Their main object was to impress Jum Mullens, who has the rights in Comiskey's ball park. No doubt Latzo will show there, as the fans are good and hungry for fights.

In the first place it is well nigh impossible to snak up on him. He will always either unconsciously or instinctively turn in the rescuer’s direction and will always make a grab. When he does he will either grab an arm or get a hold around the neck. Many men experienced in the life-saving game will give the sinking man a hold on their wrist, or grab their: If the person to be rescued takes hold first, twist the hold loose by jerk- ing it back and forth or up and down.

ROIT, Junc 5—A first-division berth was at stake in the three- game series between Nationals and Tygers scheduled to begin today. So closely bunched are five of the clubs in the American League that at the outset of the series here it was possible for the Nationals to be either in second or sixth position after the conclusion of Monday's en- gagement. So the battling in Cobbtown promises to be more than warm. To emerge from the series in the select upper bracket of the John- sonian circuit, however, Bucky Harris and company must win at least two games here. Anything less would leave them behind the Tygers, who, with a couple of victories, would be assured of fourth place at worst.
