Blow Over Right Field Fence Is Disastrous for Senators Braves Lose National League Pinnacle to Cubs By Gayle Talbot (Associated Press Bporta Writer) One bad .pitch a game, one ball that geta away from the pitcher and goes down the batten alley, can very easily cost a good team a pennant, aald Walter Johnson recently In ex plaining bis preference for mounds men with tight control. As If to bear out his boas' con tention, General Alvln Crowder of the Washington Senators tossed one up that exactly suited Lou Gehrig of the Yankees in the sixth inning of yesterday'a tut between the Amer ican league pace-setters. Blow Clears Bases Three Tanks were on base at the time and Gehrig, further bearing out Johnson's theory, spanked the ball oter the right field fence. The Yanka gathered another run In the ninth for a final score of 6 to 0. but It wae Gehrlg'a blow that knocked the wind out of the Senators. Charley Buffing didn't give them a hit the last alx Innings. The victory perched the Yankees on top by four full games and left the Senators with only a two-game lead over the third place Detroit Tigers, who were beating Chicago, 11 to 3, In the first half of a sched uled doubleheader. The second game was rained out In the fifth with the count tied, 1 to 1. Foxx Hits 15th Homer Jimmy Poxx bit his fifteenth homerun of the year, as the Athletics pounded out a 7 to 1 win over Bos- ton. Cleveland and St. Louis were rained out. The Boston Braves dropped off the National league pinnacle, yielding to the Idle Chicago Cubs, when they got the worst of a slugging match with the Phillies. 17 to 13. Five runs In the eighth eettled the argument, Brooklyn got Its batting order mixed up and lost a run that would have won In regulation time, but went on to beat the Giants anyway, 8 to 3, In twelve rounda. Pittsburgh made it three straight from Cincinnati, 8 to 2, and went Into fifth plaoe, scoring all Its runs off Bed Lucas In the second Inning. YALE'S NEW SPORT PLAN SHAKES COLLEGE WORLD NEW YORK, May 37. (AP) Yale's a t h 1 e 1 1 o right-about-face caught the college sports world un awares today and left It astonished and perhaps, mildly aghast as well. Only scattering comment on Old Ell's plan of sharp curtailment of intercollegiate competition In favor of Intra-mural sports, was available as most college heads preferred to take "time out" and study the re port. What comment there was, however, was distinctly favorable, although here and there a dissenting voloe was heard. Major points In the new policy, designed to go Into effect, partially at least. In 1033, .follow: Reduction In number of football games to five and with major and traditional opponents only. Free admission of undergraduates to all contests and reduced' prices to alumni and public with endow ment fund to cover athletic expendi tures. No organized practice In sports out of their normal season. No scouting even If opponent con tinues to scout Yale. Substantial cuts in varsity squads and number of Junior varsity teams and elimination of class teams and ISO-pound football team. All students eligible for house teams regardless of scholastic stand ing; amateur coaches only for these teams. For several years colleges have been seeking to de-emphaslze sports, but none of the plans put Into prac tice thus far have been as drastic as that proposed for Yale. IS FEATHER KING DETROIT, May 87.

No statement was msde by the A. A. U. last night In granting the card to Paddock. VOLK AND UDELL BATTLE TO DRAIN KLAMATH FALLS, Ore., May 37.

J., atar, posted a fine 73 for the first 18 holes of the 88 hole qualifying round In the Brit ish women's golf championship to day. Playing steadily all the way. Miss Orcutt was out In 88 and home In 38 to finish her round only two over par of 71. Her putting waa deadly moat of the way. She holed a 30-footer at the 17th and a 10- footer at the 18th.

Mrs. Eileen Bennett Whlttlngatall and Betty Nuthall, of England, gain ed the other finals berth with a 8-4, 8-6, 0-4 victory over Muriel Thomas and Ida Adamoff, the Anglo- French team. OVER OLD BASQUE NEW YORK, May 27. (AP) If Mickey Walker falls to get that match with Ernie Bchaat aa early In the outdoor aeason aa he ex pected, he can blame It all on Paulino Uzcudun, rock-ribbed old warrior from the Pyrenees. By the slimmest of margins and, partly at least, because of an Illegal punch at the end of the eighth round. Walker squeezed out a 10 round decision over Psullno In Madi son Squsre Garden last night. But the booes of a crowd of 8000 fol lowed Walker as he left the ring, while Psullno drew the ovstlon usually reserved for the winner. Tbt punch that turned the sym pathise of the crowd to the veteran Spaniard and the tide of battle toward Walker came after the bell had ended the eighth round. Paulino was partly at fault for, he landed a left hook to the body Just after the bell. But he dropped his hand and stepped back, and as he did. Wslker ewung a right that split the Spaniard's left eyebrow wide open. That blow beat Paulino for Walker opened the cut with the first punch In the ninth round and, blinded by the flow of blood, Paulino could do little from then on but step forward Into Walker's lefts to the hesd.
