"I certainly am bending every

in an attempt to capture one of
the all-expense prize trips to the

Hopper.
’’Of course, we are up against
some stiff rivalry, since every
dealer of the Goodrich Company
throughout thejnountry is also eligi-
ble, and from what I have learn-
ed. hundreds are Just as anxious
as we are here to win one of the
prize trips.
"This means that we are redoub-

one of our friends who deal with
us. and new ones as well to swell
our sales total during the months
of the contest so there will be no
stone unturned in our quest of vic-

<By Associated Press*
It took tiie biggest swap baae-
ball has had in year* to shake the
Detroit Tigers out of their sleep-
_ , - ________

stirred
Until Saturday night when they
traded Vernon Kennedy and five
other players for Buck Newsom
and three others, the Tigers had
won only one of 11 games since
May 1
80 the double damper they slap-
ped on the Bt Louie Browns, 14-4
and 7-4, yesterday may have made
some of their future foes tremble
Yesterday’s games, witnessed by
16,328 fans, largest turnout for the
Browns In a dozen years, were de-
cided by tiie clouting of Hank
Greenberg and Rudy York. The big
first baseman hit his fifth and sixth
homes of the year with one on
base in the first game and York
delivered a pinch home run with
the buses loaded in the ninth in-
ning of the night cap.

games Red Ruffing shut out the
Philadelphia Athletics, 10-0. on four
hits and the slugging of his yellow
New York Yankees, for his fifth
fifth victory without defeat; young
Bob Feller won his sixth gamq,
against one defeat, beating the Chi-
cago White Sox. 9-4, on six hits,
and the Boston Sox outrallled the
Washington Senators, 5-4 in the

Carl Hubbell made his 1939 bow
as a starting pitcher and beat the
Phillies. 2-1, when Pinch hitter Ken
Odea homered in the ninth Lou

ed up his fifth win against one
setback by shutting out Brooklyn
1-0. The Pittsburgh Pirates cuffed
their Chicago Cubs, Jinx, 6-2, and

It Is u liquid that penetrates and

As soon as you apply H F you may
find that the Itching Is qulcklv re-
