Max Carey's Brooklyn Dodgeis are soaring toward a first division berth In the national league's pen nant fight. Victors In nine of their last 11 games the Dodgers were in fifth place today, only a game and a half be hind the fourth plice Boston Brares. Their last triumph a 4-2 verdict over the Chicago Cubs was gained at, the expense of the sensational rookie right-hander, hen Warncke. It was Warneke's fifth defeat against la victories. Three of his losses have been credited to Brooklyn. Werneke held a 2-1 lead going Into the last half of the eighth after a great duel with Freddy HeJmach but the Dodgers got to him for three runs and the ball game. Johnny Frederick's pinch double drove In the winning run. The Cubs lost no ground in the pennant chase, however, for the league-leading Pittsburgh Pirates ac cepted their fourth straight defeat at Philadelphia, 11-6 as Chuck Klein cracked his 31st homer of the year. The Phillies now trail Chicago by only one game and Pittsburgh by six. Boston rallied for one run in the , ninth off Diyzy Dean to turn back the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-3, - while ' Waite llovt scattered It hit to eive the New York Giant a 3-2 decision! over the Cincinnati Reds. - j In the American league, Washing ton whipped the Chicago White So, i 4-1 behind Alvln Crowder's six-hit pitching. Young Bill Chamberlain made his debut for the White Sox and allowed the Senator only five hita but his teammates' three errors cost him the game. The St, Louis Browns made It three in a row from the Boston Red Sex, 6-4, bunching five bits for four runs off Bob Weiland in the second Inning. Ed Durham went in and held the Browns to one hit for the next five and one-third- Innings be fore retiring for a pinch hitter. The Browns' last brace of tallies were scored off Boener.

FIND IT HERE Copy for this Colusa be in by a. am. By Johnny Farrell (As Told to Artie McQovern) Tou can aave yourself much fret ting and probably several bad shots, If you wait until the foursome ahead is on the green before you drive off. Do all your hesitating on the tee, not on the fairway. The success of your golf game de pends largely upon your mental, at titude, and with a slow foursome ahead, it is Irritating to have to stand on the fairway behind your ball before you can play. ' However, this Is not true at the tee. Your foursome can chat there In a relaxed manner, so that by the time the match, ahead has reached the green, you can play right through without waiting for your second shot. Naturally, with the increasing popularity of the game courses are crowded during the week-end, but if your foursome will wait as I sug gest, you can get much more en joyment put of your game. Gus Sonnenberg Is Sentenced to Jail LAWRENCE, Mass., Aug. 3 (JPi Gus Sonnenberg, former claimant to the world's heavyweight wrestling title, was lound guilty Tuesday of driving while under the influence of liquor and driving to endanger. He was sentenced to pay a fine of 9100 on the first charge and to serve three months in the bouse of correction on the other. He appealed and was held in $600 ball. A -charge of manslaughter against the wrestler, based on the fatal In jury of Patrolman Richard L. Mor- rissey in a collision between the of' fleer's and Sonnenberg's automobiles two weeks ago, was dismissed. Sport Slants ' By Ainu J. Gould (Associated Press Sports Editor) It Is a strange circumstance that finds. two or the world's greatest swimmers. George Kojac and Leonard Spencc, missing from the Olympic aquatic carnival. Kojac Is the fastest of all backstrokers while Spence 1b the peer at breast stroke swimming, The case of Spence is relatively simple, since he happens to be product of British . Guinea, which has no outlet for Its athletic talent in the Olympics and found no way to attach himself to another delega tion, as did has brother, Walter Spence. of the Canadian team. Kojac's absence Is more difficult to explain, although his frlendB be 11c ve the responsibilities, of making financial ends meet, in his quest of n medlcnl education, caused him to abandon plans to enter the Ameri can trials and defend the Olympic backstroke championship. MIHNKI) TRVOL'TS The fact remains, however, that railroad . tickets were bought for Kojac to make the trip from New York to Cincinnati for the tryouts. that he assured the American coach. Bob Klphuth, he would be on hand and that he has not yet ex plained his failure to appear. Kojac had gone so far as to do some preliminary tralnln, on Kip huth's invitation, at New Haven. Without him. the United States will have difficulty defending the Olym pic team championship against the strong challenge of Japan. In addition to his superiority at backstroke swimming. Kojac would havo been r good bet to win the 100 meter free style from Barany, the Hungarian r star and present favor ite. MND.OF HIKING SWIMMERS The rise 'of the Japanese in swim ming. Klphuth tells me, is one of the real sensations in sport. They have come up to equal terms with, the rest of the leading swim ming nations, including the United States, within a period of eight yea re devoted to concentrated de velopment, training and competition. "Every boy In Japan knows how to swim.' soid Klphuth. "I was amazed on my visit there last year to find how thoroughly they adopted western, methods and stimulated nationwide interest. The Japanese, as a nation, develop strong leps and this Is a great nat ural asset in their swimming prowess. "They have turned in some aston ishing performances and the only question in tlie Olympics is whether their younger men. under pressure for the first time in international competition, can do their best." Milliont Spent on Structure It Is Impossible even to estimate tho cost of St. Peter's church at Uome. This church, which ts prob ably the largest church edifice In the world, hns been centuries In the building, and the question of money cost hns not entered into the mat ter nt oil. Millions havo been spent both for the structure and for tho decorations. Hear the band concert Friday eve ning and be served some ice cream and cake on Methodist church lawn.
