RED SOX TEAM SHOWING POWER Win Eight Os Last Nine Games; Cubs Again Beat Giants New York, June 25 —(UP) —Tom Yawsey’s Boston Red Sox were try ing hard today to shake off their nickname of “Goldbrleke" with a winning spurt that has given them eight victories out of their last nine starts. According to Webstar, a goldbrick -Is “anything purchased as valuable which turns out to be almost or quite valueless." Yaw’.tey has spent between $3,(00,00) and $4,000,006 for a pennant winner since 1933, but bis Rej Sox finishes have been respectively seventh. fourth, fourth and sixth. The heir to the $50,000,006 lumber and mineral fortune of his foster-father took his tea moss the gold standard this year, and began looking for results. The Red Sox began auspiciously winning seven out of the first 10, to lead the league on May 7. Then, they dropped 10 out of the next 13 to seventh place on May 23. Breaking about even on the next 20 games, the beanthrowers have played the best ball in the American league since May 13, losing only one game. That started them on a sixgame winning streak In which they bowled over Chicago four straight, and took a pair from Cleveland before the Indians stopped them in the second game of a double-header last SundayThey've won their last two against the second place Detroit 'ligers. It was the veteran Bob Grove yesterday who shackled the Tigers by scattering nine hits for a 9-0 shutout, manager Joe Cronin, who cost Yawkey $250,004), highest price ever paid for a ball player did his share with a heme run and a triple that drove in four runs. The victory left them only a pair of games behind the Tigers, and five tilts behind tr.e leading New York Yankees who yesterday took a 9-6 decision over the St. Louis Browns. A home run by Selkirk in the seventh and another by Dickey with a mate aboard in the eighth, gave the Yanks their three-run margin. Thornton Lee did a good job of scattering 11 hits to Philadelphia batsmen and the Chicago White Sox handed the Athelet'.ca their 10th straight defeat. 7-2. The Washington Senators won their fifth in a row, slugging three Cleveland pitchers for 14 hits and an 8-2 triumph. In the national league the leading Cubs had to come from behind three times to defeat the New York Giants, 10-5. to protect their one game margin over the St. louis Cardinals who walloped the Brooklyn Dodgers, 13-3. The Boston Bees broke an 11game losing streak oy defeating the Pittsburgh Pirates, 9-6. and the Cincinnati Reds stoppe da late Philadelphia rally to win 6-4. Yesterday’s Hero. Robert .Moses (Lefty) Groves whose masterful pitching in the pinches enabled him to fashion, a shutout despite solved for nine hits, including three two-base blows. —__—o — * Today’s Sport Parade | (By Henry McLemore) ♦ — New York. June 25. —(U.fc) —Last winter the fathers of the United States lawn tennis association formed an organization tor the development of young players. Simultaneously with the tiring of a cannon in New York veteran tennis enthusiasts began the formation of junior Davis cup squads all over the country. This reporter was one of the first to enlist. The sound of the cannon hardly had died away before I was on a nearby court, swinging my racquet and swearing to cross the water and wrest the cup from the hated foreigners. Dozens of Davis cup hopefuls joined me, and we were cheered by reports that in Denver, Baltimore, Kansas City, Los Angeles—in fact, in every city in the country—com-' rades had sprung to arms and were working like beavers with families to support. Today, through the mails, came a letter from the chairman of the eastern junior Davis cup committee, Roland Mallory, outlining his views on the requirements of a Davis-cupper. The letter read: • 1. Skill alone doesn’t make a tennis “first tenner." But couple it with ambition, concentration, good sportsmanship and charact- ; er, and you will go a long way. 2. The path to tennis glory is ; rough like all roads to the top, ! but if you really make up your mind to get there, you will. 3. Don’t lean on alibis. They bend easily. Be known for your I ability to “take it.” 4. Do not be discouraged by your errors. No match has ever ! been played without them. They are a necessary evil. Forget your mistakes immediately. About face i and go right after your man again | i 5. Don't soften your game in

fear of making an error. Have , confidence in it. 6. Don't show by word or act any sign of annoyance. It hurts you and encourages your opponent. 7. Never fail to have due regard for your appearance and con-1 duct on the court. I There were several more "hints'' but 1 knew after reading No. 7 that my chances of representing the Stars and Stripes in Internal ] Inal combat were dimmed. My| appearance and conduct on the' court is awful. My tennis cos-1 tume consists of a pair of old i striped morning trousers, which f have no loops for a belt. This. necessitates suspenders, which means that in the heat of battle, I need only a beard to double for Uncle Sam. My conduct is worse. I always : play for money, and when 1 lose 1 can out-weep any player you, ever watched. That suggestion j that a player never show by word' or act that he is annoyed lets me ] . out. When 1 miss a shot, or my! opponent hits one that is too | much for me to handle, I go to l ’ pieces. 1 throw my racquet and my voice all over the court. 1 dn't like that hint about not l leaning on alibis, either. The only [ . decent pieces of furniture in my' , home are a couple of antique wal . . nut They stand just inside' the living room door, and the first' thing 1 do when 1 reach home in . the late afternoon is t slip off my . shoes, undo my tie, and lean I , against those cool, straight-grained ! alibis. Nothing soothes me so much. Fifteen minutes of leaning against an alibi and I am ready to sit down with the little woman and talk over the chances of hav- » ingthe rent ready on the first. Mister Mallory says alibis bend ! easily. Just because his alibis are: made of poor stuff and won’t stand up. is no reason for him to criti- i I 11 cize mine. The more I think about it, the > 1 more I believe I'll sue mister Mai-; lory. Mister Mallory. what’s your j phone number? My solicitor will 1 call upon you early tomorrow. And j you had better have ready an alibi that won't bend. (Copyright 1937 by UP.) o NOTED BRITISH tary career. He studied at Stonyhurst college and the Royal Military College, Woolwich, Eng.

Convent Life To Be Pictured Here How utterly Independent con vent Sisters are of the outside world Is graphically portrayed in j "Cloistered." the unusual picture starting Sunday at the Madison ! theater. Not only do they do the usual tasks ordinarily performed by women, but they likewise do man's work, such as making their own clothes and shoes. Moreover, they act in the capacity of brick layers and masons. They keep the <onvent In excellent repair inside and out and do their own carpen- i try. They have also built tunnels , from one convent building Io the other, so the Sisters might go from building to building without appearing on the streets. The only tnan ever to enter the piirtals of the Convent of the Good Shepherd is the priest who gives the nuns the sacrament. Robert Alexander and his staff of movie makers were granted special per mission from Vatican authorities before they were allowed to enter the Convent for the sake of making "Cloistered,” which for the first time in history reveals 2.000 year old mysteries. In addition to “Cloistered/’ a comedy. "Don't Tell the Wife." with Guy Kibbee and Una Merkel will also be presented at the Madison. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.- adv. o— Striking Newspaper Men Go Back To Work Pittsburgh, June 25 — (UP) — Pittsburgh's three newspapers resumed publication today after 150 mailing room employee, whoee strike forced suspension of the newspapers since Tuesday, returned to work without gaining the ipay raise they sought.
