League leaders for the entire sea-

three weeks in May. the Browns,
accordingly to latest batting and

They have only one 300 hitter

Although presenting the only en-

them sixth, two points out Of last
place.

Browns fans. But the clubs best

five losses-is owned by Bob Mum

Rumors Nailed as Dykes Signs
Two Year Pact With Chisox
BY the Associated Press.

0y TIC AsoOClhteo EIesSs
CHICAGO, July rs. - Baseball's
rumor peddlers scurried for cover
today as James J. (Jimmy) Dykes
waved the ink dry on a new contract
extending his managership Of the
Chicago White Sox through 1945
and 1916.
The two-year renewal Of Dykes
present three-year agreement, which
ends this season, was announced
last night by Mrs. Grace Comisky
club president, to newspapermen in
Jim's presence. Dykes had signed
the new contract an hour before a
nocturnal game between the Sox
and New York Yankees.
The action nipped a swelling flow
of rumors that the colorful At
year-old Dykes was about to part
ways with the club he had managed
since May 9, 1934-an 1l-season
span that is far and away the
longevity record for Pale Hose
pilot.
Grapevine reports had Jim eyeing
three National League clubs-Brook-
lyn, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia
The most persistent rumor was that
Dykes, a native of Philadelphia and
once an infleld fixture of Connie
Mack's Athletics, would go to the
Phillies, now freshened by Du Pont
cash.
Those whisperings grew louder
after the feeble showing made by
the Sox on their last road trip
Strutting eastward in second place
Dykes charges dropped IA games
in 20 starts and struggled back to
Comiskey Park a cellar candidate.
Mrs. Comiskey was mum on terms
but smilingly told sports writer's
Dykes did not take a cut" in his
new agreement, which means he'll be
getting around $500 a year, re-
portedly his present salary.
No other Sox manager in the
clubs 43-year history served more
than five seasons and only the ven-
cradle Mack and Joe Mccarthy of
the Yanks top Dykes in successive
seasons as big league bosses.
Dykes first season, in 1884, when
he succeeded Lew Fonseca, was his
poorest, as the Sox finished eighth
Although six of Jim's clubs wound
up in the first division, none placed
higher than third His best sea-
son was 1887 when the Hose won
86 and lost SO to finish third.
