Rodgers, Brower Picked Feller's 17th Win Lulls Tribe Fears All suspicions that Bob Feller's steady work during the first halt of the season had worn him down until he was Just another ordinary pitcher were dispelled last night before 32,820 In Cleveland's Municipal Stadium.

In the ninth with the score knotted, 22, Feller hit a 425-foot triple over Sam Chapman's head In center field and scored the tally which broke up the game on Lou Boudreau's single. Before Feller pitched hts glowing three-inning stint In the All-Star game, his work had evoked fears among Cleveland rooters.

Then the Browns knocked him out twice on June 30 and July 4. Even Manager Roger Pecklnpaugh began to wonder if he hadn't been working Feller too steadily and contemplated easing up on him a bit.

Grace Comlskey doesn't pretent to know, but she made it plain today that the Indefinite suspension of Chicago White Sox Manager Jimmy Dykes for using profanity seems unusually severe to her. "It's a man's game, Isn't It?" she asked. "Why, if John McGraw were around and in the American League he'd be out of the game every day if they're going to handle things this way." Mrs. Comlskey, president of the White Sox and its chief owner since the death of Louis Comlskey, said In an interview yesterday that she will back Dykes to the limit. She said she had never received any warning that Dykes' conduct was unacceptable to the American League, and added: "Jimmy is a snappy manager, but that's the kind we want.

As far as I have observed, he Is very well behaved. I confess I'm terribly sur. prised at his being Indefinitely suspended. At first I thought It was only for a day, and even that seemed quite a strong penalty." Dykes was suspended by League President Will Harrldge for a verbal set-to with Umpire Steve Basil a week ago. Dykes' story was that he just called Basil a "liar," using some choice expletives in a general way, but Harridge ruled this sort of thing had happened too often.

"I see in the league's statement that Jim Is supposed to have used strong language. Well. I've never heard Jim speak out of turn, and I've never had any complaints about it. I don't propose to let Jim down. We ll back him to the limit," Empire City Entries FOR SATIBOA FIRST RACE 81.500: claiming: two-year-olds: live and onehall lurlonas.
