With the Yankees idling |jjeving, « in a Washington rain yesterday, the “ Athletics fell upon the helpless Red Sox for two victories, 7to 1 and 8 to 2, increasing their lead over the cham- | pions to 10 full games. It often has| been pointed out that an advantage | for one contender over another in!p, the games won column is of dubious value unless matched by a substan- tial margin in the lost column, but « the fact remains that the Mackmen have reached the magic lead of ten games for the first time since 1914. Teams have been known to fall short of a pennant after topping the fleld by ten contests. Such instances are rare. There are perhaps no more than two such cases in the )\Xs-‘ tory of organized baseball, which | dates back in 1876. Bob Grove registered his 12th vic- tory of the scason in the first half of the Philadelphia double-header, while young Bill Shores, neophyte right hander turned in his first full game of the year in the second. Grove allowed just six hits and Bhores eight. | The Mackmen were rough on Bos- | ton pitching in both engagements. Danny MacFayden and Ed Carroll s were pounded for 13 hits in the | Watwood, « opener, while Ruffing and Bradley | pioi™ were maced for 18 in the nightcap. |i Mule Haas got seven out of nine, | including his 10th homer, and Al| Simmons helped himself to five out | of elght. Bing Miller hit in each game, extending his streak to 26 in a row and setting a new scason's| record. | , The Detroit Tigers conducted | themselves peaccably enough for sixy I innings at Navin field, only to fall| | upon Ed Walsh and the unsuspecting White Sox for 11 runs in the seventh. The Tigers won by 14 to 2. Cleveland and St. Louis divided a double header at Sportsman’s park to complete the American league program. The Indians came from behind to take the opener hy 10 to | 1, and this so infuriated the Browns that they won the second by the shut-out route. 8 to 0. The even di- vision dropped the Browns out of tie with the Yankees for second | place. The big western teams in the N. tional league spiked their guns ye: terday, leaving the Brooklyn Robins free to occupy the center of the sage for their daily torture of the Glants’ The clan McGraw went into the ninth with a lead of 10 to 5 and Larry Benton in the box. but e the Robins soon shelled him for | hroderi'k: enough runs to tie the score.

Y., June 26 (— The lull before the storm of the open golf champion competition has |brought what amounts to an epi- |demic of “barbering” to Winged Foot where the title will be decided the last three days of this week. Baseball players who extend their remarks are known as “barbers” by their fellows, and golf was more conversation than baschall. A As the stars rested on their clubs s | before firing the first shots tomor- row, they talked of their hopes hopgs and fears, mostly fears, the score | necessary to win and the condition {of the course. It was not y to get an agree- ment on a likely winning combina- tion, a good average, perhaps being four 73's, rain or shine, and a few {more if a heavy and steady down- pour should soak the fairways and reduce the roll of the ball, now long on account of the extended dry spell. It Winged Koot is permitted to bark and bite as it can when thoroughly aroused, the winning score may ap- proach 300 for the 72 holes An agreement was casier on the » | question as to whether Winged Foot § |is a real championship lay-out. The ayes had it by a big majority. Charlie Hall. the long driving vet- eran from Birmingham, who has seen many championships come and £o declared it the best test a cham- pionship has boasted. The Dixie 1|slugger hits a long ball and likes to ‘see the long holes stretching ahead. Leo Dicgel, too. was enthusiastic. !“It's a great course.”” said the pro- fessional and Canadian champion. “Certainly the equal of any I have o played in the championship, and we have had some great ones. “No youngster will win this cham- pionship,” added the middle aged o|sage of Agua Caliente. Diegel is olonly 30 years old but quickly ages ?|to three score and ten on the golf o | course. 0| I don't mean to take anything !laway from the youngsters for 1 have the utmost respect for them, but T tell you it will take experience to win the championship on this course.” Bobby Jones spoke up. “I don't agree with you. Leo.” said the At- {lanta lawyer. “T don’t think expe ence will do a bit of good. In my own case I can say that it gets hard- er every year. 1 won when I had mighty little experience and certain- ly it doesn’t grow any easier as it goes along.” The field will be full of up and coming young golfers. 1In practice many of them have been in the low 70's but the men who lay the odds for the financlally venturesome think they” will find themselves unable to duplicate these scores under the relentless pressure of the champion- | ship test. Horton Smith. the {old star of the winter golf ol | master and Roland Hancock. who had the 192§ title in his bag and let it slip away, are mentioned among the possibilities. but for evel of the new golf generation, there are half a,dozen preferences for the - [tried whr horses of the game, |Jones’. Hagens. Diegels. Saraz Iarrells, Von Elms and a haif others. Bobby Jones finished his train- ing yesterday and spent toda ing ont. He did not plan to play and said probably he would not cven visit the course as he had done |all that he could to point his game for the serious fray. Johnny Farrell. the defending champion, did no serious playing. He went out with his elder brother, im. for a final polishing. hitting several balls at each hole as Jim. the tutor, looked on and approved “He's in nod pe.” said Jim l“livu here it wiil be good golf and zo0d Inek.” The normal Foot is 6.60 perfect golf at Winged va with par 72, being represented by 36 strokes on each side.

