Farrell United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, June 17. —Impending collapse of the New York Giants is making a contest out of the National League pennant race and is supplying one of the big features of the maturing baseball season.

Leaving home for an invasion of the TVest, the Giants had a lead of seven games, and they looked like a cinch for the championship.

The American League still looks like a battle between the Philadelphia Athletics and the Washington Senators. The two clubs are still separated by half a game. Some critics are expecting, the Athletics to blow up, but -they are still playing the aggressive game that got them away to such a good start. Walter Johnson, the old noble, is still the mainstay of the Senators. NAVY STRONG May Be the Crew to Defeat Washington. Bti Times Special POUGHKEEPSIE, N. Y., June 17. —Perhaps the coaches are merely playing smart poker, deceiving one another as to the true condition of their crews, butVm the surface of things the great University of Washington boat-load confronts a strong challenge in the varsity race of the Regatta which will decide the intercollegiate rowing championship again next Monday over the fourmile Poughkeepsie course. Washington, winner of last year’s race, and favorite for that reason Among others, was sent over the full JBstance ir a trial run Tuesday. “Rusty Cauow, the coach of the huskies from the far West, clocked them at 21 minutes 38 seconds and was not satisfied even though it was the first time trial of his boys since they reached the Hudson banks. The Navy’s eight had done the same trial in just 21 minutes the day before and it is generally agreed that the boat that beats the Navy will win the race.

TU N N EY IN FIVE BATTLES Gene on Tour—No Hopes of Meeting Dempsey for a While. Bu Times Special NEW YORK, June 17.—Gene Tunney has no hope of fighting Jack Dempsey this year and very little desire for that matter. Realizing that another twelve- months of luxurious living and idling will bring Dempsey into the ring with an unbroken three-year stretch of inactivity behind him, Tunney is unwilling to force a match for the championship this summer and devote the interval to the concurrent tasks of perfecting and collecting. Gibson Arranges Dates Billy Gibson, who lost one meal ticket when Benny Leonard got fat, but picked up another when he purchased Tunney’s contract for a pint of shillings, has arranged five dates for Tunney within the next six weeks or two months. Gene will go on tour, upsetting a selected group of top-heavy tumblers for exercise and profit, beginning with a bout at East Chicago, Ind., with Tiny Tim Jim Herman of Omaha. His next patient will be Italian Jack Herman, the sleeping beauty of Hackensack, N. J., who used to be Luis Firpo’s favorite partner. Kansas City will be the site of Herman's titantic slumber, and July 3 the date. St. Paul Booking Rochester, N. Y., St. Paul and Toronto will be the next three stops on Tunney’s tour. In the fall or winter Tunney probably will fight the winner of the Harry Wills-Charley Weinert bout of July 2. Tex Rickard will try to entice the winner into a match with Tunney at the new Madison Square Garden, and thereby build up the war veteran for a magnificent promotion at one of the bal yards when the flowers bloom aga .
