8-7 win over the Detroit Tigers
yesterday as the rival managers
used 39 players—most in American
League history.

times as the Yankees snapped a
four-game losing streak and moved
within one game of the league
leading Chicago White Sox.
Allie Reynolds, the last of six
Yankee pitchers, won his fourth
game against four defeats.
Manager Casey Stengel put 20
Yankees into the game and Red
Rolfe played 19. The previous
league record was 38.
The Pan-American games re

t BY ALVA MAYES, JR.
Comer, leaders of the Athens Independent League
standings entering this week-end’s league action, kept
their lead margin yesterday afternoon as they took a 9-0
win aver Bogart by virture of the visitors’ inability to field
a'complete team. ;
With only eight members of the
Bogart nine present at game
tinre, the Comer crew automati
cally captured the win which set
them one game ahead of the Ath=
ens V. F. W,, who also won on a
forfeit from Watkinsville to take
the second place slot over Dia
mond Hill,
The Hillers, meanwhile, aided
their slide into fourth place as
the lost to Whitehall, 15-3, to
continue their recent slump; and
allow Whitehall to take the third
place slot.
With forfeits and sthe one
sided tilt occupying these games,
the Colbert-Statham contest
evolved as the outstanding meet=
ing yesterday afternoon with the
host Colbert nine barely edging
the visiting Statham crew, 6-5.
With Clinton Lord and Norman
Hall going all the way for the
winners on the mound and behind
the plate, respectively, the Colbert
crew tapped the losing pitcher,
Boyce Holliday, for eight hits
and stole a total of twelve bases
to take the tilt after close action
all the way. Wallace Seagraves
of Colbert collected the longest
hit of the day with a home run,
the only round trip clot of the
contest.
Last Week
The Colbert nine also reported
on their last Sunday’s game with
Farnrington which put them back
into the first division standings
by virtue of their 10-4 win over
the team which had displaced
them the previous afternoon.
