4 Shutouts Mark
Opening Gaines In
Major Leagues
Vender Meer Blanks Sr. Louis
Champions in Eleven-Inning
Mound Duel WlHi Cooper
tBy the Associated Press)
If opening, day In the major
leagues was any criterion, (his
may be the greatest pitchers' year
in uuseoan nisiory.
Four games, tour shutouts, two
of them 1-0, one of them 11 in
nings! Weather conditions permitted
only half of the olght scheduled
inaugural games to be played
yesterday, and held down atten
dance at these contests to 55,.
021 fans, but classic pitching
made the day worth remember
ing. .
Looking at the day's business
in composite there was a total of
only 11 runs, 42 hits of which just
nine were lor more than one
base, and upptill the seventh in
ning there had been but three
runs scored. '
Thev most magnificent mound
show was given in Cincinnati,
where Johnny Vander Meer and
Mort Cooper dueled for 11' in
nings before the Reds finally
squeezed 'in front of the1 world
champion St. Louis Cardinals 1-0.
Vander Meer, who could look
forward .to his greatest year if
he were not awaiting a call for
induction, held the Cardinals to
two hits, both of them singles in
the first three innings. In one
superb stretch he retired 21 con
secutive batters, most of whom
never eveni got the ball out of
the infield. . '
Cooper was In occasional
trouble, but he worked out of his
jams and up till the 11th had al
lowed only four hits- Then Frey
beat out an infield hit, was sacri
ficed to second and came sprint
ing home on a single by Marshall.
Bagby. Blanks Tigers
A struggle almost as spectacu
lar was staged In Cleveland as the
Indians nosed out the Detroit
Tigers, 1-0, with a run in the
ninth. Bagby, who had tamed the
Tigers in last year's opener, again
was the star. He held Detroit to
three hits, and drove in the win
ning run with a long fly.
The veteran Tommy Bridges
made it a battle, spacing six
Cleveland hits, but he couldn't
stoD the Indians' battery.
The Pittsburgh Pirates hand
cuffed the Chicago Cubs, 6-0,
with Siwell scattering three hits.
BETTER RETURNS ,
ON CROPS
Higher support prices, which
replace incentive payments for
three years, have been announc
ed as follows: Dry edible peas,
$.1.05 for No. l's, $5.40 for No. 2;
dry beans, $6.50 for most varie
ties, except limas and kidneys,
which will brine S7.50 tier hun
dred; flaxseed, $2.85 pet bushel. f DerringWrimaking , his debut In
Incentive payments will be made
on potatoes .and commercial
vegetables on 'the acreage be
tween 90 and 110 per cent of the
farm's goal. Payments rate for
vegetables is $50 an acre; for po
tatoes, 50 cents a bushel on the
normal yield.
FARM LABOR PICTURE
The week's farm, labor front
developments Include: First con
tingent of Mexican workers en
route to the northwest to help
sugar beet growers. Close to 1800
Mexicans are arriving weekly in
California and Arizona. This rate
will be increased' until between
35,000 and 50,000 are on hand to
meet harvest peaks In the eight
western states. More families are
arriving from mid-south areas to
work on Oregon and Washington
dairy and vegetable farms. Se
lective service boards will pro
vide county USDA War board
with names of registrants in cer
tain classes who have had farm
experience and who are not now
in essential jobs. With possible
army induction as an alternative,
skilled farm workers thus located
will be asked to take dairy farm
Jobs. '
TRACTOR REPAIRS
Manufacturers of crawler trac
tor parts have been directed to
allocate 20 per cent of their pro
duction for essential civilian
uses, including agriculture. This
should relieve the shortage caus
ed by heavy military demands,
but because of the large back
log orders for parts, the effect of
this regulation may not be felt
for a month or so.
TIRES FOR TRACTORS
Owners of steel-wheel tractors
may convert to rubber if they can
show that the tractor must be
moved over-the-road between
farms, or that the tractor was
purchased after May 1, 1942,
and its use is seriously handi
capped by the soil or topography
on the farm on which it is operat
ed. Tire certificates will be issued
by OPA rationing boards to own
ers certified by the county USDA
War board. -

Portland Beavers
Ousted From First
Place in League
(By the Associated Press)
The four-day old Pacific Coast
league baseball season saw one
team, Portland, shunted out of
tho 1.000 Pet. column yesterday,
and two teams, Seattle and Holly
wood, still unable to break Into
the win column.
Sacramento, 1942 champion, un
corked a new pitcher who lifted
the Solons from the lost column
with a 3 to 0 victory over Port
land. He was Clem Drelsewerd,
who pitched four-hit ball.
Seattle tried hard against San
Diego, losing 3-2 in 11 innings.
Salkeld, batting for Pitcher Dll
breck, provided the winning
blow, a single which scored Jen
sen. The Rainiers outhit the vic
tors 10 to 9, but San Diego's er
rorless ball contributed to the vic
tory, Sah Francisco joined San Die
go as the only undefeated teams
in the league by beating Holly
wood 51.
At Los Angeles the Angels and
Oakland pummeled each other's
pitchers merrily before Los An
geles came through for an 8-7
victory.
The Sacramento-Portland game
demonstrated the kind of rookie
talent the league has been re
cruiting to replace veterans gone
to war. Earl Peterson, young
catcher from Pocatello, Idaho,
lifted the ball over the left field
fence in tho sixth Inning for the
Solon's third run. It wasn't need
ed to win, but it was impressive.
The United States has loaned
Latin-American republics more
than $35,000,000 to speed con
struction of the Pan-American
highway.
