SENATORS BACK IN LEAGUE LEAD Double Victory Monday Gives Washington Half-game Lead New York. July 25-(U.R)—The American league penmint race, rhe most bitterly contested flag bailie tn years, was at its com-■ pe'ftive peak today because: (II Washington, a determined, hard lilt ing young club, was again j in command ol the lead. (2) Only a half-game behind. | the rallying Now York Ya’ko- s were resuming play on the road, at Boston, where In June they started their worst slump in three years Cl) Both clubs were fighting hammer-and-tong to gain any ad vantage before meeting in the senso 's first “crucial" series at Washington on Thursday. Appreciating this intense rival- • ry ind the smouldering ill feeling between the two clubs. President William Harridge of the American league arranged to be present during the series at Washi.’gion in case of a renewal of their fistic . fend. Manager Joo McCarthy* yesterday bolstered his pitching staff by , the acquisition of George I hie.! former Cleveland and Giants, pitcher.

They have not been , plaving the super-baseball which enaided them to roll up a clubt batting average of .306 and click ‘ off 23 victories in 26 starts. But ■ they are playing a game which for | the past 10 days enabled them to keep stride with the Yanks, and because of their youth and pep they’ll probably improve. The Senators have won seven ; out of 10 against the Yanks this season. While New York and all other major league clubs were idle yes- ; terday. the Senators took both I ends of a twin bill from the Phila- i delnhia Athletics. 5 to 2. and 10 , to 6. This boosted Washington . in'o first place and dropped the ' Yanks to second. These victories were gained at I the expense of Connie Mack's ace ;

“I’m happy to be here," Amy told the welcomers. They were taken to a hotel. There, too. there was a crowd of well wishers. One of the women in the crowd with a distinct Scotch burr in her voice called out “Scotland forever. Jimmy." as the two were taken in wheel chairs into the .hotel. Mollison is a Scot.

Mrs. Mollison said there are rwo thi.gs she wants to do while here —meet some famous American pilots, and pilot an Amercian plane. “I've met Mr. Post and Amelia Earhart and Commander Hawks, and there are others I hope to meet," she said. “I have never flown an American plane and 1 want to. “If our flight had been successful we had planned that it would i be a climax to our flying career. We planned—if we had succeeded —to get a cottage in the country and rest and enjoy ourselves for a while.” i Plans for an official city reception for the British couple were indefinite pending their recovery. j The city will give one of its famous receptions tomorrow for Post. Today he will lie the guest of the aeronautical chamber of : commerce at luncheon. Post has no definite plans at present but wants to fly to Oklahoma soon with his wife to visit friends.

PROPOSE LAKE ATLIMBERLOST State Conservation Department Is Reported Making Detailed Sunt .' , Portland. July 25. ( Special > - I The proposed Limberlost lake and park in the community of Geneva. > may soot! be a reality instead ol only a dream. For several years ever since the death of Mrs (icne ■ Stratton Porter, rumors have been lout that a lake would be created hi honor of the famous authoress, but until just a few weeks ago nothing definite was ever accomp lished. Recently, however. It has been' learned, the Indiana Department of I Conservation has been making a detailed study of the community known as the Lob region and it is | said that the state will provide aid, in making the lake and the park ' It is understood the state is sei iously considering the construction of the park and lake as a project to relieve unemployment hi north eastern Indiana, and may include the proposed construction among the public improvement projects. Several influential Portland bus iness men have been pushing the I matter, and the Geneva business I men are also vitally Interested as I the creation o fsuch i pa. k would ‘ mean much to the town of Geneva. The proposed lake would come I (within a half-mile of the town ofi i Geneva, and would extend about ‘ i three miles southwest of the town lin the lowlands in the region of I the Lob. Because of the fact that there is no lake or state park in this sec tion of Indiana, it Ls considered very probable that the state will ' finally take a hand in the matter and get the thing underway.

The public's duty, he emphasizi ed. is to support businessmen who abide by the agreements.
