Race For Tilies In Major Leagues

By , Carl Lundquist United Press Sports Writer NEW YORK, Sept. 6. (UP) ' Into the pressure-packed final days of the pennant , campaigns today went five legitimate contenders an da couple of 100 to 1 shots. Along with the Red Sox, Yankees and Indians in the American League and the Dodgers and Cardinals in the National were those late-surging Detroit Tigers and Philadelphia Phillies who won't quit until somebody ' hits them with a mathematical knockout punch. All of the leaders except the Cardinals swept ruthlessly through to double victories in the Labor Day program and the Tigers and Phils marched right along in stride with the leaders. The Yankees, righting themselves after recent mediocrity, topped the Athletics, 13 to 4 and 5 to 2, to remain Vz games ahead of the Red Sox. Joe DiMaggio's grand slam homer touched off an explosion in the opener in which the Yankees made 16 hits, five by Billy Johnson. Johnson and Hank

Mines Inspected t t Further'- haulage ., and vejectrlqal safeguards to" supplement numerous recent safety gains at the Standard Coal Company's Julian mine near Fritchton, Knox County Ind., are proposed in a Federal reinspection report issued today by the Bureau of Mines. At the time of the July' Safety survey by Inspectors J. Z'. Sheiidan and W. B. Dalrymple, .the mine employed 340 me a and averaged 2,450 tons o' coal daily. To help increase haulage and electrical safety, the inspectors advised removing materials obstructing haulageway clearance and shelter holes, use of permissible trip lights and discontinuance of riding on the trolley-wire side of open maiicars, insulator support for the power wires, more if e :tive guarding of the trolley wires, as well as frame-grounding of certain electrical equipment. Sheridan and Dalrymple cited nearly a score of recent safety

improvements. Among these were i

safe storage of explosives, use of a permissible explosive for all brushing shots, sufficien' an in the working sections, sealing of specified areas, cleaning coaldust accumulations from the mine and rock dusting to with
