-TV Ban Defied
By Pennsylvani
Off to Santone
Philadelphia, June 7—(TP*—The
University of Pennsylvania defied
the National Collegiate Athletic
Association ban on televising of
college football gamgs. The pos
sibility of a wide open break in
college ranks appeared imminent.
Theoretically, such major oppon
ents of Pennsylvania as Army,
Navy, Princeton, California, Wis
consin and Cornell would be re
quired to cancel their football
• games to abide by NCAA rules.
Pennsylvania made known its
position in a telegram from Fran
ny Murray, director of athletics,
to Dr. Hugh C. Willett of Southern
California, president of the NCAA,
which urged the calling of a spec
ial meeting to reconsider the prob
lem.
Pennsylvania Will Cooperate
“The University of Pennsylvania
will cooperate in studying and re
porting to the NCAA on the ef-
a fects of television, but it will not
combine in a ban on television and
will carry on as an obligation to
its alumni friends, and the public
i its 11-year record of television,
(fi dividing the revenues equally with
the. other universities and colleges
with which it plays,” said the
telegram.

r,handler Turns In
His Resignation
New York, June 7—(A 5 )—Albert
B. (Happy) Chandler said last
night he has turned in his resig
nation as baseball commissioner
contingent on the club owners’ ac
ceptance of a self provised sever
ance contract for his protection.
Chandler said no date was spec
ified for his resignation.
“I left the space blank,” he
said. “However, if we come to
terms, my resignation will be some
time not too far off. I will fill
in the date if, and when they sign
it.”
He indicated strongly he had an
other position in mind and would
be out of baseball within two or
three weeks, or just before the
all-star game July 10. He- did not
say what the new position was.
The commission was confident
the severance pact, which would
indemnify him against financial re
sponsibility for any damages as
sessed against organized baseball
luring the remaining year his con-
iract has to run, will be approved.
adopted as an experiment by the
NCAA evecutive committee, all in
dividual televising of college games
would be stopped.
Instead one big national game-
or a series of important regional
games—would be televised each
Saturday, with certain areas
“blacked out” to study the effects
on attendance.
Topic of Discussion
Television has been a major
topic of discussion in college ath
letic circles ever since the 1950
season showed a general decline
in attendance in areas where there
was widespread televising of foot
ball, in contrast to increases in
regions where there was little or
no television.
Tom Hamilton, chairman of
NCAA television committee, said
Penn is setting itself apart and
taking advantage of the artificial
vacuum caused by willingness of
other schools to pass up financial
gain this year.
ASA Bushnell, head of the East
ern College Athletic Conference,
said this group had agreed to abide
by the NCAA television program.

Locke Favored
As 16 Pros Tee
Off in Tourney
New Rochelle, N. Y., June 7
— (AP)— Sixteen of the
world’s leading golf, pros, in
cluding the great Bobby
Locke of South Africa, sharp
ened up their shots in preparation
for the annual 90-hole Palm Beach
round robin tournament which be
gan today.
Locke, the British open champ
ion, has won the Palm Beach twice
and finished second in three tries.
He did not come over last year
and Lloyd Mangrum, the man with
the mustache, won first prize with
a score of “plus 37.” Mangrum and
Locke are playing together in to
day’s featured foursome along
with Chandler Harper, the P. G. A.
champion, and Roberto De Vicenzo,
champion of the Argentine.
The second foursome comprises
Jim Ferrier, Jack Burk Jr.,
Henry Ransom and Cary Middle-
coff; the third, Johnny Palmer,
Ed (Porky) Oliver, Clayton. Heaf-
ner and Fred Haas Jr.; and the
fourth, Chick Harbert, Jimmy De-
maret, Herman Barron and A1
Brosch. Claude Harmon is stand
ing by as a spare in case one of
the original 16 has to drop out
for any reason.
The foursomes are rescrambled
for each succeeding round so that,
in the end, each of 16 has played
against each of his 15 opponents—
three to the round. It is entirely
stroke, or medal, play with each
competitor matching his 18-hole
score against his three rivals in
each round.

