Back In IBM, Wllberl Robinson

doubleheader, which standi as the
record for a single game. There
1 no clue to what Uncle Robbie

did not play In It. There seem
to be no record for total hit In a

By HARRY GRAYSON
NEW TOrtK (NEA) An old
Ivory dealer himself, Ooorge Weiss
of the Ysnkees knew Just where to
look when Roy Hamoy departed as
ins aiuo to become general munu-8t-r
of Ihe Phillies.
Having been shortchsnged by
William O. DcWltt a time or two,
Weiss had wholesome respect for
tile man as a Trader Horn. The
World Champions' head man also
saw Bill Dewitt as something of
a tlnonclul genius, who kept Uie
Brown solvent while playing to
empty stands.
DuWItt rulkcd something like a
million and ahalf dollars peddling
s varied collection of sthlctes ln
27 big deals In the lean and hungry
days belore Bill Vceck moved into
Sportsman's Park.
He sold Sad Bam Zolduk to Uie
Indians for 8100,000 and Southpaw
Dill Kennedy, among other things.
Jimmy Dykes later described Zol
dak as the only pitcher he ever
saw who fell asleep between pitch
es. DeWltt dealt Ihe Yankees a lemon
ln Fred Saniord and a journeyman
catcher, Roy Partee, for 8100.000
and Dick Btarr, Red Embree and
Sherman Lollar, now a star with
tho While Sox. He nicked Uie poor,
old Athletics for a similar figure
and four hired hands for Bob Dll
linger snd Psul Lehner.
The transaction Irom which De
Wltt derived Uie greatest ssllstsc
Hon, however, sent Ocorge SUrn
wclss and Merle Combs to Uie In
sisiu lor 836.000 snd Freddie
Marsh. The latter went to Uie White
Sox for $28,000, so De Will figures
he collected too, ooo for stlrnwelss,
when he was on his last legs.
In a period of 23 days, starting
Nov. 17, 1047, DeWltt banked a
hall million dollars and 13 players
In exchange for eight. Vern Steph
ens, Ellis Kinder, Jack Kramer
and Billy Hitchcock went to Uie
Red Box; Bob Munorlef. Walter
Judnich and Johnny Berardlno to
Uie Indians, the latter for $75,000;
and Jeff Heath to the Brnves.
On May 6, 1840, Uie Bosox fancied
Al Zarllla to the extent of $125,000
and sun fipence. That winter. Jer
ry Prlddy waa pawned off to Uie
Tigers lor $100,000 and Lou Kret
low. "
DeWltt hardly got the worst of
It. June 15, 1050. when Uie 8t. Louis
Americans were psld $50,000 and
given Dusne Plllette. Don Johnson
and Jim Dels leg, sUll very active
In the league, and snuffy Stlrn
welss for Tom Ferrick and Joe Os
trowskl and Third Baseman Leo
Thomas.
Lex Moss wss acquired by the
Bosox. Msy 17. 1851, for 3100.000
and Pitcher Jim McDonald, now
with the Yankees,. Catcher Matt
Baits and Pitcher Jim Sucheckl. A
lew days later, Uie White Sox took
Don Lenhamt for $79,000 and Paul
Lehner and Kermlt Wahl.
DcWltt reveals that the Indians
once offered the Little Brownies
Al Rosen, while last year's most
valuable player was In Triple A,
and Pitcher Dick Rosek for Bob
DUlinger and Ned Onrver.
"The money wasn't right, ao
there was no deal," he recalls.
DeWltt not only got the money,
but players to sell bsck.
BUI DeWltt doesn't know what to
do with himself now that he Is with
a club that can afford to keep su
perior players. i
Toski Still
Holds Lead
BALTIMORE L41 Tinv Bob
Toski, still getting more bounce
to the ounce, swung into the third
round of Uie $20,000 Eastern Open
todsy leading his nearest rlvnl by
three strokes and Uie rest of the
golfing pack by seven.
The o-foot-8 swinger from Liv
ingston, N. J., yesterday added a
3-undcr-par 89 to his opening round
88 for a 135 total, a record at the
halfway mark. The old 38-hold rec
ord of 137 was set by Clayton
Henfner In 1950 and Is shared by
uiree ouiers.
All alone at 138 was Jim Tur-
day's best performer wlUi a 08

beat par 73 for the second straight
day over the rugged Mt. Pleasant
municipal course.
Four strokes behind Turness
came George Fasio of Pine Valley,

Making A Name
By EDWIN N. JOHNSON
SEATTLE Johnny Ouentber,
blond freckle-faced and only 18,
has been making quite a name for
himself ln Faclfio Northwest bowl
ing circles.
The shy West Seattle high
school graduate got Interested In
bowling wnen ne tooc joo
pin setter in his neighborhood
bowling alley ln 1951. Since
then his well controlled curve ball
has been steadily building up
laurels. ,
Johnny started in the Junior
league here and built his average
up to 192. He developed so fast he
was drafted Into major league
competition this season and now
rolls with the Full-Play team in
Seattle's two top leagues.
The youngster raised many an
old timer's eyebrow last February
when he rolled an 80S series
the highest mark ever to be set
In Pacific Northwest league play.
He had scores of 233, 287 ana
290 In bettering the 801 mark set
several years ago by Pete Oatta-
ninl, veteran SeatUe bowler.
Johnny's miss in the 290 game
came as he missed the 10 pin in
the first frame. He spared oa his
second roll and then struck out.
Earlier.- Johnny matte oownng
news when he rolled a 299 ln an
exhibition game here.
He was Initiated into tne "too
Club" by Gattanlnl after the
phenomenal 809 series. And Im
mediately after the initiation,
young Ouenther scored a 739
total his first over the 700 mark
sside from the 809.
The pressure of rolling in the na
tional American Bowling Congress
tourney here put its marc on
Johnny's scoring, however. He
rolled a 594 (209 198-1871 in his
singles series, 575 (210-178-1871 in

his doubles snd slipped to 588 (218-
208-144) in the tesm event April
21.
. But as Joe Raiore, local bowling
alley owner, puts II:
"There's no mistaking it. The
kid a got It. He a a good bowler.
All he needs is a little more
seasoning."
And as far as Johnny Is con
cerned, he 11 get that seesonln;. He
pians io continue cowling as
often as he can. He figures maybe
ne u even center his career
around bowling, either in the alley
business or in something closely re
lated.
Right now, though, he's Just
concentrating on his game and
waiting to decide on his future
until after he 'gets "greetings"
from his draft board.
If you want to shove sentiment
aside, the St. Louis Cardinals
seem Justified in dealing away
Enos Slaughter. Since young Wal
ly Moon has been in Uie lineup,
he has stayed around the .350
mark, Baltimore's new scoreboard
is valued at $172,000. Cleveland
General Manager Hank Greenberg
wants every American League club
to play a home-and-home series
with every National League club
during the regular season, the re
sults to count in the standings.
He'U make the proposal at the
major league meeting before the
All-Star Game.

Hardtop racing wilt again take
the spotlight at Gem Speedway to
morrow afternoon starting with
time trials at 1:30 and the racing
program to follow at 3:18.
This, the second program or the
season, will probably be a much
better show than the first one last
Sunday, which proved to be worked
out with the trial and error method.
During the past week, Track
Manager Sam Nealln has made a
ccuple of changea that will possibly
make the future racing programs
work for the betterment of hard
top racing ln Klamath Falls.
Due to the fact that a couple of
fhe officials that worked last week
end's race can not make future
Bunday programs, a complete new
orew of officials have been selec
ted to replace the orew that were
originally hired for the season.
The same officials that worked
