GOLDEN STATE.
WINS EASILY

Scoring the first shut-out VIC
tory of the present nightball league
season, the Golden State Cream
cry trimmed the Valley Steam
Laundry boys 80 last night on the
Wilson school grounds. It was the
first appearance of the losers in
league competition this season.
Joe Hurst for the winners pitch
ed classy ball, giving but five hits,
well scattered, and sending down
IA men via the strikeout route.
Walters, southpaw ace of the Laun-
dry nine struck out eleven men but
was given to flights of wildness
which spoiled his effectiveness. Six
of the Creamery team were given
free transportation to first. From
the fifth inning on, Walters settled
down and was there strong but
the damage had already been done.
Home runs by Gott, Porte and
Ehmke featured the batting on
slaught of the winners and an ex-
oeptidhal brand of fielding was
turned in by both teams, but one
error being chalked up against the
players.
This was the last game on this
weeks schedule, the next being
slated for Monday when the Fat
Boys and Studebakers clash.

NEW YORK, May 11.-Instead of
developing an American league PEN
nant winner, four weeks of play
left experts and fans confronted
with one of the hottest, four-cor-
nered, east-west flag battles in the
circuits history.
Swinging into the fifth week,
New York and Cleveland are dead
locked at teh top, just half game
ahead of Washington, which heads
Chicago by half-game.
Strangely enough, the world
champion Yankees made the poor
est showing of this quartet in in
tersectional play, losing four out
of seven western starts. This in
creases the uncertainty of the
Yanks repeating for the pennant,
because last season their 65 vic
tories over western teams was an
important factor in their success.
Cleveland, carrying the hopes of
the west, won four of five meet
ings with eastern opponents; WASH
ington has triumphed in four of
seven western contests, and the
vastly improved Chisox downed
eastern teams in three of five
games.
Cleveland went into a top tie
with the Yanks by beating Boston,
to 2. Six hits off Lefty Weiland
and three Boston errors brought
victory. Willis Hudlin kept his sew
en- safeties scattered and he would
have tagged Boston with shutout,
except for Johnny Burnett's wild

throw in the third. that permitted
two sox runners to score.
Sad Sam Jones, approaching his
41st birthday, held New York to six
hits, as the Chisox crushed the
champions, 10 to 2, hammering
Gomez, MacFayden and Jablonow-
ski for IA safeties. They blasted
Lefty Gomez, ace of the Yanks'
staff from the mound in the Sec
ond inning when they clicked off
five runs. Every Chicago player hit
except Jimmy Dykes who walked
and was driven in with a run. 1t
was the Yanks' worst beating this
season.
Senators Lose
The st. Louis Browns slapped
their traditional jinx on Washing
ton, blanking the Senators, to 0.
The Browns rose out of the cellar
as Washington dropped to third
place. st. Louis punched four of
its six hits off Earl Whitehill in
the eighth inning for five runs. 1t
was the fourth win in five starts for
George Blaeholder, who allowed
seven hits.
Philadelph| wrested fifth place
from Detrol. BIZ downing the Tigers
twice, 3 to and to 4. Bob John
sons home run in the seventh in
ming proved the winning tally in
the opener, and Rube Walberg's
seven hit pitching aided the AS in
taking the nightcap, as they pound
ed Sorrell and Hogsett for IA hits.
Cincinnati replaced Chicago at
fourth place in the National league
by winning both ends of twin bill

Chuck Klein's brilliant batting
could not prevent the defeats. He

a single, and accounted for two
more tallies in the nightcap with
