After HitIess Spell

NEW YORK. Aug. 5.-A depres-
sion has caught up with the hitting
business in the major leagues.
At the moment there no longer is
a 400 slugger and the National
League leader is on the bench for
not hitting
During the week Joe Di Maggie,
the Yankees star, slipped to not
so-modest .399 percentage and Nor
rie Arnovich of the Phillies folded
completely, going hitless in % times
at bat and finally getting a rest to
protect his mark at .35l.
Even under these circumstances
there were no ambitious batters in
a position to oust them from their
topmost perches and the ranking Of
most of the other leading batsmen
in both the American and National
Leagues underwent few changes.

and a relief job is not one to trust
with youngster Of 18 years. AS for
Carrasquel the Venezuelan seems
to have lost his early-season effec-
tiveness.
Alex made his first start in
month yesterday and was pounded
for eight hits and four runs in five
innings. Only sensational diving
stab by Jimmy Bloodworth in the
fifth round kept the Sox from scor-
ing more.
Carrasquel Has Tailed Off.
The Mats figure that Carrasquel
isn't quite up to major league stand
ards. He looked good early in the
season, but because, it is thought,
he had pitched during the winter
in the Cuban League and was
month ahead of the other
hurlers in training. Harry Kelley,
the other pitcher still on the Griffs'
roster is unlikely to see any more
action this year He has gone to Hot
Springs to recover from torn knee
muscles and pulled muscle in the
groin.
How soon the remaining seven
pitchers will receive any help from
farm hands is conjectural 1t seems
to depend on how the Springfield,
Greenville and Charlotte teams
make out in their own flag races.
If they are in play-offs they will
need the Bucky Jacobses and Early
Wynns, who otherwise will come up
for fall trials.
After spotting the Sox a 4-to-1
lead, the Mats began to come back in
| the fifth. when Buddy Lewis hon.
cred with a mate aboard. In the
sixth they tied it at A and forged
ahead in the eighth. 5-4. But in
Chicago's halt of the ninth Joe
Haynes gave up the tying run, chief
ly by throwing the ball away, and
Appleton came out to give another
good relief performance.
Pete finished the ninth in fine
style, carried on in the tenth, and
then Charley Colbert opened with a
triple and scored on Bloodworth s
fly, which fell between Radcliff and
Rosenthal for a single.
The Sox still hold quite an edge
over the Mats for the year, though.

Poor String
Topples Dodgers for
His 18th Win; Tribe
Can't Stop Yonks
BY JUDSON BAILEY,
Associated Press SPORTS Writer


Lots of people have been waiting
for the Cincinnati Reds to crack, but
by now it ought to be clear the only
cracking the Reds care to do is
crack a whip over the rest of the
National League.
With the durable Bucky Walters
in the saddle last night the Reds
ripped through the Brooklyn Dodg-
ers, 5-3, and quickly rinsed away
the bad taste of a pair of losses to
the New York Giants earlier in the
week.
1t was Walters 18th victory, his
second within week and his eighth
straight With this kind of pitch
ing rock for ballast it's hard to con-
ceive of Cincinnati capsizing.
For several days the team has been
missing three cylinders-Bill Werber,
Ival Goodman and Harry Craft-yet
it still is rolling and has yielded
no appreciable ground to hopeful
pursuerS.
The 28- year = old right handler
pitched steady, unspectacular
eight-hitter in the night test against
the Dodgers. The only time he was
in trouble was in the sixth after
two were out, when Brooklyn
punched a walk, two singles and a
double for two runs. Dolph Camilli
contributed the other in the ninth
with homer.
Cards Rally Nips Phils.
However, the Reds had provided a
two-run working margin in the first
two lnnings-Walters himself bat
ting in one run with a double-and
an 1l-hit attack, coupled with
Brooklyn's sievelike defense, made
this comparatively easy to maintain.
The second-place st. Louis Cardi-
mails coursed from behind to beat the
Phillies, 9-8, in 13 innings for their
sixth successive triumph. After
spotting the tail-enders a seven-run
advantage, the Redbirds finally flew
into action. Ducky Medwick dou-
bled home the tying run in the ninth
inning and then pounded the VIM
ming tally across with another dou-
BILE in the fourth extra stanza.
Another training contest was
the 1l-frame affair which the Giants
gave to the Pittsburgh Pirates, 3-2.
After Mel OFT had hit his goth home
run of the season with mate aboard
in the first, Harry Gumbert lost con-.
troll in the seventh, walked in one
run and left the bases filled for an
other to score on a double play.
Then, in the 18th, Cliff Melton filled
them again with a pair of passes,
and Fern Bell singled run home
Claude Passeau bested Lou Fette
in tight pitching battle at Chicago,
with the Cubs nosing out the Bees,
10. Passeau gave only four hits
and no bases on balls.
Indians Are Yanks' Cousins"
The world champion New York
Yankees greeted their Cleveland
cousins with 5-4 victory. 18th in
Is games with the Indians this year.
Oral Hildebrand and Marius Russo
gave the Tribe Shit diet, but
three of these were home runs. and
except for two errors, which made ali
but one of the Yankee runs un-
earned, the story might have been
different.
Opening a series at Philadelphia,
the St. Louis Browns broke their
losing streak with 81 victory at
the expense of the Athletics. Bill
Trotter gave the Brownies the bene-
fit of 7-hit hurting job and this
was all the hard-hitting st. Louis
gang needed.
The Red Sox-Tiger game was post
poned to make a Sunday double
header.

Why, you can take a kid OF q

Loane went to bat nine official
times, struck out on four occa-
sions, and hit five balls for easy
outs. Griff and the Mats still
are trying to figure out that $40
average.
"The least I could do for the
