Some good advice which should elim inate the necessity for crowding sporting goods stores for last minute Information Is Included In the fol lowing paragraphs, glesned by Wal lace Williams of Lamport from California nh and Oame: Tile cleaning of shotguns, rifles and pistols Is such an easy Job that most gunsmiths wonder why the Job Is brought to them. The only necessary tools are atwl wool, oil and clean raga, also rods for each. First, wipe out barrels with dry rags. Next cover rag with steel wool.

This applies to rule and pistol as well; no other tricks nro necessary. Except In high-power rifles uo plenty of nltro solvent before the final cleaning and oiling. Under ordinary circumstances this will be enough for all guns. In case of neglected guns, you may not have Ihe equipment the gunsmith has and In that case you mav use plenty of hot water while acourlng Inside the barrela and finish with a good swabbing, using regu lar ammonia If the fouling la heavy or of long standing.

Oceans P7 BRILLIANT SPUR!; TAKE 8 STRAIGHT (By the Associated Press) Completely out of the pennant race but hopeful of gaining a first division berth In the National league, the Pittsburgh Pirates have begun a brilliant spurt J use in time to do some serious damage to the chances of the teams they meet. Triumphing over Brooklyn 5 to 1, yesterday, the Pirates extended their latest winning streak to eight games, their longest of the season and left the Robins In the uncomfortable po sition of being within a half game of mathematical elimination from the struggle for the flag. Washington carried off the honors of the American league's only game, downing the Philadelphia Athletics 2 to 1 In a ten Inning game. The two exhibition games, ployed on an of! day for nearly all the major league clubs, netted 9 104, 131.00 for the unemployed of New York and Chicago. As 60,640 fans saw tbe New York Yankees beat the Giants 7 to 3. only three of the ten counters wero scored with the American league ball In the first five Innings while the rest, In cluding a homer by Babe Ruth, came in the last four frames. The results of the comparison were much the same In Chicago, w.here a crowd of 34.860 saw the Cubs and Charlie Root down the White Sox 3 to 0. YESTERDAYS RESULTS R. H. E.

(!3)Sp BY ALAN GOULD We were chatting about pitchers In the Pirate dugout at the Polo Grounds, while the boys were wait ing lor the showers to etop and the customers to come la for a double header. Wore the Cardinals any better this year than lu-st or was their runaway just a case of the other contenders beating themselves? 'A little of both," responded Jewel Ens, the chief of the Bucs and among the most amiable of big league managers. "The champions look better to me. They picked up a great young pitcher In Paul Der ringer. A boy like that makes It ca.sy on the rest of the staff. They have so many good pitchers there isn't enough work to keep them all bu'-.y . "Take a fellow like Grimes. He would like to be In there every three or four days. But he has to wait five. usually, before his turn comes around. "That's why there's no advantage In rcL-nlHug Dizzy Dean from Hous ton. Dean will be Just as good as Derringer, maybe better, when he trots a regular Job with the Cards He ha tho (-tuff to win 20 to 25 games a season. "The Cards nre an Ideal team for this new ball. So arc the Pirates, when we have the pitching, but we didn't get it until too late this year. Slugging clubs, like Brooklyn and Chicago, have felt the depression in butting. None Like Grove. Speaking of pitchers, was there anyone in the National league with as much spesd as Lefty Grove? "Probably not," said Ens. "1 haven't cen Grove since I was In the TnrernntlonM league years ago. CitORGE W. ItltL rUFiPrKT,Tl!E AMERICAN TOBACCO 7 ort Slants but he has plenty of stuff. Dazzy Vance hasn't so much speed any more, not aa much as Grove. Bill Hallahan of the Cardinals Is fast enough. Tills youngster of ours, Glenn Spencer, and Sy Johnson at the Reds, have about aa much on their fast one as anybody In the league now." 11)32 Young Blood. What about the Pirate prospect for 1932? .we had better not discuss that until we see whether I am under contract with the club for another year, but we already haTf acquired two fine youngsters Si Groekloss, from Amherst college, and Jensen, the young outfielder from Wichita. "They both have the makings erf stars. Groskloss Is handicapped now by a football knee that keeps get ting out of Joint, but he handles himself like a veteran. He can field and he can hit. "We have had fine report on a young Polish boy, Piet, now playing second base for Wichita. He wtU get a tryout "est spring." Ens did not have the figures at hand, but the latest averages for the Western '-'gue show Plet hitting .337, with 14 home runs to his credit, and leading the league in stolen bases with 36. The Pirates have always liked speed. Plet may fit In nicely with such hiph-gcared perforn-rs as the Wnners, Grantham and Traynor. 111 ONG-KLKYEN-BAK-fl ASCII til Saddle horses for hire.
