Dizzy pitched a five-hitter, but he was hard pressed, for Johnny Nig- geling also hurled five-hit ball. In fact, the Tigers took an extra inning to clinch their seventh straight vic- tory, after having trailed the Na- tionals for five innings. The Senators, who have lost 16 of their last 23 games, took a two-run lead in the opening inning. Detroit got a run in the third, but did not tie' it up until the seventh when Dick Wakefield hoisted out a circuit clout. Wakefield also scored the winning run in the tenth. He opened with a walk and Pinky. Higgins singled to left, sending Wakefield to third. Richards walked, filling the bases. Rudy York, who has been out of the lineup with an injury, batted for Joe' Hoover, and he lined to Joe Powell, Wakefield scoring after the catch to give Detroit 13 wins in 15 games with Washington. Trout scored the Tigers' first run in the third. He had walked. Cra- mer's double off the right field score board sent the Tiger hurler to third. Then Mayo grounded out to Kuhel, Trout scoring on the play. The Tigers will seek their third straight victory over the Nationals tomorrow night with Prank (Stub) Overmire on the mound.

State St. Phone 6615 By JACK HAND Associated Press Correspondent NEW YORK, Aug. 10-St. Louis 3l, but eliminated the New York Yankees from the American league race today as Denny Galehouse shut out the Yanks with six singles. Galehouse hung up his fifth suc- cessive win after losing three' starts in early season when he was a Sun- day tosser on part time from a de- fense plant. Only one Yankee, John- ny Lindell in the seventh reached second base as the champs suffered their eighth whitewash and dropped 9112 games behind the flying Brown- ies. Al Zarilla, who won yesterday's series opener with a homer, drove in the first score for the league leaders with a fourth inning single to center after Gene Moore bounced a double into the left field stands. It was Galehouse's first shutout1 and the 12th for the St. Louis staff. Three of them against the New York Yanks.

The triple play came in the fourth inning after the Red Sox filled the bases on successive singles by Pete Fox, Bob Johnson and Bobby Doerr. Ralph Hodgin made a beautiful glove-hand catch of Jim Tabor's line drive just inside third, then stepped' on the base to put out Fox and threw to Ed Carnett at first to catch Doerr. Lou Finney left the game in the first inning after injuring his left hand while tagging Wally Moses. Hal Trosky remained out of the Chicago lineup because of a wrenched knee. Chicago's lone tally was in the sixth with two out when Carnett came in on Thurman Tucker's triple.

Pirates Make It Two Straight Over Giaiits PITTSBURGH, Aug. 10-U)--The Pittsburgh Pirates made it two straight over the New York Giants today, this time by a 10 to 4 score, but Rip Sewell, their ace pitcher, wasn't around to claim the victory. Sewell, winner of only two of pre- vious eight starts, hurled the first four and two-thirds' inning but then his lame arm weakened and Preach- er Roe took over. The winners counted six times on five hits and two walks in the third and coasted the rest of the way. Frank Coleman homered in the fifth with the bases empty.j New York ....020 200 000- 4 9 0; Pittsburgh ... .016 021 00x-10 14 0 Brewer, Hanson, Pyle, Adams & Lombardi; Sewell, Roe & Camelli.- Tribe whips A's 54,; Heving Saves Game PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 10-(')- The Cleveland Indians made it two in a row over the Philadelphia Ath- letics, 5 to 4, before 4,997 fans here today.

The game marked Hughson's 18th win of the season and his fifth against Chicago in the 1944 race. Hughson also banged out two singles in his valedictory salute for a loyal home crowd gathering of 11.215 fans. Hughson in chalking up his 18th win, became the second hurler in one night to accomplish this feat. Hal Newhouser, the Tiger ace, shares this same honor along with Hughson. After the game, Hughson expressed satis- I I !t {} iI( (t 3 CUILENBINE OUT ATTEMPTING STEAL...

Emmett O'Neil, the Red Sox rookie, roomed with Tex on the last Western jaunt and reported it was "just like living with a phonograph." However, it was notice- able that O'Neil pitched better ball after association with Hughson. "I honestly believe," said O'Neil one day, "that he'd get up at mid- night and pitch if he thought there was a game going on." Hughson's treasure chest of memories are indeed numerous, but there are a few experiences which stand out most prominently in his mind. There was that time in Louisville in 1941 when manager Bill Burwell put him into the game in the ninth to hold a one run lead. Minneapolis had the bases loaded with two out and slugger Phil Weintraub, now playing with the Giants, was at bat. Burwell told Hughson not to work on Wein- traub but to concentrate only on throwing the ball past him. Hughson timidly replied, "I will if my knees stop knocking together." There was another game. in 1941, Hughson's first year with the Red Sox, when there were men on first and second for the opposition and catcher Peacock hitting with Hughson on deck. Manager Joe Cronin told Tex, "If you could hit, I'd have this guy bunt and let you swing, but I guess I'd better let Peacock take a full swing." Peacock walked to fill the bases, and then Hughson drove in two runs with a :timel.single. "I guess I told Cronin when I got to first," grinned Hughson. A very short time ago, Hughson was gunning for number 17, but the Tribe managed to pummel him for eleven hits and plenty of runs. After the game, he admitted he had gone to a blood bank the day before and figured that it was the heat which caused his downfall. At the time of his departure, Hughson leads the American League, if not the majors, with 112 strikeouts. Hughson is one of those pitchers who appears on the horizon once in a lifetime . . . always ready and willing. i AMERICAN LEAGUE NATIONAL LEAGUE W St. Louis .......64 Boston .........57 DETROIT ......54 New York .......53 Cleveland .......53 Chicago ........50 Philadelphia . .. .47 Washington.....44 YESTERDAY'S L 42 48 50 50 55 55 61 60 Pet. .604 .540 .515 .515 .491 .476 .435 .423 GB 6 / 9 91/2 12 13 18 191!

Pro Football League Battles To Get Contracts ofTop Talent 4' i > > , a .__..+1 . - .. ( f " 5 s , By WHITNEY MARTIN Associated Press Correspondent NEW YORK, Aug. 9-Pro foot- ball seems to be suffering from growing pains, and it is to be hoped it comes through them as happily as did the major baseball leagues. The current ache involves the question of whether or not Dean McAdams, a halfback, signed a con- tract with the Seattle club of the new West Coast American League while still the property of the Wash- ington Redskins of the ' National League. Regardless of the merits or de- meritst of this case, it gives a clue to what might happen through too sudden expansion and a cut-throat, ethics-be-darned attitude toward the signing of athletes. The National League, firmly estab- lished and kith a corner on the name players currently available, naturally would resent any tampering with its signed and sealed performers, and its rules provide stern punishment for any guilty parties. This puts the new coast organiza- tion in a rather tough spot, since, unless it can make contact with re- turned service men who have no pro league affiliations before the Na- tional League clubs get around to it, and can offer proper financial in- ducements, it must be content withy the scrapings of the bin. However, the west coast group, pos- sibly resenting the self-appointed authority of the older circuit, might feel it is able to stand alone, defying the National League. In such a case it would feel no qualms about ap- proaching players under contract to National League teams and offering them more juicy terms. And if the players were convinced the new league was sound and would provide steady employment for the duration of their playing careers they might shift their loyalty. It might be an outlaw league so far as the National League was concerned, but, the money would be inlaw, you might say. The American baseball league was founded in much the same manner. The American League prospered and forced the recognition of the National. Whether or not the west coast football league could use the same methods and force recognition is problematical. Aside from the player angle, there is no conflict since at least for the present there is no territorial infringement.
