Billy Winn, rated as one of the foremost American contenders, was forced out with a broken crankshaft on the ninth lap. Seaman's Fue] Fails. All the drama and thrills of the race were confined to the final eleven laps of the 90-lap contest. With only 11 laps or approximately 35 miles to go, Rosemeyer suddenly drove into the pits for a last-minute checkup. The recheck took 33 seconds, but during that interlude Seaman picked up so rapidly that he trailed the Ger- man by only nine seconds. But as Rosemeyer streaked on with- out a sputter over the 89th lap, Sea- man's car suddenly balked. He was almost out of gas. Heartbroken, he screeched into his pit, got fuel, and then took out after Rosemeyer. But the change had cost him 30 seconds and a chance for victory. Driving as if he were going to lunch and frequently waving to his aviatrix wife, Elly Beinhorn, who timed him and signaled his progress to him, Rosemeyer led for all but nine laps. Two elements gave the foreign cars and drivers supremacy for the second consecutive year. First, their cars possessed far greater speed on the straightaway; secondly, the foreign crews were almost twice as fast mak- ing repairs and giving fuel. Snyder Forced Out. On the straightaway, Rosemeyer and Seaman had no trouble reaching the 150 mile per hour mark, or high- er at times, whereas the fastest Mays could make was 137.2. It took Rosemeyer's crew 35 sec- onds to change the two rear tires; Mays' crew required a minute and 18 seconds to do the same job.

[Chicago 'Eribune Press Service.] (Box 8cores on page 22.) Detroit, Mich., July 5.-The White Sox did much better financially than they did artistically in morning and afternoon holiday jousts with the Tigers today. They drew atotal at- tendance of 48,000for the two games, but dropped both, 8 to 4 and 7 to 4. The morning game, playedbefore 22,000, was a most painful travesty considering the circumstance that the losers had just WOIleleven of their last thirteen contests. Vern Kennedy, twice victor this season over the Tigers, was bruised by Greenberg's No. 18 homer, good for three runs in the first inning, and wound up his chore after the second inning, in which the Tigers made three runs after :Conura had dropped Appling's throw for the potential third out. Among the things that happened after Zeke's lapsewas a homer by Rogell with one down. Sox Get Going. The Sox made three runs in the sixth, mostly as a result of succes- sive hits off Cletus Elwood Poffen- berger by Kreevich, Walker, Bonura and Appling before anybody was out. They had another rally rolling in the eighth when Bonura was seized with one of those cerebral cramps which occasionally attack zealous ball play- ers. Zeke made a dash for third with that base occupied, a most unhappy effort. What the Sox or Tigers did after Bonura's second misfortune of the morning didn't make much differ- ence. The slim solace In the affair was a span of perfect pitching by Sugar Cain, second of the Sox three pitch- ers. I It took the Tigers ten innings to Curt Davis. Bill Lee. Chadey Root. Leroy Parmelee.

The Sox knocked out Jake Wade in the fifth, but could do little or nothing with Roxie Lawson there- after. WHAT'S THE USff 7 ANDY-VOU MIGHT AS WEL.l LET HER HAVE HER OWN! WAY- THEY MARCHED IN THE BIG PARADE !IIike Ryba. Jim Winford. Ray Harrell. BY ARCH WARD. W ASHINGTON, D. C., July 5.-The nation's capital city, accustomed to parades and othe~ wel.coming festivities. for world celebrities, is getting a fresh thnll this week...• Washington, on Wednesday, will be host to the most brilliant array of baseball headliners it ever has known.... The occasion is the fifth annual All-Star game, which fer color and widespread interest ranks with the world series on Uncle Sam's sporting calendar .... It will be played in Griffith stadium, starting at 1:30 Chicago time, 'before a capacity crowd of 32,000,including President Franklin D. Roosevelt, who is described by the brewer owner of the New York Yankees as the man who gave us beer.... The President will throw out the first ball.... While the spirit of competition always has run high since the event was originated by this department in 1933, Wednesday's game promises to be a real fight. The rival managers, Bill Terry of the National league and Joe McCarthy of the American, have been put on the spot, so to speak, by the new rules whereby they must select the teams instead of just directing players chosen by the fans.... Thousands of American league supporters are outraged by McCarthy's failure to pick Luke Appling of the White Sox for shortstop and National leaguers are mystified by the selection of three shortstops and no third baseman. Trailing 3 to 1 in the series, the National league is expected to follow last season's policy of shooting its strongest pitching talent right from the start .... Terry plans to open with the Dodgers' fireball ace, Van Lingle Mungo, and follow with Carl Hubbell and Dizzy Dean.... Hubbell turned in one of the greatest pitching feats in baseball history in the 1934All-Star game in the Polo Grounds when he struck out five of the American league's more renowned sluggers in a row.... Dean last year was so effective in his three innings that the American leaguers didn't hit the ball out of the infield.... Against this trio McCarthy probably will use Vernon Gomez, Bob Grove, and Tommy Bridges. President William Harridge of the American league was the first of the baseball officials to arrive.... He was accompanied by Mrs. Harridge and Fred Ringley of Chicago.... Mr. Harridge canceled plans to attend a double-header between the Senators and Athletics when he learned it was raining in Philadelphia at noon.... AU of the clubs in the American league will have front office representation at the game except the White Sox.... W. O. Briggs, president of the Detroit Tigers, hurried home from a European vacation to be here for the spectacle.... Every ticket has been sold except 500 bleacher seats, which will go on sale tomorrow morning.... President Clark Griffith of the Senators held back that number to thwart speculators.

