The distance from the leading Bengals to the sixth-place de fending champion St Louis Browns is only 5t games today. Inconsistency continues to be the only consistent factor in the pennant race with each club taking turns blowing hot and cold. After dropping two dou bleheaders in succession, the Washington Senators turned on Detroit last night and dumped them twice. Browns Dump Yank Cleveland, which has been showing signs of life before hit ting Philadelphia, was bumped off in both games of a twi-night double by the Athletics, while the Brownies, struggling all year to stay even with the .500 mark turned Yankee killers and beat New York two games. Sue teams have won more than they nave lost and only the cellarite Athletics, 17 1 tilts off the pace, are hopelessly dis tanced. Washington's twin pitching stars, Dutch Leonard and Roger Wolff, made life miserable for the Tigers, who have been hit ting an anemic .210 on the cur rent jaunt Leonard made a one-run lead stand up from the fourth inning, 4-3, with the help of a fine relay throw to the plate by Gil Torres, cutting off the tying run. Wolff was in con trol all the way, allowing only four singles in a 3-1 triumph, Chisox Whip Boston The Chicago White Sox took advantage of Clem Hausmann's wildness in the third inning to start a five-run rally and go on to a o-3 nod over the Boston rled Sox behind Ed Lopat Brooklyn thinks it knocked off the first place Chicago Cubs in the National but the Dodgers won't know for sure until Sep tember 15 when they play the ninth inning of a game "sus pended" yesterday at the end of the eighth with the Brooks lead ing 10-4. The Dodgers had to catch a train. Bill Voiselle blew a five-run lead and was batted oft the hill as Pittsburgh swamped the New York Giants, 13-5, giving Wal ter (Boom Boom) Beck his first victory in a Pirate uniform.

Leone's bestial visago was thus not missed by the patrons of Gladiator's Gully, In the subsequent main event It was Georges Dussette's full Nelson against Kmlo Piluso's powerful deadlocks with Dus sette emerging tho victor In a fine bout. It may have lacked the flavor of sumo of the more rugged performances of Punch Pliiin, but to many it was a welcome change. Dusette captured tho first fall In the second heat by applying a bone-crushing full-Nelson that was more than Ernie bargained for. Ernie Takes Fall Not to be outdone, however, Piluso proved his mettle by an nexing the second fall and even ing the count with a headlock that mode Dussctte's head look the size of an unhealthy orange. In the fourth canto tho boys went at It hot and heavy. First one had the advantage and then the other with each trying desperately for his favorite hold. The clambake came to a climax when Georges finally slaoped on another Nelson for keeps to take the final fall and the match. Jack Llnscomb lived up to his renutntlnn In the seml-wiiul uo with Milt Olsen bv getting himself d'squall'lcd.
