Chicago, Aug. 27.—(#)—Unless total collapse overtakes them, the Min- neapolis Millers are just about a clinch to bring home an American Association title for the first time since 1915, and the first since Mike Kelley was brought over from St. Paul for that specific purpose. Burke and Bob MacDonald. Kelley tried and tried and often came close, but championships, of which so many fell to him while at St. Paul, eluded him.

Dean and Jack Knott had en- gaged in a strikeout duel for eight innings, the former getting eight and Knott 10. Knott achieved the unique distinc- tion of fanning four men in the fifth. After Cullop and Anderson had struck out, Jack Riggs took a swing at a wild pitch for a third strike. The ball got away from Russ Young and Riggs reached first base. Knott then struck out Healey. Gene Trow held Indianapolis to five hits, three of them in the first inning, as St. Paul broke a six-game losing streak by defeating Indiana- polis, 7 to 3.

The Dodgers, their pennant hopes temporarily dimmed, now must turn their attention to holding on to sec- ond place.
