BY LESLIE AVERY

United Press Staff Correspondent)
 New York, Aug. 2.--(UP)--Joe Die Maggie, slusging sophomore outfield- CT of the New York Yankees, stood today on the threshold of Q new home run record-a mark set by Babe Ruth ten years ago.
 Jolting Joe, who came to the nlaJ- ors from the San Francisco Seals last year, has 6 one game better chance of reaching Ruth's 1927 mark of 60 homers.
 Ruth hit his 3lst home run that year in the Yankees 90th game, leaving him GA tits to clout go more. Joe banged his 3ist in the Tanks 0lst game yesterday, but because of two tied games which will have to be replayed, he ahs 65 contests left.
 Besides his homer yesterday, the 23-year old Italian collected q single and double in three official trips to the plate. He scored three runs and drove in three more as the Yankees blasted the St. Louis Browns l4-5. The Tanks got l7 hits, Lou 0ehrig hitting for "cycle"-home run, triple, double and single.
 DiMaggio Is now challenging 0ehrie for the American lague bat ting mark with an average of .S7S, five less than the iron man.
 Sox Take Two
 Despite winning, the Yankees saw their league lead trimmed to five games when the runner-up Chicago White Sox took a pair from the Philadelphia Athletics, 4-3 and 5-S. The Detroit Tigers slipped, absorb ing an ll-4 shellacking from the Boston Red Sox in the curtain rais- CT, then battling to 2-2 deadlock in the finale, called ct the end of the lth to conform to Bostons Sunday closing law.
 Bob Teller, Cleveland's farmboy strikeout king, won his first start of the season, permitting seven safe- ties for a li-2 victory over Wash ington. Teller, whose only other win came in Q relief role, famed nine.
 Tn the National league, the Chi- cago Cubs swept the series against the second place New York Giants, winning 5-4 with George Stainbacks ilth inning pinch single deciding the issue. Three of the hits al- lowed by Charlie Root before Larry French relieved him in the eighth were home runs, pair by Mel Ott; another by Danning.
 Pittsburgh drew to within 1 l-2 games of New York, beating the Boston Bees, 8-4, with iS-hit at. tack including a homer. by Al Todd.
