No regular teams have been set
up as yet, but different squads are

[.me¢ Basham, a right-handed
fireballer, seems to be both the
pitching and hitting star of the
two games in which he has hurled.
He has received credit for both
victories, with each of the wins
being by a one-run margin. On
Wednesday, Basham relieved
starter Billy Nunnally in the third
inning to finish the tilt. Not only
did he turn in an air-tight pitch
ine performance, but Basham also
cracked the game-winning homer
with two mates aboard in the last
inning. That hit won the game,
10-9. The losing hurler was Jack
Jackson, who gave up six hits and
walkea two. His battery mate was
David White. Buddy Broadnax
handled the backstop chores for
the winners,
Basham Stars
Basham was a shining-light
aoain on Friday when he twirled
four-hit ball to lead his team to
2 9-8 win. He continued his hit
ting, banging out a double and a
triple during the game. The losing
hurler was Jim Hall, a lefthander,
who allowed only two base hits
but was plagued by errors. Mike
Tolbert, Jack Jackson, David
White, and Carey each got a hit
for the losers.
In Thursday's game, Billy Nun
nally gave up four hits, walked
nine, and struck out four as his

perience. They are taught and
supervised by an able instructor,
Arnold DeLaPerriere, the Athens
High baseball mentor.

Julius Boros Wins US National;
Hogan Falters In Final Rounds
BY WILL GRIMSLEY
DALLAS, June 14.—(AP)
—Ben Hogan’s golf dynasty
crumbled today and a 200-
pound North Carolina ap
prentice professional, Julius
Boros, came scrambling out
of nowhere to win the 52nd
National Open champion
ship with a 72-hole score of
281.
The unheralded 32 - year - old
from Southern Pines, N. C., won
with a four-stroke margin over
chubby Ed Oliver of Lemont, 111,,
who sank a 30-foot birde putt on
the final green to beat out Hogan
for second place by a stroke.
Oliver had a tournament total
(2){362'85 while Hogan finished with
Playing, like a man of destiny,
Boros collared the great three
time champion Hogan with a blaz=
ing two-under-par 68 in the morn=
ing and then hung up firmly by
shooting a scattered-shot 71 in
the final round. -
Hogan The Hawk, as his fellow
professionals call him, weakened
under the blistering Texas sun
and soared to rounds of 74 and 74
after wrenching the midway con
trols of this 52nd tournament with
a pair of sparkling 695.
He was a tired old man of 39
when he trudged to the 72nd
green—his hopes of a record four
champlonships in as many suc
cessive attempts shattered when
kinks developed in his once peer
less iron game.
Oliver, the little round man who
was disqualified for a late start
after he finished in a tie for the
title in 1940, played with Hogan
as a partner on the final day and
blasted out rounds of 70 and 72.
Other ambitions were wrecked
and strewn over Northwood’s
6,782~ ard course in one of the
most dramatic climaxes of the 58-
year-old links classic.
Tal' John Bulla of Vernona,
Pa.,, was a confender right up to
the last. Thep, he missed a six
foot eagle puft on the 145th hole
of his final round, went over par
on the 16th and 18th and finished
with a 287 for fourth place.
Balding George Fazio of Clem
enton, N..J. second behind Hogan
going into the showdown final 36,
blew himself-to a pair of heart
breaking 75s which gave him fifth
at 290.
And there was Sam Snead, a
strong favorite finally to comre
through to the open crown he has
never won. Snead went 40 straight
holegs without a birdie and made
only three birdies in the entire 72
holes as he blew sky high to 293.
This was the first important
tournament victory for Boros. g{e
is just three years out of amatéur
ranks, having led the mnation’s
qualifying for the U. S. Amateur
in 1948 and gained the quarter
finalg in 1949.
Boros was four strokes back of
Hogan going into the showdown 36
holes. e
During the morning round, he
played the front side in even par
35, counting a two-over six on the
eighth, and then he rushed back
in 33 strokes, two under. Par for
the course is 35-35—70.
Asked if he ever worried about
Hogan, the greatest comebacker of
them all, Boros reeplied:
“I heard he went out of bounds
on the sixth but I was fighting a
double bogey on the 12th myself
then and so I couldn't gloat,” the
new champion commented.
Hogan said he thought this
costly out-of-bounds on his last
round was ihe deciding shot of the
tournanrent. After a good drive
on the treacherous 448-yard dog
leg hole, he leaned into a four
wood which carried over the green
and out of playin(f territory.
~ “I had no idea a four-wood
‘would carry so far,” the former
‘titlist said.

