Boudreau quickly added:
Il don't mean to say the Yam
KEGS have any better chance of
beating us out than the Indians
have. I'm afraid Of that Cleve-
land bunch, too. A club that has
the kind of pitching they have.
has to be respected. Even If Bob
Feller isn't having such q good
year.
"As a team. maybe I fear the
Yankees Q little more. What I
feel about the Indians is that they
might be strong enough to sneak
in. While we're finishing up
against the Yankees and WASH

side on the American League
race straight from q man who
knows as much about it as any
one, probably. If Lou appears to
leave q few questions unanswered,
it is not because he does mott
wish to be helpful. He becomes
much more explicit when you ask
him about his rookie catcher, Sam
White.
"He's the rookie Of the year by|
SO far it isn't even close" Lou
enthused. "The kid is wonder
full. He's caught at least three
quarters of our games. Maybe
seven-eighths of them. He hits
the long ball and he has q great
arm. I would say that he's q bet
ter catcher at this stage than Jim
Hogan was when he broke in with
Cleveland. I think I can qualify
as a judge. because I was manag-
ing the Indians when Jim came
up."

BY the Associufed Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-Gene
Bearden of the Browns, a .2O2

has blossomed out as the major
leagues best hitting pitcher.

year-old hurler is used frequently
AS q pinch-hitter.

Star Southpaw Out Of Army.
Tucked away in a corner of
most papers last night was an
other story that may have an i'm
portant bearing on the Cards
drive to narrow Brooklyn's lead.
Harvey Haddix. a highly -touted
left-handed pitcher. was dis
charged from the Army yesterday
and will rejoin the Cards immedi-
ately. Haddix just helped pitch
his Fort Dix team into the Ma
tional Semipro tournament. In
1850 he had an 1876 record for
Columbus, Miller's alma mater.
It's not likely, but it could be
that Miller and Haddix may make
the Cards a real threat to the
Dodgers in the six weeks to come.
Giants Idle on Anniversary.
The Giants got no chance to
start another miracle on August
IL. Their scheduled night game
at Brooklyn was rained out. Hav-
ing passed the anniversary Of the
start Of the 1851 push in idle
ness, the Giants hope to launch
their 80 squirt in a day-night
double header at Brooklyn today.
Just for the records, in case
anybody starts a big push, Brook
lyn leads New York by nine games
and st. Louis by IL.
The Boston at Philadelphia
game in the National was washed
out and Pittsburgh and Cincin-
natl were not scheduled.
Rain kept both the Yankees
and runnerup Cleveland idle yes
terday. The Yanks' home night
game with Washington was put
over to make a double-header to-
day. Cleveland's home date with
Detroit also was rained out.
Red Sox Miss Chance.
Boston lost chance to gain on
the leaders by dropping a r13-
inning game to the AS, who now
trail the Yanks by only tn
lengths. Billy Hitchcock's single
scored Gus Zernial in the 18th to
top the Red Sox, 4-3, after Clyde
Vollmer's two-run homer tied the
score in the eighth.
Carl Scheib allowed 10 hits in
his route-going chore, limiting the
Red Sox to one hit after Vollmer's
homer. Al Benton. who relieved
Dizzy Trout at the start of the
18th. was charged with the loss
as Zernial singled, took second
on a sacrifice and scored on
Hitchcock's hit.
Jim Dyck took matters into his
own hands to power the Browns
to a 80 win over the White Sox
in IL innings. Dyck's first homer
tied the score in the eighth and
his second won the game for Gene
Bearden in the 18th. Bearden,
Cleveland's pennant-winning hero
in 1948, allowed only five hits in
posting his sixth comeback VIC

