Musial Ruins
Young Cub's
No-No Effort
CHICAGO (API "He hit my
beet pitch, it was no lollipop.
With that, young Glen Hobble of
the Chicago Cubs managed one of
those far-away smiles. The kind
that indicates what might have
been if . . .
Hobbie, who'll be 23 Friday,
pitched a one-hit, 1-0 victory over
St. Louis Tuesday in wind-blown,
frozen Wngley Field.
He had a perfect game until
there was one out rn the seventh.
But up stepped Stan (The Spoiler)
Musial. A moment later, Hobbie's
no-hitter was no more. Musial
sla'mmed an outside curve past
third base and into left field for
a double.
Hobbie was still faced with the
task of winning the game when
Musial came up in the ninth.
There were men on first and sec
ond on a walk and a hit batsman
with two out.
Cub Manager Bob Scheffing
went to the mound. So did catcher
Sam Taylor who had driven in the
only run with a single in the sec
ond inning.
After a few gestures, bchelting
went back to the dugout. Taylor
went back to catch. Hobbie pitched,
Musial swung on a fast ball and
bounced to the pitcher to end the
game.
Had Scheffing told Hobbie how
to pitch to Musial?
"Heck no," said the Cub man
ager. "I've been in this league for
17 years and still don't know how
to pitch to Musial. I just wanted
to make sure Glen wasn't mad at
himself."
As for Musial, who is experienc
ing a not unusual early season
slump, it was the second time in
the last three games that he had
saved the Cardinals from becom
ing no-hit victims.
Against San Francisco last Sat
urday he came off the bench in
the seventh to hit a pinch single
and spoil Jack Sanford s bid for a
no-hittcr.
Did Musial have any feelings
about breaking up two no-hitters
within a few days?
."No," said the great veteran in
a matter-of-fact tone. "A lot can
happen in the last two innings
gle in the sixth and then scored
himself as rightfielder Phil Sword
blasted a double. Sword also col
lected a single and a sacrifice in
five trips, accounting for two
RBIs. Maurer notched one RBI
and Speeiman. who hit two for
three, added the other.
The Owls, blanked in the first
three Irames, counted one in the
fourth off a single by Ehrman
trout scoring Cox, then failed to
mark the board until the eighth
Cox started the Owl comeback with
a single, left fielder Stan Glass
walked, as did Ehrmantrout. Cox
and Glass scored when Winters
got his first hit off the slants of
D Olivo.
Despite the fact that the Raid
ers garnered a hit in each of tAe
last three stanzas and were grant
ed three walks they couldn't bunch
the action to count a run
The next test for the Owls comes
on the weekend when they host the
OCE Wolves at Gem in a -single
test Friday afternoon followed by
a twmbill on Saturday. All three
games count in Oregon Collegiate
conference standing!
The East defeated the West.

game in 1958.

Demand Of Bums
LOS ANGELES (UPII Outfield
er Carl Furillo, one of the players
most closely identified with past
Dodger glory, demanded today he
be allowed to play more regularly
or be traded to another club.
"I'm no good to the team on the
bench or to myself, said Furillo.

13 major league seasons. He hit
.290 last year and led the club in

appeared in only five games this
year.

Frank Lane does a lot of shout
ing for the Cleveland Indians but
even he s drowned out by the
thunder of the Tribe's booming
offense.
And you'll have to excuse Man
ager Joe Gordon, the ex-Yankee
great, if he's confused because
nobody told him his Indians would
remind him of the old "Murderer's
Row" teams for which he played.
For that's exactly what they're
doing with seven victories in eight
(,ames and a whopping average
of 6.6 runs scored per game.
Redskins 14, Tigers 1
The Indians piled up their big
gest score of the season Tuesday
ght when they crusne me De

for his second straight win.
