SOUTHPAW DUEL
RESIGNS AS GIANTS PILOT
T
(By Associated Press)
Deprived for the time being ol
anything resembling a close pennant
raee, American league partisans are
deriving most of their mid-season
excitement from the hot duel be
tween Vernon Gomez and Robert
Moses Grove for pitching honors.
The two star southpaws, backed by
clubs that provide them with plenty
of runs, are setting a pace that
promises soon to distance all rivals.
And Grove, striving to retain his lau
rels In the Junior circuit, has found
a worthy opponent In the young
man who Is pitching only his second
full year In the majors.
Defeating Cleveland yesterday,
to 7, Gomez stretched his record to
23 victories against one defeat and
cored hii ninth straight victory for
the Yankees. Grove, beating De
troit, 8 to 1. on four scattered hits,
observed his eleventh straight trl
umph and set his mark at 13 wins
and 3 losses.
The home run race between Babe
Ruth of the Yanks and Jimmy Foxx
of the A's remained at a standstill
as each belted one out of the park
Foxx hit No, 23 off Tom Bridges
of Detroit. The Babe nicked Jack
Russell for No. 31.
In the day's only other contest,
the Chicago White Sox Jumped on
Ed Durham and Wiley Moore for
five runs In the seventh Inning to
beat the forlorn Boston Red Sox,
7 to 8. Selph and Potherglll each
knocked In two runs for the winners
The entire National league pro
gram was rained out.

VSSOC1ATEO PKESS SPORTS fcOTQff
Yale'a noble gesture of athletic de
flation, leading up to a five-game
football schedule In 1033, will not
strike a responsive chord generally
among the colleges and universities
of the United States.
Even In a depression year Old Ell's
athletic- gate receipts exceeded II.-
000,000. Up at New Haven, the uni
versity's magnificent sports plant Is
mortgage free. The whole athletic
structure at Yale is on a solid foun
daatlon so that changes In policy,
designed to eliminate overemphasis,
can be made without risks.
Elsewhere no such favorable cir
cumstances exist for radical re
trenchment In profit-producing at
tractions, unless It be at Harvard or
Duke, two heavily endowed Institutions.
Most colleges, if they adopted a
five-game gridiron schedule, would
have to cancel other sports which
depend on football revenue.
Others, with field houses and big
stadiums to pay for, cannot see the
necessity or advantage of going fur
ther Into the financial hole.
The Other Side
There la considerable doubt
among experienced football men that
a shorter playing schedule means any
less tension and pressure so far as
the players are concerned; conse
quently that any benefit is Involved
for the participants.
Yale, for example, hardly would
list any "breathers" on a five-game
list. The Ells have steady rivalries
with Harvard, Princeton, Dartmouth
and Army. Presumably the remain
ing spot on the schedule would be
subject to change, to maintain occa
sional afflllatlona with schools like
Georgia, Chicago, Brown, etc.
'Speaking as an alumnus and not
In behalf of Southern California,"
remarked Howard Hardin Jones,
when advised of the new Yale five-
game plan, "X think there will be
some changes In the plan before
1933."
Rust and West
Easterners, speaking broadly on be-
,half of the cltlslnery east of the Ole
Miss, will not take kindly to the sug
gestion from Southern California that
to save Olympic expenses. In the
present emergency, the V. 8. teams
be composed mainly of far western
ers, plus a few of the top-notch east
ern performers.
Sectional pride, as well as sec
tional talent, will demand that all of
the main sectors of athletlo activity
receive an even break.
So far as the colleges are con
cerned, anyway, there is no chance
for squawks from the east, The
tesnis of the X. C. A. A. A. A. all will
be In California for their champion
ship meet, w,ilch U a semi-final
Olympic tryout.
This will take care of Yale's sen ,
satlonal pole van Iters, an ace like
George Spits of New York university,
in the high Jump; middle distance
stars like "Pen" Hullo well of Har
vard and Frank Nordell of New York
university; and leading hammer-tasters
such as McDougall of Penn and
Flnlayson of Harvard.
Among the others to cnalder are
such potential Olympic champions as ,
George Lermond, Gene Venake, Leo
Sexton and Percy Beard of the New
York A. C; Kmmett Topplno of New (
Orleans, Jack Keller of Ohio Bute.

