gruelling matches of the long tour

Lown has the Olympic style Of
fighting down pat. That is, he has
an open, clean method of attack,
not going into clinches If possible.
In other words. he doesn't hold and
hit-so usual to the American style
Of fighting. The Olympics demand
the open style; for them it is the

Lown certainly is far superior to

foreign Olympic officials.

is plainly apparent that the person

the the past eight years.
The excellent material which the
Boston tournament uncovered
makes the American Olympic box

ever had been in the past. I was
especially impressed by the grow
ing number Of college boxers who
participated, representing institu-

The Boston officials Of the A. A.

no little credit for the manner in

NATIONAL LEAGUE
RACE TURNS INTO
SIX-CLUB BATTLE
Game and a Half Separates
Giants and Cubs in First
and Sixth Places
(By The Associated Press)


Thus far, the first east-west SER
les has served to bear out pre-sea-
son predictions that the National
League race Of 1928 would develop
into a free-for-all battle involving
six or more Of the eight clubs.
The New York Giants and Brook
lyn Robins went into the west with
a firm hold on first and second
place, respectively, chiefly because
Of cut-throat competition among
the western teams. Today the
Giants were still in first place al
though sitting far from comfort
ably there, ond the Dodgers had
dropped to the fourth rung. Chi
cago, in sixth place, was only a
game and half behind the league
leaders.
All four eastern clubs were beat
en- yesterday.
The Giants invaded Forbes field
and dropped a 6 to 5 decision to
DOME Bush's Pittsburgh Pirates.
Burleigh Grimes, traded by the
Giants for Vic Aldridge during the
winter, chalked up his fourth vic
tory in six starts, tanning seven
men. Aldridgc has yet to pitch for
the Clan McGraw. Dutch Henry
was on the mound for the Giants
and might have carried the verdict
but for poor support. Freddie
Lindstrom had a had day at third
base, making two costly errors.
George Grantham stole home in the
second inning.
Braves Fall Again
The Cincinnati Reds took advant-
age of Ed Brandt's wildness to
score to 2 win over the Boston
Braves. The Reds Tailed four runs
in the sixth on two hits and five
passes. Hughie Critz had LIS;
day, making three hits, one a hon.
er, and handling eight chances in
the field without bobble.
The Cubs ran their winning
streak to four games by turning
back the Robins, to 3. Percy
Jones having the edge on Jess Petty
in pitching duel. Xxi Cuyter, in
jured hand and all. returned to the
Cub lineup and drove in two runs.
Six Philadelphia hurlers were SUBJ
jected to barrage of St. Louis hits
and the Cardinals won, Is to a.
Yanks Shut Out
Over in the American League, the
New York Yankees suffered their
second shutout of the year as
George Uhle pitched the Cleveland
Indians to 8 to victory. Uhle
gave up four hits and completely
silenced the bats of Babe Ruth and
Lou Gehrig. Herb Pcnnock, proud
owner Of five-game winning
streak, was on the short end for the
first time this year although he
pitched good ball.
The Athletics moved up to within
two games of the leaders by nosing
out the St. Louis Browns at Phil
adelphia, 4 to 8. Cobb scored the
winning run in the seventh on Joe
Hauser's safe hit.
A four-hit pitching masterpiece
bv Ed Morris, carried the Boston
Red Sox past the Chicago White
Sox, 5 to l, and out of the cellar.
The Sox, losing their seventh
straight game, dropped into last
place.
Marberry and Lisenbce were
pounded for II hits by the Detroit
Tigers in Washington overwhelm-
ing defeat at the capitol, IL to 2.
Bob Fothergill hit two triples, a

Reiuvcnated Cleveland Club
Brings More Poison to
New York Yankees
BY ALAN ]. GOULD
Associated Press Sports Editor

New York, May 9.-(H9-It's a
big season so far for ambitious
youth in the major leagues and the
Cleveland Indians, under new man.
agcmcnt and rejuvenated by a good
share Of this new talent, have start
ed something that they hope to be
able to finish.
"The way these youngsters, such
as Lind at second base, Langford in
center, Hodapp at third and others,
have come through so far, along
with some great pitching, has kept
US up in the race" says Roger
Pcckinpaugh, the field manager.
"And we expect to stick there
adds Billy Evans, the general man.
ager, patting Peck on the back.
And you can count on it," con-
Guided Alva. Bradley, millionaire
president Of the club, patting both
Peck and Evans on the back.
An Unusual Trio
This new Cleveland triumvirate
invading the stronghold Of the
worlds champions for the first time
is one Of the most unusual in the
game.
There is Bradley who, with his
brother, Charles, is the chief finan-
cial hacker and also an ardent root
err; Evans, an umpire for % years
now installed as chief business ex-
ecutive; and Peckinpaugh, veteran
shortstop, wise old head in the
game, handling and adjusting his
somewhat make-shift lineup with
consummate skill.
So far they have been getting
results, much more SO. in fact, than
even the most enthusiastic hackers
Of the Indians anticipated at the
start of the season. They are safely
entrenched in he first division
within striking distance of the top
although tht experts en- masse as
signed them in preseason calcula-
tions to sixth position. Only one
critic was confident enough to rate
Cleveland as high as fourth.
Team Spirit Boosted
The opening victory Of the In
dians over the mighty Yankees, with
George Uhle outpitching Herb Pen
mock and breaking the latter's win
ming streak. probably will do the
morale Of the club more good than
anything that has happened so far
The team spirit under Peck has
been high anyway, but it will be
higher.
The Indians have been more OF
less poison as a whole to theYan-
KEGS over the past few seasons and
Uhlc has been particularly so indi-
vidually. The veteran pitcher has
lost only one game to the New
Workers in the past two years and
his latest victory in his ninth in that
period over them,
The Indians nearly knocked the
Yankees out Of the pennsnt in 1926
with late season flourish. Last
wear they were the only club to hold
the champions anywhere near even
terms, winning 10 and losing IL
games. All told. over a three-year
period Cleveland has won SO and
lost 81 games with the Yankees.

Several Times in the Lead
One thing that Bill didn't tell US

garnered this by perusing the files

race. It isn't hard to understand
after seeing Bills six feet three
inches Of finely drawn muscles
carrying him easily around the
track.
Encased in heavy leather shoes
with soles one half inch thick, Bill
barely lifts his feet from the
ground.
