YANKS BUTTLE TIGERS TODAY Crucial Series Opens With Doubleheader Today At Detroit New York, June 19 — (D.R) — < Baseball attention today was toeused on Navin Field. Detroit, , where the New York Yankees' hope to beat back the challenge of the Tigers in the American , league pennant race. They .play 4 games in three | days, with a doubleheader today. 1 1 The Yanks hold a 4 4 game lead j over the White Sox, Tigers, and . Indians, virtually tied for second , place. The White Sox have a .005 ■ per eeril advantage because of the | differences in the number of games played. The Yanke have won six of sev-i I en games on their western trin. hiking five of six from the St. Louis Browns and winning one game from the White Sox. M hen they went west the Yanks had only one .300 hitter. Now they ‘ have three, Ben Chapman. Lou Gehrig, and Bill Dickey. Detroit has been coming fast in the last month, and is regarded ' as the team to beat in the Amer- < ican league race. Schoolboy Rowe * has bolstered the pitching staff . 1 by winning hie last two games, allowing only nine hits in heating the Red Sox. 4-1, and the Athletics 13-3. Tommy Bridges, only major league pitcher with ten victories, ■, has won nine consecutive games. With three straight victories over the world champion St. Louis 1 Cardinals, the New York Giants ,' hope to increase their National league lead by halting the rush of the second-place Pittsburgh 1 Pirates. The Pirates enter the crucial . j series with the Giants without , ■ the services of Arky Vaughan. | whose .400 batting average tops both leagues, and Darrell (Cyl Blanton, who has won 8 games, i Vaughan has an injured ankle, and Blanton is in a Philadelphia, hcepital where he is convalescing from an appendcitis attack. Blan-| ton’s condition has improved, however, and he will not have to undergo an operation. The recent spurt of the Chicago Cubs, who took three straight from Brooklyn, may mean that this premising team finally has found itself. The Cubs have won 6of their last 9 games. The | spurt dates from the night of June 9 when Manager Charlie Grimm 1 1 anned hocturnal poker and pinochle games. Since then the Cubs have made 72 runs and 102 hits in 9 games. Rain washed out all games yes-' terday. o —-—— ♦ I Upholds Power Os Congress To Tax Woßhington, June 19 — (UP) — 1 Power of congr.se to impose taxes ! for promotion of public welfare was cited t;day by Henry Warrum, counsel tor the United Mine Workers, as ' a basis for constitutionality es the Guff y cojl bill.

VITOTAMULIS I STAR PITCHER Young Yankee Southpaw Has Won Six (James, Losing Onlv One — Chicago, Juno 19.— <U.R> — The i newest candidate for acclamation I 1 J as the best first yeaj- pitcher in the | r i major leagues this season is Vito, I Tamulis, southpaw wl h the New' 1 York Yankees. Cy Blanton of Pittsburgh and i 1 Johnny Whitehead of the Chicago! White Sox have shared the honor, » heretofore. Tamulis has won six games and | lost one. Blanton has won nine : but dropped four while Whitehead has a record of eight vie.ories and i three defeats. ■ Manager Joe McCarthy of the ‘ Yankees thinks Tamulis is one of the year's prize rookies. I 1 “Hr> has exceptionally good con- e trol.” McCarthy said. "He has a t good curve and his fast ball has plenty of steam behind it. h "He really hasn’; pitched a bad [ t game for us yet.” t I The Yanks acquired Tamulis two j, I years ago and farmed him out to - Newark where lie won 13 games | land lost seven in 1934. He started his professional career shortly after graduating from high school ■in Boston. Before he was obtain'ed by the Yanks he played in the small eastern leagues, getting the necessary experience for the majors. Tamulis is shorter than most ; pitchers but has a powerful physi ique. He weighs 190 pounds. libs success has rounded out al j steady pitching staff for the Yankees, one that has carried the team to the top of the league in I spite of weak hitting. Tamulis, Johnny Allen, bespectacled John Broaca. and the veteran Red Ruffing have had to carry much of the pitching burden for the Yankees this sea Son. because of the difficulties which have I plagued Vernon Gomez, the beet : pitcher in the American league ’ last year. Gomez has won five and lost ■ seVen. He dropped only five games j during the entire 1934 season i while winning 26. "Bad breaks seemed to have beset Gomez this season," McCarthy 'explained. "His arm seems to be ' just as good and he’ll be a win--1 ning pitcher soon.” OUSTED OFFICER CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE Copeland commented. "Look at it any way you want.” the former official replied. "You’ll probably recall that Cone resignI ed.” After other interruptions I Mitchell f7.ally said: "Before I get through. I’ll convince even you that this mess should be cleaned out.” Before the senators turned on Mitchell, the hearing had pro ceeded erratically, with no new facts being brought out. Mitchell mentioned again his complaint against the arrangement under which the government permitted the U. S. lines to lay up the giant liner Leviathan. He said thia arrangement permitted the company to escape payment of $1,720,000 to the government. President Roosevelt at a press | conference meantime said he had I approved the arrangement for j laying up the Leviathan because it was provided that money which the company otherwise would | have lost on its operation be applied to construction of new ships. He eaid in such circum--1 stances, it was silly for the com- ! pany to take a continued loss in I j operating the older vessel. ■ —■ — o AMENDMENT TO CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE to conference with the house, which already has passed the measure in a somewhat different form. Democrats, led by George of Georgia, King of Utah, Byrd of Virginia, and Gore of Aklahoma led a savage attack on the security bill. They declared it uncon- I stitutional and asserted congress has no power to enact the old-age pension system and unemployment insurance scheme in the bill. | Meanwhile administration pressure began breaking the log-jam of new deal measures in committees, though forced to give groqnd Trade In Your Old Tires for New GILLETTE or PHARIS Tirse, J'l 10 to 50 per cent trade-in allowance.

It will be sent to conference with the senate in an attempt to iron out wide differences. In the subcommittee bill, the definitions of "electric utility company” and "gas utility company" are modified to exempt companies engaged in other businesses and selling only small quantities of ; gaa or electricity as a "sideline” from the commission’s control. The house bill defines a "gas utility company" as one engaged in the "retail d'stribution of gas." The house bill carries provisions to prohibit hencefjith registered holding companies to borrow from other utilities or subsidiaries and payment of dividends by holding companies or subsidiaries without commission approval to "safeguard working capital" and prevent payments from capital or unearned surplus. —o —; Convicted Kidnaper Given Death Penalty Muekog e.
