Hoodoo
Vanishes as
Browns Win
Loop Loaders Blast New
York to Remove Jinx; Palo
Hose Lose to Boston Again
By JACK HAND
Associated , Press Sports Writer
The "Yankee "hoodoo" that
is supposed . to haunt the St.
Louis Browns vanished in thin
air today as Luke Sewcll's lend
ers took charge of the Ameri
can league pennant race with
a three-game working margin.
Opening a long home stand
and a vital four-game series,
the Brownies blasted Em Roscr
and Johnny Johnson for an 8-0
edge while Bob Muncricf work
ed his shutout charm for the
third time, the second against
the Yanks.
Although Vem Stephens, the
R.B.I, king of the loop was out
of the lineup, the pennant
starved Browns uncorked a
home run punch from Milt
Byrnes, Gene Moore and diet
Laabs in a 12-hit total for their
fourth triumph over New York
in 11 starts.
Boston maintained its mas
tery over Chicago, notching an
11th straight at the White Sox's
expense on a 4-2 edge in 11 in
nings. Gordy Mnltzbcrgcr, lend
ing pitcher in the lcnguc, hnd
a six-game relief win streak
snapped as Tex Hughson picked
up win No. 14. '
' Jimmy Outlaw's single scored
Joe Hoover from second base
with, the big run as Detroit
took a 6-5 nod over Washing
ton in an 11-frame twilight con
test. Hal Newhouser gained his
14th ' triumph in relief at Al
Carrasqucl's expense.
Al Smith stopped a ninth in
ning Philadelphia rally one run
short and held on to pitch
Cleveland to a 4-3 margin over
the A's. Don Black was Connie
Mack's loser although First
Sacker Bill McGhee did his best
with four hits for a losing
cause.
St. Louis' more secure first
place tenant, the Cardinals of
the National league, had little
trouble in silencing Brooklyn,
5-0, in one of two games played
in Ford Frick's circuit.
Max Lanier turned back the
Dodgers with four hits but two
were off the bat of Dixie Walk
er who boosted himself into a
tie for the batting lead with
Stan Musial at .354. Hal Gregg
suffered his eleventh defeat.
Despite their disastrous road
trip, the Brooks drew a crowd
of 19,349 paid.
Phil Weintraub was the slug
ger man of the evening, clout
ing a grand slam homer to ac
count for four runs of New
York's 5-2 margin on Pitts
burgh. The clout, Phil's 12th,
hoisted the Giants' first sacker
into the runs batted in lead
and assured Bill Voisello of his
12th victory and Fritz Oster
mueller of his third defeat.
Philadelphia, Boston, Cincin
nati and Chicago were not
scheduled.

Swede Clips Full Socond
Off Old Record In Race
Against Gundor-Wonder
STOCKHOLM, July 19 (iT)
Arne Andcrsson, the flying
Swedish school teacher, rim n
world record mile of 4:01.6 yes
terday, an Indication that the
much-discussed, but elusive four
minute milo is just around the
corner.
In clipping a full second off
the world standard of 4:02.6
that he set a year ago July 1,
Andcrsson bent his more famous
countryman, Guilder Hncgg, by
two meters. Hncgg wns timed in
4:02, his fastest speed for the
distance.
H was the fourth world record
that the Swedish runners hnve
broken within the Inst month.
On June 25 Haegg set a new
standard of 8:48.4 for the two
mile and on July 7 sped the 1800
meters in the record time of
3:43. A few days later Andcrs
son, who used to bo known as
Haegg's shadow because he al
ways ran second to Gunder, hung
up a mark of 2:56.6 for the three
quarters mile.
Andcrsson's 4:01.6 mile was
the latest development In the
running of tho event that has
become a monopoly for hint and
Haegg. They have shattered the
mark four times in the last two
years, cutting nearly five sec
onds off the 4:06.4 turned in by
Sidney Wooderson, of England
in 1937. '

Auto Industry Freed to
Make New Car Models
WASHINGTON, July IB P)
When automobiles can be made
again, the Industry will be free
to mnko new models rather than
return to tho 1042 models, Vice
Chairman R. L. Boulwnro of tho
war production bonrd snld to
day. Tho Industry probnbly will be
allowed to aim nt a starting rate
of 2,130,000 cars a year, about
hnlf of 1941 output, Boulwnrc
told reporters following a meet
ing on reconversion planning
with the automobile industry ad
visory committee.
B mil ware stated also that in
WPB's opinion "it would be ut
terly hopeless to think" that the
Industry could start production
lines rolling simultaneously. A
simultaneous start had been ad
vocated by tho Industry, in ordor
to give no maker an advantage
in tho postwar market.
Tho new WPB order permit
ting every industry to build ex
perimental models of plunned
postwar products, effectivo July
22, will rule out the possibility
of any government requirement
that all nroducors go back to
their 1942 models, Boulwnrc
snld.
- However, automobile execu
tives at the meeting reported
little expectation that tho first
postwar cars would be substan
tially different from the last ones
made, Boulware added.
"This mainly because the com
panies almost unanimously re
port a shortage of technical help,
including draftsmen, designers,
engineers, and tool and dlo mak
ers, who now are still deeply
