Yanks Rally To Defeat Chisox, Increase Lead , -i , • V- I 1U New York, Sept. it comes down to the last inning of the last of the season and the Yankees have to come fi-om behind to win it for the pennant—don’t bet against ’em. J The old sentimentalists who have seen Yankees rise to the occasion bo many, many times in the past, will tell you there lis a heart and a soul in those pin-striped uniforms even before they put the player inside of it. ’And maybe they’re right. There are many who tire of the Yankees winning pennant after pennant and there is a revival once more of that olclycry that resounded through the golden era of Babe Ruth to “break up the Yankees.” But what is there to break up about a ’’powerhouse” in which day after day the opposition gets suaore hits, where not one player is among the league’s leading batters, 1 where no body on the roster has. driven in more than 85 runs in a league where . the pace-setter has *a total of 124, and where even in home runs, the old Yankee ttade mark, there is not-a challenging leader? But despite these deficiencies, the heart, the hustle and that raw clutch courage are there when there is a game that just has to be '\- ' . : . There could be no, betfer illustration than in yesterday’ll smashing 5 to 4 triumph over the White Sox. Joe Collins, occasionally able hit the long ball although he is not noted for it, connected for a threerun eighth inning honier, giving the Yankees tije they, needed to go hfclf d game ahead of the idle Indians, whom they now lead with a 9.1-54 won and lost record and a .828 percentage as against 92-56 and .622 for Cleveland. .. After Chicago had taken a 4 to 2 lead mainly on the of big Eddie Robinson who homered for one tally and tripled and (?ame home on a fly ball for another, the Yankees looked r beaten in the eighth. But Saul Rogovin, who had yielded no runs since the first inning got in trouble when Phil Riziuto singled and Mickey Mantle Tonight SAT. & SUN. Continuous Sat. A Sun. 2 WESTERN THRILLERS!

The 56-year-old Indiana native, Who narrowly missed It apven years ago, won unanimous election as rommissioner, last night through an assist from an Old friend, Warferi Giles of thri Cincinnati Reds. 1 Giles, the only other candidate so contention for the job at the iilrst and only meeting to pick the successor to A. B. “Happy” Chand for, withdrew after more than »even hours of deadlocked deliberations and 17 ballots. X | Immediately the )Bth ballot was foken and each of the 16 majbr league clubs voted for the former sports writer wh<» baa been president Os the National league for 17 years. He-wgs given a sevcontract at $65,000 per year, > $15,000 more than Chandler received. Giles got his chance to make ;hls gracious gesture, and Frick his chance for baseball’s only through a blunt speech 'by the youngest major league executive, Charles A. Comiskey 11, 25-year-old vice-president of the Chicago White Sox, when the stymied meeting nearly broke up in late afternoon. 1 “We've got to elect a commis-

We will have destroyed 'them both. And We’ll have to start all over again to try s and find a commissioner. Neither of thesp men would be eligible again/’ *'* ' i His speech resulted in a quick vote to hold the meeting overtime, into the night, to try to settle the problem. The owners, broke for dinner and then took several more ballots. At 8 pm.
