Roger (Doc) Cramer, Tiger out
fielder who will be 40 years old
next month. still boasts the best
throwing arm in the American
The veteran Cramer gave an
eloquent demonstration of his tai
ent with a rifle peg from center
field that doubled a player at the
plate and broke up a threatening
Indian rally in the ninth inning
of a twilight game at Briggs Sta
dunn last evening.
AS a result, the Tigers whipped
the Indians, a 10 3, in the first
of a three-game series before a
crowd of 20,351 roaring customers
and took a firmer grip on first
place in the torrid league race as
the Yankees went down 10 defeat
before the Red Sox.
SCORES WINNING RUN
Moreover. the handsome Cra-
mer bagged two hits, one of which
scored the deciding run.
Zeb Eaton, who held the Indians
TO one hit in FIVE innings before
weakening. was officially the win
ming pitcher, the North Caro-
linan's second victory against no
defeats.
Les Mueller and Fr an X
tStubbyl Overmire also pitched
for Detroit, Mueller going out in
the ninth when he showed signs
! of wildness.
In all, the Indians collected
only six hits of the three Tiger
chuckers.
Steve Gromek, the Hamtramck
boy, was the victim of the Tigers
ire, his first defeat in five games
at the hands Of the local crew
He had beaten the Tigers twice
this year, twice last season and

LURE OF I5LAND5' WEEKEND FEATURE
 AT 10TH CENTURY

Columnists of the United States have had many playful remarks to make about the luscious Margie Hart, first lady of burlesque, who comes to the 20th Century Theatre tonight and Saturday as the star of Lure of the Islands," the Monogram South Sea romance in which she celebrates her screen debut.
 Walter Winchell 1t was who first dubbed Margie "the poor mans Garbo", and who has referred to her at other times as the Yankee Nude1l Dandy" and Americas strip-pippin."
 Still keeping to the upper brackets. Dorothy Kilgallen has characterized the statuesque Margie as the five and-dime Dietrich;" while Frederick Othman. Hollywood correspondent for the United Press, refers to her as the lady who earned a fortune with a zipper in reverse" Irving Hoff- man wrote recently They would have us believe that Margie Hart signed for cooking course, and spent the first day peeling-onions. And Jimmie Fidler quipped in his column, "Margie strips the light fantastic" Others have character ized the sparkling burlesquer as Queen of the Undie- World" and The Look of the Month"
 But Robbin Coons, of the great Associated Press syndicate, topped the procession when he spoke of the Missouri-born Margie ia print as "the girl from the Show-Me State who found out that the boys like to be shown"
 The cast supporting Miss Hart in Lure of the Islands" includes Rob- ert Lowery, Gale Storm, Quinn Will jams. Ivan Leberdoff, and Warren Hymer. Lindsley Parsons produced the colorful film. with Jean Tar brough as director.
