MEDFORlU-TRIBUrffi MB English Win Curtis Cup As DeMoss Drops Finale Muirf ield, Scotland (U.R) Britain's golfing girls nipped a dangerous American comeback surge in the final match Satur day to win the Curtis cup for the first time in history, five match es to four. The British took a 2 to 1 lead on the first day of play Friday. To gain their triumph they had to wait out the final match be tween Grace DeMoss of Corval lis, Ore., and Elizabeth Price of England after' the Yanks had tied the series at four matches all. Although the 28-year-old Miss Price was sick all night and not sure she should play, she poured it on in the last seven holes to win, 3 and 2, and make history in the process. Since the Curtis cup series officially began in 1932, the Americans had won five of the, six matches while the other was a tie. Dot Kirby of Atlanta, Ga., the U. S. Amateur champion, and Claire Doran of Cleveland, made gallant come - from - behind bids for an American victory, and they won their matches. Miss Kirby ws three down after 27, but rallied and took the last two holes to beat Scottish champ Jean Donald, 1 up. Miss Doran was two down after nine and again after 18, but went one up by 27 and beat Irish champ ion Philomena Garvey, 3 and 2. Polly Riley of Fort Worth, Tex., was the only American to have an easy time. She leaped to a four up lead on the first nine holes and went on to trounce Moira Paterson, a Glas gow school teacher, 6 and 4.

Sauer, who has hit 30 or more homers in each of his seasons with Cincinnati and Chicago, al so led the National in that de partment with 12 and topped the majors in runs batted in with 48, in oficial statistics which included Thursday's day games. Dom Heads American Dom DiMaggio of the Red Sox and Al Rosen of the Indians still ranked 1-2 in the American League batting race, but the little Boston center f i e 1 de r widened his margin over the Cleveland third baseman during the past week.
