World Results By Leased Wire GIANTS DRAW AWAY FROM RIVAL WITH DOUBLE WIN OVER DODGERS Cubs and Pirates Divide Honors as Brooklyn Drops Brace of Games to League Leader; Yankee-Red Sox Deadlock Unbroken. The National league plot which gave evidence earlier in the season of turning out “different” showed a marked tendency today toward the usual “happy ending” with the Giants and the pennant contently widened. By spanking the Brooklyn Dodgers twice, 6 to 5 and 4 to 2, the Giants showed that they were tired of fooling, The blows were dramatically ad- ministered because they came as the Cubs took only one from the Pl- rates by the score of 9 to 6. In the American, the Yankees had the throne alone an hour but lost it. The Yankees won their first from tho Senaters 7 to 4, as the Athletics beat the Red Sox, who are tied with the New York for first place, 2 to 1.° In the afternoon sessions, however, the Yanks lost, Standings | National League. ‘Team w.

Davis of the St. Louis made seven runs. The Tigers took the first, 4 to 3, Cleveland, using Joe Shaute, handed the playful Chicago White Sox a perfect zero in the first, the Score being 5 to 0, but using four pitchers in the second helped them naught, the White Sox battering them all for a 13-to-6 victory. In the National, the Braves re- ceived punishment from the Phil- les, the switch being yielded by Lee and Wilson, The formers’ triple and the latters’ circuit cloud ac counted for all thelr team’s runs in a 4 to 1 victory. A savage rally in the seventh tn- ning by St. Louis netting six runs beat the Cincinnati Reds, 6 to 0. Daubert was hit by a batted bal! in the first inning and was out of play for the day.

Cruise joined the majors in 1914 and played with the Braves and Cardinals. BILLINGS BOXER 5 OUTPOINTED Tommy Commisky Wins From Al Web- ster at Lavoye.

(Copyright 1924 The Casper Tribune) INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 29,— When the pigmy motored, frail looking automobiles "ne up Fri- day morning for the fifteenth In- dianapolis motor speedway olympic, it will be a far cry to the start of the classic In 1911 when Ray Har- roun drove his big Marmon to vic- tory at the astounding rate of 47 miles an hour. All of the 52 en- trants in the race this year must pass a qualifying test of 80 miles an hour and already some have shown a speed of 108 miles an hour in practice runs, The development of motorcom is told at the speedway. Harroun's lumbering old racer bore an engine with 6200 inches of piston disp!ace- ment. The tiny little spcedsters there now have been cut down to less than flivver size, with eubie inches of pisfon dirplacement. Last year, Tommy Milton, twice winner of the ‘classic, broke all speedway records by sending his car to vic- tory at the average rate of 90.05 miles an hour. Henry Ford, who took a turn at the racing game himself back in 1903, will be the referee and three of his products—75 per cent pure Ford—will be in the race under the name of Barber-Warnock Specials. It will be a contest of specials, with four Duesenbergs, five Durants, one Dempsey, one Hartley, on Hoo- sier, two Kess-Lines, six Millers, one Roof, one Mourre, one Sinclair, one Schmidt, one Wade, one Wells. Hornet and two unnamed entrants. making up the list. Many of the veteran pilots again will uncertake the gruelling 500 mile drive, among them being Clift Durant. the millionaire sportsman, die Hearne, Pete de Paolo, L. L. Corum, Harry Miller, Benny Hill, Tom Alley, Ira Vail, E: Cooper and Jimmy Murphy and Tommy Milton both former Speedway kings. But the foreigners who m things so interesting for the Amer ns in years gone by will not be this year. Not a_ single an entrant—unless the re built Schmidt can be called ono— has been entered. Ralph de Palma, who hung up the track record in 1915 and who twice had victory within his grasp in other contests only te be denied by @ strange quirk of fate, will be missing this year, having been placed on the outlaw list. Howdy Wilcox, an Indianapolis favorite ang winng in 1919 wi'l be missed, having died at the wheel of one of speedsteera within a year. s estimated that a crowd of 150,000 will pay $1,000,000 to see the races making it one of the big gent sporting events of the year. p Europ Well this isthe last day in Washington and we only make 1 more trip here this season and that is early in July which you can bet we are tickeled to death as late meat and gtocerys gets to the house they are all ready cooked.

