Louis Browns made good use of their meager collection of four hits to defeat the Philadelphia Athletics, 3 to 1, Saturday night. The victory kept the Browns one game behind league-leading Detroit. Denny Galehouse, granting six blows, blanked the Athletics after the first inning. The Browns sewed up the decision with two runs off Don Black of Salix, in the second frame. Milt Byrnes walked and George McQuinn doubled him to third.

Byrnes scored and Mr(uinn went to third on a wild pitch, then Mark Christ-man singled to send McQuinn across. The Philadelphia run eame on a single by Ford Garrison, a double by Bob Estalella and an infield out on Frank Hayes' grounder. Irvin Hall was safe at first on Vern Stephens' error to open the inning, but was picked off first by Catcher Red Hayworth. Shortstop Edgar Busch's ild throw permitted Chet Laabs to More from second with the Browns' run in the sixth frame after Chet singled and stole second. Joe Berry, relieving Black after the sixth, held St.

Louis hitless the last two innings. It was the Browns' fourth straight triumph. I'hirhla AR. M. (.

The first-place Detroit Ti-pers increased their Amer ican league pennant chances, Saturday and eliminated Boston from the race by defeating the Red Sox, 8 to 2, behind the six-hit pitching of their star right-hander, Paul (Dizzy) Trout. It was Trout's twenty-sixth victory and put him in a tie with team-mate Hal Xewhouser as the Pinky IlicRlnft. Keeps OJcnae Humming.

leading winners In the major leagues. Trout has lost 12 and Kewhouser nine. The defeat dropped the Red Sox nine games behind the Tigers with only eight games to go. By win- ring the Tigers stayed one game aht-ad of the second place St. Louis Browns, who defeated Philadelphia Saturday night.

The Tigers pounded three Boston hurlers for 11 hits and M-ored enough runs to win in the first inning when they got to Rex Cecil, rookie righthander, for four tallies. Clem Ilaunnnann and Womlsj followed Cecil to the iiiouiKt. Loose fielding spoiled Trout's bid for a shutout in the eighth when three successive errors permitted the first Boston run to cross the plate. The second tally, however, was legitimate and counted on Bob Johnson's double and Lou Finney's single. Pinky Hipgins led the Tigers' attack with three successive singles, which drove in two runs, and he scored two himself.

Two singles by Joe Hoover batted in three runs. The victory was the eighth in the last nine starts for the Tigers. "lloVfiin An7H7r7letrldl A b7h o7A. Lake.Jb a 3 Cramer.cl 5 12 0 4 15 0 Mayo, 2b 2 0 14 4 11 5 3 11 3 3 11 OYork.lh 4 1 13 1 F.tif hrr. 4 1 4 3 2 3 4 2 10 Outlaw.

The ruperbombers of the 2nd air force y'gnvhelmed an inexperienced Whitman college navy eleven, 78 to 0, in a listless game before a crowd of 7.000 here Saturday.

The air force, composed of prewar collegiate and pro stars, scored 12 touchdowns and gained 402 yards from passing and rushing ajrsinst Whitman's 163 yards, tvX which 158 were from passing. Xk 9 I -J who saw no or little servica against Michigan a week ago, were greatly improved in spite of the loss of several key men through ineligibility. Injuries and the dbntract with the Gophers, which precluded the use of enlisted men. Th victorious team uncorked a fine offensive, which might have made the ronteat a hit one-sided had It not hogged down several times within scoring distance. Twice th Seahswks lost th ball on downs in the second quarter when a touchdown seemed certain, once on th Gopher fivj and again on the 12.

Early tn th third period they were thwarted in the same way, this time 0.1 the seven-yard stripe. At another time Don Samuels, halfback from Oregon State, was in the clear and seemed to he on his way to six points, when he stumbled, lost his stride and was caught on the Minnesota nine. The Seahawks, outplayed through the early moments of th game, came to life late in th first quarter and had it all over their opponents from that point 1 to the end of half, but it was not until less than two minutes of the second quarter remained one minute and 32 seconds to be exact that they scored, and then only as the result of a break. Minnesota had the ball, having taken it on downs on its 40, and having advanced it seven yards in three plays, when Quarterback Merlin Kispeit, after first fumbling the pass from center, lateralis! to Wayne (Red) Williams. The hall was hatted by a couple of defenders and was then caught by Raymond Swanke, Pre -Flight left end from Wyoming, who raced unmolested for 40 yards and the) touchdown that gave his team a 0-0 halftime advantage.

Jim McEvoy mls.ted the conversion, as he dlii the second one. It took the Gophers only six minutes after receiving the second half touchdown to score and take the lead. The sortie started from SEAHAWKS Continued on Page Tico. STATISTICS. ea- Mlnn.

Iowa's Jim Youel sowed a mine field in front of a powerful Purdue football team here Saturday and took personal command of an assault that blew the Boilermakers off their unbeaten path of 1943 in a breathtaking 27 to 18 epic. With the two great offenses slugging it out with power, Youel handled the Great Lakes JIM YOUEL. throttle with a master hand, contributing both the passing and the sensational running that de- cided the duel. The Iowan, a seaman first class with a football rating of super-quarterback, pitched three touchdown passes, then climaxed the titanic bat tin with a sensational 03-yard touchdown run on a punt return. This was a game of terrific power and savage onslaught by both teams.

Purdue, trailing at the outset, twice fought Great Lakes to a standstill and took the lead only to have the brilliant Youel nullify mighty Boilermaker efforts with his electrifying feats. When Youel was called out of the game for a brief rest in the fourth quarter, every witness from the commandant down to the newest recruit in the uniformed crowd was on his feet with a roaring tribute. The Iowan firmt put the Bluejackets in the lead with a IS-yarri pass out Into the flat to Ed Saenz, former Southern California back, for a touchdown. Purdue, trailing at the quarter, roared back with two irresistible touchdown drives in the second, only to have Youel pitch a 40-yard fourth-down strike to Don Mangold, once of Indiana, in the end zone. There were just 14 seconds of the half remaining when Youel let fly and Mangold, off in a corner of the end zone, was hemmed in by three Purdue backs, each of them taller than Mangold.

Nevertheless Mangold went up and snatched the ball out of the Pur due hands to put Great Lakes in front, 14 to 12, at the half. Again Purdue stormed back, recovered a Great Lakes fumble 35 yards out, and marched to a touchdown. That Boilermaker lead held through the third period. Then Youel went back to his blasting business. He called the shots that sent Great Lakes on the march from its own 23-yard line.

The game was the first ever played at night by a Michigan football team. The Wolverines started their first scoring parade after Marquette's kickoff at the beginning of the third period.
