school Class AA scoring record of
150 points. \
Billy, once clocked at 9.9 seconds
in a high school 100 yard dash,
won the University intramural
100 yard dash and broad jump the |
last two years. ‘
A left-handed hatter, righthand
ed thrower, Billy is 21 years old,
weighs 170 and stands 5-11. He

Blonde’s Kiss Jinx
For “Stock” Driver
ATLANTA, Ga., June I.—Peroxide or natural, kissable
or unkissable—blondes can be dangerous.
And if any athletically minded male is doubtful about
it, all he has to do is look up the record of one Glen “Fire
ball” Roberts from Tampa, Fla.
Roberts, one of the first en-| —————————e
trants in> the' 100-mile modified
stock-car championship grind here
at Lakewood Park on Sunday,
June 11, was rolling along in fine
style last year, without a single ac
cident to mar his outlook on life
—until a blonde crossed his path.
In fact, he hadn’t been in a race
track mishap since 1946.
It was in-June of 1949 at a North
Carolina track that Roberts met
his blonde. She was the one who
planted lipstick on his face as he
caught the checkered flag in a
heatrace. The next-time out the
same day, it was Roberts who did
the planting—he crashed through‘
the fence and encircled a tree with ‘
his mount.
But as far as the poplar Florida
driver was concerned, it was a flat
tire and not the blonde that caused
the accident. So in his next ap
pearance at that track, he and his
platinum - headed acquaintance
were on even friendlier terms—
she kissed him before the start of
the first heat.
This inspired Roberts even more
than her first buss. He didn’t
bother crashing the wall; he mere
ly flipped on the third corner and
somersaulted through the air,
clearing the obstacle by at least
four feet,
i . Did this phase him? Not at all.
He and the girl were together
again for a third appearance and,
just possibly, a third kiss. Whether
it was_the third or not, Roberts
has plenty of time to think it over
for he spent the next two months
in a hospital with a broken leg.
Accidents or no accidents, he’ll
be at Lakewood on June 11, trying
to bag the biggest modified purse
offered this season. The blonde?
She’ll remain in North Carolina.

US Open Play
Too Slow,
fficial
Says Officia
By GAYLE TALBOT
NEW YORK, June 1 — (AP) =
Plagued by increasing slowness of
play, the U. S. Golf Association is
in a state of mind to do something
pretty drastic about the problem
of the National Open Champion«
ship at Merion next week,
There might be a summary dis
qualification or two, or at least
some painful stroke penalties, un
less the boys quit doing a “eivil
engineering” job on each shot,
warns Joe Dey, eexcutive secre
tary of the ruling body.
“The time has come when we
simply must act if the game is not
to be seriously injured,” he de
clared today.
“We've already been forced to
cut our starting field from 171 to
162 out of a total original entry
list of 1400. That means that be
cause of slow play by some of the
fellows there are nine potential
champions in the country who will
not get to play at all.”
i Shows Figures
He presented, between shudders,
some figures he compiled during
last year’s open at Chicago.
“The first group of three play
ers on the opening round took
three hours and 27 minutes to
play the 18, he said. “The last
group on the same day needed
four hours and 16 minutes for the
round. In the second day the last
group struggled around in four
hours and 21 minutes.
“That is just awful, and it
doesn’t make sense. It hasn't been
so long since three hours was con
sidered adequate for a round. This
is murder on the spectators as well
as on players who wish to play at
a reasonable speed,
Dey recalled that two players
who were late teeing off at last
year’s open were penalized two
strokes before they ever hit a ball.
YOU TELL 'EM
MR. & MRS. CITIZEN of ATHENS
Tell your Mayor and Council that you DO want bus service in
Athens. You may not personally be a regular patron — but you
cannot escape having friends, employees or children who depend
on regular scheduled bus transportation as part of their daily lives.

nearby bus routes. :
Our drivers are well trained and experienced and are good SOLID
citizens — Our BUSES are modern, attractive and well kept—wa
have you Protected with adequate insurance—we carry you di
rectly to and from your desfinafion—-AND REMEMBER — we
give you the longest ride in town for .07 V¢!
Do YOUR part to assure that Athens will alwafi have a modern
and efficient bus system—lNSlST that your Mayor and Council
take decisive action on June 6th. by eliminating the 15¢ Jitney and
having meters installed in the taxicabs, thereby placing them in
the taxicab business and allowing us to continue to operate your
bus transportation system.

