"THE SIGNAL TOWER" STRONG DRAMA
SOME RASH SOUL
LET OUT ROBINS
BOSTON, Sept. 2.—Just when it seemed that the Giants were gathering speed for a victorious dash down the stretch, some rash soul let loose the Robins.
The depredations of Messrs. Robinson and McKechnie in the last four days have all but erased the more or less handsome lead the Giants owned when they returned from the west last week.
The latest blow was struck yesterday when the trained forces of David Baneroft managed to get a stand-off with the champions in a double-header. While this was going on Brooklyn and Pittsburgh turned back their opponents twice.
The lead of the Giants today was one game over the Pirates. The Robins are licking their chops a scant three games to the rear of the champions.
Ten years ago the then miraculous Braves came up on even terms with the Giants for the first show, 7 & 8:45 p.m. Current News
"The Signal Tower." Universal super-Jewel, starring Virginia Vall, opens a three-day run at the United theatre tonight. It is a story that will send the spectator homeward wondering just how many families there are in this land whose story might have furnished material for this drama.
"True to nature" when applied to this drama, may be a "nature" that most persons have no real knowledge about. It is true that not all of us are railroad employees destined to carry on their duties in a lonely stretch of forest, but all know quite well the joys and tragedies that enter the homes of the average in this country.
"The Signal Tower" was directed by Clarence L. Brown and he has achieved success in two ways: One in the convincing ability of his characterizations and the other in the reality of the externals. The vital dramatic interval of the story is set in the swirling environment of a storm at night within a mighty forest. A train wreck comes to add its chaos to the tormented mind of a man who believes that by devotion to his writer misses it will take off Tex Rickey and all the crat whil until time for wants Bronx lights and he intends his work just."
Don't misuse phrases like "will take off Tex Rickey" or "until time for wants Bronx lights," but ensure they are clearly part of the narrative context.

MacDONALD SMITH DEFEATS DUNCAN
GLEN EAGLE, Scotland, Sept. 2.—MacDonald Smith, Scottish-American golf professional, today defeated George Duncan of England, 4 up and 3 to play in their 72-hole special match for a $500 purse.
Play began yesterday morning.
"TUFFY" REID HERO OF SAN QUENTIN
SAN QUENTIN, Sept. 2.—Still in the shadow of the gallows but enjoying a brief reprieve from death while the courts decide he is entitled to a new trial. "Tuffy" Reid was the hero of San Quentin today.
Striking out 12 men, Reid pitched his prison mates to a victory in Labor Day prison baseball game.
His nerve apparently unaffected by his close call from death, Reid, inning after inning, mowed down the visiting batsmen. Prison authorities refused to give out the lineup that supported Reid, but said the "whole team played good baseball."
Reid was condemned to die for the shooting of Charles Weingarten in Los Angeles during an attempted holdup.
Lawn tennis has always been popular in Argentina, but never so tough as at present.

