Especial to The Citizen,

NEW YORK, July New
York Yankees, riding the waves
of Joe DiMaggio's hitting streak
and their own recently-broken
home run splurge, yesterday
battled their way to a comfort
able three-and-a-half- game lead
in the American league.
Sweeping a twin bill from the
Philadelphia Athletics, 8-4 and
81, New York increased its mar
gin over the fading Cleveland
Indians when the Tribe sue
cumbed to the Chicago White
Sox, 40.
DiMaggio extended his per-
sonal streak to 48 games. He
collected four hits in the first
game against the AS and pound
ed out two in the nightcap. Bill
Dickey and Red Rolfe clouted a
homer each in the first tilt.
Dedication services to Lou
Gehrig, their former first base
man who died recently of a
strange disease, were participat-
ed in by the Yankees.
Chicago lost no time in get
ting the jump on the Indians,
banging Al Milnar's slants for
four runs in the opening round.
The veteran Ted Lyons went the
distance for the chisox, annex
ing his 24lst victory of his long
career.
A pair of rookie pitchers mas
tered the Washington Senators
in both ends of a doubleheader,
SO and 4-3, for the Boston Red
Sox. Their Rosox teammates
gave them excellent support
afield and produced runs at OPP
perfume moments.
A six-run rally in the fifth in
ming of a twin bill curtain-rais-
er gave the Detroit Tigers a rs
triumph over the st. Louis
Browns, but the lowly Brownies
bounced back to claim the after
piece, So.
Cincinnati Reds shutout the
slipping st. Louis Cardinals, 80,
behind the three-hit pitching of
Elmer Riddle. The victory was
the ninth straight for the Geor-
gia rookie.
Hanging up his 18th win of
the season, Kirby Higbe handcuff-
ed the Boston Braves with five
bingles as his Brooklyn Dodger
teammates marched to a So tri-
umph and continued domination
of the National league. Pete
Raiser homered in the fifth.
Ram stopped the aIIeIplece III
the seventh with the count knot
ted at 4-all.
Rain also halted the New York

Here's How NOT To Welcome
A Newcomer In Your Town
by Porter.

gestion that the person feels he is
doing the newcomer a great favor.
"You may find it a little hard
to get acquainted here"
That is about as warm-hearted
and hospitable as slamming door
in strangers face.
''Have you had a chance to meet
many people yet?'
That is likely to make the
stranger feel like lost soul who
is sitting around waiting to be
noticed.
HAS Mrs. So-and-so been to call
on you YETI"
If she hasn't, the stranger is
sure to feel that she has been
sighted.
Any of those remarks is all right
if you don't care whether or not
you are being cordial, and if you
aren't bothered about making the
stranger think, What a nice,
friendly person"
But if you really want to be
neighborly, skip every one of those
remarks, invite the newcomer to
your house and have some con-
genial people there for h e r to
meet. That's about the only eff
fective way of making stranger
feel welcome.

BY RUTH MILLETT

Many people, when meeting a
newcomer to their community, are
apt to fall into a routine pattern
of stereotyped remarks which,
while harmless enough, are often
tactless and embarrassing. Here
are somme of the things they say.
Though they're not obviously rude,
they'll stamp the speaker as lack
ing in consideration and under
standing. So let's skip these:
well, how do you like our town
by now?"
There's only one answer to that
question, ''Fine." And yet it is
the first question nine out of ten
people ask a stranger.
'I'm going to call on you one
Of these days. I always try to call
on newcomers.
There are two reasons why that
is tactless. 1t sounds like dreary
duty rather than an anticipated
pleasure, and it isn't very flatter-
ing to know one is being called on
because a person ALWAYS calls
on newcomers, and not because
he seems especially attractive.
II REALLY am going to call
on you one of these days"
With the emphasis on really"
there is more than a slight Sug-
