Yesterday the New York (Hants looked Invincible. Today they were staggering under a double defeat by the sixth-place Cincinnati Reds -t-beaten by two pitchers who hadn't won a game all year. The Giants made only two runs in 18 innings off Tony Freitao tnd I<eroy Herrmann and bowed to the Reds. 4-1 and 3-1. It was the tirst time in 16 years that Cincinnati has won a doubleheader from the Giants at the Polo grounds. The Reds have won more games from the Giants than any other team this season. Their record is three won. "three lost and ons tied. New York's unexpected setback paved the way for the fast-living Pittsburgh Pirates to challenge the Giants’ leadership. Hehind Guy Bush's stellar pitching, Pittsburgh blanked Brooklyn 4-0. and moved into a tie wiCti the idle St. Louis Cardinals for second place. The Pirates -trail the Giants by three games. With six playr-rs batting over .300 Pittsburgh has won 14 of its last 17 games and climbed from fifth to within striking distance of lie Giants. The Pirates six .300 hitters axe Vaughan .399, Young .392, P. Waner .322. L. Waner .318, Thevenow .318, and Jensen .311. Suhr, the Pirates’ weakest hitter with .237. is third in the National

BAER HUPES FOR EARLY KNOCKOUT — Heavyweight Championship Fight At New York Thursday Night New York, June 12 — (U.R) — Maxie Ba» r comes to New York today fearful that the cards are stacked gaainst him and believing that only a quick knockout | can prevent James J. Braddock from ‘‘stealing” the heavyweight championship from him tomorrow night. For the first time in his madcap career the California lothario is a worried man. He believes lie has already lost hi* fight with the j New York state athletic comniis- j sion against Art Donovan as the | referee. He knows that he is facing the most decided sentimental favorite since the gorgeous Georges Carpentier made that futile bid against Jack Dempeey. And he realizes that many of the tens of thousands who will pour into Madison Square Garden's Long Island bowl will be present with fervid hopes that by some j miracle Braddock will connect; with a knockout punch. It's the referee problem which I worries Baer the most. He has a dislike for Donovan bordering on actuaJ hatred. He believes that Arty, when in doubt while refer-j ecing a Baer bout, will rule for j the other guy. But the feeling of the fans will j play a big part. Every time Baer, swings and misses, there’ll be a, big boo. And every time that , Braddock so much as flicks Baer, the crowd will howl Its delight. Any right to the body will be cheered as a staggering blow’, and a tap on the jaw will tie hailed as a potential knockout. All of this ta bound to have its effect upon the judges and the referee. ißaer knows it. “I’m going after that guy from ihe bell." Kaer said at Asburv Park today. "If I can nail him tlie first time 1 hit him, I’ll nail him. I can't get a square shake in New York. I couldn’t no matter who the referee, but with Donovan in there it's hopeless. "There’s no use thinking about oiling up points, with the idea of keeping Ihe title by winning a decision. If it’s a decision it won’t j be ‘Baer wins.’ I've got to .win by a knockout.” MONROE NEWS Miss Francille Oliver is attending school at North Manchester.

She Calls It A Cook’s Tour NOBODY thought Katherine would make a very good wife. She seemed too frivolous. Always made a game out of everything. Hadn’t a practical thought in her head—so it seemed. Maybe that’s why she does make Ed such a good wife. You still wouldn’t think she was serious about a thing. Yet she must be. Because you’ve never seen a house kept better in your life. Or a budget balanced more neatly. Most women come home from shopping all tired out. Not Katherine! She makes a grand game of it.. • call* it her weekly “Cook’s Tour.” She pores over her newspaper like a travel map ... charts a course that takes her to bargain ports... and gets there without one wasted step. How? She follows the advertisements. Wauhethem as closely as a sailor watches his compass. And she gets fun out of it a11... But who wouldn’t with a happy home like hers and her knack for saving up money! L
