It happened again yesterday as Casey made his second straight
relief appearance. The Cards slugged their way to a 13-4 slaughter,
rhe loss was charged to starter Joe Hat ten who was battered to all
corners In a six-run fifth inning. Casey and Clyde King also were
sreated roughly while Howie Pollet tamed the Brooks with nine hits for
lis fourth straight success.

Cbbetts field, the Cards have a
I't-game lead over the runner-up
sew York Giants. Brooklyn is
dxth. only six percentage points
thead of Chicago.
Card Manager Eddie Dyer was
sjected by Umpire Art Gore after
i bitter protest over a Casey pitch
bat hit Catcher Del Rice in the
lead. Earlier Casey had hit Whitey
lurowski with a pitched ball.
The Giants lost ground when they
cere hogtled by Cincinnati's Howie
Pox, 3-1. Fox, an early season
"bust," hurled a neat six-hitter for
lis first win of the year. He started

dngle off loser Dave Koslo.
Elmer Riddle continued his re
narkable comeback by blanking the
Boston Braves with four singles

rett and two successors for 17 hits
II a 13-0 romp. Ralph Kiner hit
ais ninth homer and two doubles
to ease Riddle's path to his fourth
rictory.

i 5-3 decision over.Walt DubieL
Cleveland opened up a game and
a half lead in the American by
drubbing Boston, 13-4. at night after
the runnerup Philadelphia As
bowed to Detroit In the afternoon,
4-3. The Indians profited by the
generosity of Southpsws Mickey
Harris and Maurice McDermott who
tied the major league record by
walking 18 men.
Freddie Hutchinson rationed the
slumping As to five hits while De
troit banged Carl Scheib. Bob Sav
age and Charley Harris for 15 blows.
With Joe DiMaggio enjoying a
field day, the New York Yankees
gave the Chicago White Sox their
daily whipping, 13-2. DIMag hit
two homers, a triple, double and
single for five hits in six trips, driv
ing in six runs.
The St. Louis Browns hopped all
over Washington for a 17-7 night
verdict to move into fifth place,
passing both the Senators and Red
Sox. It was the highest run total

Cinderpath Feudists Clash
On Coliseum Track
By HOB MY PltH
LOS ANGELES, May 31 t'v There Is a healthy rivalry between
two stars in tonight's Los Angeles coliseum relays, and both should be
delighted about It.
Southern California's Pell-Mell Patton and Panama's Lloyd La
Beach ire the two feudists of the cinderpath. and without their honest
rivalry, neither could go as fast and as tar as they have.
Such was ihe case, as historians of the sport point out. when
public fancy centered on the late Charley Paddock in his heydey, and
his successors to the "fastest human" crown have been lucky to have
similar competition right down the

Rain Still
Keeps Gems
Tied Down
Jupiter PIuvlus' hex on the Far
West baseball league was stlU fitting
tight last night and every scheduled
game was rained out for the third
straight night. There hasn't been a
contest In the circuit since last Mon
day. Six clubs are slated to try it again
tonight in the same parks, in what
would have been the wind-up of
three-game stands had the weather
man been more lenient.
Klamath Falls is still trving to get
off its first game with Santa Rosa
here at Gems stadium. Pittsburg is
at Medford and Redding at Marys-
ville. Willows and Orovllle. frustrat
ed by rain at Willows, have moved
over to Orovllle to see If the weather
is any oetter mere.
Yesterday afternoon's sharp rain
and today s clouds do not look pro
mising for the Gems and Santa
Rosa, but the official announcement
whether the game for tonight is on
or off is not expected until the
usual time ot 1:30 p. m.

As a favor to hi roach, though,
he consented to run the 440 one tlay.

"I asked Joe that day If he would
do the quarter against OHO," Noo
berry salil. "He said he wasn't loo

would need the points."
" 'Clinch,' he said, 'I don't like to
work thai hind. If 1 start loading

However, Nebolon ran hla first
