Phone Main IS Senators Tied For Leadership ttv Hugh S. Fuilertoii Jr. (Associated Press Sporta Writer) " A large part of the first half of the major league baseball season has been spent In strenuous efforts on the parts of various managers to strengthen their clubs for tho latter part of the year and the success of their efforts Is quite evident in the current standings of the clubs. Washington's big deals with tho St. Louis Browns and Chicago ' White Sox turned out to be an important factor in making the American league campaign a duel botween the Sena tors and the Philadelphia Athletics. The acquisition of Heinle Manush gave them some batting punch where It was needed while Al Crowd er has turned out to be an effective pitcher hi Washington. Art Shires and Dave Harris, formerly of - Chi cago and Portland, Ore., also have helped improve the Senators' batting average. . Tiert For Leadership The result Is that the Senators and the Athletics today are tied for the league lead. It was Shires who brought about the tie, coming through .with a pinch single with tho bases full In the tenth inning to beat the New York Yankees, 3 to 3. , Washington now has won 15 out of 16 games, shoving the Yanks 514 games into third place by sweep ing the series. And by pitching all of yesterday's game Dump Hadley made it 14 out of 16 pitchers who have finished the games they started. The Athletics kept their place in the sun by winning their third close decision in a row from the Boston Red Sox, 4 to 3. George Earnshaw scored his eleventh victory of the year, gaining a, slight edge over Dan MacFaydcn. Cleveland Indians, with Clint Brown on the mound, shut out the St. Louis Browns, 7 to 0. . Waite Hoyt also pitched well and led Detroit to a 6 to 0 victory over the Chicago White Sox. ... Ike Boone Does Well The Brooklyn Robins, who chose to add strength to their team by ob taining Ike Boone from the Pacific Coast league, found good reason to be pleased with tholr new acquisition. Boone made his debut yesterday and played the principal role as the Rob ins regained first place in the Na tional' league by beating the Boston Braves, 10 toJ4. He hit a home run tind a single and made a great catch of a fly, diving into the bleachers to grab the ball. Cincinnati took both games of a double header from Chicago by scores of 5 to 4 and 8 to 7, breaking a los ing streak of five games. The third place struggle between the New York Giants and St. Louis Cardinals remained unchanged as both teams won double headers. The Giants trounced Philadelphia, 10 to 8 and 6 to 2, The Cards made It 12 victories In their last l.fl. games by winning a 2-1 decision over Pittsburgh In the first game although they made only two hits off Spencer and following it up with a 12 to 4 victory In a slugging match. Douthlt's ninth inning home run won the first game after Spenc er's wild pitch had provided the oth er Cardinal run. BOBBY JONES OVER COURSE SUNDAY IN 72 .

Bobby was not concerned with scores, however, but with a study of the courso's character and contours. The defending champion ovserved thnt.he was glad to confirm his own belief that "I am in good shape for another meet, ready to make the best defense I can." He said he was convinced . that ; the course holds plenty of tournament tribulations. Three others also had stepped out from among their fellows today by scoring par 72's Sunday during one trip over the links. .

American Tennis Stars Victorious In British Play WIMBLEDON, Eng., July 7 (P) John Van Ryn and Wllmer Allison, young American tennis stars, won the British men's doubles championship today for tho second successive year, beating their countrymen, John Doeg and George Lott, In straight sets in the final. The scores were 6-3, 6-3, 6-2. t Seventy-five hundred spectators who had come to watch the two strong American pairs fight It out in what was expected to be a grapping five set match, saw Van Ryn and Al lison, at the peak of their form, sink Lott and Doeg without a trace. Not even Doeg's famous service could keep his team in the running. Allison and Van Ryn entered to day's match as slight favorites de spite their defeat at the hands of Lott and Doeg, the United States champions, In the final of the Queens club tournament two weeks ago. But few were prepared to sco Lott and Doeg overwhelmed as they were to day. The Lott-Doeg combination which beat the French Davis cup pair of Henri Cochet and Jacques Brugnon on the way to the finals as well as tho, Australians", Harry Hopman and Jim Willard, was riddled as though by machine gun fire when' the defend ing champions opened their .hair- trigger attack from close range , GRETNA Gil KENS LOSE OUT UN I) Kit MISSISSIPPI LAW JACKSON.

Wes Farrell, the sensational Cleve land right-hander, was tho first to register his tenth pitching contest, followed by the eminent Robert Moses Grovo of the Athletics and another capable southpaw, Bill Walker of the New York Giants. Ted Lyons ot the White Sox has had to wait quite a spell for his tenth victory. Books Sel- boia or tne Braves has been up among these big winners in spUo ot being attached to a second-string outfit. Two of the twirling titans at this stage of the proceedings a year ago were Burleigh Grimes of the Pirates and George Uhlo of tho Tigers .but both have had to hustle to get as much as an even break so far this year. ...
