SIX HERALD AND NEWS Thursday. July 26. 1945 HAINES Slammin' Sammy In Tarn O'Shonter Open Samuel Jackson Snead has announced his entry into the lists of the $60,000 All-American Open to be played at Chicago's Tarn O'Shantor course and we are going to climb out on a limb ' and pick Slammin' Sammy to win. Even though Snead nas jusi recovered iroiu a broken hand, we think ho has the stuff to top Lord' Byron Nelson, the favorite, Lt. Ben Hogan, Jug McSpaden and numerous other star entries. We think a story lies in the way in which Samuel broke his hand which kept him out of competition for several months. He suffered the injury while playing softball with the cad dies. Now at first glance this may seem trivial, but just try to find another top flight golfer who would take the time to get out and bat a softball around with a bunch of kids. This is the element in Snead that makes the gallery go along with him. That makes them cheer wildly when Sammy makes a good shot and makes them groan when he misses one. It's the element that makes him the most colorful golfer of all time with the possible exception of Walter Hagen, who, it has been said, could shoot an amazing game of golf while pretty well in his cups. We have written of Snead before. The way he talks to the gallery and grins whether the going is good or bad. He-s going to have the stiffest competition the game can provide at Chicago in the richest tournament of them all. Nelson is in the midst of a streak of fine golf that is absolutely unparalleled in the annals of the game. And yet, we believe that Snead can beat him. In the match played in May between Nelson and Snead, the two golfers split Snead winning in medal play and Nelson copping the match play test, 4 and 3. . Since then, Lord Byron has blazed across the golf firmament like a comet, winning tournament after tournament Snead has been on the sidelines since he was forced to quit the Phila delphia Inquirer tourney, but we believe that when the last shot is fired Slammin' Samuel will have once again proved that he has what it takes by winning the All-American Open. Reds Get Bowman On Waiver By JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Writer Prize sleeper play of the base ball season appears to be the sleieht-of-hand trick by which Cincinnati acquired Joe Bow man from the Boston Red Sox for the nominal $7500 waiver fee. Stories about the Mort Cooper-Charley Barrett, Buddy Ros- ar-iranKie Hayes ana joe aiea-wick-Clvde Kluttz deals have hit the headlines but Bowman's movine dav was buried with the Pony league scores and the Brit ish football results. The 35-year-old righthander has been pitching since laua ana has seen action with both Phila- delphia clubs and the New York tiiants ana pmsburgn peiore the Red Sox brought him back from the minors last year. This spring in Boston he was knocked out three times running, losing two decisions before Manager Joe Cronin and the other skip pers waived him out of the cir cuit May 29. Bowman Wins Eight Once Bowman arrived in Cin cinnati, whether it was the han dling of wily Bill McKechnie or the change of scenery in a new league, he became a ball of fire. Nobody beat him in five outings until the Phillies did the trick July 1. In 10 starting appear- Bevos Trip Suds, 6-2; Seals Win Pulford Notches 17th Win; Skiff Protests Decision; Seals-Oaks Gama Near-Riot By PAUL WELLS Associated Press Sports Writer Portland's Beavers regained their seven-game Pacific Coast league leadi Sacramento's Solons scored 23 runs to set a new sea son's mark, and San Francisco's Bob Joyce won his 22nd game of the year to highlight circuit play last night. The 6-2 Portland victory over the second-place Seattle lUiiniers squared the series between the two northwest duos at one-ail. Sacramento's lopsided 23-6 win over the San Diego Padres and San Francisco's 12-6 triumph over the Oakland Acorns also put those teams even-Stephen for the week. At Hollywood the Stars made it two straight over the Los Angeles Angels, winning 6-4. Skiff Files Protest Manager Bill Skiff of the Rninicrs filed an official protest in the mildest of the umpire player disputes which flared both in Seattle and San Fran cisco. Skiff was overruled when he argued that Beaver Pitcher Dun Pulford's weak pop-up, which fell safe and loaded the sacks in the sixth, was an infield fly and automatic out. After the wrangle on the field was ended, Portland chased in three runs that inning to give Pulford a safe lead and his 17th win of the season. j Near-Riot Develops j A near-riot developed in the Seals-Acorns game after Umpire aneei to date, the veteran has won 8, lost 2 and gone the route; Cicero Falls had called Second eight times, making more than j Baseman Del Young safe on a one fan wonder how he was i ciose pay at the plate.

Brother Mort, still troubled by a sore arm, has start ed only once in a month for Bos ton and was on record as saying ho would be able to take only short turns the rest of the season pending a winter operation. Bar rett was knocked out of the box i two times running by Brooklyn but he has compiled a 10-4 rec ord in St. Louis and 12-7 for the year. Neither Hayes nor Kosar were exciting any commotion in the junior circuit race although Frankie still was in there every day for Cleveland setting rec ords and Rosar was in and out of the A's lineup and below .200 in the batting derby. Medwick Riding Bench Medwick has been riding the bench in Boston after starting a few games, and Kluttz has been doing considerable catching for the Giants. Vince DiMaggio has proved more helpful to the Phillies than Al Gerheauser to Pittsburgh. Di Mag has hit 14 into the stands and Gerheauser has won only two while dropping eight for the BUCS. There is no debate about the swap that worked out best for one of the principles involved. That's the one that sent Ben Chapman from Brooklyn to the Phillies for Catcher Johnny Pea cock. Ben wound up becoming manager of the Phils when Freddy Fitzsimmons resigned. Paavo Wants Surfboard Ride in i L '' fek- Paavo Katonen tries to slap a surfboard hold on Jack Riser in their tussle last week at the Klamath biceo bin. Tomorrow night Kiser will collide with Tex Hager in the opener and Ka tonen will meet Georges Dussetto In the semi-windup. The main bout features Jack Lipscomb and Antone Leone, who was re quired to post $100 forfeit money for his appearance in the local ling after taking a Brody last week. shoving him around. The epi sode resulted in Manager Bill Raimondi of the Oaks, his broth er, Al, and First Baseman Vic Picetti being ordered from the game. Before the turbulent sixth inning was over San Fran cisco had scored six runs and put the game on ice. New Scoring Mark Set Sacramento's 23-6 win over the Padres was a comedy of er rors, walks and basehits. The Solons scored 17 runs in the first four innings, getting seven in the second on four safeties and nine in the fourth on three hits as the San Diego infield fell apart. Five Padre pitchers issued 10 passes, gave up 22 hits and saw their mates commit six miscues. Usually-steady Carl Dumler was charged with the defeat. Hollywood's Ronnie Smith held the Angels to seven swats, one of them a home run by Pinch-hitter Johnny Moore, in winning 6-4. Moore's four-ply swat accounted for three Los Angeles runs in a ninth-inning rally. Arnold And Quigley Ball Team Defeats Bellingham Bells, 5-4 VANCOUVER, B. C, July 26 (IP) The Arnold and Quigley baseball team defeated the Bel lingham Bells 5-4 in an 11-in-ning Senior City league game here yesterday and moved into a third place tie with the Norvans.
