Yankees Move i - • -r. Into Tie For League Lead New York, Aug. 18-*(UP)— y Stubby Overmire’s soft-stuff pitching put the Yankees back into a first place-tie and softened the J heart of manager Casey Stengel to* day at a time when he was about — to admit he was soft in the head for ever gambling on the little lefty. Overmire -had been nothing but disappointment since coming to the Yankees from the Browns just before the trading deadline in June, but he was all heart and a yard ,_wide in his eight-hit, 3 to 2 triumph over the-Athletics last night. I The victory, coming after the reviving White Sox twice defeated the Indians, ? to 1 and 8 to 3, put New York and Cleveland into an exact percentage tie for the lead. The Yankees took off to a 2 to 1 . lead in the first inning on three singles by Joe Collins, Bobby - Brown and Joe DiMaggio,. inter- / spersed with a walk to Gil MeDougald. And the Athletics, who had picked Up , a run in their half ( of the inning, didn’t bother Overmire again until the ninth when they got their 3 final tally. The White Sox threw double \ daggers at the Indians. Lefty Bill Pierce halted Bobby Feller in the opener as the Cleveland ace missed in the quest for his 20th victory. Pierce gave up only five hits as the White Sox cashed id on 10, Including homers by Al Zarilla and Ray Coleman that produced five runs. In the second game, Jim Busby hit a three-run homer to put Chicago in front for good and give reliever Luis Aloma his fourth victory against no defeats. The Red Sox alsfo closed in. moving four games behind the deadlocked leaders with a 7 to 4 12th inning victory over the Senators in which Clyde (Clutch) Vollmer singled home tlie deciding run and rookie Fred Hatfield homered for two Reliever Ellis Kinder won his eighth game against two losses. . h .' -4- ' ■ The Tigers topped the Browns. - sto 4, as lefty.

Browns Swamp All-Stars By 33-0 Score Chicago, Aug. 18. —(UP)—The best professional football teams in the business have known \all along just how good the Cleveland Browns are; today the 1951 college all-stars know it, too. Coach Paul Brown’s marauders, who haven’t 1 missed a championship'in any year since they were organized, crushed the collegians, 33 to 0, last night in the 18th renewal of the all-star classic at Soldier Field. A crowd of 92,180 helped make the financial receipts a. record for the series. The Browns resembled a steamroller gaining momentum last night. They tallied two points in the first period on an all-star fumble by SMU’s Kyle Rote, which Notre Dame’s Bob- Williams recovered in the end zone to give the Browns a safety. After that, apparently feeling their way under the sharp dyes of Brown, who sent in play after play to his star quarterback Otto Graham, the Browns began to roll. It was a varied attack—passes by Graham, who completed 18 out of 31 attempts for 269 yards and two totichdowns, or runs by Dub Jones, who made 105-yards in 12 carries, or Marion Motley, whose smashing drives through the line split the collegiate forwards and secondary easily. ’ Cleveland pranced* more than half the length of the field twice for a score in the second period and Jones clipped off one touchdown on a two-yard plunge. Though the second drive bogged down short of a six-pointer, automatic I-ou Groza booted a 20-yard field goal to give the Browns a 12 to 0 advantage. In the final half, the Browns opened up. Graham alternately worked his two star ends, Dante Lavelli, who caught seven throws for 148 yards and one touchdown, and Mac Speedie, who hauled in nine tosses for 107 yards. Jones drove Over for another two-yard touchdown and Graham hit sub fullback Emerson Cole for still another tdlly. ' , ’ These accounted for the final edge, short of the record 38 to O’ tally established by the Philadelphia Eagles two years.ago. But the crowd, which with television and radio receipts added, paid a record of >428,000 to see the match, was convince of the Browps’ mastery. The attendance did not haet a record as such t however, falling short of the 1947 mark of 105,840. \ SEE ADOPTION (C«mtlMned From Paar One) against' ibsuidg any formal reports on its findings when Russell warned that such action would only ■‘renew a bitter controversy." • However, the Republicans decided to issue their findings as a statement of “individual - views."
