Hasen (Klkl) Cuyler eat on the touch while tha PltUburgh Pirates absorbed four successive beating from tha New Torn Tankeea in 1937, but It' a safe bet the fleet out fielder will aee plenty of aervlce In the world'a aerlea this year, assum ing the Chicago Cubs win the Na tional league pennant. As the Cuba drive toward the flag, Cuyler'a sensational fielding and timely hitting hsTe been the deter mining factor In many a game. Particularly has he been "poison ous" to the New York Olanta. Almost single-handed he beat them In two games of a reoent aeries at Chicago, and yesterday he was the hero of the Cubs' thrilling. Jl-lnnlng, 8 to 7 victory over the same club at the 1 Polo grounds.

Portland's Ducks, 'who have been swimming serenly toward tha Coast league pennant for many weeks, are In rough seas now. Two games be hind are the Hollywood Stars, and coming fast. The Sesls, by taking three straight games of the present series from Portland, have been the reason tor the faltering of the lead ers. San Francisco won Thursday's game, 1 to 0, In the tenth Inning. A combination of Beaver errors brought about the Seala' winning tally. Julian Wera, San Francisco third baseman, got on base on the first boot, and advanced to third on another, scoring wben Curt Davis -it a long outfield fly.

(Associated Press FISTIC COMEBACK CRAZE SPURRED BY HARD TIMES By ALAN OOULD t The craze for staging comeback campaigns, started by Jack Dempsey and invigorated by Benny Leonard, has overwhelmed a surprisingly large number of veterans In other divisions with the usual results. Dempsey, still comparatively young when he came out of retirement to beat Jack Sharkey a few yeara ago and stage the "long count" demon stration with Gene Tunney In Chl oago, was not so young when he start ed his . four round exhibitions last aprlng. Still In comparison with the ancient greats such as Jim Corbett and Bob Fltzslmmons, who shaded 40 and atlll could fight champions, Dempsey was a callow youth at 30. Leonard, at 88, Is staging the most surprising of all comeback campaigns. The old master of the lightweights, linked with Joe Gans among the 135 pound Immortals, really seems to have captured the youth that once lost, usually Is lost forever tn the ring. Two Squelched Fast The latest recruits are Johnny Dun dee, who fought Leonard a dozen times and always got a shade the worst of It, and old Harry Wills, once the Black Menace of the heavy weights. Dundee Is older than Leonard. Twice previously he tried to come back. And twice, the last time after Tony Canzonerl hacked and tore at him for ten rounds, the venerable Scotch Wop listened to the advice of friends and withdrew again to the sidelines. ' But he couldnt stay there. He came out again a few weeks ago at a small club and then was a rough, unknown youngster watting him. Johnny did the beat he could, But he took a licking, and another come back died. Wills, well over 40 and a woeful figure, enlisted In the National Guard so as to be able to box In the armor lea' In New York. He was hammered around In hie first effort. He won't be back. Even Tendler Tries Spurred on by Leonard's game ef fort, Lew Tendler, another old rival, thought he'd like to try again, hut got no farther than the thought. Jimmy Slattery, still young, but rob bed of all his old time sklU as a lightweight by Injudicious living, climbed through the ropes once more In Buffalo and was knocked out. But two of the warriors of the era when Leonard. Dundee, Tendler, Wills. Slattery and Dempsey knew their greatest fame still carry on In tri umph. Old Dave Shade, the bounding one, took over an ambitious youngster up In New England a few nights ago. Mickey Walker Is the second of the ancients to carry on In grand fashion. Mickey fights Max Schmellng the middle of September. They can't seem to keep him down. In back of at least two comebacks, those of Leonard and Dundee, a con tributor to Dempsey'e enforced re turn, and for a ttme a possible rea son for Gene Tunney staging snother offensive, stands the specter of Wall Street. All lost heavily In the crash of the markets and prosperity. Leonard's fortune, estimated at 500,000, was wiped out. So there are no illusions In Benny's mind. He's fighting now to eat. So far he. has accumulated an other 865,000, reward of a torturous training campalagn, and 31 fights with youngsters who ten years ago couldn't have carried his water buck et. ST. LOUIS. Sept. 15. (AP) The St. Louts Cardinals may put on some "brother acts" to rival Pittsburgh's Waners one of these days. Dizzy Dean's younger brother, Paul, Is a pitcher for Columbus, a Cardinal farm.

(AP) The little black aplder that strug gled for 25 day. with a 10 -Inch gar ter snake today was declared the win ner of the contest, but Its prey was gone liberated by Mayor I. O. Lan- gum. With a pair of scissors the mayor last night severed the strands of the spider's web while some two hun dred spectators watched the furious drama of nature come to a close. It was a lucky thing for the snake, which was weak from loss of food, for milk was provided by the city's chief executive before the reptile was allowed to wriggle 1U way to freedom. There were cries of foul" on the part of partisans of the spider, and the mayor admitted his action was unfair to the snake's opponent, but added he did not wish St. Charles to become Involved In a legal contro versy as a result of the fight. Previously he had been warned by W. M. Stone of the Chicago humane education society that permitting con tlnuatlon of the struggle was in vio lation of the law which prohibits "keeping a creature in a cruel man ner.' The mayor said he dldnt know whether the law was being violated or not, but that he preferred to save argument by ending the contest. PITTSBURGH. Sept. 16 (AP) A two-day battle between a spider, of the ordinary household variety and six-Inch garter snake, held fast in a web spun by the spider, ended today In death for th. reptile. The life and death struggle occur red In the basement of the home of W. F. Miller at Monrovllle. A single silken rope enmeshed the snake when It arrived In the cellar. As the snake attempted to gain free dom, the spider spun a dozen other fibers- around the snake until It dangled helplessly In a net. The duel began when the spider completed the trap. After two days of frantic maneuvering, the snake, exhausted, ceased to struggle. BURLINQAME. Cal Sept. 10 (AP) Not all snakes and spiders get along as badly as the St. Charlea, 111., pair. Burltngame police pointed to a black spider and a grass snake In a bottle on a desk at headquarters. They have lived together for three days and still "no contest."
