Yanks Equal Mark Of 19 Straight in American League Now Gun for Record Of Major Loops of 26, Straight By Joe Reichler (Associated Press Sports Writer) The New York Yankees' merciless victory march in the American League' had even the rival National league clubs jittery today. With 19 straight victories under their belts to tie the American league consecutive win record, the Bronx Bombers are casting covetous glances at the only two winning streaks exceeding theirs 21 straight by the 1935 Chicago Cubs and the major league record of 26 polled by the New York Giants in 1916. The Yankees made it 19 in a row yesterday when they defeated the Cleveland Indians in both ends of a double header, 3-1 and 7-2, at Cleveland's municipal stadium.

The double victory enabled them to equal the 41-year-old standard set by the Chicago White Sox in 1906. An Occasion The opener was a special occasion for Bobo Newsom, the much traveled pitcher who finally landed with the Yankees last week after having been with seven-other big league clubs. Old Bobo scattered nine hits effectively to register his second straight win in a Yankee uniform, his sixth of the season and the 200th of his big league career. Vic Raschi, a 29-year-old right- hander recalled recently from Portland of the Pacific coast league, doled out six hits in the second game to gain his second victory in a week. Veteran First Baseman George McQuinn was the batting star, getting two hits In cnch one two-run homer.

The Red Sox remained a game behind the Tigers by winning two from the Whits Sox in Chicago, 4-1 and 6-3, the second game going 11 innings. Joe Dobson, who has become the number one pitcher on the Red Sox staff, won his 10th game with a six-hit effort in the opener.

The Philadelphia Athletics, leading 7-2 going into the ninth inning, wracked across nine more runs to trounce the Browns in a night game in St. Louis, 16-2.
