The other mark to be supplanted was Paul Johnson's 15 total bases in one pame. The Columbus slugger hit a homer, three triples nnri a double May 20, 1925.

(By The Auoclated Preso Two of the best pitching performances of the still-young 1935 campaign were recorded on the same day and neither of the pitchers who did the work was able to win his game. Leon Chagnon of the Giants pitched a 2-hit game against the Reds yesterday and lost It 2 lo and William Watson Clark, veteran Brooklyn southpaw, gave the Pirates only three blows and goffered to setback. Chagnon, making his first appearance as a starting hurler in nearly two years, apparently was Victim of circumstances in the second In- fi when the Reds did all their stick work. Meanwhile Paul Derringer, winnlnp: his eighth game of the year, set the Giants down with four hits. Bill Swift, Pittsburgh fllnger, granted the Dodgers onjy five blows and caught his mound rival napping in the ninth to smack dougle and score the only run on Forrest Jensen's 2-bagger.

Pittsburgh's triumph moved the Bucs into second place in the tional league as the Cardinals split a hard fought double header with the Braves. Boston took the opener 5 to 4 when Wally Berger smashed a homer with two aboard. After Dizzy Dean had tolled 13 innjngs in the nifjhtcap the Cards finally won for him 8 to 7. Curt Davis of the Phillies, making his first start since the season's opener, showed that he had recovered from his sore arm trouble when he bore down in the clinchecs and rjeat the Cubs 5 to 4 although touched for 11 hits. The American league produced a succession of weird slugfests, the oddest of which saw the Senators beat the White Sox 16 to 11 In innings after Chicago had overcome an 8 to 0 deficit.

Al Sitnnions hit a homer with tht bases full anc Washington's relief flinger, Ed Linkc. knocked one with two aboard in the winning rally. The league-leading Yankees had to KO 13 innings to subdue the last- place Browns 4 to .1 after tying the fount in the ninth when Merrill iCain weakened toward the finish ol well pitched game.

CITY LEAGUE NOTES Joe Van Gundy established a new City league strike-out record in Friday's game between the Emporia Cardinals and the Imps but the Cardinals could do no better than gain a 2 to 2 draw before darkness halted play.

Van Gundy whiffed 14 Imp batters but a streak of wildness in the third inning and indifferent support in the both the third and sixth inning permitted the Imps to score their runs. Meanwhile "Spider" Zabala, Mexican hurler who had won three straight City league games, pitched effectively with men on bases and nine Cardinal hits were good for only two runs. Both of these came in the third inning. Parker was safe on Holmes' error at first and scored on Van Gundy's double. The pitcher was out at third in attempting to stretch the hit but Wheat's single and Greenfield's double brought in another run.

The Imps scored in the third on a passed ball after an error and two walks had put a man on third. The Imps filled the basis again in the fifth but could not score. The tying run came in the sixth when an error permitted the tally. Van Gundy allowed only three hits. The game will be replayed at a later date.

The score by innings: Cardinals 9 3 Imps 3 6 Batteries: Gundy and Greenfield, Lockard; Zabala and Bremer.

New York, June 15 Pennsylvania monopoly on fcig league batting honors became even more pronounced during the past week as the one-third of the season mile post drew near with five of the Athletics clouters in the American league's "first 10" and three rep- reesntatives of the Pittsburgh Pirates and one of the Phillies in similar positions in the National league.

With the marks of many of the leaders tumbling, many of the Pennsylvania group held more prominent positions than before after yesterday's games. Doc Cramer of the Athletics hopped from ninth place to fifth in the junior circuit while Jimmie Foxx and Eric McNair moved up a notch apiece despite falling averages. John Moore of the Phillies, who had dropped clear out of the group of leaders, returned to fourth place in the National with a .322 average and Paul Waner of the Pirates slipped back in. Arky Vaughan, the Pirates' pace setter who tops both leagues, main- neri his average through the week with eight hits in 20 times at bat. The first 10 regulars in each major league follow: National League.

He regained the title he held in 1931 by conquering Jack Robertson, defending champion from Wichita, 2 to 1 in the finals of the annual state tournament at the Salina Country club here yesterday after waging an uphill battle.
