The major league record is 26 straight wins, held by John McGraw's Giants, and set in 1916, This large number of. victories brought the Wichita Falls club from the bottom of the league in stand-| ings for the second half to the top, leading by three full games. © The winning series was cut short op Sunday, Aug. 13, when the Dallas )Marines defeated the lucky team by a score of 4 to 1.

After that they took a series of games from each team in the league with the excep- tion of Fort Worth, which feat they had accomplished, however, before the string started. In the 25 victories the Spudders scored 194 runs, as against 83 for their opponents.

DICTATOR : ay ee MAJOR JOHN L, GRIFFITH BY JOHN L. GRIFFITH (Commissioner of Athletics: of the Western @onference) (Written Expressly for-R: J. Gibons of the NEA Service) School and college competitive athletics constitute a utility in, our social and economic life. F fields that unwritten laws are largely: developed. Athletics are invaluable in_creat- ing morale, and in teaching lessons of loyalty and patriotism. In short, our athletics are too valuable to be dispensed with, and _ too important ever to be placed on the defensive. Believes in Sport I believe in our American games and sports and am glad to have the opportunity of working with the di- rectors of the Western Conference in carrying out a constructive pro- gram designed to safeguard athletics. 'The. ten directors are, practical men.’ They have no wild theories concerning athletics. They are not dreamers, and above all, each one is honestly. striving to improve ath- letics, not in the other director's uni- versity, but in his own, These di- rectros have established certain tules under which athletics in the confer- ence are ito be conducted. “ These rules are sensible and neces- sary for the development of athletics along the right lines. The majority of. people, when they. understand them, believe: in these: rules. Highest Plane, Sought One of the most important rules is the one regarding amateurism. Every one who understands the puepose of college athletics believes in the ama- teur principle to the extent of agree- ing that it would not make for the best in college athletics if the col- leges were to conduct their contests strictly on @ professional basis. Some would draw-the line one place a lot of thém are in such a hurry to get inside’the arena that they simply plank ‘fown their money; grab their. tickets and rush for the turnstile without stepping. to get anything back, no matter how much may be coming to them. oh “In one, show I handled recently. the gate was $59,000 and excited cus- tomers left $1800-with ‘me in change. “The forgetful streak’s so: consi: ent that you can almost figure in advance what the: left-over money will be. For instance, a $100,000 gate should yield from $4000 to $5000. “The most change I ever remem- ber one customer ‘as having left was $67 out of a $100 bill. ae “Pye made a study of faces and when one of. these forgetful. birds shows. ap with a complaint I-almost always recall and he gets what's coming to him.’” Once a Boxer Phil’s home is Patterson, N. J. He was a boxer. once. Now handling money is his trade. At one(show he sold’ $37,000 worth of tickets in an ‘hour and 20 minutes, and, at the fin- ish, found himself: standing ‘knec- deep. in bills. When a boy. he went to the race- track with $1500 and in a couple of, hours had ‘run it up to $67,000. He has an uncanny faculty for picking winners—something, like the once- famed. Pittsburg Phil.’ “He can pick fighters in the same:.way. At the Dempsey-Carpentier battle he named,' in advance, the ‘round and the blow that laid the. Frenchman out. Johnny. was the only other expert to call the exact turn. Campbell has. sold’ more’ than 41,0@0,000°fight tickets. He. expects to sell that many again, and more. —_—_______—_- Saratoa ‘Spring: h, winner of the Kentucky de-py was beaten by five’ lengths by. Sutf ‘Rider in the Greenwich handicap.

Notion’s Bunk BY. -BILLY EVANS. Is there considerable bunk to. the generally accepted chéory that'a ma- ity of the left-\:nded batters are weak against southpaw pitching? T have always believed so, because the really great left-handed batter never experience y great difficulty. in hittjtig southpaw: HoweVer, it is tradition in baseball that left-handed batters ‘are weak agninst left-handed pitching. Most major league managers work‘on that theory. ‘ Some ‘Managers even/go to the ex- tent of ‘having. lef. and right-hande‘ shifts, which they.‘ase to mect the selections ofthe . posing. manager. In sotne cases this stunt works out nicely because>~most right-handeu batters do like to hit against south- paws. I can name a dozen‘ major leaguers who, are .ight-handed: bat- ters and who are not in the .300 class, yet against left-handers* they are dangerous batsmen. SNS The use of the shift in baseball 18 more or less moaern. It was not practiced to any great extent 20 years ago. ? % This shift-has sen a bad feature for the ‘left-handed hitter who. is not in the Cobb-Sisler class. It tends to destroy confidence. Knowing that he will ‘probably be taken out when a left hander in the pitching, selec- tion of the ‘opposition, he loses his fight, and.succumbg.to\the generally accepted belief that most left-handers cannot hit souththaws, piréd’ between the Washington ai Detroit clubs some very unusual fea- cf the theory that I have been. expounding croppud out.

Because of its size, its progressive and efficient management, its ample _re- sources and unrivaled facilities, the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is able to provide the needful amounts of petro- leum products to supply the vast de- mands made uponit. Itsmanufacturing facilities are planned to anticipate these needs years in advance and always are ready for service. Its constantly ex- panding distribution system is growing as the need for this service grows. Even in the remote corners of the 40 states served by this Company, the dark green tank wagon is a familiar.and welcome visitor. No matter how the production of crude oil has fluctuated, no matter how urgent the demand nor how limited the supply, motorists will recall that not ones in the most stringeht emergencies of the past has the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) through any fault of its own, failed to supply their essential needs.
