Over White Sox, 6-2
By JOE REICHLER
Associated Press Sports Writer
Dizzy Trout, the Hooser nobody wanted in 1949, is
keeping the Detroit Tigers on top in the chase for the
American League pennant.
Currently the-hottest pitcher in |
the loop, the 35-year-old right
hander boasts a 10-2 won and lost
record. A newly developed fork
ball has helped him.
Old Diz gained his 10th triumph
last night when he pitched and
batted the Tigers to a 6-2 victory
over the Chicago White Sox. It
was his sixth consecutive triumph.
It was an important victory for
the Tigers since Cleveland and
Boston each swept doubleheaders
and the New York Yankees de
feated Washington,
The Indians received excellent
pitching from Jesse Flores and
Mike Garcia as they defeated the
St. Louils Browns, 2-0 and 2-1.
The Red Sox pounded out 11-2
and 12-7 verdicts over the Phila~
delphia Athletics, The Yankees
won, 9-4,
Philadelphia’s runaway Phillies
Widened their National League
Margin to seven games over Bos
ton, setting back Vern Bickford
and the Braves. 5-1. The New York
Giants mauled the Brooklyn Dod
gers, 16-7. Pittsburgh handed the
St. Louis Cards their fourth
straight defeat, 5-3. Chicago’s Cubs
earned a 12-inning 4-3 win over
Cincinnati.
Trout not only held the White
Sox to five hits, but highlighted
Detroit’s six-run second inning
with a single that scored two
mates. A crowd of 50,262 saw him
score what proved to be the win
ning run,

Crackers Trim
Barons; Run
Lead To Seven
By GEORGE McARTHUR
Associated Press Sports Writer
A 24-year-old lefthander who
was available cheap at the begin
ning of the season is the first 20
game winner in the Southern As
sociation.
Bob Schultz, the surprise pack
age from Nashville, turned the
trick last night with a five-hit 9-1
victory over Chattanooga.
When the season began and it
came squad trimming time, Man
ager Don Osborn thought of chop
ping off the husky southpaw who
compiled only a mediocre record
at Muskegon the year before,
Schultz had been picked up on
waivers from Memphis.
However, Nashville’s hurling
staff in the early stages seemed to
lack anyone who could last nine
innings so Schultz stayed on doing
relief roles and getting an oc
casional starting bid.
Those occasional starting bids
saved Schultz. He started winning
and Osborn decided to keep him,
Last night the southpaw came
within two strikeouts of a league
record for a regular nine inning
game, He fanned 15 of the Look
outs, and gave up four walks,
The beginning of the big series
between Atlanta and Birrringham
got underway with the Crackers
winning 8-6 and lengthening their
league lead to seven games. New
Orleans downed Chattanooga 9-1
'and Little Rock and Memphis split
'a doubleheader, the Rocks win
ning the first -0 and losing the
'second 10-2,
Verble’s Homer iy
Atlanta’s victory came about
because shortstop Gene Verble
doesn’t like being famed as a light
weight hitter, He has been aiming
at the fences recently and broke
up last night's contest with an in
side the park, two run homer in
the eighth.
Ex-major leaguer Hugh Casey,
who went to the mound as a re
lief pitcher, was credited with the
victory. Birmingham’s ace hurler
Leo Kiely was handed his seventh
loss of the year against 15 tri
umphs.
Another top hurling perform
ance came fronr Little Rock’s Milo
Johnson in the first game against
Memphis. He had ano hitter go
ing when Ed McGhee managed a
scratch single. That was the last
hit off Johnson for the night, He
fanned seven batters and gave up
five walks. ; o
In the second game, the Chicks
let go with 15 hits while their
star moundsman Marvin Rotblatt
won his seventeenth of the year
on a five-hit performance.
In New Orleans, the Pellicans
Bob Purkey and Mobile’'s Marion
Fricano engaged in a pitching bat
tle with plenty of hits—but all
well scattered. . o
Purkey was credited with the
decision. His only bad inning
saw Walt Moryn smack a one-on
fiomer to score all of Mobile’s tal
es, .