RY tha Associotad Rraaa

NEW YORK, Aug. 13.-The
American League, in the opinion
Of Manager Lou Boudreau Of the
Red Sox. probably is heading for
a whing- ding finish, and he
seems to feel that his club has
about as good a shot at first prize
as either New York or Cleveland.
The former star shortstop has
fooled 'em all this summer by
keeping his mixture of raw rockies
and fading veterans right up in
the race. He is stubborn in his
belief that, given a few breaks
from here on they can win it all.
He has figured it down pretty fine.
1--WE play our last six games
at home. three against the Yanks
and three against Washington,
and that's what I'm banking on, i"
Lou said. "Those games could be
the payof for us, especially if we
get some pitching help from Ellis
Kinder.
Stephens to Help.
"We'll be in better shape down
the stretch when Junior Stephens
comes back to play short in about
a week. We can use that long
ball Of his at home. He's been
out a month, ever since he col
lided with Dick Kryhoski Of the
Browns"
Asked which he feared the most,
the Indians or the Yankees, Lou
had some difficulty making up his
mind.
II guess you've got to say the
Yanks," he finally decided.
They've got the depth. all those
good young fellows on the bench,
and Stengel keeps shifting them
around to get the best from them.
Those veterans of his figure to
play tight. steady ball in the
stretch, too. A lot might depend
upon whether Eddie Lopat comes
back as q regular starter for them
If he only comes back for
the month Of September it will
give them q boost"

Custer Of One Player;
NCAA Study Goes On
By the Assoeiuted Press

LEXINGTON. KY. Aug. 13.-I
Suspension Of q University Of
Kentucky football player has
been appealed.
But suspension of a second
football player and the univer-
sity's basketball team for the
1928 Southeastern Conference
season will not be appealed.
These decisions were announced
by President Herman L. Donovan
yesterday upon his return to the
Lexington campus from a con-
ference. Executive Committee
meeting at Birmingham.
Commissioner Bernie Moore of
the conference announced after
the lengthy meeting that Ken
lucky could not participate in
basketball for a one-year period
due to the schools laxity in ad-
ministering its sports program.
Two football players were ruled
ineligible for future participation
and the school was fined $500 for
each ineligible player.
NCAA Inquiry Requested.
The university had requested an
investigation after several formerl
Kentucky basketball players were
involved in the Nationwide bas-
ketball fix scandal. The school
also requested the National Col
legiate Athletic Association to in
vestigate its sports policies.
Walter Byers. executive direc-
tor Of the NCAA, said today atl
Kansas City a subcommittee of
the association is In the process
of studying athletic policies andI
practices at the university.
"Once it has gathered all per-
tinent information" ByerS said,
"the subcommittee will file its
report with the Membership Com
mittee. It expects to receive from
Commissioner Moore of the South
eastern Conference that confer
ence's findings. Subsequent de-
velopments will depend upon ac-
tions taken by the Membership
Committee and the council of the
association"
The NCAA Membership Com
mittee Is scheduled to meet in Oc-
tober.
Kentucky's appeal in the case
Of the suspended football guard,
Gene Donaldson, means that each
member school of the conference
must vote on whether to uphold
or overrule the Executive Commit
tees ruling.
Accepted Spare Time Job.
Donaldson. considered Ken
tucky's top prospect for All-Amer-
lea honors this year. was guilty of
no more than accepting spare
time employment that netted him
less than 5000 in less than two
and a half years, DR.. Donovan
said.
"The rule. as interpreted here"
said DR.. Donovan, would mean
that large percentage of football
players in every conference in the
country would be ineligible"
DR.. Donovan said the school
was not appealing the ruling on|
Chet Lukawski because the East
Chicago, Ind. football player has
admitted accepting 5000 from al
football fan for clothing.
University officials were notl
aware of this, DR.. Donovan said,
adding. IF we had known the
boy had accepted money, Dean
A. D. Kirwan would have declared
him ineligible to play football"
DR.. Donovan said the university
would not request an investigation
of athletic practices in other
Southeastern schools, adding,
"We're going to be good sports. u
He said the university has mol
intention of withdrawing from the
conference. We're going to live
and work with these other schools
in our area to build a more whole