OF GIRLS' T
WILL PLAY HERE
Southern Oregon fam will get to
watch an all-around girl athlete whose
name, to fans In the south, has been
a byword for excellence for three
years, when the 8. K. 8. L. girls' base
ball club of Wichita meet the Jack
sonville team here July 17.
Faye Langford, better known to
athletics as "Lefty" Langford, Joined
the girls' nine last year and played
on the long tour the feminine team
made through the west. Her pitch
ing against men's clubs In Dallas first
attracted the Interest of Irvln Blar-
com, girls' manager, and when he
put her on the mound for his club
he completed a lineup of feminine
stars which Is hard to beat.
"Lefty" broke Into fame with the
club when she held the fast Casper,
Texas, men'a nine to four bits and
shut them out In her first contest.
Since, she gained In popularity until
fans look forward for days to her
appearance on the mound.
"Lefty" has natural grace to excel
In any sport. Her winters are occu
pied In playing basketball- In Dallas
as a regular member of the Oolden
Cyclones, for two years national girls'
champions. Her best friend, the fa
mous Babe Dldrlckson, also Is a mem
ber of the Cyclones, but she was un
able to join the girls' baseball club
as ahe la a record holder In three
track events and must attend the
Olympics this summer.
It Is probable that "Lefty" will be
seen on the mound here, but If It Is
not her regular turn she will be In
the outfield as she Is a hard hitter
and is In the lineup every day.

A NO-TRUMP CONVENTION
By Tom O'elJ
For sltustlona where the dealer at
contract opens with a pre-emptive
bid of a suit haa come the overcall
with no trump by an opponent with
out any desire to play at no trump.
It la In Vie nature of an Informa
tory or takeout double requiring
partner to bid his best suit.
A mere double would be confus
ing to partner of the doubler. He
would rightly assume that the dou
bler desired to set the pre-emptive
bidder.
Originated by a ranking player In
a duplicate game on the spur of the
moment to fit a particular case and
rightly Interpreted by that player's
partner, the no trump overcall
has reached standardization In Its
meaning.
It takes a hand of great strength
to warrant such an overcall, a hand
that would result In the pre-emptive
bidder being set. But the play
er overcalllng foresees more polnte
In his side msklng game or slam
than In penalizing opponents. The
no trump offer Is made without a
stopper In the dealer'a suit. In fact,
If the hand of the no trump bidder
la void of the dealer's suit so much
the better. But the no trump bid
der must be prepared for any re
sponse by his partner. A hand held
by Miss Florence Fitch at the Des.
Chappelles club, New York, illus
trates the principle. The hend:

-A STATEMENT BY THE GILLETTE SAFETY RAZOR COMPANY
THE Gillette Safety Razor Company feels
called upon to make a confession and a
statement that are undoubtedly unique in the
annals of American business. It is with deep
regret and no little embarrassment that we do this
in order to tell you frankly what actually hap
pened when we introduced a new Gillette razor
and blade.
Soon after this was done, we found that, al
though the great majority was pleased, some
users complained quality was not up to standard.
We learned why. Our equipment had not been
equal to the task of producing millions of
. blades at high speed without a certain varia
tion in quality that affected a small portion
of our output As a result some blades that
left the factory were not as good as you had
a right to expect Im
mediately we directed
our principal effort to
ward the achievement of
uniformity. Everything
within our power was
done to end variation.
More than this impos
sible as it seemed of
accomplishment at the
time we set out to
develop or find a better
production process,
having as a major re
quirement the elimina
tion of varying quality.
The Gillette Blue Super-Blade
The $2 Kroman De Luxe blade has been
withdrawn from production. We offer the
Blue Super-Blade aa its successor. This sen
sational blade is far superior to the Kroman
and costs considerably less. You pay only
a few cents more than for the regular blade
and get unmatched shaving comfort Its
extraordinary shaving performance will
convince you that the Blue Blade is the
sharpest ever produced. A blue color
has been applied to the blade for easy
identification. It is contained in a blue
package. Cellophane wrapped.
We discovered and purchased for our exclusive
use and at the cost of millions of dollars
a manufacturing process that waS amazingly
superior to our own.
By this, method, modem and automatic millions
of blades can be made at top speed without
variation in quality.
We incorporated refinements of our own inven
tion and installed the new machinery, .throwing
out all of our old equipment
Now we announce today's Gillette blades, made
by the new management The usual superla
tives have no place in this sincere statement of
ours, so we will let the quality of the blades
speak for itself. The green Gillette package re
mains unchanged, but the blades are new in
every respect quality, performance, and method
of manufacture.
You can try today's
Gillette blades without
risking a cent If you
don't agree they are supe
rior, return the package
and your dealer will re
fund your money. Our
reputation depends
upon the proof of these
claims. Being absolute
ly certain of the quality
of these Gillette blades,
we do not hesitate to
make this statement
over our signature.
