New York, May 7-JflJ.R) The
Detroit Tigers, sporting an odd
combination of tightwad twirl-
ins and a "hit or miss" batting
order, were responsible today
for a new wartime shortage
scoreboard zeros.
It's either feast or famine for
the Bengals, who generally
spend their time shutting out
the opposition or getting shut
out. Yesterday it was the op
position that got horse-collared
twice. Lefty Hal Newhouser
blanked the champion St. Louis
Browns with Just one hit to win,
3 to 0, and in the second game,
Althon Benton won his fourth
straight game and his second
shutout, 1 to 0.
Tight pitching highlighted
other games. At Boston, Rookie
Dave Ferris of the Red Sox
proved his sensational debut last
week was no fluke by blanking
the Yankees, S to 0, for his sec
ond straight shutout. He scat
tered seven hits and made two
himself. Hank Borowy turned
the tables for New York, win
ning the nightcap, 2 to 0.
Chisox Win Two
The White Sox took a firmer
hold on first place at Chicago,
beating the Indians twice, 3 to 0,
and 6 to 4.
Emil (Dutch) Leonard, back
after being rejected from mili
tary service, pitched a three-hitter
at Washington, beating the
Athletics, 2 to 0. after Philadel
phia won. the opener, 3 to 2, to
break a six-game losing streak.
The Giants beat the Braves,1

Philadelphia Beaten
The amazing Dodgers took two
at Philadelphia, 7 to 5, and 10

The world champion St. Louis
Cards finally started disporting
themselves in pennant winning
style, knocking the visiting Chi
cago Cubs out of second place
with a double win, S to Z, and
9 to 1.
Ed Heusser, who has allowed
only two runs In three winning
games, gave Cincinnati a 3 to 1
victory at Pittsburgh in the
opener. Truett (Rip) Sewell
countered by giving the Bucs a
5 to 1 victory in the second.

"Gorgeous" George Wagner,
self-styled toast of the coast and
former light-heavyweight cham
pion, has been signed to face
Tony Morelli In the headline
bout of Mack Lillard's Thursday
night mat fracas at Medford
armory. Both are well versed
in the school of rough wrestling
maneuvers and fans who like
that type of muscle twisting will
be treated to a rare dish.
The semi-windup will be ex
actly the opposite when Walter
"Sneeze" Achieu and Georges
Dusette, junior heavyweight
crown-bearer, square off In the
four-round go.
The opener will see another
old favorite back in the local
picture In the person of Paavo
Katonen who also is a former
light-heavyweight champion. He
will face ntone Leone.

LUCKY -BUT SMART, TOO. This
lady Is lucky because she enjoys one
of the lowest residential rates for
electric service in the whole nation.
She buys twice as much good electric
service with her electrical dollar as
the Average American Homemaker
buys with hers. Just think of it
twice as much.
Follow the lady's good example. Use your
cheap electric service as effectively as you can, now.
And plan to make your postwar home ALL-ELECTRIC!
