NEW YORK. Aug. 9. (UP)-The
American league pennant race was
far from a laughing matter to the
New York Yankees today as they
fretted under their second three
game losing streak within 10 days.
Their lead is still a Sizeable seven
games over the Red Sox but now
adays the Yanks are getting kicked
around too often for comfort.
The Yanks have lost six out of
their latest nine games. and are
desperate for some lusty clouting.
In losing to the red hot Senators
yesterday. ia, they made only seven
hits-all singles
The Griffmen in their eighth
straight victory combed Donald,
Chandler. and Russo for l6 hits.
Joe Krakauskas held the Yanks
10 six hits before he was yanked
in the eight. He got credit for the
victory, his eighth in his last 10
starts and his ninth of the season.
The Cubs threw a scare into the
National leading. Reds when
they won the opening game of a

Dean Richmond, principal Of
Holtville high school, whose boarc

Contacted in Los Angeles Tues

aware Coach Walker had accepted
the Herbert Hoover high school

in line for the position. Because
was familiar with Walkers tenta-
tive plans, however. I have already
looked over possible coaching can
didates in the Los Angeles area"
Richmond indicated he would
make his selection within the next
few days in order that his board
which will meet later this month
might approve the appointment.
Possible candidates listed by per-
sons reported to be on the inside

school star at Holtville, and more
recently regular on the use elev-
en-, and Bill Maxwell, present as
sistant coach at El Centre.
Neither of the candidates have

In Coast LeaQue

For downright dexterity the palm
must be handed today to Ralph
Buxton, Oakland pitcher, who not
only let Los Angeles down with
four hits last night but started the
prettiest triple play seen in the
Pacific Coast league for many
years. The Oaks, incidentally,
thumped the Angels, 3 to l.
Buxton's feat. in which he threw
to first base while lying flat. on
his tummy, was engineered in the
second inning, after Moore had
singled and Rip Collins had walked.
Bob Collins attempted to bunt the
runners along, but Buxton dove to
catch the ball before it struck the
ground, and while prone threw to
Levy to catch the Ripper, and Levy
threw to Lyman to nail Moore.

the best boats that could be mus
tered against her, including the
Tomahawk of that redoubtable al
so ran, Thomas Octave Murdoch
Sopwith.
The victories of Vim, with VAN
derbilt at the helm, are said to
have proved more discouraging to
British shippers than the Ameri-
cans three successive (and smash
ing) triumphs in defense OF the
Americas Cup off Newport. And
here is the reason:
When Vanderbilt licked Sopwith
in three straight races in the mon
strous class j boats in 1887 it was
proposed that the next cup extra
vaganza be fought between smaller
yachts, and mythical class X
size was suggested. In suggesting
class K contests the British admit
ted Vanderbilt's superiority at the
wheel OF the big class Us but limited
that he might not be SO invincible
with less formidable craft.
So what did Vanderbilt do? No.
thing but up and build the Vim,
IL metre job which is even small
er than the proposed class K. The
Vim is 10 feet overall, with a As
foot waterline, a II foot beam, and
packs 1916 square feet of sail. Quite
a concession for Vanderbilt from
his class Ranger, which was 1876
feet overall, rode 81 feet at the
waterline, had 20 foot beam, and
carried 7546 square feet of sail. Had
he built a class K BOAT it would
have fallen between the Ranger
and Vim in size.
After three months of battle
against him the British shippers
are about ready to concede that
Mike Vanderbilt is Father Nep-
tunes own son and could beat them
IN any size craft, from a wash tub
to an ocean liner. He has won
something like II of % races, and
has paid no worse than show mon
ey in the others, if you'll pardon
my technical nautical language.
Vanderbilt's string of victories off
the south coast of England is per-
haps the most amazing yachting
feat OF the generation. Sailing con-
ditionS are entirely different from
those over here. Strong tides run.
Winds are vagrant. Courses are
complicated. Four years ago when
Gerald Lambert took his Yankee
over there and won six races during
the season he was hailed as a
miracle man. This despite the fact
that he had complete charts and
an English pilot.
Lambert is said to have offered
Vanderbilt his charts and the
knowledge he gained OF the waters,
but Vanderbilt refused them on
the grounds that he would rather
start from scratch.
The ease with which sailor Van
derbilt has won has convinced the
British that there is little or no
use of challenging for the Ameri-
cas- Cup again as long as Mike
cares to defend it.