CAVEMAN TURNED TO CHESTERFIELD
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y., Sept. 2.—Luis Angel Firpo is a changed man.
The caveman has suddenly turned Chesterfield; the Neanderthal is courting the graces.
It is too bad!
As a caveman, Luis Angel Firpo had color and personality and dynamic force. As an advertised racial throw-back to some forgotten age of primitive being, he had distinction and pomp and primitive shrewdness. But too close contact with American ways and a too easy accumulation of American dollars have spoiled him.
Personality has become temperament and dynamic force has changed to childish petulance.
There’s none of the “man of destiny waiting for fate to crown him champion” about the Argentinian today. He’s just a kid, moping in the corner, pining for the white lights and the glamor of Broadway. For a caveman and a Neanderthaller, Louis has learned his lesson very quickly, indeed.
He’s only a homesick kid, wearied of the routine of camp life, sickened with the boredom of still nights and whispering pine trees; a bit unnerved by the long hours of utter idleness that bring their nightmare of legal entanglements and Capon Chases to hover over him.
It’s too bad! But unless this writer misses his guess entirely, it will take the combined efforts of Tex Rickard, Frank Flourney and all the Firpo backers to keep the eratwhile caveman in camp until time for the Willis fight. He wants Broadway and the white lights and he has given notice that he intends to clear out and finish his work “somewhere on 42nd-st.” Just now a 24-hour truce prevails, but after that—?
Don’t misunderstand us. Luis Firpo is taking the Willis fight seriously. His star of destiny was a bit upset by that Dempsey bat-
SARGUM PROUTINGS
By Sargum Sprout
Mr. Wrigley has started his campaign to run baseball as he wishes in Los Angeles. For two years he has been trying to get Eddie Maler to join him or have Mr. Maler help maintain a great baseball plant in the city of the Angels. To keep such a plant going it would be necessary to have continuous baseball. Mr. Maler was ready to meet Wrigley on a 50-50 basis, that is, Vernon and Los Angeles teams split the income from the concessions and a percentage of the gate. Mr. Wrigley thought that he was entitled to all the concession velvet for his investment and so the two just could not agree.
Mr. Lane, who owns the Bees, was perfectly in accord with Mr. Wrigley’s proposition and attempted to purchase the Vernon Club, but he could not meet Mr. Maler’s terms. Now, Mr. Lane has made arrangements to move his team to Long Beach but he will use the Wrigley Park to stage his games. The Long Beach team will just be another Los Angeles team with Long Beach tacked on as a name.
The Tigers will play in their own park. Fourteen weeks of the season there will be two games in Los Angeles. It is doubtful if the city will support the proposition. It will make for better ball in L. A., for if one team is weak and the other strong, the weaker one is going to suffer in attendance. All three teams will have to go up and playing for the lead or lose money.
It may be the best thing that could happen to baseball in Los Angeles, but right now it is not making any better friends out of the “little three” and the “big
JOHNSTON AGAIN FAILS AT TITLE
WEST SIDE TENNIS CLUB, FOREST HILLS, N.Y., Sept. 2—Little Bill Johnston tried again this afternoon to win the national singles championship from "Big Bill" Tilden of Philadelphia, and again he failed, this time Tilden winning by scores of 6-1, 9-7, and 6-2.
It was the sixth time the rivals for America’s tennis crown had battled for topmost honors, and only in the first of these meetings has Johnston, the Californiaan, who once held full sway in the world of tennis, been successful.
This afternoon Tilden’s victory was due largely to a streak of wildness almost unprecedented in the play of the game little Californiaan, but it must be credited to the Philadelphian also that he played super.tennis. His whistling service was never at better command, as is well evidenced by the businesslike manner in which he reeled off the final game with a heavy rain cloud threatening to break up the match.
Johnston was extremely wild, particularly on balls shot directly down midcourt. The net continually was in his way, it seemed, and many a point was driven into the barrier.
On the other hand, Tilden’s accuracy in placing drives down the sidelines and into the corners, a shot which is favorite with him, was almost uncanny.

The Yanks hit their stride again at the expense of the Red Sox, trailing home in front twice by scores of 3 to 0 and 12 to 2.
The Tigers swamped the White Sox in the morning game 16 to 5 but bite too much lunch and succeeded in the next game 13 to 2.
Eight home runs were made during the festivities.

