A Second-inning attack, in which
Caldwell himself drove in a run, gave
the Browns three-run lead. Beau

another.
OF Dennis Galehouse, also a right

hits, punching five of them in the big
second inning.
1t was Jim Bottomley day at Sports

De Shong run into any more
trouble after the bad second inning,
probably because he allowed no hits.
Then with one out, McNair socked a
home run over the left-field fence.
Almada looped a fuke double to right
field and Ferrell dropped a Texas
league single to center to help in the
general annoyance of Mr. De Shong
while Miles, James Brooklyn's own
catcher, betrayed him to the extent of
letting pitch go by him. Almada
scored on this high treason, but
Melillo ended it by lining to Red Kress,

SMART HITS BACK
De SHONG, IN TRIM
Rally Coming After Rain
Checks Game Gets Win
for HarriSmen.
BY FRANCIS E. STAN,
staff Correspondent of The Star.

~ OSTON, Mass, August Is
- James Brooklyn De Shong, our
Nationals ray of pitching
D sunshine, yanked on the brake
lever today and Washington's latest
losing streak came to grinding stop
as the Red Sox bowed in an "even-up"
ball game by an 11-to-5 count.
Surviving such annoyances as rain
storm, semi-pro support and a brief
barrage of lucky enemy blows, De
Shong held the high-priced hirelings
of Tom YaWkey to seven hits while the
washingtons chased Fritz Ostermuller,
of all people, and continued lusty
l3-hit batting attack at the expense
of Jack Wilson, Mike Nicola and Jack
Russell.
Thus, on the strength of today's
happenings, WaShington'S bargain
counter athletes once more are barking
at the heels of the Red SoX, whose
ffth-place leadership over the Griffs
again is by a margin of only two full
games.
Before the booming bats of Ben
Chapman, Joe Kuhel, Walter Miles
and Carl Reynolds began to boom,
Boston seemed we'll on its way to a
second straight win in this series. In
the second inning De Shong walked
Johnny Kroner and, after getting Nc
Nair. he pitched run-scoring single
to Mel Almada. Then he walked Rick
Ferrell and Oscar Melillo toted his
usually quiet bat to the plate and shot
a triple down the first base line for
two more runs.

NEW high for umpiring stupidit

A NEW high for umpiring stupidity
was set today by Mister Charley
Johnston and had the ball game been
closer 1t might have been costly-both
to Charley and to the Nationals.
In the sixth inning. after McNair
started a rally by bashing a home
run. Mel Almada looped a ball just
over Kuhels head and far in front
Of Reynolds. Kuhel making a great
effort, managed to grab 1t on the
first bounce while Almada headed
for second base.
Bill Summers, the first-base UNI
pire. raced out with Kuhel to wit
ness the catch, If made. Bill Dineen,
behind the plate. placidly gazed at
the whisky sign on the left-field fence.
And on third base Johnston was
buSily giving himself manicure while
Knhel's great throw to Bluege at
second. seemingly nailed Almada by
3 feet.
Bluege tagged Mel as he slid in
and looked around for an umpire.
Since nobody was in position to
see the play it was assumed by all,
except the Mats, that Alnada was
safe. He scored few moments later
on a Texas Lacquer by Ferrell and
a passed ball.
