BROWNSAGAIN BEAT SENATORS New York, June 15.—(U.P) Wai ter Johnson's Washington Senators were snowed under again yesterday by the Browns, 17 to 3. On May IS, Just after Bill Ki le fer's partisans had inflicted foul htljuiliatin-g defeats upon the Sen titers, the big train moaned, "St. Lquis Is our Jonah. We can beat th* topnotch clubs, but we ;:rej putty in~th> hands of the lowly Browne. Something must be done; they are spoiling our pennant chance*. Yesterday s defeat, which allowed s Connie Mack's Athletics to move into a second place American league tie with the Senators, marked seven defeats for Washington in eight starts this season against St Louis. In the eight games played, j the Browns have converted 101 hits '.oa>l» runs, while the Sc:.’tors turntd C 5 hit* into 27 runs. In yesterday’s slaughter, the] BrftVns pounded three Washington pitchers for 24 hits, making rallies ol Tour runs in the third inning, tl.tee in the fourth, six in the 7th and three in the eighth Schu te homered for the Browns in the third inning. And his teammate Storti, did likewise in the seventh. Hitchers Weaver. Marberry and Ragland were victims of the St. Louis onslaught, while George, Blaeholder yielded only seven hits i to Washington.

X MARKS the-spot, but XX just marks the finish of Jimmy Foxx’s name. The Mauler from Maryland, a veteran of seven years’ service in the major leagues, at the ripe old age of 24, is playing and hitting in a manner which would indicate the most successful year of his brilliant career. Already this star of the Übieties is hitting the ball at a 4®J clip and he is leading the American circuit in homers by a comfortable margin. Last year Jimmy was walloping the long ones too, but at the end •>f the season he found himself trailing Ruth and Gehrig, of the Yanks, and Averill, of the Indians. Jim uy’s long and frequent hitting is no surprise to the fans on tftb American League circuit. He J.-, been a hitter since the first dav he ever swung a bat. But to «ee him play at third base was a surprise. Connie Mack switched the voung vet to third at the beginnlirg of this season and the

game for the New York Yankees i since coming from Boston's Red | I Sox. as the Yanks nosed out Cleve | i land’s Indians. 7 to t>. Hill Dickey ' and Averil! hit homers. H Boston's Red Sox won their 11th ; ig me in 53 starts by beating Chicago's White Sox. 5 to 4. in 11 in-1 i ulngs. In the National league. Cincin- I nuti and the Philadelphia Phillies i split a double header. The Phillies took tile first, ti to 5, and tile Reds won the nightcap. 5 to 2. Chuck ' Klein homered for the Phillies and ; Tony Lombardi did likewise for (Cincinnati in the opener. Delker | of Phi adelphia hit tor the circuit; in the nightcap. Pittsburgh's doub e header at • New York was washed out. a< was I St. Louis' twin bill at Brooklyn. Chicago at Boston also was postponed by rain. Yesterday's hero: Jimmy Foxx, who contributed his 24th and 25th 1 home runs to the Philadelphia's : A's victory. i o , I THE BIG FIVE By United Press i Babe Ruth tripled and singled i twice, accounting for one run, in 'three times up. < Lou Gehrig singled, accounting . for one run. in five tries. ; Al Simmons singled, accounting for one run. in five trips to the plate.

One man was found to have $16,000 in a bank another $12,000 and a third $9,000.

; change seemed to work wonp ders. Last year, you know, Jimmy was not so hot with the willow, s his batting average being a trifle i under .300. But at the thir-J _ base corner where a man hasn’t r too much to do in the fielding line, Jimmy had a chance to con- ‘ centrate on his hitting. He has s discarded that method of waiting . for “good ones” which he claims was the cause of his slump last sea- > son. Keeping his bat on his shouli der, waiting for the pitchers to toss > one to his liking, didn’t work out r at all. He was fooled so often that his batting average shrunk r discouragingly. Now he is back i i And the result* are obvious. Jimmy r is now back at his old post at first > base, but there’s no telling when Manager Mack will again move : him to the other end of the i diamond. ■ I Another thing which has pleased . i the former farmer boy, is the i fact that he can now truly picture himself in the playing shoes of his boyhood idol.

Shopping

What's so rare as a day in June? Not any other sort of day—for shopping tours! It surely is a pleasure, with vacation days just a step ahead of us. and the stores brimming with vacation supnlies, crammed with* tempting new vacation costumes and extra equipment! Just come along with me through tha»g Decatur shops — keep your eyes open and look at the amazing merchandise values and services! Sincerely. BETTY LOU. Gass’ Ready-io-Wear SLEEVED OR SLEEVELESS? IT'S a problem for the older woman, when summer days come along, to know whether she presents a smarter appearance in short sleeved frocks or a less comfortable but more pleasing one in long or elbow length sleeves. Person-

ally I'm in favor of short sleeves, any style or design. rather than none at all or long ones — whether the arm that extends be-

j ’

nea'h the sleeve Is fat or plain skinny. Long .sleeves are out of place, somehow, in summer. I think. And sleeveless ones, in daytime frocks, are cool, that's true, but generally inappropriate for older women and stoutarmed ladies! Anyway—no matter what you decide to be the most becoming and tasteful fashion for YOU, — do get yourself several of the N B lly # Don frocks in cotton. linefi. voile, organdy, nrints and crepes at the Gass ready-to-wear shop. Blue Creek Dairy I WATCHED THE ROT TLE CAPPER at work at the Blue Creek Dairy here in Decatur —and before that I watched those bottles being sterilized . . and before THAT I saw the milk pasteurized. A'l in all, I never saw such determined cleanliness and efficient sanita-

products. Youngsters are using up lots more energy in p'aying these days than ' they ever did during the longest school day! Give them plenty of reserve pep in the form of dairy products — plenty of milk as often during the day as they want it. Blue Creek deliveries are made before breakfast. so call 467 now and add several quarts of milk to your weekly order.
