PRO CHAMPIONS I ARE DEFEATED i BY ALL-STARS I All-Stars Score In First Quarter To Beat Green Bay Chicago, Sept. 2. <U.P.> Slingin’, Sammy Baugh, deadly forward passer from Texas Christian, shook the professional football world today by firing a shot that helped the college all-stars whip the proud Packers of Green Bay. Wis.. 6 to 0. While 84.560 fans Toured his name through the oppressive heat over Soldier Field. Baugh spotted a receiver with all the assurance of a mountaineer hunter in the first period last night and rifled a • touchdown pass good for 47 yards and the first all star victory in four years. It was a perfect pass, smacking the outstretched arms of Louisiana State's Gaynell Tinsley in plenty of time to permit him to whirl away from Hank Bruder of the Packers and map his course 30 yards across the field and into the end zone. Not a Packer touched him. Big Sam Francis of Nebraska j missed the try for extra point, but i under Baughs shrewd generalship.! the all-stars nursed the lead carefully and were tn danger only during a brief flurry in the second period. That second period offensive was the only chance offered Green Bay's famous Arnie Herber-to-Don Hutson forward passing combination and the Packers managed to claw their way to the two-yard line before Johnny Drake of Pur-; due smeared Hutson in his tracks after taking a pass from Herber. The notable advancement in the Packer drive was a 41-yard pass, Herber to Hutson, which placed the ball on the all-star 25. Bob Monnett picked up nine yards around right end. Herber made; seven yards to the two-yard line, i There, Drake cut down Hutson the instant he gathered in a short

puss from Herber. and the all-stars I took the ball on downs. The final periods see-sawed with i little advantage. Green Bay lost I Herber through an injury midway I in the third period and had no ’ punch left for the rally. For the first time since the start of the four-year series, there was no talk of comparing professional and intercollegiate football on the outcome of the game. Twenty-two . members of the all star squad ac- ' tually were under contract to play pro football and almost as many I others were sought by league , teams. The collegians scored the touchdown, but Green Bay piletf up a statistical advantage; 17 first downs to eight for the all stars. 343 yards gained to 185, 14 passes completed to seven for the all stars, and 202 yards gained by passing compared to 115 for the 1 collegians. o I STANDINGS ; NATIONAL LEAGUE W.

GIANTS REGAIN LEAD AS CUBS ARE DEFEATED 1 1 Defeat Cardinals As Cubs Lose To Brooklyn On Errors I New York, Sept. 2—(UP) —King Carl Hubbell was entrusted today with the Job of keeping the NewYork Giants on t.«> of the National League. The last two times the Giants went to the front they stayed there only 24 hours each time. Bill Terry free to devote his entire lime to directing the Giants' campaign now that tie has wangled a new fiveyear contract at $46,960 per year out of President Horace Stoneham, is hanking -,ri his meal-ticket Hubbell. On his last two starts Hubbell i was hammered out of the box by Hie Cubs and Pirates, although he ■ wasn't charged with a defeat either tim . Hubbell's record is 17 won and » lost. if Hubbell stops the Cardinals and flashes any of his [old form the Giants will be wellequipped with pitching strength for the September drive. Opposing Hubbell will be Si Johnson. Hal Schumacher encouraged NewYork's pitching outlook when he hurled the Giants to a 7-3 victory i over the Cardinals yesterday. He ' allowed nine hits. Lon Warneke, I Cards' starter, had to leave the game in the fourth inning with New York leading. 3-2, when he wan hit i on the left leg by a line drive from J'mmy Ripple's bat. Mike Ryba re - placed him and the second ball he [ threw Mel Ott was whammed , against the upper deck for homer No. 29, accounting for three runs. The Cubs, after one day in first place, booted themselves right back into the runner-up position, .002 percentage points behind the Giant:: With the scored deadlocked, 4-4, and two out in the eighth, Lonnie Frey, subbing at third, ali . wed Gil Brack's easy roller to get through his legs. One run scored. A scratch . hit scored another run. Max But- ' < her, who pitched the last 1 2-3 inn- ’ ings. was the winning pitcher, and Curt Davis the loser. Pittsburgh dropped its seventh . straight, losing to the Phillies, 5-3 ■ Earl Grace’s homer with a man on I in the eighth won the game. Cincinnati beat the Bees, 5-1, and then d- oped the second game of a doub- l leheader, 4-1. Paul Derringer held the Bees to six hits in the opener while Lou Fette hung up his 15th victory with an eight hit performance in the nightcap. Fette sing'ed with the bases loaded and the score tied to drive in two runs. All three American League leaders lost. Cleveland stopped the Yankees. 4-2, behind Dennis Gale- I house's seven-hit pitching. Julius Seller’s homer with e.ne on in the fourth gave the Indians a lead they > never relinquished. Detroit fell before Washington, ' 8-2. Wes Ferrell let the Tigers down with five hits in scoring his 13tn victory. The senators gathered 15 hits off McLaughlin. Wade and Russell. Kuhel, Myer and Sington each got three singles to pace the Senator attack. The Boston Red Sox trimmed the Chicago White Sox, 2 0. in a six inn- ' ing game halted by rain. Luke App- 1 ling's error on a slow i oiler accounted for Boston’s winning run in the third. Lefty Grove allowed five hits and Bill Deitrich four. The Philadelphia Athletics climbed ..lit of the cellar with a 5-2 victory over the St. Louis Browns—new eighth plac?- tenants. Almon Williams kept the Browns’ 10 hits scattered and was the winning pitcher. Wally Moses hit a homer with iwo mates aboard in the seventh to clinch the Philadelphia victory. Yesterday’s hero: Mel Ott, Giants third baseman whose 29th homer gave him the National League lead and clinched the Giants' victory over the Cardinals. —o —

