Card's Musial Puts Redbirds Back Into Tie By The Associated Press Judging from the wy Stan Musial has been renewing sc quaintancea with his pitching "cousins," the St. Louis Cardinals' slugging outfielder may becoma the first big leaguer to attain a .41)0 batting mark since 1841 and the first National leaguer to ' reach those heights in 16 years. The 23-year-old ex-gob, who interrupted a brilliant career to join the navy at the end of the 1944 season, quietly has been mauling enemy hurlers for 27 hits in 65 appearances at the plate to compile a batting mark of .413. Musial got hix hits yesterday as the Cards gained an even split with Boston's Braves and moved into a first place tie with Brooklyn in the National race. His trio of safeties in the opener helped give the Cards a 7-2 decision and Lefty Max Lanier his fourth victory without defeat. The Braves with big Mort Cooper holding his former mates to 10 well scattered blows, turned the tables in the nightcap 10-4. 1 Another former Redbird with Boston, Outfielder Johnny Hopp. got six hits for the day, two of them home runs in the nightcap as Boston Manatrer Billy South worth got an even break in his first series in St. Louis. Bucs Down Dodgers Pittsburgh knocked the Dodg ers out of undisputed first place by sweeping a doubleheader be fore an overflow crowd of 37,933. A pinch single by Jimmy Brown scored Jack Barrett for an 11th inning triumph in the opener. Another timely hit, by Frankie Gustine in the sixth, brought a 4-3 victory In the nightcap, halt ed by Pennsylvania's curfew law. Rip Sewell, who hurled the first nine innings of the opener for Pittsburgh, was taken to a hospital suffering from a gastro intestinal upset. Pittsburgh's double victory put the heretofore disappointing Bucs in a fourth place tie with the Chicago Cubs. Huge Ernie Bonham made his 1946 Yankee pitching debut a success by whipping the Chi cago White Sox 4-2 before 33.938. It was the Yankees' fifth straight victory. Hank Hits One Detroit's losing streak soared to seven until Hank Greenberg snapped the string by belting a homer and then setting off a two run rally with a single to give the Tigers a 5-4 victory over Philadelphia. The Athletics copped the opener 10-2 as Bobo Newsom notched his third vic tory.

With Shortstop Cecil Travis enjoying a perfect five for five at the plate, Washington's Sena tors overpowered the Cleveland Indians 12-4 to move into a fifth place tie with the White Sox and drop the Tribe into seventh place. Pels Meet Acid Test The Klamath Pelicans under go an acid test, one on which their hopes of participating in state baseball play hang, tomor row afternoon on Del Moro field when they play host to the Grants Pass Cavemen. The game is scheduled to be gin at 3 p. m. and will probably be the toughest of the current season for the K-men. Grants Pass stands in the way of the Pelicans and possible en try in the state baseball finals this year. The Cavemen are un beaten in this conference, hav ing trimmed the locals by a score of 7 to 1 already. That is the only Pelican loss. A win over the Grants Pass boys tomorrow would throw them in to a tie for the loop leadership and probably set up another playoff game to decide which nine goes to the Portland tour ney. Coach Ed Ryan will probably start his workhorse of the mound staff, Joe Carroll, against the Cavemen, but will be prepared to throw in every man on the squad to beat the Rogue river boys.

By HALE SCARBROUGH Retriever Club With the organization of the Klamath Retriever club last week and the possibility that field trials will be held here next fall, inter est in real sport hunting takes another swing upward in this area. A good trained retrieve er is a valu able companion on a hunting trip, a thing of beauty to watch work al so with a good dog the master sure of locat ing the birds he knocks down. From a humanitarian stand point it lessens the chance that a crippled or winged bird will get away in the brush to suffer and die, doing neither the hunter, the bird or the sport any good. Members of the Portland Re triever club have offered to come down this fall and help put on getting the field trials started. Approximately 30 dog owners and sportsmen got to gether to organize the local club, so with that many hunters in terested there will probably be some outstanding dogs devel oped here. Klamath county and southern Oregon is one of the best bird hunting areas in the country and the interest in retrievers should be a great help to sportsmen who want to get the most en joyment out of hunting. L. P. Montgomery was chosen president of the club; Dick Mor gan, vice president; Jack Hale, Harold Van Hoosen and Wallace Uerlings, directors, and Dr. F. Cecil Adams, secretary - trea surer. Anyone wishing to join the club, get any information about the organization or the proposed field trials here, or about hunt ing dogs generally, can contact any of those men.

Oaks Drop Back This dropped Casey Stengel's Oakland club back into its ac customed third place, a half game behind Los Angeles, and ended the series with a 4-3 for Hollywood.
