Newspaper Page TextRedbirds Drop Off Top Perch Br The Associated Press St. Louis Cardinals, who couldn't "see" Ewell Blackwell when the itringbean Cincinnati righthander wai recommended to them live years ago, wouldn't mind at all If they never saw him aiiain. Not only did the 23-yoar-old, six-foot-five-inch fireballer from Fresno, Calif., knock the Redbirds out of their half of the top perch In the National league standings last night, but he became the second hurler to register two victories over the Cards. Pitts burgh's Ken HcinUelman Is the other. In clipping the Redbirds' wings 5-1 for the Reds, Blackwell dealt the Cards only four hits and turned back six on strikeouts. Defeat dropped the Cards into second place, one full game behind Brooklyn Dodgers wno" took over undisputed possession of first place by whipping Phil adelphia Phils t)-i. Hal Wins Saranth Hal Ncwhouser Joined Bos ton's Mickey Harris as the ma Jor's only seven-game winners when the lanky southpaw ace pitched Detroit Tigers 10 a o-i victory over Chicago White Sox. The game marked the last appearance as manager of Jim my Dykes, who turns over the reins to Ted Lyons today. Held hitlcss for the first sev en innings by Boston's Ed Wright, New York Giants came to life to tie the score in the last half of the ninth and won the game 2-1 in the 11th when Ernie Lombard! smote a pinch hit home run. Borowy Loses Rookie Outfielder Ralph Ki ller and Veteran Pitcher Preach er Roe combined to lead Pitts burgh to a 6-3 victory over Chi cago Cubs. Kiner blasted a three-run homer while Roe spaced eight hits effectively. Hank Borowy, league's leading pitcher last season, went down to his third defeat against only one victory this year. The only other scheduled con test, between Washington and the St. Louis Browns, was post poned by rain.

Of course it was more than a matter of simple economics, since Jersey Joe was going to get just about coffee and cake mon ey with maybe a bit more thrown in for the morning pa pers for clobbering Laughing Lee thoroughly and frequently all around Madison Square Gar den last night, while Oma was picking up a flat $35,000 for practically getting his ears beat off without apparently worrying about it. Jersey Joe won this heavy weight decision in 10 rounds for the entertainment of a cozy gath ering of 11,760, obviously cur tailed by the railroad strike. But under one of those fancy finan cial deals, boxing's latest "Cin derella Man" was guaranteeing the reformed tank artist from Detroit a flat $35.000 win. lose or waltz just for getting in the ring with him. And since the gate onlv came to $82,702 gross, or some $62,000 net, Jersey Joe wound ud with about $2000 for himself after paying up Lee. All of which won't buy a lot of shoes for Joe's six kiddies down in Camden. Thats the hard wav to make buck in the beak-busting trade. Oma's obviously was some what easier. He lost only nine out oi iu rounds. Tulelakt Gunners Will Shoot Again The trapshoot held last Sun day at Tulelake by the Tule-lake-Butte Valley Sportsmen's association was such a success that it is planned to hold an other one this Sunday at 10 a. m. A crowd of approximately 300 persons attended the shoot which was the first held at the old location since the beginning of the war. Another good crowd is expected this Sunday. After the shoot refreshments will be served.

It was the then powerful com bination leaning heavily on ex Chicago Cubs playing for Mana ger Bill Sweeney of the Angels that first cut the props from under the Scab, never headed until last week. During .the same week the Hollywood Stars, now the nemesis of the Angels, took a seven-game thrashing in uaKiana s ascendancy. One of the answers to the big Los Angeles fall lies in Holly wood's improved pitching and generally heads-up performances this week. Last night Manny Perez limited the Angels to six hits, while the inspired Twink lers tapped Angel Ace Red Lynn for nine. Weather did what no baseball team has done to the Oaklanders in 10 straight games, stopping them last night at Portland. Rain forced the game to be called in the first half of the irst Inning. Frisco Cops Two Oakland's idleness gave San Francisco, refusing to be count ed out, a doubleheader chance to creep up on the leaders. The Seals defeated the San Diego Padres, 3 to 2 and 4 to 2, leav ing San Francisco a game and a half behind the Acorns. Larry Jansen, giving no walks, fanning four and yielding seven hits, turned in the first win. Lefty Bill Werle, although in trouble in late Innings, limited the Padres to five hits to cop the seven-inning nightcap. With the Padres threatening in the seventh frame of the first game. Manager Pepper Martin went in as a pinchhitter and fanned for the final out. Solons Blast Rainiers The Sacramento Solons and Seattle Rainiers continued their see-saw squabble over sixth place, with the Solons moving in on a 14-5 walloping of the Rai niers. The game evened the clubs' series of two wins apiece. Eleven of Sacramento's and two of Seattle's tallies in the free scoring contest were unearned. Cliff Mapes homered twice and cracked out a single to drive in four of the Seattle runs. The Rainiers committed six errors.
