BY LEO MACDoNELL

ST. LOUIS. Aug. 29-Harold
Newhouser today had become the
first pitcher in the majors 10 win
II games. He has lost eight.
The willowy lefthander achieved
the distinction when he pitched
the Tigers TO victory over the
Browns, 10-1, with mastery per-
formance before 1881 customers
here last night.
The triumph broke the Tigers
losing streak, which had reached
three, and enabled them TO hold
their one and a half-game league
lead over the Senators, who beat
the Athletics.
At the same time, Steve
ONeill's boys cooled off the
Browns. who had swept a five
game series with the White Sox,
thereby horning into the title
scramble. The Tigers have now
won 13 games against four losses
in competition with the Browns
this year.
Besides holding the Browns TO
four hits, Newhouser struck out
nine men. He has now whitfield a
total of ITS for the season. He
struck out 1877 during 1914.

A mighty drive that carried
nearly 400 feet into the lower
deck OF the right field stands,
Cullenbine'S four master came in
the opening inning OFF Kramer
with two out and Cramer and
Greenberg on the runways.
After Kramer. in the second in
ming, walked Paul Richards, Zol-
dak took over on the mound for
the Browns. In an attempt to
sacrifice, Newhouser forced Rich
ards and Skeeter Webb hit into a
double play.
With two out, Gene Moore and
Frank Mancuso each singled in
the home half Of the second, but
Newhouser bore down and struck
out Zoldak.
There was one out. when in
the third, Cramer started things
rolling for the Tigers with a single
through the box. Greenberg fol-
lowed with his homer, a line drive
over $50 feet into the left field
.bleachers, the Doc scamperlng
home ahead OF him.

KRAMER IN A RUT

Jack Kramer, who started for
the Browns, pitched only one Of
ficial inning. Kramer has lost his
last seven starts and il was his
fifth defeat as compared with one
win over the Tigers this year.
Sam Zoldak, Earl Jones and We'll
don West also pitched for the
champions.
Behind Newhouser, Tiger slug
gers put on a show of power that
included three home runs. The
homers accounted for seven OF the
teams nine runs. To this heavy
Shelling they added finesse in a
couple of artistic squeeze plays.
The homers were bagged by
Roy Cullenbine, Hank Greenberg
and Bobby Maier. They were the
fourteenth and eighth for Cullen
bine and Greenberg, respectively.
1t was Maier's first homer in the
big leagues Maier also hit two

Schedule Hearing
Tests for Wayne
County Students

Hearing defects have been found
to be a definite problem among
school children. Such defects con-
stitute a handicap to the children
In their educational training. Many
of these defects, when discovered
in the early stage can be corrected,

carried on during January and Feb
ruary. A schedule for this program
will be announced from week to
week.
Children found with apparent
hearing defects during this survey
win. at a later date, be given an in
dividual recheck by the use of pure
tone audiometer. When the actual
condition has been determined the
parents will be advised regarding it
and recommended to consult their
physician as to the physical correc-
ton of the condition. The schools
will also be notified of the findings,
so that their cooperation may be
used.in helping the child adapt him
self to get the best results from the
teaching program.
In connection with this survey,
two sound films will be available
for adult groups, such as Parent
Teacher Associations or Civic Clubs.
