A group of young men who scarcely were known In the beat olrclea a year ago have made President Heydler'a Follies what they are today and pres pacta are they will divide moat of the honora when It a all over. The Pltteburgh Pirates, leading the field, by three and a half games to day, could trace their auccesa direct ly to the pitching of Steve Swetonlc ; and Bill Swift, who between them had won IS games, and to the fine play of Tony Plet and Floyd Vaughn. Cults Also Going Well. The aecond place Chicago Cuba probably would be aeveral notchea further down but for the aensatlonal . hurling of Lonnle Warneke and the play of Bill Herman at aecond base. Huck ' Betta and . Bobby Brown have by their consistently great pitching kept the' Boston Bravea at or close to the top ever since the race began. 'Swetonlc, who sharea with Betta of the Bravea the distinction of leading the National league's pltchera, ecor eft hla ninth victory yeaterday by -beating the Giant In the first half of a doubleheader, 4 to 2, on alx hlta.

Chick Hafey, who has been out of the Cincinnati line, up with Illness for many weeks, ap peered aa a plnch-hltter Is the last Inning of the nightcap, but failed to connect safely. Only one game survived an epl demlo of rain In the American lea gue. In that .the Boston Red Sox came from behind a 4-0 disadvantage at the end of. the fourth to beat out St. Louis, 8 to 4.

NEW YORK, July T. W) The American Olymplo committee which despaired of raising enough money to send a full representation to the games at Loa Angeles, haa announced la la now only 148.000 from Its goal.

(AP) There may never be another coaat-to-coast broadcaat of a championship fight here If the state athletic commission enforces it edict barring profes sional announcera from the micro phone. Rather than submit to the com mission's ruling that none but 'box ing experts" ahall be privileged to broadcast future bouts, both the Na tional Broadcaatlng company and Columbia Broadcaatlng company have threatened to take the ring bat tles off the air. The commission, fts a result of the flare-up following the description of the Sharkey-Schmellng bout by Oraham McNamee and Charlea Fran cis Coe announced that In future, the mlkea must be manned by none but "boxing sports writers, Judges or referees." The answer of John F. Royal, vlcepresldent In charge of programs for NBC, was straight from the shoulder: "The National Broadcasting com pany alwaya haa and alwaya will continue to select Its own announcera for fight broadcaate." There probably will be a show down the next time a championship la settled hereabouts. HOW THEY STAND. (By the Associated Press.) Coast, Portland ..... Hollywood San Francisco ., Loa Angelea ........

I have warned you before that If there were any more unwarranted remarka from you, I would have to caution you before the jury. The next time 1 shall take the chance of a reversible error to caution you before the Jury." . . The young woman's face turned pale for the moment, clouded and she broke Into tears. Turning to the Judge, she cried out: 7 Character Ruined. "Your honor, my character has been ruined in this courtroom. X am the only one who can defend myself. Please give me the right to do so. These vicious people have lied about me ao terribly and I can't explain or say anything." "You have had .11 the opportu nity the law allows you," the court aald. "You keep quiet unless you're sddreased. I'm tired of having you chime In all the time with side re marka and atatements."

Later Hutton, husband of the evangelist, Almee Mcpherson Hutton, found himself the center of a stage of gaping mouths a a woman ap proached and commanded him: "Let me see vour hands." The choir singer protested but finally gave way to ner insistence. Glancing at the plump palma, she told him: "You are going to lose your pres ent wife and marry again during thl life. You are ruled by your heart rather than by your head."
