LOU GEMRIG BENCMES SELF TO END GREAT IRON-MAN STREAK

DETROIT Mich, (UP) Columbia Lou Gehrig's great iron-man baseball record was abruptly cut short yesterday at 2130 consecutive games, and his mates took the occasion to go on a scoring spree and pound out 22 runs against the liap less Detroit Tigers.
