lightning Kills
Two Players on
Florida field
Baker, Fla., Aug. 1 U.R
Two baseball players were
killed and 50 or more players
and spectators shocked or
burned when lightning lash
ed the ballfield here just as
a game was starting yester
day. . The Baker team of the
county semi-pro league was
just taking the field against
Munson when "there was a
, loud crack like a big whip"
and players and spectators
were stunned. The infielders
were knocked flat two of
them dead as the bolt plowed
a 20-foot furrow down the
third base line.
The audience broke from
L behind the baselines and fled
over the field after a moment's
shocked surprise. Many of
them were burned or felt the
shock.
Tarn Golfing to
Open This Week
On Chicago Links
Chicago, Aug. 1 W) Golf
reaches the realm of the fan
tastic this week with presenta
tion of the Tarn O-Shanter $66.
200 variety show.
The gold rush starts Friday
and continues merrily for 10
days.
In addition to being the
world's richest golf outing, it is
the longest, has the biggest
field (about 500), and, without a
doubt, is the screwiest.
Any golfer who can hear
the tingle of a dime during a
stampede of longhorns will be
there.
The Tarn, which has been a
confusion of golfing traffic in
the past, will be more so this
time. Promoter George S. May
club president and former Bible
salesman, has a new package for
his estimated average of 15,000
daily customers. :
He offers seven tournaments
in one. Running the first five
days are the all-American men's
pro tourney, - the all-American
men's amateur and the all
American women's open.
When all this is over, it's
only the beginning.
Then starts the world cham
pionships, of golf (Promoter
May's world).
On a 72-hole medal basis,
these tournaments fall into four
classifications men pros, men
amateurs, women pros and wo
men amateurs.

Rivals Oust Locke for Booty
New York, July SO U.R The
Professional Golfers association,
torn by an internal battle for
control and individual gain, was
involved in another disgraceful
case today which illustrated ful
ly to what a low level the dollar
hungry divot diggers have sunk.
This time it is the barring
from U.S.P.G.A.-sponsored tour
naments of Bobby Locke, the
sharpshooter from South Africa.
The reason given was that
Locke, after winning the British
open, failed to return to play in
the Inverness invitational. The
technical wording was that he
failed to honor his commit
ments." No matter what the P.G.A.
brass-hats charge in rebuttal,
the truth is that Locke was
cutting up too much of the
booty and this, stiffened by
animosity and jealousy, was
an easy way out
For if failing to live up to
commitments was a valid rea

San Francisco, Aug. 1 (U.R)
Top notch pitching moved the
Hollywood Stars a couple of
notches further ahead of the
pack in the Pacific coast league
race yesterday, but it was Los
Angeles pitching that did It.
Los Angeles pitchers turned
the fire hose on the flaming
Sacramento Solons and gave
them a lone run to remember
the day's doubleheader by. The
Angels shook Sacramento's first
place aspirations by winning two.

ond 3-0.
Meanwhile Hollywood got
good enough pitching and
timely hitting to beat Fort
land 12-3 and 5-2 to move six
and a half games out in front
of the Sacs. ,
None of the other teams chal
lenged Hollywood as ; they all
split their twin features. San
Francisco murdered San Diego
13-0 in the first one and then
bowed 4-1 in the nightcap. Oak
land racked up a 13-7 win and
then was wrecked 6-4.
Don Watkins held the Solons
to five hitsin the opener and
was helped along by Clarence
Maddern and Johnny Ostrowski
who hit .home runs for the An
gels. It was Ostrowski's 32nd
roundtripper.
Sacramento got even less in
wasn't barred although he
didn't show up at St. Petersburg
when he was the highly-adver
tised defending champion.
Similarly, the Canadian
P.G.A. should immediately
put the boot to Sam Snead,
Cary Middlecoff and Lloyd
Mangrum. They were billed to
play in the Canadian open
but didn't show. All the Cana
dians did was hold up the pay
off to our P.G.A.
This is particularly humorous
reason given by our P.G.A. in
barring Locke and another blot
on our sportsmanship when
you consider that just two
months ago the P.G.A. didn t
want anything to do with him.
That was when they held
the P.G.A. championship at
Richmond. Locke was barred
as "no longer being a visitor."
And, coincidentally, as for
barring those who don't keep
commitments, Dutch Harrison
was the bost club's "travel
ing pro," and he didn't show
up for their own tournament.
Yes, he was billed to play.
Now, if it was a case of Dutch
being an expendable, why kick
about Locke at Inverness? He
was replaced by Sam Snead, the

