"These great cranes travel to and fro, and as I drew the nearest I found the lines changing, but thought there was something wrong with me. So huge were they, and so silently and solemnly did they move, that I could not believe they were moving. This is the Pacific end of the lock - the last of the Canal." Joseph Pennell.

Home Runs Kept the American League leaders still at the head of the parade. At the left in the Traveler staff photo (by Russ Adams), are the three Indians who hit the homers that enabled Cleveland to beat the Red Sox, 3-1, last night at Fenway Park. Left to right, they are: Ralph Kiner, Al Rosen and Al Smith. At right in the AP Photo, is Joe Collins, New York Yankees first baseman, who hit two homers to account for four runs in yesterday's Yankee 5-4 victory over Chicago. Thus the Yankees remained within half a game of first-place Cleveland.
