Harris' three-hit pitching. The Ti-
gers, however, maintained their grip
on the American League's second
place.
Harris, a chunky right-hander,
gained his fifth successive victory byt
stopping the Detroit batting attack
almost cold. He gave Don Ross a
single and Ned Harris (no relation)
a double and a single, and Detroit's
lone run in the fifth was unearned.

CLEVELAND, July 10.- (P)--Ear-

much for the Indians today and they

make him miss the All-Star game at

Starts Today.

You 1 Never Forget It'.

LOS ANGELES, July 10.- (kP)-
Gundar Haegg won the two-mile run
today at 8 minutes, 53.9 seconds, and
lowered the time for the official
world record of 8:56 held by Miklos
Szabo of Hungary and set at Buda-
pest in 1937.
The long-striding Haegg's time was,
about six seconds slower than his
own unofficial world mark, which
he made in his native land last year,
8 minutes, 47.8 seconds.
Gil Dodds, stocky and bespectacled
Boston divinity student who fur-
nished the main competition for the
24-year-old Swede, led for the first
three laps, but Haegg caught him at
the start of the fourth lap and fin-
ished about 125 yards in the van.
Gundar the Wonder seemed to like
the clay track in the big Los Angeles
Memorial Coliseum. He went the
first lap in 65 seconds, was 2:11.1 at
the close of the second; 3:19.2 at the

thiil; 4:27 at the fourth; 5:32.4 at
the fifth; and waved his arm at the
7,500 cheering him as he came breez-
ing down the stretch.
The American record for the two-
mile was set by Don Lash of Indiana
at Princeton, N.J., in 1936. It was 8
minutes, 58.3 seconds.
Haegg's performance today also
lowered the mark for the Los Angeles
track, 9 minutes, 1.8 seconds, made
in 1940 by Walter Mehl.
Another American record was bet-
tered today as Cliff Bourland, Uni-
versity of Southern California, track
captain, ran the 500-yard dash in
56.1 seconds, beating the former time
of M. W. Sheppard, set back in 1910
at Celtic Park, N.Y., at 57.6 seconds.
Cornelius Warmerdam, world rec-
ord holder in the pole vault, was un-
able to make plane connections in
San Francisco, so this event had to
be cancelled.
