Stan MusM Wits Home Run Na.400 Br MILTON RICHMAN United Press International Hey ma, that man's here again! You know which one, Stan (The Man) Musial, the fellow they said was gone for good. 'All that talk about Musial being through resulted from his pitiful start this season, but the 38-year-old Cardinal slugger kept insisting that's all it was-ali talk. By - way oi proving his point, he smashed the 400th homer of his career in the ninth inning Thursday night to beat the Cubs, 4-3, and ele vate the spirits of the last place Cards somewhat even if he couldn't lift them in the National league standings. The homer, struck off re liever Don Elston, was Mus ial's second in as many games and made him the sixth man in major league history to reach the 400 bracket. The five who hit more were Babe Ruth (714), Jimmy Foxx (534), Mel Ott (511), Lou Gehrig (492) and Ted Williams (482). . Musial's wallop traveled more than 400 feet and capped a game in which home runs accounted for all the scoring. Two homers by Jim Marshall and Ernie Banks' seventh of the season gave the Cubs- a 3-0 lead but St. Louis tied the score in the sixth inning on George Crowe's pinch three run homer. Reliever Howie Nunnshut out the Cubs over the last three innings for his second Victory. Pittsburgh defeated Phila delphia, 5-4, in 10 innings, and Los Angeles nipped San Fran cisco, 2-1, in the only other NL games scheduled. Baltimore took over undis puted possession of second place in the American league with a 10-1 triumph over Washington, and Detroit licked Boston, 3-1, in the only two games played in that cir cuit. McBee, Dietz Baseball Club Ashland -Two Jimmys, McAbee and Dietz, lead the Southern Oregon college base ball statistics with McAbee pounding a massive .461 and Dietz hitting .395 to" lead six batters over the .300 mark. ' Outfielder Phil Sword is snorting a .333 average and LeRoy King is wnacking the ball at a .327 clip while Larry Maurer is just over .300 with a .301 average. McAbee also heads in runs scored with 21 and Sword and Schoendienst Slates Exercise Milwaukee -"(UPD - Second baseman Red Schoendienst may begin his fight to return to the Milwaukee Braves next month with "light exercise" which could include throwing a baseball. Braves General Manager John McHale said Thursday night the tuberculosis spec ialist attending Schoendienst has expressed cautious opti mism about his recovery. The physician said the ballplayer has progressed sufficiently in his seventh-month battle with TB that he may take on some thing more strenuous than the long walks he has been tak ing with his young daughters, WILL COACH ALL-STARS Mobile, Ala.-flJP-Weeb Ew- bank of the Baltimore Colts and Jim Lee Howell of the New York Giants have been named to coach the South and North squads, respectively, in the 11th annual All-Star foot ball game here next Jan. 9.

Only instead of.Mu sial, Ted Kluszewski did the honors when he stepped up and hit Jim Owens' first pitch in the 10th inning for his first homer of the year. Norm Larker, subbing for Gil Hodges at first base after the Dodger veteran pulled a muscle' in the third inning, belted a two-run homer off Jack Sanford in the fourth and that was all the Dodgers needed as Stan Williams set the Giants back on six hits. Rookie Jerry Walker of the Orioles snapped the three game winning streak of the Senators when he stopped them on five hits. Baltimore, on the other hand, rapped out 17 hits off loser Pedro Ramos and three relievers. Frank Lary, aided by four double plays, won his third straight game in pitching the Tigers to victory over the Red Sox.

Eugene Hurler Has One-Hitter United Press International If Bob Bolin of Eugene could have gotten by that first inning, he would have had it made. Bolin, Eugene righthander, took his first Northwest League victory of the season Thursday night as Eugene blanked Tri-City 4-0 and he missed a no-hitter by a whisk er. Bolin gave up a double to Dick Satalich with two away in the first frame and was untouchable the rest of the way. He fanned six, gave up eight walks but his teammates came up with three double plays to keep him out of mis chief. Bolin also wielded a heavy bat as he belted a two-run homer in the seventh. Giant Clubhouse Shows Gloom San Francisco -4CPD- Gloom was king in the Giant's club house as they prepared for tonight's game with the Los Angeles Dodgers and there was a good reason-the team is losing it's "sock in trade." "Guess we'll have to have some more batting practice and shake that hitting order around," manager Bill Rig ney groaned Thursday after a 2-1 nipping by the Dodgers. "I'm thinking about going back to the platoon system, also. I'll get as many left handed hitters in the" order as possible when a right hander is working and go with the right handers when we face a southpaw." Which means that a solid facade of right-haaded swing ers was on tap for tonight's contest when the Dodgers' McDevitt (1-0) faces Johnny Antonelli (3-4) in a clash of southpaws.
