GEHR|G RETAINS
 0NE.P0INT LEAD
Yankee First BaSeman Is Just
 Ahead of Al Simmons

Chicago. Aug. 16 P-Lou Gehrig and Al Simmons marched in lock step in the American league batting parade last week, with the result that the Yankees first baseman re- tained his point lead over the Athletics chief slugger, according to unofficial averages which include Wednesdays games.
 Gehrig gained two points to bring his mark to .SS4, and Simmons checked in with like gain for .383. to leave the former at the top for the third consecutive week. While Gehrig was unable to shake Sim mons, no one cut in on his other three leaderships. He had propelled in 13S runs. had hit safely 166 times, and his total bases amounted 10 322. Johnny Hodapp of Cleveland, who had hit safely 165 times.
 Gehrig's more famous team mate George Herman Ruth, was in a class by himself in two departments - hitting home runs and scoring. He added two honors to give him 43 for the season and place him 10 ahead of Gehrig his nearest Ameri- can league rival, and scored four times for a total of 128 runs, eight more than Simmons had collected.
 The base-stealing situation re- mained unaltered with Charlie Geh- ringer and Marty McManns of De- troit, remaining deadlocked with 16 each. Hodapp smacked out pair of doubles to go into sole possession of the lead in that department with 35, while Earl Combs of the Yankees got another triple. to break up his tie with Carl Reynolds of Chicago, Combs topping the list with Is.
 Following Gehrig and Simmons, other leading batsmen were: Coch- rane, Philadelphia. .377; Ruth, New York, .3e3; E. Rice, Washington, .362; Dckey, New York, .361; Ma hush. St. Louis Washington .356; Averill, Cleveland, .351; Hodapp, Cleveland, $50; Cronin, Washington, .344.
 With Gehrig Ruth and Dickey set ting the gait, the Yankees contin- ued 10 lead in team batting with an average of .3ll, a point better than week ago. Washington gained

 The Businessmen have been prac- tiCins faithfully for the battle, pull ing q smart trick on the Trumbull nine by not telling them of the game until Tuesday.
