The leaders of the American league pennant race, who threat ened to leave the other teams so far behind that thoy would bo practically out of sight, have found some tough sledding In the past two weeks. They aro not yet serious danger, for the only real "menace" thut has arisen during their western tour has come from the Ht. Iouls Drowns, who were In last place when tho trouble Btarted. After rushing far ahead of all the teams except Washington, the champion Philadelphia Athletics have scored Just eight victories to six defeats with Cleveland, highest ranking western team, still to be faced twice more. And to mako things look a bit tougher for tho A's, the three aces of their pitch ing staff, wabbling badly at times, have accounted for alt but one of these victories. Kuriislinw Wins Ooorgo Karnshaw turned In his second victory of tho tour yester day as the Athletics' slugging brought an 11 to 7 victory over Cleveland In the series opener. Washington was dropped to nn oven break for tho 14 games in the west as the Browns handed them one of their worst beatings of the season by a 7 to 0 count. It was tho first time all season the Senators had been shut out and George Illaoholder did a great job of It, giving one hit In the first Inning nnd another In tho ninth. It was the Browns' 12th victory In 4 games at home agulst eastern clubs. Boston Steps Out Boston, wonkost of the eastern clubs, pulled Ita avornge up a llttlo liy stopping out behind the six hit pitching of Danny SlncKuyden to beat the Chicago Whlto Sox 7 to 1.

As an amntetir, Tllden combated chnrgos of professionalism or nt least of coinmorclnlsm. As a pro, 110 11ns manifested nn amateur spirt of competitiveness hardly cal culated to prolong or stimulate tho Interest of cash customers. Tllden's tour no doubt has drawn well enough to net a tidy return, but Dig Bill has doue no "slough ing" designed to helii tho "bulldun". from town to town. Koieluh Should Know Koxeluh, who now has the dubi ous distinction of having boen bent enjnorojinies by Tllden than any other player, amateur or pro, finds nothing mystifying In Big Hill's sweep of the series with Vincent Hlchnrds, whose youth has never onabled him to keep up with the tall Phlladelphian. Aside from the fact that Vinnle plnyed Wll Improperly, from the standpoint of tactics, Kozeluh In a tennis maguzlne notes: "The second reason for Vlnnle's defeat lies not with Vlnnlo hut with Big Bill himself. I maintain, In all honesty and sincerity, thut Tldon, as I have known him in sevoral matches of our tour, Is unbeatable. No player today In the world, Cochet .not excepted, will beat Hill ns I have known him. "The pace, the spin, power, de ception, speed, Rteadiness, accu racy, strntesy of Bill's tennis game are superb. Without n doubt Tllden today Is himself player he so of Hon wrtes about. He combines the best qualities of the loading players of the world. And he has sportsmanship to tho nth degree." ASHLAND FIGHTS GENTER INTEREST OF ELK VISITORS By dinrlcs Diuikloy.

VP) Safely back on tho ground after a daring airplane ride over his opponent's .training camp, 'Young Stribling ; hurled new defiance at his handlers today by suddenly an nouncing that he Would box again tonight In preparation for his quest of the -world's heavyweight championship. Stribling intended finishing his training last night, In accordance with previous plans. All prepa rations had been made for him to come to. Cleveland today' and to go Into seclusion -until time for him to go Into the. ring to battle Max Schmellng, the title holder, Friday night. But Strib ling, full of eagerness to get going, evidently decided to-defy his man ager, l'a Stribling, just as ho did In borrowing nn airplnno yester day and flying over Schmeling's training camp at Conncaut Lake Park, Ha. . Thrills for Camp. Stribling, accompanied by a New York newspaperman, borrowed a friend's plane in Akron, Ohio, flew over his own training camp at Geauga lnke and then headed to wards the Pennsylvania line for Schmeling's oamp, 93 miles away. Wl)ile the German wns In tho ring, hoxing the second round, with George Fnnka of Pittsburg, Stribling daringly zoomed his plane directly over Sehmellngs camp while the spectators gasped in excitement. Stribllng's plane was not more than' 200 tect above the spec tators. He returned twice to re peat the daring exploit nnd then Loss to Cup Team Tllden, if he had waited another year before turning pro, might nave attained ins goal of helping 10 nring back tile Uavls cup from France. Big Bill has done his might! est. under some harassing circum stances, ror three years lo turn his trick. Ho felt It was time to lot the younger rellows like Shields nnd Wood take over the job.
