“WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2 SURGE LEAVES NATS NIPPING BENGAL HEELS Bob Newsom Tries Iron Man Stunt Against Old Mates-Cards Gain (By The Associated Press) Washington continues to amaze the fans with a complete reversal of last year’s form. Buddy Lewis bashed a single, double and triple in yesterday's 11-8 slugfest over Cleveland as the Senators pulled to within one full game of the front-running Tigers. Bobo Newsom did his best to help out Washington, essaying the iton man stunt against his ol Detroit mates, but was rapped out of the box in both ends of the flouble bill. Joe Berry came in to sdave the opener for Philadelphia, -6, in 11 innings; but he couldn’t repeat when called again in the ninth of the second tilt after New- som faded with the score tied an two men on base. Rudy York shot a single through short to break it up, 7 to 6. The New York Yankees con- tinued to show signs of life after a miserable western jaunt, beating Chicago’s White Sox twice, with the help of Charley Keller's first homer, St. Louis missed a chance to gain ground on the leaders by splitting two ewith the Boston Red Sox. Randy Heflin beat them, 4-3, in a finale cut to five innings by rain. The St. Louis Cardinals con- tinued to chew .away at Chicago’s shrinking National lead. Charley (The Red) Barrett trimmed his former Boston mates for the second time, in earning his eighteenth triumph for the Cardinals, despite Tommy Holmes twenty- fifth homer. The Cubs had to be ¢ t with an even break in their {inal series at the Polo Grounds when the New York Giants rallied for two in the ninth to top Claude Passeau, 4-3, on a sqqueeze play. Breoklyn dropped to within a half game of the fourth-place Giants, bowing to Pittsburgh, 12-1, and the Phillies ran their longest win streak of the season to five in a night game conquest of Cin- cinnati, TUESDAY GAMES (American League) New York, 3-6; Chicago, 0-2.

Grimm can easily remem- ber the 1935 struggle, when his Cubs won 21 straight games in September to beat out the nals.
