Don Black Tosses
No-Hit Game
Brooklyn's Ralph Branca Wins Pair
From Chicago In Iron-Man Performance
By JACK HAND
AwacUted Press Sport Wrttrr
Don Black, a reformed character who was "all washed up" a year
ago, has eclipsed Ills famous Cleveland teammate, Bobby Feller, by
pitching the first; no-hlttr of the American league season.
Black's effort was Utile spotty In the early singes. He walked the
first two men he faced and leaned heavily against his mates' fielding
en route to his dazzling success against his old Philadelphia mates.
Joe Oordon's overhead running catch of an Elmer Valo pop fly In
right field In the third inning was the fielding gem that saved the
day. Black, who had thrown two no-hitters for Petersburg. Va., in the
' class D Virginia league in 1M2, helped set up his 3-0 margin, pushing
home one run with a squeeze bunt.
Feller, whose aching back forced him to miss the all-star game,
racked up his Hth victory In Uie S-l second game but he required help
from Ed Klleman in the ninth to
save the edge given mm by nans

Frisco Gains
One Notch As
Angels Skid
By The Associated Press
If there were more pitchers like
Bob Chesnes and Rugger Ardizoia
around the Coast league, the Los
Angeles Angels wouldn't be sailing
along three games in front
Ardizoia, uie Hollywood right
hander, stopped tlie Angels cold
with three hits last night as the
Stars racked up an easy 11-1 win.
Chesnes. the loop's hottest hurling
article, won his 16th game against
six setbacks as second-place San
Francisco trimmed Oakland. 8-2.
and gained a lap on the Angels.
Chesnes again did everything
but tend the bats as he set the
Oaks down with seven hits and
smacked out four himself includ
ing a double and triple. The Seals
maltreated Fiord Speer and Tom
Hafey with 14 bint Irs in taking a
two-games-to-one series lead.
All Ardizoia had to do was pitch.
His mates took care of the blasting.
Frankie Kelleher slapped two out
of the park to bring his total to 11
as a part-time performer, and big
Al Libke clouted another.
Sacramento and Portland pulled
into a lourtn-piace aeaoiocE as tne
Solons whipped Seattle. 7-6. and
the Beavers measured San Diego
again, s-7.
It was an extremely unlucky night
for Seattle. Second Baseman Tony
York gummed up two double plays
to set up the pins for the Solons'
winning four-run rally in the eighth.
The Ralnlers also lost the services
indefinitely of Catcher Rome Hems
ley, with a finger split by a foul
tip, on top of First Sacker Mickey
Rocco's accidental beaning Tuesday.
The Rainiers at least didn't fall
Into the cellar. San Dieeo was still
there to hold 'em up. The Padres
lost their third out of four played
with Portland as the Beavers made
better use of 10 hits, to the Padres'
12. Old Ad Liska was the winner,
although Andy Sierra had to finish

Cut-Down Roadsters
Will Make First Run
On Fairgrounds Oval
The hot rods are coming to Klamnth Falls.
On Sunday, July 20, between 20 and 25 cut-down, uiulerslung,
souped-up stock car speedsters and their pilots will stage a series of
races out at the county fairgrounds on the dirt track, the first time
the hot rods will have appeared in action here.
Counting the time trials during which drivers vie for pole positions
for the various heats of the races, about four hours of speeding will be
on tap for the afternoon. The cars are now in Portland for a show on
Sunday, then will drop down to Salem for another and be here on the
week-end.
These cars are mostly ancient roadsters, stripped down to the bare
chassis essentials but with any type and power motor the owner can
find to install. Some of the fellows In the game spend hundreds and
even thousands of dollars putting hopped-up motors into their Jalopies.
About the only restriction Is that the vehicle mustn't take up any
more space on the ground than an ordinary, everyday roadster,
Outstrip The Big Gas Buggies
Hot rod racing was originated in Los Angeles back In the so's as
an Inexpensive orphan brother of auto racing, but how It's grown. The
hottest hot rod on record was clocked at something like 141 miles an
nour on tne uutn sail uau. mey gnocg olf lap averages of 100 m.nJi.
or more all the time.
The fairgrounds dirt track is Just a five-eighths mile run with about
30 degree turns on the ovals, but the drivers expect to clip off some
fancy times nevertheless.
In the time trials the drivers take three laps around the track from
a full running start, and the time of their best lap or best time on one
lap determines their starting position for the races each driver enters,
The skipper setting the best pace In the trial gets the inside pole
position, second oesi time gets second place ana so on.
a
Les Anderson Coming For Race
The races here will be conducted under the rules of the Oregon
Racing association, with drivers brought in from other points In Ore'
gon. Nevada. Washington and California.
One of the pilots who Is scheduled to run a hot rod here is Les
Anderson of Portland, one of theMJ men who finished the 500-nille
Indianapolis speedway grind Memorial Day. That was Anderson's first
attempt at Indianapolis and he finished 11th, Just out of the money.
Now he's back in the Northwest and running his souped-up jalopy
(not the one he drove at Indianapolis) in races around the country.
Crash Show Under Floodlights
As a sort of prelude to the hot rod races, this coming Saturday
night at the fainrrounds a dare devil troupe called the Hollywood
ueatn uoogers win put on a tnnils and spills show under the flood
lights.
The drivers who make up this group double in brass as stunt men
in tne movies. They drive stock sedans, Plymouths. In their stunts and
two or three of the white-painted cars have been around town for the
past several days.
Some of the things these boys make their livings at include crashing
burning walls, head-on collisions, high ramp leaps and other forms of
calculated late teasing.
