Man Is Returned to Prison
For Life at Own Request

WINONA, Miss. Nc
Clure Walker, after nine years
of freedom, is going back to
prison to finish out a life sem
tence-at his own request.
Walker was convicted of muir
der in 1888 and sentenced to life
Imprisonment. He became
model prisoner and also aided
greatly in the capture of an es-
capped prisoner. In 1912, he was
granted a temporary suspension
of sentence and returned to his
home.
Recently he wrote Gov. Field
ing Wright: Il have become ad-
dicted to alcohol. When drinking
l am not responsible for my ac-
tions. I fear l may commit some
act that would make me danger
Gus to myself or others"
Governor Wright revoked the
suspension.

Caught in the Steaming heat and
double-header jam of the steam
ing American League race, even
the best pitchers are crumbling
under the strain.
Allie Reynolds, no-hit ace of
the Yankees surge, lasted only
one inning yesterday against De-
troit as New York lost a 9-8 first
game. Things were so tough that
Casey S'cngel brought him back
to rescue Tom Morgan and save
the Yanks' tWo-game lead with a
1915 edge in the second.
CleVeland'S Bob Lemon was
bombed in the sixth at Washing
ton where overworked Mike Garcia
"a 13-game winner, had to help
save an 6-6 first game. Early Wynn
failed to last in the second game,
fading for pinch-hitter in Wash
ington's 4-3 victory.
Red So. Having Troubles.
Only one Red Sox pitcher has
gone the route in the last seven
games with the Boston club home
at FenWay Park, where it is sup
posed to pe inVincible. Instead of
gaining ground. the Red Sox have
dropped 2l2. games behind the
YankS.
Ellis Kinder made his fifth ap-
pearance in a week yesterday after
Willard Nixon pulled a tendon in
his thigh! sliding into base. Nixon,
inconsistent all season with only
two complete games, was pitching
tWo-hit bali for seven innings
when hurt. Walt Masterson and
Kinder nailed down his 81 edge
over st. Louis.
After the game, the Boston
trainer said the injury would keep
Nixon out of action for a week or
10 days. Bobby Doerr, Red Sox
second baSeman, also was hurt
yesterday, injuring his left knee
in a slide. Billy Goodman shifted
to second base in the seventh to
replace the veteran. Lou Boudreau
and Walt Dropo finished the game
at first base. Doerr's injury was
described as slight.
For change, the White Sox cot
a full nine-inning job as Billy
Pierce whipped the Athletics in
Philadelphia, 4-3, to remain seven
games off the pace.
Brooklyn Pitching Pasted.
Brooklyn'S pitching also had a
rough time at Pittsburgh where
the Pirates knocked out Ralph
Branca and roughed up Clyde
King to win, 1873. Despite their
last-place showing, the Pirates
have beaten the Dodgers 9 out of

his 9th homer for the Pirates
