In mid-July, the record showed Buck Newsom had won six of his last seven starts for a mark of 12 victories and seven losses; Jimmy DeShong had won five of his last six games, for an 11-4 mark and Earl Whitehill had won three straight for a 7-4 figure. - eee OIL STAMPEDE New activity in the Cold Bay region, termed by some a small| stampeded for oil claims, was re-| flected in land office records which showed seven claims filed in the Anchorage office during June.

Manager Frankie Frisch is having headaches with Paul Dean’s sore shoulder and Dizzy’s sore head. About the only bright spot in the picture is the | fast pace Joe Medwick 1s setting— both at the plate and in the field Jersey Joe has been pacing Na- tional sluggers with an average around the 360 mark. In the little | matter of driving in runs Medwick leads by a comfortable margin. The sturdy star is having a great year in the outfield . . . just about the best of his flashy carcer. In 80 games he handled 181 putouts and nine assists without an error. Then he was charged with an error when his throw got away from Gelbert in the recent series with the Brook- lyn Dodgers. Half the season is a long time to go without being charged with a single miscue. Fig Leaf His Protection That talkative veteran and the Dizzy Dean of the American League, Buck Newsom of the Wash- ington Senators, can be depended upon to pop with a new idea every now and then. Here's his ' latest stunt: Big Buck credits a fig leaf with keeping him cool as, under a 105- degree heat in Washington July 10, he shut out Detroit with a single hit, 5-0. It's all very simple — the way Newsom explains it in a few thou- sand well-chosen words. Talking like a space-writer, Buck tells how cotton pickers slip fig leaves under their straw hats to keep cool. In South Carolina Newsom picked cot- ton as a youngster, and the fig leaf stunt worked to perfection. Going into the Senators’ dres ing room before the game, Newsom, having torn a leaf off a plant nearby, informed his teammates that it would bring him victory. “Nothing keeps you cool like a fig leaf under your hat,” he announced as the other players jeered. Newsom lost 14 pounds that day —under the hottest sun in which a game has been played during this campaign. Nevertheless, he insists he felt as cool as the proverbial cucumber, thanks to the fig leaf. The Irony Of It! But for an error of omission by First-Baseman Joe Kuhel, Newsom's one-hit game might well have been a no-hitter. Irving Burins, Detroit first-baseman, sent one of New- som’s pitches scooting along the ground between first and second. Second-Baseman Ossie Bluege sprinted after it. So did Kuhel. The ball bounced off Kuhel's glove, past Bluege, for a hit.
