Increase Margin. lly Ih'rtKMU Itnrker. Associated Press Sports Writer The Now York Yankees, whose ! runiiway victories In the American league were the despair of all ri vals, are ottiim a laste of their own medicine these days, and it's a hit doubtful if they like it. In the last three American lea gue pen nunt drives, contenders used to play .700 baseball only to find that no only could they not pain an inch but actually lost ground to the lankee steamroller that over Ioiik stretches could play at better than an .Sou clip. The same, thins is holding true Again this season, except that the Yanks have yielded their accus tomed "Simon Legree" role to Con nie Mack's Philadelphia Athletics. The Yankees of l!l!t pull up half a game one day only to watch the A'ts increase their lead by winnin a double bill or by winning while! the Yanks lose. It's all most dis heartening to Miller Huggins. just ; ns it was to managers of would- . 'be contenders when the Yankee Ajuachine was running wild. Through the enforced idleness of the Athletics, the Yanks found an I opportunity to whittle away a lit-; tie of the A's lead yesterday and: just barely took advantage of it. 1 It took a home-run by the one ami only George Herman Ruth tg en- j nble the Yankees to down the St.! Louis Browns, 7-6. in 1 2 innings and cut the Athletics lead to 10; games. it h the score tied at (i-all in the 12th. liuth. the first man at bat, drove the ball Into the bleachers for his 24th homer of the season. Lou Gehrig had hit his 25th homer in the first inning with one on. A f o u r -run ra lly in the ninth gave Cleveland 9 to 6 triumph over the Washington Senators. It was the Indians' third in a row over the Senators, Aided by a home-run and two singles by Marty McMunus, De- droit's rookie pitcher, Kyle Gra- --yi.ini won his first game in the American league, beating the Uos ton Hod Sox, Ji-3. Gvaham gave up only nine hits and blanked the j Sox after the third inning, j In the National league, the Chi cago Cubs increased their lead over Pittsburgh to two and a half games by trouncing the Phillies again, 7 to 2, for their seventh successive victory. Guy Itush won 1 his 14th game of the season against a single defeat, giving the Phils six hits. The Cubs won the panic in the third, bunching four hits with h base on balls and an error, for six runs. Uiggs Stephenson drove In three of the runs with a long home-run. ! John McG raw's Giants pounded Alexander, Krunk House and Hal lahan for 10 hits and beat St. Louis ! X-r.. Mel Ott got his 2Mb homer of the season. Cincinnati ran its winning siren k to five by healing PrnoUlyn in both ends of a double bill, 4-3 and 7-". The Reds bundled their five hits off William Watsnn Clark to good advantage in the first game. In h " $,,H (f,t-'(-'"tL Ha'zy Vance was hit w f hard and retired for a pinch batsman after pitching the first neven Innings. T BR!

Iloxers therefore are to be given the same protection against "im ported labor" as if they were rail road men or carpenters. To make the alien boxer's status perfectly clear, the liritish boxing board of control ha.H issued the following statement: "Any alien boxer, in a n a g e r. trainer, etc., who wishes to come to this country to fulfill employ- n of per - liagement or to take up ment muBt be in possession mission Issued by the ministry of labor fn accordance with Article (3) (h) of the aliens order.
