Up By Signs of Slump in

By KERERT W. BARKER
Associated Press Sports Writer
The flying start that has carried
the New York Yankees to three
consecutive American league pen
nants seem, to be conspicuous by its
ubsence this year.
That fact may or may not be
significant but you can't blame the
rest of the league if they should
be hoping that the world's cham
pions at last hare hit a slump that
will permit someone else to repre
sent the junior circuit la the world's
series. On the other hand, the
boys have been waiting so long for
the Yanks to crack that they may
not recognize a slump when they
see it.
it past years the Yankees have
broken their rivals' hearts by get
ting away to a fast start and piling
up such a huge lead that a lata
slump was not fatal. r.
'But this year the champions have
not started impressively at all. Two
weeks of campaigning finds them
la third place with five wins and
four defeats. They did not surfer
their rourth reverse last season
until May 2 when they had won 11
games.
And the Philadelphia Athletics,
chief sufferers from the Yankee
scourge last season, are gaining
some adequate revenge. Yesterdav
they fell on Henry Johnson and
Gordon Rhodes for eight big hits,
to down the champions, 10 to 1.'
MMle Haas and Al Simmons each
hit for the circuit with one on in
the fourth and Mickey Cochrane.
after clearing the bases with a
triple in the eighth, added insult
to Injury, by stealing home while
Rhodes was winding up. Max
Bishop got five straight bases on
balls and scored three times. Kube
Walberg held the Yanks to six hits
and fanned seven men.
Browns Beat Tigers
Behind good pitching by Sam
Gray, the St. Louis Browns clung
on, close behind the Athletics, by
defeating the Detroit Tigers, 3 to 2.

Ted Lyons was hit freely but the
Indians wasted most of the 13 hits
they made off him.

ers. , f r .
The Pittsburgh Pirates lost more
than a ball game at St. Louis,
where the Cardinals eked out a
7-to3 victory with the old of con-'
siderable generosity on the part of
Pirate pitchers. The defeat didn't
Hurt Donie Bush half so much as
did an injury to Burleigh Grimes,
his star right bander. Grimes was
hit by a baited ball in the third
Inning and had to retire. The Car
dinals hopped on Lee Meadows for
the tyeing run in the fourth inning
and then scored four runs in the
eighth with the aid of five passes
and a wild pitch. After a., bad in
nings when the Corsairs scored
three runs, the veteran spitballer,
Clarence Mitchell, was extremely
effectlve. .

NEW YORK, April 30. (vP)
Every time - Miller HugKlnH is
tempted to grow discouraged with
his pitching: staff he thinkH about
Watte Hoyt. In all the array of
Yankee pitchers, Hoyt is the only
one who has pone the route. And
what is more, Hoyt has turned that
particular trick three times al
ready and won every ftart.
Ttoforo q record-broaklnR crowd
at tho' Armory last nlffht, Gene
O'Grady of Ashland and Nails Gor
man of Hood River fought 10'
rounds to a draw. O'Grady appear
ed to be the master of the situa
tion, but was unable to inflict de
cisive punishment on his opponent,
who suffered a badly battered eye
and once or twice seemed to bo a
blt groKfiy.
O'Grady mixed gloves bettor than
in previous appearances and fought
several fast founds, but slowed
down considerably in others. Ho
was In perfect condition and was
able to reach homo with more
blows than Gorman, although the
latter went into the fight with a
determination to win, backed up by
a Jong- series of workouts he had
gone through in Medford.
In the third round, O'Grady cut
his opponent's face and blood
streamed from the cut. Gorman
speeded up and gloves flew thick
and fast for a time. At the end j
of the seventh round, the crowd
was dissatlKfted with the slowness
of the fight and booed the fighters
long and loudly. However, the
eighth round was torrid, with
O'Grady taking the first half and
Gorman the second. In the ninth
and tenth, tho fighters slowed down
again to a listless pare.
... The two men had fought last in
Chiloquin, and according to a num
ber of Chiloquin fans present last
night, their Medford fight was
much better.
For action, tho seml-windnp be
tween Austin Rosnndor of Ashland
and Jackie McCoy of Seattle was
the prize winner of tho evening.
Thoy fought a draw, -with plenty of
blows in every round. Rosandor
displayed speed and science, which
he used to advantage in mixing
gloves - with his larger opponent.
Rosander la a former Portland
fighter, land only a short time ago
took-tip his residence at Ashland.
He weighed in at 143 pounds and
McCoy, at 144.
Indian Corbett of Roseburg, 158
pounds, found little trouble in win
ning a decision from Spike Gor
man of Hood River in a four-round
event. Gorman was outclassed and
did not appear to have a punch
north writing home about. Gor
man has fought 10 or 11 fights,
but has won only a small propor
tion. Living up to advance no ties. Red
Sornson, 146 pounds, of Central
1'olnt. ex-army fighter, knocked
out Eddie Welch of this city In the
second round. The two men mixed
on nearly even terms in the first
round, but Welch did not fight
long in the second, being knocked
to tho floor twice before ho took
the count of ten. On the first
time down ho took the rount of
nine, and arose only to fall again
a little later.
Sorensen appears to have a
punch and possibly would bo a
good match for Rosander, accord
ing to sentiment heard expressed
lust night. -
There were no judges, and the
decisions were left In the hands of
the referee, Kred Erlekson, who of
ficiated in all four bouts. .
SONNENBERG FAILURE

CHICAGO, April 30. Gus

But after being spilled five times
by head locks, he downed Malce
wicz for the first fall with his fa
vorite hold In 52 minutes nnd38
seconds.

nenherg again reverted to straight
wrestling, winning the second fall
