New York, 16 OI.F9 The St. Louis Browns regained first place In the American league to night when Jack Kramer pitch ed a one-hit ball game to defeat the Chicago White Sox, 9-0.

Mc Carthy, seeking to rest his aces for the big series with Detroit next week, saw his strategy ex plode in his face when the A's acquired a 5 to 1 lead and when Atley Donald came In to re lieve him In the fifth, the dam age was irreparable. Mack himself gambled in itartlng the erratic Newsom, who had dropped five straight decisions to the Yankees this aeason. The big fellow was right today, however, letting no Yankee get more than a single hit. All of the Yankee runs came on homers. Tom De La Cruz of the Cincinnati Reds missed a no-hltter when Jim Russell of Pittsburgh hit a first Inning triple, after which he pitched eight hltless Innings to win 2 to 1.
