GAR WOOD’S 124.91 MILES-AN-HOUR SETS BOAT RECORD

Detroit Yet Shatters Briton’s Mark by 5.16 Miss America X Makes Two Flying Trips Over St. Clair River to Crack World, American Standards for Speedboats; Orlin Johnson Mechanic. By United Press ALGONAC. Mich., Sept. 20.—Gar Wood, veteran Detroit pilot, drove Miss America X to anew world's record for motor boats on St. Clair river here today when he sent the huge craft hurtling twice over a measured nautical mile for an average time of 124.91 miles per hour. Over the nautical mile, Wood was timed in 124.41 for the first run

and 125.42 for the second run for an average of 124.91 —the new world’s record for motor boats. A nautical mile is 1.15 statute or land miles. Timed over a statute mile during the same run, Wood made 124.74 miles per hour on the first run and 124.69 for the second run for an average of 124.71 which sets anew American record for the statute mile. The international record is for the nautical mile while the American record is for the shorter distance —the statute mile The old record was held by Kaye Don, who sent Miss England 111 at the rate of 119.75 over a measured mile at Loch Lomond, Scotland, on July 18, 1932. Wood exceeded the record by 5.16 miles per hour. Miss America X was lightened nearly 1,000 pounds from her racing weight for the run by removal of four gasoline tanks. Her four twelve-cylinder Packard motors, turning up 6,400 horse power, were beating a steady tatto as Wood and, his mechanic, Orlin Johnson, headed into the stretch of quiet water with timers checking the

movements. There was no falter as Jofinson slowly opened the throttle wide and let the boat extend itself to the utmost for the run. _ “ w f s an example of sheer strength combined with superior design. Tot i weighed seven tons as it was run today yet it rode the waters with just a minute portion of the two steps on the the bottom touching the waves.

Yankees Have It All Over Bruins in Outfield; Much Depends on Ruth

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO Sept. 20. —Man for man trio for trio in the field, on the bases or at bat, the Yankees’ outfield is vastly superior to the Cubs’ combination. The Yankees have Babe Ruth, veteran of nine world series; Earl Combs, one of baseball's best ball hawks and lead-off men, and Ben Chapman, the major league’s leading base stealer. The Cubs have Riggs Stephenson, a courageous and hard-working player; Johnny Moore, neither a great batsman nor outfielder, and Kiki Cuyler, finishing his worst season in nine years in the majors. The only uncertain element about the Yankees’ outfield is Babe Ruth’s physical condition. If the Bambino

Chisox Seek Macks’ Stars It!/ United Press CHICAGO. Sept. 20—A break-up of the present Philadelphia Athletics team which would involve trading outfielder A1 Simmons and pitchers Lefty Grove or George Earnshaw for pitcher Ted Lyons of the Chicago White Sox and other players was reported under consideration today by Connie Mack, Athletics manager. Mack denied he had decided definitely to rebuild his team. The trade was reported as part of a plan of owners of the Chicago team for strengthening their club.

is back in shape, he alone may produce enough power to wreck the Cubs. In nine previous world series, three with the Boston Sox as a pitcher and six with the Yankees as an outfielder, Ruth has made thirty-seven hits for an average of .325. The only series in which he failed to bat .300 or better since he has been with the Yanks was in 1922 against the Giants, when he hit only .118. In every other series he has been a batting terror, making thirteen home runs and twice making three homers in one game. Ruth will play left field in the games at Wrigley field, Chicago, because right field is the sun field. If Ruth should be unable to play, or have to retire because of any reason, Sam Byrd, a faster man in

