GIANTS FEEL THEY'RE BACK IN THE RACE

'INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE I NEW YORK. Auk. 15. Feeling like thy were hack into the National league race Spain the New York Giants were prepared for their final douhle-header of their prtscnt furies with the- Reds. The two victories of the Giants yesterday and the fact that about a dozen near fist fights took place on the field, were expected to draw a trowi that would tax the capacity of the Polo grounds. The sun vn shining' this morning and the Indications wre that the weather this morning und the indications -vere that the weather would he favorable for the two battles this afternoon. Teterday's near battles started when Luquc, who succeeded Bresslrr. in the second game as the Red pitcher "heanej" Snyder, the hifr Giant catch. From then on the opposing players were on the Ncre of an actual outbreak continually. The umpires chased Benton to the showers, however, and always mitred in time to prevent open hostilities, Moran planned to pitch Hod Filer and Ray Fisher this afternoon. Jess Barnes and f;ube Benton will probably he McJ raw's select ion. Benton worked only a couple of innings yesterday.

THE Giants had reduced the fleds' had to four and one-half games today.

KECKE ILL LEADING THE

Friends of Popular Hammond Player Had Better Quit Riding Him for a Time.

"Keckie" Moll finally succeeded in tiuielinff a lot of fans who are in the habit of riding him continually, game after game. He rubbed it in and sure made these habitual knockers like it a hen he emerged from last Sunday's Sinse with four clean hits in four times at ht giving him a perfect average of 1. 000 for the day. The killjoys who are always after Moll will probably be surprised to see,h:m heading the list in this week's batting averages with a nice little old percentage of .4o5 as a result of 5 hits in 11 times at bat. The averages to date are as follows:

and as his Chevrolet car is a Tread y there he will begin practicing when the course is opened Tuesday at 11 o'clock for official practice.

RUTH set a now American League record by polling his seventeenth home run of the season in the. slaughter of the White Sox by the Red Sux.

LP Gavvy Cravath ceased managing the rhilins enough to get in the game himself and poie out a few hits but he could not stop the Cardinals who grabbed off both ends of a double bill.

Fans w ill please observe- that Kenne ly has been at bat oftener tha ni;y fian on the club, also he has made more hit;, than any other player. Walsh is the lader in three departments having scored the most runs, hit for the greatest number of total bases and receivj eleven bases on balls. Kennedy leads in sacrifice hits with 3 and Herman Blank is in a class by himself when it eoines to stealing bases. Next Sunday's game with the Gur.thers will attract one of the biggest crowds that ever witnessed a seruipro game in Niesen's park. Hammond fns are planning to make the trip in b;a numbers, some going in machines, others win take the 11:55 Moron and quite a few are figuring on catching the street cars to 63rd and then direct to il, j irk on the elevated. Those wishing to procure their tickets in advance may obtain same at Monnetle's Ciga- S'ore. where reserved seats are now cn sale.. The Gunther park is located at 4Ttli avo. and Lake street.

DURANT ON WAY HERE FOR MOTOR RACE AT ELGIN

Cliff Purant Is now on hi? way from the Pacific coast to pilot his Chrevolet special car in the Fl:n road race and he has hopes of annexing first place here so that he will be the undisputed road champion for 1313. It is more than likely that Purant will give up racing if he comes under the wire in the lead at Elgin, for his father, who is the head of the General Motors, would like to see his son quit. Purant will arrive in Elgin Monday
