Gives St. Louis
First Defeat
BY LEO MACDoNELL

ST. LOUIS, April 18.-Behind
Hal Whites impressive pitching,
Detroit Tigers shut out the st.
Louis Browns here today, 40. to
even the series at one apiece.
1t was the first defeat for the
Browns in five games played this
season and il was the best pitched
game of the season by a Tiger
pitcher.
The 22-year-old White, recruit
from Buffalo. where
he won 16 games and lost IL last
season, yielded but seven hits. no
more than one of which came In
single inning.
On the other hand, the Tigers
combed the pitching of Bob Mum
Grief, the Browns young star who
pitched a three-hitter against the
White Sox the other day, for IL
hits, seven for extra bases.
Homer Is Mighty
One of the extra base clouts
was a home run by Barney Nc
lCosky, which came in the third
inning and was driven to the roof
of the right field stands, where
Charley Gehringer socked a like
knock in the World Series of 1884.
Doc Cramer contributed two
two-baggers and Jimmy Blood
worth, Ned Harris and Birdie
ITebbetts each one double to the
Tigers smuggling.
Bloodworth also contributed the
fielding gem of the day when he
turned in theatrical one-handed
scoop of a blazing grounder off
Don Gutteridge's bat. But Harold

The Tigers jumped into the lead
with a run in the first inning when

ter. moved to third on wild pitch
and later scored after Laabs
shared McCosky's drive to center.

ALBERT DEkkER IS FEATURED AT
 10TH CENTURY
Among inc living" Is One of Those Thrilling
 Horror Films

Long tagged in Hollywood as someone to be hated, Albert Dekker gets his chance at a sympathetic role in Paramount's Among the Living" at the goth Century to- night. To make the transition really curious, Paramount. in ripping off Dekker's devil horns, made Among the Living one of the chilliest horror films on record.
 Dekker's opportunity to be liked is tempered, however, by the fact that he plays a dual role that of a rich industrialist named John Baden, and that of Paul Baden, Johns hopelessly insane twin broth CT. Paul is a homicidal maniac who commits two murders and attempts a third
 According to all advance reports, Dekker does grand job with by all odds the most difficult assign ment passed out to an actor by Paramount in a long. long time. He is supported by Susan Hay ward.

LITTLE FOXES I5
 PRESENT FEATURE
 CAPITOL THEATRE
Betfe Davis Is Starred in Lillian Hellman's
 Famous Play

woman's greed and selfishness forms the unusual theme of The Little Foxes" Bette Davis new starring vehicle for Samuel Gold wyn at the Capitol. In one of the most compelling roles of her career, Miss Davis brings to the screen the domineering Regina Giddens of Lillian Hellmans famous play, and makes of her an unusually realis- tic character
 How Regina schemes to become rich through a cotton-mill project, savagely tries to force her husband to aid her, and finally, after sac rificing him and her daughter on the altar of her ambitions, black mails her less adroit brothers to achieve an empty success, makes for gripping drama.
 Contrasting sharply with the gay comedy of her recent 'The Bride Came C.OD.," the new offering gives Miss Davis exceptional op- portunity for her talents as a dra- matic actress. Herbert Marshall is cast as the disillusioned husband. Teresa Wright, the new "discov- cry" and Richard Carlson handle the romantic element
