Sam Jones Hurls.
First No-Hitter
By ASSOCIATED
It's jetting so that oiy some
time giys, castoffs and sore arms
ltch no-hitters in the 'major
leagues any more. The big name
pitchers just come close.
, Toothpick-chcwin' Sam Sories,
, a 6-4 righthander wjiom Cleveland
gave up onbt'eause of a sore
arm, added to the trend by hand
cuffing Pittsburgh's Pirates with
out a hit in a 4-0 victory for the
Chicago Cilbs Thursday.
It was the first no-hitter sine
last June 12, when Jim Wilson
stopped Philadelphia cold 2-0 for
the Milwaukee Braves.
1 The most recent no-hit success
before Wilson's was the 6-0 job a
lad named Bobo Holloman hung
on the Athletics for the Browns
in 1953. He did it in his first start
for St. Louis, but won only two
more that season while losing
seven. From there he trailed off
to the minors.
You have to go back to 1952
before you find names like Virgil
Trucks and Carl Erskine in the
no-hitter list. Since then, the big
guys in the majors have just
missed.
Jones, 29, made it tough 'on him-

self,at Wrigft Field Thursday by
walking the bates fnil with jione
out in the ninth. 1
Then he dug deep and threw
jiftt one moa? pitch outside the
strike zone mule .running Disk
Groat, Roberto Clemente and
Frank Thomas to become the first
Cub to hurl a no-hitter in 40 years
and the first Negro ever to do it
in the majors.
Jones, part of the winter deal
that sent Ralph Kiner to Cleve
land, walked seven and fanned
six. The Cubs backed him up
nicely in the field and tagged
loser Nelson King and Vern Law
for, 15 hits, one Ted Tappe's hom
er.
CRANDALL HOMERS
The lone other National League
game also was spectacular. Del
Crandall broke it up in the 12th
with a home run off Ed Roebuck
his first hit in 24 at bat that
gave Milwaukee a 2-1 victory over
Brooklyn. The Dodgers now have
lost two straight, after winning 22
of 24.
Rain postponed Philadelphia at
Cincinnati and New York at St.
Louis.
In the American, Maury McDer
mott and Washington broke
Cleveland's winning streak at six
games by a 3-0 count, beating
rookie Herb Score despite only
two hits off the lefty in six inn
ings. Chicago beat Baltimore 6-2
with four runs in the ninth and
Boston whacked Kansas City 12-7.
Detroit and New York were idle.
At Milwaukee, Gene Conley
went all the way for the Braves,
hooking up in a duel with Carl
Erskine for 11 innings. Erskine
was lifted for a pinchhitter and
Roebuck came on in the 12th.
Crandall smacked his second
pitch.
Conley, now 4-1, gave six hits
to Erskine's nine. Hank Aaron's
second-inning homer and Sandy
Amoros' blast in the fourth took
care of the only other scoring.
Danny O Connell s terrific stop of
Duke Snider's smash helped check
Brooklyn in a rocky lllh for Con
ley, who got Jackie Robinson on
a pop up to end it with the bases
loaded.
SCORE TIES TURLEY
Cleveland couldn't do much of
anything against McDermott, who
granted just four hits in' his best
performance since joining the
Senators in a 1953 winter deal
with Boston.
Score fanned seven, tying the
Yankees' Bob Turley for the ma
jor league lead with 57, but walks
got him in trouble. Mickey Ver
non singled home the first run
after a walk and a wild pitch.
A walk, stolen base, Ed Filz Ger
ald's infield single and an error
scored another in the fourth. The
third run came off Art Houtte
man, who replaced Score after
the sixth.
The White Sox moved to within
two games of the first-place Tribe
on a walk, three singles and Jim
Rivera's two-run double in the big
ninth inning. Harry Dorish was
the winner.
Boston kicked up its first real
storm in a long while, smacking
15 hits off three A's pitchers. Vic
Raschi, attempting a comeback,
was jarred for seven runs in the
first two innings. Gene Stephens
and Jackie Jensen homered for
four of Boston's five runs in the
second. Gus Zernial's ninth and
10th homers and Bill Renna's
fourth accounted for the A's runs
as Ike Dclock won it with help
from Tom Hurd.

BILL DELLINGER
Alcefs Bailey Again
Ducks Slate
Sports Day
On Saturday
A rematch in the friendly ri-
valry between Oregon milers Bill
Dellinger and Jim Bailey plus the
final scrimmage of the spring
football sessions will highlight
the annual Webfoot Spring Sports
Day at Hayward Field Saturday.
Bailey and Dellinger, who tan
gled for the first time last week
at Vancouver with the Australian
soph nosing out the NCAA de
fending champion in 4:15.0, are
favored to lead the Ducks to an
easy win' over Oregon State in
the final meet of the season.
The activities get underway at
10:30 a.m. with Coach Len Casa
nova dividing his squad into
Greens and Whites for the final
day of action prior to the fall
opening of the 1955 grid season.
Several of the Ducks, guards
Reanous Cochrane and Jack Po
cock and halfbacks Dick James
and Chuck Osborne, are sidelined
with injuries and illness. Major
interest lies in the sophomores
and junior college transfers who
are battling for a place on the
squad as replacements for the 16
lettermen, including eight start
ers, who are not returning from
the 1954 team which finished
third in the Pacific Coast Con
ference.
Several meet records are in
jeopardy when the Duck and Bea
ver trackmen meet at 2 p.m. with
the Frosh-Rook meet scheduled
to be run in conjunction with the
varsity affair. Bailey and Del-
linger can both crack the mile
mark of 4:19.3 set by Al Martin
of Oregon, Ken Reiser could eas
ily lower his own mark of 9:30.3
in the two mile, Jack Moad could
crack the shot put mark of 49
feet 2Vs inches set in 1937, and
Martin Pedigo could break the
broad jump standard of 23 feet
8'4 inches established in 1939.
In other Saturday action the
Oregon varsity and frosh tennis
players move to Corvallis for the
final meeting with Oregon State.
The Duck varsity will attempt to
sew up second place with its best
record in several years and the
Ducklings will attempt to finish
their season undefeated.
In Frosh baseball, the Duck
lings and Oregon State Rooks
wind up their season at Corvallis
in the fourth game of the 1955
