MONDAY, MAY 2, 1949 THE BEND BULLETIN, BEND, OREGON PAGE THREE Newhouser Has Good Start in ; 30-Game Effort By Carl Luml(ulst (United PryKH Sport Writer) New York, May 2 Lefty Hal Newhouser was ahead of schedule today on the pitching time-table he hopes will bring him his most cherished goal in baseball a 30 victory season. The Detroit ace figures he could hit that mark by winning a little better than a game a week and, with less than two weeks of the season completed, he already has a 31 mark. That's the best start of his ca reer, even better than in 1944 when he won 29 games and lost but nine, just missing the magic mark which no big league pitcher has hit since Dizzy Dean of the Cards had a 30-7 season In 1934. No American league pitcher has had a 30-game season in 18 years, Lefty Grove of the Athletics be ing the last with his incredible 31-4 season in 1931. .; Luck Said Factor "A guy has to be plenty lucky and he has to have a hot streak when he wins a little oftener than a game a week," Newhouser said. "Of course you also have to ac count for the times when you aren't going so good, too." The American league's premier southpaw had to have a measure of that luck he mentioned yester day at Detroit when he won a 3 to 2 duel from Bob Lemon of Cleveland, who gave up only two hits. But one of those Tiger hits was a three-run first inning homer by Dick Wakefield and that gave Newhouser all the help he needed. He gave up eight hits, including two doubles and two triple. The White Sox, who have won seven of their first eight victories from the Browns, moved Into sec ond place at the expense of their Missouri cousins whom they de feated 7 to 6 and 14 to 11. Yankees Lose At New York the Yankees suf fered their first home defeat after seven victories, the Red Sox winning an 11 to 2 decision as Ted Williams hit a grand slam homer and Vern Stephens and Johnny Pesky got two-run hom ers. ' ' The Athletics crushed the Sen ators twice, 15 to 8 and 7 to 4, at Philadelphia. Bonus pitcher Johnny Anton elli won his first big league ball game as the Braves took over first place in the National league with 6 fo 5 and 4 to 2 vicfbfles over the Giants in Boston. The Phils, vacating last place, surprised the Dodgers for the third time in a row, winning a 4 to 2 victory in Brooklyn behind Russ Myer's eight-hit pitching. Harry (the Cat) Brecheen was n't as effective as usual, but he didn't need to be as the Cardinals got 15 hits to beat the Cubs, 8 to 3 in Chicago. Cincinnati's Reds made it three out of four over the Pirates by splitting a double bill, winning the second game, 5 to 2, behind Bud Lively's stout six-hit pitch ing after Pittsburgh took the opener, 10 to 4. Bend Trap Club Has Perfect Score The Bend trap club Sunday turned in its first perfect score of 75 In the current Oregon Journal trap shoot as five team members came up with perfect individual scores of 25. Everett Rambo, N. R. Gilbert, H. Hansen, Len Henderson, and M. L. Hunt each had perfect scores. Scores of 24 were made by Welsh Evans, Don Wiener, Vic Plath, and George Kruger. Lloyd McGill, J. C. Vandevert, Helen Watkins, and J. F. Mc Kay each had scores of 23. TWO ACES! Pittsburgh, May 2 lii Playing a morning round of golf, Melliot C.

N.Y. P Scar- head, which is Catharine creek's finny version of the cat with nine lives, is off on another year of providing -fishermen in this area with hard-luck tales. For seven straight seasons, Scarhead has come up from his Seneca lake habitat to the creek's spawning beds, nesting spot of the old rainbow trout. At least once during each of the seasons, the fabled fish has been on some angler's line. But not to stay. At the start .of the fishing sea son this year, bcarhead was hooked once again. Four persons with landing nets were ready for the take when one slipped, kicked the line and the wise old trout swam away to freedom once more. Scarhead got his name from the marks on his head left by the hooks and barbs of numerous un successful fishermen. On the rainbow's head Is a silver spoon, left when he first escaped from a Seneca' lake angler. - From other parts of his'head and body pro trude leaders, results ol other un successful attempts to land him.
