Ruppert Rifles Increase Lead to 614, Games by Beating Browns, 8-2.

By GEORGE KIRKSEY

United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, July 31.—The Yankees, with their power, Cubs, with their all-round strength, are taking all the joy of the major league pennant Traces by their sizzling pace. Other con- | tenders rapidly are fading out of the picture. ; For six or seven innings the vanks can look like a team that's ready to collapse and then in the other innings score enough to win. They belted the St. Louis Browns yesterday, 8-2, making all their runs in three frames. They now lead the American League by 6% games. The Cubs clamped down on the Giants, 5-3, after spotting New York a three-run lead. The Giants’ defense collapsed and any time that happens it's Katie bar the door. Bill Terry's team must get gilt edge defensive play or it can't | win. They made four errors yesterday. Chicago's victory, achieved largely | through the timely batting of the | tail-end hitters, Billy Jurges and Phil Cavarretta, and the Giants’ | wavering defense, increased the | Cubs’ National League lead to four |

games. What's Left of Races

With the Yanks and Cubs moving farther ahead, the only races left are: 1. White Sox and Tigers for sec- | ond place in the American League. They are 1! games apart. 9 Browns and Athletics for last place, with St. Louis half a game ahead. 3. Pirates and Cardinals for third place in the National League, with Pittsburgh on top by one game. 4. The Reds and Dodgers for sixth place, with Cincinnati behind | by half a game. Kemp Wicker, rookie southpaw recalled from Newark, hurled the vanks to their victory over the Browns. The Yanks made 12 hits, including Lou Gehrig's 20th homer, Pitcher Jack Wilson doubled in | the 10th, driving in the run by which the Red Sox defeated the | Tigers, 6-5. Washington slammed out YS hits | to smother Cleveland, 13 to 2. Cecil Travis hit a homer, triple ou? two | singles.

made up largely of Scandinavians. No matter what their natural inclinations on shore might have been, they knew they had a responsibility and respected it. This year the Scandinavian infiu- |

ence isn’t so marked. Looking over |

you find such | names as Lowell Wright, Peter Brightman, William Shields, John | King, Fred Wren and Sam (Fibber) Magee, It is a delight, incidentally, to learn that Valentine Koppel, the forthright Finn is still around. Mr. Koppel provided a bit of chaste pleasantry in 1934—as pleas- | ahtries go in yachting circles. The | American boat had won two races and | evened the series with the English | challenger. The crew was in gay | spirts and when Mr. Vanderbilt | came alongside the next morning he found Mr. Koppel back of the sacred wheel wearing the boss’ equally sa- | cred visor. With admirable hospi- | tality Mr, Koppel waved to his boss | and said: “Hello, Mike. Come aboard | and we'll give you a sail.” This was rank mutiny, but it is re- | ported by the privileged onlookers | that Mr. Vanderbilt bore -up bravely under the shocking behavior of the common sailor. There are some Who | ingist he even managed a faint smile | of tolerance, but this has never been completely confirmed. The story of the sea is made up of tall tales. A Familiar Odor There are evidences, however, that | Mr. Vanderbilt is reasonably human | if not strictly an all right guy. In '30 he had a valet—we shall be original and call him Jeeves. One morning the master took a shower and complained about the towel. It had a peculiar odor. “Are you sure you are sending the | towels fo the proper laundry?” asked Mr. Vanderbilt. Sve: was quite sure. “Just the same there is something decidedly wrong with this towel. It smells like dead fish.” “Begging your pardon, sir,” purred Jeeves, “but perhaps you have used it previously.” Mr. Vanderbilt likes to tell the story. himself.

Indians Play

Finale With Kansas City

Winning One; A. A. Race Becomes Torrid.

» Times fpecinl KANSAS CITY, Mo. July 381. With the series standing three to one in favor of the Blues, the Indianapolis Indians were to make their final appearance of the season at Muehlebach Field this afternoon and then board a night train for Milwaukee to meet the Brewers in a double-header tomorrow. The Hoosiers lost three straight to Kansas City before locating their batting eyes and while in the slump tallied only one run in three tilts. They were shut out in the first half of last night's twin bill, 2 to 0, and then bounced back to annex the windup fray, 8 to 4. Don French opposed Ted Klienhans in the first game and four pitchers saw action in the second, Johnson and Phillips for the Tribe and Nieggeling and Moore for the Blues. Four Games Behind

In spite of dropping three out of four the Redskins managed to remain four games out of first place as a result of the outcome of dou-ble-headers at Minneapolis and St. Paul. Toledo swept a twin bill from the Millers yesterday and went into a

The Indians outhit the home team, eight to five, in the initial tilt, but missed scoring opportunities when Kleinhans tightened in the pinches. Two Kansas City double plays checked Tribe rallies. Three hits in the first frame failed to get a run for the Redskins and in the third Archie failed to tally after reaching second with none out. Stumpf’s triple accounted for one K. C. marker and hits by Oglesby and Haslin accounted for the other run. Matheson and Stumpf solved Johnson for home runs in the closing conflict. Eckhardt paced the Tribe offense with four safeties and Matheson got three for the Blues. Johnson was the winning pitcher.
