New York, Sept. 10--(UP)-The
Brooklyn Dodgers, although fright
ened O bit, were within half game
Of the Cincinnati Reds in their quest
Tor second place today.
Roaring into the stretch Of the 1913
season, the Dodgers have won 16
Of their last 10, games, a record,
which, II compiled earlier in the sea-
son, might have made the Brooklyn
club the 1913 opponents Of the New
York Yankees In the world series.
In achieving their current prox-
unity to the runner-up spot, the
Dodgers defeated the Philadelphia
Phillies, 7-6, with Les Weber re-
ceiving credit for the victory. Homers
by Augie Galan and Billy Herman
enabled the BUNS" to Withstand q
ninth-inning rally by the phillies
and emerge victorious. The Pills
routed rookie Rex Barney, the
Dodger starter, in the fourth frame,
and Weber came in to pitch shut
out ball until one visiting tally
crossed the plate In the ninth In
ming.
The Philadelphia Dodger game
was the only activity in the National
league.
Easy for Yanks
In the American league the New
York Yankees defeated the Boston
Red Sox, 11-0, with Fordham Hank
Borowy receiving credit for his 18th
victory. The Yanks started with q
three-run lead, but Borowy, wobbly
at the start, permitted the Sox to
tie 1t up in the fourth frame. Dick
Newsome, who in his last start
against the league leaders limited
them to five hits, was charged with
the loss. Two unearned runs put
the Yanks in front in the fifth
frame for q lead they never relin-
pushed.
The Detroit Tigers and Cleveland
Indians split pair. The Tribe
copied the opener, 16-3, with o 16-
hit attack against three Detroit
hurlers. AL Smith recorded his 18th
triumph Of the season when he
stified the Benagls with seven hits.
Virgil Trucks was charged with the
loss in spite Of the home run Jimmy
Outlaw, making his first appearance
for the Tigers, hit In his third APP
pearance at the plate. Oris Hockett
hit q single, q double and q triple
for the winners and Roy Cullen
bine had three singles.
3 for 5
The Tigers came back with q
1913 decision In the nightcap. Dick
Wakefield, one Of the American
leagues top hitters throughout the
season, got three singles in five ap-
pearances to pace the 12-hit Tiger
attack on three hurlers.
Hal White tossed seventh ball in
the second game to receive credit
for the decision. Allie Reynolds,
the first Of three Cleveland pitchers,
was charged with the defeat.
Philadelphia, st. Louis, Washing
ton and Chicago were not scheduled

His wife tells with pride that
he was the youngest member of
Admiral Byrd's expedition to the
South Pacific to seek advance
bases. His reputation as an at
torney specializing in interna-

to the Bureau of Aeronautics in
1888. The drive to Washington

Today two lovely children are
doing their best to distract their
mother from her work. Susanne,
a lovely 2-year-old with a smile
