Winter Gas Shortage
lis Feared as Result
|Of Berlin Blockade

The supplying of blockaded Berlin
ny air has caused the Air Forces
TO increase immediate purchases of
aviation gasoline by one-fourth, and
there are indications that the move
might affect domestic supplies this
winter.
While the increased purchases
were OF high-test aviation gasoline
an official of the American Petro-
leum Institute pointed out the do
mestic situation Is tight, and when
you increase purchasing in any
quarter it just has to come from
somewhere else"
The institute previously had said
the domestic heating fuel supplies
this winter would be 100000 barrels
snort OF needs and that there might
be shortages in some areas.
The purchases of aviation gaso-
line were stepped up from 7,215 900
barrels to 9,115,000 barrels during
the next six months.
Telegram Requests Bids,
In a telegram to Is major oil sup
pliers requesting bids for the addi-
tlonal supplies, the Armed Services
Petroleum Purchasing Agency said
the present crisis in Berlin has Gre
ated a demand for greatly increased
quantities of aviation gasoline in
Europe, and the armed services ur-
gently require 100000 barrels" of the
high test fuel during July, August
and September, in addition to pre-
viously stated requirements.
! The agency added that an addi-
tional 100000 barrels would be
needed during October, November
and December when flying con-
ditions in Europe presumably would
cut down the air lift operation.
! A request for 10000 barrels to be
staggered over the next six months
had been received previously.
Will Level Off Next Year.
Additional purchasing will level
of during the first of next year.
an official said.
THE lifting of additional GUAM
titles of gasoline Is of the utmost
Importance to the services, and 1t
is urgently requested that bids be
submitted at the earliest possible
date" the agency added.
Presumably, additional gasoline
also will be needed for the opera
ton of the two groups of B-29
Superfortresses recently dispatched
to England by the Air Force.
The western air lift into Berlin
so far has not been able to fly
the daily requirement of 300 tons
of coal into Berlin. The best day
so far has brought 600 tons into
the city. During 24-hour period
ended at 4 pm. yesterday. an esti-
mated 1855 tons of supplies were
flown into Berlin in 484 United
States and British planes.

LEGION AND MOOSE IN DECISIVE GAME,
 BASEBALL TONIGHT

M. P. Mullaney said today that good advantage of the present sum- shine would be taken when the Moose and Legion square off at the ball park starting at 6:30 o'clock to- night in one of the seasons final games.
 Tonight's game. postponed from July 27, could be deciding factor to the second place standings as up with nine wins and eight losses the Legion and Elks are now tied each. The Legion pulled into a tie yesterday when the Douglas club renounced it's final game of the season with the Legion.
 A win tonight by the Legion would give them a half-game lead over the Elks for second place standing, but the Elks could once more tie up the figures by dumping the Moose in the seasons final which may be played tomorrow night. :. weather permitting.
 Win or lose, the Moose cannot be shaken from first.

 DROPS FROM
 FIRST SPOT
By JOE REICHLER

The Cleveland Indians staged one of their biggest days in history last night, yet were knocked out of first place in the whisker-close American League pennant race.
 Held to a split in their double header with the lowly St. Louis Browns, the Indians dropped into second place, two percentage points tehind the idle Philadelphia Ath- letics.
 Beaten 8-4 in the first half of the twilight-night twin bill, the Tribe bounced back to bury the Browns, under a 26-3 avalanche, but the damage had heen done. Aroused by the first game defeat, which dumped them out of first place for the first time since Aug. 2, the Indians went on the warpath once the lights were turned on, scalping five St. Louis hurlers for 29 hits, good for AS total bases. It fell only one short of equalling the League hit record of 30 set by the New York Yankees, July 28, 1923 The Major League record of 31 was set by the New York Giants in 1901.
 Four home runs were hit by the Indians, pitcher Gene Bearden, Larry Doby, Jim Hogan and Walt Judnich hitting circuit blows.
 Bob Teller relieved Bearden on the mound in the eighth when the Indians were ahead 26-1 and gave up two St. Louis runs in the ninth.
 The Boston Braves gained full game on the Brooklyn Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals by defeating the Dodgers 2-1 in thrilling pitch ing duel in Boston. They now lead the Dodgers and Cards by four full games.
 The Cards were beaten 3-2 by the Pirates in Pittsburgh when Wally Westlake singled with two out and the bases full in the last half of the ninth to drive in the tying and win ming runs.
 The Braves also won in the ninth. Tied at 1-1, the Braves counted the winning run when Ralph Branca let loose with a wild pitch, allowing Sisti to cross the plate.
 Warren Spahn went all the way for the Braves, allowing only five hits. It was his ninth victory.

 Juneau Soap Box champ having a great time during the days pre- ceding the big derby next Sum- day. This year for the first time the boys are housed out in the country at the YM.CA. camp This is a great improvement over the former custom of keeping them in town at the hotel. At this camp, they are well supervised and kept busy with various activities which give them a chance to re- lieve their pent up suspense over the coming race.
 Justin spent the first night at the hotel because of his early ar rival and, next day, moved out to the camp. Today, I visited him there and can confirm the opinion that keeping them at camp is a great thing. At the camp, this afternoon, each champ had his pie ture taken again while being pre- sented with miniature gold color ed rubber tire by the Akron Mayor. After this they all made for the nearby lake and went swimming The cars have now been inspected and tomorrow the boys go to the Derby course to do any work need- ed on their cars and to take their cars through the trial heats.
 Tonight there is entertainment at the camp and Saturday after noon the boys go to beach and amusement park where Jimmie Stewart from Hollywood will en- certain them. The city fathers and the rubber company officials will fry hamburgers and hand out soda pop.
 The champions go to the Akron Rubber Bowl where they will see football game by the Akron Ban tam players, none of whom weigh more than ninety pounds. Sunday morning religious services will be held at the camp. At noon, the champions leave for Derby Downs and the big race"
 Blanton added that Saturday morning General James H. Doo- little would be host to the Soap Box champs at breakfast. Jimmy Dcolittle says that he has been looking forward to this years Der by since the pleasure of attend ing last year.
