GIANTS-YANKS MAY TANGLE New York, Aug. 25—(UP) —Posibility that New Yoik Giants anti Yankees will win second place in their respective leagues today fur-' nisiied added incentive for a postseason city series between the two clubs. Proposals for a city series, advanced by the New York World Telegram have be n received enthusiastically by the players and fol-1 lowers of the two teams who have 1 not met since the Wot Id Series of 192:1. With the Giants apparently assured of second place in the National League and the Yankees within one came of the second place Washing-! ton Senators in the American League’ the proposed series would be I second in interest only to the World Series. The Yankees moved to within a single game of second place yesterday when they defeated Chicago 8 to 5. for theii sixth consecutive victory. Babe Ruth led the New York Attack with his :17th homer I of the year. . A ninth inning homer by Bill Terry, his second of the day enabled the New York Giants to will the second game of a double header with the Chicago Cubs 2 to 1. The Cubs took the opener, S to 4. The Washington Senatois lost their ninth game in 15 starts when ■ they dropped a ti to 5 verdict to De-1 troit. Dale Alexander's double with two out in the ninth accounted for' the winning run. Philadelphia's Athletics defeated St. Louis 5 to 1 and increased their; American League lead to 14U games. Roy Mahaffey allowed only 5 hits to scote his fourteenth victory. Heavy hitting by Eddie Morgan I gave Cleveland an 11 to 7 triumph over Boston. Morgan drove in five runs, three with a homer in the first and two with a single with the bases loaded in the fourh, ;<1 scored twice himself. Yesterday's hero— Bill Terry Giants

TODAY’S SPORT * PARADE By HENRY McELMORE, UP Staff Correspondent ;♦ - ♦ New York. Aug. 25—(UP) —Si El: Ranchero Victorio Campolo Derrota ' a Ernie Schaaf manant por la' i noche,, sus esperanzas de ganar el Campeonato de peso pesado habban I I iiegardo a su fin. And if we of the sporting fraternI ity must translate that for you, it I means that if Victorio Campolo i doesn't get the lead out of bis No. ' 'l7 feet in his fight with Ernie ] Schaaf tomorrow night, he might just as well say bye bye to his heavyweight hopes and get back to i South America and cattle punchI ing. For Ranchero Campolo and his 16 feet 6% inches and 233 pounds lias been among us nearly five years ; now without having anything more to show for his stay than the unof- ] ficial rocking chair championship, ■ something like $15,000 in gilt edge ' debts, a wounded pride, and a couple of sore ribs. It is not-that the big over-stuffed Muchacho has not had plenty of ' chances to prove his worth, if any. j 'and make plenty of what it takes. The truth is the big Argentine has' I had nearly as many chahces as - Peggy Hopkins vioyee. But, unlike .Miss Joyce, he has muffed them with a sterling consistency. Speaking of Miss Joyce, Campolo might well adopt la Joyce's , motto (which she swiped from the I northwest boys) of "get your man.” , With his weight and height, Campolo would be a very dangerous baby, indeed, if only he would wade in from the bell. But Campolo,' strong as a bullet and just as smart, refuses to step in there and fight it out. Instead, he stands up after the manner of a monufent and trys to box. And if you ever have seen a water buffalo attempting a polka, you have seen Campolo in the ’throes of a boxing exhibition. Watching Campolo manipulate that right hand of his is almost as fascinating as watching a pretzel bender at work. After tying himself in three or four varieties of knots, the big cowboy slowly tin- : winds, counts ten, rings a bell, and then —zoowie, out she goes. The fact that his fist, nirfe times out of I ten. lands on nothing more substan-1 tial than air, only tends to heighten the ef.ect of the ritiat. Good or bad. tomorrow's bout is i likely to go down in history as the ; battle of the creaking brains. For like Campolo. Schaaf has thoroughly mastered the art of slow and laborious thinking. If the two men happen to think at the same time the din is likely to be terrific. For when these babies think, they think out loud. What wc mean is you ! actually can hear the wheels go] around.

In Ixtuisiaua and Arkansas, < where no action was taken by state i officials, the price went up because i supplies were cut off elsewhere. j Even at the higher prices, the i purchasing companies could not get , oil. however, as those holding it I were certain that further advancesl would come. So sure was Governor Murray of victory that he refused to dicker with individual 1 companies, hut demanded that they ( get together, offer $1 a barrel—an-1 , promise to keep the price up there] —before he would reopen the Okla-' hotna wells.

the men working with him on the new administration in the following statement: "The specific object of the new government now being formed is to deal with the national emergency, that now exists. It will not be a coalition government in the usual sense of the word, but a government of cooperation for this one purpose. "When that purpose has been achieved the political parties will resume their respective positions.” While Mai Donald consulted members of his own party and the opposition in his job of cabinet making. I censensus named the following i men as members of the cooperation ' government: Ramsay MacDomtld. Philip Snow|den, J. H. Thomas, Lord Sankey, al! ilaborites; Stanley Baldwin, Neville 'Chamberlain, Sir Samuel Hoare. Lord Hailsham, conservatives; Sir Herbert Samuel, Sir Donald Maclean. and Lord Reading, liberals. The Daily Herald forecast the ] following list: Premier and first lord of the treasury, MacDonald; chancellor of the exchequer, Snowden; secretary for dominions, J. H. Thomas; lord chancellor. Lord. I Sawkey; secretary for India. Wedgwood Benn: lord privy seal and deputy leader in the house of com- ! mens.

Sir Samuel Hoare; secretary for labor.' Nevulle Chamberlain; home secre- ] tary, Sir Herbert Samuel; foreign secretary. Lord Reading. Britain's class struggle was ex-' pected to be increased in bitterness after the temporary national government. The trade unionists, representing at least 5,000.000 voters, consider that MacDonald, Snow-’ den. and Thomas "surrendered to' the enemy” instead of continuing to fight for the unemployed. The influence of the T. U.