Raschi Hurls Second Straight
® .
Shutout As Yanks Regain Lead
CLEVELAND, June 14.—(AP)—Vic Raschi and Yogi Berra formed a super charged
battery today as the New York Yankees trounced the Cleveland Indians, 11-0, to regain
the American Loaguoulvzxd. h et el e e W “
Raschi blanked the Indians on
four hits and struck out eight for
his sixth victory and second
straight shutout. Hegdidn’t allow
a hit until Al Rosen doubled with
two out in the sixth.
Berra knocked in five runs,
three with a homer in the first
inning and two with a single in
the ninth. It was the fifth homer
in five games, and the ninth of
the season for the burly backstop.
Berra’s homer gave the Yan
kees a 3-0 lead against Early
Wynn, who also served a two-run
homer to Gene Woodling in the
third inning. The Yankees scored
one run off Sam Jones in the sev
enth and five off Mickey Harris
in the ninth.
Wynn served singles to Mickey
Mantle and Hank Bauer before
Berra connected in the first in
ning. Woodling’s wallop followed
a single by Gil McDougald and
gave the Yankees a 5-0 lead.
Giants Drop Cards
Larry Jansen, champion papa of
the major leagues, celebrated Fath-~
er’s Day several hours early as he
pitched and batted the New York
Giants to a 4-3 victory over the
St. Louis Cardinals.
Jansen, father of seven, not on
ly scattered 10 hits effectively, but
helped with his sixth game of the
vear with a timely single in the
fourth inningz that drove in two
runs.
Those fwo tallies plus home runs
by Bob Elliott and Wes Westrum
enabled the Giants to snap the
Cards’ winning streak at three
straight and gave righthander
Cloyd Boyer his third loss against
two wins. Jansen has lost twice.

U. S. Golfers
Get Set For
Sy
British Play
TROON, Scotlana, June 14 —
(AP)—Ten Americans will com
pete Monday in the opening round
of the British Women’s Golf
championship, and there is a
strong possibility one of them will
be the winner when the finals are
played Thursday.
Included in the U. S. contingent
are members of the Curtis Cup
team, defeated by the British at
Muirfield, June 6-7.
Those players, headed by the
U. S. champion Dorothy Kirby of
Atlanta, have tested their game in
the strong winds that usually pre=~
vail on Scottish seaside courses.
| That experience should stand
l them in good stead here. The pre
vailing westerly wind off the
Firth of Clyde blows across most
of the 6,500 yard, par 74 course,
scene of the forthcoming cham
pionships.
The watered greens hold pitches
well but the rolling fairways have
baked hard in wunusually dry
weather., Finishing a practice
round, Miss Kirby said: “I like this
course. The way it plays now I
am getting plenty of distance with
a good roll.”
Mrs. Peggy Maccan of Ireland
will defend her championship.
There are 108 entries in all.
Mrs. Frank Goldthwaite of Fort
Worth, non-playisi * captain of the
Curtis Cup team, was the only
American to draw a first round
bye. She will begin play in the
second round Monday afternoon.
Miss Kirby meets teammate Pat
O’'Sullivan of Orange, Conn, in
the first round.
Sam Mele’s eighth inning single
registered two runs and backed a
fine relief job by Harry Dorish to
give the Chicago White Sox a 4-2
win over Boston and toppled the
Red Sox from first place in the
American League race.
Homers by Chicago’s Eddie
Robinson and Boston’s Ted Lepcio
had Mel Parnell of the Red Sox
and Hector Brown of the White
Sox hooked up in a 1-1 mound
duel until the seventh when the
heat began wilting both starters.
Mele’s decisive blow shattered
a 2-2 deadlock, scoring Nellie Fox
from second and Minnie Minoso
from first when Boston center
fielder Dom DiMaggio fumbled
the hit.
Five Hitter
Russ Meyer and Jim Konstan
ty turned back the Pittsburgh Pi
rates 4 to 2 on five hits to end a
four-game Philadelphia Phillies’
losing streak.
Meyer, gaining credit for his
third win of the campaign, al
lowed the Pirates only five hits,
one df them a ninth-inning homer
by Pete Castiglione that brought
Konstanty to the rescue.
Meyer also contributed to the
Phillies attack with a second-in
ning single that scored catcher
Smoky Burgess, who had preced=
ed the Philadelphia hurler with a
walk and went to third on Ralph
Caballero’s single,
- Tenth Straight
Little Bobby Shantz marked up
his 10th straight victory and his
11th of the season as the Phila
delphia Athletics tagged the St.
Louis Browns for a pair of four
run innings in a 9-2 triumph.
A series of big time wrest
ling bouts in which some of
the top wrestlers of today
will participate has been
scheduled for Athens by the
local Optimist Club, with the
first card set for tomorrow
night at the old Athens High
School gymnasium,
The main bout of the initial
card, which will get underway at
8:15, will feature Don Mnllntyre,
224 pounds of Atlanta and former
southern heavyweight champion
champion against Babe Zarahas,
228 pounds of Denver, Colorado,
in a best two out of three fall bout
slated for a title limit of one hour.
Both men are familiar to tele
vision fans. Zarahas, the rough
and ready. Greek, has been seen
many times while wrestling team
matches with his brother Tom, and
Mcintyre has been a popular fi
gure over the south. Mclntyre held
the Southern Heavyweight Cham=-
pionship for several months.
The semi-final bout slated for
the best two out of three falls
matches Jack Ross, jr., 222 pounds,
of Anderson, S. C. and Bob shipp,
218 pounds, of Dallas. Ross is of
the topgsouthern wrestlers and
betweerfl)o&s he is bootball coach
for Anderson High School. Shipp
is a rough and rugged wrestler
that stops at nothing to win a
bout.
The opening bout slated for one
fall or twenty minute time limit
pits two rugged men against each
other in Red Dugan, 218 pounds,
of Marietta and Honey Roy Han
nigan, 222 pounds, of Charleston,