(Entry blank on page 23.) Beilfuss Natatorium, 1725 North Springfield avenue, which for a num- ber of years has been productive of a number of fine swimmers, will be represented in the eighth annual Chi- cagoland 100yard swimming races by a team of 69 boys and girls. The entry was filed by Director W. Ger- hard. All will compete in the sec- tional trials at California park, 3901 North California avenue, next Sun- day afternoon. This is the largest team entry reo ceived, but the clerks, tabulating the lists, so far have been unable to catch up with either yesterday's or Sunday's mail. There are 29 girls listed from Beilfuss and 40 boys. All ten age classes are represented, from Class A for those 11 ad 12 years old, to Class E for those 19 and over. This Is the Last Day. This is the last day in which you may file entry for the preliminary races this week-end, which will be held on Saturday afternoon at Cer- mak pool, 7600Ogden avenue, Lyons, Ill., and at Sherman park, 52d street and Racine avenue, and on Sunday afternoon at Whealan pool, Milwau- kee and Devon avenues, and at Cali- fornia park, 3901 North California avenue. From the clerks' lists of entries it is apparent the Sunday preliminaries will be much larger than those on Saturday afternoon. This undoubted- ly is due to the preference for Sun- day afternoon, but the four-sectional system does furnish swimmers in all parts of Chicago with a convenient center at which to win their gold qualifying badges which entitles them to compete for the champion- ships at Whealan pool on July 18. It Will Be a Large Field. One hundred and eighty swimmers, under this system will compete for the championships that day. The number of qualifiers from the four sectionals will be apportioned accord- ing to the number of swimmers. Quite possibly three or four will qualify in each of the ten age classes from Sherman park and Cermak pool. This would leave five or six qualify- ing positions open in each of the ten classes at California park and Wheal- an pool. Should it be necessary, the list of qualifiers can be expanded so that no contestant in the trials will be re- quired to swim more than one race. A tentative order has been placed with the firm which has supplied the 180 gold medals. Within three days an additional supply of medals could be manufactured. will help you in business end increase yOU! motorin~ ~':1. joyment.

After White had sent a fly to Kreevich, Rogell walked after a three and two count. Gehring- er also ran the count to three balls and two strikes before lining a single to right, which put Rogell on third. Greenberg then boosted his No. 18 homer over the left field wall, scoring behind Rogell and Gehringer. Fox opened the Tiger second inning with a triple to right center, but wouldn't have scored except for Bon- ura's error, a rarity in that it was on a thrown ball. After Fox's triple Bol- ton fanned and Appling tossed out Poffenberger. White bounced to Ap- pling for what should have been the third out. It was at this juncture that Appling's sidearm curve gotaway from Bonura, Fox scoring and White reaching second. Rogell drove a horn- er into the upper deck of the right ield grandstand, scoring behind White. Bonura's Bat Fails. The Sox got in scoring position in each of thefirst three innings and in first and third inningsBonura ended the threats with Radcliff on third, the second time supplying the third out with a strikeout. When the Sox trotted into the arena at the start of the home third, Kennedy was not amongthose pres- ent. Cain had taken his place. Cain walked Greenberg, then settled down to four innings of perfect pitching be- fore going out for a pinch batsman at the start of the seventh. In the sixth, the Sox cut the Tiger lead in two. Kreevich led off with a double to right and scored on Walk- er's single to left. Bonura singled to center, Walker stopping at second. Appling made it four hits in a row with a single to right, Walker scoring and Bonura taking third. Hayes forced Appling, Bonura scoring. Hayes reached second on Piet's grounder to Rogell, but the inning ended with Sewell's pop to Gehringer. Zeke Pulls Mental Fumble.

Seaman's Fue] Fails.All the drama and thrills of the

race were confined to the final elevenlaps of the 90-lap contest. With only11 laps or approximately 35 milesto go, Rosemeyer suddenly drove intothe pits for a last-minute checkup.The recheck took 33 seconds, but

during that interlude Seaman pickedup so rapidly that he trailed the Ger-man by only nine seconds.But as Rosemeyer streaked on with-

out a sputter over the 89th lap, Sea-man's car suddenly balked. He wasalmost out of gas. Heartbroken, hescreeched into his pit, got fuel, andthen took out after Rosemeyer. Butthe change had cost him 30 secondsand a chance for victory.Driving as if he were going to

lunch and frequently waving to hisaviatrix wife, Elly Beinhorn, whotimed him and signaled his progressto him, Rosemeyer led for all butnine laps.Two elements gave the foreign cars

WASHINGTON, D. C., July 5.-The nation's capital city, accustomedto parades and othe~ wel.coming festivities. for world celebrities,is getting a fresh thnll this week ...• Washington, on Wednesday,will be host to the most brilliant array of baseball headliners it

ever has known. . . . The occasion is the fifth annual All-Star game, whichfer color and widespread interest ranks with the world series on UncleSam's sporting calendar .... It will be played in Griffith stadium, starting at1:30 Chicago time, 'before a capacity crowd of 32,000, including PresidentFranklin D. Roosevelt, who is described by the brewer owner of the New YorkYankees as the man who gave us beer. . . . The President will throw outthe first ball. . . . While the spirit of competition always has run highsince the event was originated by this department in 1933, Wednesday'sgame promises to be a real fight.

