1 1 New York, July 7 UV-The pos
bible pitfalls ol a day coach jour
tiey between Washington and
i Boston were at least one of the
& reasons today why the Philadel
. phla Athletics were only 10 per
1 centage points out of first place
- In Ihe American league race. .
i a There were other reasons, too,
' - iuch as the fact that the Athletics
- have been the most consistent
Seam in the race since the very
' Start of the season. But since no-
j body figured on the A's being up
4 fhere at this stage of the game,
1 Ihe experts were looking for an
? fcasy way out. And that train trip
' from Washington to Boston is as
a good a way as any.
4 Senators Defeated
' In a game they probably would
ii have won anyway, the Athletics
f lopped the Senators, 5 to 3, at
Washington last night, called aft-
Jr eight innings to permit Wash
lgton to catch a train for a game
' In Washington -tonight a jump
' the players could have made in
time by day coach, prairie schoon
: a)r or pogo stick.
Rookie Lou Brissie won his
ighth victory, striking out nine,
though he yielded 11 hits!
' The Tigers cut Cleveland's
first place lead to less than half
game by winning a 9 to 0 deci
sion at Cleveland as Dizzy Trout
pitched six-hit ball for his eighth
triumph and contributed a homer.
Sox Win Again
J"5 The on-coming Red Sox won
r? their third straight one-run deci
lion from the Yankees, 2 to 1, as
J Joe Dobson outpitched Frank Hit
)er in a duel at Boston.
. The Browns withstood the chal
lenge of the eight place White
Sox, at least temporarily, by top
ping them 7 to 6 as Pat Seerey
dropped a fly ball to let in the
tying run and a walk and singles
by Al Zarilla and Whitey Piatt
.. provided the winning tally.
Four-hit pitching by Rookie
Vernon Blckford, in which he
made only one mistake, serving
;.p a three-run homer to Johnny
n'Mize In the -third, ' enabled the
Braves to top the Giants, 4 to 3,
t and Increase their National
. .. league lead to three games.
Cubs Win Contest
: a The Cubs won a horrendous 12
n to 10 decision from the Cardinals
At St. Louis In a game called after
.fight innings by agreement.
The Reds put over three runs
In the ninth inning on the Pirates
for the second straight time to
win a 6 to 4 decision at Pitts
burgh, doubles by Bobby Adams
fcnd Red Kluszewskl being the
: . key blows.
The Dodgers won their fifth
straight game, 5 to '0, from the
Phils at Philadelphia as Pitcher
Hank Behrman, recalled reluct
antly from the Montreal farm
club, pitched an eight-hitter. .

Holdup Is Staged
As Race Starts
Chicago, July 7 (IPi The loud
speaker was blaring out the post
positions for the fifth race at Ar
lington park, and nobody noticed
the stranger who walked quietly
into the gambling joint.
"They're off," -shouted'the an
nouncer. "It's a stickup," said the strang
er. He pulled a .32 caliber pistol
from his pocket, ripped out the
telephone wires and lined the 19
eager bettors in the place against
the wall.
Forcing the proprietor from his
cage, the bandit reached into the
man's pocket and pulled out a
handful of $5 and $10 bills.
"Chicken feed," said the bandit.
"Where's the real money?"
"That's all there is," said the
nervous proprietor.
Disgustedly, the bandit passed
the money out to the patrons and
left.
Chortling, the bettors stuffed
the money into their pockets and
walked out, the proprietor right
behind them pleading for his
money back.
Independent League Leaders
Get Scare in 7 to 5 Contest
The Palace Billiards continued
to a be a threat to the Industrial
league leaders, the strong Jaycee
club, by dumping fourth place
Medo-Utnd creamery. 11-3. and
combing two Medo-Land pitchers
ror ten hits In last night's only
league contest.
The first softball game last
night was a scare for the Inde
pendent league leaders, Cash
man's, as they barely scraped by
the Javcees in an exhibition con
test, 8-7.
The Palace, collectively the
speediest team In either league,
made all the runs they needed In
the first two frames, scoring four
times on five hits. In the first
frame, first baseman Voos singled
to drive in one run, then left
fielder MacCauloy doubled to
drive in two more. In the next
stanza, Vernle Wallan; speedy lit
tle outfielder, took three bases on
an error, then scored on an infield
hit by shortstop Maudlin.
The Palace scored in every
frame but the sixth, and had a
big four-run inning in the last of
the fifth.
Mcdo-Land, rated an underdog
on the basis of the two teams' last
meeting., looked like they might
be tough in the first frame, get
ting two of the nine hits they got
for the evening and converting
them inlo one run.
It was but a momentary
splurge, however, for the Palace,
behind the fine pitching of Bill
Halverson, shut them out for five
straight frames. In the seventh,
Medo-Land got three hits to score
two runs, making the final total
11-3. and sending the Palace back
into a second place tie with All
State Realty.
Voos was the game's top hitter,
getting three hits in three offi
cial trips to the plate. Voos is now
batting .500, with 12 hits in 24 up,
which is one of the best averages
in the Industrial league.
The Jaycees, coming up from
the "B" league for a game with
the "A" league leaders, had a lead
in the game just once, but Cash
man's never let them keep it.
With the Jaycees leading 4-3, the
victors tallied five times in the
bottom of the third to score the
winning runs.
Cashman's only scored In two
innings, the first when they scor
ed three runs and the big third
stanza, but it was enough to top
the best efforts of the Jaycees.
The losers tallied two in the
second, two In the third, two in
the sixth and when they needed
two more just one In the
seventh. Lewis McCarthy hit a
two-run homer for the losers In
the sixth Inning.
The Jaycees will be out again
tonight, having a game scheduled
with an improving team, Jess's
Pastime, of Sisters. The Sisters
club is anchored In fifth place In
the Industrial league.
In the evening's second game,
Superior cafe will attempt to get
back on the victory path, that
team being scheduled to meet the
tough Childs' Hardware club.
Both teams will be out to use the
other as a stepping stone to get at I Davles (6) and Jensen.
the Independent league pennant.
