Newhouser's Charm
Over ST. Louis Puts
Tigers Back in Race
o By Joe ReichIer
Associated Press Sports Writer

Detroit's tough luck Tigers are
back in the running today mainly
on account of Hal NeWhouser's in
explicable jinx over the St. Louis
Browns.
Prince Hal. the No, l lefthander
in the American League, is no soft
touch for anybody, but as far as
the Brownies are concerned, he is
practically unbeatable.
Muddy Ruels cellar dwellers
bowed to Newhouser's southpaw
slants for the fifteenth straight
time yesterday as the Tigers took
both ends of doubleheader, Us
and 6-1.
In winning their fourth straight
at home, the injury -riddled Bengals
climbed into third-place tie with
the Philadelphia Athletics. They
trail the pace-setting New York
Yankees by six games The Tigers
were beaten 10 straight times on
their last Eastern road trip to drop
from the league lead into fifth place.
Paul Dizzy Trout nung up his
seventh triumph in the nightcap

finished for the Tigers and did not
allow hit in three innings.
Billy SouthWorth, astute manager
of the Boston Braves, who changes
line-ups practically with the shift
ing of the winds. allowed only one
player, Bob Elliott, to play his posi-
ton through both games with the
Philadelphia Phils.
And it was Elliott who drove in
the winning run in the first game
and who was the batting star of
the second as the Braves beat the
Phils twice, 81 in 10 innings
and 4-2
The twin victory enabled the
Braves to move into first place in
the National League pennant race,
a half game ahead of the Brooklyn
Dodgers, who split with the Giants
