GIANTS AND YANKEES BOTH ON TOP TODAY AFTER CRUCIAL SERIES
(By Associated Press) NEW YORK, July 29 Both New York clubs are again showing the way in the major league pennant races today as a result of decisively beating
their St. Louis rivals in the two "crucial" serine. The Yankees on top for the first time since June 16, held a margin of a half game over the Browns. They
took their third straight from Fohl s clan 7 to 3, Witt leading the attack with two doubles and a homer, while Sam Jones returned to form, holding t Louis to 6 hits. Ken Williams cracked out his 23rd homer in the first inning. The Giants made it 4 out of 5 from
Mespath, L. I., under the auspices of
the Empire A. C. in 1895. The gruelling battle ended in a victory for Lavigne because, under the articles of agreement, he was to receive the decision if Walcott failed to Btop him. Lavigne was then the lightweight
champ. Walcott agreed to make 133 pounds. Writers of that time say that Walcott made hamburg steak of Lavigne early in the fight Lavigne's recuperative powers amazed ringsiders. Later in the fight he even seemed to improve and, boring into Walcott, almost stopped the negro. Walcott w-on the title "Giant Killer" when he fought Joe Choynski. Walcott stood 5 feet 1 inches and weighed 143 pounds. Choynski stood" 5 feet lO1 inches and weighed over thirty pounds i more than Walcott. The negro stopped
jnoynsia in the seventh round. Walcott battered Choynski into a weak
ened state with body blows and then dropped the bigger man with a leaping right to the jaw.
Walcott was born in the West Indies and started fighting in 1S90. His early victims included Tom Tracey, Mike Harris, v Gibbons and Dick O'Brien. Among the other noted men he fought were Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, Honev
Meioay, Mysterious Billy Smith, Kid Carter and Rube Ferns, from whom Walcott won the Welterweight championship. The bans had been published for the first time in a country church.

And that curve of his was about the widest thing that ever was tossed plateward. Whenever Rusie shot the ball toward the batter .it started from an angle very wide of the plate.
