. BY FRANK ECK \

Hugh Casey of the Brokolyn Dodgers says it's tougher to be a
relief pitcher than a startcr.

pitcher,” says the National League’s No, | firemun, “He needs con
trol and good stuff.

Johimy Murphy and Joe Page.

Casey's biggest thrill was his
brilliant hurling in the 1947
World’s Series.
“I pitched in six games, all
but the second one, and finished
in all six I worked,” says
Hughie. “I got credit for two
victories to balance my two
fosses in the 1941 Series.
“Those two wins were my big
thrills. As a matter of fact I went
10 and two-thirds innings and
walked only Tommy Henrich on
six pitches in the third game. You

BY JOE REICHLER
Associated Press Sports Writer
The pace-setting Cleveland Indians may not win the
American League peunnant, but they are virtually a shoo
in to cop the attendance prize this year.
~ In fact, only an unexpected
slump at the gate in the final two
months will prevent Bill Veek's
oub from breaking the season
attendance record of 2,265,512 set
by the New York Yankees in
1946,
Yesterdays turnout of 73,484
which watched the Indians sweep
& doubleheader from the Yankees,
8-6 and 2-1, increased the tribe’s
total' of 1,718,387 fans for 50

remaining 27 home games are
700,000 for an overall total of
nearly two and a half milion.
Ahead COf A’s
The doulde victory enabled the
Indizns to take an .006 percentage
point lead over the Philadelphia
Athletics, who defeated the St.
Louis Browns, 7-5, in a single
game. The teams are tied for first
place in games won and lost, but
the Indians have played six few

In Josing, the third place
yankees slipped to two full games.
In losing the third place

Red Sox won the opener 8-1, but
lost the second, 2-1, in 11 innings.
In the other American League

DANES FORBIDDEN TO
WED REFUGEES
COPENHAGEN—(AP)— More
than 1,000 Danes want to marry
German refugees who have been
interned in Denmark since the
liberation, but not a single per
mit to marry a German has been
given, a spokesman for the min
istry of Justice said. Several
Danish soldiers, with the Danish
brigade in Germany, have mar
ried German girls. Nobody can
forbid that—but they will never
be able to get their wives with
themy- back to Denmark. They
will not be given entry permit.
- The spokesman said that the
strict rules forbidding entry of
‘wives of brigade soldiers are
necessitated by the refugee prob
lem. “We cannot pres><wy Al
lied authorities to help us get rid
of the German refugees in Den
mark and simultaneously allow
'‘German women to settle in Den
mark as wives of Danish citi
zens,” he said.

Takes Pair
From Atlanta
!
By The Associated Press
Nashville’s Vols gained a half
game on the first place Memphis
i Chicks yesterday by grabbing both
ends of a Southern Association
doubleheaders from the Atlanta
Crackers, 9-6 and 6-5. '
Memphis defeated third place
Mobile 7 to 6 but the second game
was called at the end of the fifth
linning because of darkness with
the score tied at 1-1.
Birmingham and Chattanooga
divided a pair. The Barons won
the first 14 to 0 and Chattanooga
took the second, 3-2. The New
Orleans-Little Rock double-head
er was rained out. |
Once again it was a case of the
Crackers being unable to maintain
a lead. Atlanta jumped out in front
6-0 in the first three frames of the
opener but Nashville scored four
in the last of third and drove
{ Shelby Kinney to the showers.
l Vol catcher Forrest Burgess
greeted Carl Lindguist, Kennedy's
irelief, with a homer, scoring two
runs and tieing the score. It was
Burgess’ sixteenth round-tripper
of the year.
Pitcher Triples
Nashville relief pitcher Pete
Mallory won his own game in the
fourth with a triple that drove in
| two runs.
‘ Norman Brown, who started the
Inightcap for the Crackers, was
vanked in the fifth after issuing
three walks. The Crackers held a
5-0 lead wuntil the sixth when
Nashville scored six runs for the
victory.
Memphis scored the winning run
of the first game in the {final
frame.
In the nightcap the Chicks scor
ed their run on three singles in
| the second. Mobile’s score came as
‘the result of a double steal in the
fifth.
Mike Palm fashioned a seven
hitter and pitched Birmingham to
a shutout in the first game but
fi(.‘hattanooga's Ramon Garcia set
”the Barons down with three hits
''in the second.
The Barons’ Mickey Rutner and
Walt Dropo each collected five
| hits in six trips to the plate in the
| opener, during which Birmingham
- lconnected for 23 safeties.
Bell’s Meets
Choke’s In
Double - Bill
Tonight’s schedule at Legion
Softball Park may well decide
the winner of the second half of
the City League. Choke’s Clean
ers, although resting in third
place in standings and not con
ceded much chance of winning
the race, will be in prime posi
tion to knock off one of the lead
ers.
Bell's Food Market, leading
the pack by a half game, have
been named to play Choke’s in
one game of a double-header. If
Bell’s wins, the League cham
pionship will be practically
clinched, because the Grocers
have only two other games be
sides the Choke game and both
are rated ‘sure wins.” But if
Choke’s wins tonight’s fray, it
will be » new rare,
Possible Deadlock
A Chuke win will deadlocil
Bell’s and Georgia Power for the
lead, with each team having only
two more games to play. Play of
the remainder of the schedule
may be cancelled after tonight’s
game, it has been* decided, be
cause the winner will have been
determined anyway. Playoff for
the League title will begin as
soon as possible. ‘
- The Delco “Gals,” Athens girls’
softball team, will be featured
in the first game of the twin
bill, at 7:15, meeting an un
named opponent. Their game is
scheduled to go only five frames,
in order that the championship
game may be begun at 8:00
