The Cards reduced the Giants' lead to three and one-half games. The Giants have 12 more games' to play and the Cardinals 14 games. The Dean brothers each have a record of six victories out of seven.

Cakland Fortland Sacramento ALBI TORVINEN VISITS BRIEFLY WITH PARENTS‘ Albi C. Torvinen, former member | of The Empire’s circulation staff,|qay. now employed by the Puget Sound Light and Power Company at Se- attle, was a roundtripper aboard the Northland. Mr. Torvinen visited his parents, Mr. and Mrs. John Torvinen, while the Northland made the trip to Sitka and return. He also.“sat in” with the Juneau City Band at the concert at the Southeast Alaska Fair Saturday night, with his trombone. ., BOWDENS ON NORTHLAND Edward Bowden, wife and son, arrived on the Northland from Sitka. Mr. Bowden is in the em- ploy of the Warrack Construction YACHT RACE IS & DISAPPOINTMENT Sallmg Crafts Fall to Make it in Time Limit— Rainbow Ahead BULLETIN—Newport, Sept. 17.—The British yacht Endea- vour won over America’s Rain- bow by two minutes and nine scconds today. The Rainbow’s spinnaker split just as she was bearing down on the Endeavor, whose crew was crowding on sail. The accident occwrred when the wind shifted and doused the spinnaker near the finish. Of all the Moeres who have clut- tered up major league box scores since whiskers went “out of style in baseball, the double order of merit belongs to Joseph Gregg Moore, leadoff man for the world championship Giants and who will do as our candidate for thle Nation- al league’s most valuable player honor for 1934 under any and all circumstances. Moore is one of the main an- swers to the oft-asked question: “What holds those Giants up, out- side of their pitching?” Moore is, of course, only one of the out- sthnding causes for, the sustained supremacy of New York for the second successive year. i Moore hasn't scored as many NEWPORT, Rhode Island, Sept.|.yns as Terry or Ott.

He was a ball player - the ‘objet! of his dancing lessons was to prove it. His ‘name was Hank Green- berg, and he’s one of the main rea- sons why the Defroit Team is leading the American League to- d}eenberg has been winning ball] games with his bat and losing remember. The burly figure of Lou Gehrig had something to do with Green- berg’s decision to sign with the Ti- gers rather than the Yankees. Greenberg, an aspiring first base- man, had hopes of getting to be a big leaguer but he never dreamed of being good enough to beat Lou point.

Undoubted- | 1y, the Tigers' scout stressed this; (1) 'a penthant for~ banging the first opposing pitch for a base hit and (2) the knack of rising to the emergency with potent attack- ing gestures. “IN THE CLUTCH” Two recent examples will suffice to show how useful Moore can be in what baseball players know as the “clutch.” The first was during the opening game of the last cru- cial series the Giants played in St. Louis. The Cardinals had battered the great Hubbell for a substan- tial lead while Paul Dean appeared to have the visitors subdued. Trail- ing 2-3, in the ninth, the Giants ‘had two men on when Mgore cénte ‘throbgif | w:':"\ home. fun, Against the Phillies in the second game of a double-header, Moore dupucnzed the "stunt, giving the Giants a sweep of the day's play' antl increasing their lead to scven, full, games .oyer the faltering Car-| dinals and Cubs. Moore belongs to the unobtrusive type whose ability doesn’t get real recognition until he has been around for some time. The late Ross Youngs, John McGraw’s fav- orite outfielder, was the same sort, and he, too, came from Texas. Moore’s hitting and all-around play formed one of the few bright spots, outside of \the pitching, dur- ing the recent slump of. the world champions at bat.
