Ily Hugh 8. Fullcrton Jr.
(Associated Press Sports Writer.)
The leaders of the American
league pennant race, who threat
ened to leave the other teams so
far behind that thoy would bo
practically out of sight, have found
some tough sledding In the past
two weeks. They aro not yet
serious danger, for the only real
"menace" thut has arisen during
their western tour has come from
the Ht. Iouls Drowns, who were In
last place when tho trouble Btarted.
After rushing far ahead of all
the teams except Washington, the
champion Philadelphia Athletics
have scored Just eight victories to
six defeats with Cleveland, highest
ranking western team, still to be
faced twice more. And to mako
things look a bit tougher for tho
A's, the three aces of their pitch

have accounted for alt but one of
these victories.

second victory of tho tour yester

Washington was dropped to nn

the west as the Browns handed
them one of their worst beatings
of the season by a 7 to 0 count.
It was tho first time all season the

George Illaoholder did a great job
of It, giving one hit In the first

It was the Browns' 12th victory In
