Jr. (Associated Press Sports Writer) You would think, offhand, that such a seasoned campaigner as tho 38-year-old Walter "Babbit" Maranvllle of the Boston Bruves had long since learned not to fall for anything as venerable as tho hidden ball trick. But It was none other than tho sprightly Rabbit who was trapped by this oldest of baseball legerde main yesterday as the Cincinnati Reds won a brilliant 1 to 0 pitch ing duol from the Braves. But for Maranvllle's lapso, there might have been a dlfforent result. Coming up in the ninth after John Ogdon had held the Braves to four hits and no runs for eight innings, the Rabbit singled, wont to second on a wild pitch and was In Dositlon to score the tying run Then he forgot himself, wandered off tho bag and was tagged out with cose and dispatch by Joe Stripp, Cincinnati third basoman Itohins Ilovenged. Tho Brooklyn Hobins came back to square accounts with tho St. Louis Cardinals, 10 to 3, whon Wntson Clark chalked up . seventh straight victory.
