BY GAYLE TALBOT Associated Press Sports Writer Deprived for the time being of anything resembling a close race, American league partisans are deriving most of their midseason excitement from the hot duel between Vernon Gomez and Robert Moses Grove for pitching honors The two star southpaws, backed by clubs that provide them with plenty of runs, are setting a pace that promises soon to distance all rivals. Gomez is pitching only his second full year in the majors.

Ninth Straight Defeating Cleveland yesterday, 8 to 7, Gomez stretched his record to 12 victories against one defeai and scored his ninth straight victory for the New York Yankees Grove, beating Detroit 8 to 1 on Jour scattered hits, observed his eleventh straight triumph and set his mark at 12 wins and three losses. Gomez has not tasted defeat since May 2, when Washington knocked him from the hill in five innings. The Senators also hanaed Grove his last reverse, by 2 to 1, cm April 30. Grove breezed in with No. 12, holding Detroit helpless, but Gomez had a terrible time subduing the Indians.

They slugged him for sii hits and five runs in the last three frames and would have beaten frim in the ninth but for sensational fielding by Chapman, Lary and Lazzen. Each Gets Homer The homerun race between Babe Ruth of the Yanks and Jimmy Foxx of the A's remained at a standstill as Foxx hit No. 23 off Tom Bridges of Detroit and the Babe nicked Jack Russell for No. 21. In the (Say's only other contest, the Chicago White Sox jumped on Ed Durham and Wiley Moore foi five runs in the seventh inning to beat the forlorn Boston Red Sox, to 6.

German Champion Makes Complete Change in Ring Style For Bout. BY EDWARD J. NEIL Kingston, N.

June 14-OT new Max Schmeling, in righting style at least, will be unveiled for the gaze of the faithful and Boston's Jack Sharkey, in the New Madison Square Garden bowl, week from tonight 'If Sharkey thinks he's going to meet the sort of a Schmeling he walloped around for four round two years ago before fouling him he's crazy," muttered Jim Corbett a champion himself back in thi era of the heavyweights "Sharkey will have to get this fellow early if he's going to do it af all." Striking: Change Most striking is the completi change in the German's ring style his new knowledge of defense, anc an expanded punching repetoire. No longer does Der Maxie ape the weaving, bobbing style of Jack Dempsey, instead, he stand straight up, his itft hand extended jabbing in orthodox fashion, slip' ping punches with his head, coun tering hard and short with solit rights to the ribs and chin. Schmeling be'ieves he has thui improved his defense, and acquiret at the same time, a right ham upper-cut. Today the German is ready for the fight. He weighs 190 pounds He is brown of skin and placid temperament, nis muscles npple and flow as he goes through his lengthy work-outs without drawing a single heavy breath and he ha all the poise and calm of any chani' plon in history Says He Is Better Today the German calmly plck off left jabs with his right glov and drops over short, thudiimi counters to the chin.

His elbow catch most of the left hooks hi sparring partners toss at him. A close quarters his hands are neve still, hammering to the body, ant his right hand uppei-cut under th heart and to the jaw has driven a least three sparring partners from camp "I am better, yes," says Schmel ing, "why should I not be' I stud my trade like any other man. fight better this time."
