WEDNESDAY, APRIL 16, 1952 THE MICHIGAN DAILY PAGE _ Browns, Do dgers Garver Blanks Tigers, 3-0; T Cleveland, Boston Triumph i Win Openers, Red Wings Snare Stanley Cup as Sawehuk Stops 33 Montreal Shots for 3-0 Decision Brooklyn Edges Braves, 3-2; Cubs Squeeze by Reds, 6-5 r. ,Y By TED PAPES Daily Sports Editor DETROIT - (Special) -- Ned Garver's pitching wizardry sent the St. Louis Browns off to a fly- ing start in the American League pennant race yesterday with a masterful 3-0 shutout of the De- troit Tigers before 43,112 Briggs Stadium fans. The Brownie star, who had a 20-12 record last season, set the Tigers down on six hits while fan- ning nine batters and walking only one. HE ALSO collectedstwo singles off Dizzy Trout, the starting and losing Detroit moundsman, the second hit driving home a St. Louis run. Queen Juliana and Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands were guests of the Tiger man- agement for two innings. They watched as Detroit threatened to score in the sixth, but con- secutive singles by George Kell and Ben Taylor were wasted as Garver worked himself out of danger with his strikeout ball. Trout also turned in a good mound performance, allowing only five hits in his eight-inning so- journ, but a pair of two-base hits cost him two runs.4 * * * BROWNIE SHORTSTOP Marty Marion led off the fourth with a double, went to third on Jim Ri- vera's screaming single to left, and scored as Tom Wright hit into a double play. With one down in the fifth, Leo Thomas levelled off on Trout for another two-bagger and came home on Garver's slash to right field. That gave the Browns a 2-0 margin which was more than adequate in view of De- troit's helplessness at the plate. The final St. Louis run came off ,r The Tigers had one other up- rising besides their sixth inning demonstration for royalty, but it too failed to produce a run. After Vic Wertz had fanned to open the bottom half of the sec-j ond, Pat Mullin dropped a looping fly into short center for the first hit off Garver. Cliff Mapes fol- lowed with a sharp single to left, sending Mullin to third, but he died there as Matt Matts struck out and Jerry Priddy tapped weak- ly to the infield. INDIANS 3, CHISOX 2 CHICAGO-(AP)-The Cleveland Indians and the Chicago White Sox each made 6 hits, but the Tribe's Early Wynn was a mite better than Sox southpaw Billy Pierce to score a 3 to 2 opening day verdict before 25,037 at Com- iskey Park yesterday. Wynn never was in real trouble, but got a scare from a ninth inn- ing home run by catcher Sherman Lollar, acquired by the Sox from the St. Louis Browns. Wynn, who fashioned a 20-13 record last year, did not yield a hit until the fourth when the Sox wasted -singles by Nellie Fox and Minnie Minoso which were nulli- fied by a double play. RED SOX 3, NATS 0 WASHINGTON--(R)-A couple of eminent lefthanders, Harry S. Truman and Mel Parnell, got the baseball season and the Boston Red Sox away to a successful start yesterda'. Parnell pitched beautiful three- hit ball to stop the Washington Senators completely, 3 to 0. * * * THE BIG MEN in the Boston hitting department: Walt Dropo, big Red Sox first baseman, whose double to the left field fence drove in two runs in the sixth inning. Ted Williams, Boston's fine outfielder who will go into the Marines May 2. His tremendous triple to centerfield in the eighth led t% the third Red Sox run * * * YANKS, A's - RAIN PHILADELPHIA - (P) - Shibe Park records which date back to 1925 fail to show an opening day cancellation for the Philadelphia Athletics, but 89-year-old Connie Mack says there was one. Mack couldn't remember the date, but he was sure yesterday's Athletics- New York Yankees opening day rainout wasn't the first here. SPRING IN i5lXIE: Wolverine Trackmen Shine, Then Fade in Southern Trip By The Associated Press BOSTON-Timely hitting by catcher Roy Campanella and Billy Cox enabled southpaw Preacher Roe to pitch the Brooklyn Dodg- ers to a 3-2 opening game victory over the Boston Braves yesterday under adverse weather conditions. Campanella, who clouted three of the 11 Dodger hits against left- hander Warren Spahn, delivered a bases-loaded single while the Dodgers were doing all of their scoring in the fifth inning. * Y* * THE DODGERS came up to that frame trailing by a run, the re- I By JOHN JENKS Michigan's track team was spring itself during its tour of Dixie last week-it went in like a lion and came out like a lamb. The thinclads swept through their first engagement, the South- ern Relays, like Sherman swept through Georgia, but their per- formance in the Arkansas Relays a week later gave the impression that the South will rise again. THOUGH NO TEAM title is awarded in the Birmingham, Ala- bama meet, Michigan's five firsts and a second there put them well out in front with 28 points, eight better than runner-up LSU. Towering Milt Mead soared 6 feet 6114 inches to cop high jump laurels, edging' NCAA champ J. Lewis Hall by an inch. Big Fritz Nilsson contributed a first and a second to the good cause, but the Svanno Sweetie had trouble with Auburn's Jim Dillon, NCAA discus champ, NILSSON TOSSED the shot 53 feet 10 inches to best Dillon by three feet in the event, but in the discus Dillon set a new Relays record with a 171 feet 4% inch effort. Nilsson's mark of 164 feet 3%V