GAR WOOD WINS RACE TROPHY American Wins Easy Victory When Kaye Don’s Engine Fails Monday , Detroit, Sept. 6. — (U.R) Kaye Don. j England’* determined speedboat , challenger, laughed at the Jinx I which foiled ids llarmswortli trophy . attempts for two successive years . and began planning tor a third shot . at tile coveted plaque next Septem , her. , The first move, the blond British- . er said, was to find out exactly I what happened to the engines of his record-shattering Miss England , ill. causing them to stop in yester-1 i day's crucial heat of the Harms , worth classic on Lake St, C air. j permitting Gar Wood in his Miss . America X to eliminate him with- , out a fight. After Don had taken a momentary lead at the start of yesterday’s : second heat, his starboard engine stopped. While the craft limped along on one engine, the mechanic. Dick Garner, tried frantically to get j it started. Nearly two laps hid ! been covered when the port engine stopped and Miss England came to a standstill. Meanwhile Wood's! boat continued zooming around the several laps of the 33-mile course. Don's white-hulled craft which set a world's record of 119.81 miles an hour in Scotland, has been hoisted out* of the waters at his boat well and several mechanics are taking ; down the motors carefully, in hope lof finding out why the failed. Meanwhile the Englishman assured questioners that he would try again next year. He said he was disappointed at yesterday's mishap, i but he emphasized with a cheery smile that he was not the least discouraged. It was Wood's second victory: over Don and his seventh successful defense of the British donated trophy, emblematic of the world's competitive speedboat supremacy. STANDINGS NATIONAL LEAGUE W. L.

Pennant Bee Buzzes in Brooklyn By HARDIN BURNLEY ‘-HiS GREAT STICKUJO(2K HAS HELPED Tc ATAICE THE \ DODDERS A FORMIDABLE * \ CLUB !M THEMAT'L LEAGUE \ ' S/ PEAiAWOT SCRAMBLE / |\\V M £ Teamccs Syndkaic, Id*. . Gnat Bsiraju rights tcservctl | X

THE spectacular winning spurt | of the Brooklyn Dodgers, which has been a feature of the National League battle royal for the past month or so, added one more thrill to the stormiest pennant race of modern times. Sensational winning streaks and heart-breaking losing streaks, alternating ups and downs following each other with kaleidoscopic rapidity in this most exciting of pennant battles—it all goes to make up the most thrilling ! sort of baseball melodrama And i the fans love it, even though all the I suspense and high tension stuff i gives them chills and fever and makes it tough for guys with weak hearts! The Dodgers deserve a world of credit for their sensational rise from a second division berth to a position as pennant contenders in the short space of less than a month. As you may remember, the Brooklyn team was badly crippled even before the present campaign started when their star first baseman, Del Bissonette, met with an accident in a spring training session that put him out of baseball for the rest of 1 FT.

the year. This cruel twist of fate was followed by a heart-breaking succession of accidents, crippling some of the Dodgers’ most dependable players. Wilson, Frederick, O’Doul, Stripp and Phelps were among those who sustained painful injuries. But in spite of all, Manager Max Carey refused to be discouraged. He remained on the alert, snapped up Danny Taylor, who had been cast off by the Cubs, and nflule him into a brilliant star in a few weeks. He developed young Van Mungo into a very capable righthanded pitcher. He handled the veteran moundsmen Heimach and Thurston with winning results, and even succeeded in getting Dazzy Vance to buckle down to hard work. And Carey's labors were not in vain. The Dodgers embarked upon a magnificent winning drive and climbed into the front rank of pennant contenders; while Max himself was rewarded by the Brooklyn club owners with a very generous salary increase when they drew up his 1933 contract. Max has made good, no matter how the present pennant ! race turns out. The most spectacular feature of

the Dodgers’ spurt has been the tremendous stick-work of the famous Brooklyn Bomber, Francis Xavier O’Doul. Lefty was struck by a pitched bail during spring training early in the year, and sustained a painful injury to his right wrist. As a result, he was unable to swing a bat for three weeks, and even when he returned to action, he played under a severe handicap, since his wounded wrist continued to pain him. This injury prevented him from getting much power into his swings; and instead of crashing out line drives he usually belted out grounders which were scooped up byenemy first basemen and turned into easy outs. O'Doul’s injury continued to bother him until the Dodgers struck hot weather on their second western trip. The heat took the pain out of his wrist, and then Lefty started to pound the horsehide with all his normal vigor. And he certainly made up for lost time—so much so that he looks like a good bet to grab the National League batting title this year just as he did two i seasons ago. A great hitter, this j O’Doul -and a very game guy. Cop>rlgbl. 1932. King Fe«Uir«a Syuli.at*. lo*
