game.
Results of Tuesdays games:
A tie game of 5 to 5 was played
by Dorm 3 and Dorm 6. They
battled away for seven innings on
ly to have the time limit catch up
with them. Dorm 6 took a first
inning lead of 3 runs, but in the
fifth inning both teams scored to
tie the game at 5 to 5. For Dorm
3 third baseman Gregory got 3 hits
for 4 trips to the plate and for
Dorm 6 rightfielder DuBois and
second baseman Booker each got
2 for 3.
Dorm 2 edged out a close 10
to 8 victory over Dorm 7. Wil
lard was the winning pitcher.
Dorm 7 finished their half of the
seventh inning with a 2 run lead
only to have it shattered by third
baseman Robenson of Dorm 2
in a hard hit triple with the
bases loaded.
Dorm 9 ended up on the long end
of a 13 to 7 win over Dorm 11. In
the first inning of this game 11
runs crossed the plate, 7 for 9 and
4 for 11 and with that lead pitcher
Morris stayed out in front all the
way. For the losers shortstop

American League Race Back to Normal
As Yankees Take Over First Place
Engelkin^
The New York Yankees appear
to be on their way to another
American League Championship.
With the American League pen
nant chase nearly one third over
the Yankees
||gffl | t j i[ .gil [|| * v are comfort
ably seated in
first place
with a two
game lead ov
er their near-
e s t rival the
Boston Red
Sox.
The New
York club is
■boasting this
year one of, the
m o s't potent
outfields in the majors today. Joe
DiMaggio, Charley Keller, and
Tommy Henrich make up this slug
ging garden trio with Johnny Lin-
dell around for utility roles.
DiMaggio and Keller are already
hitting their stride, but Henrich
has not yet reached his peak. Di
Maggio is currently batting .330
plus leading the league in runs
batted in. Keller is now the league
leader in home runs.
The Yankee infield which was
not expected to attract attention
this year is really coming into the
spotlight. George McQuinn recent
ly acquired first sacker is hitting
the ’ole apple at a blistering clip
so far for this season. His pres-
net batting average is .330.
At third base is Billy Johnson
who is going great guns this sum
mer. Johnson so far this season
is just over the line as a .300 hit
ter, and he is second to DiMaggio
in runs batted in with 40. He is
also a popular favorite to play
third base on the American League
all-star team this July. ■
Around the keystone bag the
Yankees have two very familiar
names, George Stirnweiss and Phil
Rizzuto. Neither have really hit
their stride this year but both are
gradually improving as the season
wears on. Bobby Brown who hit
.341 with Newark last year is ar
ound for utility roles.
Behind the plate is Aaron Rob
inson who was last year acclaimed
the best hitting catcher in the
American League. Robinson may
also be a member of the all-star
team this season. Helping with
the catching chores is an outstand
ing rookie named Yogie Berra.
The Yankee pitching staff, badly
crippled by the loss of Spud Chan
dler, has always been a weak spot
on the team. Frank Shea, sensa
tional rookie, is carrying the bulk
of the load for the mound staff.
Shea has already won 9 and lost
2 this season.
Allie Reynolds, Floyd Sevens,
Joe Page, and D. Johnson are other
twirlers who will have to come
through with more wins this sum
mer if the Yankees expect to stay
on top.
With the Detroit Tigers resting
safely in sixth place after a ten
game losing streak, the biggest
Yankee opposition will come from
the Boston Red Sox.
The N. Y. Yankees received a
letter from a 27-year-old outfield
er who announced that not only
was he ready to become a star in
the American League, but he was
safe from the draft. The Yankees
were ready to sign him up when
they discovered he had just been
released from an insane asylum!
