CUBS LEAD LEAGUE THROUGH DEFEAT OF PIRATES, 8 TO 5 Hedvy Bombardment in the Eighth Breaks Up a Seesaw Battle.

KtLBANE RULES BIG FAVORITE Itl each 1 0c Spent BOUT TONIGHT! . Wfc :

Til Cuba clouted their way into first pla.c in the National league pennant race yesterday at the west side park. After a see-saw combat with

the Pirates the Chlcaroans brought forth a pretentious rally in the eighth Inning that won the struggle for them

by a score of S to 5. The New York Giants were idle be

cause of bad weather; consequently the

ffrera sluggers passed them and took : possession of the top place in the per

centage column.

It was a corking game of ball to look at. So many runs came over the

home plate that a few White Sox fans

there became dizzy from the unusual sight. First the Cubs were in front by one run. scoring once in the opening round. In the third the Pirates took the lead, counting twice. In the sixth the Cubs regained the lead, scoring twice, and in the first of the eighth the Pirates broke to the front, batting in three tallies, only to have the Cubs come right back at them in their half and whale home live men.

Uphold Title in Battle With Dundee.

CHANCE OUT OF GAME. New York. April 29. Manager Prank Chance of the New York American league team, after several days of ac

tive service at first base, will lay off again for a while and Hal Chase will return to the corner of the diamond

with which he is most familiar, accord

ing to announcement. Chance has been

ordered by Trainer Barrett to rest un

til his injured leg is in good shape

again. Lelivelt is booked to succeed Chase in center field and Derrick, who has been nursing a spiked hand, to get

back into the game at short.

Los Angeles. Cal.. April 29. Being a

world's champion, Johnny KUbane is a pronounced favorite over Johnny Dun

dee, with whom he is to clash in the Vernon arena tonight. There will be something radically wrong if it were different. A championship match in which the title holder is not the first choice is a rare occurrence so rare that no one can clearly recall an instance of that kind.

It is easy enough to remember cases in which "the other fellow" should have been the favorite. But these are painful memories to the wise men of sport-dom.

As ivllbane is an extra talented

youngster, possessing everything a

champion should have from a perfect defense to a knockout wallop, he is

more of a favorite than ever. It is no

more than right, of course, that he should be firmly intrenched with the Los Angeles fight fans, but lives of other champions oft remind us that hero worship can become too fervid at times. The reasons for Kilbane's popularity

with the Los Angeles fight goers is apparent to any one who keeps track of ring events. They saw him outbox Abe Attell, and that before there was

any serious talk of Attell "having gone back." It was, in fact, prior to Abe's two blistering bouts with Tommy Murphy, and as-these were admittedly the two hardest engagements that either Abe or Tommy ever figured In, ny claim that KUbane won from Attell when the latter was on the down grade could not be made to stick.

LORD PULLS FOR GRIF. New York, April 29. -If the American league baseball pennant goes to Washington nobody will be more en

thusiastic than Sir Cecil Arthur Spring-Rice, the new British ambassador. Sir Cecil today announoed him 'self a fan. ' He qualified many years ago, he said, for this is his fifteenth visit to the United States. He also is Interested In college rowing.

Sox Magnate Intends to

President C. A. Comiskey of the

White Sox plans to increase the seating capacity of the south side park

from 30,000 to 45,000 for the season of

1914. The changes contemplated will involve an expenditure of more than $150,000. One bid already received is

$118,000 for part of the work.

When these changes have been made

White Sox park will have the largest capacity of any baseball plant in the

country. Polo Grounds, the home of

the New York iGants, could equal or possibly exceed these figures by the erection of new bleachers to conform

to the rest of the work.

Comiskey does not think that he will

need such an immense seating area ev.

ery day, but says he wants fans to feel

sure they will be able to get a seat on

Dig days and Sundays. There Is a growing demand for grandstand and

pavilion space, and Comiskey figures

tha,t the . increased attendance result

ing from the knowledge on the part of

the fans that seats were assured,

would pay for the additions in a few

years.

Oxford and Cambridge have not yet

received any Informal invitation from

The secretary of the Oxford Athlgic

union however, expressed the opinion

today it would be impossible to send a

June, as examinations would then be

in progress, while the month of July

would, he thought, be too hot.

No action will be taken by the Eng
