As a result, the Yanks' American league lead remained intact at two full games over Boston. The free-hitting contest, during which three men were injured, resolved into a battle of relief pitchers after both Floyd Bevens and Don Black had been rapped hard in the early innings. Joe Page was credited with his fifth win.

He replaced Charley Wer.sioff who was spiked on the right ankle by Manager Lou Bou-dreau of the Indians in the sixth inning. Boudreau, who turned his ankle oh the play, also left the game. Ed Klieman, the second Cleveland pitcher, broke his glasses and has his right eyelid cut in a collision with George Stirnwiess at first base. These schedule in effect in recent years. By WHITNEY MARTIN Of The Associated Press New York, June 23 We have been wondering a little just what his newly-acquired National Open championship will be worth to Lew Worsham in dollars and cents, and although we might be wrong we have come to the conclusion it won't be worth a fraction of what such a title was worth a score of years ago.

There probably will be a quick return from endorsements, and a few exhibitions, but the exhibition business isn't what it used to be and, unless Worsham continues to win consistently, the demand for his services will fade rapidly. WORSHAM HAS THE added disadvantage of being a comparative unknown. Were he Sam Snead or Ben Hogan or Jimmy Demaret or Byron Nelson, the Open title would bring a much greater financial return, as those players have established and maintained their reputations over a period of time. The golf-hungry fans, without the opportunity of seeing big fields of top-flighters competing, settled for exhibitions involving the chief among them being the current Open titleholder. Nowadays tournament sponsors don't want primarily the Open champion.

They want first Hogan, and Snead, and Demaret, and Nel wot mzom QJJ tfHB BQ0C? GSJ son, if Lord Byron is available. If Dealers Have the Open champion is available, so much the better, but unless he is a "name" player he is not considered indispensible.