Prep Champs
To Vie For
ie I
Diamond Title
* GADSEN, Ala. June 14 (AP)—
Eight of Dixie's sharpest prep
champions will battle it out for the
Southeastern high school baseball
championship beginning here
Tuesday.
Repeaters in this year’s tourna
ment are defending champions
Richmond Academy of Augusta,
Ga., Montgomery’s Sidney Lanier
and Central High of Jackson, Miss.
Lanier won the 1950 tournament
and Jackson the previous year.
New teams this year are Dupont
Manual High of Louisville, Ky.,
Mt. Vernon High of Alexandria,
Va., Kingsport, Tenn. Gadsden
and Edison High of Miami, Fla.
Central High is shooting for the
title for the fifth time in the past
seven years. Through the regular
season the Jackson team posted 21
victories against three losses.
Mt. Vernon’s majors went
through their season with a 17-2
record to win the Virginia high
school championship.
Lanier, winner of the Alabama
i crown for the last mree year, fin
{ ished with a 14-6 season’s record.
By winning the decision, Shantz
kept his spot as the No. 1 pitcher
in the majors. The spunky left
hander has lost but one game thus
far.
The Browns outhit the A’s, nine
to eight, but pitching wildness
kept them in trouble. Starter and
loser Tommy Byrne walked six,
and three relief hurlers added
three more passes. Byrne, who
hasn’t won a decision since May
10, gave up five of the Philadel
phia runs.
15 Inning Affair
Rushed into center field for de
fensive purposes in the 11th, Hal
Jeffcoat came up with a two-run
triple in the 15th inning to give
the Chicago Cubs a 3-1 decision
over the Boston Braves for their
10th win in 11 starts.
That mighty blow to left field
was a heart-breaker for lefty War
ren Spahn who went the full dis
tance for the Braves, fanning 18
oft the Cubs while scattering 10
hits.
Spahn, who homered .in the
sixth for the Braves lone run, did
not give up a base on balls until he
had one out in the 15th. Then he
faltered by passing Roy Smalley.
After relief pitcher Johnny Klipp
stein sacrificed Smalley, Spahn
tried to set up a double play by
deliberately tossing Eddie Miksis,
who had pounded two doubles and
a single, four consccutive wide
pitches. Then came Jeffcoat’s
game-winning clout.
Hank Sauer, the Cubs’ homerun
slugger, fanned thrice and now
has gone hitless on his last 14 tries
at the plate.

DeMolays Split Pair;
A 9
Municipal Lead Tied
BY “DRIFTY” DRIFTMIER ;
The Frank Hardeman DeMolays split a twilight double
header Friday night in the Municipal League by stopping
a hustling Lyndon House nine, 7-5, and falling before the
mound mastery of Uke Cape and his James boys, 4-1,
Although Lyndon House Ilost
their sixth straight game, the boys
won a “moral victory.” They com
mitted only three errors and issued
just two walks in showing the
fans that they weren’t going to
take defeat without a fight.
At the end of the fourth inning,
the score was 6-4, DeMolay on top.
Then in the top of the final frame,
Charles Flanagan scored on
George Upchurch’s single to put
the victors two runs ahead, 7-5.
Lyndon House, battling for their
first win, pinch hit power hitter
Richard Bngrand. England lined
one into center field for a base
hit. The rally was stopped short,
however, as the next two batters
grounded out, and the last man
went down swinging.
Elliott Smith went all the way
for the DeMolays, giving up seven
hit; and walking two, He retired
six men on strikes. Emerson Hey
good gave his finest performance
of the season on the mound for
the losers, S
Bobby Coile and Bill Compton
banged out two hits apiece along
with Howard Gilmer, Lyndon
House right fielder, to lead the
hitting column. Coile’s first hit
came on a tree-crashing homerun
over the right field bank.
In the second game of the twin=
bill, Uke Cape allowed three De=-
Molay runners to reach ' rst base
in posting his third victory of the
season for Charlie James. The win
put the James team in another
tie with Sam Smith for first place
in the league race.
Both Cape and Dickie Saye, De=
Molay hurler, whiffed twelve bat=
ters in the duel. Saye pitched a
neat five-hitter to no avail to put
his record at two wins, three loss=
es.
The DeMolay aggregation scored
their only run in the fifth inning
