NEW YORK, June 22-CP-The

able to accumulate a lead OF eight
and one half games over the world
champion New York Yankees with

advantage IN the last two days ma
been something else again. The AS

today. The Yankees had to go IA
innings to even the count for the
day but finally succeeded, 4 to 3.
A crowd, said by officials to have
almost exactly equalled the record
week day attendance at the first Of
the bargain days when 66.145 paid
to see the class Of the American
League fight fer a place in tlfe sun,
stayed through the classic.
Baffled by RUDE Walberg's speed
until IL was too late TO do them any
good. the Yankees fell easy victims
IN the opener.
The nerve raeking excitement Of
the second game caused most OF the
customers TO forget all about the
first. Old Jack Quinn went out to
show the Yankees that there was
life in the old boy yet. George Pip
gras. his opponent, young enough to
be his son. pitched carelessly the
first inning and thereafter spent
the afternoon trying to get them
back.
One of the games most dramatic
moments was contributed bv Babe
Ruth who sent home the tying run
in the eighth inning with a bunt.
