ROBINS SHOW ~ MUCH OPTIMISM Chicago, Aug. 14—(UP)—"I guess we’ve just about convinced everyone that Brooklyn is going to be In the Pennunt race right up to the tin hh. It’s tile old story. Everytime we lose a couple of games the cry gm s up that 'the Roldns are cra< kIng’. When they start counting us out of the race the boys step out and show them the only cracking we know anything about is cracking me ball all over the lot.” Manager Wilbert Robinson of the Brooklyn Robins was speaking and he didn't care if all the world heard. He was in a particularly jovial mood following his team’s 15 to 5 victory over the Chicago Cubs in the second game of the current ’Little World Series” to decide the National League leadership. The United Press correspondent overtook "Uncle Robbie” during a Tom Thumb golf game. During the play Robertson ap peared more interested in singing the praise of his ball team than in his golf score. “The writers are wrong in saying that on paper the Robins don t ra‘e as a first division club,” said Robinson. “I have a real team and I really believe well win the pennant. Sometimes I’m inclined to think my 1930 team is the best I've ever managed and I’ve had some good clubs, Including two pennant winners. “It’s the old fighting spirit which is carrying us through. Our victory over the Cubs was an example. We had lost five games in a row—our longest losing streak of the season, and were up against our 'jinx team Everyone figured we were ready to fold up and quit after being under the strain of setting the pace tot two and a half months and then losing our lead. “Instead of cracking the boys went out and hammered five members of the Cubs’ pitching staff for 188 hits and 15 runs. With Clark, Luque and Thurston available to pitch the next two gar.« s we hope to earn at least an even break in this series. "The Giants are a threat but they haven’t been so tough for us this ear. It’s the Cubs we have to fight and now that we’ve shaken off our slump, look for the fur to fly.” o Dick Engle, David Cramer, and Lowell Lee of Plymouth attended the land concert at Geneva last evening.
REMARKABLE IS THIS CASE WON BY KONJOLA! Rheumatism and Other Ailments of Six ears Standing Are Conquered by Modern Medicine MRS. LILLY A. WARD “Six years ago my health began to fail,’’ eaid Mrs. Lilly A. Ward, Y.W.C.A., 329 North Pennsylvania street, Indianapolis. “First my stomach became disordered and I suffered terribly with pains of ind gestion. Formation of gas caused my heart to palpitate. My kidneys became weakened and steadily grew worse until 1 had to rise several times every night. Then I began to suffer with rheumatism. My limbs swelled; the muscles and joints became stiff and sore, ahd I suffered agony with this dread ailment. “Finally a dear friend recommended Konjola and insisted that I take it. I took this medicine with strict adherence to directions until I had used about ten bottles, and all my dreadful ailments have vanished completely. My stomach never bothers me, and my sleep Is undisturbed. The swelling, aches and pains are all gone from my limbs, and I feel fine in every way. I get a lot of pleasure out of telling people what Konjola did for me.” Konjola has become the moet talked of medicine in America because it makes good. And Konajola makes good in the most stubborn cases when given a fair trial. Six to eight bottles are suggested as a fair test. Konjola is sold In Decatur, Ind., at the B. J. Smith drug store, and by all the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire section.

I BASEBALI. BRIBES I ♦ * Just how Intense was the compettion in the National League today when the three leading clubs resumed warfare on the western front may be gained by a glance at the standings of the pennant-mad trio. Here are the standings ,as the Chicago Cubs renewed their battle with the Brooklyn Robins and the New York Giants sought to make it two in a row over the Cincinnati Reds. W L Pct Chicago 66 45 .595 Brooklyn 67 46 .593 New York 62 47 .569 Brooklyn moved into a virtual tie for the lead Wednesday when they smothered the Cubs under a barrage of 18 base hits, to win 15 to 5.

