PLAY SEVEN THERE
With the first game Tuesday,
the Tigers are booked for seven
games in five days against the
Yankees. They are singles on
Sept 4 and 5, a double-header
Sept s and singles Sept. 7 and s.
The Tigers move on to Boston,
Philadelphia and Washington,
where the championship might
conceivably be decided. On the
way home O'Neill'S pennan
chasers will stop off at Cleveland
for pair games.
Two games each with the
Browns and Indians will wind up
the home season for the Tigers
at Briggs Stadium. Then will
come the curtains final drop-two
games with the Browns in St
Louis Sept. % and 30.
While the Tigers inconsistent
play admittedly is not soothing
10 the nerves, O'Neil believes his
Tigers have the ability TO win the
pennant. The manager believes
Tiger power will carry the team
through 10 triumph.
TIGERS HIT HARD
The Tiger chances of building
up a sizable lead were hard hit
by the failure of AL Benton TO
hold 10 the fine pitching pace he
set at the start of the season. The
broken leg he suffered appears to
have taken something out of the
big Highlander.
A handicap equally as disastrous
has been the absence of Eddie
Mayo, the second baseman who
spanked the club TO earlier VIC
tories. Suffering from an ailing
shoulder, Mayo has been out of
the lineup for the most part Of
nearly month.
Moreover, there is Some doubt
whether or not his arm will come
around in a hurry. Red Boron
has done well at second, but the
Tigers miss Mayo'S potent bat.
Whether or not the Tigers win
the flag seems 10 depend on
Trout'S recovery from back trou-
Bile. If his recent good work on
the mound is an indication of what
to expect, it may be the Tigers
will finish much like last year
only that this fall Harold New
houSer and Trout will pitch them
TO a championship.

TURNING POINT

The turning point Of the game
and the play that sealed their
fate came in the fourth period.
Charley Trippi of Georgia, play
ing in his third All-Star game,
intercepted Roy McKay'S pass and
raced back TO the two. Trippi
tried to jam his way past the
veteran Joe Laws. but was pushed
out of bounds and hurt.
The Stars were set back five
for too many time outs. On the
first play Les Horvath, last year s
player Of the season, fumbled and
Lou Brock grabbed the ball for
the Packers on the 20.
Earlier drives had been stopped
three times by intercepted passes.
Don Hutson took one of Pvt.
Perry Moss passes on the Is and
sprinted down the sidelines for
SIS yards. turning a scoring chance
of the All-Stars into Green Bay

A||-Stdrs Fall
To Packers
BY EDGAR HAYES

Dudley Harmon of Gary, Ann Ar
Dor and the army air corps, still
is pretty fair football player. A
crowd of 92,753 fans, who paid
S221, $50 TO see the Green Bay
Packers trim the Collegiate ALL
Stars, 1877, will agree to that.
Harmon played less than five
minutes at Soldier Field last night,
but showed the sams classy run
ming that made him the most
feared offensive player in the
country during l93S-39-40.
Four times he ran with the
ball. He ran back kickoff from
behind his own goal line 10 the
27, Then he picked up II yards
and a first down on two rushing
plays.
Later in the game he was away
on his favorite sweep of right
end for AZ yards. only to tumble
and lose the ball. His romp Of
AZ yards set ne'y record for the
Collegians from scrimmage in the
All-Star contest. The old mark Of
33 yards was made by Pat Harder
of Wisconsin in 1943.
Harmon punted once for 43
yards
AIDS IN SCORE
The only score made by the
Stars came as the result OF Har-
mons two smashes into the line
that drew the defenders in close
and permitted a long pass, 1t.

lard, for 62 yards and a touch
down. Harmon place-kicked the
extra point.
The former Michigan star has
stated he'll not play pro football,
but on the basis of his showing
last night it is expected the Chi
caRo Bears will renew their efforts
TO sign him. He is their property
as result OF National Football

Of Murder
Plot Trial

Hooper murder conspiracy trail

temperatures.

saves her family washings for a

more spare time.

day, a picture was introduced as