The rival managers, Bill Terry of the National league and Joe McCarthyof the American, have been put on the spot, so to speak, by the new ruleswhereby they must select the teams instead of just directing playerschosen by the fans. . . . Thousands of American league supporters areoutraged by McCarthy's failure to pick Luke Appling of the White Sox forshortstop and National leaguers are mystified by the selection of threeshortstops and no third baseman.

Trailing 3 to 1 in the series, the National league is expected to followlast season's policy of shooting its strongest pitching talent right from thestart .... Terry plans to open with the Dodgers' fireball ace, Van LingleMungo, and follow with Carl Hubbell and Dizzy Dean. . . . Hubbell turnedin one of the greatest pitching feats in baseball history in the 1934All-Stargame in the Polo Grounds when he struck out five of the American league'smore renowned sluggers in a row. . . . Dean last year was so effectivein his three innings that the American leaguers didn't hit the ball out ofthe infield. . . . Against this trio McCarthy probably will use VernonGomez, Bob Grove, and Tommy Bridges.

President William Harridge of the American league was the first of thebaseball officials to arrive. . . . He was accompanied by Mrs. Harridge andFred Ringley of Chicago. . . . Mr. Harridge canceled plans to attend adouble-header between the Senators and Athletics when he learned it wasraining in Philadelphia at noon. . . . AU of the clubs in the Americanleague will have front office representation at the game except the WhiteSox. . . . W. O. Briggs, president of the Detroit Tigers, hurried home froma European vacation to be here for the spectacle. . . . Every ticket hasbeen sold except 500 bleacher seats, which will go on sale tomorrowmorning. . . . President Clark Griffith of the Senators held back thatnumber to thwart speculators.

Beilfuss Natatorium, 1725 NorthSpringfield avenue, which for a num-ber of years has been productive ofa number of fine swimmers, will berepresented in the eighth annual Chi-cagoland 100 yard swimming races bya team of 69 boys and girls. Theentry was filed by Director W. Ger-hard. All will compete in the sec-tional trials at California park, 3901North California avenue, next Sun-day afternoon.This is the largest team entry reo

ceived, but the clerks, tabulating thelists, so far have been unable tocatch up with either yesterday's orSunday's mail. There are 29 girlslisted from Beilfuss and 40 boys. Allten age classes are represented, fromClass A for those 11 ad 12 years old,to Class E for those 19 and over.

This Is the Last Day.This is the last day in which you

may file entry for the preliminaryraces this week-end, which will beheld on Saturday afternoon at Cer-mak pool, 7600 Ogden avenue, Lyons,Ill., and at Sherman park, 52d streetand Racine avenue, and on Sundayafternoon at Wheal an pool, Milwau-kee and Devon avenues, and at Cali-fornia park, 3901 North Californiaavenue.From the clerks' lists of entries it

is apparent the Sunday preliminarieswill be much larger than those onSaturday afternoon. This undoubted-ly is due to the preference for Sun-day afternoon, but the four-sectionalsystem does furnish swimmers in allparts of Chicago with a convenientcenter at which to win their goldqualifying badges which entitlesthem to compete for the champion-ships at Whealan pool on July 18.

It Will Be a Large Field.One hundred and eighty swimmers,

under this system will compete forthe championships that day. Thenumber of qualifiers from the foursectionals will be apportioned accord-ing to the number of swimmers.Quite possibly three or four willqualify in each of the ten age classesfrom Sherman park and Cermak pool.This would leave five or six qualify-ing positions open in each of the tenclasses at California park and Wheal-an pool.Should it be necessary, the list of

the morning game. After White hadsent a fly to Kreevich, Rogell walkedafter a three and two count.

with a triple to right center, butwouldn't have scored except for Bon-ura's error, a rarity in that it was ona thrown ball. After Fox's triple Bol-ton fanned and Appling tossed outPoffenberger. White bounced to Ap-pling for what should have been thethird out. It was at this juncturethat Appling's sidearm curve got awayfrom Bonura, Fox scoring and Whitereaching second. Rogell drove a horn-er into the upper deck of the rightield grandstand, scoring behind White.

Bonura's Bat Fails.The Sox got in scoring position in

each of the first three innings andin first and third innings Bonuraended the threats with Radcliff onthird, the second time supplying thethird out with a strikeout.When the Sox trotted into the

arena at the start of the home third,Kennedy was not among those pres-ent. Cain had taken his place. Cainwalked Greenberg, then settled downto four innings of perfect pitching be-fore going out for a pinch batsmanat the start of the seventh.In the sixth, the Sox cut the Tiger