STANDS IT Y Three Major Events of By HENRY L. FARRELL. (United Pres# Sports Hditor.) NEW YORK, May 29.—(United Press).—Three of the season's best and most. interesting sport spec: tacles are to occupy attention over the week-end and usher in what Should be the most crowded summer in the history of athletics, The annual 500-mile automobile sweepstakes will be staged tomor- row in Indianapolis; the intercol- legiate track and field champlon- ships will start tomorrow in the Harvard stadium and the Gibbons- Carpentier international “lig ht heavyweight match is to be staged Saturday at Michigan City, Ind. The three events are of world- interest and importance. The In- dianapolis automobile race is the oldest, richest and most important event of its kind in the world, The intercollegiate track and field championships carry the most pres- tige of any collegiate athletica in the world and the Gibbons-Carpen- tier contest will bring together twa of the most skillful boxers in the world. For three years the far west, rep- resented by the University of Cali- fornia has reigned supreme on the intercollegiate track and field. For three years the best athletes in the east have failed against a small squad of California athletes, whose victory was scored almost by a few great field stars. Three Pacific coast teams are en- tered th the championships this year and the hope of the east is slimmer than it had been during those three years. With the weakest team it has had in years, the University of Call fornia may not and probably will not wip, but there are excellent chances that the Pacific coast will finish one-two in the championship. Stanford university will start as the heavy favorite with the Untver- sity of Southern California as sec- ond choice, There seems to be in the east rfot a single team with enough distributed strength to finish better than third. The intercolleglates will be of far more importance and they will war- rant more attention than the meet would draw under ordinary circum stances. It is the first meet in which a large number of candidates for the American Olymple team are to be put to the test actically all of the Olympic ches will be on the field to look er the athletes from whom are to selected many members of the team that the United States will send to Paris. College athletes wer represented largely on the team that went to Antwerp in 1920 and per- haps 50 per cent of the team this year will consist of college men and athletes who are only a short time out of college. On the fast Harvard track it is possible that near to record time may be scored in many of the track events. In the field several records are expected to be lowered, y in the weight events, ree of the greatest young shot-putters will be foreed to the limit to wip.

There is to be no decision after the fight and even if he shoyll be outpo!nted, viich fs almost certain in the even: that he is not stopped, Carpentier veuld claim a ficht with Tunney for staying 10 rounds with the fighter who went 15 rounds with Dempsey. Gibbons is just as much Iinterest- ed in getting another good shot, as Carpentier is in avoiding the ter. mination of his career in that fight. Gibbons may have to do a lot of running to catch Carpentier and the length of the bout probably wilt be determined by the number of rounds that it takes Gibbons to catch up with him. Gibbons is not as flashy on his feet as the Frenchman, but the American has more effective ring speed than the Frenchman. Gib- bons bavors the body style of at- tack, and Carpentier certainly can- not take it downstairs. Gibbons is almost certain to get over a few short hooks to the body in the early rounds, and Carpentier wil not have much steam to carry him around when he hag taken & couple of them. NOTRE DAME’S CHANGES ON GRID NEXT SEASON NOT SO GOOD AS LAST By LAWRENCE PERRY. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune.) NEW YORK, May 29.—Having looked over the results of spring football practice and digested them, Kaute Rockne sends word east he doesn't expect that Notre Dame's eleven will be as good next fall as last. Rockne’s prognostication seems chiefly based upon the loss of sev- eral important players. Knute has mourned similarly in past seasons and the burden of his plaint has related to missing stars. But the fact will not have escaped the observer of intercollegiate ath- letics that this accomplished coach usually produces each year a suf- ficiency of to meet the needs of the season Consider what he did with Stuhl dreher. When the boy was in Kiski all the scouts of ous colleges that look to this prep school for material paid scant attention to him. He came to Notre Dame with no reputation and not much ability.
