CUBS THREATEN ITOTAKE LEAD FROM CARDINALS Cubs Winning; Streak Snapped But Only Half Game From Lead New York. June 22- <U.R> - Chicago's fast stepping Cube threatened today to retake the National League lead so rudely snatched from them a month and a half ago, by the St. Isjuis Cardinale who; are undergoing somewhat of a chastening process on their cur-1 lent road trip. Separated by a meagre halfgame. the two clubs opened a four-game scries today against second divisioners the Cuba vs the Boston Bees and the Cards vs the Philadelpphia Phillies. Since May 25 when the Cubs | occupied sixth place in the stand- \ ings. they have made tip six and one-half games on the Cardinals most of the gain being an'counted ■ for in their sensational string of victories which was stopped ati 15 straight by th© last-place Brooklyn Dodget© in the second game of a double-header yester- j day. The Cards have dropped five out of their last seven games, losing their first two series of the road trip After winning the opening en counter, 7 to 2. 4he Cubs were tied with the Cards a few minutes yesterday for the leadership until they fell, 6 to 4 before Van Lingle Mungo's artful hurling in the nightcap. Bill Lee became the first Cub hurler to lose a ball game since June 3. The Cardinals outhit the Giants, but fell 6 to 4 as fat Freddie Fitzsimmons did some masterful relief pitching for Al Smith. Six home runs featured the Pittsburgh Pirates 7 to 6 victory , over the Philadelphia Phillies. Aiky Vaughan clouted a pair of four-baggers and Suhr one for the Pirates while Dolph Camilli collected a brace and Sulik one for <the Phils. Berger's Sth home run of the year with one on base in the ninth inning gave the Boston Bees a 3 to 2 decision over the Cincinnati Reds. In the American league, the leading New York Yankees lost their first series of the current road trip, by succumbing. 8 to 7. to the Detroit Tigers who played before a record home crowd of 40.000 The Boston Red Sox split a double-header with the St. Louis Browns, winning the first. 3 to 0. behind Wes Ferrell's two-hit hurling. then dropping the finale, 6 to 3. Third pkice again was taken over by the Cleveland Indians, who dealt out an 8 to 3 licking to the Washington Senators. An eight run sidurge in the seventh enabled the Philadelphia Athletics to come from behind and defeat the Chicago White Sox. 11 to 5. Chubby Dean, a pinch hitter, got two singles in that one big inning. Yesterday's hero: Wally Berger of the Boston Bees who rapped out a home run in the ninth with a mate aboard to give bin team a one run maj-gin over C-iucinnati. —o — Portland Juniors Seek Ball Games The Port.'and Junior city softball team is seeking games with anyj team not over 18 years of age.

McLemore, chairman of the Society-for-the-Reward-of-Patience-and Blind-Luck. As outlined by the chairman in the foam of a bottle of beer on his desk in a midtown stube, the monument will be patterned after the stome mountain memorial in' Atlanta and the George Washington carving in the Black Hills of South Dakota. “The major problems of the project already have been ironed out'',] enthusiastically declared H. McLemore. “All we need now is a mountain and lots of money. The moment we get the mountain I will journey to it and establish a summer residence. Then, too, for three months. I will prepare It for the assault of the sculptor by shooting all the game off. the place. As you know, nothing so annoys a worker in stone as to have a pheasant fly across his face when he's clipping out a set of eyebrows, say If there doesn't happen to be any game on the mountain I’ll look elsewhere for a site, for we’re not Interested in erecting our tribute on a hill even birds won’t live on.

