F "I hit him with a hard left

that I finally won the champion
shi but I might not have if God
hadn't been on my side. If you
keep putting your faith in God,
he will hear your prayers."
To "Fight Anyone" :
Waleott, who had lost four pre
vious championship matches, said
he would fight "anybody" now
that he is champion. He also said
he hoped he would be invited to
Sunday schools so he could "help
lead young people to religious

fight for 10 minutes, refusing to

backed down when ring officials
threatened to vacate Charles' title
and co-manager Jake Mintz sub

vocal antics.

Charles, who suffered a - deep
gash under his right eye and a

out of his career today.
"I don't understand what hap

"I don't remember being counted

Accidents-will happen. But I know
I can lick him when we fteht

Waleott broke Charles' winning
streak at 24 straight when he

Ellis Kinder Again Saves Day

New York, July 19 (U.E) Ellis Kinder's sturdy right arm
was holding the Boston Red Sox one length ahead of the field

could be that 37-year-old Ellis will be the "big man" in the

(Unltai Prw Snorts Writer
New York, July 19 (IPi Shap
ely Nancy Chaffee has won more
tennis trophies than she can
shake a -racquet at but every
time her "baby," Ralph Kiner,
hammers a home run, she breaks
the all-time record for the stand
ing broad jump.
Dark-haired Nancy stole the
show at Ebbets field yesterday
as her broad-shouldered boy
friend from Pittsburgh poled
three homers against the
Dodgers.
"Zowie," she yelled, "atta boy,
baby!"
She climaxed each shout with
a sudden leap reminiscent of
Jesse Owens In his prime.
"He's wonderful, simply won
derful," she bearned. "There's no
one like him." Then she watched
admiringly as Klner leisurely
circled the bases.
Already Engaged .
Each 'time Klner hit for the
circuit, Nancy alternately pound
ed and then embraced Pirate
secretary Bob Rice. The Pitts
burgh official is used to Nancy's
unbounded enthusiasm.
After Kiner had walloped a
homer in a recent game, Rica no
ticed Nancy's hysterics and pass
ed her a note which read:
"If you think so much ot the
guy, we can arrange for you to
meejt him after the game."
It was a gag, of course, since
the amiable, attractive 22-year-old
Nancy had met Kiner last
December and the two already
have announced their engage
ment. , Winner of the National indoor
1951 title among other tennis
laurels, Nancy admits, because of
Ralph, she now is more fond ot
baseball than she Is of tennis,
" "I remember seeing my first
major league game in pittsourgii
last May," she said. "I heard all
the women yelling and jumping
up and down whenever anything
exciting took place on the field
and I said to myself, "how dis
gusting can you get?"
"Now, I out-yell 'em all," she
volunteered, "and they tell me I
jump pretty high up in the air
whenever Ralph hits a h?me run."
Jusf back from Wimbledon
where she aompeted in the fa
mous tourney, the ebullient
Nancy, who halls from Ventura,
Calif., makes no secret about her
fondness for Kiner.
"I went out with a lot of nice
boys before I met Ralph," she
explains, "but they all were minor
leaguers by comparison.
"Frankly," she admits with a
smug grin, "I had the wrong
impression about Ralph before I
met him. I used to read in the
newspapers where he went out
with a show-girl once in awhile
and I thought he was one of those
men-about-iown.
"But he isn't that way at all.
He's quiet, considerate and a
genuinely fine person. He has
changed my whole conception
about professional athletes."
Nancy and Ralph have Tom
Harmon, the former Michigan all
America, to thank for their meet
ing. Nancy was helping Harmon
on a TV show in Hollywood and
the one-time gild great invited
the Pirate slugger to guest star.
"Ralph asked me for a date,"
recalls Nancy, "and that," she
puns, "was the beginning of our
nine-inning romance."

