' tmr- Raschi, Yanks' Pitching Ace, Blanks Chisox Feller Loses 3-1 Game To Boston; Braves Now Alone At National Top By JACK HAND Associated Prm Sportewritor Who's the No. 1 righthander of the American League, now that Bobby Feller has atarted to slip? Vic Raschi, strong-armed New York Yankee ace, and Virgil Trucks, Detroit speedster, look like the leading candidates. Feller Isn't finished. He showed enough last night in losing a 31 decision to Boston to prove that. But even Bobby admits he's not as good as he used to be. Raschi put In a solid claim with his three-hit shutout of the Chi cago White Sox last night, 3-0. It . was his seventh victory to one loss. Trucks survived a shaky start to subdue the Philadelphia As in 10 innings, 5-4, for his sev enth win. He has been beaten twice. The brilliant job on the White Sox was Raschi's third shutout of the season, more than any other pitcher In the league. Feller, making his first start in two weeks, gave up two runs in the second Inning on two infield bounders, a walk and an error. Each side scored once later but that was the ball game. In suf fering his fourth loss to one win, Feller allowed eight hits, walk ing four and striking out three. Red Sox Defeat Indians Despite the victory, the Red Sox remained 41 games behind the Yankees in the pennant race. Mickey Harris pitched himself In and out of trouble for his second complete game of the year. In the third and fifth, the Indians loaded the bases but both times Harris struck out Ike Boone, subbing for Lou Boudreau at shortstop. Washington handed the St. Louis Browns their seventh straight setback, 6-5, with the help of the first homers of the season by Eddie Yost and Sam Dente.

The Dodgers bowed to St. Louis while the Giants were trimming the Chicago Cubs, 11-5, on a seven-run seventh. Stan Muslal cricked two hom ers as the Cards came from be hind to top Brooklyn.
