Bobby Feller and his Cleveland
Tribe have cooled off Connie Mack's
Athletics and wrested the actual
American League lead from Phila-
delphia.
BY a mathematical freak, the In
dians slipped into first place Tues
day night when they really traileo
the AS by half a game. No longer
is there any freak about it. Felle1
took care Of that.
The fireballing Highlander, who
was the only American Lacquer to
win 20 games last season, hung up
his fifth victory last night by trim
ming Philadelphia, 6-l. with three
hits.
Feller's brilliant pitching per-
mitted the Tribe to sweep the series
from the AS, who came into town
on a red hot spree after winning
doubleheader in the Yankee
Stadium. They moved on to Detroit
in second place.
Last nights crowd of 1881 saw
Feller retire the side in order in
seven of the nine innings, while the
home club routed Bill Dietrich in a
f1ve-run fifth.
Hal Newhouser got back on the
win path after being knocked out
five straight times when he hurled
netroit tn Al decision over BOS-
ton. Hal tied a record when he
started four of the Tigers six double
plays.
Vic Wertz broke up IL game
when he homered off Ellis Kinder
with two on in the last of the ninth
Pat Mullins homer in the fourth
accounted for the other run.
The New York Yankees finally
got a route-going Job from Lefty Ed
Lopat, ex-White Soxer, who al.
lowed IL hits in taking an 8-4 yer.

Prince Georges Hamilton
Hot in Quest of PGA Title
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

ST. LOUIS, May 20.-Prince Geor-
ges Golf and Country Club OF
Landover, Md, which made splash
in the golf world with its recent
National Capital Open, may have
struck it rich again in the signing
of Bob Hamilton as its touring pro.
Today Hamilton was off to
promising start toward his second
National PGA championship. Nov
ing into the second and final round
of qualifying play he was dead
locked for the lead with Ben Hogan,
also a former PGA champ. each
with a 5-under-par S. Hamilton
won the title in 1914 and Hogan
in 1916.
Hamilton flashed the niftiest
series of shots in the first round
with an eagle and two brides on
successive holes that gave him a
4-under-par 80 on the incoming
nine. He Clipped from well of the
green into the cup for an eagle 2
on the 18th and lifted another shot
into the hole for birdie 3 on the
18th. Many of his other approaches
were slightly short. but dead to the
pin.
Hogan Hot With Putter.
Hogan's steady putting kept him
even with Hamilton, the mighty
mite using only 20 strokes on the
green.
National Open Champion Lew
Worsham of Washington, D. c., and
Oakmont, Pa, sadly of form, shot
a IA, which left him a stiff assign
ment to land among the 63 who will
