B. TELLER SLIPPING
 BUT WINS
By JOE REICHLER

Bobby Teller, the Cleveland In dians' MT. x" continues to be as much of a puzzle as ever to base Lall fans.
 Although he pitcned the Tribe to an important 9-7 victory over the New York Yankees last night to give the pace-setting Indians a half game advantage over the Philadel- phia Athletics, the famous pitcher demonstrated that he was not the great Teller of former days.
 Outside of the fact that Teller, for the sixth straight time, failed to go the distance. everything broke wonderfully for the Indians.
 They gained full game over each of the three chief contenders as the Athletics were beaten by the Browns in St. Louis, g. 1, and the Boston Red Sox were nipped by the White Sox in Chicago, 4-3.
 And they not only ended the Yam kees' five-game winning streak, but extended their own to six in row.
 Despite the As loss, they held second place over the Yankees by tour-tenths of percentage point.

 In WoodyGo
KetChikan TwirIer Racks Perfect Score with 18
 Fans Last Night

With the coolneSs and self assurance of a Brooklyn hurler in the Dodger Park, 12 year old Dick Hamlin of Ketchikan famed old Woody for eighteen consecutive strikeouts last night to tecome the undisputed kingpin of the woodenface hurlers. Leaving little doubt that he was the better Of the two young twirlers yesterday, Hamlin dumped the Ju- neau champ, John Jensen, by an eighteen to four strikeout margin.
 Jensen got off to a quick start by flaming his first three batters with but one ball, but after walking the fourth, the Juneau lad seemed un- able to find the range for the du-
 ration of the contest. In the second
 stanza, Jensen walked his first man
 and went down with a strike out.
 Appearing to have sighted in once more in the last frame, Jensen sent
 first batter, but fell off the mound
 when he walked his second man.
 On the other hand, young Ham lin had a great deal of trouble find ing the mark with his first tatter But with the count three balls and 1.-two strikes the sharpshooting Ham lin tossed the next one right down | the middle and was on the way to a perfect afternoon. The next four | teen tatters came up and went down without once placing Hamlin in the !. 3-2 tight spot In the last frame, the Ketchikan champ was once more faced with the heavy count, but as 1 in the first heat, he split the cen ter with the next one, and followed through to fan his next two with little trouble. A large crowd in the ball park gave the champ of Wash 'ington and Alaska a big hand as he
 walked smiling off the field. Dick plans to return to Ketchikan through the courtesy of the Ellis Air Lines early tomorrow afternoon.
 WueH IIit SOliIcSI Was oFcI, yOuiiS Jensen turned to his baseball play ling dad and said, Gee whiz, Pop, I'm sure ashamed of myself" Mark
 was quick to assure him that he had nothing in the world to be ashamed l of, and he was so right. it was just one of those days that rolls around every so often in the life of any real champion.
