FINEST DAIRY PRODUCTS BILL DIETRICH I New York, July 24 (U.R) It was simply a well-pitched 1 to 0 victory in 11 innings over the Yankees but it gave Blinky Bill Dietrich of the Chicago White Sox as big a thrill as the no-hit, no-run garge he twirled back In 1937. It was a victory of vindication for the 35-year-old right-hander, who has been beaten 19 times by the Yankees during his long American league career. And it couldn't have come at a more opportune time. The bombers were dropped into the second di vision for the first time since mid-June of last season while Manager Joe McCarthy remain ed away from the club, contem plating his resignation. Also helping to "button up the race were Louis (Bobo) New- som, the "turnabout" pitcher of the A s, and unsung Ed Klieman of the Indians, who knocked off the leading Tigers and the runner-up Senators in night games. Newsom, who has won four straight games after dropping 12 in a row, topped the Tigers with a 1-0 four-hit job. - Klieman pitched and batted his way to victory, beating the Senators at Washington, 2 to 1. The Pirates made 17 hits, in cluding homers by Jim Russell, Bob Elliott and Bill .Salked in an 8 to 5 victory over the Braves at Pittsburgh. Tommy Holmes, holder of the new National league consecutive games bat ting mark, dropped out of the lead as top hitter in the Majors after going hitless in his fourth straight game. He now has been at bat 18 straight times without a hit There were no other games in either .league.

THE LIP, STENGEL FOR YANKEE PILOT - New York. July 24 (U.R The best managerial job In base ballJoe McCarthy's post with the New York Yankees was open for bid today, with Leo Durocher of the Brooklyn Dodg ers and Casey Stengel of the Kansas City Blues among the most frequently-mentioned can didates. The names of Pitcher Charley Ruffing of the Yankees and Catcher Bill Dickey of the U. S. army and the Yanks also were discussed. That McCarthy's Job will be open no later than the end of this season seemed certain. The 58-year-old Irishman went to his farm near Buffalo, N. Y., today and said that after a rest there perhaps he would feel well enough to continue managing the Yanks for the rest of the season, McCarthy Worries Yankee President Larry Mac Phail disclosed yesterday that McCarthy had resigned, plead ing that he could not eat or sleep because of worry over his team, which now is in fifth place. Mc Carthy was asked to reconsider, but it was believed that at best he would only finish this season. Uurocher, scrappy Dodier oi- lot, was the natural suggestion aa replacement, since he is MacPhail man." It was Mac- Phail who made 'Lippy Leo" manager at Brooklyn, and Du rocher'a flamboyant personality suits the showman in MacPhail, who wants a colorful club that will draw the crowds.
