Feller Falls Victim
To Yankees Power Cana
Champs Score Two Runs In
Ninth Frame To Triumph
Over Indians, 5 To
BY JUDSON BAILEY

NEW YORK, June 7-tR-T n e
world champion Yankees first en-
barrassed and then defeated the
fiery fastballer, Bob Teller, today,
scoring two runs in the ninth inn
ing to overtake the Cleveland In
dians 5 to 4.
The Yankees startled a big week
day crowd Of 31,30 as well as the
Indians, by stealing home against
Teller in the second inning, and f.
nally overwhelmed him with four
singles IN the fatal ninth.
The struggle was an exciting if
cratic hurting duel matching Fell
er against Marvin Breuer a
Bump Hadley of the Yanks, with
the latter pair holding the Indians
to five hits.
Cleveland's first hit was Hal
Trosky's 18th home run in the Sec
ond inning and three of the Wis
ltors' other blows were crowded
into the third inning for three runs.
Meantime, Feller had his fast
ball working well and received
spectacular support. After giving
up three runs in the first two
frames, he steadied to hold the
champs to two hits and one run
until the ninth.
Feller's fault today, however
was wobbliness with men on base.
In the second inning he was caught
hat-footed as George Selkirk, who
had doubled and reached third on
a fly, raced home while Teller
went through his complicated wind
up.
In the seventh Joe Gordon walk
ed, went to second on a wild pitch
and scored on Tom Henrich's pinch.
single. In the ninth Gordon singled
and stole second, from where he
scored the tying run on B a e
Danlgren's single. Then Frank
Crosetti raped a hit back of third
and Red Role lifted a single to
short center for the winning run.
The defeat kept Cleveland out of a
virtual tie for the American league
lead and ended a six-game winning
streak for Teller, who now has
Won eight and lost three. He had
beaten the Yanks twice before. l

Marquard started his 10 . con-
secutive winning streak on April
IL. 1912 and it ran until July 3.
His was the first for the start OF
The season. However back in the
8O's Tim Keefe, of New York, turn
ed the trick, starting in June.
But topping them all is the feat
of A.. G. Spalding, Of Boston, back
in 1875 who had a seasons record
of 81 victories, which included "a
games and 22-games winning
gtreaks. But that was another day.
Getting back to Walters. it seems
a pity that he didn't get in the
pitching game long before he did.
He started baseball playing as a
pitcher in 1929 with High Point.
N. C. The next year with Provi-
dence he went to the infield and
he hung around third base until
after a stretch with the Phillies
he was prevailed upon to try
mound work.
He did, gradually getting better,
until he reached his peak last year.
You can still bet on it that Walters
will be up at the top as n OF
the greater pitchers of the day.
This and That
June 20 is the date for Arturo
Godoy's second meeting with Joe
Louis. . The fisherman went Is
rounds with the champ in their
first meeting a few months back
but the experts, remembering what
Louis does to his opponents when
he meets them the second time,
are not thinking SO favorably OF
Godoy's chances. The Eastern

There is no answer now, nor perhaps in the future
to the question. Nevertheless, $7,O45 is lot OF

Recent Santa Cruz County Fair

Carrying numerous Illustrations,
the Arizona F'armer-Producer Of
Phoenix. in an article in it's issue
of October 26, gave much rubtc-
ity to the recent county fair at
Sonoita.
Said The Producer:
There are not 25 people in the
settlement; it has one lone tele-
phone line: there is no electricit-
except for a few scattered gas
driven plants
And if it were net for the one
combination general store and ser-
vice station, there wouldn't even be
a spot to hang the name of the
place: Sonoita.
"Yet, for a quarter Of a centur7.
this little fork in the highway g.
miles f. ON anywhere-has been the
scene of the Santa Cruz county fair
playing to an average gate Of a.
600 folks each year!
"Herc is an Arizona epic Of COM
munity enterprise, vim, ,vigor and
vitality, unsurpassed anywhere for
it's elements of quality and show
manship.

county fair, which has just passed
into history at Sonoita was another
