NEW YORK, June 27
The national blame. ... the cur
rent hitch in the growing pro
gram to encourage kid baseball
appears to be lack of equipment.
. . , Carl V. Biley, reporting on
the Dubuque, la., setup which
has" grown from 10 teams last
year to 18 this season (in a city
of 42,000), explains that lack of
equipment prevents fielding a
couple more teams in the 14-16
year group. . . And from Hazel
ton. Pa.. Hill Morgan tells of the
headache involved in staging a
growing program for boys when
t isn't possible to buy enough
baseballs. . . . "With some out
side help," says Bill, "we man
aged to squeeze the two high
school leagues through n season
but our summer boys' league is
a different matter. About eight
dozen would see us through as
the boys intend to use only one
new ball and one used ball a
game. ... Of course, no one is
complaining since the armed
forces have gotten the available
supplies."

The smallest field ever entered
in the $100,000 Santa Anita

for Saturday's renewal of the

Only 10 or 11 starters seemed
likely to parade to the post after
Miss Carlotta Jelm's Bull Reieh

One additional starter El

popped up and started a Jot of

CINCINNATI, June 37 (IP)
Action in the 45th annual trl
state tennis tournament stepped
up today as the "name players"
moved into the quarter finals
without any particular difficul
ty. High spot in today's program
comes when Sarah Palfrey
Cooke, Boston, national women's
champion in 1941, teams with
her husband in the men's dou
bles event. They play against
Yamguchi and Satto, a pair of
Cincinnati Japanese-Americans.
It was the first time a woman
has entered the men's event but
local officials said they could
find no rule against it if no
objection was raised by the op
posing players.
Segura Takes
First Court
Fray Easily
EVANSTON. 111., June 27 (IP)
It looks like Pancho Segura, the
transplanted Ecuadorian seeking
his third straight national col
legiate tennis singles title, may
add the doubles crown to the
list of court championships he
already holds.
Segura had no trouble going
into the third round of the 61st
national collegiate tournament
here yesterday, in the singles di
vision. But his teammate, Tom
Burke, from Miami (Fla.) uni
versity came up with the biggest
upset of the second round.
Burke easily breezed past
Charles Samson. last year's final
ist from Notre Dame, 6-1, 6-1, to
get into the third round.
Wins Easily
Segura, who uses an unortho
dox two-handed stroke,' took
things comparatively easy as he
eliminated another Notre Dame
player, George Ratterman, 6-2,
6-3, in his first appearance of
the tournament yesterday. He
had drawn a bye through the
first round.
Segura meets Delbert Russell
of Wayne university and Burke
faced Carroll McCarter of Texas
in today s third round.
None of the favorites to reach
the quarter-finals had any dif
ficulty in second round matches
with the exception of Howard
McCall of Georgia Tech, seeded
No. 6. McCall had to come from
behind in a two-hour match to
eliminate Arnold Beisser of the
College of the Pacific, 5-7, 9-5,
7-5, in the only extra set match
of yesterday's competition.

Browns, 54
New York Shaves Vx Game
From Detroit's 1st Place
Margin; Trail By 1 Game
Br JOE REICHLER
Associated Press Sports Writer
It took 11 months and nine
attempts, but the New York
Yankees finally have defeated
the St. Louis Browns at Sports
mans' Park.
In registering their sixth
straight victory lost night 5-4,
ana uieir nrst over SI. Louis at
the Browns' home field since last
July 21, the McCnrthymcn
shaved a half-game from De
troit s first place margin. They
now trail by only one game.
The game marked the start ot
the Yankees' second invasion of
the west where they've fared
none too well last May, when
lliev rironDed Mix out of nine, in
cluding four straight to the
Browns.
Browns In Slump
It was a different St. Louis
outfit the Yankees faced, how
ever, from the team that swept
them off their feet Inst month.
Whereas the American league
champions were in the midst of
a winning streak in their previ
ous mound city clash, the Sew
ellmen are in the throes of a
slump which has seen them drop
nine of their last 13 games, and
drop into sixth place, five games
under the .500 mark.
The star of the Yankees tri
umph was Relief Pitcher Bill
Zuber. The 31-yenr-old lowan
relieved Starter Walter Dubicl
in the sixth inning and held the
Browns scoreless the rest of the
way with two hits to receive
credit for the first victory of the
season. Zuber won his own
game with a single that drove
in Tuck Stacback with the run
that broke a 4-4 tie in the
eighth. It not only earned the
Yankees their ninth one-run de
cision, but marked the Brown
ies 14th loss by the same margin.
Brownie Tie Score
The Yankees breezed to a 3-0
lead in the first two innings, but
the Browns came back to knot
the count in the third. With
Tex Shirley having taken over
for Al Hollingsworth and pitch
ing airtight ball, aided by four
double plays, the Browns forged
ahead in the fifth, but a Yankee
tally tied It in the sixth. .
The victory was pleasing to
the Bronxites, as until last night
they had lost all of their five
previous arc-light contests, in ad
dition to dropping two out of
four twilight games. .
Cincinnati at Boston, the only
other major league tilt sched
uled yesterday, was postponed
by rain.
BASKETBALL IN S. P.
DETROIT Marine PFC Joe
Mader, former Titan court ace
writes that basketball is a year
round sport at his base in the
Mariana islands where he is
player-manager of one of the
camp teams. He says they have
just completed laying a cement
deck for the court and so their
play has unproved along with
the improved facilities.
