R yJoe Williams Nats Hand Two Thrilling Games mam NRA Moan's “Never Run Away*’ on Field a m a Washington’s Lead Is Cut to One Tilt
OLK, Aug. B—The American League race was closer than the hoops on anew wine barrel today. One game, the militia and a smothered respect for the law separated the ankees from the league-leading Senators. " ashington Is the city of miracles these days. Aladdineque lamps Illuminate the back alleys. There is nothing the boys can't do. They even ended the Yankee depression Monday. And thats harder than throwing ten with the house gallopers. Baa a a a ended this one by the simple expedient of placing Its ™ * own neck in front of the buzz saw and turning on the lethal 6>rup. They handed the staggering Yankees two ball games a personal note to Hugh Johnson, and an autographed picture of Sistie. aaa a a a So far as the Yankees were concerned. NRA meant never run away. The big town hillbillies who hadn t been able to win a game from Washington at the stadium ail season, put up their dukes and defied the visitors to do their worst. u o a aaa Which is precisely what 'hey proceeded to do. They accepted the challenge literally, like the kaiser who still has a cold dinner in Paris coming to him They blew berth games In the ninth inning, giving the show the old Irben touch, which differs from the One-Eyed Connolly touch in several important respects. aaa aaa F'ROM the moment the first pair of partisan tonsils was lifted high in the August sun. both games were as uncertain as the fate of a pair of cellophane trousers caught on a ten-point nail. That prolonged the agony to an exquisite delirium fer the 45,000 new dealers who dappled the premises, nan aaa The Washingtons got five runs in the second inning of the first game and then cooled of! like a Hollywood blond when the gay stranger's check bounced back Four hits and a boot by Signor Lazzeri composed the scenario. If the Signor's bool had been a shoe, it would have been too big even for Camera. a a a aaa \rOUNG Joe Cronin, who edits the Jife and works of the Senators, failed to come up with a ball hit by Chapman in the ninth and the two winning runs rolled over the plate. They scored it as a base hit, but if Cronin is the best shortstop in the lodge, he ought to catch those kind in his watch pocket. a a a aaa Tlie Yankees got a headlock on the second game when Gehrig holed out with his tee shot in the first inning, scoring a little man In a great overcoat with a long white beard. This turned out to be Joe Sewell. a a a aaa Old Man Ruth grabbed himself a homer, too. in the eighth, with nobody on. which dissolved a 3-3 tie. and for the time being looked like the blow that would not only balance the budget, but stabilize the dollar and bring William S. Hart back to the cowboy operas. 0 0 0 0 0 0 BUT while the old man was regaling his public out in right field with his own merciless version of "It Don't Mean a Thing If You Ain't Got That Swing." the Washingtonians came back in th? ninth and got one more to make it all even on points, including footwork, generalship and infighting. aaa aaa They were in a swell spot to get more than one run. but Goose Goslin missed a third strike with two on. a grunt and a militant swing. And that's how it happened that the Yankees wound up with the blue eagle and the Senators with the blue goose. aaa aaa 'T'HE same two teams fiv back at each other again today in a single I game, but with double fury. The critics agree this series is liable to decide the pennant. The Senators were leading by four games Sunday. Now they are out. in front by only one. It just, goes to show you never can tell about baseball, matrimony or cantaloupes.

Pro Links Stars Open Fight for P. G. A. Title By United Prr*n WAUWATOSA, Wis., Aug. B—An imposing field of more than 100 golfers, including six members of the 1933 Ryder Cup team, opened play today In the sixteenth annual Professional Golfers' Association tournament over the tricky greens and fairways of the Blue Mound CountryClub course. Qualifying rounds over thirty-six holes were the opening day's program. This wiil narrow the field to thirty-two players, who for five days will stroke thirty-six holes of match play daily until the finals Sunday.
Olin Dutra, Los Angeles pro, who won the P. G. A. title last year, was qualified automatically. He will be seeking his second P. G. A. championship. Gene Sarazen, stocky little easterner who twice has won the P. G. A. title, arrived Monday night. Joe Turnesa. Big Bayside (L. I.) pro. turned in the best card on a practice round. He was one of the few entrants' who toured the course Monday, rain keeping the golfers in Milwaukee during the morning. Turnesa shot a 36 on the way out, ; one over par. and came back in 31, four under par, for a 67. He car- I ried five birdies on the last nine. Clarence Hackney, Atlantic City, turned in the next lowest practice score. Shortly after noon Hackney went around in 34-35 —69, one under par. Billie Burke, former national open champion and Johnny Golden, former winner of the SIO,OOO Agua Caliente tournament, shot 71's in the rain. The Blue Mound course yardage is 6.270. Par over the route is 70. It is one of the shortest courses ever selected for a P. G. A. tourney but what the course lacks in distance it makes up In rolling greens and treacherous fairways. ORVILLE GRANT COPS NEGRO TENNIS CROWN Orville Grant today held the Indiana Negro tennis championship, defeating Hopson Zeigler. 8-6. 6-4 7-5. in the title tilt at Douglas park. Gladystine Graves is the women's titleholder as the result of a 6-3. 6-2 triumph in the finals over 13-year-old Babel Alston. Francis Hummons gained the junior crown by stopping D.

The Hoosiers tcok the Millers for three in a row and so far the home nine has handed the Apostles two beatings in three meetings, giving the Tribe a record of five victories in its last six starts.
