In the batting order, poked a drive
to deep left. The ball bounced off the
outstretched glove of Johnson, Lewis
scoring and Newsom reaching third,
where he was stranded when Kuhel
went out.
Ben Chapman, brilliant all after
noon in the outfield, seemingly scored
the winning run in the seventh with
a daring piece of base running. He
walked to start the frame and moved
to second when Myer beat out a bunt.
After kuhel went out, AL Simmons
grounded to Cissel, whose throw to
NeWsome at second forced Kuhel. At
tempting double play, the shortstop
pegged to Dean at first and, too late,
the AS saw what Chapman was bent
on doing-scoring from second on
force play. With a great slide Ben
scored ahead of Deans hurried throw
to the plate.
This made it 4-3 and Newsom
looked to be "home," for, after the
second inning, the AS found base hits
hard to get. Between Bucks pitching
and Chapmans fancy fielding the
Macks got only one hit from the third
inning through the eighth.
Newsom brought his downfall on
himself. With the weak end of the

Mack motioned the veteran Rothrock
to the plate.

4 REVISED batting order and
~ the belated 1887 unwilling
~ OF Buck Newsom went for
naught yesterday at Griffith
Stadium, where the reformed Phila-
delphia Athletics, under cover of a
chill, gray dust, made off with another
victory over the Nationals.
Going into the final inning Mr..
Newsom held 4-to-3 lead, and it
looked as II his debut would be emf
nently worthy Of note, inasmuch as
the Mats hadn't been able to beat the
AS this year. But Buck couldn't
stand prosperity, and the affair finally
wound up with the Macks getting a
6-to-4 verdict for their third win this
week over the Washingtons.
1t was the aging Jack Rothrock who
broke up the ball game for the AS.
Rothrock, fired by the Red Sox, Car
dinals and recently, the Reds, was
rescued from the minors by Connie
Mack via waivers. Mack sent him to
bat for Pitcher Almon Williams in the
last inning, with the tying and win
ming runs in scoring position, and
Rothrock rewarded the old gentle
man with single to left field count
ing both mates and making the score
5-4
A moment later he scored himself
when Bill Werber blasted his third
hit OF the afternoon over NeWsom s
noggin. This finished Buck, who was
waved off the premises in favor of
Sgd Cohen, who mopped up.
Williams' Bunt Fools Mats.
Mr.. NEWSOM, self-styled forgot
ten man" of the pitching staff
was recognized Immediately by the
AS. In the first inning Messrs. Lou
Finney and Werber singled in sue
ceSsion and Finney eventually scored
on fly by Bob Johnson.
Williams, the long, lanky boy who
whipped the Griffs on opening day
was lucky to survive the Washingtons
first inning. With one down he walked
Myer, Kuhel and Simmons in success
sion. Here Johnny Stone banged 4
single off Werbers glove, Myer scoring
Werber, quickly recovering the ball
tried to force Simmons at second, but
he threw wildly past Cissell and Kuhel
also scored, making it I'll. Cecil
Travis followed with another single
off Werber's glove, again filling the
bases, but Buddy Lewis drilled into a
double play and Williams emerged
from very tough spot indeed.
The AS wasted no time getting the
lead again. Brucker walked to open
the second and little Lamar Newsome
singled through the legs of without
the-E Newsom. Then, after Cissell
popped up Williams pulled one of the
best bunts on record further to un-
settle Blushing Buck.
Expecting a sacrifice, Joe Kuhel
rushed toward the plate. Williams
however, made swinging bunt past
the first baseman and Buddy Myer.
meanwhile, had rushed to cover first.
There was nobody to handle the ball
and Brucker scored. Newsome raced
all the way to third and Williams
wound up on first. A single by Finney
scored Newsome with the run that

By A. v. DAROsA

United Press Stan Correspondent)
 Lisbon. Aug. 19.-(UP)-Portugal, aligned with Nazi Germany in the Spanish civil war crisis, severed re- lations with Czechoslovakia today in a diplomatic move that was expect ed to have startling repercussions all over Europe.
 The break was made on the ground that Czechoslovakia, under pressure from an unnamed third nation, refused to make good on a gigantic machine gun order for Por- tugal.
 Just how big this order must have been was disclosed in an ofticial communique which said that Csechosloyakia offered to deliver 600 of the guns-for an army which including the air force, the cavalry and artillery totals 30,000 men.
 Word Came Early Today
 The break was announced in thu early hours of tliis morning. Within A few hours Jose Dc Costa Car. heiro, the minister to Czecfo- slovakia, was on his way to Vienna, to which he also is accredited.

RESCUE FLYERS
 ARE HAMMERED

Fairbanks. Alaska Aug. le-- (UP)-- The third day of Q northern storm kept rescue flyers grounded today and lessened the chances for finding a lost Russian airplane before win- ter settles over the Arctic.
 Dense clouds, intermittent rains here, and snows farther north. pre- cluded the search. The six flyers had been missing six days. They made their last report by radio two hours after crossing the north pole last Friday.
 Jimmy Mattern and Jos Crosson, American flyers, were waiting out the storm here, ready to take out their two-motored planes at the first break in the weather.
 They studied maps and estimated that the lost plane, which was en route from Moscow to the United States along the l4sth meridian. was probably down on an ice fioe 500 miles north of the Alaskan coast. The Russians had provisions for c 45-day erlcampment.

 When, however, wedlock Is ingti- tlted as an instrument of racial breeding-by which the lowest level of ethics is obtained--a nation is unable either to achieve national renascence or to rise to c really high cultural standard"
 The cardinal was cfnciating at the weddiig of Prince Henri of Or- leans to Princess Maria. of Bavaria. The prince is a great-grandson of the emperor Don Pedro of Brazil and hence a pretender to that noEi- existent throne. The princess is the daughter of Prince Rupprecht of Bavaria, pretender to the throne of BarvsFis. likewise no longer existent. Former King Alfonso of Spain was among the many royal people present.

Sacco, Vanzetti Story Ln
 Guide Book Is Not Pleasing.

Boston, Aug. i0.-(UP)-Only four days before the 10th anniversary of the execution of sacco and vansetti, that cause celebre today plunged assachusetts into 6 new contro- versy. Governor Hurley planned c conference in an effort to persuade WPA ofiicials at Washington to delete from the e76-page WPA Massachusetts guidebook passages relating to the case. A spokesman said Hurley believed the references were expressions of facts as inter- preted by c group, and while they may appear convincing they do not coincide with his expressions or views" Both Hurley and Secretary of state Frederic W. Cook said they had endorsed the volume without reading 1t. Cook did not think the references "belonged" in the book.
 Quick to defend, the guidebook was pr. Ray 4. Ellington. director of the Massachusetts writer's project and who will become an, assistant history professor at Smith college next month. He accepted flll re sponbibIIIky for these "niOderate statemelits": "eAcco and vanzettl had become for new generation, the cIassic example of the adMinis- tTnlion of Justice to members of sln- popular political r1inorities.~ "1t