Memo to Brooklyn—Beware the St. Louis Cards.
Cheeks still burn on the Cardinal bench at the memory!
of the May 18 horrors of Ebbets Field. That was the day
St. Louis blew an 8-0 lead and lost to the Dodgers, 9-8.
Strong men still blanch at the
thought of Tommy Glaviano’s
three successive errors in the
ninth inning. Glaviano and Mana
ger Eddie Dyer never will forget it.
The experts wrote the Cards’
obit the next day. They said it
was the end of St. Louis as a pen
nant threat in 1950. Brooklyn had
landed a knockout blow at St.
Louis morale. They never would
bounce back.
Next time the Cards played a
game they rallied with six in the
eighth inning to knock out Warren
Spahn and whip Boston. The next
victim was the Phillie Robin
Roberts.
And so on down the line. Since
the black day in Flatbush they
have won nine of 11, hotter than
any club in the league. They left
Brooklyn tied for third, three
games out of first. Now they’re
second, one game behind Brook
lyn.
Tonight is the night. The chance
to get even. They open a three
game series with the Dodgers at
Sportsman’s Park. Don’t say the
Dodgers weren’t warned. Old Car
dinals don’t forget.
This second western swing of
the Brooks can be important. By
whipping St. Louis three straight
at Brooklyn they turned back the
Card threat for the moment. By
sweeping the holiday doublehead
er from the Phillies, they repelled
another threat. If they can get out
of St. Louis with their lead intact,
they may be able to pull away
and take command.
' The trip is important for Leo
Durocher’s New York Giants, too,
in a different sort of way. The
Polo grounds wolves are howling
for Leo’s scalp although his con
tact runs through 1951. Going into
tonight’s two-night doubleheader
at Cincinnati, the Giants are run
ning a dreary seventh, nine games
off the pace.
Chicago, still two games over
the .500 mark is first stop for the
deflated Phillies who were knock
ed from first to third Tuesday.
After Chicago, the Phils bump
smack into St. Louis for three im
portant games.
Boston finds Piitsburgh reeling
under an eight-game losing streak.
Ralph Kiner's home run produc
tion slowed down to a walk with
only one in the past 10 days. If
the braves are to move in the race,
now is their time with Sid Gordon
back in the lineup.
American League box scores
will be studied for the next few
days to find the effects of the big
Chicago-Washington deal.
The White Sox move into the
white glare of the Yankee Sta
dium spotlights for a night game
with New York which has won 17
of its last 20. After cooling off
Boston with a decoration . day
sweep, Casey Stengel is’ in fine
shape to open a longstand against
the west.
Washington wiil parade its new
stock — second baseman Cass
Michaels, outfeilder Jehnny Os
trowski and pitcher Bob Kuzava
before the home folks. I
Both leagues had an open date
yvesterday.
Cincinnati Coach Gus Mancuso
holds the record for most chances
accepted by a catcher in one
World Series—l 6 in 1936 for the
New York Giants.
Jimmy Bloodworth, now with the
Phils, played in 92 games at sec
ond, 23 at first and eight at third
for Cincinnati last season.

Chattanooga
Gets QQuinn,
Bonus Beauty
By GEORGE McARTHUR ||
Associated Press Sports Writer '
Chattanooga is awaiting the ar«
rival today of onetime bonus boy
Frank Quinn, a righthander once
worth sso,ooo—a price the entire
team of Lookouts probably
wouldn't bring with their presens
standing.
The Lookouts are hoping Quinn
might ease them from the seventh
place they find themselves in.
They were picked for last and
might have made i¢ by new had
not Little Rock showm such talent
in that department. e
Quinn, a Yale alumnus, might
also add some grammatical -polish
to Bobo Newsom, who is scheduled
to pitch tonight aguinst Mobile.
suinn got his bonus price from
the Boston Red Sox when he
graduated from Yale in 1848. The
23-year-old hurler was sent to
Birmingham where he ecompiled
a 5-2 record.
Last year the “Old Blue” pitched
in 11 relief assignments for Boston
but received no decisions and this
year the Washington Senators
picked him up for the waiver price
and optioned him to Chattanooga.
He is expected to arrive today as
Chattanooga plays host to the Mo~
bile Bears.
The Bears were dropped into
fifth place last night when Mem
phis defeated them 8-2 in the
Southern Association’s only game,
Elsewhere in the loop tonight is
Atlanta at Little Rock, Birming
ham at Memphis, and New Orleans
at Nashville,
The Crackers will put Harry
McPherson on the mound to pro
tect their leeague lead. So far this
year he has a 4-2 record. Facing
‘him will be the Rocks’ old reliable
Lombardo with a 3-7 record for
the last place Travellers.
The New Orleans Pelicans will
run into a touching ceremony at
Nashville. The Vols intend to hoist
the pennant they won last season
and were picked to win again.
Pitching for the sixth place Vols
will be Umberto Flamini (2-3)
against New Orleans’ Harry Fisher,
a hurler who has made most of
his appearances this season as a
} sinch hitter.
Memphis has Marvin Rotblatt
with a 6-2 record scheduled to hurl
against Birmingham’s Leo Kiely
with a 5-4 record for the year.
The Memphis victory over Mo~
bile last night eame on just the
one run margin the Chicks picked
’up when outfielder Bill Higdon
stretched & bunt into a round trip
in the third inning.
Mobile third baseman Walt Rog
ers scooped up the bunt and fired
it over the head of Lou Ruchser
at first. Ruchser finally regained
the ball and shot it to shortstop
Fred Postolese who let it get by
him. By the time the infield hoop
la was over, Higdon was home
free.
Snow is white because light
striking it is diffused by the tiny
crystals composing it.
