DETROIT LOSES LONG STRUGGLE Yankees Split To Gain Another Half-Game On Leading Tigers New “York. Sept. 12 — (U.R) — Clinging feverishly to a four-game lead over the Yankees as they head into the final 15 game stretch the Detroit Tigers are fighting against a crack up in their drive toward the finish of the 1934 flag race. Luck seems to have deserted them. The first real signs of a crackup were against Philadelphia, when the Athletics scored two straight September 7. Two days later Schoolboy Rowe turned in a shaky 5 4 victory over the Red Sox but yesterday he was beaten after the Tigers had fought back to a tie from a two-run deficit. Rowe relieved Crowder in the eighth with Boston leading, but the Tigers gave him an even split with two in the ninth. Boston won in the eleventh. 4-3. The Yanks gained a half game hv splitting with St. Louis. They won the first game. 7-4, staving off a Brownie rally in the last inning when Lefty Gomez relieved Johnny Broaca. The Browns drove Johnny Allen off the hill in the second, winning. 7-3. The Athletics evened the series with Cleveland, 6-4, Roger Cramer's homer in the seventh deciding the issue. Jimmy Dykes bumped the Chicago White Sox home against Washington, singling in the eleventh with the sacks stacked, to win. 3-2. The New York Giants, meanwhile. picked up a half game on St. Louis and lead by four and a half. Bill Terry. Giant boss, pumped Joe Moore and Hughie Critz home in the eighth to give
