GAME Seventh Annual Confest Played This:Afternoon by All-Star Majors NEW YORK, July 1, — In the Yankee Stadium this afternoon, by jumping on Big Bill Lee of Chicago ¢ for all of their runs, in the fourth and fifth innings, the American League All-Stars defeated the Na- tional League rivals by a score of 3 to 1, in the seventh annual All- | Star game before a crowd of 63,000 fans. Tommy Bridges, of Detroit, who pitched to the middle of the third inning of the game, is credited with the victory today, the fifth scored in the seven annual contests by the Junior circuiters, He and Bob Feller held the Nationals scoreless for the last six innings after their opponents had scored a lone run off Red Ruffing of the Yankees in the third to take a brief lead. A walk, singled by Greenberg and Selkirk, a glaring error by Arky aughn, National league shortstop, provided the Americans with two runs in the fourth inning. DiMag- gio’s looping homer to the left field stands in the fifth inning closed the scoring. Duke of York trophy.

Only recently he was banged up a bit as his newest speedster, Emancipator VIII, overturned at 93 miles an hour. Auerbach grinned and began rebuflding the boat for more record tries. Through his mother's family he had inherited a large interest in a Chicago department store, and he spent some of his time there in the succeeding years. 4 His heart, however, was still in roaring motors, He saw his chance to get behind the wheel them do things when his eye happened on that insignificant little classified ad seven years ago. “That ad probably didn't cost more than 60 cents” he smiled, “but it has cost me thousands of dollars.” He glanced around the office, his eyes caressing the trophies he has won. “It was worth it, though,” he — e Dr. Horace J.