got the best of the deal in the
long run..
But for some strange reason
our P.G.A. decided all of a
sudden that we couldn't do
without Locke.
Maybe it was because he just
won the British open.
But Bobby, advising Inver
ness that he couldn't skip
right back across the ocean
and being well-substituted,
preferred to do the gentleman
ly thing and stay in Britain
to give them a drawing card
at their own tournaments. It
was payment for their hos
pitality and the only right
thing to do in a country where
the game is finding It a strug
gle to make a comeback.
Our pros are slated to go to
England in September for the
Ryder cup matches and four
other tourneys. They won't stay
out because Locke is in.
Meanwhile, the British
P.G.A. is investigating. What
they should do is call off the

Snead Collects Western Open
Cash to Relieve Tired feeling
St. Paul, Minn., Aug. 1 m
Sam Snead, the White Sul
phur Springs, W. Va., profes
sional who says he's "tired of
golf" had something today to
relieve that tired feeling.
It was the $2,600 he won
yesterday by taking first place
in the 48th annual western
open with a 72-hole total of
268. That score bettered the
western open record of 270,
set in 1947 by Johnny Palmer,
Badin, N. C, and equalled the
record for the 6,557-yard Kel
ler course, set in 1946 by
Henry Ransom.
Cary Middlecoff of Mem
phis shot a 65 yesterday to
boost himself to a four-round
total of 272 and take down

Monrte Trials with As
Twin Bills Set for Monday,
Tuesday Nights at Waters
Salem and Victoria, two of the three teams in the midst
of a battle for fifth place in the Western International league
race, open a five-game series with a doubleheader at Waters
park, Monday night, at 7 o'clock.
Since this is the final local appearance of the year for the
uanaaian cud, previously
scheduled Senator-A t h 1 e t i c
games which were rained out
will all have to be made up dur
ing Victoria's brief stay here.
That forces the two clubs to
engage in doubleheaders both
Monday and Tuesday night.
They'll taper off with a single
game Wednesday, following a
performance by Al Schacht,
"the clown prince of baseball,"
starts at 8 p. m.
The Solons were idle Sun
day, due to the no-baseball
Sabbath law in Canada. They
wound up a four-game series
with Vancouver by dropping
both ends of a Saturday
doubleheader, 12 to 4 and 8
to 7. The twin setback gave
Salem a split in a four-game
stand at Vancouver.
Gene Peterson and Stu Fred
ericks were charged with losses
in their mound efforts Saturday.
Neither finished his outing.
Jimmy Foster and Bill Osborn
were called in by Manager Bill
Beard to finish out the first
game, and Stu Fredericks toil
ed in the late stages of the
nightcap.
Four Senators
bajshed out
' home runs in the double-
header. Wayne and Bud Pet-.
erson each smashed one in the
first game, and Bob Hcding
ton and Bob Cherry did the
honors in the second contest.
Vancouver now moves over to
Yakima for a crucial four-game
slate with the league-leading
Yakima Bears. The Caps, in
second place, are just four
games arear Yakima as they
move in the final series of the
year against each other.
A sweep for Vancouver would
send the two clubs down the fin
al stretch neck and neck. A split
would still leave the four-game
cleavage, but the Canadians
wouldn't be so far behind as to
elminate a possible spurt in the
waning days of the season.
Should Yakima come out of
this meeting with anything
better than an even split, Van
couver would find that much
more difficult if not imposs
ible. No other club has a chance of
overtaking the Bears.
'-Yakima's lead was pared to
four games Saturday as Vic
toria blanked them 5 to 0 be
fore the league-leaders snatch
ed a 2 to 1 second game de
cision. The Bremerton Tars, who
were riding a six-game win
streaK until it bumped up
against Wenatchee, has now lost
five straight. The latest losses
came Sunday by scores of 2 to 1
and 9 to 1. Saturday it was 4 to
1.

