After pitching five sensational
innings, in which he held the
Clevelanders to two hits and
struck out eight of them, Harold
lNewhouser lost control. With
three runs in each of the sixth
and seventh innings the Indians
broke up what had started to be
a brilliant duel between New
houser and Al Milnar, both SOUTH
paws.
TROUT TO RESCUE
Dizzy Trout replaced Newhouser
in the seventh, later being lifted
for a pinch hitter and giving way
to Hal White, who finished. Mil
mar went the route, bagging his
second win Of the season.

came in the sixth when Roy

 Aged men and women and chil- dren, 1t was said, fearlessly put out incendiary bombs and the fires they caused, and worked ct repair irg damage.
 A five-day-old edition of the Lem ingrad newspaper Pravda which reached here described some of the raids and said:
 No. Panic Tn Ranks
 "Nelther bombing nor Shelling has caused panic in our ranks"
 A war communique ridiculed Ger man claims that 380,000 prisoners and 5T0 tanks had been captured east of Kiev, but added soherly:
 "A fierce struggle continued on the Kiev front. Doubtless the Ger man invaders possess there, numer- teal superiority. So far 1t is hard to predict tho outcome of this struggle. The Germans certainly plan to capture thousands of pris- oners and hundreds of tanks. But this plan is still to be carried into practice and the German desire alone is by far insufficient for this purpose. Tho substance of the wit less lies of the German Fascists is that they pass their plan for real ity,"

YOUTHS MAY HEED
 COP FROM NOW ON

Motor patrolman Conrad Barll's order to move along" to e quartet of youths on the corner of North Main and Cooke streets last night fell on unreceptlve ears of Ralph Biondi, 10, Of li6 Wall street; Charles Covlello, 9. of 1858 Oak street; Louis Biondi. g, of 2l3 Wal nut street, and Domenic Scalzo, a, of f55 Oak street.
 But Municipal Court Prosecutor William K. Lawlor said the youths realized they should have hardened to Officer Barils warning. He ex- pllaned the youths had good rec- ord and background with the ex- ception of one who had motor vehicle violation record.

 Another special Nazi communique claimed the total of prisoners taken in the Kiev pocket hos risen to 402,- 900. Fierce cossack cavalery coun- terattacks and attacks by Russian parachutists on Hungarian lines In the Ukraine were admitted.
 Moscow revealed that big fires have been started in Leningrad by German air and artillery attack and that aged residents of the city have been rnobilized for 1lre-fghting duties. The Russians ridiculed the German claims of prisoners and guns captured in the Kiev fighting but admitted that the Germans had numerical superiority in that region.
 For Q third night in succession Moscow was raided by the German luftwaffe.
 The Russians were said to have succeeded in beating of the initial Nazi attack on the Cr!mea in which German parachutists were used. The British said the Crimean ter- rain made the German attack dif- flcult.
 one Moscow report said that in Joint operations of Royal Air Force and Russia units on the eastern front in the last few days % Ger man planes were shot down with Q loss of one British and one Russian plane.
 Wallace Carroll, United Press London correspondent, transmitted another Of his dispatches on the war in the east, revealing for the first time e detailed account of the life and functions of the much.dis. cussed Soviet political commissars in action with the Red army.

 Buns Get Welcome
 The Buns were due in on Q train from Boston. Some 10000 singing, yelling Dodger fans were ct the sta- ton to meet them, carrying signs that read: Our Buns Done It., ''Molder De Yankees" "Durocher for Mayor, "Camilli for President"
 Then the Buns stepped of the train, and, brother, they really looked like buns. Pitcher Johnny Aliens shirt had been torn off. No- body's hair was colnbed. They had cut of each others neckties just below the knots. Coats and hats were missing and nobody cared. There was the faint, delicate aroma of vintage champagne in the air, Seems the boys had been having Q celebration Of their own on the way down on the train.
 A hundred police tried to cut an aisle through the mob for the Be- loved Buns. It was no 20. The crowd poured over the police like Niagara over the falls. What few articles of clothing the Buns still had on their backs were shredded.
 And there in Grand Central sta- ton the ultimate tribute was paid to the Buns. Mrs. John McGraw, widow of the former Giants man. ager who was the No. 1 Dodger hater of all time, was present to greet the team and waved white lace handkerchief at them. Finally Got Away
 Finally the players got into cabs and the crowd surged out of Man. haitian and back to Brooklyn. A parade started down Flatbush ave- nue, but 1t was just a rehearsal for the one that apparently is going to be held later. Plans were underway today to stage real victory cele- bration. It will consist of a long march through Brooklyn with bands playing on every corner. Mayor Fiorella H. LaGuardia has post poned appointments in Washington on Monday to take part.
 No ball game for the Buns to- day, and maybe it's just as well. The players don't feel like playing and the customers don't feel like sitting still.

 Mrs. Owen, whose husband is a Bum" catcher, said she had been looking at the hat in Boston for months and bought 1t yesterday just before the crucial game.

 The initial German assaults to. ward Bryansk were reported res pulsed some days ago. They were followed, lt was said, by . new ct. tack from Pocheu, 40 miles south. west of Bryansk. This was alsc beaten off.

 ''Red tanks, air force, cavalry aIlc infantry rushed boldly to meet thil new threat" said the Russian re. ports, "and came to grips with the enemy at TrubchevSk, administering crushing defeat.
 'Srhe Germans were likewise man. handled at the villages of Knob and Novovasilevskoe where General Pol. tentstein, after crossing the Desns with the German 2oth motorized di- vision, was thrown back, leaving thousands of dead in the river and on the banks.

 Four large fortified villages or the Leningrad front were recap tured by Russian counter attacks, ( dispatch to the Red Star said.

 Reports from Russia, German and neutral sources today indicated that the Germans still were from lt to 20 miles from Leningrad itself London said that Berlin reports oi fighting in the suburbs apparently meant rather distant suburbs, but 1t was admitted in Moscow that the battle now raging was at the gates" of the city)
 The Russian counter -attack that gained five miles was one of severa thruetS this week designed to break up dangerous German air and lard assaults. One attack reported yes. terday gained six miles for the Rus- sians who took several villages and railroad station.
