_TH { E BISMARCK TRIBUNE, MONDAY, MAY 10, 1937 Carl Hubbell Hurls 20th Consecutive League Victory GIANT ACE ‘AGE EQUALS 20 YEAR OLD MARK SET BY MARQUARD Surprising Athletics Win From Tigers in Ninth to Tie for League Lead YANKS IN 2ND DIVISION Dizzy Dean Gives Up Second Run in 46 Innings to Win Fifth Game, 7 to 1 (By the Associated Press) Anything can happen now—prob- ably will. Figure it out for yourself from these dizzy developments of the ‘week-end: The Philadelphia Athletics, 100 to 1 shots, are tied for first place in the American League; the Yankees, world champions, are in the second division. The Cincinnati Reds, who previous- | ly hadn’t been hitting their collective | weight and are in the National League | cellar, stretched their winning streak | to four straight with the heaviest bat- ting and scoring attack in the big- time this season. For the first time in a quarter-cen- tury, there's a pitcher with 20 straight victories—Carl Hubbell. SUNDAY’S STARS Alex Kampouris, Reds—Hit three homers and single, driving in eight runs, in 21-10 win over Phil- lies. Dizzy Dean, Cardinals—Fanned seven and allowed nine hits in 7-1 win over Dodgers. Dick Bartell and Carl Hubbell, Giante—Former hit homer with mate on base to clinch Hubbell’s 4-1 seven-hit victory over Cubs. Willis Hudlin, Indians — Beat Red Sox 3-1 with four-hit pitch- ing. Zeke Bonura and Thornton Lee, White Sox—Former hit homer and drove in both of team’s runs while Lee muffled Yanks with four hits for 2-1 win, Jimmy Deshong, Senators — Pitched four-hit ball to down Browns, 7-1. Jack Rothrock, Athletics — His two-run single in ninth defeated Tigers, 9-8. Dutch Brandt, Pirates—Limited Bees to eight hits, for 6-3 win. Has Incredible Average In winning his first five pitching starts of the season, Dizzy Dean has compiled the incredible earned run average of 0.40 per nine-inning game. Willis Hudlin, the Cleveland right hander who didn’t win a game in 1936, ‘until the next to the last day of the season, pitched a four-hit victory his first time out this year. Most astonishing in these daffy do- Ings are Connie Mack’s once-apathe- tic Athletics, The “Old Man's” young fighters won the fourth victory in five starts on their western swing Sunday by coming from behind with a nine- run surge in the last three frames to top the Tigers, 9-8. This streak Kicked them right upstairs to a first- Place tie with the Indians, who cashed in on Hudlin’s hurling for their fourth straight victory, a 3-1 triumph over the Boston Red Sox. Get 24 Bingles Until last week, the Reds in general and Alex Kampouris in particular, had been hitting just a shade over the sive of their collar bands. Sunday, however, they completed a week of ef- fort by teeing off against the Phillies for 24 hits and a 21-10 win. And lead- ing the perade was Kampouris with Sires homers and eight runs batted Hubbell equalled the 25-year old performance of Rube Marquard by pitching the Giants to a 4-1 win over the Cubs for his fourth victory of the year and 20th straight in league com- petition—a streak that dates back to Jast July 17. His record so far this season, however, falls short of Dean's. Dissy the great, fanned seven in stopping the Brooklyn Dodgers 7-1 for his fifth straight victory this year, giving the Dodgers only the second Tun earned off him in 46 innings of pitching. Spurgeon Chandler made his big- league starting debut for the Yankees, but although he pitched five-hit ball; he and the champions lost to the Chi- cago White Sox 2-1 as Zeke Bonura hit s homer to pay off on Thornton Lee's four-hit pitching. Pitteburgh’s Pirates maintained the National League pace by defeating the .

Argument Over Traveling Ex- penses Settled When Man- ager Intercedes As if shadow boxing over choice of @ referee wasn’t curtain-raiser enough for this Friday's Independent Box- ing club show, Fred Thimmesch, prq- moter, and Deno Pappas, manager of Jolting Joe Jaramillo of Denver, clashed over the week-end over trav: eling expenses for Dick Demaray’s opponent, Thimmesch hadn’t looked for any more trouble from Jaramillo’s end settled, but apparently Pappas hadn't when he signed a contract for his Rocky Mountain champion to meet Demaray. Sunday came a telegram from Pappas demanding $60 more for him and his clouter to reach Bismarck and return to Denver on. ‘ “What's in a contract?” muttered Thimmesch as he scratched his head. “They agreed to come on so much. Let's hold them to it.” About that time Isham Hall, Dem- aray’s manager, heard about the new- est outburst of trouble. “A contract's a contract, Fred,” said Hall, “but I think in this case we had better waive any protest and send Pappas the extra 60 bucks. If Dick licks Jaramillo we'll get a fight in Denver and we want to be treated right also.” So $60 was wired to Pappas wi immediately replied with a thane you” wire and a statement that he or Thursday for final workouts. a letter to Thimmesch writes that “Joe Jaramillo is in the best condi- tion of his life, and he should give your fight fans a great go for the entire 10-rounder.

Uninterestifg Race As far as the running of the Derby, it was one of the most uninteresting War Admiral had very little opposition in the wagering as the cosmopolitan crowd backed him down to 8 to 5. The race itself was the Riddle colt’s all the way. War Admiral turned in the second fastest time of 2:031-5 in Derby his- tory. Only Twenty Grand’s record mark of 2:01 4-5 tops it.

This, of course, is the reason why the ad- vice is repeated so often that a de- clarer, in making his plan of play, should leave the way open for an al- ternative line of play if the first line In today’s hand, which is not diffi- cult, it was because the declarer made the correct plan of play, and reserved an alternative in case the first line failed, that the contract was made.
