A's Receive Twin Pasting From Yankees NEW YORK. June 29.

iP) The Yankees stepped up their home run production to its pre-recession level today, belting five four-baggers as Lefty Gomez and Bump Hadley turned in a pair of four-hit pitching performances that gave the world champions two decisions over the Philadelphia Athletics, by scores of 10-0 and 13-1. Gomez, who has been running in tough luck this season, hurled the shutout. Joe Gordon got a homer, double and two singles and Bill Dickey, a homer and triple. For Hadley tho Yankees produced 13-hit support, with Red Rolfe crashing out a four-bagger and three singles. Lou Gehrig a horned double and single, and Gordon another homer and a single.

The twin triumphs, and Cleveland's defeat, cut the Indians' first-place margin over the Yankees to three games. FIRST GAME Score by Innings: K. H. E.

() The mighty and supposedly flawless War Admiral revealed his weakness today as ho trained Hal Price Headley's triumphant Menow, the 1937 Juvenile champion, by about nine lengths while finishing fourth in the J60.000 added Massachusetts handicap on a heavy Suffolk Downs track. The largest racing crowd In Mew England's track history. 66,000, which had booed the scratching of C. S. Howard's Seabiscuit only 15 minutes before post time looked on in amazement as two other outsiders, D.

A. Wood's Busy and Mrs. Emu Denemark's War Minstrel, led the famed Admiral across the finish. War Minstrel's margin was so close, however, a photo was necessary. The Admiral's disappointing performance, proved beyond all doubt he doesn't like heavy going.

The four-year old Man O'War colt's only other start on a heavy track was as a two-year old at Laurel, where ho was beaten a length and a half by Bottle Cap, his last reverse betore going on to win 11 straight races. Charley Kurtsinger, who rode War Admiral, explained after the race: "The 130-pound weight and the holding track beat us. Menow is a great horse. I know because I rode him when he won the Belmont futurity last year and the Withers this year." As the starters were heading for the paddock, Tom Smith, the Howard tratner, reported to the stewards that Seabiscuit had an Injured tendon and requested his scratching.

After booing the announcement that the long-awaited duel had been called off for the second time within a month Seabiscuit couldn't go through with his $100,000 match race with the Admiral at Belmont park on Memorial Day, either the crowd settled back expecting to see a hollow victory for the Riddle ace. But the thousands were stunned when, after making a mighty bid rounding the far turn, the Admiral wilted in the home stretch.

Menow, which paid $22.80 to win. was out of the starting gate about a half-length ahead of War Admiral and led every inch of the mile and an eighth of heavy going. The time was 1:52 3-5. against the track and race record of 1:49 made by Sea-biscuit last year. Cubs Drop To Fourth Place CHICAGO, June 29.

However, the district fans will be the gainers through this 1933 schedule arrangement, for they will be given a big bargain double-header just the same, on the day before the Fourth, and will still have the holiday to spend elsewhere. This double-header, one of the most attractive of the entire season, will be staged at Forbes field in Pittsburg next Sunday afternoon, when the Bucs will tangle with the St.

Louis Cardinals in two games for one admission, the first starting at 1 p. Altoona time. The extra contest on the bills is one postponed from April 29. Sunday's twin attraction will be the climax of a four game series crowded into the first three days of July, the Pirates and Cards being slated to hook up in single events on Friday and Saturday. St.

Louis is the only club in the National league that has beaten the Corsairs in the majority of games played at Forbes Field this year. Of the three jousts already decided there, the Gas House Gang grabbed two. Moreover, the Missourians have been going at a vastly improved clip since May ended, with the pitching and fielding stepped up to support the slugging of Joe Medwick, Johnny Mizo, Enos Slaughter. Mickey Owens, and others, one of the most powerful attacks in baseball. Every game in the Pittsburg series is likely to be hard fought, and the Sunday double header in particular no doubt will pack in the fans in capacity numbers.

It will be the last chance until July 13 to see the Pirates in action at home. Larin Wins 3-Horse Race At Inglewood INGLEWOOD, June 29. Herbert M. Woolf's Kentucky derby winner Lawrin romped in easily today without competition to capture the. mile and a quarter $50,000 American 3-year old championship stakes at Hollywood Park.

CLEVELAND, June 29. (if) Mel Harder, fresh from duty in the Cleveland bull pen, seemed to have a shutout over Detroit to his credit going into eighth inning today but when it was over Bill Rogell and Hank Greenberg had home runs and Detroit had a 4 to 3 victory. Harder coasted along easily tor seven innings, allowing only five hits, fanning six and walking only one man. He appeared to be in old time form. But Rogell, first man up in the eighth, smacked one offering over the right field wall and a few minutes later Greenberg was standing at the plate with Gehringer and York on base.

The defeat narrowed the Indians' lead over the second place Yankees to three games as the New Yorkers took two games from Philadelphia. A bad throw by Hal Trosky in the eighth helped to build up the situation which gave Detroit the victor.

June 2a. W) Don Budge and that mechanical rabbit. Henry Wilfred (Bunny) Austin, scampered into the finals or the All-England tennis championships today and Wimbledon, a little bored by their superiority, turned its attention to tomorrow's semi-finals In the women's section of the tournament. Austin, reaching the zenith or his form, eliminated Germany's Henner Henke! in just 55 minutes, 6-2.

6-4 6-0. Budge followed the English' stylist on the center court and thrashed Ferenc Puncec of Yugoslavia. 6-2, 6-1. 6-4. Puncec, a good capable baseline plodder, ran his willing legs off but there was no stopping the champion.

The California red head hit them back and forth from corner to corner until Puncec was out of breath. In the third set. Budge let him get ahead. Then when he decided it was time to quit playing, Don rushed to the net and hauled the Slav in like a miserable trout. Austin probably never played with such perfect length.

Even in tlie early rounds he never was in sucn supreme command as he was today against the German, who was expected to make a battle of it. The victories of Budge and Austin cleared the way for the real climax of the tournament Helen Jacobs against Alice Marble and Helen Wills Moody against Hilda Krahwinkel. the only non-American remaining in the woman's nifles. Miss Marble and Mrs. Moody got a brief look at each other today on the center court when Alice paired with Budge to beat Queen Helen and Jean Borotra of France in the quar-'ter-finals of the mixed doubles.

The scores were 6-1, 6-4. Miss Jacobs and f'rau Sperling bad the day off.
