Casey Stengel's Yankees, leading by a half-game begin a nine-game tour of the west with a two-game series in Cleveland tonight. The third place Red Sox, a game and a half out, open an eight-game road trip in Chicago. The second place Tigers | begin a ten-game home stand with the Washington Senators. The Yanks, who forged to ihe front yesterday by _sweeping a doublheader from Wus}nngwn 5-1 and 6-2, face no easy task. So far the Yankees have won 21§ and lost 14 in the west with Cleve- land their best stop and Detroit their poorest. The Yankees have taken seven out of nine in Cleveland ; but only two out of eight in Detroit. However, the Indians, gnocked out of contention over the weekend when they dropped: four straight games to the lowly St. Louis Browns, are out for, blood. Allie Reynolds (13-11) is slated to oppgse the Indians’ Early Wynn (16-7) to night. Wynn has beaten ‘he Yanks three times. The Red Sox, installed by New York odd-makers as 7' or 8'to 5 favorite to win the pennant, are the hottest team in the race at the mo- ment. The Sox have won 23 of their last 26 games but are known as a poor road club. Boston’s record in the west this year is a so-so 19-17 and was built up primarily at the expense of the St. Louis Browns. The Sox have knocked off the Browns eight in & row in St. Louis but elsewhere they have not fared so well. Their record at Chicago is 5-5, at Cleveland 2-7 and at Detroit 4-5. The Tigers have a schedule ad- vantage over the yYanks and Red Sox. They have 17 games remaining at home where they have won 44 and lost 19 for an impressive .693 pace. Lopat and young Ed Ford were the winning pitchers for the Yanks yesterday in the rain-swept double- header at Washington, only activity in either league. Ford pitched a brilliant three-hit- ter in the opener to post his sixth victory without a setback. The young lefty held the Senators hitless over the last five innings. Rookie Jackie Jensen Yanks’' ten-hit attack with three safeties including his first ma_yor league home run.

THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA hits the rest of the way to gain his 16th victory.
