MAHER, OLIVER
DODGERS STARS
Tigers Lose 5-3 Decision
Indians Tackle Cubs
This Evening

The Dodgers defeated the Tigers
5-3 last night at st. Mary's School
grounds In an Immaculate Concep-
ton Softball League Tussle. Triples
by Maher and Oliver accounted for
all the Dodgers runs, the former hit
ting his with the bases loaded In the
fourth and the latter coming through
in the fifth with two abroad. After
five scoreless innings the Tigers
staged a rally In the sixth and only
pushed across three runs, the rally
was halted by Joe McKenna who
caught O'Keefe's fly ball and made
a beautiful throw to the plate to
catch Cream for double killing,
DAILY, the next batter flied out.
Maher, making his second appear
ance for the Dodgers, chalked up
his first win and ave the Dodgers
their first win In two games In the
second round. True dropped his
nth game for the Tigers out of
seven games. The Tigers have vet
to win game in the second round.
The Indians are out after their
third straight game tonight, when
they play the Cubs who have one
win against no losses. The score by

The Yanks had one of their best
days in weeks yesterday when they
beat the Senators, go. Not only did
they beat the Senators but they
licked their long time nemesis,
Dutch Leonard, master of the
knuckle ball An even happier aspect
of the game was the fact that Lefty
Gomez made a strong gesture at
staging a comeback. Gomez wasn't
quite able to go the route, but he
lasted until the eighth and received
credit for his first victory since
April 10.
To add to the Yanks' encourage
ment, President Will Harridge ruled
that the White SoX's 10 victory
over the Bronx Bombers on June 20
must be replayed.
Protest Upheld
In other words, the Yanks had
one of their defeats taken out of
the lost column and now have a
chance to put it in the win column,
Harridge upheld Joe McCarthy's
protest on the ground that Out
fielder Solters had not legally held
a foul fly hit by Bill Dickey. Solters
caught the ball but dropped 1t when
he reached up to prevent his cap
from falling from his head.
The Tigers forged into the Ameri-
can league lead by slugging out
1919 victory over the White Sox.
Red Kress' homer in the eighth
proved to be the winning tally.
Cleveland lost its third straight
and slipped to second place when
the Browns beat the Indians, 5-3.
Vernon Kennedy's homer with one
on in the ninth enabled the right
handler to win his own game.
The athletics and Red Sox divided
a doubleheader, with the Mackmen
taking the opener, 4-3, and Boston
the nightcap, 1873. Although kayoed
in the seventh Ed Heusser received
credit for the first game victory,
Homers by Jimmy Foxx No. 49, and
Joe Cronin featured the Red Sox
14-hit attack in the nightcap.
Dodgers Gain
Brooklyn's Dodgers climbed into
first place in the National League
with a half game advantage over
the Cincinnati Reds. Tex Carleton
held the Philadelphia Phillies to
three hits for a Al Dodger victory
while the st. Louis Cardinals blank
ed the Reds 40, in a night game
behind the seventh pitching Of Bill
MCGEE.
The Cards raped Paul Derringer
for IL hits and handed the Red
star his third straight setback.
Terry Moore's triple and a single
by Mickey owen gave the Red Birds
their first run and enough to win
in the fourth.
In the other two National League
games the Bees tripped the Giants,
So, and Big Bill Lee recovered some
of his old time form to pitch the
Cubs to 100 victory over the
Pirates

Baer Pathetic

Max Baer-"I'm sorry they

Max Baer-Tony Galento fight was
the comedy hit of the year,
If watching sodden, sickly fat,

pulp is humorous, then you would
have rolled IN the aisles at Galento.
If the spectacle of man stagger-

letting from his face and eyes, and
with his mouth mumbling incoher-
encies, is ludicrous, then you would
have held your side at Galento.

At last all his sins had found him

He not only lost the fight, but he

Jersey City, N. j., July B.
{ (UP)-Facts on the Max Baer-
Tony Galento fight:
Attendance--22,711.
Gross receipts--$9S,OO4.
Winner meets Joe Louis In
September for World heavy
weight title.
The peculiar ending Of the
fight revived an old argument
on the settlement Of bets. The
issue Is whether Baer won ON q
technical knockout in the sew
enth or eight rounds.
Galento was still on q stool
in his corner when the bell rang
for the eighth. When he failed
to come out and continue fight
ing, the referee stopped the
fight and awarded IL to Baer
on a technical knockout.
The official announcement
from the ring by announcer
Harry Balough said: "Galento
fails to respond TO the bell for
the eighth round. The winner,
by technical knockout, is Max
Baer."
A similar controversy arose
when Jack Dempsey won the
heavyweight title from Jess
Willard at Toledo.
