HOSE who figured young Dick Lanahan was stepping into company too fast for him when he joined District Repair Shop of the Departmental League after pitching Eastern High to the high school title now are admitting they ‘were Wrong. Lanahan, who did not join the Re- pairmen until after Commerce had clinched the first-half pennant, was glven a chance and pitched so effec- tively that he ranks No. 1 on a vet- eran Repair staff. It was Lanahan who outpitched Leon Riley and Shout Taylor, two former | minor leaguers, to give the Repair Shop nine its first victory over Commerce, and the 1930 cham; have not been beaten in the second-half series since. Lanahan's performance should quiet some of the talk about the superiority of sandlot base ball to high school, and even college. says scholastic and col- legiate followers.

RED at having his challenges to Lewis, Londos, George, Sonnen- berg, Steele, De Glane and Shi- kat passed up, and by the remarks of some of the younger generation of wrestlers to the effect that he “go out and get a reputation,” Wladek Zbyszko, who has won the world heavyweight wrestling cham- plonship s0 many times he can't re- member the number, tonight will at- tempt to take his spite out on the only man who accepted his challenge —Rudy Dusek. x They will meet in a finish bout in the headliner of the mat card at Griffith Stadium.

Nallin, nevertheless, had the clubs wait an hour and & half longer before officially calling it a day. A foolish gesture that because of the ground. It was so drenched when play was stopped, it was obvious it could not be resumed during the afternoon. T did not take the Nationals long to get a lead off Gray. They hopped on him in the second inning for two hits_which, with an error, were good ! for 2 runs. One was out when Bluege slashed a single to center, then Kuhel drove the ball to despest left-center for a_triple to push Ossic_across. When Meiillo failed to hold Schulte’s return Joo also tallied. A thrd Washington run registered in the third inning. Then with one out Harry Rice got his second hit, a triple to about the same spot where Kuhel's | had landed. Manush lofted to Bet- tencourt in rather short right, but the gardener could not apply the brakes quickly enough after a hard run, so Harry easily got home ahead of the throw. In their third turn, however, the Browns with five sucoessive hits dead- locked the game. Levey handcuffed Bluege with a sharp drive and pulled up at second when Gray singled Schulte bounced a hit off Marberry's hands, crowding the stations. Melillo drilled a long single to center, counting Levey and Gray, while Schulte haited at second. Goslin doubled Schulte home, Mellilo to third and Marberry to the showers. Hadley came on to end the rally although with a pass to Ferrell he filled the sacks after Kress fanned. Both Bettencourt and Burns popped out, however.

THE EVENING HUMBLE PHILLIES PRODUGE THRILLS Make Triple Pldy and Klein Puts on a Slugging Act. ! Giants Trim Cards. BY ORLO ROBERTSON, Associated Press Sports Writer. z HE Phillies may not be headed any place in particular in the National League pennant race, but leave it to that bunch of hard-hitting youngsters managed by Burt Shotten to produce some of the greatest thrills of the game. Yesterday they defeated the Chicago Cubs, 11 to 6, which has been done be- fore, but the manner in which they accomplished the feat was new. Chuck Klein, the outfielder who did not sign until the end of the Spring training camp season, blasted his way to the top of the league batting aver- ages with his twenty-first home run, a triple, a double and a single. while three of his teammates—Mallon, Fri- | berg and Bartell—were pulling the first triple play of the National League sea- son Philadelphia’s victory over the Cubs featured the National League program, which included the Giants' 4-to-3 de- feat of the Cards. the conquering of the Reds by Brooklyn, 3 to 1, and the Pirates’ seccnd victory of the series with the Braves by the score of 4 to 1. Home runs played an important part in the Giants’ triumph, which reduced the champions’ margin to two and one- half games. Johnny Vergez's tenth cir- FIGHT WEIGH-N TOBEPUT ON AIR Boswell Sisters to Sing on WMAL—Sorority Dance on WISV. A description of the weighing-in of Max Schmeling and W. L. Stribling for their champlonship bout will be broadcast tonight by WRC and a net- work of other National Broadcasting Co. stations.

The program is made up of popular melodies and a sprinkling of_patriotic _songs. Henry VIII, the much-married King of England, will be the dramatized | guest of honor at the Birthday Party. ‘The musical background will be pro vided by the Rondoliers” Rachel Morton, soprano, and other soloists.

The Boswell Sisters will pay their respects to their native State—Louis- iana—in their weekly broadcast tonight over WMAL and other Columbia Broad- casting System stations. “Louisiana Wadd!le” is the principal selection. TI cuit drive of the season with Travis Jackson on base put the Giants out in front in the fifth, while Lindstrom's four-bagger added another run in the sixth. Pepper Martin kept the Cards in_the battle with a home run. Socks Seibold and Ben Cantwell had slightly the best of Glenn Spencer as far as hits were concerned. but the Pirates bunched their six blows, while Spencer kept the Braves' seven safeties well scattered, holding them scoreless until the ninth. ‘The Reds also outhit the Robins 10 to 8, but Joe Shaute tightened up in the pinches while the Robins held to the advantage given by Babe Herman's home run in the first inning. Once again the St. Louis Browns stepped in and widened the gap between the Athletics and Griffmen in the American League. The Browns de- feated the Griffmen 4 to 3 in a game cut to seven innings by rain, while the world champlons and Lefty Grove were cking out a 4-to-3 decision over the Indiars and Wesley Ferrell. It wes the first time Grove and Fer- rell had opposed each other and the Athletics’ speed ball artist had slightly the better of the argument, althou each team got 11 hits. Included in the 22 hits were eight doubles and Mickey Cochrane's ninth home run. The New York Yankees bunched four hits with an error to score three runs in the third and eventually beat the Tigers, 4 to 2. Art Herring allowed the Yanks only seven hits, but he couldn't keep them scattered, while three double plays helped Herb Pennock. Jack Russell just lasted to let the Bos- ton Red Sox defeat the Chicago White Sox, 5 to 3. Until the ninth Russell had allowed only thres hits, but four safe blows in the last frame were good for two runs and the tying run was on base as he forced McKain, a pinch | hitter, to ground out.
