CUNTS AGAIN SHOW POWER IN NATIONAL CAGE New York Wins Fourth In Row; Cardinals Maintain Lead New York. June 24. (U.R) 4'ol. William Terry'* New York Giant*, one of the most erratic clubs in baseball, have done an abrupt about face and today were playing like champion* again. Rise of the Giant* began with the re Installment of Travis Jackson at third base where Terry had been trying out his Baltimore recruit, Eddie Mayo, whose lack of l>ower ut hat was costing the New Yrokers plenty of batt games. The time that Jackson spent on the tjench during most of the Giants' recent road trip when they . lost seven out of 11 games evi-| dently did him a lot of good, lie, has been smacking the ball allj over the lot since Terry put him back in the lineup. He has hit safely in the last eight games with a total of 14 base knocks, including three home runs, his first fourbase flouts this year. With Terry playing first base as often as his creaking knees will allow, contributing more than his share ot batting power, the Giants have suddenly come to life—winning their last four games against such formidable opposition as the St. Louis Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates. Jackson yesterday contributed three single* in four times at bat as the Giants downed the Pirates. 3 to 2. Terry knocked his first home run of the year, but it was Whitehead’s circuit blow in the fifth that gave the Giants the winning margin. Pittsburgh holds third place now by a mere halt game. The St. Louis Cardinals took a 3 to 2 decision over the Philadelphia Phillies to retain their scant game and a half leadership over the Chicago Cubs. Pepper Martini

FIREWORKS TO PRECEDE GAME • Fireworks To Precede Cubs-Reds (same At i Cinci Monday Night > i — ■ —• ■ Cincinnati, June 24.—Fireworks will precede the third night gamo ' of the season Monday evening, between the Reds ami the Chicago Cubs, al Crosley Field, and It Is i Chicago Cubs, at Crosley AR TH quite possible there will be alioth j er kind of fireworks during the ■ bull game itself. When the Reds , ami Cubs played their last series ut Wrigley Field in Chicago there i was quite an explosion. After the smoke had cleared several members of both teams were ejected from th<- game and had to pay tines totaling |3OO for starting a battle-royal. Like so many lights, the Chicago affair ended before either side had gairn-d complete satisfaction. Geo. Kelly and Lee Stille were the ringleaders for the Reds, while Woody English and Coach Ray Johnson led the attack for the Cubs. There was mu< h swinging, renewing the old Cubs-Reds feud which flared several years ago when Ray Klop was with Cincinnati and Hack Wilson was with Chicago. The night game Monday will! mark the return of the Reds after an invasion of the east. The club will he at home for three' weeks, acting as host to all the! dubs in the league excepting Pittsburgh. Interest in the Cubs should be | at fever heat Monday evening for several reasons. Not only is there, bitter rivalry between the Reds i and the Cubs ante-dating the re-1 cent melee, but the Cubs are in I the thick of the light for the Nat-1 ional league pennant. It will be | recalled that Charley Grimm, manager of the Cubs, said before the i season opened that his team would i take the Reds in stride. Well, the' Cubs have been fortunate to gain : an even break with the Dressen; aggregation so far this season. ' The Cub series, which will include afternoon games Wednesday j and Thursday in addition to the' Monday night qontest, will give J Cincinnati fans an opportunity of. seeing Ethan Allen and Curt Dav' Is in Chicago uniforms for the ’ first time. Both of these players nave assisted miguTily in the Cubs' | recent fine play which was marked by a fighteen-garae winning streak. The Reds seem definitely to have an improved ball club this year. The hitting of three young sters, Myers. Kampouris and Scarsella, together with the great work of the veteran, Kiki Cuyler. Is responsible for the ability of the Reds to hover around the .500 mark. The pitchers seem to be improving steadily, and fans of Cincinnati are confident the club will be knocking at the door of first division all year, ready to step up in ease any one of the leading four falters Double-headers are scheduled for July Fourth and for Sunday, July 5. against the Gas House Gang St. Louis Cardinals. o Promptly at 6 o'clock this evening the auction starts.

Great Lakes Exposition Opens Saturdayjune2 7
< WITH bands playing, thousands of gay-colored pennants whipping in the lake breeze, and with massive exhibit structures shimmering in the sunlight, countless numbers of eager spectators will pass through the towering pylon-en-trances of the Great Lakes Exposition when that gigantic 150-acre fair opens its doors on Cleveland’s lakefront next Saturday. r Opening day activities at the fair, which celebrates Cleveland’s hundredth birthday and one hundred years of progress in the vast trade empire of the Great Lakes area, will be given over to a panorama of colorful festivities and special events. Radio broadcasts in the afternoon and evening will bring to the nation the news of the opening. I At night, the huge Exposition will be a gorgeous fantasy of illumina-, tion. These lights will be turned on by the “man in the moon.” As the rays of the moon flash on the “eye" of a powerful telescope, an impact of light will strike a photo-electric cell, which in turn transmits the impulse to switches controlling the lights. For visitors to the Great Lakes Exposition there is a vast variety of free entertainment. From the huge orchestral shell, directly north of the fair’s main entrance on St. Clair avenue, will come the melodious strains of concert music played by the Great Lakes Symphonic orchestra of 100 pieces. f Opposite tlie Plaza and inside Cleveland’s beautiful Public Hall, scene of the recent Republican National Convention, will be the Exposition's Radioland. Here, in the largest broadcasting studio in the world, visitorswill see and hear the greatest stars and acts on the radio networks. In the Municipal Stadium, the J gorgeous Marine Theater built on