nois has won only one Big Ten game, and last year’s team lost all six conference games and was perhaps the poorest eleven Zuppke ever coached. In his nineteen years at Illinois, Zuppke never has coached three poor teams in a row—that in itself is a favorable omen for the Orange and Blue. Another is that eighteen lettermen are back and are bolstered by a veteran half back from the 1929 and 1930 teams and a bunch of promising sophomores. Zuppke is attacking his herculean assignment with a glowing enthusiasm that definitely points to a return to the winning tradition at Illinois. “This squad looks more like, the oldtime Illinois bunch,” says Zuppke. “The boys are leaner-looking; not so pudgy.” Illinois plays six conference games, and the season will be considered a huge success if the Illini should win three of them. Two victories and four defeats would not be a disastrous season and would mean that Illinois is on the way back to its erstwhile place among the Big Ten leaders. Zuppke’s big job is to knit together a line from sophomores reserves and comparatively inexperienced lettermen. He has two good ends in Fred Frink voted the most valuable player on last year’s team, and Ivan Schustek, who also played last year. Mbv* a Vof r * 190 *P°. un d sophomore, and Bob May. 191-pound Junior, are the two leading tackle candidates, but Zuppke con‘i“'is‘° other players to tackle ?n order to bolster this spot.

Cubs Need One Win to Clinch N. L. Pennant Bn United Press CHICAGO, Sept. 20.—A single victory in a scheduled doubleheader with the Pittsburgh Pirates today is sufficient to clinch the National League pennant for the Chicago Cubs. The Pirates arrive here today for a four-game series with the Cubs and a victory for the Chicago team in any one of the games was all that was needed to settle the title race. Guy Bush was picked to pitch the first game of today’s twin bill. If the Cubs take the title, Bush is expected to open for the Cubs against the Yankees in the world series. Bud Tinning was expected to start the second game today. As thousands prepared to jam Wrigley field for the event, workmen busily hammered on extensions of the bleacher sections to accommodate 8,000 more fans at the world series games which Chicago boosters were convinced will be played here.

Phils Seek Third in Battle With Dodgers

By Times Special NEW YORK, Sept. 20. Bure Shotton's battling Phillies were out to capture third place in the National League today when they tackled the Brooklyn Dodgers. The Phils moved within one-half game of the Flatbush flock Monday by taking a 5-to-3 decision over Max Carey’s men. Ad Liska’s brilliant relief hurling and home runs by Chuck Klein and Les Mallon gave the Phils the edge. New York’s Giants slipped back into a sixth-place tie with the St. Louis Cardinals by dropping a 6-to-

the field than Babe, but only a run-of-the-mill hitter, will replace him. Offensively, the Cubs’ outfield can’t hold a candle to the Yanks’ trio. Ruth, Combs and Chapman have scored 351 runs, batted in 294 and made 501 hits, as against 210 runs scored. 195 batted in and 425 hits by Stephenson, Moore and Cuyler. A comparison of their present batting averages follows: YANKEES. CUBS. LF—Ruth .118 Stcphensow 3.15 CF—Combs 321|Moore 309 IF —Chapman .. .382|Cuyler 289 Average 3241 Average 301 Stephenson, who perhaps has been the most valuable player on the Cubs’ team despite the fact he is nearing the end of his career, is Chicago’s most dangerous batsman, find yet he has driven in only eighty-three runs in the cleanup position, sixteen less than Chapman, who hits in seventh position for the Yankees. Combs in Three Series Two members of each team’s outfield have had world series experience. In addition to Ruth’s long world series record, Earl Combs has played in three series, but he got in the 1928 series only as a pinch hitter. In 1926 he hit .357 and in 1927 he hit .313. Cuyler has played in two world series, and has seen another one from the bench. He batted .269 for the Pirates against Washington <n 1925, was kept on the bench in the 1927 series against the Yankees and batted .300 for the Cubs in the 1929 series. Stephenson batted .316 in the series against the Athletics. 37 Thefts by Chapman Chapman and Moore will be playing in their first world series. Chapman, who has stolen thirtyseven bases this year, only six less than the entire Cubs’ team, is the youngest of the regular outfielders, being only 24. Moore, a lefthanded hitter, probably will be benched when Gomez or any other southpaw pitches for the Yankees in favor of Frank Demaree, 21-year-old righthanded hitter. Demaree joined the Cubs in July and has played in only eighteen games and batted .250. Kid Slaughter Stops Akers By Times Special TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Sept. 20. Another knockout triumph was added to the record of Sammy (Kid) Slaughter, Bud Taylor’s Negro middleweight slugger, here on Monday night. His victim was Jess Akers, the prominent Indianapolis youth who recently forced Roy Wallace ten rounds. A smashing right to the body put Akers down for the count just before the bell ended the third round, and Akers was unable to come out for the fourth stanza.

