BY CURTIS DRISKELL
Cecil Wilkes and John Henry Bridges wielded big bats
for Bell’s Food Market when batwork was of prime im
portance last night, combining their efforts to give Bell’s
a 4-2 verdict over a game bunch of Ag Hill boys in the
opening night’s play of the City Softball League.
Wilkes smashed out two power
ful home runs in three times at
bat, and Bridges blasted another
round-tripper with one mate on
the bases to account for all the
Bell runs. Aubrey Simmons’ bril
lant three-hit hurling perfor
mance kept the Ag Hill nine in
check until the fifth inning, when
Simmons’ perfect game, shut-out,
and no-hitter all flew out the win
dow.
Bedgood Lumber Company
opened the night's play with a
5-1 count over Athens Manufact
uring Company, as “Corky” Bar
ton pitched four-hit ball. Six
errors by Manufacturing players
hurt James Fitzpatrick’s good
pitching job, but he gave up only
seven hits in his ioss, not walking
a man. .
Threlkeld Gets Two
Billy Threlkeld sparked the
Athens Manufacturing boys at the
plate, collecting two - singles in
three trips. No Bedgood player
got more than one hit. “Jit” Har
vil’s ringing double with one
man aboard started the scoring
for Bedgood, and a three-hit,
three-run sixth inning iced the
game for the Lumber team.
Simmons pitched four innings
of perfect ball in the feature game
of the night, fanning 10 of the 12
men to face him and not allow
ing a man to reach first. He fan
ned the first man to face him in
the fifth, but then hit Kirk Price,
was touched for a hit by Bill
Hite, and had two runs come
across on an infield out and
Dempsey Wood’s single.
Wilkes Starts Things
Wilkes had started things for
Bell’s in the fourth frame by rid
ing Charlie Hartman’s first pitch
over the centerfield barrier for
a home run. In the fifth inning,
James Browning banged out a
clean single when ‘two were out
and John Henry Bridges parked
the ball in home run territory to
put Bell’s one run ahead. Wilkes
found another to his liking and
lofted the ball onto the rightfield
bank for his second four-master.
For all practical purposes, that
was the ball game. |
Simmons fanned 12 and didn’t
walk a man, while Hartman
struck out six and issued only one
pass in the tight hurling duel.

TOP RIGHTHANDERS
Raschi, Trucks
Win 7th Victories
BY JACK HAND
Associated Press Sports Writer
Who'’s the No. 1 righthander of the American League,
now that Bobby Feller has started to slip?
Vic Raschi, strong-armed New York Yankee ace, and
Virgil Trucks, Detroit speedster, look like the leading
candidates.
Feller isn’t finished. He show
ed enough last night in losing a
3-1 decision to Boston to prove
that. But even Bobby admits he’s
not as good as he used to be.
Raschi put in a solid claim
with his three-hit shutout of the
Chicago White Sox last night,
3-0. It was his seventh victory to
one loss. Trucks survived a
shaky start to subdue the Phila
delphia A’s in 10 innings, 5-4,
for his seventh triumph. He has
been beaten twice.
The brilliant job on the White
Sox was Raschi’s third shutout
of the season, more than any
other pitcher in the league.
Tommy Henrich’s 10th homer
broke up a 0-0 duel between
Raschi and Howie Judson in the
seventh.
Trucks started out like the
worst pitcher in the league,
walking the first three Athletics.
Then he hit Hank Majeski to
force in a run. Taft Wright's two
run single gave Coleman a three
run working margin. but he
couldn’t hold it.
