boston, was responsible for much of the Chicago optimism. A fine handler of pitchers, Taylor has worked the Chicago hurling staff into its best condition of the year. Right now manager Joe McCarthy has six hurlers who can be termed regulars. The return of Hal Carlson to winning form, after two years of inconsistent work, was hailed with glee. More optimism was registered when Sheriff Fred Blake finally shook off the “noe bad inning” jinz during the eastern trip. Both these pitchers have won their last three games and Carlson has been almost invincible. When Blake and Carlson are combined with Root, Malone, Bush and Nehf, the Cubs have about the most formidable aggregation of pitchers in the league.* The Cubs should reap a rich harvest during the next two weeks. They have two more games with the ~Hiants. The Phillies come next for five games in four days. Then Boston plays five games in four days and the home stand ends with four games against Brooklyn. —— ■ ■— -o- - Chuck Wiggins Wins From Frankie Wine Indianapolis, July 24. —(U.R)—-Chuck Wiggins, veteran Indianapolis heavyweight, outpointed Frankie Wine, Montana, in a 10-round bout here last night.

POPE TO EMERGE FROM V ACTICAN Large Crowd Expected To Assemble In Rome For Event Tommorw By Thomas B. Morgan. VP Staff Correspondent Rome, July 24.—(U.R) - Perhaps the largest crowd which ever assembled in this immortal city of pomp and ancient grandeur will pack the streets of Rome tomorrow when Pius Xi ern erges from the vactlcan for the first time since he entered it as cardinal to remain as pope. The emergence of the pope and his appearance on St. Peter’s square will be of greater historical significance than even the signing of the treaty and concordat between the Kingdom of Italy and the Holy See. It will mark the first time that a pope of the Roman church has stepped out of the Vatican grounds since an Italian army marched through Porta Pla on Sept. 20, 1870. to end an uninterrupted temporal reign of the popes since the days of the Emperor Charlemagne. In one sense it will be the real beginning of the re-establishment of the peace between the church and Italy, the real beginning of Vatican City as a temporal state. Since the ratifies-

Gov. Harry G. Leslie announced that he has insituated a policy of making public all pleas for clemency for prisoners and the authors of them. “I am not doing this to shift the responsibility of my action in extending executive clemency,” he explained, “but I do want the people of the state to know on what evidence 1 grant favors and who the parties are that are seeking them.

He cited alleged political efforts made to free Edward Toohey, bandit, who served more than two years over ills minimum sentence at the prison, as an example of where the handicap worked. "I told at least one politician that eante to me in Tcsdiey’s behalf that I was surprised to see him taking part In tile affair," the governor disclosed. "There has been a great deal of talk of money in this case, even. In one Instance, the sum of SIO,OOO having been mentioned, as an offer made to get aid.
