(By the Associated Press.)
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.
The OUnts had rallied to tie the
score at S-S In the ninth, only to
see the Cubs blast two runs across
In the tenth., but the Slants were
far from beaten. The first three men
to face Bob Smith In the last, half
of the tenth singled and Lonnle War
neke was called In to halt the stam
pede. '
He did. but not until Hughle Orltc
had driven tn the tying run with a
double on which Joe Moore, carrying
the winning run on his shoulders,
was out down at the plate by Ouy
ler's bullet-like throw. Having saved
the game, Klkl proceeded to win It
In the next Inning with a home-run
on Sam Olbson, third Giant pitcher
of the day.
Pittsburgh recovered from a brief
slump to trim the Boston Braves, 8
to 3, but failed to gain an Inch. They
stlU were 614 games behind the Oubs
today, with the schedule growing
short. They would have to win all
their remaining 11 games while the
Cubs were losing six out oj 10 to take
the pennant.
St. Louis turned up with another
brilliant pitching prospect In Ray
Starr, young righthander from Roch
ester, who held Brooklyn to two
widely spaced singles and won han
dily,' 8 to 0. The Phillies downed
Cincinnati, 7 to 4, to make a sweep
of the three-game series.
The Yankees suffered their first
defeat since clinching the American
league flag when the Chicago White
Sox beat them, 8 to 8. Lefty Gomez
was the victim, breaking a "even
game winning streak for the Oastll
llan. Walter Stewart of the St. Louis
Browns came out best In a tight
mound duel with George Earashaw
of the Athletics, 8 to 3.
Cleveland pounded two Boston
pitchers for 13 hits, Including home
runs by Kamm and Olasell, to win
their lBth fame of the year from the
Bed Sox, 7 to 3. The Detroit Tigers
nosed out Waahlngton, 8 to 7, in 10
Innings. Tommy Bridges didn't al
low the Senators a hit in the last
four frames.

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. Portland almost
save the game In the last of the
tenth by filling the bases with none
out, but the side was retired score
less by a double play and a caught
fly.

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. Burgess whitehead, Columbus
lnftelder, has an outfleldlng brother,
Lewis, with Greensboro,

BLACK SPIDER IS
GIVEN DECISION
AS SNAKE FREED
6T. CHARLES. 1U, fiwt. 18. (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."
