CHAMPIONS RUN
 UP TEN WINS AT
 INDIANS EXPENSE
Best of Series With Detroit Will Give As Big Edge to Repeat - Giants Creep Up on Cardinals
BY LEO u. PETERSEN

United Press Staff COrrespOndent)
 New York, May 19-(UP)--A ten- game winning streak, the longest recorded by any major league ciup this season, was held by the Phiia- delphia Athletics to-day as they met the Detroit Tigers, considered the class of the western teams of. the American League, for the first time this year.
 Against the other western clubs Chicago, St Louis and Cleveland the Athletics have flashed the form that brought them the 1929 and 1880 world baseball championships. They have won all eight of their games against western foes and should they continue their success agaipst the Tigers, there will be many baseball fans who will label Philadelphia already fin" for the 1881 pennant.
 One Big Inning
 The Athletics registered their tenth consecutive defeat for the In- dians. Philadelphia overcame Cleveland's early lead and clinched the contest by scoring four runs in the eighth inning.
 New York kept within two games from the league leaders by over whelming Detroit. 20 to 8. The Yankees pounded four Tiger hurlers for 19 hits as Wells coasted to vic- tory.
 In the only other American league game the Chicago White Sox won from Boston, 9 to 8, and advanced to fifth place in the standings. A six run rally in the ninth inning en- abled Chicago to win.
 The New York Giants advanced to within a half game of the National League lead when they defeated St Louis, current pace settlers, to 3. Walker held the Cardinals to six hits but errors by his mates aided St Louis in scoring their runs. The Giants clinched the game in the second inning when they scored four runs off Haines.
 Here Comes Boston
 Ed Brandt registered his sixth victory of the season as the Boston Braves defeated Pittsburgh to l., to advance to within two games of St Louis. Brandt allowed but five hits while Boston made the most of it's six blows off Brame, making his first start of the year for the Pirates.
 A two run rally in the ninth in- ming, capped by Hurst's single, gave Philadelphia a to 4 victory over Chicago. Hurst's blow SCI red Bar tell with the winning run, Arlett hit his seventh home run of the year in the second inning off Baecht, Paci- fic coast rookie, who hurled well un- til the ninth inning when he was re- lieved by Jackie May.
 "Ray for Babe"
 Brooklyn came to life and dis played the batting power expected of the team in walloping Cincinnati IA to 4. The Robins got 16 hits off four Red hurlers. Babe Herman got four of them, including home run, a triple, double and single. Thurston scattered the 12 hits he allowed Cin- cinnati in registering his first vic- tory of the season.

New York, May 19--Strength in the National league appears to be evenly divided this season between east and west, but Atlantic coast teams hold a wide margin of super iority over their western fivals in the American league.
 With four days of play remaining in the opening intersectional series of the year, eastern and western Ma tional league clubs are on an neve basis with 10 victories each. In the American league, eastern clubs have won 23 games with western teams winning only eight.
 How They Compare.

Doesn't Love SOx

Doesn't Love Sox Over at the camp of the Cleveland Indians is another who is trying with all his might to return. He is Bill
 Hunnefield, taken up in the draft from Toledo, whither he landed after several indifferent years with the
 White Sox. Hunnefield told me he
 never had been satisfied with the
 treatment he received from White
 Sox officials.
 q only hope I can start the sea- son some place in the infield," he told me. especially since the In-
 dians play the opener against the
 White Sox. Wouldn't like to play against those Sox!"
 Yet another who is trying to re-
 turn is Wiley Moore, brought back from St Paul to the Red Sox by Bob Quinn. Moore's great pitching
 won the pennant (that and some
 lusty hitting) for the Yankees in 1927. He still insists he is only 33
 years old, and his record of 22 won. 10 lost for St Paul last year makes lit appear he should never have been
 allowed to slip away in the first place.

 At the camp of the Robins at Clearwater, Fla, are Joe Shaute and Fred Heimach. Shaute, who had several good years with Cleve- land, finally was released last year with an ailing fiipper. He went to Toronto, pitched several good games for Steve O'Neill, and now reports the whip much better. Heimach, sent to Toledo by the Yankees, was purchased by the Robins and is ready to give up his life for Uncle Robbie if he'll let him stay.

owe are of the opinion that there
is a vast difference between the two
statutes. The fourteenth amendment
is directed against prohibitions and
restraints imposed by states and the
fifteenth amendment protects the
RIGHT to vote against denial or
abridgment by any state or by the
United States.
"Neither amendment operates
against private individuals or volun-
tary associations A political party
is voluntary association and has in
herent power to prescribe the quail
ifications of its members.
The opinion sets forth that the
act of 1927 by the Texas legislature
was not needed to confer the power
upon the executive committees of
the different parties. but merely rec
ognizes power that already had ex-
listed.
The opinion concludes with the
observation that it is true that there
are many provisions in the Texas
primary law which are designed to
safeguard the ballot and assure fair
and honest elections; but none of
these provisions deny any citizen the
right to vote in primary election.
