So sorry has been the showing Of the

Moreover, the club owners have been

their heroes balk at "thenf papers"

Their winning streak ended at six
straight and the Indians gone to search
for happier hunting grounds, the Sen

Stadium with new enemies in the Chi
cago White Sox.
There was q time when the White
Sox were the most feared band Of ball
players In the American League. That
Is, they were the most feared by the
Grinmen. This was during 1896 and
1887, when the White Sox almost ran
the Mats out Of the circuit.
To date the jinx has been blasted.
Running upon evil times the Sox are
sixth-placers and so far they have
dropped seven out Of 10 games to the
Washington firm. With Wes Ferrell
primed for today's opener and Monte
Weaver and Harry Kelley ready to
complete the three-game series the
Mats are fairly confident of starting
another winning streak.
Fairly confident about sums it up,
though. Until noon yesterday the Sen

in Wednesdays ball game was at first
believed to be only superficial but when
Cecil reported yesterday it was pain
fully swollen and now it begins to look
as If Travis won't get back into the
lineup until next week.
Mats Lack Old Punch.
Ossie Bluege, of course, needs nc
apologies for his work at shortstop as
Travis substitute. Still, when a ball
club loses its top hitter-a $50 swatter
it is bound to hurt. Travis, never
renowned as q run-driver-inner, hac
batted across six runs in his last eight
games and had moved to third place

no mood for light repartee In fact,
there was deep-rooted suspicion that

Harder Too Good for Mats.
The Grif1s never really were in the
game. In the first inning, with two

hit homer of Dutch Leonard to give
Cleveland 2-to-0 lead. The Tribe
never lost 1t. Leonard yielded two
more runs in his six-inning term, and
the Tribe got its last tally OF Joe
Krakauskas in the eighth. Pete Ap-
pleton pitched the ninth.
Harder kept the Mats hits well scat
tered. Not until the eighth did the
Harrismen make more than one hit in
an inning and not until this round did
they get a man as far as second base.
Simmons finally prevented white
wash when he slammed his homer to
lead OF the ninth. But the next three
men went out and the Grifl's second

snapped. Travis probably would not
have turned defeat into victory but
there was a dolorous inactivity in the

LEFTY Wins 14TH

BUGS Tie on Wild Pitch, Then
ScOre-Errors Beat Giants.
Yanks Are Lucky.
BY SID FEEDER,
Associated Press Sports Writer,


They had Lefty Grove in q hospital

rumor started the rounds that old
Nose may not pitch any more this
year.
OF course, there's no definite word
yet that the greatest southpaw of his
generation is on the shelf. and first
reports from physicians indicate
things may not be as bad as at first
suspected. But when a pitching arm,
particularly a 38-year-old pitching
arm, can't even hold ball, let alone
fire it across, you can look for almost
anything.
It would be the toughest kind Of a
break for Lefty, for Tom Yawkey,
and, most OF all, for the Boston Red
Sox, If the ailing soupbone that sent
the Great Grove to the hospital yester-
day should keep him on the sidelines

finish. With the campaign just about
half over, and Lefty showing no signs
of letting up, it's reasonable to as
sumo he might have won % games,
which. they'll tell you, is fair to mid
dim flinging.
It was positively weird the way It
happened yesterday. There was Lefty,
going along great, tossing shutout ball.
All Of q sudden. in the fifth inning.
his salary wing folded. There was no
muscular reaction. He couldn't even
grip the ball.
"I've never had such an experience
before" he related afterward. Physi-
clans wouldn't even hazard an opinion
until, as they explained, they COM
pleted long diagnosis and extensive x
ray examination.
Bucs Add to Loop Lead.
The unfortunate collapse of Lefty's
arm was the top development Of big
league program that saw the Pitts

Of the Giants in the National League

The Pirates scored twice in the ninth
