 New York, May 28-(UP)-There waS considerable mouthing last win- ter among the large group of former Cleveland ball players in the Ameri- can league about what they persona ally were going to do to the indians this season.
 So far it's turned out to be noth. ing but lot of talk except in the case of Bruce Campbell, Cleveland, 30, who never has been known to boast or say anything derogatory about anybody. One of Campbell's best friends Is a member of the In- dianS, and most Of the rest have c high regard for him.
 But when the Tigers play the 1n- dians, Campbell levels with both barrels to murder his former team mates. Twice in the last two days Campbell has beaten the league- leaders with his dangerous bet. Monday he doubled in the ninth with the score tied at 3-S to give the Tigers Q 6-S triumph over the Tribe.
 Yesterday he hit two homers-Nos. 5 and 6-which drove in four runs and the Tigers again thumped the Indians, 0-6. His first homer came in the second with the bags empty and his second In the seventh with two mates aboard, the K. o. blow of e flve-run rally.
 ROWA RAaNUed
 schoolboy Rowe was the winning pitcher, getting credit for his secs ond victory, but his batting was more important than his pitching. He hit Q homer and drove in an. other run with c single. Johnny Corsica came to Rowe's rescue in the seventh. Al Milnar was rapped for 10 hits In 6 2-3 innings and charged with his fourth loss.
 The Indians retained their four game lead inasmuch as the White Sox, even with John Kidney in the box, bowed to the Browns, 6-2. Rookie Bob Munerief allowed only six hits to win his second start. It was Rigney's first defeat In his tlast four starts, and his second of the year. Homers by Roy Cullenhine and Joe Grace( with one on) caused Rigneys downfall,
 Rufflng Through?
 The Yankees won Q wild and woolly game from the Senators, l0-8, but the victory wasn't en- couraging because Red Ruf1lng couldn't hold Q 0-1 lead. It was the fourth time in his last five starts that Ruffing wilted. Joe DiMaggio hit homSer No. [ with two mates on.
 The Red sox and the Athletics swapped punches, Boston winning the opener, 6-2, and Philadelphia grabbing the nightcap, 1l-i. Dom DiMaggio got "three for three" in the opener. Ted Williams hit homer No. 6. But the Red sox were held to three hits by rookie Phil Mar childon in the nightcap in which Wally Moses and Sam Chapman homered for the As.
 Casey in the Box
 Brooklyn hattened the Phillies again, 60, making the eighth straight time the Dodgers have beaten Doc prothro's club. Hugh Casey allowed seven hits and win his sixth game. Casey was the first Dodger pitcher to 90 the route in the last 10 games. Dolf Camilli, Dodger first baseman retired in the sixth inning with an injured log.
 Carl Hubbell pitched and batted the New York Giants to c 2-l vic- tor yoVer the Boston Braves before i7.00o at the Polo Grounds first night game of the season. Hubhell pitched the last two innings for the Giants and was credited with his second win of the year when his single with two on produced the winning run in the ninth.
 The Cards won their eighth straight and held their 2h game lead over Brooklyn by shading the Cubs, ga, before i6,o40 ct Sports mans park last night. Johnny Mize, sidelined with 0 sore finger, pinch- singled with the bases full to score the winning run for the Cards In the ninth. The Cubs loss enabled the Reds to move into fourth place.
