Chlmium (Associated Press Sports Writer) The twin dusH of the Pirates anil the Athletics continued yes terday to the accompaniment ot increasing consternation on the part- of contenders,, real and sus pected. The Buccaneers turned hack the Giants, 11 to 7, for the socond successive afternoon, gain ing over every first division rival, but ' the Mucks had to content themselves with holding fast to their eight-game lead. The A'a trimmed the Indians by 10 to 3, him the Yankees kept puqe by downing Detroit, 8 to 3. . Tho Pittsburgh game saw the parly demise of both Jess Petty iind Bill Walker, who crumpled in succession In the second, when each side scored five times. Mel vln Ott's thirteenth home run with two on ba.se settled Petty's case in the Giant hall', and McGraw removed Walker on suspicion in the home section with one run in and the bases filled. Hemsley erected Carl Mays with u triple and the Pirates were back in the game after having spotted the Giants a margin of six runs. The Cubs were unable to reach ii. decision In their five-Inning game against the Phillies. The score was 0 to 0 when rain fell. The Cardinal-lira ve game at St. L.ouis was postponed altogether because of rain. The old dazzler, Arthur C. Vance, made his first start since May 16, and the Heds would have been just as well pleased if he had postponed it a few more days.

"From Los Angeles," come from V truck driver er, pardon eress. "And vim can drive truck?" "Yes, why not ?" "You must bo worn completely out!" "That Is not the penalty of truck driving any mure," explained Miss Markin. "My piloting this truck may lie referred to as a 'stunt,' yes, but the Murelund Motor Truck company looks upon It as a prac tical demonstration of easy han dling. "Truck driving has always been one but he gave Cincinnati just five hits and the Itnluns won by 2 to 1. The one run off Vance was unearned. The Athletics carried their win ning streak over into the Cleve land series with the greatest ease, extending the spurt to four games. Kddle Wells, the southpaw from Tiormio, opened the Detroit series for the Yanks by Issuing five passes, but at the s;iine time lim ited the slugging Bengals to seven hits. Milton Gaston added to tbe woes of the Browns by turning them back at Boston in a game which saw each side get seven hits. Gas ton was steadier than Rip Collins and his successor, Kimsey.
