By Judson Bailey , (Associated Press Sports Writer) j Ernie Bonham, the undefeated I righthanded pitching star of the New York Yankees, is getting' too good for his own good. i Jumbo won his eighth straight game yesterday, 4-1 at the ex pense of the Chicago White Sox. He kept eight hits scattered, j walked only two, and would: have had a shutout except for a , homer by Joe Kuhel in the seventh. This pitching almost certainly would have satisfied the sup porters of any other hurler in ! the majors, but the onlookers at j Yankee stadium were quick to ' size it up as one of Bonham's poorest performances of the i season. j In the first place it wasn't a ' shutout. The big fellow had ad-1 ministered four of these in his I first seven starts and by the j time he had laid six goose-eggs ' end to end yesterday some of! the boys figured he should have had another. Besides it was the first time this year he had allowed more than seven hits. And those two bases on balls, tsk, tsk. He had yielded only five passes in seven games previously, and two in one game surely was slipping, j Tigers Beaten j The Philadelphia Athletics brought the Detroit Tigers to a sudden stop with a 8-1 decision on Jack Knott's six-hit hurling. ! The St. Louis Browns routed j Sid Hudson with in eight-run 1 assault in the second inning and 1 weni on to whip Washington, I 9-5, dropping the Senators into the American league cellar. j In the National league the Pittsburgh Pirates received a re prieve from the weather man. : Meanwhile the Boston Braves moved a game closer to the second-place Cardinals by captur ing a 4-3 twilight struggle at St. i Louis. ' J Frank (Rube) Melton Ditched and batted the Phils to a 2-1 ! 10-lnning triumph over the Cin cinnati Reds in a night same. He spaced six hits and doubled home the winning run. Big Paul Derringer pitched five-hit ball, but his teammates commit ted four errors. Russell Homers Glen Russell, whose lob as Chicago Cubs' first baseman has been threatened by the purchase of Jimmy Foxx, belted a home run with the bases full In the first inning to lead Chicago to a 0 to 2 triumph over the New York Giants.

(B) If you are at home, take immediate blackout precau tions. Extinguish all lights. Have your fire protection equip ment ready. Go to your blackout room; it should be the safest room in your home. Stay away from windows. Bomb explosions shatter glass for considerable distances. 2. Don't use the telephone.
