Brooklyn Starts The Pirates have been doing some nifty base running, McKechnie being one of those who believe that a little pilfering here and there, and a hf: stretched now and then, ™may mean the difference of the win- ning or losing column before the scoreboard boy goes home. The Buccanters lead both leagues in stolen bases, with more than 100 to their credit. The Giants have stolen less than 60. Another team that demands’ at- tention, coming up out of the ruc is the St. Louis Browns. Out in St. Louls, a month or so ago, George Sisler drew raucous razzberries when he warned the wise ones to watch his. men work; before iid. five sames of the pacemakers; and there was trouble galore for any club that went up against the Browns. 4 The American League race has developed one of the best in years. The Red Sox made their threat, and looked like world beaters; over in Boston they glided up the sacred cod-fish and elected Lee Foti] mayor; but the joy was short lived and the beans ww cold as father waits noWadays for 2” Boston victory. Then came the Sénators with a rush and, for a time, they upset tradi- tion by making the pace. Detroit took up the white man’s burden for a bit, everybody figuring on some, way to beat the Yanks. But the latter, thanks almost certainly to Babe Ruth's magnificent exam- LEONARD PLANS FOR FIVE WEEK Must Improve - Timing Before Meeting Walker Next Month By FAIR PLAY. (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Aug. 18.—The fixing of the date for the Leonard-Walker bout for the welterweight champion- ship by the boxing commission for September 22 has presented Benny Leonard the lightweight king and contender for the welter title nearly five weeks in which to mend his sore thumb.’ The time, however, will also be utilized to the utmost advantage to mend Benny's timing and judg- ment of distance. The lightweight champion is wise «§ ought to realize that 1f he goes into the ring with Mickey in other than the best of con- dition, he will come out thoroughly trimmed. Reports from Firpo’s _ training camp at Saratoga are not optimistic. ‘A race track follower who has just returned says he watched Luis on the road a couple of days and that part of his traveling is at a walk. Still a walk is better than nothing and nothing was what he did at At- lantic City when he was training for Dempsey. This man says that Al Reich's left finds Firpo whenever Al lets it out and that the elongated fighter is giving» Luis a lot of good boxing practice. Al always was o winner in the gymnasium, but’ in the ring’ has’ al- ways shown to less advantage. Luis, the says, is doing a lot of rushing in all his practice workouts which ‘would indicate he has) been put hep to Wills’ style of waiting and then sending up a left or right. Luis, he says is coming in much lees wide open, but loks better than he used to. Later, when Firpo is farther along the writer expects to look him over and figure on his chances against Wills which, just now, to be frank, don’t look so good to the wise ones, even granting that present betting is favoring Luis. At least reports have it that way. But reports should always be taken PIRATES ARE MAKING MAD RUSH FOR NATIONAL LEAGUE PENNANT Between P, ittsburgh ANG!” cencano, Aug. 18, (United Press).

The Robins invade Forbes’ Field fresh from a double victory at Cin- cinnati yesterday by scores of 0 to 4 and 8 to 5. Blade bested Oeschger in the Cub mates bunched hits in the first. The Giants won a 7 to 5 exhibl- tion game, at Akron and the pulsing Pirates restrained themselves midly by making nine homers at Warren, Ohio. The Braves made four of their six hits off Haines in one inning and won from St. Louis, 4 to 2. Benton held the Cards to six safeties. Both Yankees and Senators gained a full game on Detroit in the Amer. ican league as New York defeated the White Sox 2 to 1 and Walter Cubs to four Johnson held Cobbs* blows and won 8 to 1. ‘Witt's double and Dugan's triple, two of the four hits made by the world’s champions off Hollis Thurs- ton, preceded a fielder’s choice to Ruth and gave Pentock a winning lead. of NEW HIGHS ON GRAIN PRICES CHICAGO, Aug. 18.—New high price records for the season were reached today by all deliveries of corn, oats and rye. Corn went as much as six cents above Saturday's finish, September corn reaching $1.24 and December $1.20. On the advance profit taking sales quickly broadened and top quota- tions were soon lost. Simultaneous with the fresh bulge in prices, an- nouncement' was made that one grain firm, caught on the wrong side of the market, had failed.
