Barring the vague possibility of @ couple of broken legs or a club-wide sit down strike, there wasn’t a dark cloud within shouting distance. On top of the return of their hit- ting power and the unusual skill of their supposedly question-mark pitch- ing staff, the world champions were as full of power as a Christmas punch bowl over the overnight signing of Charley the Red Ruffing, their No. 1 hurler of 1936. Same As Last Year Last year, the Yanks showed signs of lagging now and then, when they were tangling with tail-enders. But each time they came up against threatening rivals, they went to work like a gang of longshoremen. They. haven't changed a bit. They started their first western invasion three days ago in second place, a game back of the Tigers. Given the nut they love best to crack, they walloped the Detroits twice in.a row, turning in a 7-3 win Thursday, with George Selkirk socking two homers and “Monte Pearson posting’ an eight- hit, eight-strikeout performance. ‘That dropped the Tigers into second gue Lead Landscaping Is Prominent: Part of Improvements in State Golf Layouts 14 SCHOOL MARBLE CHAMPS nerd COMPETE IN CITY TOURNEY | Signs on Yankee a homer-hammering mood were the Cubs, who belted the Phillies 17-4, to stretch their streak to five straight. Outside of the Yanks-Tigers to- do, the only other American League game was in Chicago, where the Ath- letics staged a six-run rally in the eighth to top the White Sox 7-6. The Red Sox-St. Louis Browns and Wash- ington-Cleveland Indians tilts were rained out. NATIONAL LEAGUE Reds Beat Giants Cincinnati .. -001 032 002—8 22 0 New York 200 100 200—5 13 0 R.

WEDNESDAY’S STARS J. Dean, Cardinals—Fanned 11 and place and pulled the swat squad to the top by a full game. Dean In Form Although pitchers generally came & dime-a-dozen on Thursday's big- league program, the great Dizzy Dean and Cy Blanton, along with Pearson, were notable exceptions. Dizzy had little trouble with the Bees, and aided by five Gashouse Gang homers, turned in his fourth straight victory, @ 13-1 win over the Boston Bees. Blanton, top flinger of the Pitts- burgh Pirates’ crack staff, fanned eight and allowed but five hits in pitching the Bucs to a 5-1 win over the Brooklyn Dodgers, their fourth straight, to keep the Pittsburghers a game and a half in front in the Na- tional League. Kampouris Leads Attack ‘The New York Giants’ pitching, in the person of Fat Freddy. Fitzgerald and his knuckleball, was given a thorough going-over by Cincinnati’s aroused Reds. With Alex Kampouris clubbing two of four Red homers, the Roughhouse Reds won their second victory of the season, 8-5, over the National League champions. Also in allowed six hits in 13-1 win over Bees. Arky Vaughan, Pirates—His triple and three singles paced Bucs to 5-1 win over Dodgers. George Selkirk, Yankees—Hit two homers, double and single and drove in four runs to whip Tigers, 7-3. Alex Kampouris, Reds — His two homers led way to 8-5 victory over Giants. 4 Frank Demaree, Cubs — Drove in six runs with homer with bases loaded and single in 17-4 win over Phillies. Chubby Dean and Bill Cissell, Ath- letics—Each drove in two runs to beat White Sox 7-6.
