Ted Williams says this alone it for him after the 1754 baseball season, when he will devote business hours to his fishing tackle business in Miami, Florida. i rands Expelled From Rio Grande RIO GRANDE, Ohio Wl Tiny Rio Grande College has expelled Bevo Francis, the shy, gangling farm boy who put It on the na tional basketball map. Francis, an awkward hill-coun try lad who speaks slowly when he speaks at all, in two years changed Rio Grande from a school without even a basketball court to one with a big-time basketball program. Monday night the school's com mittee on instruction issued a Perfect Game Missed By Kegler SEATTLE Ml A bowler who missed a perfect game by a sin gle pin turned In the day's best performance at the 52st American Bowling congress tournament Monday. Dale Carter, 27-year-old rooter from Bremerton, Wash., rolled a 299, missing the payoff score on his 12th frame when the No. 7 pin wobbled and wavered, then righted itself. The 299 game; the first of this tournament and the first minus one effort since the 1951 ABC at St. Paul, Minn., is the 15th in the Sl-year history of the World Series of bowling. The only perfect game of thls meet, and the 13th in an ABC tournament, was rolled by Tony Sparando or Rego Park, N. Y. on March 31. ', Carter followed his 299 with a 205 and hit 171 In the third game for a 675 total, two pins short of a berth in the singles top ten. While the final total kept him out of the top ten, - the 299 game elected him to an elite circle. He is the 28th man in the 52 years of ABC tournament bowling to roll a 299 or 300 game. And that takes in more than 1,780,000 games. No other bowlers In doubles and singles threatened the top ten and the full day of bowling ended with no changes in the standings. : l aVa 11 a By THE ASSOCIATED TRESS BASKETBALL PEORIA, III.

SALE ENDS THIS WEEK SAVINGS . hi" i- 3 I statement saying Francis had been dropped from the rolls because of "an excessive number of unex- cused absences, failure to make up more than one of his missed mid-term examinations, and fail ure to attend any classes In the last two weeks." APPEARED The announcement appeared to take everyone by surprise, includ ing Francis' coach and personal friend. Newt Oliver, and Bevo's father. As for Bevo his real name Is Clarence he was "out fishing" at the time, apparently unaware of tne commotion caused oy nis ex pulsion. Oliver asked, in tones of dis belief: "Who expeUed him?" In Wellsville, Bevo's fatber drawled: "Why, I was lust talk ing to Bevo this evening and he didn't say anything about It." . Francis, a 30-year-oia sopho more who learned his basketball by shooting at hoop in a hay loft, holds the small college sea son scoring record. The 6 feet 1 center scored 1.25S points last sea son for a 27-game average of 40.5. TROUBLE When Bevo first game to Rio Grande, the Sc-ithcm Ohio college with 94 stujents was having trou ble maklug ends meet. But recently, J. Boyd Davis, chairman of the school's board, said "our campaign for funds $300,000 in three years is off to a good start. Pledges are well above $100,000." Francis a few weeks ago said he might have to quit after this term because "bills are piling up. "If Bevo goes, I guess I'll go with him," Oliver said then. Monday night be backed it up. "I came with Bevo and we'll go together." he told a reporter. But, he said, be would not re sign immediately. Oliver seemed surprised ai me announcement of his protege's dis missal. "Somebody's overshot his au thority. Nobody ever has been kicked out before the end of the term before," he said. What will Bevo do now? Oliver wasn't talking about the offers Francis, has had to play basketball for pay, but he said: Bevo won c go nungry." Lausse Wins Split Decision BROOKLYN, N.Y.

Coach Tommy Ivan's Birds lead the Canadiens 1-2, but they've never finished up a Stanley Cup series on enemy ice, so they have a Jinx working against them.

They must win not only Tuesday night, but also in Detroit on Friday if they can draw It out to toe full seven games.

So without further wanning tin, let's stick out the Ted neck. After sitting up all night, I've come to only one conclusion.

National Brooklyn, Milwaukee, New York, St. Louis, Philadelphia, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Chicago. The Yankees could be beaten, but the question Is by whom. You'd like to pick against them and this trip not just to be different until Readies Matthews SEATTLE m Jack Hurley. the dour deacon of Seattle, Tues- aay prepared nis athlete, Heavy weight Harry (Kid) Matthews for a June 1 date with British heavy weight king Don Cockell at Lon don's White Center arena. The cagey Seattle manager, a veritable bloodhound where -a lu crative gate might be In the offing, said last week he would be "re luctantly-forced'' to aocept an at tractive offer by London promoter Jack Solomon, for tha outdoor match. Monday night Hurler grave in. while talking on a transatlantic circuit to Solomons, and accepted we oner. Matthew's guarantee wasn't an nounced, but the fight crowd here aald it probably was within a few dollars of the 1 1.000 Hurley was using as bait for a Matthews-Cockv- eu bout here. Hurley's reluctance to travel to London was prefaced by the $100,- wo gate tne two ooxers arew nere last. August, when Cockell pounded out a split decision over the Se attle Kid. . CockeU'a boxing star has risen since then, largely on the basis of urs recent victory over ranking American neavy Roland Lastarsa. Huney says Be figures Mat thews, by sidetracking the Cockell express, would stand a good cnance or getting' a crack at Rookv Marclano's heavyweight crown next September. And then. too. there's always the matter of some sas.ooo. MAKE YOUR SPRINft SUIT A DOHCASTER AMERICA'S GREATEST SUIT VALUE HI i f aPtaumte you inspect the Red Sox, White Sox and Indians. The so-called Bombers now do it from memory. A half dosea of them have grown richer man anybody but Casev Stetizcl. Frank Croaettl and Bill Dickey by helping to win .five successive World Series. The Red Box are Interesting, but. as Manager Richards of the Pale Hose stresses, they're still not go ing to beat the Yankees with boys. The White Box defy analysis as contenders, but there they are. Here is baseball's greatest exam ple of what a clever pilot can do with half a chance. The Indians have been together too long, are in a rut. They have become creatures of habit. They're like the horse In stall two. Turn him loose and he'll. dash for stall tiro, except this time he is quite lf 4)1 Wit '(CIjebbS)' likely to be lassoed by the Bosox and Onlsox and locked in stall four. The Senators are sorely handi capped because they can't steal first base. The Athletics are the Yankees' junior varsity. The Ti gers are waiting for some more kids like Harvey Kuenn to grow up. Baltimore inherits the Browns, last place and all. . In the National League, if the Brooks were a . running horse, they'd be odds-on. The Superbas have altogether too much solid strength. , The others have too many ifs and weaknesses, are banking too heav ily on promises and hope. , You get into minor league pitch ing too ouicklv when discussing the Braves and Warren Spahn is re lated the Dodgers.
