BY PHOEBE ATWOOD TAYLOR The Stery So Far: Asey Mayo, Cape Cod detective, is investigating the murder of Marina Lorne, whose hus- band's post office mural has enraged | Quanomet. She was killed by a left| handed blow from the knife of her ster Pam Frye. Interested parties eve. Tim Carr, onee married to Ma- vremm, Roddy Strutt, whose alibying plane crash was deliberate; Peggy Boone, an artist; Jennings, an irate plumber; end persons unknown who! burned down the Frye’s barn, biffed Asey, Tim, and Pam's father, de- stroyed Jack Lorne’s mural sketches one “detaced the mural itself. Missing is 2 $50,200 lump of ambergris belong- ing to Pam. Then Roddy disappears, end the bifer turns out to be Jen- mngs who has just spanked Lorne.

And live!” He got up from the couch and strode around the studio. “No one!” he yelled, and hurled @ glass vase at the fireplace. “No| ane— “Not that,” Tim said. “Don’t throw that, Jack.

I didn’t throw him down the stairs, either. He must have | lost his balance. Do you suppose could fix things up?” “You could try,” Asey said. “What do Tim an’ I get? An’ the troopers?” Jennings sighed. “Can I take it out in plumbing?” “What about my drawings,” Jack Lorne demanded, “that you stole? Oh, don’t stare and pretend you don’t know!

Jennings looked Heys at | him, and then turne “I'm sorry,” he said. “that's about all I can say, I guess. I'm sorry I banged you up, and the rest. But mostly Aaron. He's a good man, ri try to make things up, somehow.” “Been to Roddy’s this evenin’?” Asey asked. “No. I had to thumb a ride to here,” Jennings said. “I found pair of overalls and this sweater out in the hospital shed. I didn’t have my clothes, or the car. I just came over here and tens to Lorne, and then I went to work on ery just to show I hadn't any hard feelings at all.” Timothy was grinning broadly, and Asey couldn't hold back a chuckle. There was so! rather amazing about this big husk of aman, and the simple directness with which he went to his point. “What about Roddy an’ the plane crashin’ into you?” Asey }asked, “an’ his uncle in Washing- ton that got the contraet for Lorne, an’ that got your face in the mural—” “He did not get that contract for me!” Lorne said. “Ssh!

Cincinnati THE FEY WEST CITIZEN ERY. prow IS SANUEL tr AT LONG LAST, YANKS ARE BACK IN FIRST PLACE INDIANS LOST TO SENATORS; DODGERS ENDED PIRATES’ WINNING STREAK: GIANTS DEFEATED BY REDS (Spectat to The Cittzen) NEW YORK, July 14.—After floundering around fer weeks, New York Yankees are back in first place in the American League. Joe DiMaggio put them With two heme runs, one run, he led the Yanks’ attack on St. Louis Browns, who were not so easy to beat yesterday. Both ‘teams collected 14 hits. Final seore was 15 to 12. Washington Senators also won in the ninth inning, edging out Cleveland Indians, 4 to 3, despite the fact Bob Feller held the Nats to four safeties. In a pitehers’ duel, Caster, of Philadelphia Athletics, bested Knott and Rigney. Each team se- cured only six safeties. Final score: Philadelphia, 5; Chieago, 2. Beginning at long heme stand against western clubs, Boston Red Sox won and lost with Detroit Tigers. The Sox took the opener, 7 to 4, and dropped the nightcap, 9 to 5. Pittsburgh Pirates had won 13 straight games and were trying for their 14th on July 13th. But the jinxes were too much. Soo— Brooklyn Dodgers blasted out seven runs in the final frame to take the ball game, 16 to 5, and end the Bucs’ winning streak. Pittsburgh remained in the lead, however, two points ahead of New York Giants, who lost to the galloping Reds. Paul Derringer held the New Yorkers to eight bits and batted in three of the Reds’ runs in de- feating the Giants, 6 to 1. First baseman Johnny Mize poled three home runs in succes- |sion, batting in all St. Louis Car- dinals’ runs, but still the Red- birds lost, 10 to 5, to Boston Bees.

Sid Feder, The Associated Press sports writer, says that New York Yankees and Giants are the two teams to beat in the major leagues it amy other club wants to be on top. He predicts that this year it will again be a subway series, nickle series as it is caHed in New York. But he does not take into consideration Cleveland In- dians and Boston Red Sox, the teams that have given the un- beatable Yanks a run for their money. In the National League, Pittsburgh Pirates and Cinein- nati Reds and Chicago Cubs still have a chanee. It may yet be an! all-western world’s series NATIONALS SUPERIOR! National Leaguers won the All- Star game this year through their strong defen nd the pitching of Vander Meer, Brown and Lee. The hitting of Lom- bardi went a long way to give Terry’s choices victory. Cronin starred in the field for the Amer- ican Leaguers, and at bat Geh- ringer also played his usual game. In the seventh, York fanned with the bases loaded. That was the turning tide that won for the Na- tionals DIZZY MUST PITCH! Dizzy Dean was ordered Mon- day by Owner Wrigley to get in shape and pitch within a week WALLOPER! Lefty Schemer hit six safely in seven times at bat Sunday against the Homestead Growers The half-dozen hits included two triples. He left with Shrader and Graham for Lincoln, Neb., for the national baseball trials. NEW FIELDING RULE National League has made a new fielding rule: “Hereafter, with two men on bases, and one or none out, umpires will call a catch when an outfielder obvious- ly and apparently or intentionally drops a fly ball in order to make a doubie play”. This has been pulled a number of times recent- ly. HOW THEY STAND MAJOR LEAGUES (Baseball) Americen League Club— WL.
