CHICAGO CUBS MAKING COOD SHOW IN GAMES BATTING - BARRAGE’ IN| GAME WITH TIGERS | EAST AND WEST TO STRUGGLE IN KENTUCKY DERBY MANY COLTS TO BE ENTERED | N TRACK ACTIVITIES DUR-| ING PRESENT YEAR'S EVENTS | | ASSOCIATED PRESS HEAD- QUARTERS, May 11.—The Chi- eago Cubs, ,pennantless for eight years, today were within striking| distauce of the National league pinhacle. With a smashing offensive! dgainst the Robins and Pitcher} ssa Jess Petty, yesterday, the Cubs! Sande got the eastern colt, Flying qualified as the West's miracle team of the early searon. The Brooklyn Cubs, propelied on the shoots of brilliant pitching, had been setting a dizzy pace, and ly, Robinson’s southpaw ace, had won five straight games. For seven innings aga‘nst the Cubs he pitched as masterfully as he had from the opening day of the campaign. Then a base hit storm broke and triumph by nine| to nothing advanced Chicago to within half a game of the top. The New York Yankees, unseat: ‘ed us American league leaders by Wathington a few days ago, soar- ed back to the peak under a bat- ting barrage which subdued the Tigers, 13 to 0. Ruth, Gebr'g and Combs figured in the Yankee offensive. Washington fell with a thump to fourth place as the result of a shut out, 2 to 0, from Thurston, White Sox hurler, while three hits proved vufficient for Cleveland to keep pace with the Yankees and shar), the first place berth. Two oof 9 Bea abange with errors, gave men three runs in the| J » their winning margin. i , epposing Ehmke, hurled shut out ball. While the four leaders were ex- changing positions, the Athletics, balked by a slow start, picked up a little ground by scoring their seventh straight victory at the ex- pense of the Browns, 8 to 2. A triple and a home run by Simmons were telling blows in the Mack drive. ‘The Giants suffered their eighth defeat in ten when Cardinal extra base ’blows administered to Jack Wither his first defeat of the season, 5 to 4. Blades and Bell added home runs to the winning attack, SARASOTA WINS GAME MONDAY: FROM SANFORD LAKELAND COMES OUT VIC. TORIOUS BY DEFEATING FORT MYERS IN BASEBALL CONTEST (My Associated Prensa) ASSOCIATED PRESS HEAD- QUARTERS, May 11.—Lakeland went into the lead in the Florida State League yesterday by defeat- ing Fort Mycrs in a hard fought contest. The Lakeland team hit Williams hard in the first inning and scored six runs. Sarasota won easily from San- ford, six to four, breaking # losing streak of several weeks, Bradenton broke a tie in the ninth to defeat Tampa 8 to 7. The Smokers looked like sure winners with a 3 to 2 score in the fourth. Butler was replaced by Charlie Allen, The Smokers scored twice in the sixth and twice in the eighth but were unable to overcome the Growers lead. St. Petersburg defeated Orlando © to 5. The Saints trailed their) opponents until the sixth when) Culbreth weakened, allowing four runs. Probably no woman in the| world has read so many “mush” notes as Mss Shepherd, who has acted as private secretary to Mary) Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks, Ru- dolph Valentino and Charlie; Chaplin, and whose duties have consisted in dealing with the cot-| respondente of those famous film) players. | BEARUF’S DRY CLEAN WORKS ING | Home runs by, ' (Ny Ankocinted Press) LOUISVILLE, May 11.—Famed | im. sotig, story and Cal:fornia-made | movies, the Kentucky Derby this year will be the same traditional | struggle of east and west, with the | east better represented than it has/ been in the past few years. Ear!) Ebony, to the wire first in 1925, and the year before a western colt, Black Gold, was the winner of the | Golden Jubilee Derby. Now, for the “Rubber” year, a mighty invasion has begun. Pom- pey, champion two-year-old, due here t, colts which ran in the Pyeakness yesterday are scheduled to be shipped west. immediately. Failure of Canter and Bagen- bagge, two of the best liked of the Derby €ligibléa, in the Preakness yesterday, makes the Derby a more open one than ever. It is true that Pompey and Bubbling Overt, two fast ones, ate very much in the running, but the unexpected showing of some of the others has brought them also into the lime- light. There is much speculation among horsemen here as to what E. R. Bradley, master of Idle Hour Farm, will send to the post next Saturday. Bagenbaggage will not lose his chance if he came out of the Preakness in good shape, and it is presumed he did. Trainer R. Thompson likes the colt and considers him & handy one to have around at the finish. Bubbling Over will go, but of Babenbag- gage, Barcolo, Banco Suivi and Boot to Boot, the tra‘ner has not disclosed his intentions. That two, ahd poss:bly three, of the Bradley horses will be in the run- ning seems certain, -It is hardly likely that more will be started. Louisville will entertain the | largest Derby crowd that has ever thronged to the city. Already hotels. are being filled and thou- sands of visitors are here, but the influx does fot begin in earnest until Friday. Railroad and other. transportation officials estimate a crowd of 125,000. ~Chicago, with an estimated 20,000, will lead.

To prove what we say about Camel’s tobacco quality, make this test: : ‘Take a Camel and any other cigarette. Tear off the papers and place the tobaccos from the two cigarettes in separate piles. Now shake them up and examine the to- baccos. Your own eyes will quickly show you the difference, how the Camel tobacco is longer and of a riper color.

The tobacco tells its own story You will at once notice the rich, fragrant aroma of Camel tobaccos not found in the other. This marked difference is even more apparent when you “taste the smoke.” It is solely because of the quality of the tobaccos and the skill of the blending that Camels never tire the taste, never leave a cigaretty after-taste. Camels are so good that we know you will like them. Give them every test known and you will find Camels the highest quality cigarette made, regardless of price. -Have a Camel!
