The Aussie scribe couldn't quite fig ure out why it was called 'foot ; ball' when there was so little kicking and the Irishman con cluded "one thing Belfast fans will have to remember in the future if they want Jo appear knowledgeable.

BALDY'S BAND By JUDSON BAILEY Associated Press Sports Writer The Chicago White Sox have been going nowhere in the American league ever since the season started, but they have attained one distinction denied every other club in the circut. They are the only team to sweep a doublehcadcr from the world champion New York Yankees and they have accomplished the feat not once, but twice. When the Sox first turned the trick in New York on June 28, the Yanks were in a slump and the Sox didn't get much credit. It was like picking on a man while he was down. But they caught the cham pions last night at the crest of a winning streak that included four straight victories and 15 of their last 16 games and proceed ed to whip the Yankees at the kind of ball for which New York is noted slugging. The first game was played at twilight and the Yanks gave Atley Donald a 5-1 lead with five runs in the third inning, two of them on Joe DiMaggio's 16th homer. Then the Sox slugged back to win 6-5 in 11 innings with old Sam West driving in four of Chic. 30 s runs. The second game, played un der the lights, saw the Sox take an early 5-2 lead, the Yanks tie the score in the sixth, and then Chicago come back with two runs in its half of the same frame to win 7-5. This merely dented the Yanks' big first place margin to 12 games, because the Boston Red Sox were nosed out 7-6 in 11 innings at Cleveland when Roy Weatherly singled with the bases loaded. The other American league contests were equally wild. At St. Louis the Washington Senators squeezed past the Browns again, 11-10 with four runs in the ninth inning. The Detroit Tigers walloped the Philadelphia -Athletics 12-7 in an affair that would have been considerably lopsided ex cept for five Detroit errors. In the National league the Brooklyn Dodgers enlarged their lead to eight gomes by beating the St. Louis Cardinals 4-3 in a twilight tussle that was halted in the last of the seventn by wartime dimout regulations in the New York area. The two doubleheaders which completed the senior circuit card were halved. The Chicago Cubs welcomed Van Lingle Mungo back into the majors a bit rudely, beating the New York Giants 4-2 even though held to seven hits in the first namp. The Giants took the second eame. however. 3-1, with Dick Kartell and Babe Young hit ting homers. The Pittsburgh Pirates took their first game at Boston 3-0 on five-hit hurling by Truett min Sewell after being shut nut for seven stanzas by Al Jav. ery. Then the Braves retaliated with a 6-5 decision In the night cap in behalf of Big Jim Tobin Slug Pace Held by Pelicans Larson Threaten1! Crapo's Lead As Outfielder Slips Klamath's Pelicans maintain ed their .321 team batting aver age in last weekend's series with the Dorris Lumberjacks but Paul crapo, slugging iirst sacker-out- fielder, slipped 18 points to .433. The spring bridegroom hit only three for nine against the 'Jacks to see his margin over Shortstop Bud Larson slide to four percentage points. Larson, swinging a neat .415 last week, plastered four safeties in eight trips to climb to .429 The Dorris tiffs also saw Man ager Ernie Bishop fall 36 points to .357 and into fourth place be low Second Baseman Earl Hamp ton who dropped off four points from .362 to .358. Outfielder Hi Hatfield, with five for 10, soared from .333 to .356 and into fifth place. I Pitcher Virg Haynes added an other victory to his half-dozen for a 7 to 1 record while Ken Benham dropped another . to wind up with 3 and 3. This weekend the Whitebirds expect to fatten batting and pitching averages as well as their loop won and loss record when they meet Grants Pass in a Sun day doubleheadcr starting at 1:30.

By The Associated Press It appvurs the San Francisco Seals made a good baseball deal in acquiring Al Lien, 26-ycnr-old hurler from Taeoma. of the West ern International league. The lanky southpaw held the Los AiircIcs Angels, leaders of the Pacific Coast league, to three hits last night to shut out the Angels, 1 to 0, in a nightcap to a doubleheadcr. San Francisco dropped the seven-inning opener, 4 to 6. as Sam Gibson, veteran ehucker, was driven from the mound in the midst of a five-run assault in the third when Glenn Stewart cracked a two-run homer. Lien's win his second In two starts appeared brill innt when compared to the comparative heavy-hitting in the first game when the Angels collected 13 safeties to 8 for the Seals. San Diego and Seattle also staged a two-game show with the Padres nipping a Rainier win streak at 10 games by a 7 to 6 decision in the seven-inning opener, delayed more than an hour because Seattle's equipment was late arriving. - The Padres rallied to over come a 6 to 2 Rainier lead in the first game, but Seattle recovered in the afterpiece to blank San Diego, 9 to 0 with a 15-hit attack. For the second night runninc. the last-place Portland Beavers won from the second-spot Sacra mento Solons. The team battled it out for 11 innings with a pair of singles bringing in a run for the Portland win. 2 to 1. Sid Cohen yielded 9 hits against 10 safeties allowed by Sacramento hurlcrs, Clarence Beers and Bill Schmict, who was charged with the loss after he took over in the ninth with the score notted at one-all. Jack Salveson, Oakland pitch er, worked a three-hit perform ance to shut out Hollywood, 5 to 0, at Emeryville. Oak batters sent Veteran Charley Root to the showers with a first-inning spree good for five hits and four runs. 1:1. i . "1 '-V, n- VW, Iti-iWuifc, (Official U.

OLSEN'S SIXTH IN ROW CHICAGO Vcrn Olsen's shutout over the Giants was the southpaw's sixth straight victory for the Cubs. Now would be a swell time for folks to start returning the cups of sugar they've borrowed in the past few years. College Grid Programs Harried by Tiro Shortogo By JOHN H. COLBURN CINCINNATI, July 30 (V) Transportation difficulties, al ready pinching the average per son, arc about to become a real pain to college athletic pro grams. That's the belief expressed Wednesday as the men who keep their fingers on the pulse of intercollegiate athletio activi ties conference commissioners concluded a three-day discus sion of how war is affecting the sports picture. Here's how they sized up the situation: Some football games have been moved, and more will be, from small towns to large popu lation centers for two reasons: tfl ease transportation problems of fans, and to make games available to more people as a beneficial morale influence. Duo to demands on rail and bus services, colleges will have to abandon chartered cars and buses and reduce athletic squads to fit limited space avail able on public carriers.; Long trips by squads engaged in minor sports, such as golf, ten nis and fencing, will be cur tailed or eliminated. "As far as football Is con cerned, it will mean taking the games to the crowds," said Asa Bushnell of the Eastern Inter collegiate association. "Football is a vital war sport, and col leges will cooperate in handling transportation problems arising from big games. "There will be no special football trains for fans this year and colleges want fans who will drive short distances to share rides with friends and conserve tires." Vancouver Caps Add Game to Wl Loop Lead By The Associated Preit The Vancouver Ciiplliuios lidd ed another full game tu their Western International Baseball league load lust night with u 10-2 victory over the Tacumn Tigers while the Snlem Sena tors pushed across four runs in the ninth inning to edge out Spokane, 7-6.
