classy little Highlander, and Earl
Whitehill, Detroit's smart south
paw singer, are due to hook up in
slab duel today in the second
game of the series at the Griffith
Stadium. AS it happens to be
ladies day, Lisenbee won't need for
vocal support, the girls always
showing their brothers loyalty in
roofing for the home team.
Bucky Harris had one of those
days yesterday and so the Tigers
smashed the little winning streak
to 1. The home brigade had won
four successive games until they
ran up against Lii Stoner. They
stopped instanter.
StOneF was more effective
than he has ever shown before
in his cOmbats with the GriffS.
He gave four hits scattered
through as many frames. To
be sure, he benefited greatly

going like a house afire to the
end and deserved his win.

Hollis Thurston was unfortunate
in his support. Eliminating all the
flossy stuff and he would have lost
by one run. A less experienced
hurler would quite likely have lost
by wider margin than 6 to 1 for
the Washington manager was hav-
ing one of those days.
For 10 games Harris had flashed
brilliantly in the field, outranking
most of the second.sackers in the
circuit. Yesterday he packed into
one exhibition all those misp1ays he
might have spread over the 20 con-
tests. The result was painful, espe-
cially to Thurston.
For five innings there was no
scoring. though Harris began to
totter in the fifth. when he dropped
a short cJas from Reeves. In the
sixth the Tigers got a run across
and thereafter were never headed.
Gehringer singled to right and
with two out stole second, being
assisted by Harris failure to
hold RuePs throw. He rOmped
over when Heilmann doubled to
the wall in left center.
In the eighth, with one gone.
Gehringer singled to center. Manush
bounced to Harris who. seeking
force play at second, hurled past
Reeves into left field. OF course,
that scored Gehringer.
Fothergill lifted fly that dropped
close to the line in right field. scor-
ing Manush. Harris made a valiant
effort to snag that dropping fly
ball, and did manage to touch it,
and so the fans proceeded to swing
their hammers, most of them think
ing that ee-bagger an error for
the Washington manager. He'll
mann bounded to Harris, who
tossed TO Ruel. The latter, driving
Fothergill back to third, threw into
left field and the big Tiger came in.
Oh, that inning was a nightmarish
sort OF a thing
The Griffs got their run in the
eighth when Reeves tripled to right
center and scored while Tavener
was getting rid of Thurston.
In the ninth, with one down,
Stoner stopped a pitched ball with
his arm and reached third on
Warmers double to the wall in left
center. Gehringer brought in both
mates with a single to right.
