Chappuis to Get Reported
$60,000 from Brooklyn Team

By IRWIN ZUCKER
(Special to The Daily)
BROOKLYN, N.Y., June 30 -
There - is plenty of joy in this
sports-crazy town over the sign-
ing of Bob Chappuis by Brooklyn's
football Dodgers. I
Nary a Flatbush follower ex-
pected the ex-Wolverine back to
join the Dodger fold.
In fact, three national maga-
zines were processing articles
about how Chappuis was going
to make the Pittsburgh Steelers
a pennant threat in the Na-
tional Football League. But the
shifty All-American crossed 'em
2' up by inking a two-year Dodger
contract.
Branch Rickey, Brooklyn's grid
monarch, who coached Michigan's
baseball team three decades ago,
had to pay dearly for Chappuis to
outbid the Steeler's attractive
bonus salary. No terms were an-
nounced, but insiders here say that
the 24-year-old rookie will collect
a total of $60,000 in salary plus
bonus for the two campaigns-as
well as aid in his planned radio
annouxncing career.
One New York writer described
Coach Carl Voyles as "the happi-
est man since someone told Jack
Benny he looked 39."
Little wonder-for the Dodger
mentor feels that The Chap "is
the finest passer in the business
.i for us." Voyles plans to use Bob,
in the same type of single wing
plus winged-T offense in which
he excelled at Michigan under
Fritz Crisler.
The Brooks have signed several
star college ends-Hank Foldberg,
Dan Edwards and Tony Yovicson
-with an eye for good targets for
Chappuis' passes.
Black-haired Bob was first

drafter by the champion Cleveland
Browns of the AAC. However,
Rickey took over the Dodgers last
winter and cleared the way for the
annexation of Chappuis by surren-
dering half-back Dud Jones in
part payment for the draft rights
of the Michigan ace.
Brooklyn received the rights
to Chappuis under an agree-
ment wheriby the weak clubs of
the Conference were to be
strengthened.
In the bargaining sessions that
followed, it appeared as if the
Steelers had Bob practically
wrapped and sealed for delivery.

But Brooklyn is a land ,of
prises-and bigger bundles of
and promises.

NEW YORK, June 30-(AP)-
President Ford Frick of the Na-
tional League today fined Pitts-
burgh Manager Bill Meyer $50
and pitcher Kirby Higbe and
trainer Charles Jorgensen $25
each as the result of an argument
during the Pirates' game at Cin-
cinnati last night.
Frick said Meyer had been fined
"for violent and profane lan-
guage." Higbe drew his punish-
ment for throwing a bat in the
air.
The trainer was fined, Frick
said, because "he mixed in an ar-
gument that was none of his busi-
ness."

By The Associated Press
Jack Kramer posted his seventh
victory of the season today and
his fifth in a row, pitching the
Boston Red Sox to a 7-3 seven hit
triumph over the New York Yan-
kees.
Kramer got off to a rocky start,
yielding two runs in the first in-
ning but thereafter he muffled the
Yankee bats on three hits until
the ninth when they scored their
final run on a double and a sin-
gle. Kramer walked only three
and fanned six including the side
in the ninth.
Vern Stephens led the Sox ten-
hit assault against three Yankee
pitchers by driving in five runs on
a homer, single and two flyouts.
Vic Raschi, boasting a nine
game winning streak, started for
the Yankees and the Sox promptly
slugged him for two runs in the
first inning.
Ted Williams' single in the third
was his only hit of the game in five
tries but it enabled him to stretch
his consecutive game knitting
streak to 16.
The Chicago Cubs lashed out
from their lowly cellar position
with unexpected fury today when
they made it two straight over the
St. Louis Cardinals with a deci-
sive 9-1 victory.
Ralph Hamner scattered six hits
while his mates pounded Jim
Hearn and four successors for 13
solid wallops. One of the blows

that knocked Hearn out of the box
in the third innings was Gene
Muach's first major league home
run. It came with one aboard.
The frail-looking Hamner
fanned eight while registering his
third victory in five starts. He was
in serious trouble only once and
that was due to a lapse of control.
He walked the first three Cardi-
nals to face him in the sixth, but
only one, Stan Musial, tallied on a
long fly by Don Lang.
The Philadelphia Phillies took
advantage of 12 walks today to
hand the Brooklyn Dodgers their
fourth straight defeat, 13-4.
The victory cost the Phils the
services of Dutch Leonard, their
veteran knuckleball artist, for an
indefinite period. Leonard was
struck on the head in the third in-
ning by one of Harry Taylor's
pitches and was carried from the
field. He was rushed to Swedish
Hospital where it was said he ad
suffered no fracture but would be
hospitalized four days.

