McGraw Expresses Faith in Giants’ Corps of Hurlers Yankees Have a Lead From Which They Hardly Can Be Rooted in Junior » League. By JOHN J. M’GRAW. Manager World’* Champion Giants. As the major league teams all have mads the half way turn and the race narrows Into ths stretch. Interest seems to be centered on the Giants and ths possibility of the Reds or the Pirates knocking us out of the lead. In the American league ths Tanks are so far out in front that their third pennant seema almost a fore gone conclusion. By winning half of their games from now they could win even If Cleveland took on an unex pected spurt and won more than two thirds of their games. That I do not eons der likely. When the Tigers and the Athletics failed to develop a punch the race waa practically over. While It may have added a few gray hairs to the pretty good-sized crop I already have, I am not nearly so much alarmed over the situation facing the New Tork ‘club aa are many of our supporters. I know that we have a fight on our handa and my players know it. Their realization of the danger, In a way. haa been a good thing. Just when the Reds threat ened closely while playing at Brook lyn the Giants tightened up and came through. They did that two year* ago and again last year. It la that spirit that gives me confidence. Pitchers Wobbly at Times. The pitching staff has been very wobbly at times, but when it came to a pinch the driving fore* of the club showed Itself even without steady, re liable pitching. If you will recall the feelings of the fans last September you will notice that exactly the same things are being said now aa waa ao freely discussed then. "The Giants can not beat the Tanka with their pitching staff,’’ nearly every expert In the country said. The only statement I had to make then was that my pitchers had man aged to deliver every time I called on them In the league race. I figured that If they would show the same spirit In the world's series that we would have a chance. It turned out that they did that very thing, and we won. My faith tn them la Just aa strong today. We have no more easy games ahead of us. We muet beat the actual contendere and that la what we ex pect to do. With Bancroft back In the lineup the Olants feel that they can do It. Hla experience and field leadership are a big asset. The fighting at Cincinnati and Pittsburgh will b* something worth seeing, but I have not loet faith In my club, not by any means. They hava a terrific batting punch, aa base Pitcher May Is Sent to Pittsburgh in Deal Which Brought Boehler Here A coord big to a telegram received early this morning from Barney Burch, owner of the Omaha rlub, Pitcher May has been sent to the Pittsburgh Nationals on opton In the deal whirl) brought Pitcher George Boehler, $30,000 hurling beauty to the Omaha rlub on the same basis. ball people know. When pushed to the wall they always have used It. A look at the schedule makes it evi dent that the contenders In the Na tional race—Pittsburgh and Cincin nati—have most of their games against the weak clubs, while most of ours are against the strong clubs. That la true. In a way. We have less than 10 games against the Braves and Phillies altogether, while the Reds and Pirates have more than twenty. I do not lay as much stress on that, situation as others do. Grant Injunction Against Betting on Columbus Track Columbus, O., July 28.—A tem porary restraining order against the Columbus Driving Park association, enjoining It from permitting betting or gambling upon the driving park grounds during the present Grand Circuit race meeting or during any race meet until the case can be heard upon Its merits, wag Issued here today by Judge Kastman of the common pleas court. .

Clem Johnson Shows Langford More Gloves in 12 Rounds Than Tar Baby’ Saw in Any of 300 Fights EL PASO, Tex., July SB—It was a wobbly, peace-rravlnr "tar baby* Sam I-angford that hobbled back to Ills corner In the Juarei bull ring last night after signaling the referee that he wonld relinquish all claims to the heavyweight boxing title of Mexico to the huge and perfectly built negro from New York City, Clem Johnson. Sam mode his defeat-denoting Jour ney to hi* corner one minute and 25 seconds after the opening of the 13th round, after every one of the dozen previous sessions had gone to the New Yorker. The “tar baby” probably saw more gloves last night than he ever say before in any of his 350-odd fights, and about nine-tenths of the gloves were tacked on Johnson's piston-like left arm, that found Langford's face and body with an unceasing patter of blows, beginning only a few sec onds after the opening round and ending only when Sam turned his back on Johnson and acknowledged defeat to the referee. Perhaps Langford was troubled by the fact that It was Friday night and the 13th round when the much taller New York negro's lefts and rights began to find Sam's aching chin and broad nose In a particularly vicious attack shortly after the open ing of the final period. Friday and the 13th coupled never brought any body any luck, Sam may have thought, but the punch-wobbled dusky warrior of the ring took no chances. Surprising every one of the huge throng which filled the big, old. h s forlc bull ring. Sam suddenly wheeled around toward his corner, presenting his broad back to his opponent, and at the same time motioning to the referee to raise Johnson's hand. Friday, the 13th round, coupled with Clem's vicious left Jab. had beaten one of pugilism's best known characters It was another case of the down fall rf pug listlc age before youth. Langford, who tells the sport* writers that he is 38 years of age. was facing a youngster of 28 years. Sarr. also Firemen Beat Soldiers.