Oconee Street Methodist Church won the Municipal
Softball Red League championship last night at Legion
Park, by virtue of a 10-5 victory over Prince Avenue Bap
tist. 4 S B
..The win last night put the
the Methodist a game and a half
in front of Prince Avenue, and
left no mathematical chance for
the Baptist to cop the crown. Reg
ular play ends tonight in the
league. i
Oconee is scheduled to make-up
a game with the Optimist tomor
row night, but tentative plans are
to pass the tilt up since it would
have no bearing on the final
standings.
Tonight, the Optimist and Uni
versity Profs tangle in the first
game, followed by Athens Man
ufacturing Company and the Post
Office. Should the Post Office out
fit take tonight’s encounter from
Manufacturing, the Blue league
would end in a deadlock.
It has been announced by the
Recreation and Parks Department,
that there will be a five-team
playoff. University Profs have
stated they will not be able to
compete in the playoffs, and that
leaves just five clubs. The origin
al plan was for the top two clubs
in each league to battle for the
championship in a double elimina
tion tourney, and the bottom four
to play in a consolation division.
But since there will be just five
clubs, all will play in one tourney
for the city crown.

AMES, IA., Aug 17—(AP)—
They’ll cut the rield to eight con
tenders today in the National Jun=
ior golf tournament sponsored by
the U. S. Junior Chamber of Coms=
merce, ey
First work on hand was the
completion of six second round
matches delayed by last night’s
darkness, That done, the lads were
ready to swing into third round
play involving 32 contenders, a
fourth round afterncon program
would reduce the title-ambitious
kids to eight in number.
Most talked of player in the
tournament conducted at the stub
born lowa State College course
was Billy Sparks, the 17-year
old from Atlanta, Ga.
Billy’s clubs and shoes were lost
in transit from the South to Ames.
He overcame that handicap to win
the Medalist honors and two
match play contests. An Ames
business man furnished the clubs
and he was ready today to give
Billy a pair of shoes with cleats.
Billy progressed quite satisfac
torily yesterday in his street shoes
and borrowed clubs. He knocked
off Frank Little, Greensboro N. C.,
3 and 2, in the first rounid, Char
lie Strack, York, Pa., ¢ and 3, in
the second.
Sparks’ third round foe was
capable Don Dosen of Minnea~

But there were a good many
favorites remaining in the title
hunt with Billy, They include
Seeded

quarter-finals in this summer’s

Affair, 17-14
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 17—(AP)
—Washington's Redskins and Log
Angele’ Rams turned each othe
er’s miscues into scores last night,
and the Redskins won 17-14,
The season’s opener, a charity
exhibition, drew a memorial coli
seum turnout of 90,135 fans—
claimed by the sponsoring Los
Angeles Times as a new profes
sional attendance record.
Bob ' Waterfield, veteran field
General of the Rams, sent the
Redskins off into the lead by
fumbling on his own nine-yard
line two minutes after the game
started. Sammy Baugh passed to
Bill Dudley for a touchdown on
the next play.
In the next quartér, Baugh bob
bled a pass from center deep in his
own ,territory, then tried to toss
to George Thomas before he was
snowed under. Fleet George Sims
of the Rams cut in, took the ball
on the 25 and crossed the goal un
touched, Waterfield converted.
Dudley put the Easterners ahead
again with a 32-yard field goal
later in the quarter, after a 48-
yard Redskin drive bogged down.
The Redskins at the opening of
the third quarter drove 70 yards
in 14 plays, then Harry Gilmer
let loose a pass to Eddie Saenz
near the goal. The Rams’ Woodley
Lewis knocked it down, but in
terference was ruled on the one
yard line. Bob Goode went over
on the next play and Dudley con
verted again. A
The Rams made their last tally
on a strange play. Norm Van
Brocklin passed to Bob Boyd on
the 15. Boyd went five yards and
dropped the ball when tackled.
Washington recovered, but the of
ficials ruled Van Brocklin was
roughed. The 15-yard penalty took
the ball to the seven, and Tommy
Kilmani galloped across on the
next play, Waterfield coverting
again.
Glenn Davis, Army’s one-time
Mr. Outside, making his pro de
but, averaged only 2.83 yards in
six times with the ball.
All a dash of bluing when
laundering black garments to keep
them dark-as-new. This will pre
vent their acquiring a brownish
tinge.
