THE BEND TWO SECTIONS Dodgers Can't Win, Despite Fact That They Purchased Johnny Schmitz to End Jinx By Carl Lundquist - M P U.1I...1 . New York, June 21 U.P - ueai me uougers any more oecause ne is one oi mem now but that doesn't stoD the Dodirers from beatinir him. Schmitz used to have an incredible charm over the Dculrcrs. beating them in- key games, time after time, when he was with the Cubs. So the Dodgers bought him to put a stop to me nonsense. Dut things certain Iv didn't work out anv better ior tnem in his first bnlHantT start for Brooklyn last nitrht. He pitched two-hit ball for seven innings in a duel of left les in the Cincinnati Rhine- land with biir Ken Raffens- berger, but lost it 2 to 1 when defensive lapses gave the Reds two cneap runs. Misjudging a drive bv Bob Usher, which went for a double in the third inning, rookie left field er Dick Williams, then played the relay so awkwardly that Bobby Adams scored from ' first with Clncy's first run. A homer by Roy Campanella In the fifth tied it up at 1-1, but Raffensberger himself scored the winning run in the Cincinnati half tf the inning. - A wild throw by Rocky Bridges on Raffy's grounder put the pitch er on second and he went to third on a passed ball. Usher, who made two of the three hits of Schmitz, f lied out to bring in the second run. KariensDerger gave up only four hits in winning his sixth game. The Yankees also won a game cheaply, 2 to 1, from the White box In New York, cutting their American - league lead to 2 games, i-ianK Bauer biooped a single just past shortstop Chico Carrasquel in the eighth to score the deciding run after lefty Bill Pierce had walked two batters. Ed Lopat gave up 10 hits but won his 10th game, while Pierce yielded only five and had to settle for his fifth defeat. Other Results ; In other American league games, Cleveland walloped. Bos ton, 14 to 8, Washington defeated St. Louis, 5 to 1. and the Ath letics won from the Tigers. 5 to 4 after Detroit took the opener, 7 The Phillies topped Pittsburgh, to 0, as Bubba Church shaded Bob Friend in another fine duel, Warren Soahn blanked the Cubs. 9- to 0,' as Tommy .Holmes, made his debut as Boston manager, and the Cards topped the Giants. 4 to 2 as George Munger struck out nine oatters. Bob: Avila hit three homers. double, and a single as Cleveland made six runs in the first inning, then kept up the onslaught in Boston. Larry Doby also homered for Cleveland and Claude Vollmer delivered one for Boston as Early Wynn, in a rocking-chair job, coasted to a 15-hit victory. Hudson Recovered Sid Hudson, laid up with a torn side muscle for the first month of the season, showed he had recov ered completely, by pitching a strong five-hitter over-the Browns. Philadelphia made full use of four hits to win the second game from Detroit. Steve Souchock got the most productive blow off win ner Bobby Shantz, a two-run homer. In the opener, the Tigers picked up three runs in the first inning and that was enough for Freddie Hutchinson, whose shut out was destroyed only when Lou Klein hit a ninth inning two-run homer. Church received brilliant center field help from Richie Asburn, who made one fine catch after an other. In winning his seventh game, Church gave up nine hits, while Friend yielded only four in defeat, but two of these came In the sixth when Ashburn bunted safely, went to second on a sacri fice, to third on Granny Ham ner's single, and scored when Ralph Kiner's throw to the plate was too late after he juggled a drive by Bill Nicholson.

Pitchef Johnny Schmitz can't Sporfs Parade By Oscar Fraley (United Pr Sparta Writer) ' New York, June 21 F-Nlne merciless minutes finally proved to Jake LaMotta today that peo ple are. important and money isn t a complete substitute for friendship- r Jake for a decade operated on the theory that a man's best friend is himself and everybody ease man t even aeserve a can, That was before the night on February 14 In Chicago when Sugar Ray Robinson- battered the middleweight crown irom ; his head. What started as a great iisiic encounter wound up. in an- otncr ht. valentine s massacre. But, no matter what they said aooui jane, ne was dead game. " Took Punishment For three rounds he took those Killing Koblnson head shots and still didn't go down. And, when (t was over the crowd gave him an ovation Jake's eyes. wmen reaiiy opened Jake, the human tank with the umraltar law. is afraid now that the respect and near-affection he. earned irom the fight fans in that one bout mav not last - "All they want," he insisted bit terly as he prepared for his lteht heavyweight encounter with Irish Bob Murphy next week, "is to see me get my block knocked off.' It s a new deoarture for the Bronx Bull. For years he was a mean and surly man who answer ed everv Question with a unm-i. In the ring he was a cruel and Drurai workman. Out of it he was man strictlv looking out for LaMotta. - That was a hangover from the days of his youth on New York's lower east side. Then he was a fat, awkward youngster- from a large family, -hoping; somehow, lo beat the rap of oovertv. Jake did it, and the hard way. The other tough vounpsters laughed at him when the pudgy 190-pound boy announced he was going to be a fighter. Jake did, and he was a good one. But he did it behind an icy front, a man strictly without emotions. Financially he did well. But in the matter of friendship he was a bad also-ran. He was the only man to beat Robinson, and all it got him was derision when he couldn't accomplish the feat again. He won the middleweight title, but the victory was tainted because the well-liked Marcel Cpr. dan bowed out with a dislocated, siiuuiuer. Always Jake was the villain. and he asked for it. Sportswrit ers who had tried to be friendly were snubbed. Today he wants to talk to them, but not too manv feel the same way anymore. uuaona Knows that although they hated him. thev still resneot- ed his ability in the ring. Now, that he no longer is a champion, he Is afraid that even the respect will go. so the emotional struggle rag es behind that face of brown marble. Murohv. the man he faces in the start of his drive for a light heavyweight title fight, is an idolized war hero. Jake is just LaMotta.

They've won more, than they've lost ana tney are only 3ft games away from Seattle's lead. But tne baseball sharpies won't pay much attention to them as pen nant material. . Yet the Oaks have the kind of a team that can erupt with big innings to win ball games. They got 11 in one Irame earlier this year to wax Portland. And they ieea on on sad sam Jones last night to score five times in one stanza and defeat San Diego. Newcomer Lorenzo Cabera's double was the big blow of the big frame. ,.
