General Admission Students Children Under 60c 30c 12 FREE ASHLAND RODEO GROUNDS VALLEY VIEW By UNITED PRESS It was ladies' day in Brooklyn Thursday, but Ebbcts Field is no place now for women or chil dren. The Dodgers are likely to frighten away all but the brave hearted if they come even close to repeating Wednesday night's record-breaking, 19 to 1, massa cre of Cincinnati. Brooklyn scored 15 runs In the first inning, setting five new major league records in the pro cess. The IS runs were an all time modern high, as were the 21 men to come to bat in a single inning. Fiv Marks Fall The 15 runs-batted-in also was tops. The 19 men who got on base safely put another entry into the books, and the fact that 12 men scored after two were out provided the fifth newmark. Moving into first place undis putedly ahead of the Giants as they broke out of a prolonged hitting slump against four shell shocked Cincy pitchers, the Dod gers made 10 hits in the inning, drew seven walks, and two bat ters were hit by pitches. Duke Snider touched it all off with a two-run homer and catch er Rube Walker drove in three runs with two hits. Pcewee Reese, Andy Pafko, and Pitcher Chris Van Cuyk drove in two runs apiece in the amazing ral ly. Pitcher Mighty Hitter Van Cuyk, whose five-hit pit ching was completely overshad owed by the other events, was also the mightiest Dodger at bat, collecting four straight singles. He got two in the first ining and in the third and fifth he singled, Bobby Morgan fol lowed each time with a homer Homer Howell spoiled Van Cuyk's shutout with a home run his first hit of the year. The Giants fell half a game off the pace by dividing their day-night double header with the Cardinals. They won the night game B to 1. But Cliff Chambers held them to four hits to win the afternoon contest, Z to 0. In the other National league game, Robin Roberts of the Phillies won his seventh in a row, 7 to 3, against the Pirates. Chicago at Boston was rained out. In the American lcooue, Clove land went tl'iree full games in front of Washington by defeat lng the Red Sox 5 to 1, while the Browns topped the Senators, 2 to 1 in 10 innings.

Pitchers Nab Limelight From Oaks San Francisco (U.R) Oak land's covetous Acorns, only half-a-game from first place and bursting to replace San Diego, had to tip-toe off the Pacific Coast league stage Thursday to make room for two unpredict able lefthanders. Following a tradition of un orthodoxy, the southpaw fling ers demanded notice for their achievements, to the exclusion of the rampaging Oaks. Four -Hitter Tossed Chesty Chet Johnson, late of San Francisco and Oakland, and currently on the working list of Sacramento's lowly Solons, was one of the southpaws. Seattle's Jim Davis, who had a plane ticket for Memphis at this time last week, was the other. Each tossed four-hit baseball Wednesday night, recording vic tories for their win-hungry team mates. Johnson, who has good and bad seasons- in alternate years, worked the Solons to a 6-1 win over Los Angeles. And Davis pitched Seattle to a 3-0 triumph over Hollywood. Meanwhile, Mel Ott's Oaks bumped San Diego, 8-2, to edge closer to the Pads' lead. In an other game, surprising San Fran cisco won its fourth in a row, defeating Portlnnd, 5-3.
