land the Olanta third. Chicago han played one more game than St. Louis and won it —that gives the Cubs a 'a game lead. New York has played one game more than Chicago and lost it that puts tUe Giants a 'a game back of the ipace. The hottest epot in the race today is sportsman's Park, St. Louie, Where the Cards ami Cubs open a three-game series and a hand-to-j hand scirmish for the lead. Lon Warneke, winner of eight out of I'l games and an ex-Cub. was elated to i oppose Clay (Curleyhalrl Bryant, who graduated fro mthe relief ranks this season and now leads the League with six victories against one defeat, in his last start against the Cards Bryant licked Dizzy Dean, 6-3. Yesterday was an off-day for all major league chibs. In the. lull the three pilots of the National League contenders commented; | Bill Terry, Giants: "We re in a great spot if we can take advantage of it.” I Charlie Grimm. Cubs: "Donner end B'.ltzen, those Brooklyn* " i Frankie Frisch. Cardinals: "The gasbouse gang never quits.” Terry was speaking specificcally about the schedule which heavily favors the Giants for the next two weeks. The Giants next 11 games are with the weaker Eastern Clubs i The Cubs, during the same time, have five games wit!: the Cards and six with the Pirates. And the Cards have five with the Cubs and »ix | with the Reds. Another reason for Terry’s enthu-i eiasm is the double comeback of (carl Hubbell and Mell Ott. Hubbell came out of his slump and licked the Cubs and Cards in the two best games pitched by New York hurlers ' in the west. Ott, who went west hitting .197, came track batting .243. ‘ He belted six homers in the west ' and isn’t to be monkeyed with by any pither. Herr Grimm couldn't find a good American exclamation for hie ■ thoughts after what the Dodgers i d'd to the Cubs at Wrigley Field, so he reached in his German vocaliu- | lary and exclaimed. "Donner and Blilzeti (thunder and lightning)." j The Cubs were rolling along in high, with six out of eight against tlie east and then the Dodgers exploded in their faces, winning three 'straight. Nobody now with Brooklyn ever remembers winning a series from the Cubs at Wrigley Field. You have to go all the way back to Uncle Wilbert Robinson's regime for thatThe Cubs, loaded with pitchers and leading the league in hitting. . however, seem to be the solid team, quipped to service a temporary ! slump. As for the. Cardinals, the giants I proved once again that if you stop Medwick and Dean you've got St. , Irnuis cornered. The Cards have to win with Dizzy in the box and Medwick has to carry the team's attack. Mize, the No. 2 hitter, can't carry the offensive load when Medwkk isn't hitting. The Yankees, three games on top 'in the American League, are counting on increasing their advantage during the next week. While the | Yanks are engaging the Athletics j the next three days, the White Sox 1 and T-igers will be cutting each Iciher's throats in a battle for sec-

CHURCH LEAGUE GAMES PLAYED Zion Reformed And St. Mary’s Teams Are Victorious The Zion Reformed and St. ' Mary's softball teams were victors in the church league Monday night, scoring triumphs over the Union Chapel and United Brethren teams, respectively. Despite obtaining only two hits, Zion Reformed marked up a 5-2 victory over Union Chapel in the opening game. The winners obtained both their hits in the third, good for one run. An error accounted for another tally in the fourth, a walk and an error one in Hie tilth, and two scored in the sixth on four walks and one error. The losets drove out five hits but could not bunch their safeties. Holding a 3-2 margin at ~e end of four innings, St. Mary's crushed through with four hits and two walks in the fifth, and with the aid of two errors, defeated the United Brethren team in the nightcap, S to 2.