inches was good enough for second. The Wolverines' mile relay team of Dan Hickman, Bill Kon- rad, Jack Carroll and Al Ran- kin turned in a 3:21 time while taking the event. Carroll, Hickman, John Ross and Don McEwen combined their talents to win the distance medley relay, navigating the muddy, wind-swept track in 10:17.7. The other Maize and Blue first came from Bill Hickman in the two mile run. His time: 9:49.3. * .. ENCOURAGED BY their first appearance outdoors, the thinclads headed for the home of Ozark Ike to begin a week's practice under the sun in preparation for the Arkansas Relays. But typical Ann Arbor weath- er put a damper on their spirits. It rained all but one day of the six they were in Fayetteville, and the track, though usually superb, was extremely loggy at meet time. Ard so were the Wolverines. Only Van Bruner turned in a really impressive performance. Bruner sailed over the 120 yard high hurdles in 14.5 seconds to easily capture first. * * * TEAMMATE Wally Atchison followed Bruner across the pay dirt line. Although Nilsson won both the shot and discus events, his efforts were very average for him, but still good enough to set meet records in both events.' His best shot toss was a 50 feet 10 5/8 inches mark, while his final result in the discus was 153 feet 8 3/4 inches. ROY CAMPANELLA *.. Brooklyn batting star I sult of Sam Jethroe's home run in the third inning. Spahn had given up only three hits before Gil Hodges opened the fifth by drilling a single to left field. Carl Furillo followed with a hard smash that second baseman Billy Reed did well to knock down. Thereupon Spahn got Roe on a third strike foul bunt and Pee Wee Reese lined out to right. Cox then scored Hodges with a single to left. Spahn loaded the bases by walking Jackie Robinson to set the stage for Campanella's game- winning single to right field. It was hit so sharply that Cox and Furillo merely had to romp across the plate. * * * THE BRAVES registered their second counter in the bottom of the fifth when, with two out, Earl Torgeson lashed a two-bagger into right field and Sid Gordon fol- lowed with a single in the same general direction. Roe had little trouble with the Tribesmen from then on. He set down the last 13 rival batters to face him. CUBS 6, REDS 5 CINCINNATI -- The Chicago Cubs blew a five-run lead yes- terday, then had to go into the 10th inning before Gene Herman- ski's pinch hit single gave them a 6-5 victory over the Cincinnati Reds in the National League open- er. A crowd of 28,517, wrapped in blankets and overcoats and with sporadic bonfires burning in the bleachers temporary seats, saw the Reds drop the initial game of the season for the third straight year. ** * THE BRUINS built their fat lead on home runs off Herman Wehmeier, the home town boy who said before the game he had lived for this day since he was a child. Ransom Jackson got a homer in the second, and Hank Sauer- former Red player-blasted one over the center field wall with the bases loaded in the third. After that the Cubs were help- less before succeeding pitchers Harry Perkowski and Frank Hil- ler, until the tenth. OTHER NL GAMES Cards 3, Pirates 2 (night) Braves at Giants (rain) Special To The Daily KDETROIT -- The Detroit Red Wings became the only team in National Hockey League history to win the Stanley Cup without losing a playoff game by trounc- ing the Montreal Canadiens, 3-0, in Olympia last night. The whitewash was the fourth - all at Olympia -in the eight game series for goalie Terry Saw- chuk, who now joins Ranger Dave Kerr and Toronto's Frank Mc- Cool as possessors of the most shutouts in a Cup series. Saw- chuk turned aside 33 Montreall blasts. SHARING honors in the finale with Sawchuk was Metro Prystai. Marvelous Metro tallied twice, once in the first and again in the third period. He also assisted Glen Skov's second stanza marker. Prystai beat Montreal's Butch Bouchard to the puck at center and soloed the rest of the way in on Gerry McNeil to score De- troit's third goal while Montreal was concentrating on beating Sawchuk. The 14,545 partisan fans showed their appreciation by showering the ice with everything from , {' I TERRY SAWCHUK S.. fourth Cup shutout * * * cheers to u dead octopus as the Red Wings staged a dramatic third-period battle to save Saw- chuk's shutout. The youthful De- troit goalie three times saw his masterpiece almost whiz away on tries by Maurice Richard, Dickie Moore, and Bud MacPherson in the final 20 minutes. WITH RICHARD sitting out the final ten seconds of a penalty, Prystai made the Red Wing power play click at 6:50 of the initial stanza for the first goal of the game. Prystai converted a perfect set up by Alex Del Vecchio from behind the cage. Some great net minding by Montreal's Gerry McNeil kept the score from mounting. He stopped 16 shots to nine for Saw- chuk, who twice robbed a seeth- ing Moore with diving saves. The second stanza saw each goalie make seven stops. Richard had only to hoist the rubber over the fallen Sawchuk to tie the score midway through the period, but The Rocket fired over the cage. Then with 20 seconds left in the period Glen Skov batted in Prys- tai's rebound to make it 2-0, De- troit, and set the stage for the Wings' dramatic kitty - bar - the - door effort to preserve the shut- out.

