Kenneth E. Lewis of Hardin,

week received information from
the New York office concerning

appropriate in connection with

The letter states:

'"AIl of these men died in

General Custer and his five
officers were covered by either
$4,000 or $1,000 policies. Upon
the proofs of death, signed by
their comrades who buried them
where they fell upon the field,
the company paid a total of
5000 to their beneficiaries.
"The claims were paid in No

Tale Of DoubIe-Cross
By the Assoeicisd Press

NEW YORK. July 26.-Two fix
ers in the latest college basketball
scandal were in protective custody
today and a f1ve-State police
dragnet was out for one of their
accomplices, principal in a fan
tastic double-cross among gam
blers.
District Attorney Frank Hogan,
who yesterday revealed that a
sixth school-Toledo University
was involved in the scandal, told
the story of the double-cross.
1t involved Nick Englisis, who
rode in the same compartment
with an All-America basketball
player; his brother Tony, New
York contact man; Jack ,(Zip)
West. a former Dutch Schultz as
sociate, and Eli Kaye, alias Klu-

II Cleveland wins the American
League pennant, the folks will
never believe it in Yankee Stadi-
um. For the Indians warwhoop is
only an empty echo in the Yanks
concrete wigwam on the Harlem
where the Cleveland team has
lost IS straight ball games since
July IA, 1850.
It was the same story last sum-
mer. After that shocking series
in Boston, where the Indians blew
TO and 12-1 leads, the team stag
gered into Yankee Stadium to lose
four in a row. The Indians came
to town two games out of first
place and finished up 51a behind
in fourth place. That was the
fatal blow.
Failure to whip the Yanks ir
New York has been almost as
costly this season. They've
dropped eight straight in 81 with
only three to play. Manager Al
Lopez is hoping his ace, Bob Eel
Ter, will be able to stem the tide
today, but the one-time fireballel
will have to beat Allie Reynolds
The last time the two one-time
teammates met, Reynolds pitched
a no-hitter and beat Bob, 10, or
Gene Weddings home run. Eel.
Ter has a 1913 record, while his
rival has lis mark.

Big John Mize was the villain
in the Indians current disaster

tough-luck pitcher.
Because Chicago snapped its
flve-game losing streak and
whipped Boston at Fenway Park
6-2, the Yankees opened up a full
game lead on the Red Sox.
Cleveland is another game back
and the White Sox are 31a off
the pace.
In sharp contrast to this strug-
gle. the National League remains

Bornee Breeskin to Be Missing
From Tepee at Redskin Games

Sam Jack Kaufman, orchestra
leader at the Capitol Theater, will
move his musicians into Griffith
Stadium this season, replacing
Barnee Breeskin and his Shore
ham Hotel orchestra at the Red
skins home games.
After putting in 13 years en-
tertaining Redskin customers from
the tepee at Griffith Stadium,
Breeskin received no contract
from Owner George Preston Mar
shall this year.
The long, close friendship be-
tween the two apparently has hit
a snag, although Marshall, con-
tacted at the pro football teams
training camp in Los Angeles,
says Barnee got no contract be-
cause he couldn't make it to re-
hearsals. Reliable sources here,
however, indicate there's more to
it than that.
To Kaufman, the entire situa-
ton has been quite a surprise.

Mats Can Reach
Couple Of Goals
By Victory Today
500 Record at Home,
Passing Of Tigers in
Race Are Objectives
By Burton Hawkins

The Mats again were reaching
for fifth place today, and also
had as an objective the attain
ment of a 500 record at home
for the season. The task of
achieving these twin goals was
given to 6-foot-4 Sid Hudson.
Sid permitted only one run in
his last start against the White
Sox, but the Mats got him none
and he wasn't around to receive
credit for the ultimate 81 con-
quest. In today's Ladies' Day
game he was hoping to make the
Tigers his fourth victim while
pitching the Mats to a 21-21 level
at Griffith Stadium.
The Washington club moved
within grasping distance of fifth
place yesterday by hanging a IA
walloping on Detroit. Paced by
Gil Coan's triple and three singles,
for a perfect day which lifted his
average to 1882, the Mats pounded
four of the Tigers pitchers for
IA hits.
Dente and Michaels Hit.
Sam Dente, who took over
Shortstop duties when Rookie
Pete Runnels became Ill with
ptomaine poisoning, supplied two
singles in an effort to regain his
job and Cass Michaels Clipped in
with three.
Coan, hitless in 16 previous
efforts, ripped off three singles
successfully, socked a triple his
fourth time at bat, then sacrificed
to improve his average five points,
while Clyde KluttZ scared to .301
with a double and single.
Don johnson, the bargain
counter buy from the Browns,
posted his sixth win. Don was
rocked for three runs in the first
inning but braced to retire 13 bat
ters in order and didn't yield an
other run until Joe Ginsberg
Itripled in the ninth and came
IacrosS on Jerry Priddy's infeld
out.
George Kell's double, a walk to
Charley Keller, Pat Mullins single
and Johnny Groth's double got
johnson of to a sad start, but the
Mats quickly took over the lead by
betting Freddie Hutchinson freely.
Hutchinson in Dudgeon.
Singles by Dente, Michaels and
Kluttz, plus Johnson's outfield fly,
gave the Mats two runs in the
second inning and they grabbed
a 4-3 lead in the third when
singles by Coan, Irv Noren, Dente
and MichaelS produced two more
runs. Dente's second hit sent
Hutchinson storming to the dug

NEW YORK. July 26.-Old
home run sluggers, like old knock
out artists, never lose their punch
Perhaps the presence of Joe
Walcott, the 37-year-old heavy
weight champion, at Yankee Sta
dium gave Johnny Mize, the 38-
Iyear-old former home run king,
an idea.
At any rate, with Jersey Joe
an interested spectator, Mize
slammed a two-run double with
two out in the ninth inning yes
terday to account for New York's
only runs and give the Yankees
la hard-earned 81 victory over
the Indians.
AS important as the win was to
the league-leading Yankees, it
was an even greater personal
triumph for Mize. The blow,
coming on the heels Of his game
winning home run Tuesday, gave
big John more satisfaction than
any Of the 348 home runs he has
produced in Is years Of big-league
activity.
'They counted me out last
year." Mize said later. "They
said I was all washed up. So they
sent me to the minors Kansas
City, to pasture.
Had to Trim Weight.
II knew I still had some good
baseball left in me, but I also
realized I was not in condition.
My weight was way up and it hurt
my timing. I made up my mind
to get in shape and fight my way
back"
Mize returned after a month in
Kansas City and played an impor-
tant role in the Yankees victory
march to the pennant and World
Series.
II weighed close to $50 pounds
early last year." Mize recalled.
