They chalked up their sixth Tues- day-as Cy Blanton came up with a; five-hitter that put a 3-0 damper on the Bees. But the eastern clubs have proved little softer pickings for Pie Traynor's crew than the western teams before them. Only the Cardinals hold the edge on the Bucs, winning the only game played. TUESDAY’S STARS George Caster, Athletics — Held ‘Tigers to four hits as A’s, with 4-1 victory, remained at top of stand- Cy Blanton, Pirates—Shut out Bees, 3-0, with five hits.

Kiki Cuyler and Ival Goodman, Reds—Former belted four singles in six trips to plate; Goodman clouted home run and double, bat- ted in three runs, in 12-3 rout of Phillies. s Beau Bell, Browns — Collected four for four, including two-bag- ger, as Senators were beaten, 7-5. Slick Castleman and Dick Bar- tell, Giants — Former’s four-hit pitching stopped Cubs, 10-1; Bar- tell hit seventh homer of season. John (Footsie) Marcum, Red Sox—Pitched five-hit ball in five- inning relief job, beating Indians, 11-4, and helping own cause by batting in two runs, Tony Piet and Jack Hayes, White Sox—Each hit single and double, their combined efforts ac- counting for winning margin in 1-2 defeat of Yankees. Athletics Win 6 of 7 The Philadelphia Athletics have had similarly clear sailing on their western joy ride. Perched on top of the American League as a result of their 4-1 trimming of the Tigers and Clevelshd’s fall before Boston by an 11-4 score, Connie Mack’s galloping White Elephants moved into Cleve- land Wednesday with a record of six won in seven starts. It was Rookie George Caster who pinned a four-hit drubbing on the ‘Tigers, making it four straight defeats for Detroit and the first loss in five @ppearances for Roxie Lawson. The Yankees dropped a 7-2 verdict to the White Sox, as Lou Gehrig failed to hit y it 20 Straight fruitless trips to the plate. In the other American League game, Jack Knott did‘a neat relief job for the Browns to top the Sena- tors, 7-5. Pete Appleton, also appear- ing as a relief pitcher, dropped his fourth game. Dodgers Move Up The Dodgers edged into the Na- tional League first division at the expense of the Cubs with a 9-7 defeat of the Cardinals. For the second day in a row Brooklyn played error- Jess ball. Four home runs, including Dick Bartell’s seventh of the season, and Clydell Castleman’s four-hit hurling Proved too much for the Cubs, the Chicagoans bowing to the Giants, 10-1. The Reds went on an- other batting spree, collecting 16 hits, and whipped the Phillies, 12-3.

But I didn’t break down. I told him to hold Pappas and Jaramillo to their agreement. They're not getting any ane expense money out of me.
