Sport Struggle May Kill Games
NEW YOEK — Many of
the smaller nations of the world
fear the titanic athletic struggle
between the United States and
-Russia—if not arrested—may ulti
mately kill the Olympic Games the
president of the International
Olympic Committee said Wednes
day.
Avery Brundage of Chicago said
this probably will be among the
problems discussed at a six day
series of Olympic conferences at
Evian, France, beginning June 3.
“Understand, I don’t share such
fears because I feel we can take
whatever measures are necessary
before it gets out of hand.

SOX
4-Homer Inning
Equals AL
BOSTON, —^— Boston cracked out a record — tying
four home runs in an inning including Ted Williams’ 10th
Wednesday as the revived Red Sox battered Cleveland, 11-0.
Right hander Tom Brewer checked the Indians on four hits
for his sixth triumph.
Gene Mauich, Williams, Dick Gernert and Frank Malzone
connected for the homers in the sixth inning off Cal McLish
to equal an American League mark the Sox set in 1940.
Williams was a party to that barrage in Philadelphia,
too, on Sept. 24. He was followed by Jimmy Foxx, Joe Cron
in and Jim Tabor.
Detroit’s Dizzy Trout, Gerry Priddy, Vic Wertz and Hoot
Evers duplicated the feat in . ,
■' — „ split of their two game
1950. Wertz currently is with
Cleveland.
The major league standard
for an inning is five held
jointly by the New York Giants
1939 and Philadelphia Phillies 1949.
NEW YORK—The league lead
ing Chicago White Sox sped to
their ninth straight victory yester
day, 8-4, with the help of three
New York Yankee errors, includ
ing a dropped fly by Mickey Man
tle.
Chicago ripped into Yankee
pitching for 11 hits, including Nel
lie Fox’s second homer of the sea
son. The sweep of the two game
series left Manager A1 Lopez’
White Sox four full games ahead
of the third place Yanks, who were
supposed to run away from the
American League. Second place
Cleveland trails by three games.
CHICAGO — The New York
Giants rewarded Alan Worthing
ton’s stout relief pitching Wednes
day with a ninth inning run that
beat the Chicago Cubs, 4-3, and
gained a
series.
Starter Ruben Gomez was lifted
following Bobby Morgan’s lead off
single in the seventh, and Worth
ington yielded only one hit working
the final three innings to earn his
third win against as many losses.
WASHINGTON — G u s Zernial
crashed two homers to provide
most of the power as Kansas City
belted Washington, 8-6, in a bat
ting jamboree yesterday in top
coat weather at Griffith Stadium.
Zernial drove in three runs with
his blasts, two in the opening in
ning, to send the A’s winging to
their first triumph in four games.
Vic Power of the A’s, Jim Lem
on and Roy Sievers nf the Sena
tors also hit home runs.
MILWAUKEE — Chuck Tanner
drilled his first home run of the
season, a long drive over the right
field fence in the 13th inning last
night to give the Milwaukee Braves
a 4-3 victory over the Philadelphia
Phillies and Robin Roberts who had
gone all the way.
Tigers’ Tighe Says
Yanks ‘Can be Taken’
BALTIMORE, (ZP).—Jack Tighe, rookie manager of the
Detroit Tigers, echoed the confident feeling yesterday of
Chicago’s A1 Lopez that the New York Yankees “can be
taken” this season.
“They have some fellows who are getting a little old,
and Casey Stengel tells me a couple are getting too content,”
Tighe said today. “That’s
something new on the Yank
ees—contentment.”
Lopez, in the same vein,
yesterday described the
champions as “stagnant.”
“They’re not nearly as tough as
last year,” in the opinion of Tighe
who is in his first year of major
league managing.
“Their pitching on the whole
is still pretty good, but it’s not
as sharp. Their bench is nothing
near as terrifying as in past
years. In other years, they had
real wallopers to throw at you
late in the game.”

The 43-year-old Detroit manager
said he felt no qualms about chang
ing pitchers when the Yankees had
the bases loaded and only one out
last Saturday.
“I brought in a southpaw and
Andy Carey hit into a double
play.” He said he would have been
apprehensive in the past when the
Yanks had such pinch hitters as
Bob Cerv.

Cats Boast Hitters, Steers
Hare Pitching in Playoffs
AUSTIN, —hT)— Arizona has
the hitting and Texas boasts the
pitching, and the NCAA play-off
scheduled here May 31 to June 4
should be a lot of baseball.
Texas, only school ever to win
the national title twice, will be
seeking to return to the big show
at Omaho, Neb., after an absence
of two years.

Fined $1,000
For Violations
SPOKANE, UP). — South
ern California and the Uni
versity of Idaho were fined
$1,000 each Wednesday for
violations of the Pacific Coast
Conference athletic code.
No other schools in the nine
member conference were fined.
Dr. Glenn Seaborg of California,
conference spokesman, said the
conference had changed its fining
system so that penalties were as
sessed only for “substantial viola
tions.”
Southern California was penal
ized for “statements by a basket
ball coach during and after a con
ference basketball game during
the past season.”
Idaho was nicked for “illegal in-
tei’views of prospective students
by a track coach.”
three years in a row and last year
was runner up to champion Min
nesota.
The Wildcats come here with a
blustery .368 club batting’ record,
and the season mark of 34 vic
tories against 10 losses makes
Arizona the busiest team in Col
lege baseball. The Wildcats have
averaged 11.2 runs per game.
But Texas has one of the finest
pitching staffs in its history. The
Longhorn twirlers have an earned
run average of 2.60 with Howard
Reed, ace of the staff, boasting
a 7-0 record and an earned run
average of 1.58. Harry Taylor,
the next Texas pitcher, has won 6
and lost 1 and his average is 2.17.
Playing to represent District 6
in the NCAA, Texas, the South
west Conference Champion, and
Arizona, the Border Conference
king, will meet the night of May
31, play the second game June 3
and the third game if needed June
4 in the afternoon.
