Relations between Montgomery
and Birmingham couldn’t be more
@ordial. The reason for this phe
womenal situation is a slugging
sutfielder namecd Dick Greco.
Birmingham sent Greco to the
Sally League Grays a few weeks
ago when cutting down time ar
rived in the Southern Association.
Since his arrival, the big fellow
has clubbed nine homers, two of
them last night while the Grays
were sweeping a doubleheader
from the Macon Peaches to climb
into a first place tie with Savan
neh.
Greco belted his round-trippers
in the 7-0 opener. In the second
game, J. W. Jones homered with
a mate aboard in the last of the
11th to hand the Peaches their
eighth straight loss 4-2. It was
Meonegomery’s seventh consecu
tive triumph.
Flsewhere in the Sally, Augusta
edged the Colubus Cardinals, 6-5;
Jacksonville bowed to Charleston
by the same score, and Savannah
walloped Columbia, 8-1.
The Savannah Indians won their
third game in a row from last
ptace Columbia on Russ Swin
ole’s seven-hitter. It was the Red
«in hurler's sixth success against
two losses. For the third straight
evening, the Reds could get but
one run off able Redskin mounds
mon.
Frank Pack’s ninth inning home
run at Columbus won for the Au
eusta Tigers and gave them an
even split in the four-game se
rics. Juan Montero, who worked
in three of the tilts, was the win
ning pitcher. Montero won two
#nd lost one in the series.
A home run also brought victo
rv to the Charleston Rebels.
Shortstop Sonny Bollman blasted
a towering, 360-foot drive over
the left field wall in the eighth
to top the Jacksonville Tars. It
was Bollman’s second circuit blow
of the season.
In the Montgomery sweep, twa
o*her ex-Southern Association
riavers were the winning pitchers.
/1 Lamacchia shut out Macon on
five hits in the seven-inning open
er, and Stan Karpinski went all
the way in the overtime afterpiece.

into the future in Kansas City,
where the big left-hander is
trying to relieve arm trouble as
well as starting hurlers. (NEA®
Grasshoppers,
Yardbirds
Win ‘Y’ Loops
One run was the victory margin
for the Grasshoppers of the Cub
League and the Yardbirds of the
Midget-Intermediate circuit in the
softball loop championship games
played at Athens YMCA yester
day.
In the Cub League the Grass
hoppers took their third “Y”

hoppers were the league leaders
and the Blue Devils won the tour
nament.

inning of play on an error. Jim
my Allman sacrificed to move
Beck to second, and he went to
third on a single by Tommy

home with only one man out on
a single by Stan Mangleburg.
Each team errored only once
during the tilt. Dick Ferguson,

hits. Perteet was the losing pitch
er.

singles, were Jimmy Allen, Ted
Ridlehuber, Beck, Strickland, and
Mangleburg.

series games, 2-1.
The Yardbirds took the first
game last night, 12-10, from the
Buckaroos and then gathered the
championship laurels with a 10-9
victory in the finale.
In the first fracas Bobby Carter
with a homer and two singles was
tops for the winners while Jimmy
Delk and George Upchurch also
shined at the plate. For the Buck
aroos Donald Epps, Bobby Mat
thews, Bobby Duncan, and Leon
Farmer were tops.
Vietory Score
The winning run in the second
game was scored when Bobby
arbrough hit a triple in the bot
tom half of the last inning and
come home on an error to win the
game.
Lou Lanard was top man for the
winners with two homers and a
double while Bobby Carter got a
homer also. Other hitters for win
ners were Fred Leathers, Bippy
Watson, and Valdon Smith.
The Buckaroos’ big gun was
Bobby Duncan who collected a
triple and single. Teammate Don
ald Cofer hit safely twice. o
Yesterday's series games ended
the spring softball season at the

