The league-leading Tigers beat Brooklyn to the punch by announcing their attendance had hit the jackpot at 1,020,492 yesterday but Brother Branch Rickey in Flatbush will be sounding the same tidings over the week end and the New York Giants also have a chance to do the trick. Feller's return to civilian life is expected to take place today with rapid Robert slated to take the nill Friday night against the Tigers in his first pro start since 1941.

The rumor waves also have tt that Joe DiMaggio will soon rejoin the New York Yankees. Washington continues to amaze the fans with a complete reversal of last form. It's about time somebody gave Ossie Bluege a hand for the job he's done on the Senators in transforming the "flop of 1944" into the surprise of the current campaign. Bluege Does Good Job.

The New York Yankees continued to show signs of life after a miserable western jaunt, trouncing White Sox twice, 3-0, behind Red Ruffing, and 6-2 on a five hitter by Gettel with the help of Charley first homer.

St. Louis missed a chance to gain ground on the leaders hv splitting two with the Boston Red Sox. Nelson Potter gave the Brownies the opener, 2 to 1, although they collected only four blows off Otis Clark, but Randy Heflin beat them, 4-3, in a finale cut to five innings by rain.

Feller Ins been pitching regularly for the Great Lakes Naval Training Station team, which he managed this year, and a lot of it has been against major league and class A A teams. The fireball ar tist who went to Cleveland as a hieli bcv has been mowing down baiters as he did before 1941 and without even attempting to use the rpeed he thought necessary four years ago. While Feller hardly could pitch Cleveland to a pennant, his return could do a lot to upset the contenders, and make the Indians the real giant killers of the league.