After they had scored two runs to tie the score in the ninth, the Giants went on to get two more In the tenth to defeat the Reds 7 to 6. Freddie Lindstrom's home run with Critz on base accounted for the winning tallies. Remy Kremer scored his 15th victory of the season as the Pittsburgh Pirates downed the Phillies 8 to 4. The Philadelphia Athletics continued their way toward another American League pennant by making it three straight over the Cleveland Indians, 7-2. Although outhit 14 to 11 the Washington Senators managed to turn back the White Sox 7 to 4. Eight pitchers saw service as the New York Yankees defeated the Detroit Tigers 10 to 8.

to Friedrichshafen. Five minutes after the pass ngors. each with 30 pounds of luggage, had come aboard, the lights of the dirigible flashed and the, motors were started. The ropes that bound the dirigible to earth fell away one by one, a bell rang in the momentary silence and the R-100 was released from the mast and shot upward, its motors backing and roaring. Within a few minutes only twinkl- - ing tail lights were visible as his majesty’s ait ship sped homeward. , Aboard th? dirigible were a , hunch of Canadian peonies sent , by Lotd Willingdon to King George | ind a little basket of Niagara | peaches for the Prince of Wales. The two packages were the only i freight aboard, although a pay load i totalling about $500,000 in freight had been offered for the trip. Four meals will be served each , I lay on the ship. There will be i ch cken, ham. bacon, eggs, biscuits; and salads and deserts for dinner, < in addition to a choice selection of 1 liquor and beer. The food supply 1 included 45 loaves of Parisian bread. French pastry, cheese, tea. 1 •ocoa, condensed milk, strawberry jam, peaches, tenderloin, lamb hops, olives, soups, tomatoes, lettuce, cucumbers, chocolates and hewing gum. Only a handful of letters were: taken as mail on the flight. One' was from Prime Minister Bennett to Prime Minister Ramsay Mac - Donald of England, and another) from the High Commissioner of Great Britain in Canada to the secretary of state for dominions, and others from various officials addressed to British officials. 0HAWKS HOLDS NEW AIR MARKi (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) ) On h’s westward flight last week , in the small, low-winged travelair' monoplane builf specially for the! record attempts, he lowered the ; Atlantic-to-Pacific mark of Col. ; Roscoe Turner. A dazzling pace of 220 miles an hour was set for the 2,510 miles traversed in yesterday’s flight. Col. Lindbergh, when informed of the new record, expressed delight at his friend’s achievement. I “I am certainly glad to hear it," Lindbergh said. "I think it is a fine thing that he brought the record down. I'll offer my •congratulations to Captain Hawks at the very first opportunity.” Hjawks wc>. boyishly happy over the accomplishment. He munched on lettuce .and nut sandwiches his mother had made for him in Los Angeles and told of the trip. "Weather conditions,” he said, "over the full length of the course evened up so that the ship had (either advantage nor disadvantage. “From Loft Angeles, to Albuquerque, N. M.. I had a dead calm and from there on to Wichita I had a favoring tail wind. “At St. Louis I ran into some rain and* head winds and from Indianapolis to New York the air was so thick with dust and smoke from the drought that I often couldn’t see the ground from 3,000 or 4,000 feet up.” Capt. Hawks plans to race his sli p later this month at Chicago at the national air races. An enthusiastic crowd greeted him when he landed at Valley Stream. The long ride did not exhaust him, although he was stiff after being cooped up in the cockpit more than 12 hours. He had remained in the ship at the three refueling points. A year and eight months ago, when Hawks began his assaults on the cross-country speed recoiyls, the fastest westward time had been made by the late Capt. C. D. D. Collyer. It was 24 hours and 15 minutes. The significance of Hawks’ latest feat is brought out strikingly when his record of 12 hours and 25 minutes is compared* with the

Returning to look for clues, officers found his body near the automo-: bile where Coleman and Myers had been slain. In Stein's pocket, the police found a tear gas bomb and a state prohibition agent's badge. The fact that Stein wore' a hat, and that three other hats were found in the automobile, suggested the three victims may have had a companion. The vicinity of the murders was searched thoroughly for a possible fourth victime. but none was found. The massacre automobile belonged to Coleman and carried a Missouri license. Major General Rhinow and the police sought to connect the assassinations with the recent reports that Moran, driven out of Chicago with his gang by too much "heat,” had made the twin cities his field of operat'ons. , When last reported, Moran was on an outing near ; Brainerd.
