United Prow Spurts Writer .
K coming events cast their sha
dows before them, here is a warn
ing to American League pitchers.
Look out Ted -Williams has
found the range.
It was only an exhibition game,
but the Boston blaster can.e back
into action Monday night for the
first time since he went Into tem
porary retirement at the end of
the 1954 season and hit a home
run into the right field grandstand
in his second time at bat.
The Red Sox won the charity
contest from the world champion
Now York Giants, 4-3, and Wil
liams retired after three innings
of play. The game itself was called
after seven innings, both teams
being committed to catch trains
for Rames Tuesday night.'
Williams, who hopes he will be
able to get into the Red Sox lineup
regularly again by next week-eni.
said merely "it is nie to got off
to a good start but I'm afraid I
can't play right away."
"I'd like to play tonight but I'm
afraid I enn't' he said, "My legs
feel pretty heavy and my arms
are a little tired but my hands
icel pretty good."
Williams with his one big smash
after a wrong-field popper to left
in his first time at bat in the first
inning, also blasted two pre-gnme
homers in a contest with various
players on both sides. Willie Mays
of the Giants' hit one pro-game
homer.
Norm Zauchin, Boston rookie h'.t
two homers in the game and Bill
Taylor hit one for the Giants. Both
managers, Leo Durocher of the
Giants and Mike Higglns of the
Ked hox, saw action and Leo ben!
out a bunt.
In another exhibition on a major
league off day, the White Sox
gained a 7-7 tie with the Braves
in Milwaukee when pitcher Mike
rornieles hit a . three run triple
in the eighth. The game was called
after 10 innings to permit Chicago
to go to Cleveland for tonight's
game with the Indians.
Piktuzis gave up only six hits
but took the loss.
The Angels were playing under
the direction of CoacCi Jack War
ner while awaiting the arrival of
their new manager, Bob Scheffing
from Chicago, Bill Sweeney re
signed just before the game be
cause of a kidney ailment.
Howie Judson hurled the win for
Seattle in his first start of the
year. He allowed only six hits.
Seattle Scores
Bob Garbcr pitched perfectly
'xcept for the third inning for the
'itars. But in the big third he
miked two and a single by Harv
.ernla was followed by doubles
y Carmen Mauro, Bill Glynn
ind Joe Ginsberg.
Bob Greenwood of San Francis
co and Bob Alexander of Portland
'iad a fine duel until the sixth. The
Seals then scored their only run
ind Portland drove Greenwood to
the showers with three in the bot
torn of the same frame.
The Portland crew added two
'n the seventh to ice it as Alex
ander limited San Francisco to
lix safeties.
Bob DiPietro of San Francisco
"lit safely in his 14th contest and
Dick Whitman of Portland, the
loop's leading batsman, did just

Probe Continues
In Ring Doping
By Kl SS GRKEN
, United Press Sports Writer
PHILADELPHIA (UP) The4
Pennsylvania State Athletic Com
mission, which believes a handler
if Julio Mederos knows who
Irugged Harold Johnson before his
xut with the Cuban, looked for
limmy White, one of Mederos'
nanagers, to appear at its hearing
iday as it continued investigating
he strange finish of the bout.
White was identified by earlier
witnesses in the investigation of
he nationally-televised fiasco on
fay 6 as one of the persons in
'ohnson's dressing room before
he bout. Johnson's fantastic col
ipse between the second and third
'ounds brought on a 90 day sus
pension of boxing in Pennsylvania
'nd the commission inquiry.
White also was identified as a
nanager of the Cuban heavyweight
"ho, the commission was told, is
o-managed by ex-convict Louis
lacearome of Miami, Fla., and
"ormer middleweight champion
lake I.a Motta.
Baron Cohen of Springfield,
lass., a boxing oromoter, match
maker and handler for '35 years,
vho drew the ire of deputy state
tty. Gen. Herbert Levin Monday
"or what the counsel called "well
-cheiirscd testimony," told the in-
'estigators White hired him to
vork in Mederos' corner for the
Tohnson fight. ;
Cohen was the "cut man" in
Vi.xing jargon the man hired to
:)ose cuts and lacerations' sus
'ained by the boxer. '
l.cvin asked Cohen polntblank
during the questioning "W h o
ave the drug to Johnson?" Be
fore the witness left the chair
Levin said, "I think you know and
ton't care to tell us."
Cohen, who appeared as a volun
tary witness at the telegraphed
request of "John J.' Kelly" said
he believed a terrific left hook
to the body in the first - round
paved tiie way to Johnson's ultim
ate collapse and defeat.
It was pointed out that com
mission doctors testified barbitur
ates had been given Johnson, and
that the drug was making itself
felt before he entered the ring.

Sluggers Suffer
Batting Slumps
NEW YORK (UP) Early-season
slumps are harrassing many of the
major leagues' most celebrated
hitters, with Al Rosen of the In
dians, Jackie Robinson of the
Dodgers, Frank Thomas of the
Pirates and Ray Jablonski of the
Redlegs among the leading suffer
ers. More than 20 players are bat
ting 50 points or more below their
1954 averages and the long-ball
sluggers on the slump-ridden sit
outnumber the "singles hitters."
Just look at the names of some
of the other big-name batters who
have been having a rough time
of it in the first six weeks of the
1955 season:
Willie Mays of the Giants, last
year's major league batting lead
er; Billy Goodman of the Red Sox,
Ralph Kiner of the Indians, Ray
loone of the Tigers, Hank Sauer
f the Cubs, Joe Adcock and Bobby
Thomson of the Braves, Jim Pier
sail of the Red Sox, Eddie Yost
if the Senators, Jim Finigan of
t 'lo'ics. Junior Gilliam of the
"Dodgers and Iry Noren of the Yan
kees.
In some cases, illness and in-
iury have been largely responsible
tor the poor 1955 start. Rosen,
3oone, Sauer, Thomas' and Tbon
i are, among those who hava
leen set back by physical ua-
.nents. But for the others these
slumps are of mysterious origin
and an agonizing experience while
they last.
For sheer deficiency in batting
points, there's no one in the majors
as bad off as Thomas, who at i
sorry .165 clip is 133 points off
his final 1954 average. The Pirates'
25-year-old outfielder, rated one of
the majors' top prospects last year
when he batted .298 and hit 23
homers, was stricken by a virus
early this season, missed eight
games, and has had trouble re
gaining his batting form.
Piersall is another whose batting
mark is off njore than 100 points
from '54. A respectable .285 hitter
last year, the speedy Red Sox out
fielder currently is bogged down
at .180.'
