American League
Pitchers Turn in
Some Great Work
By Curl Lundqulst
(United Presj) Staff Correspondent)
New York, May 9 (IPi There
i was mounting evidence today that
T the American league Is stealing
some of the national's thunder as
the circuit noted lor tine pitch
ing. There has been a great deal of
excellent mound work in both
circuits this season but most of
it has been in the American. To
date there have been 25 games
In which, the pitcher -has doled
out four hits or less, 17 of which
have been in the American.
Few Hits Allowed .
There have been 46 four-hit
games, 11 in the American and
five in the national. Three of the
four three-hit Jobs, were in the
American, and one" of the two
hitters was by an American
leaguer. There have been three
one-hit games already, two in the
American and one in the national.
Nelson Potter of the Browns
was the latest to turn in a superla
tive performance, defeating the
-i Washington Senators, 7 to 1, in a
I thi-ee hitter at St. Louis last night.
After George Case got an- infield
nit in the tirst inning on which
he eventually scored, Potter held
the Senators hitless until the
ninth.
The Browns got to knuckle
bailer John Niggeling for three
runs in the second, Len Sehulte
bringing home two with a double,
the third being scored on a wild
pitch. Two doubles and an error
provided three more runs in the
third.

game, the Cleveland Indians de
feated the league leading Chicago
White Sox, 7 to 1, for the first
time this year after losing five
straight to them. Charley (Red)
Emhree, who won 9 games with
Baltimore in the international
league last season, gained his
i first major league victory after
fiwo aeieats. He held the Sox to
, seven scattered hits.
. Chicago retained its lead by 12
jjs-n-truiagc- (Julius uvcr ine iev

New York, May 9 mi Comdr.
Jack Dempsey in his blueicoast
guard uniform sat at a little
white-clothed table in the bar of
his Great Northern hotel and
said:
"This fighting in the Pacific is
so tough so rugged that it al
most knocks you out, just looking
at it, just feeling it. It's the
toughest fighting there ever .was
particularly for American boys
who are used to bearable sur
roundings;" "
Dempsey wasn't celebrating
v-t day mucn. Me naa just re
turned from a three-month trip
around the world, with most of
his time spent in the Pacific where
he saw plenty of action while
landing on an LSI boat during
the invasion of Okinawa.
The old Manassa mauler con
tinued. "If I hadn't seen the
things I saw I never would have
believed them that the Japs are
crazy fanatics who don't care
what happens to them, just so
they kill you. And that living con
ditions are generally .almost un
bearable because of the heat, in
sects, bad water and questionable
food. You can hardly sleep be
cause of flying and crawling

ruin fl
things. And If you don't get sick
you're lucky."
But what about boxing In the
Pacific, the reporters wanted to
know. ,
"Well they have some boxing
at . the, replacement centers like
Guam and Manila. Naturally, you
can't have .any boxing up at the
front, where you can't gather a
crowd for any reason where you
can hardly stick your neck up
without getting shot by snipers.
"But when the boys are sent
acK to tne replacement centers,
they crave boxing becausjjen-.
erally there's nothing else to en
tertain them. We need more good
boxers in the Pacific replacement
centers. Joe Louis and Billy Conn
should be sent over there to help
relieve the boys of boredom. Dur
ing the intervals between fight
ing life becomes very tedious
when a fellow jiever sees a girl,
can't get a drink and has no en
tertainment." . But, now. that the European
war is over, didn't Dempsey be
lieve that Louis and Conn should
be. given furloughs so that they
could fight professionally . for
themselves ' and make some
money? 1 -
"No, sir!" Dempsey declared.
"Louis and Conn and other big
time boxers are needed now
more than ever before to enter
tain the boys in the toughest part
of the war we have faced yet."
What about boxing in the Unit
ed States, now that the European
victory has been achieved?
Dempsey said every stimulant
should be given to professional
boxing in the United States for
two reasons: (1) To provide U. S.
entertainment for the boys who
return from Europe on furlough
or mustered out, and (2) to de
velop top-flight talent that can
entertain all the boys when Japan
is conquered and boxing enjoys
the biggest boom in history.
Dempsey will return to his post
as head of the physical education
department at the Manhattan
Beach. N. Y., coast guard base.
after a brief leave. Meanwhile he
is figuring out ways and means of
helping the boys in the tougn pa
cific area.
