Two victories over the leagueleading Milwaukee Brewers out of three starts is sdmething to cheer about. Anyway, the last-place Indians finally saw the worm turn during the first series at home after a disastrous trip on the road, and the Tribesters believe they are going to vacate that cellar ere long. The Kansas City Blues came up from Louisville today for.a round of four tilts with the Redskins, the first of which ‘is scheduled under the lights at Perry Stadium tonight. The Blues are the Tribe's next-door neighbor, having been pushed down to seventh place, and the local pastimers hope to hop right over ‘em during the current series. Vance Page is expected to do the mound chores for the Hoosiers tonight. He has been under the weather with a severe cold and stiff neck, but was reported féeling all right this morning. All games with Kansas City are scheduled to be played at night. :
Marathon Victory
- Marvelous pitching by Red Phil(lips accounted for the Indians’ 3-2 marathon triumph over Milwaukee last night. The contest lasted 14 innings and Big Red “saw her . through” and kept Milwaukee's base hits Taigy scattered. Had the lanky hurler received better support in the field it would have been a wig for the home nine in regulation time, Phillips also had an important part in the scoring of the victory run in the fifth extra round. He was, “up there” with the sacks loaded and two down. Ralph Winegarner, the second chucker employed by the Brewers, pitched him three wide ones and then two strikes. Red fouled off the next one, but getting four over in a row was too much for Ralph and when Umpire Kearvey shouted “ball four” the game ended as Taylor walked in from third with a run.
The 14th inning in the Tribe's half brought Danny Taylor to the plate as lead-off. He smacked a single to left and advanced on Berger’s sacrifice. Shanty Hogan frightened the Brewers and he was passed intentionally. Lewis batted for Archie and was called out on a third strike that looked wide. A base on balls to Parker filled the bases and then Phillips took his winning turn. Eckhardt Connects
Oscar Eckhardt supplied the fans with a thrill in the eighth when he lined out an inside-the-park home run. -It was a’solid drive to center and hit the wall in the far reaches of the park. George Archie was burdened with work around first base for the Tribe and accepted 27 chances, consisting of 25 putouts and two assists. Danny Taylor made a fine running catch on Winegarner’s line drive in the 12th. =

By GEORGE KIRKSEY ~ United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, May 18.—The hottest American League pennant race in years swung Into its second month today with only four games separating the league-leading Philadelphia Athletics from the lastplace Washington Senators. The National League finds the Pittsburgh Pirates out in front by a 3l-game margin and labeled as “the team to beat.” With a 10-day home stand against the weaker Eastern clubs ahead of them, the
- | Pirates are likely to intrench them-
selves deeper in first place. The second intersectional series of the season opened today with the Western clubs in the American League playing in the East and the Eastern clubs in the National League playing in the West for the next 10 days. In the first intersectional games the strength in the National League swung to the West and the power in the American League to the East.
Looking down the American Lensue standing we find the Boston Red Sox in fifth place, but only two
| games back of the A’s. Two days’
results could send the Red Sox into a tie for the lead. The Yanks, who at this time last year were in front never to be headed, trail the Athletics by half a game after tossing away their one-day lead. After losing two straight to the Yanks, Philadelphia came back yesterday to beat New York, 3-2, and regain first place. A wild throw by Catcher Bill Dickey set the stage for the A’s winning rally in the eighth. Dickey’s wild throw permitted Bob Johnson to score the tying run, and then Bill Cissell’s double drove in the winning run. Lefty Gomez allowed 10 hits, and lost his third game of the season. Lynn Nelson, who relieved Thomas in the first inning, held the Yanks to seven hits, and fanned seven. Washington came from behind to defeat the Boston Red Sox, 4-3, in the only other American League game. Jimmy Deshong held the Red Sox to seven hits, winning his fourth game. The Chicago Cubs won their first game of the season from Cincinnati by staging a pair of two-run rallies in the seventh and eighth for a 5-2 victory.

friends never call him, is not one to squander money.
It can’t be that Joe Jacobs, man--
ager of Schmeling, is gesture-ob-sessed, either. Because brother Joseph already has too many obsessions to have any room left for rew ones.. Joseph wouldn't mind the money—because he is probably the quickest man with a doliar in these parts—but when he spends his money he wants more of a play for
roundings of a training .camp. The Garden’s attitude is even more baffling. Its directors_have

been trying to run boxing on a closed purse scale for years, yet this “phantom” fight finds them perfectly willing to spend money for noth ing. Part of the training camp expense is theirs: They are sending a | salaried publicity man to Specula[for in the middle of the week. They 'have ordered the tickets for the fight, and those thousands of gayly embossed pasteboards aren't purchased for a song. - It doesn’t add up, gentlemen. No matter if the Garden does hold a contract for a Schmeling-Braddock fight on June 3, why does it go to such an extreme in showing Schmeling its good faith? He hasn’t ale ways been so considerate.
