DODGERS AGAIN DEFEAT GIANTS Van Mungo Hurls Brooklyn To Second Straight Victory New York, Apr. 25. —The Brooklyn Dodgers, beaten three in a row ; by the Giants in the first series of ■ the season, won their second straight from Bill Terry's crew in I Flatbush. 8-2. Van Lingle Mungo, making his I fifth appearance in 11 games, held the New Yorkers to eight hits and I fanned nine while his teammates ' were getting 10 safeties off Castleman. Gabler and Coffman. Behind the seven-hit pitching of , Lonnie Warneke. the Chicago Cubs ■ took their second straight victory 'from the Pittsburgh Pirates, 6-1. In winning his second game of j the season, Warneke shut the Pirfates out for eight Innings while his | mates were pounding Cy Blanton I for five runs In the first four ‘ frames. Lonnie fanned five and ] wanted five. Danny MacFayden held the Phil- 1 lies to six hits while striking out seven of them to give the Boston Bees a 4 1 victory and an even split in the two-game series. Tha tremendous clouting and sparkling fielding of the Detroit Tigers was so outstanding in the world champions' 9 to 3 defeat of the St. Louis Browns that Beau Bell's ninth inning home run for the home teams received scant ( notice. Lefty Gomez was wild but effec-1 tive and his mates were in great I form at the plate, so the Yankees I won their second straight game from the Senators. 10-2. A pair of home runs and three costly Cbicago errors in one inning presented the Cleveland Indians with a 6-to-2 victory over the While Sox in their concluding game of the series. Boston fell before the Athletics, 3 to 1. The Mackmen scored all their runs in the opening inning, when they chased Johnny Marcum to cover. Dusty Rhodes, secured from the Sox in the winter deals, kept the losers’ eight hits scattered over eight innings. A home run hit by pinch-hitter Dusty Cooke in the ninth robbed Rhodes of a shut-out triumph. -■o ■ ■ — Rattler* Nest In Garden Austin, Tex. —(U.PJ—Mrs. June C.
