Although LA Tigre and DAnnunze are still lathering teeth and soaping eardrums, over 8,000 barbs In Greater New York and Westchester are out on strike, and there are indications that the retail butchers may join their wholesale ton-sorial brothers to sympathy.

When the Master Rasor raised the barbers battle cry, Strike while tho towel is Le Tigre and DAnnunze con-tinned peacefully and serenely to clip off moles and slash double chins down to their former youthful proportions.

Never argue with tho barb when his razor is on your beak. Le. Tigre and DAnnunze have never lost an argument with a customer, possibly due to their habit of stropping their razors sin-isterly at the psychological moment. When questioned about the the barber's strike, D'Annunze refused to chirp at first, and then refused to stop, thus: "Eot's da high costa llv, Evera ting gone uppa. Straw hat, she eight dolls.

The Braves had no difficulty in swamping the slipping Giants under a I to 1 score. In a one-sided affair the Barons piled up hits in the first four innings for a nine run start. Cofflndaffer kept the Crackers hits well scattered. Scores 6f men have been in our store buying these suits and pocketing the $12.50 or $15.00 saving that these prices represent.

Rain ended tho disputed seventh. Odum Bowers White The Home of Kuppenheimer Clothes IM TOGS i FUHofILIFE Cobb and Walter Johnson. After six weeks of play both Were lagging, Cobb trying vainly to get hla hits and Johnson trying vainly to keep from getting hit. Neither one, of course. Is through.

In a week or two both may easily be swinging back into line. But It Is only natural that after 14 or IS years they should begin to find It harder each season to get. going at top speed. Cobb last season was 30 points beyond his nearest rival. It IS hardly possible that to one year he could break very far.

But the indications are already out that he will have a hard time fighting his way back to the old perch. Johnson has been hit much harder than Usual so far. He, too, will have a battle ahead to hold his place as tho most effective pitcher to the league with an earned run allotment below two to the game, in spite of several brilliant games. The Next To Go. These two stars will almost certainly be the next to slip, but not for two or three years.

A few years back four went out almost to a cluster. There were Wagner, Lajole, Mathew-son and Walsh. The first pair had lasted 20 years. When they passed the batting anJ pitching stars of the game included Cobb, Johnson and Alexander. The latter is not only younger than either Cobb or Johnson, but this season finds him at his top stride with the old side arm delivering, mowing them like a machine gun.

A bit later Alex will be waiting for some uncovered phenom to take his ace. So it goes. After A Year. Nearly a year has passed sines Dempsey crowded Willard over the rim and dropped him from sight. In all that time there hasn't been a heavyweight affair worth speaking of so far as any class goes.

But now the signs are beginning to point to another flurry. The Carpentler-Levlnsky embroilment should hoist the lid and by that time the Impending status of Jack Dempsey should be uncovered. If Carpentier trims the Battler and Dempsey is acquitted, we may have a regular championship some time this Fall. In ths meanwhile the lean, lank fall of Fred Fulton Is casting a shadow over the debate and he, too, will have to he considered shortly. And the lank one may be a tougher bird than you think he Is.

Dempsey is reported to be to fine condition, ana Carpentier will be right by the time he meets Levtosky. In this case if affairs work out of the present tangle and the champion skids out of the governments clutches there may be a carnival set for Labor Day. Concerning which the next week or so may tell a lot. The Cub claim for a pennant was largely taken as a joke early to the Spring, but Alexander and Vaughn seem to have taken it seriously.
