A Yankee nemesis in his prime, Rowe lacked the speed of the ' pennant-winning years of 1034 and 1935, but he used what stuff he did have to remarkable advantage. The Yanks combed him for 11 hits, two more than De- troit obtained, but left 11 runners stranded on the bases. In winning the seventh game in their last eight starts, the Tigers benefited from four unearned runs scored in the eighth inning after Second Baseman Joe Gordon had thrown a double-play ball into the New York dugout.

CASEY WINS PAIR FOR DODGERS Brooklyn, N.Y., Sept. 12.--A lot of pitchers have tried the "iron-man" stunt of pitching both ends of a double-header, but Hugh Casey of the Dodgers did the trick yesterday without so much work.

The grouches, criticizing anything concerning the war effort, and sources of the whispering cam- paigns, which started lying rumors concerning the activities of the gov- ernment, accidents at munitions plants, airplane factories and troops, should be watched closely.
