By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The Texas League won most of
the games but the Mexican
League took the all-star tussle in
the first phase of the Pan Ameri-
can Association interlocking sche-
dule.
There were 72 games played in
Mexico, each Texas League club
meeting each Mexican League
team twice, and the Texas League
won 39, the Mexican League 32,
with one tie.
But Sunday the Mexican Lea-
guers won the all-star game play-
ed in Mexico City 8-3 with a
four-run splurge in the first inn-
ing while 14,500 fans looked on.
Then the two leagues headed
for Texas where the second phase
of the Pan American, • Association
will start Tuesday night.
Seventy - two games will be
played in Texas and a second all-
star game will be played July
30 at San Antonio.
Mexican League pitching and

story of the All-Star game at
Mexico City Sunday.

and Roman Ramos pitched for
the Mexican League with Moreno
getting credit for the victory.

The store owners in your comhitlnity are in a!
pretty good position to understand your
needs and wants—and theiimportance of your
saving for them.
At the start of World War II, they had a
vital opportunity to stimulate saving—and
at the same time help meet a dire need of
their Nation—through the promotion of
U.S. Savings Bonds.
Super Bond,Salesmen. Few groups in
America were as vrell qualified to promote
Savings Bonds as the retailers. They sold over
the counter, staged street rallies and parades,
sponsored movie premieres, and used all their
selling talents to help speed ithe Victory.
The job they did has paid big bonuses. Since
1941 Americans have invested $121 billion
in Savings Bonds, spent $78 billion for the
things they wanted as the Bonds matured,
and are still holding a large $43 billion re-

Ramos, the Poza Rica pitcher
who figured in one of the most
unusual teats in baseball history,
worked the last four innings for
the Mexicans and allowed only
three hits.
Ramos pitched a no-hit, no-run
game Friday night when Poza
Rica beat Austin 11-0. Saturday
night Larry Maxie pitched a no-
hit, no-run game as Austin beat
Poza Rica 5-0.
It was believed to have been
the first time in baseball his-
tory for consecutive ho-hit, no-
run games.
The 72 games in Mexico1 drew

In a pair of high-scoring Junior
League games Saturday night, the
Packers defeated the Buddies 14-3
and the 500s blasted the Harvest-
ers 13-7.
The standings were changed
only slightly. Remaining in a tie
for first place, with five wins
and four losses each, are the
Giants and the Paper Hangers.
After Saturday night’s action,
the 500s and the Packers each

gest inning of the night. Scoring-
runs were Tiemann, Moehnke.
Artieschofsky, Jenkins and Ko-
var.
Another four runs were added

two runs in the fifth, with Tie-
mann and Moehnke crossing
home plate.
