~ ECENT tades among the clubs
- Of the American League seem
IN to have been series of wise
moves on the part Of the vari-
Gus managers involved. Every
team that acquired new material in
these deals is giving an appearance Of
new life, and the pennant race, already
too close for the comfort Of the leaders,
bids fair to become closer.
The ST. Louis Browns, whose batting
average has been down so far it was
almost out of sight, certainly have
benefited by the acquisition of Goose
Goslin. The Goose, who was doing
practically nothing for Washington, has
cut loose with his bat, hitting three
home runs since he joined the Browns,
two in the past two days. Yesterday S
homer aided considerably in the Browns
4-3 victory over the Boston Red Sox.
Sam Gray did the rest by holding Bos-
ton to five hits.
Washington's new acquisition didn't
get much chance to hit yesterday. as
the Senator'S were locked in a pitching
duel with the Chicago White Sox, but
Art Shires and Heinie Manush already
have started clouting. With Ted Lyons
on the mound and Ben Tate providing
capable catching at last, the SoX
nosed out 2-to-1 triumph.
Wrestling Tries Hard.
George Wrestling, formerly OF De-
troit. did his best to keep the New York
Yankees from losing to his former
mates after he replaced Lyn Larry, who
went out in the third inning with a
broken thumb. but his first and second
hits of the season were not enough to
beat the Tiger clouting. Detroit started
by scoring five runs in the first inning,
and won the game by IL to 6.
The Philadelphia Athletics took ad-
vantage of the lapses by two of their
leading rivals and made their place at
the head of the American League stand
ing somewhat safer by defeating third,
the Cleveland Indians, 8 to o, increas-
ing their margin of leadership over New
York and Washington to 2l2 games.
George Earnshaw pitched a great game
to give the Indians their first shutout
of the year and their sixth straight de-
feat. He allowed but five hits and struck
out eight.
National Race Tightens.
While the gap between first and sec
ond places in the junior circuit was
widening, Brooklyn and Chicago, first

YANKEES ARE HARD HIT =
BY THE LOSS OF Larry

NEW YORK. June 21 (C.P.A).-Just
when they seemed at the crest of a
batting rampage, which was speeding
their pace in the American League
race, the New York Yankees have lost
the services of their star shortstop, Lyn
The broken right thumb suffered by
the former California player in yester-
days game with the Detroit Tigers will

must be given to him for the recent
success of the New York team.

complete mastery of form and style, but
almost a mastery of self-of unbroken

the wear and tear of nerve exhaustion.
Winning the British amateur over
such a rough road must have sapped a

AT THE, EMBASSY

There is something new under the sun. We saw it last night - and heard it also and were given the treat of the season.
 It was offered to our theater staff for the first time yesterday when the premiere of the new DeSylva, Brown and Henderson Fox Movietone musi- cal comedy, Just Imagine was held at the Embassy theater. And in our humble. critical opinion it is a worthy successor to their previous great success. Sunny Side Up"
 It is laid in a 1880 setting. when the world has changed materially in virtually every element except TO- nance. The story of the love of the "Lindbcrgh of 1880" in the person of John Garrick for Maureen O'Sul- livan is beset with the traditional difficulties of romance of all time, but, of course. this being a musical comedy, true love conquers in the end.
 Fl Brendcl, the hilariously funny Swedish comedian, has the principal role and moves in and out of the story at frequent intervals, provid- ing a generous portion of comedy, his second great success this season, having scored in Raoul Walsh's epic, The Big Trail" He is ably as- sisted by the vivacious Marjorie White and Frank Albcrtson. the latter essaying his first light comedy role with marked success.
 Added special attraction-Official

AT THE STRAND

Probable David" Joseph Herges- heimer's greatest story which was brought to the talking screen by Co., lumbia Pictures. is now showing at the Strand theater where it will re- main for days with vaudeville.
 The story is concerned with noun taineer's feuds. back hill hates and the beautiful romance of two un- sophisticated youngsters still in their teens It is a favorite with the pub lie and extraordinary care was taken to choose just the right people 10 interpret the roles. For the title role. Richard Cromwell, an unknown boy. was chosen over ono hundred and scVenty-tWo contestants. Those who have seen his performance in this role predict that he has a brilliant future in store for him. His per formance is declared sensational. The feminine lead opposite him is handled by the charming young star, Joan Peers, the. youthful play er who scored q personal success in her film debut opposite Helen Nor gan in Applause"

Of course it was a bit out of the ordinary for a man to ask for the return of gift made to an attract i've young woman. But Garry, pos sessed of jealous wife and an imagination, couldn't see any other way out of it. It would have gone on very nicely had Mabel seen things in the same light, but she didn't. She decided to retain the gift, Garry decided that he must have it by hook or crook" He tries both methods.
 ''Up in Mabel's Room" the Will son ColIison- -Bertram Harrison farce comedy is being presented this week at the Capitol theater.