Chicago’s Pitchers Get Last
Laugh On Rest of League
By JACK HAND
AP Sports Writer
Lou Kretlow, Harry Dorish,
Randy Gumpert and Kenny Hol
combe—Chicago’s waiver waifs—
are making faces red all around
the American League.
Kretlow, who is he? That prob
ably was the man-in-the-street re
action to yesterday’s story on the
blazing White Sox. Still a club—
the Detroit Tigers—once thought
enough of Lou to pay him a $35-
000 bonus to sign off the Enid,
Okla. Army Air Force team.
You could have had Kretlow for
as low as $10,000 a year ago. In
fact, two clubs did have him for
just that. First the St. Louis
Browns and then the White Sox.
He hadn’t won a game since July
7, 1949. Things were so rough Lou
considered chucking it all for a
career as a pro golfer.
Kretlow’s Record
Kretlow’s .1950 record of 0-2
hai’d ly stamped him as a man who
would boost the White Sox’ league
lead to 4y 2 games. But Manager
Paul Richards seems to have a
way with pitchers.
After yesterday’s neat four-hit
ter against Washington for a 4-2
win, both the Tigers and Brownies
would be glad to welcome him
back.
Dorish, efficient reliefer in nine
games when Chicago pitchers need
ed help, made the rounds before
he hit Comiskey Park. He’s beep
bouncing up and down from minors
to majors with Boston, St. Louis
and Chicago since 1947.
Gumpert Unbeaten
Then there’s Gumpert—Unbeaten
at 4-0. The Athletics had him first
—way back in 1936-37-38. They
letmim get away to the Yankee
Chain. New York found Randy use
ful in 1946 and 1947. But in July
1948 off he went to the White Sox
—at the waiver price.
Holcombe didn’t stick long
enough for waivers with most ofdiving catch of a liner by Lou
the clubs. But at various times,
between trips to the minors, he
belonged to the Yankees, Cincin
nati and White Sox.
With a staggering 19-out-of-21
pace, the Sox are gradually pulling
away from the pack while the
Yanks and Red Sox fizzle. They
handed Connie Marrero his second
loss behind Kretlow’s strong pitch
ing. Lou mowed down the last 10
men in order to close out his first
complete game. He drove in the
winning run in a two-run fourth.
Rizzuto’s Error Hurts
A fumble by usually dependable
Phil Rizzuto cost the Yankees a
5-4 loss to the lowly St. Louis
Brownies. Behind 4-2 going to the
ninth, the Browns tied the score on
two triples and a single. Then with
men on first and second Bob Young
grounded to second baseman Billy
Martin who flipped the ball to
Rizzuto. But Rizzuto dropped the
ball when Jim Delsing ran' into
him, Johnny Bero scoring from
second.
Detroit 6, Boston 4
Detroit lowered the boom on
Boston, 6-4, for the Red Sox’s
fifth straight loss. George Kell’s
Boudreau with the bases full in
the ninth stopped a Sox rally. Even
in defeat, Dom DiMaggio kept his
batting streak alive, hitting safely
in his 26th consecutive game.
Philadelphia 4, Cleveland 3
Alex Kellner handed Cleveland
its second straight loss after nine
straight wins with a seven-hitter
as Philadelphia ripped into Bob
Chakales for a 4-3 margin.
Brooks 3, Cards 2
Brooklyn opened up another
length on the field in the National,
edging St. Louis, 3-2, in a game
finished under protest by Manager
Marty Marion of the Cards. The
defeat left the Cards 5y 2 games
back of the Dodgers.
Marion protested because Chuck
Dressen, Brook manager, sat in a
box seat behind the Dodger bench
after he was chased for arguing
with Umpire Art Gore.
Big Ralph Branca, back on the
beam 1 as a regular starter, threw
his third straight complete game,
scattering seven hits. Roy Campa
nella drove in all the runs with a
two-run homer in the second and
a fly ball in the fourth.
Reds Foil Giants
Brownies Need 3
Men Like Carver
St. Louis, June 7—(A 5 )—If Ned
Carver were triplets the Browns
would be in the American League’s
first division today—maybe in
first place.
Of the 14 games won by the
Browns this season, Ned has eight
victories. Of the 32 losses, Ned
went down three times.
There is only one Carver so the
Browns still wallow at the bottom
of the pit.
Ned passes off his remarkable
record modestly, giving his team
mates most of the credit.
Cincinnati foiled the New York
Giants by scoring three in the
ninth to win, 5-4. Pinch hitter
Grady Hatton slugged across the
tying and 'winning scores with a
single.
Braves 5, Pirates 2
Warren Spahn snapped Boston’s
five-game losing Streak with a
five-hitter against Pittsburgh, 5-2.
Ralph Kiner hit his 13th homer for
the Pirates.
Phillies 9, Cubs 1
The Phillies cut loose on Bob
Schultz, Cal McLish and Johnny
Schmitz with 18 hits to smother
Chicago, 9-1. Robin Roberts allowed
only three hits—all to catcher
Smoky Burgess.
