Browns Eye Record in Double Plays St. Louis (U.PJ The St. Louis Browns' eight-man Infield may never achieve the poetic fame of Tinker, Evers and Chance but It stands an excellent chance to set a new major league double- play record. Cast-off Marty Marlon, mana ger of the St. Louis Cardinals last year, heads a group that may make the record book In stead of the poets corner. Still bothered by an aching back, Marion has missed five of the team's 33 games entirely and has left others early. But his coaching of the Browns' youngsters as well as his own spectacular play has kept the team near first division despite anemic hitting. Lead Both Loops Through Wednesday night's game, the team made 52 double plays to lead both leagues. If the infield can continue at that pace, the Browns will wind up with 243 twin killings. The record is now held by the Philadelphia Athletics with 217 In 1949. The A's infield of that year was "set" with Hank Majes- ki at third base, Eddie Joost at short, Pete Suder at second and Ferris Fain on first. Unlike the Athletics' day-in day-out infield personnel, the Browns have operated with only the second baseman, Bobby Young, a fixture. Leo Thomas and Cass Michaels have both played third base, Marion has been relieved by Joe Demaestri and three men, Gordon Golds- berry, Dick Kryhoski and Hank Arft, have played first. Bratton Favored Oyer Flanagan New York U.R) Johnny Bratton. stylish former welter weight champion from Chicago, was favored at 2 to 1 to beat Del Flanagan of St. Paul, Minn., in their 10-round televised bout at Madison Square Garden Friday night. The bout will be In the nature of a "last chance" for the 24' year-old Bratton, as far as New York is concerned. Although he gained recognition as the NBA's world welterweight champion less than two years ago, Bratton never has been Impressive in New York. Injury Delays Pep's Comeback New Britain, Conn. (U.R) 'Willie Pep's comeback attempt went on the shelf for three or our months Friday because of a reopening of an old cut over his right eye. The former featherweight champion from Hartford had the scar tissue over the eye rein- Jured Wednesday night in Miami Beach when he bumped heads with Claude Hammond of North Bergen, N.J., in their 10-round bout. Pep went on to win the decision.

Drlve-ln Owners' Association sponsored contest. (International) Salem U.R) Like a prophet without honor in his own coun try, so the Oregon linen industry seems to be without honor in its own state. Oregon designed and woven linen is being sold in New York, elsewhere in the United States, including Seattle, San Francisco and Los Angeles but not in Portland. Display Viewed And in the hopes of remedy ing this situation, a carload of Portland merchants from the Portland Chamber of Commerce went to Salem to view a display of Oregon designed and woven linen goods in the lobby of the state capitol. The designs are striking. They were created by J. E. Hammond, Corvallis. They are woven at mills in Salem and Portland. But Hammond had to go to New York to get merchants in terested enough to invest in putting the goods on the market. He said that at the time, Port land merchants simply weren't interested. Interest Now Shown But now that the goods have caught on and are selling brisk ly elsewhere in the country, in terest has been shown in bring- As We Live LOVE SHOULD NOT DIE WITH MARRIAGE Love should grow stronger, not weaker, with marriage. When a man marries, he expects the affection from his wife that she has given him before mar riage and he is entitled to it. This poor chap feels that marriage has robbed him of love and he asks what to do about it. (Q) "I have been married for five years and I've tried to make my wife and my daugh ter of four years very happy. Before our marriage, my wife was warm towards me. But. after our marriage, she changed and also changed aft er the baby was born. I have to make all the movements of love and affection first. I don't say a guy isn't supposed to make the first move but does he all the time? I love her very much but my heart breaks when she makss me ask her for affection." (A) No husband should have to ask his wife for affection. The very fact that his wife became his wile ana is Dr. Hurlock willing to re- main such should mean that she loves him enough to live with him and share his life. There are some women, and some men too, w h o a r e cold. They may feel deep emo tions but they keep them hid den. They give the impression that they are selfish, self-centered, and lacking in emotional warmth. Your wife does not belong to that type as she was "warm toward you before your mar riage. Naturally you notice the change and it is bound to be a heartbreaking realization on your part. By ELIZABETH HURLOCK, PH.D. Perhaps your wife has become so preoccupied with her home and the child that she has taken you for granted. Consult Councelor Your talking to her about the matter is likely to make her self- conscious or even resentful. It might put her on the defensive and make her even colder than she now is-. It would be far better if you had an outsider discuss this mat ter with your wife, preferably a trained counselor. Or perhaps your doctor or minister could point out to her where she Is falling down on her job as a wife. Get professional help be cause, as time goes on, her cold ness toward you will kill your love for her. Elizabeth Hurlock Is a consult lng psychologist.

He hadn't made a movie since "He Ran All The Way," nearly two years ago. His only other work was summer stock and a shortlived play, "Golden Boy." Two days before he died, his agent said, he learned that a house un-American activities subcommittee had cleared him. once and for all, of a Red taint. Offers for major studio pic tures and plays began to roll in. But the curly-haired star's heart, strained from worry over his temporary downfall, gave up ty ALINE MOSBY United Press Correspondent before he could return to star dom. Role Being Arranged His agent, George Chasen, said Friday: "John called me Monday and said, now it's official. Tell the studios to check with whomever they want. They'll find out I'm cleared. Within the next hvo or three days the subcommittee will issue a statement exonerating me." "I was lining him up to do 'Taxi' at 20th Century-Fox. One of those tough guy roles that made him famous," the agent said. "He was set to appear In 'The Postman Always Rings Twice' on the stage, too. But it came too late. He'd suffered a heart at tack while playing tennis three years ago. This latest worry was too much," Never Joined Party Garfield had insisted to the subcommittee he'd never been a Communist. And friends of the star, who died Wednesday at the age of 39, say he often told them he was a loyal American and had never joined the party. But after his appearance as a witness, a congressman declared his testimony would be inspected for possible perjury. Investiga tion showed he spoke the truth. But by then he wasn't getting any movie offers. ' In recent months, his agent frankly says, Garfield was seek ing employment." "This worry could very well have contributed to his death," Chasen said. "He'd been emo tionally under a cloud ... all those rumors and innuendos. "When he called Monday he was so happy about getting back to work. He had been at the peak of his career before this hap pened." The day before Garfield died, playwright Clifford Odets clear ed him in testimony before the subcommittee. A director who worked with Garfield summed it up: "He was a mixed up guy, caught in confusion. He had worked for his day in the sun and then had it knocked away from him, "I had a funny premonition about his death. I saw him two months ago and he had a feeling of tragedy flying over his head.
