MUSIAL, ROBINSON GIVE
SENIOR LOOP PRESTIGE
New York (U.R) Stan (The
Man) Musial and Jackie Robin
son, who rose to full eminence
as super-stars when Joe Di
maggio and Ted Williams faded
from the picture, gave the Na
tional league new prestige
Thursday and new hope for
another victory in the annual
All-Star classic.
They are the new magic
names in the game and stand
out among all active players as
best bets to land eventually in
the Hall of Fame.
One game doesn't make a sea
son, nor does it make or break
a player, but the deeds of both
Musial and Robinson were
brought strongly into focus
Wednesday as they led their
clubs to standout victories.
Greatest Ail-Around
Musial, now established as the
game's greatest all - around hit
ter, passed another milestone
when he attained his 1,900th
hit as the Cards drubbed the

SAVINGS!
We put the price of this Buick in big type
because we're proud of it,
It's the price of the six-passenger, two-door
Special ready to roll.
When you put this price against the local deliv
ered prices of other cars that folks usually
associate with Buick-you'U have a hard time
finding a single one as low.
When you put this price against what you'll
pay for cars with the reputation of being
"lower priced" you'll find why this Buick
gives them such keen competition.
And if you want to go in for extras you can
still add up what goes on the bill of sale of other
cars and a Buick-you'U find out that Buick's
an even greater buy.
We know that price is important to a lot of
folks, especially with the price of groceries
and even baby shoes where they are today.
But you also want some fun for your money
and that's where a Buick really shines.
Just wait till you give a gentle nudge to the
power that's under that big, broad hood and

Phillies, 7 to 1. Befpre the sea
son ends, he is likely to top the
2,000 figure. And, as he made
it 1,900 with a resounding two
run homer, he surpassed all but
three fading stars Phil Cav
aretta, Bob Elliott, and Johnny
Mize at that level.
Musial, who should catch
them all before the year ends,
also added a single later to
make it 1,901. He paced the
lS-hit Cardinal attack as little
Joe Presko pitched a five-hitter,
three of the blows being
tapped by catcher Smokey Bur
gess. Robinson, not so devastating
a hitter, but perhaps a greater
all . around performer with his
brilliance afield and on the bas
es, "stole" a 8 to 5 decision for
Brooklyn in 10 innings. He pil
fered three bases, the last in
the 10th.
Robinson Eyes
Long Range Kayo
Pompton Lakes, N. J. (U.R)
Sugar Ray Robinson plans a
long-range . knockout Monday
night for Joey Maxim, the big'
gest man he ever faced.
That's the vivid impression
one receives here at Sugar Ray's
camp while watching him spar
and while talking with him
about the Yankee stadium fight
How Is Question
The middleweight champion
admitted Thursday, "I'll try to
knock Maxim out." But he ad
ded, "just how I'll do it I don't
know. I haven't made any plans.
I never make plans before a
fight. You never know what the
other fellow will do."
Nevertheless, the slender Ne
gro's maneuvers in the ring in
dicate he is committed defin
itely to a hit-and-run, long-range
fight in which be will try to
stun Maxim from a distance and
then mow him down.
Butter taken from the refrig
erator can be softened quickly
without waste by placing a heat
ed bowl over it for a few
minutes.

Ball Games
San Francisco (U.R) Know
the tale about the one pitch that
meant two ball games? It was
thrown by Hollywood's knuckle
ball perfectionist, Johnny Lin-
dell. .
A few of the 7,749 fans at
Lane field Wednesday night
didn't see San Diego defeat
Hollywood, 3-1, because they
were reaching for hot dogs when
Lindell unloosed his costly of
fering.
Home runs told the story of
the Portland-Los Angeles game,
won by the Angels, 4-3, on four-
masters by Leon Brinkopf and
Bob Usher.
Clever Elmer Singleton work
ed a five-hitter to post his third
shutout victory of the year as
San Francisco downed Sacra
mento, 5-0; and short Steve
Nagy pitched a two-hitter to get
Seattle by Oakland, 2-1.
Homer Hit
LindeH's pitch met the fat
part of catcher Lonnie Summers'
bat and found itself rapidly pro
pelled out of the park. Two men
were on base at the time and
when their spikes dented home
plate, first-place San Diego had
a victory.
Because of that one fourth
inning pitch, Hollywood lost a
chance to move into a virtual tie
for the Pacific Coast league
lead. Instead, the Stars find
themselves two games behind
Lefty O'Doul's Padres.
Lindell toiled a four-hitter
and slapped a home run off Wil
lie Luna, the slim southpaw who
pitched the victory. Luna al
lowed five hits and worked him
self out of several uncomfort
able spots.
But it was his burly battery
mate Summers, and Lindell who
turned one pitch into two ball
games.
