Pace-Setting Reds Face July 4th Jinx CINCINNATI, July 25. — The often-quoted remark that the baseball team in first place on July 4th will win the pennant doesn’t always hold true. It hasn’t held true for the Nation- al League for five years. Take the New York Giants, for instance. In 1934, 1935 and 1938, the Giants were first on independence Day. But some other team won the champion- ship. And in 1936 and 1937 the New Yorkers were trailing on the holiday, but they won the flag. And so that is a jinx that the Cincinnati Reds must buck if theyre to cop the flag this. season. The Reds, up to yester- day, still hold a good lead. - LAWYERS GO WESTWARD Ten prominent lawyers, who at- tended the recent Bar Association meeting in San Francisco, are roundtrippers aboard the Baranof.
