Home Of Hot Doq7

Incidentally. ST. Louis claims
origin of the hot dog. There's a
house in the Mound City. re-
carded as its oldest residence,
which bears plaque that states:
There IL q tradition that the
wieneruurst was introduced to
81. Louis from here. A. L.
Feuchwanger. a st. Louis
sausage peddler In 1893, started
the practice OF selling q wiener
In a split bun-popularly known
throughout the United States to-
day as the hot dog"
Known as the Jean BaptlSte
Roy House, after an early owner,
the residence, erected in 1929,
was acquired by the city in 1911
for nonpayment of taxes.
There is a claim, which is not
given much credence, however,
that some of Mr.. Feuchwanger's
original wienerwurstS are still
being sold as hot dogs at various
ball parks.

As Browns PuNG
A Squeeze Play
BY LEO MACDoNELL

CHICAGO. May z Steve
O'Neill, here with his Tigers for
a four-gane series with the White
Sox, today praised Harold New
housers superb pitching perform
ance against the Browns in ST.
Louis yesterday.
Harold won't lose many OF
those kind Of games" the Tiger
manager explained.
With the veteran Denny Gale
house outlasting Newhouser, the
Browns edged out the Tigers, ! 10
0. in spectacular pitching duel
in which there was little 10 choose
between the two.
A smartly executed squeeze play
won for the Browns in the ninth
inning after the two teams had
been held in check for eight Bit
terly contested innings.
There was one out in the ninth
when George McQuinn drove a
triple to left center, setting
the stage for the scoring play.

Starting right AT the wire, the
NankS have eliminated the Boston

So Tar Boston has won only four
games. three from the Philadelphia
Athletics and one from the YAM

10 seven victories scored by the
Yankees through yesterday when
the champions swept A double

first inning on, after rookie Tom
Byrne had started by allowing the
Sox all four runs in the first.
In the past Boston was supposed
TO have hitting and no pitching.
and this season banked on pitching
TO carry through for lack of
plate power, whereas seemingly
the club now lacks both hitting
and hurting. This probably is the
Itipoff on one contender. The Yanks
have to worry only about the rest,

EARLY EVIDENCE

There was evidence in the first
inning of GalehouSe'S effectiveness.
Joe Hoover started tho game with
a singing single Of Don Cutie
ridges glove but Ned Harms was
retired on an outheld fly and
Denny struck out Dick Wakefield
and Rudy York, Detroits power
hltters. That IS, York is A power

rently, his power has been turned