' shotgun.” The chairman was asked how Henry Mcl-emore felt about being immortalized in stone. "We had a little dllllculty with him at first," H. McLemore admitt ed. “His extreme modesty. you ( know. Said he thought a mouu meat on a mountain was u bit vulgar and garish. He agreed that his pick of Schtneling was an achievement worthy of recording for posterity, but suggested a trim, seaworthy. 75-foot cruiser with a crew of 20 or so. as a much more sensible tribute ihan, to use his own words, 'a mesa of sciupture.' He capitalized, however, when promised that if there was any graft to be made on the job (and there always is on a project this size) he would get first shot at it." Chairman McLemore said there was no way of telling just what figures and scenes would be portrayed ou the mountainside. “We plan to give the sculptor a , ton of chisels, a boxcar of hammers, all the dynamite he wants, and an absolutely free hand." he said. "I don't believe in restricting an artist to a pocketful of blueprints. If. however, the sculptor (and 1 believe it finally will be Congressman Zioncheck) should come to me for suggestions I would advise something like this: “A heroic figure of Schtneling holding McLemore aloft by one leg, after the manner of Miss Liberty and the torch. Scattered about ( Schmeling's feet would be all the , wrong picks McLemore made before he finally named a winner. Of' course, this heap of losers would constitute a real problem. In the first place, it would require fully ; fifty years to carve them all. In ' the eecotid. to get them all on one mountain they would have to be made so small they wouldn't be' discernible from 20 feet. If the [ losers were made even half-size we'il need tint one mountain, but j an entire range. And I don't be-; lie-vo the government would allow 1 us to utilize the entire Appalach- ■ ian or Blue Ridge chain." My suggestion, chairman, is that i you choose some simple carving. I Why not McLemore and Schmel- 1 , ing riding aid ‘-saddle of Grand ‘ Eslarn?

U. S. PAYROLL, ' EMPLOYMENT UP 1 - 88,000 Workers Returned To Employment In Month Os May Washington. June 22«- (U.R) — The department of labor reported today that 88,000 workers were returned to employment during May. Weekly payrolls increased $6,700,000 during the period. Secretary Frances Perkins termed the statistics “most unusual" because May usually ©hows an employment and payroll decrease because of seasonal declines. Comparing May. 1936, with the same month last year, employment increased 650,000 persons and payroll©! were up approximately $36,000,000 weekly. j The statistics showed that “factory employment, contrary to the seasonal movement, rose in .May. The gain of 0.6 per cent in flactory employment indicates the return of more than 43,000 workers to Jobs, and raises the employment index to the highedt level recorded since October, 1930.” Miss Perkins reported that •'■twelve of the 16 non-manufac-I taring industries surveyed showed j gains in employment, offsetting . the declines in the remaining four Industrie© and resulting in a net gain of almost 45,000 workers."

REDS PLAY CUBS IN NIGHT GAME Third Night Game Os Season Al Cincinnati Monday, June 29 Cincinnati, Juno '42 (Special) Nothiag tells the story of the Ini- ■ provement of ’he Reds lietter than la comparison of the standing of the 'team with Ils standing of a year ago and two years ago. On this date Iwo years ago the Reds were 24 games below the .500 mark. In 11935 on this date they were II games below the even Stephen rec ord. Today, as they start their| aeries with the Boston Hees, the Redlegs have an even .500 rec ord. The remarkable part of the improvement of the Reds is the fad that it has been accomplished with bery little assistance from two men on whom manager Dressen counted heavily. Babe Herman has been able to hit only around the 250 mark so far, and Gene Schott hasn't pitched as well as Charley expected him to. Then too. while Derringer has won eight games, he has lost seven, which isn't a pace ' which would compare with Ids 1935 performance. Kiki Cuyler has been one of the biggest assets to Ihe Reds this year. Kiki was signed last summer when all other clubs had waived on his contract, ne wasn't able to be of much assistance to i the Reds in 1935, but this year he !is hack in ids pristine form, and 1 according to latest records, was leading the club in times at but, runs scored, hits, doubles, home runs and stolen bases. The hitting of Kampouris and Myers, as well as that of Scarsella, has been valuable to the Redleg cause. These three youngsters seem to be getting better constantly. and closely linked with their success is the success of the team. The Reds have a .500 record against the first division teams with sixteen victories and sixteen defeats. The Reds wind up their eastern trip during the coming week and return to Cincinnati to open anoth er home stand on Monday. June 29. On that date the Reds and Chicago Cubs will play a night game, the third evening contest of the season at Crosley Field. ' There is a possibility of a renewal of the hostilities that flared I In Chicago the last time the Cubs and the Reds met. On that occasion the two teams engaged in a free-for-all which wound up with English and Johnson of the Cubs being fined, together with Leo Stine and George Kelly of the : Reds.
