Athletics drew all last season.
But there was a decided change
In the fans' tone yesterday. When
they moved to Baltimore Irom St.
Louis the players were cheered
at everv turn regardless of what
thev did. Balls and strikes were
greeted with roars reserved for
nome runs in otner oig league
cities.
Opposing teams, in turn, were
booed soundly.
It was dlllercnt yesterday. Fans
started booing Manager Jimmy
Dykes when he maae nis appear
ance to give the umpires nis start
ing llneun. It went on and grew
as the team lost a double-header
7-1 and 7-3 to, of all teams, the
neighboring Washington Senators,
For a change, even the Senator
Ditcher was given a hand when
he came to bat in the late Innings.

Indians, safely past one more fi
nancial crisis, are set for their
toughest playing assignment.
After winning six of seven games
against Edmonton and Calgary,
the Indians visit Vancouver Mon
day night lor their first 1954 test
of Ihe league-leading Capilanos.
The Indians, who have played
like potential pennant - winners
since league directors took away
their franchise and assumed oper
ation of Uie club eight days ago.
rang up their sixth straight vic
tory with Sunday's 81 win over
Calgary in the first game of a
doubleheadcr. Calgary took the
second game 17-8. but Uie Indians
were still In third place, 4 ' j
games behind the Capilanos. as
they left for tho Uirce-game stand
at Vancouver.
The latest financial . crisis for
the Indians, who arc playing only
road games while a Spokane civic
committee works to raise some
$40,000 needed to acquire the Iran.
chise, came just before the Sun
day doubleheadcr at Calgary.
Manager Don Osborn sent word
that if tickets for the train trip
to Vancouver were not In Calgary
by noon, he would have to "pull
the players out." With an assist
irom Vancouver, uie tickets ar
rived on time, and in Spokane, the
Athletic Round Table, a sports
club, rounded up $450 to send to
ine players tor expenses.
The Spokane-v ancouver scries
originally was set for Spokane but
was shifted to Vancouver when
league directors last week gave
the Spokane committee an extra
week for a fund drive.

10-7 and 12-4; Edmonton won 2-1
over Lewlston and lost 7-2; and
Salem beat Wcnatcheo twice 8-7,
in 10 Innings, and 4-1. Vancouver
and Victoria had an open date.
Bud Class pitched four-hit ball
for Spokane as the Indians posted
their sixth consecutive win in the
first game at Calgary. The night
cap was a nightmare for the In
dians as the SUmpeders gained
revenge for earlier trounclngs.
Three Spokane pitchers gavo, up
31 hits, including six home runs.
Al Edmonton, John Conant lim
ited Lewlston to five hits in the
opener as he racked up his fifth

Baltusrol's narrow fairway and
tough rough offered Furgol little
trouble. His left arm, 10 Inches

ball true to the target with few

me out of the rough." Defending
champion Ben Hogan, seeking his
fifth title, ended five strokes off
the pace with a 289.
Furgol injured his left elbow at
the age of 12 when be fell off
parallel bars at Utlca, N.Y. The
injury never healed correcUy and
he was left with a crooked, cocked
arm. Acting on dcotors' orders, he
took up golf to strengthen the ana

However, not until ' he had
clinched the title, when Littler
failed to drop an eight-foot putt
in the 18th for a tie, did Furgol
;tart talking. Not once during the
three days did he engage in a con

tight-lipped man with a purpose,
"Oolf Is my work." he said, "and

me from a shot that might make
a difference. That is why I never
talked to anybody, not even my
