DETROIT CAINS ANOTHER GAME Tigers Increase League Lead To Two Games As Yanks Lose New York, July 25—(U.R) —The Detroit Tigers are holding up very well. They lead the American loop by two games. Baseball dopesters figured out before the start of the current invasion of the west by eastern clubs that Detroit couldn't last the month out. Yankee spokesmen announced Washington was the club they feared. It appears they forgot to show these calculations to Mickey Cochrane, foreman of the Tigers. Anyway, Detroit managed to win nine games while losing four since the forecast was made, while Washington has lost ten and won one. The Yankees won seven and lost the same number. Yesterday Detroit increased its clutch on the lead, belting out Boston Red Sox. 6-3, while the Yanks were losing. New York suffered a double loss in St. Louis, losing both the ball game and the services of left fielder Ear! Combs for the season. Combs raced back for Harlan Clift’s fly. crashed headlong into the concrete left field wall, and the hit went for a triple, scoring the winning runs. Combs was carried off the field with a fractured skull, a broken shoulder and blood streaming from his nose and mouth. He will be out for the season. The Browns took the game 4-2. Washington lost to Chicago, 4-1. and dropped into sixth place again. St. Louis moving back to fifth. Les Tietje gave the Senators only six hits. Cleveland hammered Johnny Marcum for 12 hits in four innings beating the Athletics, 10-6. Roy Parmelee continued to blaze the way for the Giants, stopping St. Louis, 5-0, allowing J but four hits. Mel Ott’s twentyfourth home run in the third, driving in his 100th run, sewed up the game The Cubs kept the pace, two games behind New York, beating Brooklyn the second time. 6-3. Sam Leslie’s double gave the Dodgers the lead in the fourth, driving Frey and Taylor hdme, but Charlie Grimm's homer for Chicago, scoring two ahead in the sixth, finished the game. Van Lingle Mungo held the Cubs to six hits but couldn’t win. Flint Rhem hurled Boston to a 4 3 victory over Cincinnati. Aging Sylvester Johnson shut out the Pirates with four hits, the Phillies winning, 9-0. o YESTERDAY’S HEROES Harlan Clift, Browns: Tripled, scoring two. Charlie Grimm, Cubs: Homered with two aboard.

“WOMAN IN RED” QUESTIONED BY CHICAGO COPS (CONTINUED FROM FAtvE ONE) in Fargo, N. D , immediately after the ambush of Dillinger, by agents of the department of justice. Tracing Mrs. Sage's history, police said they learned all they wanted to know of the means by which Dillinger was trapped. She was discovered to be an alien —a Rumanian — whom the government had planned to deport. She formerly operated a resort in Gary, Ind., and was an ’acquaintance of Sergt. Martin Zarkovich of the East Chicago, Ind., police. Zarkovich was credited by Captain Timothy O'Neil of East Chicago with planning the Dillinger ambush single handed. A letter found in her room, notifying her that an appeal from a deportation order had been denied, led Capt. Thomas Duffy to ask: "Would you have betrayed Dillinger into police or government hands if that would have gained consideration for your appeal?” Mrs. Sage refused to answer, he said. She denied that she had any recent contact with Zarkovich or that she ever had talked to federal agents. She even denied that she knew the man with whom she had associated for weeks was Dillinger. He was known to her and to Mrs. Keele, she said, as Jim Lawrence, a bon'j clenk who liked a good time and spent money freely. The part Mrs. Sage and Mrs. Keele played in Dillinger’s easy spending last days was revealed through newspaper reproductions of the photograph in his watch.

The owner of the restaurant | where both women worked, William ' Hertenstein, and another waitress i in the place, Miss Maxine Dunn. ' recognized the picture ae that ofi Mrs. Keele and notified Captain ■ Duffy. Sunday night, Miss Dunn recall-! ed, Mrs. Keele dashed into the j restaurant gasping: “Dillinger was just killed “How do you know’," Miss Dunn asked. “I can’t tell, but you read the papers in a few’ minutes.” she said ; Mrs. Keele answered. The next day, she said, Mrs. Keele telephoned her, asking her to go to her apartment hotel and obtain some of her clothes. She refused. Police visited the apartment and questioned Edward Miller, the hotel manager. Miller said that Monday, the day after Dillinger was killed, two government agents ransacked her room but departed without apparently taking anything. Police found in a closet a scarlet silk dress. They concluded that Mfs. Keele was the "woman in red" | whom a half a dozen witnesses of Dillinger’s death had spotted as his companion. By tracing a telephone number found on a memorandum pad, which led to Mrs. Sage, they learned that 1 they were wrong. It was her ■ dress. At her home, an apartment on North Halsted street just around a corner from the Biograph theater, they were told bv tenants and the manager that Dillinger had roomed for several weeks In Mrs. Sage’s apartment. Mrs. Sage denied that Dillinger had lived there and said she met him only occasionally, and then through Mrs. Keele. While Captain Duffy questioned her oh that point, three federal agents, headed by Sdliinel P. Cowley, first assistant to Melvin Purvis, chief federal investigator here, stormed angrily into the Sheffield police station. Cowley told Mrs. Sage to “shut up” even before he spoke to police. Then he protested angerly against police interference in a government case into which they had not been

j invited. [ Duffy replied that he intended to ! hold Mrs. Sage for further invest!- , gation. Cowley telephoned Police j Commissioner Janies P. Allman. In a few minutes Allman telephoned to Duffy an order to release I Mrs. Sage to the government men. | Cowley took her from the station. Today he refused to reveal where she went. Purvis refused to filscuss her. Twice Pardoned Indianapolis, July 25. —(U.R) —Mrs. Anna Sage, "the woman in red " who gave federal agents the tip that led to John Dillinger’s death, was pardoned twice by former Gov. Harry G. Leslie. Records on file at the state house showed that she was convicted in Lake county court April 16, 1931, and against November 24, 1931 on | charges of keeping a house of ill ! fame. | She was granted fwo pardons by i Leslie Dec. 15, 1932, the records show. ■■■■<) Honorary Degr*.e The doctor 'of philosophy degree is usually conferred after three years of resident study beyond the i bachelor’s degree An essential re quiroment, In addition to the r»m ; pletlon of graduate courses, is the I preparation of a thesis which dem onstrates the ability to produce an original piece of work In the field i ‘1 which the student is specializing.
