VIA HAYES HITS
New York, June 2 (U.R)
The Cleveland Indians, who be
gan the season with little more
tiian hope, may have traded
themselves into a pennant-con
tending position, if today s 4 to
0 victory over the American
league-leading New York Yan
kees may be taken at face value.
Frank Hayes, the iron-man
catcher obtained from the Phil
adelphia Athletics last week in
the season's most surprising
swap, and Lambert Meyer, ob
tained early in the season from
Detroit, played prominent parts
in helping Pitcher Klieman win
the game.
Hayes opened the second in
ning with a single, moved to
third on a hit and a fielder's
choice, and scored on Meyer's
single through the box. Again
in the ninth Hayes and Meyer
collaborated to score, this time
with some help from a third
tradee" Don Ross, formerly of
the Tigers.
Hayes walked and Seerey,
Ross, Rocco and Meyer singled
in succession. These blows
chased Bunham with his fourth
straight defeat.
The second-place Detroit Ti
gers failed to take advantage of
this Yankee slip, since they could
do littla more with Hausmann
of the Boston Red Sox than New
York could with Klieman. Haus
mann hurled six-hit ball in a 3 to
1 victory.
The St. Louis Browns shut out
Philadelphia for the second time
in two days. Kramer was the
winner by a 9 to 0 score, giving
only four hits.v
Rick Ferrell drove in four
runs as Washington beat the
Chicago White Sox, 8 to 1.
In the National League, Pitts
burgh topped the Philadelphia
Phils, 7 to 6, despite Vince Di
Maggio's grand slam homer. The
winning run scored on an error
by Hamner.
The Boston Braves nipped the
Chicago Cubs in a 10-inning
game, 5 to 4.
Otis Clingman, veteran of the
wrestling mat and a big favorite
with Medford armory fans a' few
years ago, will meet some out
standing ' opponent on next
Thursday night's card, Promoter
Mack Lillard has announced.
Clingman, who now operates a
restaurant in Eugene, recently
embarked on a comeback cam
paign in which he has been suc
cessful In northwest rings.
Tex Hagcr, speedy little mus
tached muscle twister who has
