On Bad Inning Newhouser, despite one bad inning in which he yielded all the enemy runs, southpawed his way to his third straight triumph of the young season. He fanned seven to increase his strikeout output to 22 in 27 frames. Greenberg enjoyed a perfect day at the dish with two doubles, a single and a free ticket to first. The reconverted first baseman batted in a run and scored two more including the important Wine marker in the eiiMitn. A single by Birdie Tebbetts fol lowed a moment later to send in Roy Cullenbine with the win ning run. Led by Johnny Pesky and Ed die Pellagrin!, the Red Sox re versed yesterday s 12-5 beating by pounding four New York hur lers for 13 hits including a hom er, triple and double by Fella grini and two doubles and a brace of singles by Pesky. Right hander Joe Dobson held the Yanks to nine hits for his second mound triumph. Into National Lead Brooklyn's dazzling Dodgers moved into undisputed posses sion of first place in the National league without even having to lift a little finger as the St. Louis Cardinals, who shared the top berth with the Brooks, slid down to second spot by bowing to the Pittsburgh Pirates 5-3. A long home run belt by Pittsburgh's Ralph Kiner that traveled fully 450 feet literally knocked the Cards out of the lead. The Cincinnati Reds squelched their 1945 nemesis, the Chicago Cubs, for the first time in four meetings this season with a 7-5 victory. Three Cub miscues gave the Keds as many runs m the seventh inning and chased Start er Hank Borowy for the second straight time this year. Cooper Injured The New York Giants suffered a double blow as they not only bowed to the Boston Braves for the second straight time. 5-4, but lost the services of their ace Catcher Walker Cooper as well. Cooper suffered a fracture of his finger on his right hand when Carvel (Bama) Powell fouled off one of Monte Kennedy's pitches. Cooper will be out of the lineup for at least four weeks. The Chicago White Sox finally combined tight pitching and stout hitting as they thrashed the Cleveland Indians 11-2 on a 17-hit assault. Amateur Welter Joins Pro Rank PORTLAND.

American and National league games are covered in a general As sociated Press roundup story every day and Pacific Coast loop games are in rnother AP roundup story. The standings and game results are printed un der a permanent head. Morning papers, such as the Oregonian, have a slight advaiv tage over PMs in that they have results of ball games played any afternoon or night in the paper next morning. Also for these papers the Associated Press pre pares individual stories of each game. For afternoon papers all the games are incorporated into a general story. That's what we get over the wire and that's what is printed daily in The Herald and News. Here's the situation. Take any particular day, Tuesday for ex ample. The major league and Coast league games are played either in the afternoon or at night. This paper receives the results, corrected standings and stories the next morning and they are published that after noon. Tuesday's games are pub lished on Wednesday's sports page. Games back there start at 11:30 a. m. to 1 p. m. our time and some are finished before this paper goes to press. We will have as many of the results of today's games as we receive over the wire on the front page of today's paper. The Associated Press gets news of what goes on in the east out here pretty quick. On a direct wire the stories and scores come into Portland the instant a re porter back east is tapping the letters out on a teletype key board. Then they're put on the Oregon network and get down here very soon afterward. I think that any critics of this arrangement will find, by look ing through our files, that in the "good old days before the war" exactly the same system was used with possibly more elabora tion than the paper shortage to day allows. Softball Meet Slated Tonight A meeting of Softball enthus iasts is to be held tonight in the council rooms of the city hall, beginning at 7:30, to determine possibilities of the formation of a Softball league in the county. Team managers, players and sponsors are asked to attend this conference tonight. That includes Softball backers from Merrill, Malin, Tulelake, Chiloquin and other towns in this area inter ested in league competition. Harold Hendrickson, who man aged the successful Basin league basketball loop last winter, will conduct the Softball meeting. FORT DOUGLAS, Utah, April 26 UP) Maj. Earl G.

A perpetual trophy, donated by the Lions club, goes to the winner of the annual track meet each year, and is now in the hands of the Pelican cindcrmcn, last year's champs. Dusette Gets Over Martino Strongman Georges Dusetto repeated his win handily over Martino Angelo at the armory last night, withstanding savage onslaughts by the squat Italian, and Martino will be called upon to live up to his bargain by giv ing Dusette a chance to win the coast junior title. Dusette punished the champ with a crushing headlock through the second round of their bout, then clomped it on again for a fall early in the third. Angelo, who kept up a run ning fire of Italian small talk sounding like a balcony scene by the late unlamented and re cently dug-up 11 Duce all through the fight, worked on Duscttes brawnev left arm with stamping hammeflocks in the fourth, then negotiated a straight arm bar for a tumble in the fifth. Georges came back strong in the sixth and clinched the very Mills Defeats Riverside, 4-1 Mills eliminated Riverside from the grade school A soft ball tourney last night, winning 4 to 1, and this afternoon Mills is playing undefeated Roosevelt in the finals. Gaynor Huck, pitching for Mills, allowed only one hit in four innings and Riverside's lone tally was scored off Ronnie Dimmick in the last frame. If Roosevelt beats Mills this afternoon on the high school field the tourney will be over but if Mills wins another game will be played Saturday morn ing.
