SCHOOLBOYWINS FIFTEEN IN ROW Detroit Rookie Wins Again; Yanks Lose Another Full Game New York. Aug. 22— (U.R) - De-' troll's sensational crack-up in. which the Tigers were to fold 'ip like the one-hons shay and leave the road clear for the Yankees to | mart It to the American league I < hanipiunship. has again been put : off for a few days, due to a series j of Incidents in Boston. Chief was the appearance of Schoolboy Rowe, who takes his . last name seriously. He won his | 15th game in a row yesterday while the Yankees were suffering i a lapse to the St, Louis Browns. New York now is five and a half . games behind the non-crack-upping : Detroiters.

July, it was freely observed that the moment had come. Detroit was going to flop, and the best of | the Tiger adversaries — Cleveland, i Boston and New York — would i settle the pennant business among them. Detroit promptly took Cleveland, Boston and New York the

"They have the spirit of a bunch Jot sophomores,” commented head I Coach Noble Kizer, Purdue, on the : Junexpecied exuberance of 4he col-[ legians. ’ I j "It looks like they mean bus- • illness,” assistant Coach Jitnmy I Crowley, Fordham, said after the I first scrimmage, in wfiich all-Amer- > j lean smashed all-American with no j I respect for size, reputation or fra-; 1 ternal allegiance. | “They were hitting like players I jin mid-season form in their first!

Many all-star teams have been ! j ruined because of the temperment- I ;al attitude of a few of the morel prominent players who wanted to', run things their way. High-hand-j led tactics won't get far with Kizer, j The squad of 35 has plenty of good I itnen for etery position, and one. .star, more or less, won't be missed. 1 i Any player who seriously doesn't I ; want to play hard football can : i turn in bis suit now is the attitude t Kizer has. assumed. “The all-Americans who had their names headlined from coast to!; coast last fall have jumped right i , into the spirit of the game,’’ said - Kizer. “One for all and all for , ! one —that's the only way we have , a chance against the Bears, and the players so far have certainly sacrificed their personal aggrandizement for the good of the whole team. I have had to shift some star hall I carriers to positions where they : will do little, if any ball-carrying, ' but I haven't heard a squawk out . 1 of a single one.” o 11 Local Fans Attend Fort Wayne Bouts i Several wrestling fans fr.m this 11 I city wen-t to Fort Wayne last even-j1 1 ing to witness the b ufis refereed i j by f rmer champion Jack Dempsey. 11 I The event was held at the base < | ball park and a lane crowd attend-1J ed.

They’re already handing the 1934 American league pennant to Cochrane’s ferocious Bengals, but Mickey isn’t quite sure the title fits yet. The Tigers haven’t been in the world series since 1909. Mickey is famous as baseball's premier saxophone player. He’s a hustler, with the old "college try" spirit.

The hearing was on the petition of Charles (one-armed) Wolfe. Muncie, who with Chapman and ; Dutch Anderson were accused of l murdering Benn Hance. Delaware I county farmer, and his wife on j August 14, 1925. Wolfe, the only one of the three ' indicted who was brought to trial. ! was found guilty and sentepced to life imprisonment on Sept. 19. 1925. Wolfe maintained his innocence j and said that he had nothing to do ■ i with the slayings.
