the reputed payment of $25, 900 to

Boken Bangs One.
THIS was the spot Boken picket

THIS was the spot Boken picked
for his circuit clout. The for
mer National sent Crowder's
high and inside pitch soaring into the
upper stand back of left and trailed
his boss across the plate to give the
White Sox the edge.
1t wasn't long before this edge was
worn off by the Cronin crew. Phil
lips stroll at the start of the third
was of no use, but Kuhel blazed the
way to three-run rally when he
began the fourth with a bunt to
Bonura good for a base. Manush
laced a single and Kuhel pulled up
at the far corner. Dykes allowed
Travis grounder to slip through for
an error, and the score was tied.
Manush reached third on Dykes
misplay, but tried to tally as Stone
drove a skidder to the first baseman.
1t looked as though Heinie had slid
under Bonura's throw, but Umpire
Moriarity ruled otherwise. Cronin
came along with a single to count
Travis and Stone registered at the
final base as Schultz forced out the
pilot.
In the eighth the Nationals drove
Gallivan from the hill with a four
run splurge. Kuhel launched this
offensive with his second hit, sharp
single to right Manush followed
with safe bunt, the White Sox in
the vicinity of first forgetting to
cover. The points were packed after
Gallivan picked up Travis sacrificial
tap and threw to third too late to do
any good for his side.
A long slice to left by Stone was
good for q single that got Kuhel and
Manush over the counting block.
Gallivan scooped Cronin's bunt,
chucked wild past first base, and the
cushions were crowded again. Schultz s
long fly moved Travis to the plate,
and Phillips hoist let Stone tally. Up
stepped Crowder to blast Gallivan
from the slab with a two-bagger
But Cronin had to pull up at third
on the hit, and Myer could get moth
ing more of the relieving Tietje than
q bounder to the first sacker.

a great golfer, and when Little made
charming speech in accepting the
trophy they interrupted him after
every sentence with a booming cheer.
Throughout the sensational, record
cracking match Little's face was a
mask of determination, but he smiled
when the cup was presented to him
by the venerable Marquis Ailsa, act
ing for the Prince of Wales.
As far as $4,000 Scots are concerned,
Little now supplants Bobby Jones and
the veteran Harry Vardon as the
worlds greatest golfer. They saw him
shoot % holes in eight under par, in
cluding seven brides and an eagle
three for new all-time record for
this classic tournament.

created new low for championship
rounds.

36-hole match did Little yield to
par. The lapse occurred at the sixth
hole, where he required two puts from
feet for q five. Otherwise he was
even with par or under regulation
figures.
The chunky Californian sent the
gallery wild at the 505-yard third hole
in the morning. He belted two healthy
wood shots to put the ball Is feet past
the cup and then sank the putt for
brilliant eagle three, demoralizing the
carpenter, who shared birdie.

r TITLE again emphasized his driv-
ing power at the 2S8-yard six

lone one to the edge of the green and
followed this up by laying his ap-
proach stone dead.
After the match was over Little ex-
pressed regret that 1t didn't last longer,
and well he might.
There was q jqbilant and dramatic
scene around the club house after the
presentation when Little went out to
the eighteenth green with one of the
clubs oldest members and engaged in
q putting contest with q century-old
wooden putter. He won hands down
and several thousand Scots, who still
fingered around more than an hour
after the match was concluded,

Indians continued their
Y heavy hitting as they
kept close on the trail
of the league-leading New York
Yankees with a 7-to-O victory
over the Philadelphia Athletics
today.
They jumped on Joe Cascarella,
Connie Mack's little right handed
rookie, in two big innings to score all
their runs. Meanwhile, Willis Hudlin,
veteran right-hander. gave the Tribe
its first shutout of the season by lin
iting the AS to six hits. 1t was his
fourth victory of an undefeated sea-
son and his best performance of the
campaign.
Cleveland started right out to win
the game In the first inning. Bob
Seeds, new member of the Tribe,
opened with a single, Earl Averill
followed with another, and Sammy
Hale walked to load the bases with
two out. Hal Trosky smashed a
double to right for the first two runs,
and a third scored when Pinky Hig-
gins made a wide throw of Frank
Pytlak's grounder.
