In Zero Battles

New York, May 28 Utt Morton
Cooper's American league jinx
still plagued him today his four
hit shut debut with the Braves
rated only second billing in Bos
ton because the incredible Dave
Ferriss of the Red Sox topped the
nerformance with a one-hitter.
Cooper always has had trouble
with the American league in
world series and all-star games, so
, it was no surprise that even wun
a 4 to 0 triumph over Cincinnati
he was hexed out of the headlines
by Ferriss, who gave the White
Sox just one dinky single in win
ning, 7 to 0.
Ferriss lost out on a no-hitter
only because outfielder Bob John
son barely missed making a shoe
string catch on iony cuccinnono s
hit In the second inning. Only
three men reached base, the oth
ers on a walk and an error, and
two more were expired on double
plays, so Ferriss faced only 28
men, -
Topped Records
- Ferriss has topped all records in
both leagues for rookie pitchers
over a comparable period and at
his present pace ol .su earned
runs per game may break the ma
Jor league mark of .90 set by Ferd
inand Maurice Schupp of the 1916
Giants.
' Teammate Emmet O'Neill gave
Forriss a run for his money, hold
ing the White Sox to two hits In a
2 to 1 second game victory. The
. defeats ran Chicago's losing
Streak to six. -
Cooper, purchased from the
Cardinals last week, worked his
fork ball to near perfection
against the Reds. Only one player
reached third base and he strucK
out eight. Bucky Walters coun
tered Cooper's fine work, winning
the second game, 5 to 0, and hold
ing the Braves to three hits, for
Ills best effort of the season.- ,
I Is Hough Sunday
i It was a rough Sunday for last
gear's champions, both the Cards
ana Browns 1 losing aouoie-head-ers.
The humiliation was worse
for the Cards, who lost to the last
place Phillies at St. Louis, 2 to 0
and 3 to 2. t .;
; The Yankees ran their winning
streak to seven games and in
creased their - league lead to a
name and a half by besting the
Brownies twice In the rain, 10 to
9 in 14 innings, and 3 to 1 in an
eight inning second game called
because of darkness.
Three runs in the ninth gave
the Yankees a tie and they went
On to win with two runs In the
14th on singles by Oscar Grimes,
Frankle Crossettl and Bud Meth
eny after the Browns scored once
In their half.
The Pirates deflated the New
York Giants in the National, boat
ing the league leaders, 16 to 4, In
the first game and leading them,
. 10 to 5, In a suspended second
game, called In the eighth because
of the Pennsylvania curfew. The
unfinished game will be complet
ed today. The Bucs made 26 runs
and 31 hits In the two games.
Ends In Deadlock
The Cubs won and tied against
the Dodgers at Chicago, taking
the opener, 6 to 1, behind Ray

Losing Headway.,

The Pacific coast league base

threatened to become a run-away,
has developed Into an old-fash

the challengers closing in for the
kill. ;. , , ; .
After holding a six-game edge
over second-place Seattle as of
May 7, the Portland Beavers have
been shoved all over the lot and
finished this week by dropping a
4-2 series to the once-lowly San
t ranclsco beats. The result Is that
the manager Marv Owen's club
now holds oinly a one-half game
advantage over Ihe rising Seattle

And close on the heels of the
Rainlers are the Oakland Acorns,

New York, May 28 ill'i They
came 38,378 strong, all curious
to see the kid with the empty
sleeve and they stayed for more
than five hours In dismal rain to
give him a thunderous ovation.
The big town got sentimenia)
over one-armed pete Cray, tim
ing him In as one of its own.
which Indeed he Is, since only it
few blocks away from Yankee
Stadium, the scene of his trium
phant return yesterday, he once
played baseball on a semi-pro
sand lot.
There was nothing sensational
about Gray's day on this dark
gray day, except the fact that
he could be out there playing at
all. It was almost beyond bellpf
that this wasp-waisted Brownie
outfielder with the jutting jaw
could be playing baseball in the
major leagues witn a champion
ship team and doing -more than
his share to keep that team In a,
contondlng position. g
Ho couidn t make a move with
out drawing a cheer from the
crowd. Obviously nervous as he
stalked each batter In left field,
he removed his glove countless
times to stroke his head or hitch
at his belt.
And he had reason to be tense.
Failure to hit had prompted Man
ager Luke Sewell to bench him
so he didn t start in the first
game, but went lo left field to
replace Boris Martin In the sev
enth In response to Bronx chants
of "We want Gray" from the
Bronx rooters. Martin, a long
ball hitter, had made a homer in
his previous time at bat.
In the stands were his parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Peter Gray, who
came from Nantlcoke, Pa. to see
their son piny big league hall for
the first time. Perfect balance
and timing, his chief assets
afield, were made difficult by
the slippery underfootlng from
the day long drizzle.
So It was only natural In the
last of the ninth that the peski
est of tlie Yankees, Frankle
CroseUi, sent a singing single in
Gray's direction and the kid
hobbled the play, the bases were
filled and two runs came home
to tie the score, though neither
came as a result of the error.

Gray fielded the ball perfectly
but dropped it as he flipped off
his glove and attempted to throw
to the infield, permitting the run
ners to move up to second and
third.
The game went on Into extra
innings and Gray batted three
limes, .. hitting two sharp fly
balls to the outfield and walking.
Atieia, ne naa one more chance, a
long fly, which he handled per-.
ieciiy. j .
He was benched In the second
game but had his "big moment"
of the day when Sewell sent him
in as a pinch hitter for Catch
er t rank Mancuso. He . came
through with a sharp single to
right about six feet Inside the
foul line and seconds later went
down in the mud at second base
in a beautifully executed slide as
Don Gutteridge lilt into a double
play. Weary and bespattered he
got up to leave the game and
was acclaimed the standing trib
ute wi. the most enthusiastic lor
any player since Babe Ruth. ,:,'.
'When he walked in the first
game, he cat-footed it far off
base, worrying Pitcher Jim Tur
ner so much that he also walked
the next batter.
Owner Donald Barnes, proud of
the youngster whose right arm
was amputated near the shoulder
when he fell off a grocery truck
as a six-year-old, said he was
"definitely satisfied" over his per
formance. .
"If It hndn't been for this wet
field, he would have done much
better," Barnes saldv . "He was
under great pressure with all of
this big crowd and with hffi
mother and dad there. But any
impression that he isn't a big
leaguer is strictly his own, be
cause I know he Is."
New York thinks so too. They
won't forget the kid with the
empty sleeve for a long time.

Nelson, Snead
Duel Not at End
West Orange, N. J., May 28
'III The debate still raged today
as to whether Byron Nelson or
Slammin' Sammy Snead was the
unofficial golf champion of the
world their 72-hole match for
the crown having proved only
that the payoff still is in the
putting.
Nelson, who lost one down to
Snead Saturday in a 36-hoIe
medal test, came back yesterday
over the rolling acres of Essex
county country club to win their
36-hole match play test, 4 and 3.
But nothing was conclusive ex
cept that It was raining to a tune
that suited Nelson, the Toledo
umbrella man who was elated at
the array of bumbershoots; that
Nelson didn't carry one of his
products; that Snead sported a
pretty pink parasol with red
trimmings, and that Snead could-
n t but a putt over two feet.
Nelson Hot
Nelson was hot as a fire crack
er when they started their jaunt
over the drenched Orange moun
tain foothills and when he fin
ished the first nine five under par
he already was four up. That
went to six up before Snead won
two holes to finish the 18 four
down. He was only three down
at the end of 27 holes when his
putter failed him miserably and
on five straight holes he hung
his first putt on the lip and stood
there amazed as the ball refused
to drop.
