cluding 18 servicemen, and red-
haired Pauline Detz of Los An
geles sought her third consecu
tive women's title as the nation
al amateur tennis championships

the Andes who four times has
tried and four times has failed
in his quest for America's great
est tennis honor, faced Pvt.
Dave Johnson of Washington in
his opening match. And a break
in the draw Indicated that for
the first time the pigeon-toed
youngster who swings his racket
with both hands might reach the
finals and even the title.
There were only two nation
ally-ranked players In his half
of the draw, fourth seeded Billy
Talbert of Indianapolis, whom
he has beaten consistently, and
seventh ranking Bob Falken

New York, Aug. 30. (U.R)
The Detroit Tigers, hoping to
gain the American league pen
nant on "two wings and a
prayer," today held their loftiest
perch of the season and largely
through the efforts of one man.
Paul (Dizzy) Trout, the major
leagues' winningest pitcher, yes
terday proved himself a one
man threat to the at. Louis
Browns' quest for their first
American league flag when he
drove in five runs while pitch
ing his ninth consecutive victory
and his 22nd of the season.
The Tigers defeated the Chi
cago White Sox 7-0, to move
into, second place ahead of Bos
ton and New York on his nine
hitter. Trout was a one man gang.
At bat he hit a homer his fifth
o the season a double and a
single to pace the Tigers at the
plate. On the mound he was ex
ceptionally tight in the clutches
as he recorded his second
straight shutout and his sixth of
the season. Dizzy and his team
mate, Lefty Hal Newhouser,
have won 43 of the Tigers' 66
victories this season.
The league leading St. Louis
Browns stretched their margin
to four games by beating the
Cleveland Indians, 8-3.
Dreisewerd Wins
Boston and New York cut
each others throats by splitting
a twin-bill, the Red Sox taking
the first game 8-1 behind the six
hit debut pitching of their new
ly acquired west coast rookie,
Clem Dreisewerd. Seventeen
hits were flailed off three Yan
kee pitchers. The Yanks won
the nightcap 11-2.
The Philadelphia Athletics,
thanks to the timely hitting of
Catcher Frankie Hayes beat the
Washington Senators twice, 3-1
and 11-4..
In the National league, the
Chicago Cubs ended a seven
game losing streak by beating
the Pittsburgh Pirates 15-4 in
the first of two games but the
Bucs came back to win the
finale, 5-4.
Ted Wilks won his 11th con
secutive victory and his 14th of
the season against a suigle loss
as the league leading '"St. Louis
Cardinals beat the Cincinnati
Reds, 3-0. The yoiuig right-hander
had a no-hitter going for
seven innings until Frank Mc
Cormick, the only Red to reach
second base, singled. Wilks al
lowed Cincinnati but three hits
in gaining the shutout.
Ott Homers
Bill Voiselle of the New York
Giants, with Manager Mel Ott
and Catcher Ernie Lombardi
hitting homers, recorded his
17th win of th campaign as the
Giants beat Boston, 4-2.
The Brooklyn Dodgers defeat

est tournament, valued at
$40,100 in cash, will be held

yesterday, Furgol shot a one-over-par
73 to replace Dale
Morey, Indianapolis, Ind., as
amateur king, while Christian