He will help Kizer with the varsity backs for the first few weeks, and then will help in developing freshman pastimers. The Boilermakers are hard at work perfecting a defense for the “five-man-backfield” offense which Bo McMillan’s Kansas Aggies will use against them in the opening game here Oct. 1.

Early Lead Won for Yanks; Not ‘So Hot’ Second Half

The difference in the big league races brings up an interesting topic for world’s series dopesters, and some observers are inclined to think the powerhouse Yankees are not so hot after all. The Yankees won their pennant as the result of a lead piled up in early season, and the Cubs are about to clinch their flag as a result of sprinting during the second half. Since July 15 until the present the Yankees have gained only one game on the second-place Athletics and two games on the third-place Senators. Yet today the Yankees were “in” twelve games ahead of Philadelphia and sixteen games ahead of Washington. Early season superiority saved New York a lot of grief.

By l nited Press NEW YORK, Sept. 20.—The 1932 world-series-ticket-waiting championship went to William Cunningham, a former railroad fireman from Kansas City, when he showed up at the Yankee stadium bleacher ticket window at midnight Monday night. He has only eight days to wait until the tickets are put on sale. He has arranged with a nearby bakery to provide him with food and with a garage manager to send an idle employe occasionally to hold his place in line. The garage man chipped in on his own account with a couple of old auto seats for a bed. Incidently, Cunningham is picking the Cubs.

Usually in a baseball race managers can go back anad pick out a certain series that saved them or wrecked them. In the case of the Yankees it seems the series with the Athletics beginning on June 1 in Philadelphia was the crucial set. Six games were played, the series was divided, and the Yankees left with a six-game lead untouched, never to be headed. In the American Association the series between Indians and Millers beginning in Indianapolis on Aug. 13 evidently settled the issue in the Hickey loop. Minneapolis emerged from a bad slump, swept the fourgame series, regained confidence and went home to continue the pennant march. The four defeats took everything out of the Indians, flag contenders at the time.

Tribe Wins Short Tilt Rain Shatters Bulbs at Colonel Park: Campbell Scores Shutout. By Times Special LOUISVILLE, Sept. 20. The lights used to illuminate the Colonel ball park are not of the same type as at Perry stadium in Indianapolis, and when it rains at Parkway field it is just too bad. The bulbs are unsheltered and the globes cost $4.85 each. Monday night the Indians and Colonels engaged in a series opener, and when a drizzle started in the sixth inning the light bulbs started to explode. Asa result there was Improper illumination and Umpire Johnston called the contest after six and one-half innings. Indianapolis winning, 3 to 0. Archie Campbell held Louisville to four hits and outpitched Claude Jonnard, ace of the Colonel staff. The Tribe scored one run in the first stanza and two in the fourth. The Indians collected seven hits, Ed Lowell, rookie first sacker, getting two, one for three bases. Glenn chapman, rookie outfielder, and Tom Angley, the Hcosiers’ robust backstop, went on the shelf with injuries during the action. The former injured his ankle and the latter retired with a mashed thumb. A foul tip knocked out Tom. The second skit of the series will be played tonight, and the series will be brought to a close with a double-header Wednesday afternoon.

Cathedral will receive a vacation this week, as no game was scheduled. Shortridge also remains idle, due to a cancellation by Stivers high of Dayton, O. With many veterans among the players who are working out under the guidance of coach Harry Painter and assistants, Manual should have little trouble with Noblesville. Washington will not find the easy task it had against Carmel when the Continentals tackle Kirklin. The Continentals probably will win because any team that can run up 104 points in one game evidently has a smooth-running attack. With eleven letter men on the squad the season should be a winner on the west side. Kirklin was the aggressor at Seymour last Friday, working both a fine attack and stout defense.
