Kreevich’s Triple With Bases Loaded Gives White Sox Nod Over .Vittmen.

By GEORGE KIRKSEY United Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, Aug. 23.—~The Yankees’ recipe for winning pennants can’t be topped. They put the fear of Jehovah into their nearest rivals and then wait until they commit suicide. The Yanks had an off day yesterday and enjoyed . themselves. Cleveland, a brave contender a month ago for the Amsrican League flag, had a chance to gain half a game but continued to be frightened by the job of being a contender against the world champions. The Vittmen took another slash at their own throat. Even Oscar Vitt’'s new program for Bob Feller on “how to pitch and

win” failed as Cleveland collapsed

before the sixth-place White Sox. Little Mike Kreevich belted a triple with the bases loaded in the seventh inning which enabled the White Sox to triumph, 4-2, and increased the Yanks’ lead to 12 games, Johnny Whitehead outpitched Peller in the pinches to give the White Sox the edge in the fivegame series. Tobin Subdues Bruins Pittsburgh, after its double laceration Sunday by the Cubs, bounced back to championship form and defeated Chicago, 4-2. Jim Tobin held the Cubs to five hits to triumph over Clay Bryant. Singles by Gus Suhr and Pep Young with the bases loaded in the seventh drove in the three important runs. . The triumph enabled the Pirates to increase their National League lead over the Giants to five and one-half games. Cincinnati regained third place by defeating the Cardinals, 11-4. The Reds slammed four Card pitchers for 18 hits, with Frank McCormick leading the attack with five bingles in six trips. Ernie Lombardi chimed in with four hits in five times at bat, including three doubles. Paul Derringer, although rapped for 10 hits, scored his 17th triumph, more than any other liational League pitcher.

Rogell Left Behind With Finger Injury

DETROIT, Aug. 23 (U. P.)—Willie Rogell, Tiger shortstopper, remained behind today as the Ben- " galls opened an Eastern tour in Philadelphia. He was being treated at Ford Hospital for a finger injury | oo received in Sunday’s game with the Browns. - An X-ray examination of the finger will be made today to determine if it is fractured. The Ja cancy in the Tiger lineup was to filled by Mark Christman, rookie infielder. Rogell may join the team in a week.

ZALE LOSES BOUT CHICAGO, Aug. 23 (U. P.) Billy Celebron, 158; Rockford, Ill, outpointed Tony Zale, 146, Gary, Ind. in a 10-round bout here last night.

John Niggeling Hit Hard by Apostles in Short Tilt; Jorgensen Stars.

Times Special ST. PAUL, Aug. 23.—The Indianapolis Indians gnt off on the wrong foot here iast night as they openeci their last 1938 invasion of the West and lost to the league Saints. The Apostles won, 8 to 3, and stretched their lead over the. third place Redskins to six and a half games. It was a five-inning affajr cut short by a dust storm and rain. John Niggeling, Tribe hurler, received a sound thumping by the home batsmen and was derricked for Elmer Riddle in the last inning, The winners collected 10 nits in the five rounds and Vic Frasier held the Hoosie five. Carl Jorgensen, Tribe Yookie outfielder, beltecl a home run with one mate on bage in the fourth stanza. It was Prasier’s 15th victory of the season. ~The Sairts jumped away to a four-run lead in the first frame on two singles, two walks, a double

"steal and two Indian errors. The

Tribe has two more games here, tonight and tomorrow night, before moving to Minneapolis.

Hubbell’'s Arm Put in Splint

MEMPHIS, Aug. 23 (U. P.).—The talented left arm of King Carl Hubbell, New York Giant ace, was in splints today and physicians held out but slight hope that it would swing again this season for the fading National League champions. Dr, Spencer Speed, who removed a piece of ragged bone from Carl's elbow yesterday, said he was getting along fine but that it was too early to forecast his future as a pitcher, Only time will tell, he said. The arm must remain in splints for at least two or three weeks. Then it will have to undergo a long period of careful massaging. Late nexi month fans probably will know whether one of the game’s greatest left arms is through. :

Cook's Goldblume and Maroti Shoe teams are a step nearer the top prize in the Softball Stadium Pot o' Gold tournament as a result of victories last night. She Cooke men, behind. the one-hit pitching of John O'Gara, turned in a 3=to-0 victory over Kingan & Co. while the Shoemen emerged on he long end of a 4-to-1 score against Ajax Beer.

After a two-day session in which all phases of the NEC's far-reaching report were discussed, the editors declared that discriminatory freight rates are “one of the chief causes of low purchasing power” in Southern states, and that from this fact flow “most of the other evils” besetting the economic life of their region.