Wills and Firpo are not creating any great news stories in their training camps. Firpo is rolling about attending to roll off an accumulation of a year's fat living. Firpo is not much of a press agent and is too tight to hire one. Wills is one of the quietest pugilists in the game. He does not have anything to say. He is going about his training stunts in a businesslike way. He does not claim anything.
the season there will be two games in Los Angeles. It is doubtful if the city will support the proposition. It will make for better ball in L. A., for if one team is weak and the other strong, the weaker one is going to suffer in attendance. All three teams will have to be up and playing for the lead or lose money.
It may be the best thing that could happen to baseball in Los Angeles, but right now it is not making any better friends out of the "little three" and the "big five."
The Senators are surely fighting for the American League pennant. Old Walter Johnson let the mighty swarting Yanks down without a run in the game he pitched. Walt is having one of the best seasons of his career. If Washington wins out much credit will be due to the great pitcher as he is not only the mainstay of the pitching staff, but has been acting as instructor and coach to the young pitchers.
Of course, too much credit cannot be given Harris, the young manager, who took over a team that was not considered as a contender and shot it so full of pop that it has been the surprise of the baseball world.
Johnny Adams, the San Bernardino lad who recently won the California lightweight championship proved to the satisfaction of all that he is the best man on the count when he knocked out Johnny Tramitas of Portland at the American Legion arena at Hollywood. The two Johnnies put up the greatest fight ever staged in the southland since the days of Old Naud Junction. Adams got the northern down in the first round for the count of nine, then followed two rounds of real fighting that kept the fans standing up in a frenzy. In the latter part of the fourth Adams again connected with a knockdown, and followed up with three more which was one too many for the tough northern champ. Adams will be displayed before his Orange-co. friends at Huntington Beach next Friday night. After this fight he leaves for New York where he will be seen in four bouts at the famous Madison Square Gardens.

“Monsieur Beau”
Sport Snaps
by JACK KEENE
While the current season has been a gala one for left-handers generally in the big show, the miserable showing of Dutch Ruether, veteran southpaw with the Brooklyn Dodgers, is one of the tragedies of the year.
The hurling of Daxzy Vance and Burleigh Grimes has made the Dodgerites a pennant threatening team all season. Had Ruether stepped into the swing of things early in the season and piled up his share of victories the Brooklyn team might now be going down the home stretch at the pole, with a good chance of coping the pennant and thereby oozing the Giants out of their fourth straight flag.
Ruether has complained all season that his arm has alled him and will not yield to treatment. Uncle Bobble and the club trainers have labored diligently to bring him into winning form without results. It is to be regretted if Ruether has not done his best to get into form.

Nine lightweight of more or less promise have posed forfeits to appear in a tournament in New York Sept. 19, to decide who is the "logical opponent" to meet Benny Leonard in a match for the lightweight championship he holds.
The nine are Benny Valger, Alex Hart, Cuddy De Marco, Billy Gillmore, Johnny Mendelssohn, Jimmy Goodrich, Harry Mason, Johnny Dundee and Ray Mitchell.
The tourney as planned, is the day's best joke.
First of all Luis Vicentini, Jack Zivile and Rock Kansas are left out in the cold because they have either been licked by Leonard or whipped by other contenders. Yet Valger, a hasbeen, is in, with a chance to grab off the opportunity to meet Leonard—due principally to the lack of A1 fighters in the list.
Johnny Mendelssohn proved even a poor setup for Benny Leonard in an exhibition in Philadelphia last fall, Leonard's last fight of 1973.
Sid Barbarian, who looms as one of the cleverest young lightweights in the country, may be allowed to participate. Jack Bernstein is another man who may not break into the party. Bernstein whipped Zivic and Zivic linked Barbarian. Despite the success of Bernstein he will not have a chance to show his wares in the elimination journey unless the officials change their minds.
From another angle the tourney stacks up as a joke, affair. The contestants will have assurance in writing that will in the elimination matches will assure them a crack at Leonard in the near future. The win promoters will try to schedule them in a couple of matches against other "likely" boys before making the big bill.

DOTY BUSH BACK
Doty Bush, one of Anaheim's contributions to league baseball, is back home after a successful season. He spent the first half of the season with Bristow, Okla., acquiring a batting average well over .300. The last half was spent with Temple in the Texas Association, a very fast loop. Averages had not been compiled when he left.
Doty is trained down, has sweat off all superfluous Resh. He says the mercury often reached 110 to 114 in the daytime and "cooled off" to 103 at night.
