Whaley Excels, But Chiefs Win
The inspired effort of Washington first baseman George Whaley was not enough to prevent a loss, 11-5, to the Chicago Chiefs. Whaley went 4-5 with 2 home runs and 2 singles. He drove in 4 runs and scored twice. The winner was Vern Osborne, who threw 132 pitches over 7.2 innings. The left-hander was charged with 4 runs on 12 hits. The Chiefs bumped their record to 59-52 with this latest triumph.

Chicago used the hitting of Tom Spruill to pick up the win. The shortstop clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Chiefs on top, 3-0. For the game, Spruill had 1 home run and 1 single in 6 at-bats.

"We'll relax tonight and enjoy this win," said Spruill.
