After failing to score out for four
innings, t he National League All-
Stars hopped on Tex Hughson, ace
Red Sox hurler, and managed to
send four runs across the plate, which
coupled with three runs in the sev-
enth and eighth innings, provided
Billy Southworth's nine with an easy
7-1 victory in the 12th annual All-
Star classic played last night in
Pittsburgh, before a near capacity
crowd of 30,000 fans.
The . junior loop jumped into an
early 1-0 lead as Hank Borowy, the
American League starting flinger,
singled Ken Keltner of the Indians
home with the initial run of the
game. The American Leaguers also
threatened in the first when George
McQuinn and Vern Stephens of the
Browns hit successive singles, but
Walters whiffed Boston's Bob John-
son for the third out.
Connie Ryan of the Braves started
oif the big fifth inning for the Na-
tional Leaguers with a single to cen-

pinch-hitter Bill Nicholson came

Majors Approve
Increased Night
Game Schedule
Arc-Light Tilts Are
Expected to Bring
More Fans to Parks
PITTSBURGH, July 11-(AP)-
Major League baseball moved an-
other step nearer becoming a night
sport today when the National and
American Leagues approved addi-
tional arc light games for clubs de-
siring to take advantage of the
opportunity to draw more fans
through the turnstiles.
Meeting in a three-hour session,
after which 77-year-old Commission-
er K. M. Landis visibly showed the
effects of the intense heat, the
Leagues said any club could play
as many night games as desired, ex-
cept on Sunday, with the approval
of the visiting team. Only Wash-
ington, at present, plays all of its
week-day games under the lights.
Although none of the owners were
sure as to just what use they would
make of the ruling, President Sam.
Breadon of the St. Louis Cardinals
said the National League leaders
probably would play all of its re-
maining week-day games at night.
The St. Louis Browns, however, are
not expected to add more than a
dozen contests.
Officials of the Phillies, Athletics
and White Sox said they would add
more games but would not go all
the way. The Dodgers. Giants, Pi-
rates and Indians also may add a
few more night games.
The Major-minor League agree-
ment, due to expire Jan. 12, 1945,
was extended until Jan. 12, 1946 but
before becoming official must also
be approved by the Minor Leagues.
The Major League pact, under which
Landis has ruled baseball since 1921,
also expires Jan. 12, 1946

Iiakit9 the t$$aft4
By HANK MANTHO
Daily Sports Editor
In recent heralded golf matches all over the country, the names of
Byron Nelson and "Jug" McSpaden could be found on most of the playing
lists,
Nelson and McSpaden, rejected for military duty, are keeping their
clubs in fine trim by performing on behalf of the various war efforts to raise
money whenever and as often as they can.
In three recent exhibition matches, Nelson and Jug raised nearly
$1,000,000 for war relief, and are at present on a tour that will net many
more millions into the fold.
McSpaden so far has one of the greatest winning streaks in the history
of tournament golf, placing in the chips in fourteen out of fifteen events in
which he participated. He missed only in the first Chicago Victory National
at Beverly last August.
In this course of time, Jug has captured the Tam Open, the Los
Angeles, Crosby-Hope, Phoenix and Golfport Opens and the world's
championship encounter at Tam O'Shanter. McSpaden has finished
second on three occasions, third once, and fourth, fifth and sixth once
apiece.
These two experts began their tour at St. Bonaventure College in Little
Olean, N.Y., and in their first appearance, they managed to raise $100,000.
The following match was played in Rochester where the fans bought
$800,000 in war bonds and two spectators payed the astounding price of
$42,000 merely for the privilege of caddying for the day.
To show that their fine sportsmanship, and the great cause which they
are trying to promote has not gone unnoticed, these masters of the greens
played before the largest crowd ever to witness a golf match in the Highland
city course in Indianapolis.
Nelson and McSpaden again began their tour at Omaha today, here
mixing their exhibition matches with tournaments, as they performed
superbly to come out on top again, playing before a children's hospital.
From here this duo will head west to compete in various meets, finally
performing in the All-American Open at Tam O'Shanter.
In present times, with most of the star performers in some service or
other, many athletes that are rejected sink their chins down on their chests
and feel self-conscious and down in the dumps beoause they can't join their
comrades in arms.
This kind of an attitude would never solve any problems, and chances
are that in their present states of mind, not only would they be useless to
themselves, but to the war effort, from whence this feeling could originally
be traced.
It is men like Lord Byron and Jug, who have the courage to accept
their fate, and without bemoaning everything that they can think of for
their dilemma, they pulled their clubs out of hock and did the best thing
that they knew how.
And Agardless of what these men think of their chosen tasks, I'll
venture to 'say that the money which is being accumulated by their per-
formances, will go much farther to aid their cause than if they had actually
donned a service uniform.

Notre Dame and
Purdue Begin
grid .Practices
INDIANAPOLIS, July 11-(AP)-
Upon a pair of fledgling coaches, each
making his first start as a college
football chief-of-staff, and four let-
termen will fall the task this season
of bringing Notre Dame and Purdue
back for an encore in the collegiate
grid limelight they focused on Indi-.
ana last year.
Such, at least, was the situation as
Purdue began summer drills yes-
terday and Notre Dame prepared to
open a three-week session July 17.
At Notre Dame, the 1943 mythical
national champions will rely on
coach Ed McKeever, backfield assist-
ant to Frank Leahy last fall and who
advanced to the command after
Leahy entered the Navy this spring,
and semi-veterans Bob Kelly and
George Sullivan. Kelly, a naval
trainee, became eligible midway in
the 1943 campaign and saw exten-
sive service athalfback.aSullivan
played with the shock-troops as a
tackle.
Cecil Isbell, another backfield
boss moved into the driver's seat this
year by the resignation of Elmer
Burnham, will direct Purdue's bill
to retain the Western Conference
title it shared with Michigan's Wol-
verines last season.
Isbell will be aided by only Boris
Dimancheff, halfback, and Frank
Bauman, end, from the unbeaten
1943 machine. The rest of the squad
will be composed of an undeter-
mined number of Navy and Marine
gridders.
