The club snapped out of it and won 26 of its last 37. games, and the enlightening part of that pros perity spree is the fact that Mc Cormick batted .321 for the win ning games, and only .239 for the 11 losing games. In other words, when he was hitting the club won, and vice versa. -. lie's a raw - boned, angular sort of fellow whose general ap pearance on the field, and' par ticularly at the plate, remark ably resembles that of the late Lou - Gehrig, , although Gehrig batted lef thaiided and McCor mick swipes at them from the starboard side.

DETROIT, June 12,-i-Connie Mack played a hunch Thursday that rewarded him with a 5 to 3 victory over the Detroit Tigers, the first for the Philadelphia Ath letics in eight starts with the American league champions this season. With two out in ?the ninth and big Al Benton coming to the re lief of Johnny Gorsica, wise old Connie decided to- string along with Al Brancato, relatively light hitting shortstop, instead of call ing a power hitter from the bench. 4 Rain was pelting the players when Brancato belted a three run homer, his second of the year to break up the game and end a six-tame J Philadelphia losing streak. What chances the Tigers had in their half of the ninth to get back into the game were liquidated with Benny McCoy's great stop of Pinchhitter Rip Radcliffe's grounder with one on base.

The faculty men talked their way through morning and after noon meetings without reaching a vote on what Conference , Com missioner Edwin Atherton de scribed as "widespread ramifi cations of the recruiting problem. Atherton said he believed matters might reach a vote by the end ef tonight's tneetinr, sometime around midnight. It was understood the faculty was considering the many recom mendations submitted by the graduate managers and athletic directors before they ended their spring deliberations. Work on recodification of con ference rules was completed ex cept for the recruiting phase. Whatever is decided . will be, in corporation into the conference's handbook. 7; Most of the managers and ath letic directors left for home to day, giving up the ghost after first staying around to see what dis position was made of their recom mendations.
