July 1— <U.R> - Th- • New York Giants today held their | longest lead of the season in th> ; National league pennant race, an B*4 game margin over the second place Pittsburg Pirates. Brooklyn, which knocked the (Hants out of the pennant in n , closing series last season, offered , no obstacles to New York's pen nant progress yesterday as the Terrymen battered down the Dodgers twice. 7-4. and 5-4. Mel . Ott was the hero of the Giants two triumphs. He hit two homers, bringing his season's total to 16. His second homer gave the Gian's three runs, and eventually proved the winning blow. Ott aved the second game bv leaping three feet in the air and snaring Sam Leslie’s long fly. Tony Cuccinello followed Leslie with a homer which would have tied the score. but for Ott’s catch.

Even the transitional permd Ihiougli which the industrial worker and city dweller hgg passed in recent years does not match e revolutionary change which the farmer has experienced. Several actors contribute to the upheaval in American curs’ life. One apparent paradox lies between the trend toward “bigger and better" arms and the policy of the AAA in fostering subsistence hornsieuu levels despite the surplus of farm commodities. At the bottom of the change in the agricultural system is the increasing mechanization of farm work Improved implements and methods of farming have 1 tended to freeze out the small farmer and stimulate the process of I specialization in agriculture.

BAER MAY QUIT I FIGHTING GAME Ex-champion’s Bride iv Opposed To Continuation In Ring XI S New York. July 1. —IU.R) — -" ax i 1 Bm r's return to the ring seemed I f '!to depend today on the approval.

She never wants her Maxie to be • champion again. In a. startling ex--1 hibltion she demonstrated that the ’ subtle powers of feminity may be ’evoked even over such an Irrepressl!ible spirit as Baer's. „ "I think fighting la awful." she I said. "I hate it and 1 never want | Max to fight again.” Max smiled, but was silent, lie clearly had no inclination to dis-1 cuss his pugilistic future m the presence of his bride. The question of religion entered] I Into the "Abie'S Irish Rose" romance. Mrs. Baer, who said she I ha l not failed to hear mass every 1 week in all her life, said she hoped Ito reconcile her church to Max's •previous divorce. J "I certainly hope I'll be able to I reconcile the marriage with my I l church.” she said, "if not, I real--1 izc I’ll be ( X-communica cd, but 1 m i willing to face it.’ Ba.'T would not say if he intended becoming a Catholic communicant.
