PHILADELPHIA, July 29-Lit-
tle Ralph Caballero paced an 11-
hit attack with three safeties that
drove in three runs today as the
Philadelphians took the rubber
game of the three-game series
from the Chicago Cubs 7-4..
The Cubs 'made 15 hits and
drove Schoolboy Rowe from the
mound in the eighth but they
were unable to bunch their safe-
ties, leaving 10 men stranded on
the bases. Walt Dubiel relieved
Rowe.
Andy Seminick hit his third
home run in as many days for the
Phils.

NEW YORK, July 29-New
York's supposedly inept hurlers,
acting up like a bunch of Carl
Hubbells, hung their third
straight shutout on Cincinnati
today as lefty Dave Koslo
blanked the Reds, 5-0.
Big Walker Cooper supplied
the punch that enabled Koslo
to rack up his sixth victory
against five defeats. The catch-
er poled a homer with the bases
loaded to climax a five-run first
inning.
* * *
BOSTON, July 29-Big Bill
Voiselle managed to weather sev-
eral dangerous situations today
and pitched the National League's
front running Braves to a 2-1
triumph over, the Pittsburgh Pir-
ates, his first over the Bucs in the
last two seasons.
Not only did the deliberate;
Voiselle twirl his 11th victory of
the season but he got one of his
rare hits and drove in what proved
to be the winning run in the sec-
ond inning.
Voiselle's hit, a bouncing sin-
gle through an indrawn infield,
was his fifth of the year and
raised his batting average to
.097.j
It brought many laughing
cheers from a ladies' and boys'
day crowd of 23,129, of whom
12,813 paid.-
The Tribe got a quick run in1
the opening inning, which,
Tommy Holmes started by arch-t
ing a double off the base of the
left center field wall.
Tommy hustled to third after
Al Dark flied out to right and,

scored after.Earl Torgeson flied
out to center.
The Tribe could fashion only
one run on four hits and a base on
balls in the second inning when
the starting, and losing, Mel
Queen was derricked in favor of
Kirby Higbe.
The Pirates' lone tally came in
the third, which Eddie Buckman
began by lining a double down the
left field foul line. Dixie Walker
beat out an infield hit which
moved Bockman to third and
Ralph Kiner laced a single into
left center field which scored
Bockman.

BROOKLYN, July 29-Home
runs by Roy Campanella and
Gil Hodges led the Brooklyn
Dodgers to a third straight win
over St. Louis today, 9-6, drop-
ping the Cardinals into fourth
place.
Campanella's clout came with
two men on in the first inning
attack on loser Murry Dickson.
Then, after the Cards had bat-
tled back against Rex Barney
to tie the score, Hodges slammed
his eighth homer of the year on
a 3-0 pitch with a man on base.
H aefner Leads
Hogan in W.O
BUFFALO, N.Y., July 29-(/P)-
Clayton Heafner, husky profes-
sional from Charlotte, N.C., set
the pace today in the opening
round of the 45th Western Open
Golf Championship.
Heafner fashioned a scintillat-
ing 34-32-66, six under par, over
Brookfield Country Club's well-
trapped and lheavily treed terrain
to take a one-stroke edge over
Ben Hogan of Hershey, Pa., in the
first 18-hole stretch of the 72-hole
four-day medal play test.
Scores 6 Birdies
Six birdies adorned the big
Southerner's card and he played
the other 12 holes in par as he
wheeled away in front, in quest,
of the $2,500 first prize in the
$15,000 event.
Hogan, the year's leading money;
winner, and holder of the National
Open and PGA crowns, also had
six birdies but lost the chance to
deadlock for the lead by three-put-
ting the 225-yard par three 15th

OLYMPIC STADIUM, Wembley,
England, July 29-(I)-The United
States and Czechoslovakia are ex-
pected tohshare thehonors to-
morrow when the track and field
competition of the Olympics opens
full blast.
Two champions are destined to
be crowned before dinner and
from all advance data and train-
ing camp reports the U.S. should
capture the high jump gold medal
and the Czechs should romp off

a burning sun.
Then as the vast stadium be-
came hushed, the King, his
Queen standing beside him, ut-
tered the traditional words:
"I proclaim open the Olympic
Games of London celebrating
the 14th Olympiad of the mod-
ern era."
Seven thousand pigeons were
released to whir aloft, cannon out-
side the arena thundered a 21-gun
salute, and through the east por-
tal raced a tall blond athlete car-
rying the Olympic Flame which
had been kindled 12 days before in
the village of Olympia in Greece.
The last of the hundreds of
runners who had borne it 3,000
miles across Europe circled the
red track once, then mounted a
platform at the stadium's east end
and dipped it into the Olympic
peristyle. The crowd loosed a
mighty cheer as a yellow flame
leaped up, to burn steadily
through the 16 days of the games.
A choir of 12,000 voices sang
Handel's beautiful "Hallelujah"
Chorus, accompanied by a
massed band of gardsmen. The
athletes who had stood in ranks
on the green infield through the
ceremony paraded back out of
the stadium to scatter to their
distant quarters and await the
start of competition tomorrow.
If the weather remains as it
was today-89 degrees at mid-af-
ternoon-it will be one of the hot-
test Olympics ever.
Spectators collapsed and were
carried out of the stadium at a
ratie of one a minute during the
ceremonies, and toward the end
three Boy Scouts who had carried
the banners of the nations pitched
forward on their faces and re-
ceived treatment in the infield.
Most of the athletes who will
participate in the games stood
and marched long hours despite
the sun but the 100-yard dash
men who will try to qualify in
tomorrow's opening heats of
that event were excused. The

OLYMPIC STADIUM, WEMBLEY, England, July 29-(AP)-King
George VI of England opened the Olympic Games today in a majestic
and inspiring spectacle at this stadium where for the next fortnight
the athletic youth of the world will compete for glory.
For 50 minutes the slender monarch stood at almost constant sa-
lute while 6,000 representatives of 58 nations streamed past the royal
box in the colorful Olympic parade and 75,000 spectators sweltered in

only sport scheduled to begin
tonight was water polo in the
Wembley Pool.
Shortly before the opening cere-
monies began, Coach Dean Crom-
well of the American Track and
Field forces loosed a statement as
scorching as the weather.
He denied bitingly a, published
report that there was dissension
among the American sprinters be-
cause he had spent more time
training Mel Patton, one of his
own University of Southern Cali-
fornia stars, than he had on Bar-
ney Ewell and Harrison Dillard.
He called the report "utter'<y
ridiculous," and said his critics
had "gone a long way to dig up
dirt."
He added that no "coach on
earth could have been more
careful than we have to get
away from discrimination.'"
No visiting team in the opening
parade received a greater hand
than the big American delegation
which, because of its alphabetical
rating, was near the end of the
marching order. Long before the
Americans reached the saluting
point before the King, the crowd
was standing and cheering them
on.
While the standard bearers of
many nations dipped their flags
in salute to the British Monarch,
the American bearer did not. It
just isn't done with the U.S.
flag.
It was disclosed after the cere-
monies that the "perfect English
athlete" who had carried the
torch into the stadium was John
Mark, a former all-around athlete
at Cambridge University. His
identity had been a carefully hid-
den secret. He did the job well.
All in all, it was a spectacle to
be remembered. The pageantry
was infinitely more impressive
than that which opened the last
previous games at Berlin in
1936.
