ALL-STAR GAME EASY VICTORY FOR AMERICAN Yankees Lead American League All-Stars To 8-3 Victory Washington. July 8,-(U.R)—Base-ball's "dream game" is still a haunting nightmare to the National league. As the star dust settled on the fifth major league all-star game today, the National league had a big headache and the American league had a big laugh. Even Hill Terry couldn't think of any alibi this time. The American leaguers have beaten Dizzy Dean, routed king Carl Hubbell, won 4 out of 5 allstar games and are riding higher than ever in their ascendancy with the world championship New York Yankees leading the way. The booming siege guns of the Yankr riddled the National leu gne’s vaunted pitching masters with a barrage of base hits to score.an 8 to 3 triumph yesterday in Griffith stadium before 31,391 persons, including President Roosevelt and other distinguished statesmen and dignitaries. Dean and Hubbell, the National league's two aces, were trumped by the murderous bats of the American leaguers. In previous allstar games the American league hitters have been at the mercy of Dean, the fast ball king, and Hubbell, the screwball master. In 15 innings they made only one run off them. But the sand in the hour-glass ran out on Dean and Hubbell, and the thundering bats of the American leaguers caught up with them. In the immortal words of Vernon (El Goofy) Gomez, eccentric Yankee portsider who emerged from the game with all the pitching laurels: "I guess we've Convinced the invincibles that the American league is pretty good after all.” The way the American leaguers took care of Dean and Hubbell may cause a baseball axiom to be rewritten. “Good pitching will stop good hitting,” may be changed U> "good hitting will murder good pitching." During the hot. sultry, suffocating day. the American league shelled six ational league pitchers for 13 hits, Including a homer, a triple and three doubles. Only Cy Blanton, Pittsburgh's ace, held the American league artillery in complete check and he pitched to only one hitter —fanning Joe Di Maggio. , All the rest. Dean, Hubbell. Mungo, Grissom and Walters, heard the tune of American league base hits whistling past their ears. The National league aleo made 13 hits off Gomez. Bridges and Harder but they squandered them like a drunken sailor. ffltt of the ding-dong, 2 hour and 30 minute battle among more than

I Joe Medwick: who drove out; , four consecutive hits —two doubles and two singles, establishing a new ! record lor uue player ... the all- , star game. on tue other side of the picture ( ; we mid two choice "goats.” . I Dizzy Dean: No. 1 goat who flu- ; ally admitted he made a fatal mis- ■ take. He had the American lea- I ' guers stopped for 2 2 3 Innings. ' One more out and he’d have left | | the game with a record of having I I blanked them for the second straigtit year over a 3-inning route. i But be ciialleiiged the judgment I ' of one of the greatest catchers of i all time, Gabby Hartnett. Hartnett called tor a curve ball < l wnen Di Maggio came to bat in the third inning with the score: bib. Dean shook him off. He wanted to blaze away with his fast one. He did and boom! Di . Maggio rifled out a single. Up came Gehrig and Hartnett again gave the No. 2 sign for a : curve ball. Dizzy shook him oft. With the count 3-2, Dean tried to sneak his fast and Gehrig belted it way over the right field fence, 328 feet away. Dizzy i turned his back in disgust' and, I pounded his fist in his glove. He ; knew he had blundered. After the . game he said: “Yeh, I should’ve took Gabby's . l advice. 1 thought I could get those i fast ones past 'em but they fooled me.” Bill Terry: Goat o. 2. He handpicked the squad, shunning advice from other National league managers, and lost. One of his biggest mistakes was playing Mize at first. Two hits whistled past Mize that Rip Collins, the classiest . fielding first baseman in the NutI ional league, would have cut off. . Terry, like Dean, asked for it and • he has not one to blame' but himself. And don't forget the Yankees' achievements. They dominated I the game like no group of players from any one team ever has. | Briefly here's what they contrib- ' uted: Drove in 7 of 8 runs. Scored 5 of 8 runs. Made 4 of the 5 extra base hits —Gehrig's homer, Holte's triple, and doubles by Gehrig and Kickey. Contributed the winning pitcher, Gomez. Contributed the winning man- , ages, Joe McCarthy. i Made 7of the 13 hits. I To make it complete the Yanks even made the game's only two I errors, a pair of boots by Red , Rolfe. The all-star game is virtually . set for Cincinnati next year. But as far as the National leaguers I are concerned they can do as the song says: / “Let’s call the whole thing off.’’ ; O Armstrong-Biatch To Fight Tonight New York, July B—(UP)—Henry Armstrong of Los Angeles, claimant of the world featherweight championship, was an 8-5 favorite to defeat Al Blatch, Australian lightweight titleholder, in their 10-round fight at Madison Square garden tonight. Weight and reach favor Blatch in his American deput. He will weigh 135 pounds, five or six more than Armstrong, and his 72-lnch reach betters Henry's by five inches. The California negro's supporters laugh off those handicaps and predict a Kayo about the seventh or eighth round.

Bauer took a picture of the overpass bridge leading into the plant—scene of the rioting during the afternoon —and was approached by several men. "You can't take pictures here,”, Beresford said Bauer was told. The photographer was taken to a guard shanty where he was told that lie would have to get per-' mission from Harry Bennett. Ford personnel director, if he wanted to use his camera. “Permission to take pictures was given Bauer over the telephone, but he was warned against taking 'face' pictures,” Beresford said. Still Deadlocked Indianapolis, July 8 — (U.R) — Efforts to settle tue six weeks old strike at the Youngstown Sheet and Tube company in East Chicago remained deadlocked today with no moves in prospect toward reopening the closed plant. Thomas Hutson, state labor commissioner, returned yesterday to the Lake county strike zone to be available in the event negotiations are resumed, but despite ■ Huston’s "hopeful” attitude little immediate chance for the resutnp- j tion of conferences was seen, i
