Midland T7 PAGE TEN Hit-Poor Sunset Tilts Puzzle Major Leaguers Pirates Punish Dodgers in Day Go; Cincis Nose Phillies in Night Tilt By JUDSON BAILEY Associated Press Sporti Writer Somebody must have sneaked a supply of the original balata (pronounced baloney by the players) balls into the major league parks under cover of darkness last night. There were two games played in the daylight yesterday and in one the Pittsburgh Pirates punished the Brooklyn Dodgers 17.4. The two teams made a total of 28 hits. In the other the New York Giants beat the Chicago Cubs 4-2 and there were 22 hits. But after the sun had set, look what happened: I Cincinnati nosed out the Phil lies 1-0 and Washington whipped the St. Louis Browns by the same score. There wasn't a swat in either game longer than a sin gle and the four teams together made a total of only 19 hits. Another flood-lighted affair was an 11-inning scramble at St. Louis with the Boston Braves beating the Cardinals 4-3 and even though it included a cou ple of Cardinal home runs, it also was a pitching party. Lou Klein and Walker Cooper hit homers for two 6f the six hits given up by Al Javery as he counted his fourth victory against one defeat. The Braves touched Mort Cooper for ten safeties, bunched four of them with an error for three runs in the fifth and then won the game in the 11th when Eddie Joost led off with a single and ulti mately came home on a single by Rookie Charley Workman. This boosted the surprising Braves within half a game of the second place St. Louis Red- birds. The day games were a strik ing contrast to these duels. ' At Pittsburgh the Pirates scored 15 runs in the first three innings off Max Macon and Les Webber, getting five of their runs in the second and in the third frame scoring nine times after two were out Vince Di Maggio hit two home runs, one of them with one on and the other with two, and his team mates added an assortment of hits. But what really piled up the score was a series of walks by Webber, who issued nine bases on balls and forced six runs across the plate. Fred Fitzsimmons took over in the fourth and cooled off the Buccaneers, although they added two final runs in the eighth on a triple by Tommy O'Brien. At Chicago the Giants scored all four of their runs in the first three innings off Paul Derringer. The fact that they were outhit 12-10 and could do nothing in the later innings made little dif ference. Oh yes, a certain mad Rus sian, whose name has been in the public prints so much it doesn't need repeating, made his 1943 debut and was the only Chi cago player except the pitcher who failed to get a hit sity of Arkansas on his own time . . . He'll be limited to such I things as blocking, feinting and footwork, since the air corps doesn't want anybody to get hurted by a stray punch . . . . Fort Monmouth, N. J., claims a record of some sort with two no hit baseball games on successive days. The 1226th service unit was the victim both times, losing 10-0 to the 15th signal training unit, which used three pitchers, and 12-0 to the Camp Wood team, with Mel Shapsowitz, for mer Brooklyn college Singer, on the hill.

Y. i 90.4 Proof ft I Empir May 27, 1943 mm inaian man Rates Team One to Beat Br BILL KING BOSTON, May 27 (IP) Now that Lou Boudreaju, youthful manager of the top-place Cleve land Indians, has had a chance to study all of the American league opposition at close-rango, he still rates his club as "the one to beat" "I said before the season open ed that we would be the ones to beat and I have not seen any thing in any of the other clubs to make me change my mind," Bou dreau said. Although the Indians start their first eastern swing against the Red Sox today with the one .300 hitter, Oris Hockett, there are enough of the other regulars close enough to that charmed slugging circle to give the club a potent punch. The Indians' chieftain prides himself on getting the best of the deal that sent Roy Weatherly and Oscar Grimes to the Yan kees for Catcher Buddy Rosar and Outfielder Roy Cullcnbine. Cullenbine has filled in very well for us, not only in the out field but also at first base and Rosar, now our first-string catch er, is hitting better than ever," Boudreau said. "I think we got the best of that trade but then it was the sort of a deal that should help both clubs." Western Sports Streamline By RUSS NEWLAND SAN FRANCISCO, May 27 VP) Memo: This condensed sports fixture will consist of some fresh news, some rehash, some sense, some nonsense, designed to pre sent a cross section of what's go ing on or may take place on the western front. Quick accelera tion and fast reading is the order of the day. That rumor that Leonard B. "Stub" Allison is on his way out as football coach at the Univer sity of California after head man service since 1935 has cropped up again, this time in Los Ange les. It also has reached Berke ley where General Athletic Man ager Clint Evans hangs out. Evans is nominally Allison's boss. He spikes the gossip this way: "Allison is the football coach." Any coolness between the two dates to Evans' regime as freshman football mentor, as late as last fall. Evans, longer on the Job, taught the yearlings his own methods. ... Without fanfare, a Liberty ship was christened last night as it slid down the ways at Rich mond. It bore the name: "S. S. John L.

In, July, 1889, the day after the Boston strong boy had conquered Jake Kilrain in 75 pounds, a re porter wrote: "A wonderful specimen is this Sullivan. He dines like Gargantua. He drinks like Gambrinus. He has the strength of Samson and the fighting talent of Achilles." . . . a Pacific Coast league baseball is booming from an attendance standpoint if the majors are not.

The scores were 1-0 and 5-4. The first game went twelve Innings before Ted Gullic hit a home run to give the Beavers their first overtime victory in eight such encounters. The An gels had won all of their extra In ning contests this year. Ad Lis ka won the pitching duel with Ken Raffensberger. Each hurler allowed eight, hits in the long grind. Twenty hits were counted in the. second game and it was far from a pitching duel. Two Port land tossers allowed ten safe blows and the Beavers scored as many off three Angelcons. The outcome left the league leading Angels with 29 victories to seven defeats, not quite 200 percentage points ahead of the field. San Francisco made up dis tance in second place by sweep ing its second straight from Seat tle 6 to 4, scoring four runs in the first inning on only two hits. A couple of walks and an error helped, and one of the blows was Henry Steinbacher's triple. It was a loose contest with Seat tle not only outhltting the Seals 12 to 10 but also outfumbling them, five errors to three. San Diego crept Into third place, evening its series with Hollywood, by a 4 to 3 squeeze. Jack Calvey singled to center with two out in the ninth to score Pitcher Chet Johnson. Sacramento made it two in a row over Oakland and dropped the Acorns into fourth place and a 500 percentage. Clem Dreise werd shut out the visitors 7 to 0 on ten hits.

A strengthened team is sure to be put on the field, as more additional ballplayers arc to be signed before the week Is out. Goldbar, an outfielder, and Crispi, shortstop, both from last year's Dorris Lumberjacks arc expected to sign. Goldbar hit 10 home runs last year and Crispi is a crackcrjack on defense. A boy from San Francisco, Bill Kennerley, sends word that he will be in Klamath Falls this weekend and is expected to sign. Kennerley played in the fast In dustrial league in San Francisco, where he hit over .300. Ho is a smooth working first baseman and should strengthen the in field greatly. , Several high school boys, who are playing on the city all-star team and look impressive in workouts, may be signed by the Pelicans.
