In Lanham Coin Race

Mike Joseph of Philadelphia, who
now drives the Offenhauser car
owned by John Giacofci of Wash

coming the leading money winner
at the West Lanham midget auto
races this season. Last nights triple

and final was the second time in
three weeks he has scored a sweep.
His winning time in the 25-lap

broken oil line kept him out of all

BALTIMORE, June 5.-Where
are all the kids?
In the semifinal of the 45th Mid
die Atlantic amateur golf cham
pionship today it's 4l-year-old Ro-
land Mackenzie against 30-year -old
John Quinn In the upper bracket,
and 39-year- -old Ernie Caldwell
against 31-year-old Dave Ewell in
the lower.
Mackenzie won this tournament
in 1925, Caldwell in 1882. Ewell was
runner-up last year. and Quinn. the
tournament medalist, is a COM
parative stranger to sectional
competition.
Without the shots he had at his
command when he was an interna-
tionally prominent golfer. Mac
Kenzie called on an unbeatable
standby-experience-to get past
two rounds yesterday over his
home course"-Five Farms.
Two down and three to play In
the first round against Bob Har-
rington of Frederick, and one down
and three to play in the quarter
final against Billy Shea, Mackenzie
played the rugged finishing holes in
even par on both occasions and won
both matches on the 18th hole, ! up.
Defeats Former Pupil.
1t was the first time Mackenzie
and Shea had played together since
Roland was pro at Congressional
and Shea was one of his star pupils.
In those days. Mackenzie used to
spot Billy one and two up each
nine, but no more.
The golf pro came out in Mac
Kenzie after his match with Shea
yesterday. Patiently, Roland took
Billy aside and explained how Billy
was sacrificing distance with an
obvious hitch in his swing. 1t
seems Shea is taking his club back
only half way and can't snap out
of it. If Roland had given the
impromptu lesson before the match
Shea might have beaten him. Shea
defeated Eddie Johnston IN the
first round. l up.

The American League lead, which
has changed hands In two previous
Philadelphia Cleveland series was on
the block again In Shibe Park today.
The Indians moved into Philadel-
pl1ia for four games with Connie
Mack's amazing AS who have
fought of every sign of collapse.
Currently Cleveland has an eight
point margin over the Athletics. On
the other hand, the AS have won
more games than any other major
league team.
They're All Even Now.
The first time the two clubs met
Cleveland was in first, the AS In
second. Philadelphia won both
games In the series and took over
the lead. Philadelphia was on top at
the start of the second series. The
lead didn't last long. Cleveland,
playing at home, won two in row
and jumped into first.
It's been just that close all the way
This set, the first to run four games,
could be the break.
Cleveland suddenly exploded for
S runs after IA scoreless innings at
Washington last night and whipped
the Senators, 5 to 0 in 15-inning
thriller.
Philadelphia rallied for three
runs in the seventh inning to turn
back the last-place Chicago White
Sox, 4 to 3. Mike Guerra's double
brought home the winning run and
gave Lou Brissie his nth victory Of
the year. Brissie had entered the
game in the top Of the seventh.
The New York Yankees whipped
Detroit, 7 to 4, in spite Of Dick
Wakefleld's pinch-hit home run
with two aboard. The Wakefield
blast knotted the count at "A In
the top OF the seventh, but Johnny
Lindell put the Yanks ahead with
a round -tripper in the home half
of the same inning. Frank Hitler,
making his first start, recorded his
first victory while Dizzy Trout was
charged with the loss.
Red Sox Win a Pair.
In Boston the Red Sox won their
arst double header since Labor Day
last year, downing the st. Louis
Browns, 1914 and To.
In the National League the New
York Giants moved game and a
half ahead of the runner-up st.
Louis Cardinals by beating the Gin
cinnati Reds, 5-4, in day game,
while the Cards dropped 10 de-
cision to the Brooklyn Dodgers in a
night game at st. Louis.
Hank Sauer kept the Reds in the
game with two homers, his 18th and
18th Of the season, top output in
either league.
The third-place Pittsburgh Pirates
also lost ground to the Giants, fall
ing two games off the pace as a
result of their 1917 loss to the Bos-
ton Braves in a night game at
Pittsburgh.
In a day game at Chicago, the
hustling Philadelphia Phillies turned
back the Cubs, To.

18th Ken Keltner opened with a
lusty double off the left field barrier
with none out and Walt Judnich

Hogan on an easy fly to Earl Wooten
in center, famed Pinch hitter Ray
Murray and Eddie Robinson
grounded to Shortstop Johnny Sui
livan, who stabbed the ball back Of
second base and crawled to the bag,
forcing Judnich.
Outstanding plays became routine
In the 18th inning, after Robinson
had singled, Catcher Jake Early
contributed the nights flashiest ac-
ton when he made a remarkable
diving stab of Bob Kennedy's low
foul fly.
Joe Gordon rescued Relief Pitcher
Bob Muncrief from defeat in the
18th when the Mats had runners on

It was Tom Ferrick, scored or

victory. Tom walked Muncrief ano
Robinson successfully to start the

Dale Mitchell then lashed single

was on. Lou Boudreau singled
across Peck to blast Ferrick from
the mound and Cleveland hammered
Dick Welteroth brutally as Gordon
tripled, Keltner singled and Jud-
Mich tripled.
NAT NOTES: The Mats didn't

Washington prospects of vault
ing into the first division over the
week end are brighter than a cluster
of kleig lights. Despite that thrill
saturated heart breaker last night
with the Cleveland Indians, who
dealt the Mats SO defeat with a
l5th-inning outburst before throng
of 29,555, Washington today was IN a
spot to maneuver INTO fourth place.
In the wake OF the league-lead-
ing Indians, Chicago's hapless White
Sox invaded Griffith Stadium today
for the opener of four-game series
and the Mats extended fond greet
ings. Chicago currently is tenant
ing the American League basement
and Washington has figured prom
inently in placing the White Sox
there, sweeping the four games
they have played. Meanwhile,
fourth-place Detroit, half game
ahead of Washington, will be bat
ting the power-packed Red Sox
at Boston.
Manager Joe Kuhel was prepared
to toss a collection of crack pitch
ers against the White Sox, who were
to face Early Wynn today. Walter
Masterson and Sid Hudson will be
sent to the mound in tomorrow's
double header, while Ray Scar
borough will be employed Monday
night.
Haefner Displays Class.
Pitching currently is the least
of Kuhels problems, for last night
little Mickey Haefner, unleashing
one of the more glorious games of
his career, left the premises after
IL innings with no better than
scoreless tie to show for his STIR
ring duel with Bob Feller, who re-
tired after II innings.
That the Mats couldn't capitalize
on Haefners shit pitching will
rank as one of the seasons disap-
pointments to local fans, for five
times while Mickey was in the
game Washington moved runncrs to
second base. There they were left
for want of a timely hit which
would have sent the winning run
across.
Haefper was superb on the three
occasions when disaster threatened.
In the fifth inning he eased out OF
