With that final hearty heave. Linden took second and enough points to give Sutherlin the third place spot in the meet. Central Point and Illinois Valley took the lion's share of first places. Of the 14 possible. Illinois Valley had five. Central Point had four, Sutherlin picked up three and both Eagle Point and Myrtle Creek took one. Mvrtle Creek's onlv win wa a satisfying one. The Illinois Valley relay team was pegged as the best in the meet since it had tied for second in the Ilayward relays. In addition, Bob Kestern, Illinois Val-l.-y anchor man had defeated Myr tle Creek's John Jones in both the 1D0 tnd 220. Jones got a two-step lead on Kestern on tile last lap and Kestern burned himself out trying to catch him. He never suc ceeded. Summary- Polo vault Klnf 'CPt. Duncan irp,. Thorpo IMC. Hacknay iF.P'.

This is the year the weary old Cards were supposed to fade away. Wasn't their tilth place finish of last year the tipoff? With manager Marty Maron on the nactive list, they were sure to be left in the starting gate. Pennant talk flooded the Giants i training camp at St. Petersburg. Iyeo Durocher had each of his pitchers go the route in two prac tice games to get reaay lor a xasi start. Giant Fans Discovtr But nothing is sure in baseball as Giant fans sadly are discov ering. Nothing Durocher does works. The hitters don't hit, the j fielders don't field. Even his ace. Larry J a risen, has lost his last two starts. There is near panic in the Polo Grounds as the Giants stumble home for a series with Boston and a trip to Brooklyn before the west ern teams move in. And St. Lous reflects enthu siasm for the stou tcomplete game pitching for Poholsky, Max Lanier LI--! Ra-vl.un w-h hiva al. runs in the last 27 innings. Good Judgement Marion was sure about Poholsky in Florida. As sure as a fresh man manager can be about a rookie. He pitched him opening day. passing over the big names on his staff. Poholsky lost the opener but vindicated Marion's judgement last night wth his two hit 4-0 shutout of Pittsburgh. Solly Heirus, Marion's shortstop replacement, drove home the first run and scored the second. Knos Slaughter nicked Cliff Chambers for his first homer in the sixth. Ken Heintzelman snuffed out Giants in the pinches to pitch Philadelphia past New York, 2-1. He gave eight hits and walked six but left 12 stranded. Twice the Giants loaded the bases with only one out. Although Larry Jansen gave up only five hits, the Phils took full advantage of them. Richie Ash- burn'a single following Eddie Wait kus' leadoff double in the first brought a run. Hamner'a double drove in Del Ennis who singled in the fourth. Dodger Hoodoo The old home run ball, a Brook lyn Dodger hoodoo for years, rose up again to cost them a ball game. Boston's Sam Jethroe hit one into tha seats with one on and two out in the ninth for a 6 5 edge over reliefer Clyde King. Just like Sid Gordon did the day before in an earlier inning off reliefer Carl Er skine. Vera Bkkford was the winner. Ted Kluszewskl, deep in an early spring slump, snapped out of it with a two-run homer in the eighth for Cincinnati's 4 3 edge over the Chicago Cubs. Ewell Blackwell. working on re lief, picked up win No. 1 at Paul Minner's expense. Spec Shea. New York Yankee star of 1947, was the big news in the American league with a four hit, 40 shutout of Philadelphia. The big righthander walked five but left 10 A s stranded. Yank Runs Billy Johnson had a hand In all four Yank runs with a double, single and walk. Three times the A s loaded the bases as they ran their acoreless inning string to 18. The Chicago White Sox split two with St. Louis, winning 8-6 hut losing 7 4 in the second game. The Browns had lost 13 straight, in cluding nine spring exhibitions, to the Sox before they won the second for reliefer Ned Carver. Al Zanlla and Eddie Robinson of the Sox and Ken Wood and Jim Delsing of the Browns homered in the opener won hv Dick Little field over Duane Pillette.