EIIU Gets Credit
Big, drawling Ellis got credit
for. his sixth victory of the seas
onbut Red Sox manager Steve
O'Neill says Kinder has saved at
least six more. This is relief hurl
ing ' of the type that Joe Page
used to carry the Yanks to the
1949 A.L. flag, and that Jim Kon
stantv used to bring the Phillies
the 1950 National league pennant.
Kinder was tossed into a typi-'
cal jam last night. Big Larry
Dobry of Cleveland had just
whacked a three-run double off
Bill Wight to cut Boston's lead to
4-3 and put the tying run at sec
ond base with two out. Kinder
retired the next five batters in a
row and then, after Bob Avila had
singled with one out in the ninth,
he struck out Doby and Luke
Easter to end the game.
Started as Duel
The game started as a duel be
tween Bob Lemon of the Indians
and rookie Leo Kiely of Boston.
Boston scored three times In the
fifth on Clyde Vollmer's 11th
homer, singles by Dom DiMaggio,
Johnny Pesky. Ted Williams, and
an error by Ray Boone. Boston
raised the margin to 4-0 with a
sixth-inning run on Vollmer's
walk. Buddy Rosar's single and
Doby's wild throw to third. Those
runs were enough, with Kinder
to call in from the bullpen.
Kiely was struck in the knee

Hornsby to Stay
In Seattle Job
Seattle, July 19 Rogers
Hornsby, manager of the Seattle
Rainiers, will not accept the man
ager's job with the St.' Louis
Browns of the American league.
"That's definite," Emil Sick,
owner of the Pacific Coast league
club said last night.
Sick made the announcement
following a telephone conversa
tion with Bill Veeck, owner of the
Browns. .
. "Hornsby will stay right here
in Seattle for the balance of the
1951 season and that's definite,"
Sick said. "He will stay here long
er than that If I have anything
to say about it."
Sick said he told Veeck it was
"out of the question" for Horns
by to go to the Browns immedi
ately. "I hope Hornsby wants to stay
with the Rainiers for several
years," said Sick. "We are pre
paring to, pay him a top salary
to stay."
Hornsby said, "Whatever Mr.
Sick says goes."
"I won't run out on my one
vear contract with Seattle,"
Hornsby said. "I'm glad to know
he wants me to go on managing
the Rainiers."

Fighting It Out
For League Lead
By Paul Cane v-
(Unltol Pro Suf( WriWr)
San Francisco. July 19 .-JU'i
"How do you like your pennant,
sir?" a timorous Pacific Coast
league' once asked Rogers Hoiui
by. 'Done easily, the Seattle man
ager snapped, and garnished
with' stars.
But today at another tabltt
Fred Haney, manager of the Hol
lywood i Stars, is coveting the
same entree Rainier-roasted.
The fans, soon will learn whose
command will be serviced. :
Haney brings his flickerland
squad to Seattle tonight to open
a five-game series with Rogers
Hornsby's Rainiers. The pennant
aspiring host club'holds a three-
game bulge over the equally
hungry invaders but this series,
definitely "crooshal," could per
manently i:x tne lasi standings.
Past Recalled ' . '
In 13 meetings between the
clubs this year, Seattle won sev
en games. The Rainiiis and
Stars, both sluggish periormc-rs
before their hadacol-like revivals
in May, now stand shoulders and
sliding pads above all other op
position. If the Rainiers or the Stars
don't win the 1951 PCL pennant,
the flag will go unclaimed. Third
place Los Angeles is 11 games
away.
Hornsby made things one game
tougher for Hollywood last night
when the Rainiers won a 10-in-nlng
ball game from San Fran
cisco, 7 to 6. Hollywood lost with
honor to Portland, 1 to 0, on
Eddie Baris home run; and Leon
Brinkopf's four-master gave Los
Angeles a 7 to 5 victory over San
Diego. Oakland and Sacramento
took the night off.
Pitchers in Battle
The Hollywood-Portland tussle
probably was the neatest pitch
ing battle of the year. Red Lynn,
the winner, and sidearmer Ben
Wade, the loser, each offered up
only i four hits. Barb's blow was
one of the four Wade permitted
and It cost him the game.
The Seal-Rainier extra-pa'nel
thingiwas a thriller, The lead yo
yoedback and fourth. San Fran
cisco took control with four runs
in the seventh, and Seattle came
right back with another quartet
m tne same frame, 'men injured
Joe Grace homered in the top of
the ninth to give the Seals the
tying run but Seattle's shortstop,
Alex Garbowski, doubled in the
bottom of the tenth to give the
Rainiers the game.
Homer in 9th
Brinkopf's homer came -in the
bottom of the ninth. The blow
cost sorrowful Sam Jones a vic
tory he pitched and batted to
get. The red-hairded negro cuf
fed a three-run homer to keep
himself in the game. And Har
vey Storey, his teamate, socked
a two-run circuit smash to give
him a brief lead.
TEAMS ADVANCE
Silverton, July. 19 iU'i Defend
ing champion Archer Blower &
Pipe of Portland and the Salem
