White Sox
Steal Bases
For Victory
Um Your Foot, Now Policy
of Chicogo Team At They
. Advance to Third Place
By ARNOLD SERLITZKI
CHICAGO, July 8 (VP) If
batt won't break up a ball
game, use your feet. That is the
policy with Chicago's White Sox
who are running wild on the
bases and getting away with it.
They got away with it again
yesterday a cute steal of home
In the 14th inning by Wally
Moses with two out and the
bases loaded to continue their
dazzling dash up the-American
league ladder.
Just 17 days ago the harum
scarum hose were tied for last
place. Today they are in third,
four games behind New York's
pace-setting Yankees. - Tonight
they get around to the Yankees,
in the first of a five-game se
ries. Victory would be the 11th
in their last 13 games.
Yesterday's stolen base, which
brought a 3 to 2 win over Bos
ton, was the 72nd of the season
for the fidgety-footed Sox whose
only rivals in this matter are
Washington's Senators and their
George Case. It was the third
time this year the Sox have
stolen their way home and the
second time Moses has accora-
piished the trick.
He did it first on May S
against Cleveland in the 11th
inning after the Sox already
had scored twice. Don Kolloway
scored on June 3 at Boston in
a. ninth inning triple steal with
Luke Appling and Joe Kuhel.
Moses is leading the parade
of White Sox base stealers with
18 two more than he's ever
accounted for in a full season
previously. Then comes Thur
man Tucker with 16, Appling
with 11, and Kolloway with 10.
They're not all kids, either.
Moses is 32 and Appling 34.
Even Joe Kuhel, age 37, has
(Wiped seven bases.

Washington Wonder Team Was Tied for

By JUDSON BAILEY

The honeymoon seems to be

Washington still was a wonder

NEW YORK, July 8 (IP) By
way of giving ball players credit
for everything, the International
league plans to publish a separ
ate set of statistics this season
covering performances during in
nings wiped out of the regular
records by rain, curfews or other
acts of providence or the dim-
out. . . Pointing out that the rules
once gave credit only for the
number of bases to bring in the
winning run when a player
broke up a game with a homer.
Figger Filbert Ernie Lanigan
asks why not give them credit
for these odd fragments of in
nings, too?

REWRITING THE BOOK
Roy P. Drachman of the Tuc
son, Ariz., Semi-Pro Baseball
league relays this report of a re
cent game between the Davis-
Monthan and Marana air bases.
. . . Bill Clemensen, who once
toiled for the Pittsburgh Pirates,
is the Davis-Monthan manager
and victim of the mellerdram
mer. . . After three innings Bill's
team was leading 15-2, but Mar
ana scored seven runs after two
were out in the seventh and re
peated the same stunt in the
ninth to tie the score. . . . Clem
ensen put himself in to pitch the
last few innings and after each
team had scored in the 15th he
felt so sure of winning that he
allowed a Manara pitcher, Ivan
cich, who had been knocked out
in the ninth, to return to the hill
rather than call the game be
cause the other team had run out
of hurlers. . . Davis-Monthan
pounded Ivancich for two runs
in the 16th, but Marana got to
Clemensen for three and won the
ball game, 21-20.

first place in the American
league.
Today the. Senators are In
fourth place as the result of los
ing five of their last six games
and even though they are only a
single percentage point out of
third place their prospects of
again threatening for the lead
are not bright.
The Senators' present plight
may be traced to weaknesses that
were apparent even before the
club collapsed on its current
western trip. They had a prob
lem at third base that was so
hooeless that Manager Ossie
Bluege in desperation finally in
stalled Veteran Outfielder Bob
Johnson at the hot corner.
Moreover, the Detroit Tigers
and Chicago White Sox have
taken advantage of the Senators'
slump to put on two of the fast
est spurts of the season in the
American league. The Tigers,
who moved into second place
yesterday by beating Washington
9-1, have won nine of their last
11 games and the Sox have won
eight of 10.
Hal Newhouser, the Tigers'
slim southpaw star, pitched five-
hit ball in beating the Senatoi
The White Sox nosed out the
Boston Red Sox 3-2 when Wally
Moses stole home with the bases
loaded and two out in the 14th
inning. It was his 18th stolen
base of the season.
New York's Yankees complet
ed a sweep of their four game
series at St. Louis as Spud
Chandler shut out the Browns
2-0 on six hits.
The only other teams to get
into action yesterday were Cin
cinnati and Boston in the Nation
al league. They divided a dou-
bleheader with Elmer Riddle
pitching three-hit ball as the
Reds won the first game 5-1 and
Manny Salvo coming back with
a five-hit performance for a 4-2
decision in the nightcap.

This was on the authority to

the tee with half a dozen bulls

His longest drive of 255 ynrds
was with the old pellet. The re
processed ball averuged eight
yards more in distance.
A few days later Demaret re-1
