WHITE SOX TURN BACK YANKEES
 IN B INNINGS
BrOaca Batted Out in the 7th-All Tanks Runs
 Result of HOnlerS

Chicago, July 21.-The impor- tant Yankees had dificulties here in the slums of the American league, playing with the tailend White Sox. Instead of dominat- ing the situation, they struggl- ed as if they were tailenders themselves. May be ladies' day overcame them yesterday.
 They blew a four-run lead in the seventh, gave the Sox two unearn- score, to 6, in the ninth when Earle Combs hit home run with a man on base, and lost, 7--6, in the thirteenth when Jocko Conlan rapped a single past Heffner, Dykes sacrificed, Bonura popped up,Simmons was passed intention ally and Luke Appling singled cleanly into right field sending Conlan home and ending a game which the Yankees might just as we'll have won in nine innings.
 All the Yankee runs were pro- pelled over the plate by homers. Lou Gehrig hit one, his twenty fifth of the season with two men on bases in the first inning, and Frank Crosetti drove one into the left field stands with the bases empty in the fourth. These were the only runs in the game until the seveth.
 Broaca Routed in Seventh
 Johnny Broaca, the bespectacled old Blue. blew in the seventh after shutting out the Sox with four hits in the first six innings. The Sox batted all the way around, made four hits and had one run forced upon them when Broaca walked two men in succession. When they were through the score was tied, and Broaca was fit to be tied. So was Mccarthy, the manager.
 Sam Jones had been pitching for the Sox. Joe. Heving took his place and held the Yankees in the eighth. Whereupon the Sox jump ed into a two-run lead after Cro- setti fumbled Heving's grounder with one out. This error let two runs score.
 Dykes knocked in one ond Bon- in the box for the Yankees.
 But Heving let Red Rolfe, bat ting for Deshong. get a single in the ninth, and he threw one to Combs which tho old schoolmaster walloped into the right-f1eld stands, retieing the score, 6 to 6. Then the game went on and on, with Charley Ruffing hurling for the Yankees and Phil Gallivan, of the Sox, giving him battle.
 The two hot and tired teams clung to each other as if in clincA, blocking punches until the thirteenth. when the break came and the Sox put over the winning sock. Fortunately, the league-lead- Tig ,rs also lost. The Yankees re- ma!n two games out of first place.
 The Yankees filled the bases after Gehrig's homer in the first, but Jones famed Heffner and Broaca.
 Gehrig Hits 25th Homer
 That home run of Gehrig's was the first he has hit on this trip.
 Tony Lazzeri remained in bed today. distressed by the heat and an upset stomach.
 If Ruth was a smart guy he would remain in Cleveland, where it is comparatively cool. instead of coming here. where 1t Is stifiing, to play in a double-header Sunday.
 Swanson went long way with. out doing anything in the third. He walked. went leisurely to second on a passed ball and took third when Broaca baked.
 It was an unusual balk. Broaca got his feet twisted on the mound and fell down without delivering the ball. Before Broaca could do anything else. Conlan lifted fly to Hoag, ending the inning.
 The Yankees filled the bases in the sixth when Conlan dropped Broaca's low liner. and the short stop cut off the throw which would have forced the runner going to third. But Dykes went up like a rocket after Combs line drive and after pausing for a moments deep but unnecessary thought doubled Broaca at first.
 Tn four of the last five Yankee games one pitcher or another has forced in at least one run by walk ing batsman. It is stuff like this that makes managers prematurely gray.
 A close play at first in the Chi cago half of the tenth so enraged couple of local sportsmen that they tossed pop bottles at Charles Donnelly. umpire. One of the bot ties bounced off the ground and struck him on the leg. He wasn't hurt. The score:
