Charles Defeats
Beshore In 14th .
BUFFALO, N. Y, Aug. 16 —
(AP)—Joe Louis’ stock rose sharp
ly today following Ezzard Charles’
one-sided lacklustre conquest of
Freddie Beshore.
A “new” Charles was supposed
to be unveiled in Memorial Audi
toriuny last night but it was the
same old cautious Ezzy in action.
The NBA Heavyweight Champion,
who made good in his third title
defense by stopping Beshiore in
2:53 of the 14th frame, certainly
wasn’t a “tiger.”
The comebacking Brown Bom
ber and Charles are tentatively
scheduled to have it out in Yankee
Stadium, Sept. 27.
Louis already has started pre
liminary training. Charles, who
suffered’a slight cut over his right
eye last night, said he will be
ready to resume work again in a
couple of weeks. k .
¢ ‘And I'm ready for Louis, too,”
said Charles,

Hancock’s Hit
Beats Optimist
Pee Wee Hancock's blue darter over second base with
the sacks loaded gave Oconee Street an 8-7 victory over
the Optimist Club last night at Legion Park, and enabled
the Methodist to get a firmer grip on first place in the
Municipal Red League.
The Optimist, with Dick Saye
on the mound after a two-week
honeymoon trip, scored four runs
in the top of the seventh to go
ahead, 7-6. After retiring the first
batter in the bottom of the seventh,
Homer Patterson, Saye gave up a
single to Leroy Bray to begin his
trouble. .
It finally got around to Han
cock, who stood at the plate with
two away (Harnk Condon hit a
ground ball to Jack Ray at short
that forced Brav at the plate for
the second out), and the bases
loaded, Condon was at first, Bools
Tudor at sccond and Baebby Davis
at third. The court was 3-2 on
Pee Wee, and he l:ced a liner
over second that scored Davis, to
tie it up, and Tudor to win it, 8-7.
Hancock collected three for four
in the game, including two dou
bles.
Oconee and Prince Avenue tan
gle tonight in a single game. The
Baptists will end regular play with
this evening=s tilt, but Oconee has
two left, with a make-up game
with Optimists scheduled for Fri
day night.
Tomorrow night, University
Profs face the Ontimist in the
first game, and Athens Manufact
uring Company and Post Office
meet in the nightcap.

they are hardly loved, despite

Mike protested a line-up-writing

Atlanta’s triumph over the fifth

heartbreaker for New Orleans’
bonus pitcher Paul Pettit. He
posted his best showing since en
tering professional baseball, de
spite the defeai.
The SIOO,OOO rookie went ten in
nings and allowed eight hits. In
addition, he pitched himself out of
trouble’ in several spots. :
Atlanta newcomer Charlie Gorin
won the game with a nine hit per
formance and some brilliant
catches by the Crackers.
Birmingham got its victory over
Mobile in the frirst inning when
the Bears’ starter John Hall dem
onstrated a marked tendency to
miss the plate. He walked the first
four men up and allowed Norm

a single. ' Hall didn’t get a single

Groth’s Homer
St Indi
By JOE REICHLER
Associated Press Sports Writer
A difference of $5,000 once kept Johnny Groth from
wearing a Cleveland uniform. Today the Indians would
pay that sum many times over just to get him out of theiyp
hair,
Since joining the Detroit Tigers
two years ago, Groth has made a
career- out of belting Cleveland
pitching. If the first place Tigers
beat the Indians to the wire it
can be ‘directly traced to Groth’s
batting feats against the club that
once spurned him. :
It wasn’t Groth’s fault that the
Tigers got no better than an even
break in their two games with
the Tribe.-The young outfielder
slammed a home run in each game.
His circuit clout yesterday came
with the bases loaded. The Tigers
didn’t need any more to defeat
Bob Lemon and the Indians, 4-1.
Bob Feller, a teammate of
Groth’s at Great Lakes during the
war, had brought Groth back with
him for a tryout. Cleveland big
wigs liked what they saw. Groth
was offered a $25,000 contract.
Just as he was about to sign,
Groth’s father reminded the boy
he had previously promised the
Detroit club a chance to match
any offer. The Tigers offered $30,-
000, so Groth signed with Detroit.
Groth’s grand slammer was all
Art Houtteman n<eded to gain his
15th victory.
The New York Yankees split a
doubleheader with Washington to
move two percentage points in
front of Cleveland in their race
for second place. Washington won
the opener, 10-5. The Yankees
took the second.
Boston’s Red Sox moved within
seven games of the top, taking two
from the Philadelphia Athletics,
8-3 and 9-4.
Philadelphia increased its Na
tional League lead over Boston to
six games, defeating the Braves,
9-1. Brooklyn climbed to within
three percentage points of Boston
with a 1-0 triumph over the New
York Giants. Chicago’s Cubs tallied
twice in the eighth inning to
dump the St. Louis Cards, 3-2.
Pittsburgh rallied for six runs in
the ninth to match Cincinnati’'s to
tal in the top of the inning and