Today’s Sport Parade (By Hsnry McLemore) New York, June 29.--<(J.R) —Figuring, 1 suppose, that because 1 once operated a hope chest shop on the j Cape of Good' Hope that 1 must know everything about such matters, a middle-westerner named Fred Little has written me for full information on how to conduct a white hope hunt. As you no doubt know, the white hope season was opened a week ago tonight when Joe Louis bopped Jimmy Braddock on the protiie with a right hand so authoritative that it caused an immediate transfer of fisticuffs' most treasured prize, the heavyweight championship. I gain from brother Little's letter that Joe Louie had no more than draped the royal purple about his shoulders and gdtie out for a kingly mess of pork chops than lie (Little) began the organ- , ization of a white hope hunt. The first item in his questionnaire concerned the proper clothes for a white hope hunt. Were pith helmets advisable? Would he need hip booths? A snake kit? The best way to answer tills is to describe the costume worn by James J. Johnston of Madison Square Garden, when that intrepid explorer was on the trail of a white hope. He dragged in some beautiful I specimens in his day. and he never wore any fancy rig. His favorite costume was a black derby, a pinch-backed suit, and a pink shirt with tie, handkerchief, socks, and eyes to match. Little also wanted to know just how one could distinguish a white hope. Well, all 1 can say is thati one had better be able to dis-! tinguisli them because they certainly won't distinguish them- . selves. Without getting too specific, a white hope can be spotted from these general charactristics: 1. A lumbering, painful gait similar to that employed by elephants whose shoes hurt. 2. A slight sag of the lower jaw, and ears set at half mast. 3. A vocabulary in which the dominant words are “huh!", “glub," and “uh.” 4. A tendancy to fall backwards whenever exposed to anything more violent than the Impact caused by the switching on of a ligni. 5. A fondness for sleeping on canvas. The mid-western huntsman also inquired as to the best white hope hunting grounds. That’s a difficult question to answer, because the white hope has no set locSle. They re everywhere. The explanation for this is that white hopes usually are hungry and will go anywhere for food. White hopes have been bagged on farms, restaurant kitchens, deep below the earth in coal mines, in the cabs of train engines, in laundries, in the tops of trees, and — well, almost any place you care to name. They are not vicious. Your true white hope is as tame as a hen-pecked husband with a hangover, and will generally answer to a gentle whistle. Once caught they can be kept with safety anywhere but in a prize ring. Very little equipment is needed to bag a white hope. Most of the men » ' who hunt them use a small-bore II promise that fires a dum-dum con-j

tract. The contract stuns them, but doesn't harm the pelt. It is well to stuff them immediately after capture, preferably with steak and potatoes. Avoid mounting them in a ring as long as possible, because white hopes have a tendency to lose their heads at tliis point. (Copyright 1937 by UP.) 0 Trade in a Good Town — Decatur

Anti-New Deal Coalition? IN. J V f . S i mag**’j 1 ■ Mward Burke.[Senator Millard < 'll f • 1 Ha . | Ke 2k ? J I wr y mW : w iHI Senator Carter CtassljMgflW

Under leadership Chairman John M. Hamilton, the republican party is laying plans for 1938 and 1940 campaigns. In the belief that an anti-New Deal platform might defeat the present administration, many party leaders advocate a coalition of disgruntled Democrats and Republicans. Among Democratic senators who have opposed New Deal measures are Carter Glass of Virginia, Edward Burke, of Nebraska and Millard Tydings of Maryland.

By WALTER SEIFERT International Illmtrated News Writer NEW YORK—Now that Republican leaders have dug themselves out from under the ballot avalanche of last November, they are faced with the task of rejuvenating what is left of the Grand Old Party. Traditional grandeur of the once-invincible Republicanism is gone, and there are those who ciaim that by 1940 the party will j no longer call itself "old”. Preliminary survey of pronouncements by party leaders indicates that there is distinct division among them. Some favor alignment with anti-New Deal Democrats into a conservative opposition, while others wish to advance under traditional solidarity. Both Parties Spilt Realizing that the Roosevelt New Deal has caused conservative Democrats to break with him, many Republican chiefs believe j that a strict anti-New Deal plat- ! form would capture the 1940 election. That coalition, based primarily on the hope that the public will swing away from liberalism, would count heavily for support upon such Democratic figures as Burke of Nebraska, Copeland of New York, and Tydings of Maryland, who oppose the New Deal. The other group, opposed to unison with disgruntled Democrats, believes that it is best strategy to concentrate on making 1

gains in the 1938 congressional election. Leftists Choose F. D. R. There is no sizeable group among present-day Republicans advocating ultra-liberal policies. That is the New Deal platform, and most leftists are marching under the Roosevelt banner. In their efforts to build at all costs for 1910, Republican strategists have already expressed a willingness to support some of their local rivals for re-election, in the belief that anti-New Deal Democrats would be more helpful in office than inexperienced Republicans. Burke and Van Nuys of Indiana are among tne Demo- . crats who will have definite Republican support in thei: battles , for re-election. The task of rebuilding party funds for 1938 and 1940, together i with the responsibility of reviving public support, falls upon the : shoulders of red-headed John Hams ilton, national committee chair- . , man. Taking their cue from ! Roosevelt’s board of strategy, Republican leaders have surrounded l Hamilton with a halo of advisers. But Hamilton himself is none ’ too secure. Old Guard Republicans 1 were not pleased with his conduct I of the 1936 campaign, which left i the Republicans with fewer office- ■ holders than at any time since r prior to the Civil war. , Time alone will tell whether the 1940 G.
