He stated that many parents

Holmes Fired:
2
Grimm Gets
Boston Helm
By RALPH RODEN
NEW YORK, May 31—(AP)—
‘Tommy Holmes was fired today as
manager of the Boston Braves, a
job he had held less than a year,
and Charley Grimm was named
as his successor.
The 53-year-old former pilot of
the Chicago Cubs will take over
the seventh place Braves in Cin
cinnati tomorrow,
Brave Ggneral Manager John
Quinn said Grimm had been
signed for the remainder of the
present season and also for 1953.
He refused to reveal salary terms.
Quinn said that Holmes would be
retained in some ‘capacity in the
Boston organization,
Milwaukee Pilot
Grimm, an outstanding National
League first baseman from 1919
to 1933, had been pilot of the
Braves’ Milwaukee team in the
American Association. He led the
Brewérs to the pennant and play=
off championship last year.
The fun loving new leader of
Braves began his managerial ca
reer in 1932 when he replaced
Rogers Horfisby as manager of
the Cubs in mid-season. The Cubs
went on to win the pennant.
Quinn said, “We have a lot of
regard for Tommy Holmes. But we
felt Holmes needed more experi
ence. We selected Grimm be=
cause Charley has that experience
and background, both as a mana
ger in the majors and the minors.”
Holmes managed the Braves
since last June 20, replacing Billy
Southworth, Holmes began 1951
as pilot of the Braves’ Hartford
club in the Eastern League, his
first venture as a manager follow
ing nine seasons as a Boston out
fielder.
Quinn said that Red Smith, Mil
waukee general manager and one
of Grimm’s buddies, would man
age Milwaukee until a successor
is named there. '
It was the first managerial
change since the start of the 1952
season.
Grimm has managed the Chica
go Cubs twice before and has been
boss at Milwaukee twice. The
Brewers currently are in first
place.
1932 Pennant
After winning the 1932 pennant
with the Cubs, he finished third
in both 1933 and 1934 and then
won another pennant in 1935 when
he was both manager and vice
president.
He resign ; vice-president in
1936 {nit cg%?iued to boss the
Cubs util July 20, 1938 when he
suddenly was relieved of com
mand in favor of Gabby Hartnett.
Hartnett spurred the team to the
pennant, beating out Pittsburgh
in the last week of the season.
It was at Milwaukee in 1941
that Grimm enjoyed his greatest
success. He led the Brewers to a
pennant and one runner-up spot.
He had the Brewers in first place
in 1944 when he returned to his
first love, the Cubs. He succeeded
Wilson as manager on May 7.
With Dallas
The following season he brought
Chicago its first pennant in seven
years but after that season the
fortunes of the Cubs declined and
on June 10, 1949, Grimm once
again was relieved of command.
In 1950, he accepted an offer to
manage. Dallas of the Texas
League,
Following the 1950 season
Grimm quit his job at Dallas and
shortly thereafter signed to man
age Milwaukee.

THE BANNER-HERALD., ATHENS, GEORGIA
. PRESTWICK, Scotland, May 31.— (AP) — Harvie
Ward, a boyish, easy-swinging North Carolinian who was
spurned by U. S. Walker Cup selectors a year ago,
thwarted Frank Stranahan’s bid for a third British Ama
teur Championship today when he trounced the Toledo,
Ohio, spark plug heir, 6 and 5, in their All-America final.
The 26-year-old brokerage sales
man from Tarboro, N. C., playing
his first big international event,
overcame an early attack of put
ting jitters and finished with a
brilliant 17-hole streak of sub?par
golf,
Surrender >
When Stranahan surrendered on
the 31st hole, without putting,
young Ward was four under par
from the 14th hole, where he was
two down, to the finish.
Stranahan, winner of this his
toric event in 1948 and 1950 who
hoped to become the first Ameri
can to snag the title three times,
lost the groove with his wood clubs
and was a pathetic figure off the
tees.
He missed 23 fairways with his
drives. Seven times he hit into
yawning bunkers, once he caught a
creek and another time a sand
dune. He was trapped repeatedly
off the tee and, on the tenth, his
drive dribbled a mere 90 yards.
But it is doubtful that Stranahan
at his best could have handled the
inspired young Southerner today.
Ward becomes the ninth Ameri
can to take the huge British trophy
across the Atlantic sinée Jesse
Sweetser won it for the first home
grown American triumph in 1926,
Australian-born Walter Travis
captured the title as a representa
tive of the U. S. in 1904.
Stranahan and Lawson Little,
who won successive titles in 1934
and 1935, are the lone Americans
to win more than once. The fabu
lous Bobby Jones made three tries
but came through only in his
Grand Slam year of 1930."
“Outplayed Me”
“He certainly outplayed me,”
Stranahan said at presentation
ceremonies later, “I think he’ll be
a grand champion.” .
Ward, speaking in a low voice,
said, “I realize I was very lucky
today. Frank wasn’t playing his
best game. He is the greatest ama
teur golfer in the United States.”
The new champion, former U. S.
Intercollegiate king, won the tur
nament impressively the hard way.
He came through the tough brack
et which included defending
champion Dick Chapman, U. S.
Amateur titlist Billy Maxwell, U.
S. Walker Cupper Jim McHale
and the man rated as Britain's
leading amateur, Joe Carr.

Hank Sauer
Belts ’Em
For Cubs
By JERRY LISKA
CHICAGO, May 31 —(AP)—
Hammerin’® Hank Sauer, the Na
tional League’s batting scourge of
the hour, may be the Chicago
Cubs’ present-day Hack Wilson,
It’s been 22 years since the late
Lewis R. Wilson smote terror into
the hearts of enemy pitchers. In
1930, the pudgy, barrel-chested
Wilson set the present major
league* record of 190 RBl's and
hung up the current National loop
mark of 56 homers.
Elongated
The elongated Sauer, a physical
opposite of Wilson, is smashing the
ball with all of Hack’s devostating
gusto.
As the Sauer - sparked Cubs
sought their seventh win in eight
strats today against the Cincinnati
‘Reds, big Henry led im four de
partments - hitting with .338;
RBl's with 45; home runs with 10;
and hits with 52. He also ranked
fifth in two-baggers with 10 and
in rung with 26,
Because he hasn’t started sa well
since his first full-time major
league season with the Reds in
1948, Sauer conceivaly could mem
ace Wilson’s- long-standing RBI
' and homer marks.
| In each of the past four sea-
Isons, Hank did his most potent
clouting in August and September,
yet he banged 35 homers in 1948,
31 in 1949 the year he was traded
by the Reds to the Cubs, 32 in
1950 and 30 last season.
Hank has no explanation for his
meteoric start, other than “I'm
hitting away straight, forgetting
about pulling the ball to left field,
and I feel mightly relaxed up there
at the plate.”
“Sauer” Shift
Sauer’s increasing tendency to
slash low outside pitches to right
field has confounded rival teams,
whose use of the “Sauer” shift to
protect left field is old hat now.
There might be a good explana
tion of Sauer’s relaxation, He's
quite a happy father of a baby
daughter whose arrival after 11
years of marriage delighted the
Sauver hosehold. The tot is nine
months old and a subject of willing
' conversation for the usually reti
cent Hank.
