What does i feller have to do to
get into first place in this league?
Casey Stengel of the New York
Yankees is running the hottest ball
club in the American League. Only
31V games off the pace on July 1,
the Yankees have won 17 out of 19
games since then.
And they still aren't up on top.
Last night they came within one
putout of reaching their objective.
They fought off third-place Chi
cago handily, winning 4-1. The
hues scoreboard in Yankee Stad
ium showed Boston leading Cleve
land 5-3 after eight innings.
But in the ninth at Boston Al
Smith coaxed Willard Nixon for a
contest to tie the acore. That's the
way it stayed through seven more
innings. It wound up a 5-5 tie after
15 innings with the league curfew
calling halt.
You can't start an inning after
12:50 a.m., local time, and it was
12:57 a.m. by the time the last out
was made in the 16th. It will have
to be replayed from the start
sometime later.
Tribe Margin Narrow
So, by four percentage points,
the Indians stayed in first place.
The issue may be settled tem
porarily this weekend when Cleve
land invades New York for three
games starting Friday night.
While the American League race
was tightening, the National

Stengel Ires
Ford To Win
NEW YORK UH Casev Stengel
is as crazy as a fox. . .and twice
as sly.
Talking to newspapermen before
last night's game with Chicago, the
New York Yankee manager spied
White Ford, his ace southpaw.
"You want to know who is the
best left-hander in the league?" he
asKea. "mat teller Billy pierce
with the White Sox. He's better
than my feller. Sure I picked my
teller to pucn tne Ail-Star Game.
But that was only because the
other feller had just recovered
from a sore arm. But die other
feller is better."
Ford undoubtedly heard every
word. A few moments later he
arose and began throwing warmup
pitohes. About 214 hours later, he
wanted off the tield with a neat
eight'hiUer, after pitching the Yan
kees to a 4-1 victory over Chicago
that kept the Yankees hot on the
heels of the Cleveland Indians.
Reached in the clubhouse later.
Ford declined an invitation to take
issue with Stengel but admitted
ne was determined to show his
manager that he was a nrettv rood
pitcher too.
Fourth Straight Win
The 24-year-old ex-serviceman
turned in one of his best efforts
of the year last night. He struck
out fi"e and walked only two as
he "jsiui his ninth victory against
only one loss against the White
Sox since he entered the league in
1950.
It was his fourth straight strong
performance after a poor spring.
His record, which once was 2-4. is
now 9-6.
"I was all mixed uo earlv this
year," he explained. "My control
was off. my curve ball wasn't do
ing -a thing and I seemed to be
going irom bad to worse. I finally
lost all confidence in myself and
if it wasn't for Jim Turner (Yan
kee coach) I might be sitting in the
minpen now or pitcmng for Kansas
v,ny. ne siraigwenca me out."
Ford went on to explain that
lurncr discovered he was doing
several things wrong. First, he
was overstriding. Second, he was
looking down on the eround after
each pitch, instead of keeping his
eye on the batter. Third, he wa
not following through his curve

Yank Pennant
Seen By Tigers
NEW YORK I Manager Fred
die Hutchinson of the Detroit Ti
gers and Schoolboy Rowe, his
first lieutenant, agreed today that
the New York Yankees will win
their sixth straight pennant but
they differed as to the degree.
Hutchinson 'thinks the Yankees
will win only after a hard-fought
battle with Cleveland and Rowe
believes the defending champions
will win in a breeze.
Hutchinson commented on the
Yankees' prospects yesterday aft
er the Tigers had split a double-
header with them, losing 6-0, then
winning 8-6.
"I'm not sure they have the bet
ter team, but they have 1 psycho
logical edge over Cleveland," he
said. "After all. they've been in
three straight dogfights with the
Indians and they've come out on
top every time."
Towe former Tiger Ditching
great who, returned to the club
in the capicity ot a pitching ana
first base coach this year, didn't
mince any words.
"I can't see anybody but the
Vankees. There's nobody around
that can beat em.. They're mak
ing their move now and once they
grab the lead from Cleveland, no
body is going to take it away
from thorn. Certainly not the In
dians. They'll fold like an accordi-
an. Thoy always do. "

Although Oakland couldn't dent

She vaulted onto the playing field,

Of these, the Dead Sea spreads
out over 340 miles and lies at the
bottom of the earth's deepest
break, or fault, and has a maxi
mum depth of 1,309 feet although
one end of it is quite shallow.
Each day, 6 million tons of fresh
water dump into this warm inland
sea but the rapid evaporation
keeps the level fairly constant.
(At one time, the lake was much
larger filling the entire Jord in
Valley but it has now shrunk to
aoout one-fourth of its area). Tiia

leaves an accumulating residue in
the lakes.
