YALE WHITMAN BIG
 FLASH IN VICTORY OVER BAY STATER

Art Wright, former Yale tennis captain and now a member of the Hartford Golf Club team, flashed a brilliant game yesterday to eliminate Edward Mcknight of Springfield seeded number two in the draw. To make Wright's victory all the more impressive he only allowed his op- ponent three games in the two sets. Mcknight furnished all the ex- citement in the state tourney at New Haven and the New England sectional championships at Hartford last month, but he was far from inn pressive against Wright yesterday. The scores of the match were 6-1, 6-2.
 Brotherly Love? In the only other match in the mems singles Francis Smith, local champion, defeated his brother, Harold, Dartmouth varsity star, in a ding-dong three set match, the sec ond that the winner engaged in in two days. The first set went to Fran cis Smith by 6-3 score, whereupon his brother took the next one with out loss of a single game. The same score was reached also in the third set.
 In the women's doubles Clare Smith and Betty Warner of Pine Or chard reached the final round by eliminating Marianna Richards and Esther Edwards. Margaret Cluett and Mary A. childress had previ- ously reached the finals by eliminat- ing Helen Rice and Mrs Roger Walcott.

CHAMPION PITCHERS ON WAY TO SET
 NEW MOUND MARK
Grove and Earnshaw Can
 Win 30 Games Each Season Not Half Over Yet
BY LEO H. PETERSEN United Press Staff Correspondent)

(Un1ted Press Stan COrreSpOn0ent)
 New York, July 11.-UP).-For the first time since 1921 when Jim Bagby of the Cleveland Indians hurlers stand better than an even chance to wind up season with 30 or more victories.
 Barring accidents, both Lefty Grove and George Earnshaw. pitch ing aces of the Philadelphia Ath- letics, are likely to better Bagby's feat of ten years ago when he turn ed in 31 triumphs. With two more games to be played before the world champions reach the halfway mark in their 1881 schedule, Grove already has registered IT victories while Earnshaw has turned in 15.
 Their Big Chance
 Connie Mack's two aces. who re- ceived little aid except from Rube Walberg in carrying the Athletics to world championships in 1929 and 1880, will receive ample opportun- ity to enter the select group of ma jor league hurlers for thus far this season each has an average Of start ing one, game every four days. In addition they often appear in relief roles. Neither Grove nor EarnshaW has displayed any signs of weaken ing and some baseball experts pre- dict that between them they will turn in 65 victories this season.
 Earpshaw is sure to register more than 30 triumphs if he continues the pace he set this week. He has won two games in the last four days.
 He turned in his second victory of the week yesterday when he pitched the Athletics to an to 14-innlng verdict over the New York Yankees. T.. ,,frI, ho pitched complete game against Washington Tuesday after only one day of rest, relieved Walberg in the seventh inning. Except for the ninth inning, when Ruth singled and Gehrig hit home run to tie the score, Earnshaw held the Yankees at bay.
 Widening the Gap
 The victory enabled the Athletics to increase their lead over the sec- ond place Washington Senators to six full games. The contest scheduled between Washington and Boston was rained out. No other American League games were scheduled.
 The St. Louis Cardinals increased their National League leadership to four and one-half games by defeat- Ing Cincinnati to 1 while the sec ond place New York Giants were idle. The Cardinals scored both of their runs in the first inning on double and two singles while Haines, and Stout who relieved him in the eighth, held the Reds in check.
 Vance Shelled
 Boston defeated Brooklyn to 3 in the other National League con- test. Dazzy Vance shut out the Braves for the first six innings but after yielding a run in the seventh was knocked from the mound in the eighth when Boston tallied three times to win.
 The games scheduled between Chi cago and Pittsburgh and New York and Philadelphia were postponed be- cause of rain.

 The term keep your eye on the ball' is just another way of telling you to keep your head still. If the eye is taken off the ball, of course the head will raise. The result usually is topped shot, since the shoulder also has been lifted.
 Another common fault of the beginner is that of dropping the head. One frequently hears the expression: "Keep the chin up.' Dropping the head causes the shoulders to drop, the left on the backswing and the right on the downswing. This usually results in the club striking the ground back of the bal, taking "a huge divot or going completely under tho ball and boosting it skyhigh.
