PITCHER RIDES IN
CLEVELAND, May 18—(AP)—
When one pitcher was driven out
of last night's Cleveland-Philadel~
phia baseball game here, another
was driven in—by jeep.
The free ride replaced the long
slow walk by relief hurlers from
the bullpens beyond the outfield
fences because General Manager
Hank Greenberg of the Tribe
wants to speed up games.

B'g D
Cards, 6-2
BY RALPH RODEN
Associated Press Sports Writer -
The pennant hopes of the
Brooklyn Dodgers are
brighter today. Big Don
Newcombe is back on the
beam. .
Newcombe once again looks
like the pitcher the experts said
would be a cinch to win 20 games
and the best bet to become the
first National League pitcher to
cop 30 since Dizzy Dean of the
1934 St. Louis Cardinals.
The husky negro righthander
stirred the hearts of Flatbush
last night as he pitched the
Dodgers to a 6-2 five hit victory
over the Cardinals,
Newcombe, who complained of
a sore arm as he was batted from
pillar to post in his three previous
starts, showed no trace of the ail
ment as he went the distance for
the first time this season.
The sophomore mainstay not
only choked off the Cards on
five hits but also fanned eight
and climaxed a game winning
four run eighth inning rally
with a two run single.
Newcombe’s victory was doubly
sweet to the Dodgers for the los
ing pitcher was chunky Max La
nier who owned a string of eight
straight victories over Brooklyn. -
The triumph enabled the
Dodgers to remain within a
game of the league-leading
Philadelphia Phils. The Phils
edged the Cincinnati Reds, 5-4,
in a night game at Philadelphia.
Willie Jones singled home Ed.
Waitkus, who had tripled, with
the winning run in the last of
the ninth, X s
The Pittsburgh Pirates turned
back the Braves, 4-1, in another
night game in Boston. The Pirates
snapped a 1-1 tie and drove Vern
Bickford out with a three run at
tack in the sixth inning.
Sheldon Jones pitched the
New York Giants to a 4-1 tri
umph over the Chicago Cubs in
the National’s only day game.
He was helped by an inside the
park home run in the first in
ning by Bob Thomson with one
on.
The New York Yankees outlast
ed the St. Louis Brown, 11-9, but
fell into a first place American
League tie with the Detroit Tig
ers. The Tigers, who began the
day two percentage points behind
the Yanks, knocked off the Boston
Red Sox, 6-3.
Entering the ninth squared at
8-8, the Yanks shoved three
runs home to win on three sin
. gles, two walks and a hit bats
man.
- At Detroit, Lefty Ted Gray out
pitched the veteran Ellis Kinder.
In stopping Beston for the second
time, Gray encountered difficulty
only with Walt Drope, sensational
rookie. Red Sox first baseman,
Dropo drove in all of Boston’s runs
on his seventh and eighth home
runs. :
The Tigers clinched the game
in the fourth when Dick Kry
hoski lashed a two-run inside
the park home run,
Ray Scarborough, ace Washing
ton righthander, pitched the Sen
ators to a 2-0 decision over the
Chicago White Sox. Scarborough
‘yielded six hits while the Sena
tors collected only three off Bob
Kuzava but the Senators made the
most of seven walks.
The Philadelphia Athletics
scored three runs in the ninth
inning to down the Indians, 7 to
5, in a game in Cleveland.
Approximately 100 American
track and field athletes will com
pete abroad this summer.
The national AAU track and
field championships will be held
in Washington, D. C. June 23-24,
The trading deadline for major
league teams is June 15. 4

Trojans End Season
With Tignall Today
BY CURTIS DRISKELL"
Banner-Herald Sports Writer
Tignall presents the last barrier for the Athens High
baseball team this afternoon in a game set for the Tignall
field at 4 o’clock. Athens must win the final contest to fin
ish the season over the .500 mark in wins and losses. i
Bryant (Zeb) -Hines is . the
choice to face the Tignall batsmen
from the mound today, although he
hurled two and two-third innings
yesterday in a relief role. = 1
. Covington handed the Trojans
their fourth loss yesterday at Co
vington, garnering only five hits
that were good enough for a 12-2
decision. The game was highlight
ed by a brief rhubarb in the fourth
inning and a grand-slam home run
by Covington’s Teddy Brown in
the same frame. .
The disputed decision came in
the fourth with Covington leading,
4-1. Starting pitcher Wallace Potts
had walked four straight Trojans,
forcing in one run, and the bases
were still loaded when Bill Saye
lifted a long fly ball to center
field on which Jerry Walker
failed to tag up completely before
coming home.
The discussion .on whether or
not the umpire coached the Cov
ington infield in the detection
ended with the decision that
he had merely asked the other um
pire about the illegality of the
‘play, and the Rams’ .infielders
overheard him. Play was halted
for some 10 minutes before Potts
.walked another man and then
fanned the third out.
' Covington’s Teddy Brown en
joyed a great day at the plate,
coming within one base of the
single - double - triple - homer per
formance. He slammed a double
in the second inning, a single in
the third, a home run so deep
center in the fourth, and another
double in the sixth. The Ram
clean-up man batted home six
