A double triumph over the Detroit | Tigers Tuesday boosted the Yankees’ | advantage to 10 1-2 games over the Cleveland Indians and Philadelphia Athletics who were virtually tied for second place although the Indians had a slight edge in percentage. Thanks to some lusty clouting by Tony Lazzeri, Bill Dickey and Joc Sewell, the Yankees staggered through to win the first game. 13-3.) Johnny Allen hung up his third vie- | tory of the Yankees’ current winning streak in the nightcap, 7-3, allow- | ing the Tigers only six hits. | Glenn Myatt's homer with one on in the fifth, enabled Cleveland to beat the Athletics, 3-2, in an excit- ing pitching duel between Mel Hard- er and George Earnshaw. Washington scored four runs in the eighth to beat Chicago, 5 while Walter Stewart turned in a soven-, hit game to pitch the St. Louis Browns to a victory over Boston, 3-2. | The National League program marked by the temporary check of | Brooklyn, who fell before the Pitts- | burgh Pirates, 4-0. The defeat drop- ped Brooklyn to a point one and one- half games behind the second place | Pirates. The Braves drove Lon Warneke from the box in the eighth when they scored all their runs but, the Cubs came back with four in the ninth to win. The Ct. Louis Cardinals beat the Phillies, 3-2.

Y., Aug. 17.—(P)— The difference between a champion and a near champion sometimes is so slight it takes a professional ob- server to locate the dividing line. Take the case of Helen Jacobs, sometimes known as “Queen Helen II,” who apparently is on the verge of winning the women’s national ten- nis crown for the first time after six years of carnest effort. Against almost any woman in the world, except Mrs. Helen Wills Moody, whom she never has quite been able to beat, Miss Jacobs looks to the lay eye like a near perfect tennis player. Those who watched her sub- due such a star as Virginia Rice by ;to break through when the big title was at stake. But it is no mystery to George Agutter, veteran professional at the | West Side Tennis club here, who has known practically every famous play- er of the present century and has coached most of them. “She's really a great player,” he said, referring to the tournament favorite. “She has every stroke ex- cept one almost to perfection, but that one weak point probably has kept her from winning the title long before this. “It is her service. She hits it slight- ly too quick, just when it is at the top of the toss, instead of waiting for it to st.rt falling and getting her weight behind it. Just a matter of inches, but enough to keep her from getting the full advantage of a strong, accurate service.

One of the clubs’ inner council, when questioned about Hornsby’s chances, said “not chance.” But Terry, who to all out- ward appearances was anathemia to the Giants’ front office, was named to succeed the ill McGraw and if Charles Stoneham thought Hornsby could give him a winning team the troubles of 1927 which sent Hornsby There is one thing fairly sure and that is that, Hornsby will be managing a ball club somewhere next year.
