: Sos Finally Gets Return on Investment

Stephens, Kinder Combine to Give Red Sox

4-3 Win, 2d Straight Victory Over Tigers

By CARL LUNDQUIST, United Press Sports Writer "NEW YORK, May 6—Businessman Tom Yawkey can't be blamed for wanting a little return on an investment that cost] his Red Sox nine players and something like $300,000. And today, after two weeks in which it looked like the Browns bilked him, | he counted his first tid:

Stephens and three innings relief pitching by Ellis Kinder. ns smashed an 1ith inning home run that broke up the ball game in a 4-to-3 victory, the second straight over the Tigers at Boston, and Kinder, by holding Detroit to one hit and no runs, gained credit for his first victory in a Red Sox uniform. More than that, it was the first time he had even pitched a ball in competition. Like Jack Kramer, the other star pitcher who came to the Red Sox in Yawkey’s “pennant-buying” deal, he had been laid up with injuries, but now it looked as if he was ready to go. Kramer, though a winner in his only start against the | | Yankees, was rapped solidly, so| ; |until yesterday Yawkey couldn't 1 have felt too happy about his off[séason dealings with St. Loufs.
