Piercv and Severeid NEW YORK, Aug. 21 The Cleveland world's" champions and their New York Yankee rivals are stumbling along in their efforts to cut distance each other in the American league pennant race, while Pittsburgh now has little to fear from tlie New York Giants in- the Na tional league chase. The Indians play host to the Yankees this week, and the Pirates visit New York. The American league honors should go to the club whose pitching staff steadies for the final spurt next month. New York is outbatting Cleveland at present, but there is little to choose between the pitching strength of the two teams. Washington "is tightening its grip on third place by good twirl ing. Johnson displayed old-time form last week, Erickson shut out Chicago with three hits in 12 innings Saturday, and Mogridge whitewashed the White Sox today. Boston continued Its good play of the previous two weeks and advanced to fifth place, close behind St. Louis.' The pitchers of the other second - division- teams, on the whole, are being hit hard. The Pittsburgh Nationals have a firm grasp on tie pennant. If the Pirates win 20 of their remaining 39 games, New. York could go Into first place only by winning 26 out of 36. Pittsburgh has a marked edge on its rival in both pitching and batting. Since July 30. when the two rivals were tied for first place, the Pirates have won 15 games and lost fife; while New York won 10 and lost 13. With the Giants faltering, Boston sees home of capturing second placs. Tfie Braves' moundsmen. are not per forming in the manner that carried the team along in mid-July, but the team batting partly is offsetting this weakness. Brooklyn braced when St. Louis threatened its fourth place position. Although the Superba pitchers are do ing well, it is too late for the team to advance. Cincinnati is -doing the best of the second division teams. St. Louis and Philadelphia are hitting well, while Chicago is playing an in and' out game. The Quakers fought hard before losing three out of five, to Pittsburgh last week. GIANTS BREAK EVEN IN SERIES WITH ST.

Hallsboro romped on a combination of Wilming ton City and W. W. league players to the tune of 11 to 4 here Saturday. Thompson, the local hurler, held his opponents at his mercy, and the Wil mington club would not have scored had his team mates played errorless ball. Gieschen was relieved, of mound duty in the fourth and "Mountain Daw" came to his rescue with his sparkling curves, only to be hit to all corners of the field. Williams featured with the stick for the locals, getting two three baggers and a single out of four times up, while Litgen played the best all round -game for the visiting team. The game was called at the end of the seventh inning on account of dark ness. Batteries for Wilmington, Gies chen, Dew1 and Dobson, Casteen; Halls boro, Thompson and Sharpe.

With five weeks of play remaining in the South Atlantic association, Columbia has a lead of five and one-half games over Charleston in second place. The cham pions gained one-half of one game on the runner up during the week al though both 'the leading clubs suffered reverses. Columbia won two games and lost four while Charleston won twe and lost five. Augusta made the bsst record of the week and by winning cix and losing but one game advanced 1o within one game of Greenville in third place, Greenville winning four games and losing three. Charlotte secured an even break for the week with four victories and the same number of de feats while Spartanburg won three games' and lost four. The Question of the divided season which created a sensation in the cir cuit and resulted in action by the Charleston club supported by Colum bia, in the courts, seems to have beon definitely dropped following Julge Memminger's order Friday, continuing the Injunction by Associate Justice Watts of the South Carolina supreme court against Walsh, putting the so called "split season" into effect. URBAN CHILDREN HAVE ADVANTAGE OF RURALS Comparison by Columbia Pro f essor of Country and City School Facilities NEW YORK. Aug. 20. Disadvan tages of the country school child in comparison with the city trained child are pointed out by Professor Mabel Carney of Columbia university, 'fol lowing a series of conferences with country school superintendents from all over the nation. "Almost half the school children of the United States, that is 8,000,000, at-, tend one, and two teacher rural schools in buldings of the box-car type," Pro fessor Carney said. "Many of these buildings are neglected beyond . de scription. "Their school term averages 137 days a year as against 187 days a year for city children. The average daily attendance for city school children is 80 per cent, while for country chil dren it is 65 per cent. "All this is greatly complicated by the question of child labor on the farm. It is estimated that one million and a half of country children are engaged At ap early date Secretary, Louis T. Moore and other chamber of commerce officials will begin to arrange plans for the entertainment of delegates to the fourteenth' annual convention of the Atlantic Deeper Waterways associ ation who will pass through the city November: 14 en route to the conven tion city, Savannah, Ga. The delegates, traveling in a special train, will arrive in WilmingtQn early in the morning and will spend an entixe day in tne city and New Hanover county and the chamber of commerce will arrange an , attractive program ,fpr their entertain-j ment. ' I The- convention dates are November 15, 16, 17 and 18 and men interested in deeper waterways along the Atlan tic : .Coast will be present for the ses sions. Wilmington will be represented at the convention, but the delegates have not yet been designated, this be ing something else to be handled by the chamber" of commerce in advance of the date of the meeting . -i J. Hampton Moore, - of Philadelphia, is president of the- association, while the vice-presidents at large are John JH. Small,- North Carolina; John N. Cole, Massachusetts; Murray Hulbert, New York; Frederick W. Donnelly, New Jer sey; and William F; Broening, Mary land. George T. Leach is the North Carolina vice-president, and C. E. Foy the North Carolina director. Upwards of 200 delegates are ex pected to attend the convention from states located on the Atlantic coast to the north of Wilmington, and they will, of course, be among those spending he day in the'eity. They will be taken over New Hanover county's good roads, shown Wrightsville and other beaches, and will be made acquainted with the river front. It is likely, too, that some eore of a dinner or luncheon will be given for theyisitors during their one day tarry in Wilmington. TlheSk Pilot Will Visit Wilmington This Week WATCH FOR HIM! AUSTRIAN S DISCUSS CLOTHING VIENNA, Aug. 0. The offer of a British concern to sell in Vienna 400, 000 ready-made suits of men's clothes at 1 and 10 shillings each, has been occupying more space in the newspa pers than the disturbed political sit uation. Master tailors and ready made cloth-, ing merchants are fighting it and thus far successfully as the ministry of trade has refused the import license. The entire Vienna press, backed by the countless civil servants and work ihen's co-operative societies, is de manding the deal be permitted, point ing out that native tailors charge at in farm labor to their detriment and I least 10,000 crowns for a suit of equal kept out of schools. For this reason quali quality, while the British offer equals ACME DEFEATS LELAND AND BELLWILL IN DOUBLE BILL ACME. Aug. 21. Acme won two games on the Leland diamond Satur day, one being 9 to 0 against Leland, and the other 6 to 0 against Bellwi:! of Wilmington. Leland used three pitchers to check the batting rally of the Acme boys in the fourth and fifth frames, without avail. The same was called at the end of the fifth to allow the winner to play Bellwill. First game: R. H. E. Leland 000 00 0 6 6 Acme- ... .' 000 36 9 14 5 Hines, Gainey, Skipper and Elorp.; Blizzard and Williams. In the second game against Bellwill, called at the end of the fifth on ac count of darkness. Blizzard, ifter be ing batted out by Hallsboro Friday, came back strong, fanning 12 men avd allowing five hits. Marks making a catch In center field, featured, robbing Ham of Bellwill of a home run.

