After cuddling happily with the
Chicago White Sox and Detroit
Tigers In second place, the Cleveland
Indians today found themselves un-
comfortably settled in the fourth
berth in the American League.
They were given the old Yankee
treatment in New York as the Chi
sox won here and the Tigers were
postponed in Boston.
The Indians got the usual Yankee
bumps. Lefty Marius Russo hand
cuffed them with a two-hitter and
beat them, ILL, with the help of
homers by Charley Keller, Joe Cor
don and Bud Metheny.
That other than the Washington
Chicago game was all in the Amer
lean League yesterday and last
night, since the Detroit Tigers and
the st. Louis Browns wound up on
the short end in a couple of rassles
with Old Man Weather in Boston
and Philadelphia.
Over in the National League, the
Phoolish Phillies' new manager, fat
Freddie Fitzsimmons, found out the
score in hurry. His Pills chalked
up two runs for a 81 decision over

tested game continued from June S

Eddie Bratburds Pigettes and
Morris Lustine's Lusties may turn
out to be the hottest woman bowling
teams in town during the regular
season to open month hence. Both
of 'em cracked the South Atlantic
record last night in match held in
conjunction with the Silver Spring
War bond tournament.
The Lustines, hastily organized by
Lorraine GULL to challenge the
Pigettes and create tournament
special, won by 1886 to 2,765 and
may remain together. In last night S
winning lineup were Lucille Young,
Alma Mehler. Catherine Quigley
Bing Moen and Miss GULL and
seldom have five woman bowlers of
their caliber teamed before.
The Pigettes, named for Brat
burd's pork producing concern, have
performed together for some time.
Their scores last night were: Lois
Gladding, SOL: Georgia Hays, GIL;
Vickie Groggan, 500; Frances Will
son, 516, and Jessie Sacrey, COS.
Alma Mehler Sets Pace.
Alma Mehler led the Lusties with
500 and the scores of the others
were: Young, 57l; Quigley, ssh;
Moen, ST., and GULL, SAT.
Both teams breezed past the
South Atlantic record set a decade
back by The Evening Star champs
at the Lucky Strike, a score of
2,745. Miss GULL, incidentally, was
a member of that team, culled from
the leaders in the annual Evening
