SKtlfS Rookies Charge Up Red Sox For 3-2 Edge Over Browns For later summer driving, the American Automobile As sociation advises draining the car radiator of spent anti-freeze and flushing the cooling system, New York (U.R) Sammy White, Jimmy Plersall and Ted Lepcio, whose rah-rah spirit more than makes up for their raw-raw misadventures as rook ics, have the Red Sox all charged up again and ready to make a new hot bid as flag contenders. Lou Boudreau's boy wonders. an the more formidable now that they have been fortified with standout veterans George Kell, Dizzy Trout, and Hoot Evers from the big trade with Detroit, were in a virtual first place tie with the Yankees. Even on a won and lost basis, but 12 percentage points behind because they had played six more games, the Red Sox came through Wednesday night with an 11 to 9 ninth inning victory over the Browns when White's, grand slam homer broke it up. Key Parts The three rookies and three ex-Tigers all had key parts in the victory. The Browns, leading 9 to 5, were ready to wrap up a second straight for new boss Marty Marion. He wasn't even around, having been dismissed in the eighth for a row with urn plre Bill McGowan, But Plersall started It out by bunting safely against old Satch Paige, then needled him unmer cifully as he took daring leads off first. Evers followed with a single. A walk to Kell loaded the bases. Billy Goodman also walked, forcing home Plersall with the first run off Paige after 26 23 scoreless innings of re lief ball in 11 games. Lepcio also beat out a hit to bring In the second run. Third el Year That left It up to rookie catch er White, who blasted the homer on a 3-2 pitch, his third of the year. Trout, gaining his third straight victory since coming from Detroit, hnd pitched score less ball in the top of the ninth to gain the decision. Homers by Cass Michaels and Dick Kryho skl and four hits, one a triple by Joe Demaestrl, had kept St. Louis comfortably ahead until the ninth. The Yankees topped Detroit, 7 to 2, as Joe Collins drove In ATTENTION!

The Ath letics came from behind to top Chicago, S to 3, and end a four game White Sox winning streak. HitsThroe Homers i In the National League, the Giants moved to within four games of top-dog Brooklyn with a 3 to Z victory at Cincinnati while the Cardinals were beat ing the Dodgers 3 to 2 in 10 innings at St. Louis. Hank Sauer's three homeers gave the Cubs a 3-2 decision over the Phils and the Pirates blanked the Braves, 5 to 0, on Murry Dick son's five-hitter. Pitcher Johnny Sain was touched for 10 hits, but was scored on in only one inning as he recorded his sixth victory against two defeats for the Yankees. Exports of U. S. coal over seas in 1951 were the second highest on record, exceeded only by the 1947 level. Hogan Eyes 4th Straight Open Title Dallas, Tex. 4U.R) It was Ben Hogan against the field and the weather Thursday as the little Texan with the precision swing went after his fourth straight U.S. Open golf cham pionship. No man has ever won four straight. The 162-player field was full of stars who conceivably could dethrone the little comeback king but the strongest challeng ers looked like former champion Lloyd Mangrum, perfectionist Bobby Locke, and Sam Snead, who's been so near, yet so far from other Open crowns. , Hot and Sultry But, it may be the weather hot and sultry, the kind which suck's a man's strength out through the pores which may prove more of a stumbling block to Hogan than his competitors. However, the game blacksmith's son, who is rapidly approaching his 40th birthday, gets a break in that he drew an early tee time and will finish before the 90-degree heat can take its toll. But - Friday Hogan -t doesn't start until more than an hour after mid-day, and the USGA schedule calls for a gruelling all-day 36-hole grind on Satur day for the 80 survivors of the opening two rounds, Triple Winners Only two other men have ever won this most prized honor of the golfing world three times, but neither of them Bobby Jones or Willie Anderson made it four straight as Bantam Ben could do. Whether the weather was re sposible or not, the little champ has done no better than a one-over-par 71 in two weeks of prac tice, while Snead has posted a bristling 64 and. Mangrum a 68.

Hollywood picked up the check, 3-1. May Surpass Mark ' Under the Fagan-O'Doul re gime in 1931, the Seals opened their season ignominously. by dropping 13 in a row, Heath's crew, which Fagan blue-printed as the foundation of a third ma jor league team, may ' surpass that mark this week. League-leading San Diego stayed two games ahead of Hoi lywood, nipping Sacraments, 1-0 in an interesting pitching con test. Winner Ben Flowers--al lowed six hits; loser Jess Flores gave up three. Shortstop Johnny Bero doubl ed home Sam Chapman . with the deciding run in Oakland's 3-1, 12th-inning victory over Los Angeles. ' The contest between Seattle and Portland was post poned by wet grounds. Seven-Hitter ' Pinky Woods pitched a sev en-hitter to nail the Seals. He gave up the run in the second inning and didn't get control until the fifth, when Ted Beard doubled home two runs and Jack Phillips singled in another pair. The San Francisco kids have scored 10 runs in their last nine losing games. Flores, who has pitched some excellent baseball this season, lost to San Diego because he surrendered two doubles in , the third inning. Lon Summers and Jackie Tobin nicked him for the two-baggers. Tobin also collected a single in the ninth. ' Each pitcher fanned four. The Oaks ' win was their ' second straight in overtime for the An gels. Allen Gettel, a handsome righthander whom manager Mel Ott calls his best pitcher, gave up seven safeties and singled home one of the two tallies Oak land picked up in the 12th.'

The underdog and a losing fighter after eight rounds, La Motta piled up just the points to win in his finishing flurry as he decisioned Irish Bob Murphy in a 10-round televised bout here Wednesday night. That meant that LaMotta can fight as a light heavyweight, and so he has a new championship to chase. Officials Unanimous All three ring officials gave LaMotta an edge in the ninth and tenth rounds, which were decisive because judge ' Andy Brown and referee Lou Handler both scored the fight 5149 in LaMotta's favor. Judge Johnny Weber gave -the winner a much wider edge 55-45. Murphy blamed his 10-round loss on a long layoff and asked for a re-match within 30 days. 1 Murphy, 175VS, said he had pared his weight down from 214 pounds since February and he didn't have anything left in the closing rounds. LaMotta scaled 1694. National College Cinder Scuffle Starts on Friday Berkeley, Calif. -U.R The all-important 'National Collegi ate Track and Field meet gets under way here Friday with 11 men back to defend their crowns and at the same time hoping to qualify for the Olympic trials in Los Angeles June 27-28. , The forecast is for a bright sun and a fast track as the na tion's outstanding college ath letes gun for new records. The entry list reached 367 and . a few more are expected before the preliminaries get under way. The finals will be held Satur day. One final, the 10,000-meter run, will be staged as the final event on Friday's card. Fifteen men have been- entered with Walter Dcike of Wisconsin in the favorite's role. " Due to the fact that all of the races are being run on the met ric measurement this year to get a line on Olympic chances, it is probable that as many as 10 records may be smashed. Very few, if any, national or world marks are expected to be threat ened.