Midget-Intermediate leagues com

Barna Sparks
Vol Victory
Over Barons
By The Associated Press
A veteran outfileder and a pre
viously mediocre pitcher are pro
viding strong crutches for the in
jury-weakened Nashville Vols.
Big Babe Barna, picked up as
a free agent a month ago following
his release by Baltimore, rapped
a double and three singles last
night to spark the Sulphur Dell
Sluggers to a 12-10 decision over
Birmingham, His four-for-five ev
ening hiked Barna’s batting mark
to .308. He has htt at a .469 clip
in the last nine games.
The other crutch, righthander
Jim Atchley, came on in relief for
Pete Mallory in the ninth with
three runs in, one out and a Baron
runner on first. He threw one ball
to Don Hasenmayer and the Baron
third baseman grounded into a
double play to end the game.
With five . pitchers ailing and
Butser Boguskie, the league’s lead
ing hitter, out with an infected
toe, the series triumph comforted
the Vols quite a bit.
In the Y.oop’s only other engage
ment, Chattanoosa’s hustling look
outs won their five-game set with
Atlanta, trimming the Crackers;
7-5.
Atchley goes after his fifth
straight victory tonight against
Chattanooga. His mound opponent
will be Alton Brown. N
Atlanta goes to Birmingham
where Bobo Newsom will throw
for the Barons before departing
for the National celebraties golf
tournament at Washington. Right
hander Al Henencheck (3-2) will
work for the Crackers.
Milo Johnson (7-1) will start
for Little Rock. Chubby Frank
Biscan, a lefthander, is manager
like Apboling’s ehoice.
New Orleans Journevs to Mobile,
where Southpaw Bill Kenedy
(2-4) has been named to face Leon
Griffith (3-1) of Mobile.
In winning nine straight games,

scored 524 points to 46 for their
foes.

After being bounced around by
four teams for the last four week~
ends, the top position is as tight
as a drum at the present time,
with Comer leading by a half
game, and Diamond Hill and the
Athens V.F.W. in a tie for the se~
cond place slot.
Whitehall holds the third place
back and under the pace being
set by their nine recently, are
favored to break some of the ten~
sion in their game with the Hillers
tomorrow. Last week-end White
hall dropped leading Comer while
the Hillers dropped two in a row.
In other games tomorrow, the
V.F.W. will meet Watkinsville at
Watkinsville. The host nine won
their second tilt in thirteen starts
last week-end to start a rumoredi
rally for a comeback. The veterans
meanwhile, will seek a win tomor- !
row, in an effort to move into first
place if possible,
Second Meeting ‘
At Winterville tomorrow, Man
ager C. W. Carson’s Farmington
nine will take on the Winterville
lads in the second meeting of
these two teams this season. In
the last appearance between these
two teams. Winterville defeated
Farmingten aggregation for one of
their three victories this season,
and they will be out for a repeat
performance tomorrow if possible.
Farmington has seen a small win
streak recently however, as they
moved into the first division
standings last week-end ahead of
Colbert.
The Colbert nine will face Stat
ham tomorrow in action on their
home diamond. Statham garnered
a win last week-end after a lay
off the previous week due to in
ability to field a team and are set
to continue such a pace tomorrow
if the Colbert crew will allow it.
Colbert has been playing in a
slump recently as they dropped to
the lower division last week-end.
The final action of the day will
find the league leaders at Bogart
where Manager Ralph Whitehead
journies with his Comer crew in
an effort to tsretch their lead if
possible. The first place berth was
barely saved for the Comer nine
last week-end and they seek a
safer margin fomorrow.
Bogart meanwhile dropped their
Sunday tilt last week-end to the
V.F.W. as the Athens Veterans
moved into the second place tieup.

Babe was three up on the

Dodgers Bump
Phillies, 4 -3;
Tempers Rise
BY JACK HAND
Associated Press Sports Writer
Trouble flared in Brooklyn last
night as pitcher Russ Meyer of the
Phils bumped Jackie Robinson in
a home plate mix-up in the eighth
inning of the Dodgers’ 4-3 decis
ion over the 1950 champs.
Robinson, caught in a rundown
after Carl Furillo missed a squeeze
bunt, scored when Meyer dropped
the ball. Russ tried to block the
plate from Robinson but Jackie
got past him. Meyer then bumped
the negro star with his chest.
Only quick action by his team
mates prevented blows.
The Brooks left 15 on base but
won the game on the run Robin
son scored.
It was the same old story for the
Phils, failure to hit in the pinch
es and ineffective pitching. It was
the only game scheduled.
Paul Richards’ Chicago White
Sox, of course, are the real sur
prise package of baseball. Still
working on a 14-game winning
streak five short of the league rec
ord, they get a chance to pick on
the Philadelphia A’s for two days
before Boston moves into town.
The old college try plus ex
ceptional hitting. from such un
expected sources as Nelson Fox
and rookie Jim Busby back up the
slugging of Minie Minoso, Eddie
Robinson and others for Richards.