"The country boy or -girl, is getting only about one-half the teaching abil ity, less than half the supervision and not quite half the efficient administra tion of school affairs that is every where accorded the more fortunate city child. "That country children prosper as well as they do is due more largely to the wholesome influence of the average country home than to any advantage gained in the one-teacher school. The one-teacher school is an archaic insti tution and should be abandoned and replaced by consolidation as quickly as possible. "The wisest and most direct solution of our national c6injtty life problem Is to be attained through "proper atten tion to the rural schools of the country." GREEKS MUST GO, SAYS TURK NATIONAL CHIEF Mustapha Kemal Determined to Drive Them Out "If It . Takes Years" ANGORA, Aug. 2 . A reiterated de termination to drive out the Greeks "if it takes year" is the keynote of conversations which a correspondent of the Associated Press has just had with the nationalist leader, Mustapha Ke mal, at the latter's villa in the nearby village of Chankai which dominates the Angora plains ".Turkey for the Turks" is the nationalist slogan. "Although the allies appear to be un able to believe it, we will not bargain nor accept half measures," Kemal said. "We are prepared to g"o on fighting for what we deem our rights. It Is not the first time in history that a war has lasted a century," Kemal said to the correspondent. . ' "It is just that the vanquished party shall pay for a lost war," he went on. "but it is not Just to kill a nation. It is unjust to attempt to divide up Turk ish soil, giving part to the Greek and spheres of influence to the French, the Italians and the British. This is a form of political slavery. . "Qtir conception of peace for the mainland has often been stated," Kemal . continued. "As for Thrace, eastern Thrace is an inseparable . part of our homeland, because of the Turk ish majority there. For the rest of Thrace, we are , willins to agree to a plebiscite. Constantinople, too, is ours, but for the straits and the sea' of Marmora we are willing to accept any solution by which the safety of Con ttantinople can be protected. My hon est opinion is that the old arrangement by which the Turks, armed, guaran teed the neutrality of the straits, is the only working solution. It is patent j that an international commission will result in' quarrels. "If the allies desire peace, and sin cerely wish to make us pay for th war," Kemal concluded, "let them cease tryingto divide us, for division means political injustice as well as commer cial folly. I realize war is a costly affair, and feel Its atrocities deeply, but it would be a greater and lasting ruin if we permitted the cutting up of the country into zones of influence, without fighting. ' "If we are given a chance, we will, by our nationalist movement, regener ate Turkey. We already observe pro hibition strictly, and have also sun- j'pressed gambling and card playing. "We look to the United States to continue its friendship andjcommerce with us. We believe we are as demo cratic as the United States, but have no intention to .institute a republican government which we do not need. I personally have no ambition to become president. "We shall keep to our caliphate in Constantinople because the country needs that from a religious standpoint. It is a matter of detail who is made sultan, as he has no political reepon-" sibilities. The nation's power lies in the national assembly which is both legislative and executive. We are united; It- is not true that there is an enverist party trying to overthrow me. As for bolshevism, we have a reaty of friendship with them, containing a clause which provides that no propa ganda must be undertaken here, be cause the soviet organization differs from ours - fundamentally on account of our religion NO DOUBT L.