Legion Rubber Game is
Set for Forest Grove
Diamond on Monday Nite
Salem and Hillsboro American Legion junior baseball
teams will meet at Forest Grove at 8:30 Monday night to
determine which of the two teams will enter the state
Legion tournament at Albany beginning Saturday night.
The playoff for the coveted tourney berth was thrown
into a deadlock Sunday aftemon when Hillsboro took a
3 to 0 victory over the Capital Post No. 9 club at Hills
boro. Salem had captured a 5 to 3 win at Waters park
last week in the playoff series opener.
Jim Nierman set the Capitals down with five hits Sun
day and was never in serious trouble. Sonny Walker
was nicked for the loss as the Hillsboro crew pounded out
eight hits.
Hillsboro scored twice in the second inning on a walk,
a double by Bob Frantz and a single by Hooker. They
added their final run in the sixth as LeBlanc singled to
score Frantz from second. Frantz had got on base with
a single and stole second.
Jim Rock, who hurled the 5 to 3 win over Hillsboro last
week, will be Coach Bill Hanauska's mound choice for the
game to be played Monday or Tuesday.

Eugene, Ore., Aug. 1 W)
Foundations are being laid
to
ing his rookies trained for him.
Should Big Spring get a
chance to sell a player, it may
do so. Stasey always consults
with Cambria and it always has
been all right with him. If Cam
bria needs a pitcher or a third
baseman at Havana, Stasey ships
him one right away.
Fans of other Longhorn
League clubs are certain that the
supply of Cuban baseballers is
inexhaustible. When one Big
Spring star leaves another Cuban
takes his place and the team
rarely slows up.
Stasey has no language prob
lem. Most of the rookies speak
a little English and they catch
on to it quickly under the tutel
age of the older players.
One of the latest newcomers
to the club is Ernesto Mayor
quinn, a righthanded pitcher
about the size of a watch charm.
He arrived in town without a
cent. He didn't even own a pair
of baseball shoes or a glove.
"You're too little to pitch,"
Stasey said. But Mayorquian's
papers said he was a pitcher and

Antelope Tags
To Be Donated
After Scramble
Portland, Aug. 1 (P) Some
5000 hunters' names will be
mixed in a bowl today to
determine who will get the
1000 antelope hunting tags,
the state game commission re
ported today.
The antelope season will be
from Aug. 20 to 25 in parts
of Lake, Harney and Malheur
counties, and some of the suc
cessful applicants for licenses
may not know of their luck
until shortly before the sea
son opens.
A commission spokesman
said 2000 names will be drawn
and the first 1000 notified.
Past experience has shown
that of the 1000, some 400 will
not send the money for their
tags within the time limit
about six days so the next
400 on the list drawn will be
notified. Some of these, too,
will fail to respond, and their
places will be filled by others
father down on the list. That
procedure will continue until
the last of the 1000 allowed
tags has been issued.
Longest extra-hole match in
national amateur history went
10 extra greens before Maurice
J McCarthy, Jr., defeated George
Von Elm in 1930.

that turned out to be quite right.
After feeding him for five
days, Stasey sent Mayorquian to
the hill in a tight relief role
against San Angelo. The young
ster did an amazing job, pitch
ing 10 scoreless innings in a duel
Big Spring won 8-7 in the 13th.
He declares the average Cuban
rookie is fast, has a good arm
and lots of hustle. They are
easy to manage and are popular
both with fans at home and on
the road.
