Browns Hand Indians
First League Setback
New York U.R) Hey, where
did they fire that atom bomb
in Nevada or in Sportsman's
Park, St. Louis, where the
Browns are blowing up the
whole American league?
The latest team to get caught
in an explosion there was pace
setting Cleveland, which suf
fered a sound, 8 to 3, 13-hit
thrashing Tuesday night, mak
ing it possible for the Browns
to take over first place Wednes
day if they can beat the Indians
again.
It was the first time Cleve
land had lost a game this season,
but the Browns did it easily, not
minding in the least that their
atomic display was making the
whole town radio-active. They
say you can't pry the fans away
from broadcasts unless they're
at the game.
Important Point
That's a pretty Important
point. For AL teams accustomed
to going into St. Louis and not
taking away enough money for
expenses. So far for four home
games they have piled 63,806
fans into the park, or more than
three times the total for the
same period last year.
The Browns cashed in on the
steady eight-hit pitching of ex
wild man Tommy Byrne, who
truck out seven and walked

only one man. It was his second
straight complete game victory.
Only one man, Al Rosen, with a
homer, triple and double gave
him trouble.
The Browns took a 3 to 0 lead
off Mike Garcia in the first three
innings then put over five more
runs in the seventh with Byrne
himself touching off the big rally
with his second hit.
Rookie Leo Thomas made four
of the Brownie hits and Marty
Marion collected two.
Salem Loses
Loop Opener
By UNITED PRESS
The 1952 Western Interna
tional league baseball season
swings into the second round
Wednesday, and if Tuesday's
opening games rate as standard
performances, the fans will be
in for plenty of high-class dia
mond entertainment before the
pennant is decided.
There was hitting galore at
Yakima where Victoria eked out
14-13 win in a slugfest which
seven pitchers failed to stem.
Wenatchee used the big inning
technique to trip Vancouver,
I. Spokane used a combina
tion of clutch hitting and good
fielding to trim Salem, 7-1.
And Lewiston's Broncos, the
newcomers to the newly desig
nated Class A circuit, displayed
both batting and pit c h i n g
strength to whip Tri-City, 5-2.
Beavers Defeat
Idaho Nine 7-4
Corvallis (U.R) Oregon
State's Beavers took a 7-4 Nor
thern Division baseball victory
from University of Idaho here
Tuesday to split their two-game
series. 1
Chuck Flsk, freshman short
stop who started his first varsity
game, paced the Beavers at the
plate with three-for-five and bat
ted in four runs.
Bruce Mcintosh, the Vandals'
centerficlder, also hit three-for-flve.

Crater Beats
Eagle Point
Nine 6 to 0
Central Point, April 23 (Spe
cial) Playing its best game so
far this season, the Crater high
baseball nine flogged Eagle
Point 6 to 0 yesterday in a JDJ
league encounter here.
The Comets bounced back in
the loop after absorbing a 12 to
0 loss last week-end at the hands
of Illinois Valley. Eagle Point
prevlousiy had nipped Illinois
Valley 9 to 8.
Crater tallied first in the sec
ond inning. Don Collins walked
and Howard Morris doubled. Del
Tucker singled, scoring Collins
and Morris was thrown out at
the plate.
In the fourth frame Bob King
singled and Freshman Bob Hill
homered to account for two more
runs. Vern Parent walked and
stole second in the fifth inning.
Marvin Bohnert hit to drive Par
ent home and Bohnert advanced
to second base on the throw-in.
King singled Bohnert across for
a run and then stole second.
Punky Monroe hit safely to
King.
Players Out
Monroe, pitching for Crater,
fanned eight batters, walked one
and hit one. Of the four hits he
allowed, the longest was a triple
by Charles Eccleston. King and
Bohnert each got two hits in
three times at bat for Crater.
Comet Coach Clarence Mell-
bye reported that Lary Bigham,
pitcher and infielder, suffered
spike wounds, in the Hayward
relays and that Ronald Brood,
outfielder, has a foot infection.
Both are possibly out of action
for the season.
Crater defeated St. Mary's of
Medford 8 to 2 in a practice
game on Monday. Two freshmen
pitched for the Comets. Fred
Hogue gave up two hits and one
run in four Innings and Kay Kel-
ley three hits and one run in
three Innings.

' Cincinnati (U.R) Fiery Eddie
Stanky of the Cardinals and
Umpire Scotty Robb were sum
moned to appear before Nation
al League President Warren
Giles Wednesday to explain why
they pushed each other in Tues
day night's game between St.
Louis and Cincinnati.
The incident occurred in the
third inning after Solly Hemus
of the Cardinals had been called
out on strikes. He flung his bat
on foul ground toward first
base and immediately was ban
ished from the game by Robb.
Stanky, in his capacity as St.
Louis manager, leaped out of
the dugout and demanded to
know why Hemus has been
ejected. Seconds later they were
pushing each other. Then Robb
gave Stanky a vigorous push
and Just as Stanky was prepar
ing to retaliate, Stan Musinl
Jumped between him and Robb.
Upsets Pulled
In Golf Tourney
Pinehurst, N. C. (U.R) Ray
Palmer and William Hyndman,
who eliminated Walker Cup
players Dick Chapman and Jim
McHale in the opening round,
get chances to pull two more
surprises Wednesday in the sec
ond round of the North and
South amateur golf tournament.
Palmer of Wyandotte, Mich
pulled a major upset Tuesday by
defeating Chapman, the British
amateur champion from Pine
hurst, 1-up. Hyndman provided
almost as big a surprise when he
ousted McHale, a fellov Phila-
delphian, by the same margin.
Palmer's second round oppon
ent is defending champion Ho-
bart Manlcy of Savannah, Ga
Hyndman takes on Frank
Stranahan, former British ama
teur titlcholder from Toledo
Ohio. '
BOWLS TO COLF
Chicago (U.R) Buddy Bomar,
twice national doubles champion
of the American Bowling con

Roundtripper
ins Game
For Portland
San Francisco (U.R) Just like
the movies, Hollywood's Stars
are better than ever.
The men of Fred Haney ex
hibited their sixth straight ex
ample of playing by a new
script Tuesday night when they
defeated league - leading San
Diego, 9-4. The most current
hero of the victory skein, Roycc
Lint, proved to Star backers that
he'll help Hollywood during the
season.
Lint, a newcomer, pitched the
victory and had the Pads blank
ed for six frames. He weakened
slightly in the eighth and was
removed from the game. But Ha
ney figures Lint, a guy with a
movie-style name, will register
a few wins for the getting-better
Stars.
Clings To Lead
San Diego clung to its 1-2 game
lead, when second place Los
Angeles was side-tracked by
Portland's Clint Conatser. He hit
an eighth inning home run that
won for Portland, 3-2.
Oakland scurried four runs
home in the eighth inning to
measure Seattle, 6-5; and San
Francisco nipped Sacramento,
7-6, on Jim Moran's cheap pop
fly single in the 10th.
Seeded Players
Tennis Victors
Houston, Tex. (U.R) River

petition Wednesday in order of
