Rainiers were blanked until the
seventh when Blattner's error and
hits by Les Scarsella and Gllly

NEW YORK. June 6 (UP)--A
wholly unexpected turn of events
the past ten days has transformed
the American league pennant race
into ding-dong every-man-for-
himself brawl with six clubs mixed
up in the embroglio.
Cleveland, which threatened to
run off with the flag, has turned
sour. The Indians have dropped 8
out of their last 10 games. If it
hadn't been for Bob Feller, the
Tribe might have lost ten in a row.
Their pitching staff has been shot
full of holes and this has completely
demoralized the entire club.
The gap from first to sixth place
is only four games. The seventh
place Browns, liz games from the
top. are as near the American league
lead as the fourth place Reds in
the National league. Even the
Browns. under their new leader,
Luke Sewell, might edge their way
into the pennant scrap They've won
three straight and seem to be COM
ing. Only washington seems out of
it and improved pitching might
give even the Senators a shot in
the arm.
This scrambled state of affairs
has resulted from the unexpected
strength shown by the White Sox,
Athletics and Red SoX. The White
Sox are only one game out of first
place and have consistently shown
the leagues best pitching.
Even more surprising is the Ath-
letic's drive, which has netted them
