In the 10th Jim Levey’s j hit drove in the run that gave St. | Louie a 7-6 victory. Babe Ruth, back In the lineup made his 27th homer, and Bill Dickey contributed an-| other. The Senators registered their ninth straight win by crushing Chi I cago 14-1, when Monte Weaver held the Chisox to four hits, while the ! Nats coll-eted I'6 off Miller. Kim-1 sey, Haid and Faber, including Moe Berg’s homer. Cleveland gained on third-place Philadelphia by touncing the Ath-' . a -v .. t-hit nttnek
