CHI PM AN Associated Press Sports Writer The reported clacking of the Ath letic pitching stlf seems to ho gaih urinti confirmation in the west hut the cra;,h will have to assume n much woulder tone before it be comes audible to tlie Yankees across a chasm of HJly sanies.

Lou Gehrig also got his 27th of the season at Cleveland yes tor-1 day. ' Kulh's Sabbath drive placed him la a tie with Hack Wilson of the; Cubs and Mel Ott of the Giants j tor second place in the iii!fi!eagn; home-run derby and left him only three behind Chuck Klein of the.. Phillies, who has 33. t George Karnshaw undertook the ( task of taming the Tigers yester- day but in the ninth he served ' home-run ball to Hed Ilargrave with two Hcugals on base. i 1'argrave's drive sliced the nr.ir-; gin of the Macliincn to one thin ' run, and brought old Jack Quinn tu the box. Three singles and an error tied the scuro at S lo S, and Ossie Orwoll emerged from the! bullpen.

The champion Cards tied the game for s Alex with one in the ninth aad 1 won with two more in the 11th. The Cubs won two hard-fought! games in Hosion, by 4 to 1 on Sai urday and by 3 to 1 yesterday.

Gouid ( Associated Press Sports Kditor) SoitK't-ioies the first sixty-six years are the hardest. Pour years ago, I sut with Connie Mack in thu ; towered, neat ty uruered office he : occupies at S.tihe Park when not poised on the edne of the dugout, score-card In hand, directing the fieiit play of the Philadelphia Ath letics. "1 thought this was lo he our ye;u- ton ii seeinn that fate is against us." said Connie. He look ed old and weary. His youthful team had "blown" a good lend; era cl:ed in 1 iie st retell under 1 he strain of a lij.;ht pennant, race. Two years laj'r, in IitJ7, I sat for an hour in the same office, listening to Connie label tin? Yan kees as one of the greatest teams of all time in a year in which Habe liuth t Company made the Amer ican league race a runaway. "Put for bud breaks we might have made it closer but I do not think ours or any other eluhs could ha V stepped 1 ;ie Yanks this sea son." I Shift the sc-nery to indicate the lapse of two more years. It's August, l!tj!t, and hot; hotter in Philadelphia t ban most places. Connie removes coat, collar, lie and finally his shirt, soniew hai apologetically. Ifis visitor perhaps would like In do the same. Tueie is a gleam hi the Old Master's eye t!rit wasn't there four years ago or two years ago. In his liTl'u year, Mack's step is springier, hisJ kindly eyes I winkle. Soft spoken, ijuiet and courteous. This is TMi'l year. You can see what it means to Connie in nearly every word and gesture. Tuo many disaopf.intmeiits. the caution of an old campaigner keep Connie some what re.-erved. Put it takes nu scientist to tell that to th's lean, lovable man of nearly three score and ten, the American league pen nant l. ia t new seems certain tu be his for I a Li It means more than any of his pa'-t achievements. Uooi he consider the pennant won V "We!!. I'm. pt-Miid .!' the way llo hoyti have gone alnitR. We aie in a good position now. We b.ivo all tlie a (i vantage this year. J-asl season we had to do the chasing ami found (lie si ra in t"o much w ttea we finallv ' tugat e ;-, with the Yankees. The club Is playing s'uady hall now and ought to win. but we don't take an 1 hmg f;u granted. "You hi and "'orm If' grey 3- 9 i r jJcvvs-' r l "e v y,-$j? eyes twinkled, "we kind of sur prised 'em this year. They didn't : Iiink mucit of us In the spring training. I'll admit we didn't look ; so good and I talked pessimist)- 1 cully. Uut I really felt this was our year and I just wanted to pre vent any chance of ovcr-eonfioVnee or the folks expecting too much ' of us." II. .w do the "folk " foci now? "Well, you know it's sometimes astonishing. They come lo get autographs and pictures every day. Some people think we have won already. They semi me all kinds of gifts," and Connie waved bis hand at an assort ment . "1 get led -i's from all over the country, advising, warning, even t hreaten ing. A lot or them as much as tell me if we don't win this year they are 'off us.' " What's i hp main reason for the A's big lead? "Well, good steady hall. Put mostly confidence now. Onee the boys found they con hi heat t he Yankees and beat them decisively, liiey hit their stride. Wo beat the champions in t heir own grounds and we beat them here. And when we won it was by good margins while t bey just barely heal us when they did. like that. L!-t game Jack ',uinn lost to Wait lloyi, dim to two misjudged flyhalls." Conni'e dwells upon thu little t lungs thai have meant im pro e ln en t, greatness in Grove, JOarn sha w and Walhcrg. his pitching "hig three" ; in Simmons, Coch rane and "Koxxy," as Muck calls his sensational young first base man. Yes, they are all great, hut the (dd master deftly parries any attempt to have hini say they are any greater, if as great as t'.ie fam ous machine he guided to four pennants and three world's cham pionships from HMO to IIH-l. "With the old A's It was speed and deicn.M". though we also had good hitting. Now it's mainly hit ling, and we have plenty of that, hut we ali o have gnod pitching for defense." . .