Two fielder's choices and a strike- out got Stuart out of further trouble. By 'ED WHIPPLE The Michigan tennis team's spring swing South produced nothing more significant than six pairs of muddy shoes and a split of two dual meets. "No surprises, pleasant or other wise," Coach Bill Murphy reported yesterday as he watched his net- ters in a wind-whipped workout on the Ferry Field courts for the first time this year. The Wolver- ines were sporting footwear still stained with red clay from prac- tice courts in Georgia. PLAYING MINUS lettermen Steve Bromberg, Gene Barrack, and Jack Smart, the Murphymen in Florida trounced Florida State, 7-2, in a series of extra-long matches, and absorbed a 9-0 set- back from a Rollins College team that boasts several Mexican Davis Cup stars. For the two meets Murphy played Mike Schwartz, Bob Cur- han, Al Mann, Jay Webb, Jim Stevens, and Jim Holtz in singles berths one through six, respectively, but yesterday the Wolverine mentor indicated most positions are still unset- tiled.

I .r WE ASKED GRADUATES TEN YEARS OUT OF COLLEGE: WHAT MADE YOU DECIDE ON A CAREER WITH GENERAL ELECTRIC? W .. 4444WKK This advertisement was written by G-E employees who graduated ten years ago--long enough to have gained perspective, but not too long to have forgotten the de- tails of their coming with the Company. These graduates were sent a questionnaire and were requested to return it unsigned. Their answers, listed below in order of mentions, give an informative appraisal of G.E. as a place to work and as a source of career opportunities. I 1. G-E TRAINING PROGRAMS Sample quotes: "I knew that G.'. offered the best train- ing courses." "Liked the idea of rotating assignments and courses." "Wanted to take advantage of the training courses." "G.E. had a training plan which would let me choose a job after reasonable time for investigating jobs available in the Company." "I felt that Test (Test Engi- neering Program) would make the easiest transition from school to work." "I felt that I would get the best kind of electrical engineering training if I went with G.E." "The Test course appealed to me because of its combina- tion of continued technical instruction plus practical ex perience on the test floor." 2. VARIETY OF OPPORTUNITIES "Why does a youngster run away with a circus?" "Believed it was a good chance to find the field I liked best as I wasn't quite sure what type of work I wanted to get into." "G.E. goes out of its way to find the corner you are happiest in and best suited for." "The varied opportunities of work let you change jobs without leaving the company." "Only company which offered a job where an engineer could be in on design, sales and appli- cation-i.e., 'application engineering.' " "Promise of varied experience made it unnecessary to decide on a particular specialty until I had more opportunity to look the field over." 3. GENERAL ELECTRIC'S REPUTATION "G.E. 's prestige and reputation appealed to me." "G.. was more favorably disposed to the coming war effort and was doing work directly contributory." "High caliber persons with whom to work." "Reputation for technical excellence." "G.E.'s reputation as a good em- ployer." "Because with the name of G.E. went a sense of security." "I felt that G.E. was the leader in the elctrical field and I wanted to take part." 4. CONSIDERATE TREATMENT "The only offer I received was from General Electric -other companies interviewed would not consider me because of my reserve officer status." "Among the corn- panics offering jobs to college graduates in 1941, G.E. seemed to take more of a personal interest in its new men." "The G-E representatives made me feel they were interested in me." Ushered into a new world, I had a bustling, brawling, bruising youth. I was a potential giant awakening in a world of giants. People were hurt when I first stirred in life; Then I grew and learned; Then I matured and knew that Though I work with water and metal and chemicals and fire, I am more than these things. I am the people's work! I am the people's dream! Iam the people! With maturity, I have grown, too, in social responsibility, To the people, To AmericaI And even to those beyond our shores. My efforts are not in selfish interest; Rather, all my brain and brawn strives for the good of the many. Iam the American way! Now, I have sworn that these things shall be: I shall deliver ever-better products to those who use my fruits! I shall offer equal opportunity to those who work at my side Whatever their race! Whatever their creed! Whatever their colort Whatever their national origint I shall forever do my part to keep America great! And why? Because only in this way can I remain a healthy force in our free world. For when I am healthy, America prospers And tyrants tremble before my might. <..; z.. .. .. y K. jJJ ...t} ,. ._ ? . tv #:: : : i.>' .?. ti t> . .. .:i.x . I am America's life-blood!
