MOVE UP AMERICAN
 LEACUELADDER
BY GLEN PERKINS

united Press Staff COrrespOndent)
 New York, Aug. 20.-(UP)-Rudy York's big august bat" today had carried the Detroit Tigers to tie with the Cleveland Indians for third place in the American league.
 York hammered out his 24th home run of the season and his 1lth this month to enable the Tigers to gain split with the Bos- ton Red Sox yesterday.
 An unearned run gave the Red Sox a 4-3 victory over Detroit in the first game, but the Tigers came back to take the second, 10-0. York drove in six runs during the day, four in the second game, with five hits. His homer and two of his singles came in the second game.
 Dick NeWSome received credit for the victory in the opener and Virgil tFfre) Trucks was credited with the nightcap, which saw rookie Dick Wakefield get four hits in five times at the plate.
 The New York Yankees defeated the Cleveland Indians, 2-l, in a night contest that went 13 innings and was attended by a series of 'untoward incidents. The Cleve- land parks lighting system failed delaying the game an hour and five minutes; the record playing the Star Spangled Banner cracked stopped midway through the an- them and the game was completed in violation of league rules which state that no inning in night contest may be started after 125O a.. m.
 Joe Gordon, selDnd baseman of of the Tanks, scored the winning run on Rollie Hemsley's pinch fly to give Ernie Bonham credit for his 18th victory. Gordon had dou- bled.
 Leonard Topped Grove
 The Washington Senators streng- thened their hold on second place with a 4-3 victory over the Chi cago White SoX. Dutch Leonard knuckled-balled his way to the vic- tory by holding the Sox to four singles. Orval Grove was the loser.
 Denny Gaelhouse twirled a four hit game in St. Louis as the Browns defeated the floundering Philadel- phia Athletics, 3-0 Only one run ner ventured beyond first base on Galehouse as the Philadelphia los- ing streak mounted to 13.
 In the National circuit, the Brooklyn Dodgers trounced the Chicago Cubs, 9-2, to gain some re- venge for Wednesdays double de- feat. Curt Davis recorded the vic- tory as the "bums" blasted Chi cigo's leading pitcher, Hi Bithern. for 13 safeties.
 Giants Lose Again
 Rookie Jimmie Russell knocked in four tallies with his two homers as the Pittsburgh Pirates defea ed the New York Giants, 8-1. Wally Hebert held the cellar dwellers to eight hits in recording his eighth success.
 The. Cincinnati Reds tailed three times in the sxth inning to de- feat the Boston Braves, 7-5. Ray Starr started for the winners but was relieved by winner Clyde Shoun in the fifth. Red Barrett was the loser.
 The Philadelphia Phillies came from behind with a four-run splurge in the sixth and two more in the seventh to defeat the league leading St. Louis Cardinals, 6-5. Dick Bar rett, though knocked out of the box in the eighth, received credit for the victory. Max Lanied was handed the loss.

THREE V|CTORS| IN GIRLS SOfTBALL SCORE PLUS 20

Having had a short rest at the top of the Industrial Girls Softball league standing, Metal Hose was un- able to hold it's place because of a surprisingly one-sided 21 to 2 set back which the AMI gals ab- sorbed last night from the Inger- soll-Clock combine, paced by Eu- nice Bradley's five-hit pitching. It was Ingersoll's night to win all the way, as fine fielding by Norma Cu- colo, Rose Prelopsky and Mary Gedraitis and hard-hitting by Tes- sic MatuZokswi and Eileen Trav- CTS combined to win the game for the I-C team, which Lad 18 hits in it's favor.
 Plenty of Action
 Benrus and Waterbury Tool girls had a nip and tuck contest which finally went to Benrus by II to ' as the winners came through with a six run rally, as g hits were made in the game, F by Benrus. Rose DeLeon scored three runs with a homer, two on base; Teresa Ficeto and Mary Andrews getting three base hits.
 As expected Chase girls had little or no trouble winning from Farreg Foundry, 21 to 3, the losers getting but four hits from Marge Connors, who also hit a home run, as did Sis Mastrianni and Emma Jillson.
 Scovill girls, behind Mary Gof- fins near-perfect pitching won from Waterbury Button 20 to 1; Jo Izzo playing well in the field from the losing team. Scores:

Being of the school which always
believes in a judicious jeer now and
then-just for the sake of keeping
proportions in balance-this depart
ment tackled kindly to fellow who
chanced into the Anchor Room the
other night.
This lad, a saunterer in the best
sense, apparently, of Thoreau's
definition, calmly poked his head
more or less over Looey's shoulder
and surveyed the room with COM
prehensive glance. No dim corner
suited to purring phrases over the
hand of a beloved was he seeking.
You could tell by the CLINT which
entered his eye when he espied the
relatively brightly lit quarter deck
abaft of the piano.
He wanted light, this fellow. He
aimed purposefully toward it. He
seated himself, ordered mellowing
potion.
He pulled the novel from under
his arm and proceeded to set
tie down completely oblivious of
music, the gurglings of neighboring
patrons and even the cheese-pop-
corn proffered by the waitress.
He only wanted to read.