For days the oarsmen who gained no better than a draw Monday with |the thrashing waters of the Hudson in the wildest of all Poughkeepaie regattas have held the center of the stage. A little later the hooks and jabs of Jones, Farrel, Hagen, Smith land the rest will thrill the folks with the crowning of another na- tional open golf champion at Wing- ed Foot. But in between these two historic and usually sedate attractions, the quarrelsome fisticuff industry hopes to sandwich a spicy, satisfying filler that will steal the show, for a cou- ple of days at least. Madison Square Garden offers Herr Max Schmeling, the Teuton schlager, taking his best shots st Paulino Uzcudun, hitherto punch- proof woodchopper from the Pyr- ences of Spain, in the Yankee Sta- dium Thursday night. The match, a charity affair for the benefit of Mrs. William R. Hearst’s milk fund, is the first several years to bring together over the long route two first ranking heavyweights of definitely rough- house tendencies. The winner will {stand in the direct path of any as- |pirant to the heavyweight crown discarded last year by Gene Tun- ney. Only Jack Sharkey, the Boston sailor, and Jack Dempsey. if he ever Qecides to fight again, will share his position, Most interesting to the fan in the moderate priced seats. however, are the indications of a rough and tum- |ble slugging bee spiced liberalls | with malice aforethought.

This will be one of the feature battles of the season. stanley Works 9, Corbins 5 In a game of hits, hits and more hits in which nearly every player on the two teams registered in the safety column, the Stanley Works outblasted the P. & I'. Corbin team to the tune of 9 to 5. The game was marked by the solid clouts of both teams but the bingles and slams of the winning combination were more solid and more timely. An idea of the force of the blows sent out by the Stanley Works stickers may be gained from the fact that Schreeder, Salak and Greene poked out home runs while five doubles helped the good cause along. Grey had little chance to get go- ing. Immediately upon opening the game, the Stanley Works crew leap- ed on him for three hits and two runs. One of the clouts was a hom- er by Jack Schroeder scoring the second run. Corbins, however, came back just as strong in the last half of the session and they belted out three hits to get two runs and tie the count. - “liven Stephen” wus the cry in the second inning for neither team scored. Stanley V'orks managed to punch one over the pan in the third when Schneider was hit by a pitched | ball, stole second, went to third on |an infleld play and slid home safely |after being caught in a pickle off |third.

Charlow walked and then Jimmy Greene, veteran of many a campaign, caught a fast ene from Grey and whaled it to the road for a circuit clout, driving in two ahead {of him. Grey walked—but to the bench and not to first. Jagloski fed a curve to Schroeder and Jack tapped it to Jasper. Jasper mussed it up.

In the ninth, Abramowicz hit a long one to right field but he was out at home on a beautiful throw frome Patrus, as he tried to make it a homer. Scott developed a slight streak of wildness in the last half and after Wilson had singled and was out on a double play, he walked Preisser and Patrus, but neither could score.

Billy Wolfe was the chief cog in | the winners' attack and also did a great job on the mound. Although pitchers arc expected to strike out cach time they step to the plate, Waolfe proved that he is an exception uand drove in six runs besides mak- ing three himself. During the game he collected four hits out of five trips to the plate and as a side line tanned 11 of the opposing hitters. After the second inning when the winners put over three runs there was no questién concerning the out- come of the game. In this frame the winers were lucky but after that they just drove one run in after another. In the :neantime the losers weren't doing much except trying hard. 1In the fourth, eighth afd ninth inaings they ‘managed (o get a pair of hits and on cach occasion turned them finto a run.
