Dod gers Again
In League Lead

NEW YORK, Aug. CUP) -
young left handler had it and ar
old left handler didn't. That's why
the Brooklyn Dodgers and not the
st. Louis Cardinals led the National
League today.
The young lefty was Johnny VAN
der Nicer, who is very, very bad
when he's bad, but very, very good
when he's good. Yesterday the
Reds portsider was good He hand
cuffed the Cardinals and yanked
them right out of the league lead
He allowed eight scattered hits in
pitching the Reds out of game
losing streak to a 81 triumph.
Wander Nicer was at his very best
in the third inning when the Cards
filled the bases with none out. He
famed Mize, Slaughter and Brown
in succession on 10 pitchers, all
strikes, with all three batters swing
ing at the last one. BY tanning
nine, Vandy ran his strikeout mark
to 1856.
The old lefty was Carl Hubbell,
who at 38 has seen his best days.
For eight innings last night before
52,791 at the Polo Grounds, the
Giants veteran pitched on even
terms with young Kirby Higbe of
the Dodgers, but the strain and
stress was too much for King
Carls" ancient soupbone. In the
ninth he didn't have it any more
and the Dodgers poured over the
two innings runs to break a IL tie
and score a 81 victory.
MARGIN SLIGHT
The triumph put Brooklyn back
on top by .003 points. Higbe held
the Giants to four hits, one of them
Babe YoungS homer Dick Bartell,
who doubled in the fifth, was the
only other man to get to second.
1t was Higbe's 18th triumph. Dolf
Camilli'S goth homer gave the Dod-
gers their first run, which stood up
until Young hit his circuit clout in
the seventh
Pittsburgh continued to blast its
way nearer and nearer to a con-
tending position by humping the
Cubs, 1873, behind Rip Sewell's 9
hit pitching. 1t was SeWell'S 18th
victory, and the Pirates 17th victory
in their last 20 games. Bob Elliott
had a perfect day at the plate, "3
for 81.
The Braves won their fifth
straight last night by defeating the
Phillies, 60, before a crowd of 1928
at Philadelphia.
The Yankees divided a pair with
the Red Sox but gained a half game
on the Indians who were massacred
by the Tigers. The Yanks' lead is
now liz games. The Red Sox won
the first game, 6-3, breaking Spud
Chandler's record of 20 straight
scoreless innings.
The Yanks grabbed the second
game, 81, behind Marvin Breuer's
5 hit pitching. Joe DiMaggio's dou-
BILE drove in the two winning runs.
DiMaggio also hit homer 26 in the
opener.
Jamming over II runs in a riotouS
third inning, the Tigers crushed the
Indians, 11-2. Jim Bagby, Al Mil

After many years Of vail
ant service in the North
west, one of the most IA
nous coast guard cutters
departed this week for duty
that may never bring her
back 10 his neighborhood.
Leaving behind a throng Of
memories and a splendid record
Of victories IN tussles with the
stormy Pacific. the cutter Red
wing has been assigned to duty
on the eastern seaboard.
Her regular base for years
has been Port Angeles. but she
also spent a considerable time
at the mouth Of the Columbia
as guardian Of the graveyard of
ships. II was during the latter
period that the Redwing effect
ed one of her most memorable
rescues.
In 1894. during a springtime
gale. the Norwegian motorship
Childar was blown ashore on the
treacherous sands OF Peacock
spit. So great was the force of
the storm that the Childar was
battered well onto the hump of
the spit toward the waters shell
tered by North Head on the
southwest corner OF our state.
The Redwing accomplished the
noteworthy feat Of bold seaman
ship by rounding the storm
swept spit to the equally violent
waters OF the other side and after
getting the heaviest Of haw-
sers aboard the Childar, pro-
ceeded to pull with heroic effort
until the hapfess ship was tri-
umphantly heaved clear OF the
spit on the far side from where
she went ashore
In appreciation of the deed,
the Norwegian government pre-
scented a large silver cup, which
presently reposes honorably in
the cabin Of the stalwart Red
wing.
That Is but one OF the many
incidents remembered and retold
along the waterfronts of the
northwest.
