Tanks Stop Winning Streak—
The White Sox have been going
strong, but their ten-game wirm.ng
streak ended last week-end when the
New York Yankees took them for a
ride with a 10 to 3 score.
Five Homers in One Game—
Stattie overcame an eight-run leal
to defeat Portland last week-end In
a slugfest, 10 to 0. The game wa«
marked by five homers, including
Fred ay Muller's last in the tenth in
ning. which decided the game in Se
attle’s favor. During the game Mike
Hunt of Seattle got his 17th .i. . h
drive of the season, and retains the
imnte-run leadership of t
in the contest wotli teams
tal of 36 hits; Seattle r-.ni. ng ! •
and Portland 17.
Braddock Exresses Confidence—
Iraddvek observed his .T!»t
birthday Jure 7 and expressed
confidence ir his ability to suc
cessfully defend hi- title in h
approach ng battle si:h the
Brown Bomber of Detroit.
Going After Heavyweights—
John Henry; Lewis, f Phoenix, Ar
izona, champion in the light r.eary
weight pugilist c divi- n. h -
classed his class and now ca-;:: . a
speculative eye over the heavy t..
field. The Phoanix Phantom practic

How Are You Betting? —
It won't be long now—only - ur
days and we wiii -ee r.-yw n:..;:,
the German took out of L Ytheih
er the Bomber had any;. g to ; -c
or not in the Schnu .rg a
question. Maybe the Te.: a
little of the heart out oi the Black
Boy but I hardly think so, Ir.
I think that today he is a tetter mar.
than ewer, but still, he la;ks whjt it
takes to handle Braddock. Anyway,
my money is staying with the cr.am
pion Jim Braddock plans n hanging
on to that belt like a drowning mar.
to a straw and it is going to tak •
some real fighting to even shake his
hold. The two big fell, ws ...
give the fans the fight of the year.
The Black Boy flunked one test v.i\,-n
he let the German draw the curtain
on him and he is determined to re
deem his lost prestige ir; next wr?ks_'
bout. He might redeem himself and
come close to winning the r.sit— -t
not quite. Braddock did a little step
ping before 30-odd newspapermen and
about 200 fans after three weeks t
private drilling fc r his ti*4e bout
with Joe Louis in Chicago June 22.
The Champ’s legs idle fv m rir.c
warfare for two year=, r- spouted
perfectly in ten rounds of fighting
with four sparring partners.
