Phillies Continue “Hot” Pace With 5-3 Win Over Cards
Bulldog Football Squad Now Undergoing Rough Drills

g BY 808 OLIVER
Georgia's gridders are now going through the rough stuff in their
daily grind on the practice field—hard blocking, tackling and work
ing on the fineness of their attack.l
Last evening the Bulldogs had
i small rough session which saw
the squad still a little slow - but
;hstly whipping into shape.
© Little Richard Lee, swivel-hip
ped halfback from Americus, who’
who was one of the best reserve
backs on the squad last year, show
ed onlookers he will be even
ougher this year than he was as
v freshman last fall. This guy has
» biggest fighting heart on the
eld and he puts every ounce of it
in his running.
Dave Hart, who was in line for
first string tailback in ‘43 before
the Army grabbed . him, was
streaking the ends with the fast
pess of a jack-rabbit. Those wide
‘end runs seem to be his favorites.
At fullback, Ben TFordham,
vounger brother of the Bulldogs’
star fullback Jim Fordham back
in ’37-39, was doing himself up
a good job running with the ball.
Fullback Porter Payne
. Porter Payne, former star at
Pech High, has the power but
needs to get rid of a few more
pounds before he is at his best
at the fullback spot.
~_ln the line, Al Jefferies and Carl
Griffin are keeping a stcady pace
{ft guards, as is Johnson, tall lanky
linemen who secems to be making
good.
““Garland (Bulldog) Williams,
%{: rangy tackle who was a
arter on the Rose Bowl team. is
%ding it a little difficult getting
back on to the game after a four
year layoff, but he should hit top
form before too long a time,
- Gene Chandler, center and for
mer all-state pivot man at Tech
High back around ‘43, is progress
ing center, and should strengthen
the position no little next season.
e Rauch Vs. Cook
. John Rauch and Johnny Cook
the latter just getting discharged
from the Army Air Corps. are
battling it out at quarterback, but
at the present it looks as if Jarr'n
f:ohn Rauch, who played a steller
n man roll last season, has the
edge on the Rome (Ga.) Kid.
However, both .boys may play
about the same come fall.
The practice sessions start at
7:00 now, and lights are used to
ecarry out the instructions of Coach
Wally Butts, ¢ome sundown and
darkness.

Organized Baseball
Gives Spokane Club
A Big Helping Hand
SPOKANE, Wa:zh., June 26—
(AP) — Organized baseball
opened its heart today to help
leconstruct the Spokane Indians
baseball team, slashed to three
active players Monday night
waen a bus crash carried eight
to their deaths and injured sev
en other players and the driver.
Offers of players help came
net only from the B . league
Western Internaiional Civcuit
where Spokane was battling to
r'se from fifth place but from
major and minor leagues across
the nation.
The president of taoe Western
International league, Robert B.
Abel of Tacoma, was to arrive
in Spokane today to discuss in
volving an emergecy rule to te
cruit players from other clubs
and enable Spokane te finish its
scason. A
Owner Sam W. Collins. direc
ing the Indians for = the first
time this year, was too busy as
sisting relatives of victims to
pian a resumption of play-im
mediately. He was determined,
though, to finish the season be
cause ‘‘tae boys themselves
would want the game continued.”
Dodgers Offer Help
Colling was encouraged by a
wire from Branch Rickey, pres
ident of the Brooklyn Dodgers
in the National league, who
promised “every possible effort”
to send players and help find a
new manager if necessary.
President W, G. Bramham of
the National Association of min
or leagues also offered all help
pessible.
President Clarance Rowland of
the Pacific Coast league said in
Los Angeles he had urged coast
ltwams to option surplus players
to the Indians.
William H. Klepper, Portland’s
general manager. said the Beav
orse and all othe: coast clubs
would “lenq a hand” in recon
struction and Spokane’s Ooppo
nents in the Western Interna
tional Circut were reviewing
their *osters to decide what
piavers to lend the Indians.
When reorganization of the
team begins Colling will start
wita three wuninjured men—
vitchers Milt Cadinha and Joe
Faria who drove !o the coast in
a private automobile and escap
ad the crash and infielder Fred
Lanifero, optioned to Spokane
by San Diego just before the
tragedy.

Winning 18 of their last 24
games and moving from eighth
place to sixth, only one game out
of the first division, rates as a
grand performance for the club
that holds the record for finish
ing last. |
Nobody expects the Phillies to
maintain their current pace. But
their renaissance has caught the
fancy of the nation, much as the
fans “went for” the Dodgers in
1941 and the St. Louis Browns in
1944,
Philadelphia has taken the
Phils to heart and last night’s
5-3 decision over the St. Louis
Cardinals was the latest reason
for jubilation. The fans gave Del
Ennis a night and, contrary! to
the usual procedure, the home
town hero made good by driving
home three runs with two hits.
Reds Lick Bums, 15-3
The Cardinals had a chance ftc
pick up a game, for Brooklyn
had been battered by Cincinnati.
15-3, earlier in the day. John
Hetki scattered 10 Dodger hits
while Ray Mueller smashed two
homers and Ed Lukon -collected
five blowsq off an assortment of
Brooklyn throwers. Starter Les
Webber was the loser.
Pittsburgh staggered out of the
basement behind Nick Strince
vich, who scored a four-hit 3-0
whitewash of the New York
Giants, who now bring up the
rear in the National.
Chicago’s Cubs stopped Bos
ton’s five-game winning streak,
7-3.
Tex Hughson’s second straight
' shutout was the big news in the
American where Boston stretched
its lead to 7 1-2 games by blank
ing Detroit, 1-0, while New York
bowed to Cleveland’s Bobby Fel
ler, 8-3.
Hughson had a tough scrap
with Detroit's Freddy Hutchin
son, 'each pitcher allowed only
two hits. Hutchinson walked
four in a row after two wree out
in the eighth.
The Yankees feli before Feller
for the fourth time with Rapid
Robert fanning 13 to boost his
season strikeout total to 165 in
154 innings.
Bill Dietrich suffered a broken
finger when hit by a line drive
off Cecil Travis’ bat as Chicagc
downed Washington, 6-4, and
Sam Zoldak outpitched three
Athletic hurlers to give the St
Louis Browns a 7-2 night ver

BY HUGH FULLERTON, JR.
NEW YORK, June 26 —(AP)
-.When the baseball Yankees
cpened their 1946 season, they
had sold 500 boxes for tae sea
son—at very fancy prices. The
football Yankees already have
cold 400 boxes at $l4O each for
the season. and taken in $65.,000
in season ticket sales. . . That
dcesn’t prove (A) that the foot
ball Yanks will 2qual the base
bali Yanks at the gate or (B)
taat they’ll have inc same place
in the standings, but it isn’t bad
btusiness for a new club, either.
. .. Topeka’s Jim Reed isn’'t sur
prised that army recruiters have
frouble filling their quotas
these days. An Army sergeant
draws only S7B a month, plus
room and board, says Jim, and
any boy wita football talent can
do better than that at college.
HORSEHIDE SHORTAGE
| A Wisconsin rapids baseball
fan thought he was getting some
thing for nothing, opines L. H.
rAddington.. when he not only
watched a game from outside the
fence but picked up a stray foul
kall, jumped into his car and
headed home. . . But the fan
didn’t reckon with the shortage
of ‘baseballs. . . A cop assigned
{o the park chased him and
gent had to pay 42 costs—a to
tal of s9.3l—and, what’s worse,
he had to return tae ball.
SPORTS BEFORE IYOOUR EYES
Well, it's flour that thickens
