Thump Chicago Twice

WASHINGTON, June g. up -
Aided by Weird defensive play by
Chicago's White Sox, the Washing
ton Senators swept a long double
header tdoay by rs scores extend
ing their current winning streak to
five games.
The White Sox, meanwhile, leng-
thened their string of losses to
eight under their new manager,
Ted Lyons, who succeeded Jim
my Dykes on May Is. The White
Sox haven't beaten the Senators
in seven meetings this season.
Utility infielder Gil Torres saved
the second game for the Senators
by taking over the pitching in the
ninth inning to check a White Sox
rally that had produced n run
and put men on third and second
with one out.
Torres, who pitched for Char
lotte, N. c., in 1910 and won 10
games, caused Whitley Plat to
ground out and Bob Kennedy fly
to Jeff Heath.
Buddy Lewis, out of the lineup
because of a charley horse, drove