♦ ♦ Today’s Sport Parade (By Henry McLemore) New York. Sept. 2. —<U.R' —When Arthur Donovan dropped by Mike Jacobs' salon yesterday to pick up his $250 check for refereeing the Joe I. ,'jjs-Tommy Farr fight I led him into a neutral corner and asked him about that score card he | turned in. Donovan's tally sheet, you know, gave Louis 13 rounds, with one to Farr and one even. His scoring brought down much criticism on his head and I wanted to find out if he thought any of its was Justified. He didn't. He wasn’t see about it —just amazed that anyone could ' have seen it any different. “Louis won in a breeze, in a I walk. He never took a deep breath from start to finish.” Don- ' ovan said. “Farr won just one | round in that fight—the first one —and I'll stake my reputation as ' a referee on it. I couldn't believe j my ears when I heard those boos. ! because it was so obvious from where I was that Joe never had a i second's trouble defending his ! title." But Donovan had an explanation for the crowd's reaction, and to me it makes sense —much sense. “I guess the customers had read too much about how Farr was a bum and a sucker and a pushover.” Donovan opined. “They expected to see him belted out of there in thirty seconds, and when he still was in there, round after round, they got so excited, and so amazed by his gameness, that they ' couldn't see any other punches but 1 his. The same sort of thing happened the night Bob Pastor stayed ten rounds. Louis won that fight by a mile, yet at the end of the last round exerybody forgot about him in yelling for Bob. “Why, in that fight Monday I night I heard the crowd yell lots of times for punches that didn't 1 even land on any part of Louis. 1 And the crowd was always screaming and shouting for punches that Joe caught on his elbows or gloves or shoulders. I've been around ; boxing a long time, as a fighter I and then as a referee, and if Louis didn’t hit Farr 15 times to 1 then I'm crazy. Yet 1 hear that the man at the. radio had Farr winning. That's ridiculous. Farr never had a chance of licking Louis. You know all the Welshman showed me? I'll tell you—the toughest jaw and the garnest spirit I ever saw in any fighter. : You know those left Jabs Farr took for 15 full rounds? Well, they

' were the same ones that ruined Baer in two heats. That’s how tough that Tommy is." Did he think Louis made a poor' fight? “He didn't make one of his best ones, but it was a long ways from a lousy one. After all. he defended his title, and that's what he went out there to do. And it wasn’t a dumb fight he fought, either. O read the day after the fight that Joe was crazy for not throwing nwre left hooks. I think I know why he didn't throw many Remember that fight he had with Schmeling? Well, it was left hook that ruined him that night. I was in there, and for the first three , rounds he didn't do anything but jab the German. Jab-jab-jab. And he had him cut up pretty bad. Then he started hooking—when he didn't need to —and when he threw one wide Max let him have a right that knocked him down and out of his senses. That must have taught Joe something, and you can' hardly blame a guy for being smart.” Donovan thinks that Louis was telling the absolute truth when he said Farr never hurt him at any time, and that he never was tired. “I never saw Farr land a damaging punch." Arthur said, “and that Louis was in such great shape he could have fought twenty-thirty-forty—or fifty rounds.” (Copyright 1937 by UP.) o HOME RUNS Di Maggio, Yankees 38 Foxx, Red Sox 33 Gehrig, Yankees 31 Greenberg, Tigers 30 York, Tigers 30 Leagues To Entertain Interriver Meeting The Decatur junior and senior Walther leagues will be hosts to approximately 300 delegates from nine other societies in the district, when the interriver zone convention of Walther leagues is held here October 17.

BAR CHILDREN ■II •vnwnmim wanw (WJjL of the country. All night long the staff at I Steele Memorial hospital had j stood vigil over the two girls. i neither of whom could live long outside a respirator. The need for another machine was urgent, because if both children began ‘ sinking at the same time, doctors would have to choose between their lives. At 5:05 a. m. CST.. an airplane landed at municipal airport with a small wooden respirator from Toronto. A fire department truck carried the lung to, the hospital. In the hospital were Shirley I Krause, 2H. and Maybelle Ontcnlt. ( 15. both laboring for breath. They suffered . from infantile paralyoi- > Shirley had priority rights on' the hospital's respirator but Maybelle had depended more on it. I Maybelle could live outside th.' device only 20 minutes at a time, after an hour inside When the second respirator was carried in, Shirley was lying on a cot, breathing more strongly tha i for several days, and Maybelle was resting peacefully in the “iron lung " Dr. Theodore L. Williams, deputy health commissioner, watched over the girls continually. "It was a long, long night." lie said. “Once before, several days ago we allowed Shirley a few hours out of the respirator only I to rush her back, barely in time to save her life. We didn't know ■ during last night when we might have to repeat the procedure.” Q — SINKING OF BRITISH (CONTINUEI FROM PACK ONEi its troops had broken up two violent rebel attacks near Belchlte despite close cooperation between ’ the nationalists' land and air I forces.
