PAGE TWO NEW RECORD ot T BY JIMIVHE FOXX Drives in Nine Runs As Athletics Defeat Cleve land Indians By EDWARD J. NEIL (Associated Press Sports Writer.) ‘ There’s a new brilliant shining . today in the bonnet of pink cheeked Jimmie Foxx, a new Am erican league record of nine runs “batted in one game added to the - walloping achievements -of the " nmew king of baseball's sluggers. . As the old dynasty of Babe Ruth . fades slowly, bhalting only for occasional outbursts such as last fall's home run orgy in the World Series and the spectacular display of the All-Star game in Chicago, the wonder of Foxx, the easy "going farmer boy from Maryland’s somnolent Eastern sho' steadily ‘Tises. . He hasn't the flare of Ruth, this . 26-year-old barrel-chested horse _hide buster home run maker coax ed from the hind end of a plow nd shpiped to Connie Mack nine -‘;ears ago as. part payment on the wdebt of gratitude he felt toward ‘the* ancient pilot. He hasn’t the dnstinct for publicity, the booming; @personality that somehow has iclothed the ordinary deeds of .@uth. & But never in all the Babe's 20 years of big league play has he \éwsed more devastation gt the blate than Foxx unleashed Mon day as the Athletics slaughtered 'g.Wulter Johnson's Cleveland In ‘dians 11 to 5 in the first game of gheir western invasion. ~ In the first inning Jimmie trip pled with two on. In the second %{e hit his 3th home run of the season with the bases loaded. A Qfl@le in the fourth chased home another run. A single scored two aore in the sixth. And to add the perfect Ruthian touch, Jim nie fanned magnificently in his final try in the ninth. Athens Company And Firemen Win In Diamond Loop *The Atheng Manufeaturing com %bnny gave the highly touted Prince \ Avenue Pharmacy its worst beat ing of the season Monday evening “on Dudley field, winning 18 to 5. . The victory gave the company “boys a fighting chance for the sec ~ond half crown and at the same time weakened the Pharmacy boys’ _standing in the league to the low est poin in several weeks. The ffi;‘g‘mes yesterday sent second place dinto tie between Prince Avenue i-Pham{acy and Athens = Manufac ~turing company. " . Woodie Gann and Ralph Hill, hurling for the winners, were in “rare form, giving up only 5 hits be tween them while their mates 3“w’olmded Whitehead for 17 safeties. ~ Hill and Hart, with three hits i’m led the batting parade for the “company team with John Gordon ;an the only member of the los :‘hz team able to get more than ;fi: safety.

Hill Beats Miller 20 to 16 In Hitting Orgy in Busi ~ ness League & I LT . . f By STAR DUST | The many friends of Mr. J. lEverett Patman, who hit a home | ‘run in the eighth inning of thel Hill-Miller game at the Y., M. C.l ’A. athletic field Monday, will be greatly displeased to learn that! }hp has sufficiently recovered to! talk. } . Mr. Patman strode to the TOW | of bats late Monday as the sun | was sinking over the western ho- | rizon and the early stars weru! beginning to twinkle in the_twi-i light skies. Mr. Patman carefullyi selected the bat he always hits| with, and stepped to the base. ; “Come in you fielders,” Gentry, | the pitcher of the opposing tenm-——‘ Miller—called. For Gentry knew, as all followers of the Business] Men’s league know, that Mr. J.| Everett Patman's hits, if stretched | from end to end would end prettyl quickly. “One out! One away, every body. Who'll take this easy man?"’ a Miller fielder went on in banter-i ing chatter. The Miller team was really plehsed that the Great Prai-‘ ther and Big Leaguer Hartford[ were already on the bases, and that it was only Patman at bat. Thurmond, first wup, had tripled and gone home. Turner was then resting on third, Praither on sec ond, and Hartford on first base when Patman came to bat. Swish! Bopl.. ' i, “Whee!”—the spectators began PALACE 48 T - WHAT A SNAP RJS b A 00, S S .

Recovering their wits, the men on bases began to stumble home. ‘Then came Patman—first, second, third, and—home. A home run! Game Called “The game is hereby called!” declared the umpire. But it was not because Patman had broken up the game with his home run. It was because the field was prac tically in total darkness. . Patman’s homer which brought in three runners ahead of him did not count. As the eighth inning was still in session when the game was stopped, the score at the end of the seventh frame counted. Hill won, 20 to 16. Everybody was hitting Monday. Gentry got a homer, a triple, and two singles for four runs out of four times at bat. Deas, Gentry’'s team-mate on the Miller team, got a homer and two singles out of four times up for two runs, and Hopkins got a home run. Prai ther got two home runs and a single out of four times up, and scored two runs for Hill Turner got four hits and two runs . out of five times up; Green got three hits and three runs out of four times up, and Thurmond got three hits and three runs out of five times up for Miller. The victory sent Hill farther into the leadership of the Busi ness Men's league. Wilson will play Martin Tuesday at 6:30.
