fielding as well as in percen

Tigers are 25 games behind
Albany. In the tussle yester
day Chez scored a run and
drove in another.

JOHN SCHMITZ HURLS
DECISION FOR YANKEES
By UNITED PRESS
The Yankees still are shopping
around in the National league
waiver market for a pitcher who
who can insure them the pen
nant, but their latest "Johnny"
deal was paving dividends Fri
day even if they can't pick up
a Dickson, Blackwell or Hiller.
Johnny Schmitz came through
with a six-hitter over the Sena
tors Thursday for his first Yan
kee victory, 7 to 2, to join "offi
cially" the other "Johnny's" who
came to the Yankees after the
trading, deadline Mize in 1949,
Hopp in 1950, and Sain in 1951.
The formula is simple. The
Yankees comb the market for
what they need and find a high
priced and supposedly . fading
star with a National league club.
The National league club asks
waivers and usually gets them,
because no other team wants to
assume the large salary. When
waivers are obtained the Yarv
kees close the deal for far above
the $10,000 waiver price.
Slugging Star
Mize, the castoff Giant first
baseman has been a fill-in slug
ging star for the Yankees ever
since. Hopp was a capable pinch
hitter and defensive fill-in at
Weather Should
Help All-Stars
Chicago (U.R) Even the
weather forecast Friday favored
an upset victory by the 1952 Col
lege All-Stars over the Los Ange
les Rams, National Football
league champions in the 19 th re
newal of the annual spectacle m
Soldier Field Friday night.
The prediction called for a
warm humid day with the tem
perature climbing to 94 before
dusk. Those conditions were
made to order for the younger
and numerically stronger college
squad which was a one-touchdown
underdog.
Neither side was too confident
of victory, heading into battle,
although Coach Joe Stydahar of
the Rams said that his team
ought to win.
Garver Traded To Detroit;
Vic Wertz Goes to Browns
Cleveland, Ohio (U.R) Man
ager Marty Marion insisted Fri
day that "pure necessity" caused
the St. Louis Browns to give up
Jitcher Ned Garver to Detroit
)r outfielder Vic Wertz.
"We simply had to have more
unch," declared Marion.
"A fellow like Wertz who can
be used in. our lineup everyday
is bound to help us more than a
fellow like Garver, who we
only could use once a week," he
added.
Delighted vj.h the waiver
deal that brought Wertz to the
Browns Thursday for Garver,
outfielder Jim Delsing and
pitcher Dave Madison, Marion
explained that Sportsman's
Park, home of the Browns, is
tailor-made for a left-handed,
Jong-bjall hitting slugger like
Wertz.
Know He Can Hit
"We realize Wertz hasn't
been having too good a year,"
said the Brownie manager, "but
we all know he can hit and
we're sure that he will in our
park."
Acquisition of the 27-year-old
Wertz, who has a .290 lifetime
batting average but was hitting
only.249 this season, culminated
an eight-player waiver deal, de
scribed as thejargest in baseball
history, between the two clubs.
Earlier in the week, the
Browns obtained outfielder Don
Lenhardt and pitchers Dick Lit
tlefield and Marlin Stuart from
the Tigers in exchange for one
of their farmhands, William

STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY
(Bud) Black, a pitcher with San
Antonio of the Texas league.
Prior Claim
Although the trading deadline
is June 15, the Browns and Tig
ers were able to work out their
waiver deal because they are in
seventh and eighth places, re
spectively, in the standings and
have prior claim to any players
on the waiver list.
"Wertz will play against
Cleveland Friday night," said
Marion.
Garver. a 20-eame winner last
year who has a disappointing ?-
ana-io mark this season is due
to report to the Tigers Saturday.
