Major Leagues
Hero and Goat

HERO-JOhnny Marcum, PhiIa-
delphia Athletics hurler, who held
the Red SOx to six hits in the Sec
Ond game of a double header and
batted in two runs to win for his
team, 4 to 3.
GOAT-Pat Malone, whose two
fielding errors for the Yankees in
the seventh inning against the
Washington Senators, helped give
the New Workers all to 10 defeat.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1935-08-05

OLner year at 4eaSL.
Only the most optimistic still
feel the Yankees have a chance
to outStep Mickey CochrsHe's De.
troit Tigers to the American
League flag and then engage the
Giants in the annual fall classic.
At the moment the Yankees are
trailing the Tigers by four and a
half games. This is not an i'm
possible disadvantage to overcome
even at this late date-but the
impression is growing that the
Yankees lack the spirit to make
a last-ditch fight of it.
No one, except the Yankee
players themselves, has any way
of knowing whether or not this
charge is true, but the average
fan can't be blamed for suspecting
there's some basis to it in view
of the clubs showing in recent
weeks.
Against the Washington Sena-
tors yesterday the Yankees had
every excuse to win, but faulty
fielding and feeble pitching put
them on the short end OF an
lilo score.
While the Yankees we're blowing
this one, Tommy Bridges. of the
Tigers, was holding the Cleveland
Indians to four hits and shutting
them out, Z to 0, for the American
League champions fifteenth vic
tory in 20 starts against the Tribe,
who were rated with their most
dangerous rivals in preseason
dope.
Browns Shock ChiSOx
The third-place Chicago White
Sox got the shock of their lives
when the lowly st. Louis Browns
trimmed them in both ends of a
double-header, 10 to 2 and 4 to /.
HornSby's men batted savagely
against Ted Lyons in the first
game and against Les Tietje in
the nightcap.
At Boston a crowd Of 10000
the largest of the season-saw the
Red SoX and the Philadelphia
Athletics split even in a pair Of
games. The Sox took the opener,
7 to 6, as Yves Terrell achieved his
eighteenth triumph of the season.
The second game saw Johnny
Marcum holding the Red Sox to
six hits and batting in two runs
to give Connie Mack'S men victory
by the score of 4 to 3.
In the National League, the New
York Giants stretched their lead
over the Chicago CUBS to three
full games by taking both ends OF
a double header from the Boston
Braves, 9 to 2 and 10 /. The
Braves offered Terry'S inen sterner
opposition than was expected, but
the twirling Of Hal Schumacher
and Carl Hubbell was too much
for them.
The Cubs, much to their cha
grin, were held to an even break
in a twin bill with the Cincinnati
Reds. The Reds fell upon Lon
Warneke in the eighth inning OF
the first game to score all their
runs and win by a score Of 5 to /.
The Cubs took the second game,
4 to 3, thanks to three-un as
sault on Frey in the sixth.
Exception
When the Brooklyn Dodgers
and the Philadelphia Phillies
clash in a double-header there's
usually plenty of hitting, but yes
terday's twin bill was an excep-
ton. The Dodgers took the
opener by the respectable score of
4 to /, while the Phillies emerged
victorious in the nightcap by a
mere S to 4 count.
Two stirring last-minute drives
enabled the St. Louis Cardinals to
score twice over the Pittsburgh Pi-
rates, 4 to 3. and 6 to 5. The first
game went 10 innings and was de-
cided on Leo Durocher'S timely
single, scoring Martin. Two sin
giles, a double and a sacrifice
gave the Cards two runs and VIC
tory in the ninth inning Of the
nightcap.

The Sky Roof

It is possible that the roof for useful stratosphere flights was reached on No- vember II when Captain Stevens and Captain Anderson, in the Explorer II, reached an altitude of more than 74,000 feet. If all the devices for recording val uable information were discarded, bet ter altitude might be made. Such flight would be merely stunt Unnamed sounding balloons have already gone much higher. Rockets may some day push up few more miles, but that is diff ferert.
 According to experts of the national Bureau of Standards, who tested the fabrics used in the Explorer II, the ca pacity of such balloon has to be doubled for every 10000 feet of altitude. For an ascent to 100000 feet, the capacity Of the bag would have to be 8,000000 cubic feet or more. The balloon of Explorer II had capicty of 3,700,000 cubic feet and required two and three-quarters acres of fabric.
 There will be other attempts to make higher altitude record, for science and sport. But most stratosphere flights hereafter will be made merely to add to the accumulation of scientific facts which men and instruments can record at heights already attained.
