in the rear of his car. He stopped
and found two 20-millimeter anti

"a consecutive shutout innings. He
boosted the circles to that figure last
night, limiting the st. Louis Browns
to two hits as the Mats captured q

Masterson, who never won more
than five games a season in a war
interrupted major league career
dating back to 1899, already has
accumulated six victories this year
and is coasting along with highly
commendable 1913 earned run av-

average Walter had last season.

He was horror to behold on the

runs in 1924 innings. Once he walked
four Boston Red Sox batters sue

runs in two innings.
Now he is the reformed fellow
