The 6-foot, 5-inch Indiana born pitcher, who was the win ning pitcher in the All-Star game, boasts nine won and six lost. In one torrid stretch, he won seven straight games, allowing only four earned runs in 64 in nings. Three were shutouts. His finest performance was May 30 when he came within a whisper of pitching the first per fect game since the Wh;te Sox Charley Robertson did so in 1922 No Runner On Through the seventh inning against the Reds the 225-pound Ditcher didn't allow a runner on base. The Cubs backed him with errorless ball. Then pesky Grady Hatton, Reds' third baseman, rifled a double into centerfield and the spell was broken. Rush still came out with a two-hitter and an 11-0 win. But he wanted that no-hitter badly. "It's something you always think about," he said. "I've dreamed about throwing one andl kind of hoped to get lucky one of these days." "Almost had that one till that darn Hatton busted one on me," Rush said. Grade Pitcher Rush was spotted as a gangling grade school pitcher by "Pop" Frankel, a South Bend, Ind., playground director. Frankel, a Cub fan since the days of France Chance and Joe Tinker, called the Wngley or ganization and told them of his find. The Cubs dispatched a scout to South Bend and told Frankel "not to let that kid get away." Rush didn't. He signed a Cub contract upon graduation from high school and then began a trek through the Cub farm chain. He came up to the Cubs in 1948, but took three years to make the grade. "I'm not throwing any differ ently than before," he said, "at least I don't think so. It's con trol. I'm hitting the corners this year and I'm putting the ballj where I want to now." 1 Rookie Leader In Red Hot Field At St. Paul Open St Paul, Minn. (U.R) Drawl ing Henry Ransom, St. An drews, 111., and rookie Al Besse link, Escondido, Calif., led a red-hit field today into the sec ond round of the $15,000 St Paul Open golf tournament at Keller course. .

Sh rine Grid Scuffle Should Be Tops for Spectator Enjoyment foruana From a spectators anticipated m the fifth renewal standpoint one of the finest foot ball games ever played in Ore gon was last year's Shriner's Hospital attraction between the Oregon and Portland All-Stars, won by the state team 20 to 13. One reason for the spectacular type of offensive play- which was exhibited was the system of set defenses adopted by coaches and Shrine game officials. Reasoning that with only two weeks for the coaches to get their offensive attacks perfected it would be "difficult to cope with several types of defenses, a standard 6-2-2-1 defensive alignment was agreed upon and the results of the game proved it was a wise move. Two Wins Each of the traditional series here at Multnomah stadium, Saturday night, August 23. The game may lack the stars of the professionals and co llegians who will perform in the stadium later, but for sheer spectator enjoyment it undoubt edly will be one of the best con tests of the year.