Converted Outfielder Walks Only Three;
Houtte>lan Is Tagged With 10th Loss ,
DETROIT, June 30-(/P)-Big Bob Lemon, who wasn't good enough
to be an outfielder or a third baseman for the Cleveland Indians,
pitched the first no-hit, no-run game of the Major League season to-
night as he blanked the Detroit Tigers 2 to 0.
The 27-year-old righthander, who now sports a record of 11
wins and six losses, almost had a perfect game as only three Tigers

reached base, all on walks.
A crowd of 49;628 sat tensely
game as Lemon worked methodi-
cally towards the goal of every
Major League twirler.
When the final Tiger out was
made on a toss from Lemon to first
baseman Johnny Berardino, they
gave Lemon a tremendous ovation..
His teammates raced to Lem-
on's side, with Manager Lou
Boudreau the first to reach him
and hug him enthusiastically.
Hundreds of fans rushed out
onto the field to shake Lemon's
hand, but a cordon of police and
players rushed the big pitcher
to the Cleveland dressing room.
Lemon was the calmest person
in the room as players, newspaper-
men and a few spectators jammed
into the small space to discuss his
no-hit, no-run game-the first in a
Detroit Major League ball park
since 1922.
Queried as to whether he knew
that he was bidding for a no-hit-
ter as the game progressed, Lem-
on said: "The fellows on the bench
wouldn't talk to me from the sixth
inning on. I thought at the time it
was funny, but didn't quite know
what was happening. Boy, oh boy,
what a thrill it was when that last
out was made...."
All the scoring came in the
first inning as the Indians
pushed over two unearned runs
to give Lemon a headstart. It
was all the big righthander
needed, as he had the Tigers
swinging futilely for the rest of
the distance.

Wimbledon Finals
LONDON, June 30-(P)-Bob
Falkenburg of Hollywood, Calif.,
and Jack -Bromwich of Australia
stumbled into the finals of the
men's championships at Wimble-
don today. They won two semi-
final exhibitions as bad as the old
place ever saw.
Falkenburg took just one hour
and 15 minutes to polish off
Gardnar Mulloy of Miami, Fla.,
6-4, 6-4, 8-6. The Florida veteran
not only was sadly off his game
but he had no luck, which made it
worse.

through the latter innings of the
It was a tough loss for Art
Houtteman, hard-luck man of the
Detroit Tiger mound staff, as he
yielded only two runs and five hits.
The Tigers kicked in two errors
in the initial inning to get Houtte-
man into trouble.
It was the first time a Detroit
team had been held hitless in 26
years.
Lemon's hitless performance
is the first in the majors since
Bill MeCahan of the Philadel-
phia Athletics blanked thi
Washington Senators without a
hit Sept. 3, 1947.
It marked the third straight
year an Indian hurler had pitched
a no-hitter. Feller hurled his sec-
ond one of his career against the
New York Yankees in 1946 and
Black held the Athletics hitless
last year.
Other Cleveland pitchers in the
record books with no hitters are
Bob Feller, Wes Ferrell, Ray Cald-
well, Addie Joss, Don Black, Bob
Rhoades. Feller and Joss achieved
the feat twice.

Top Golf Pros
DETROIT, June 30-- (/P) - All
but a handful of the nation's
ranking golf professionals moved
into Detroit today for the first an-
nual $15,000 Motor City Open,
and it went without saying that
the man to beat was the mighty
mite, Ben Hogan.
Hogan, who already this sum-
mer has grabbed two big national
titles, the Open and PGA, heads a
field of 92 pros and 28 amateurs
into tomorrow's first of four 18-
hole rounds in the 72-hole stroke
play test. Single rounds are on the
daily program, Thursday through
Sunday.
Definite threats back of Hogan

out are such luminaries as Jimmy

PALO ALTO, Calif., June 30-
(/P)-Defending champion Dave
Barclay of the University of Mich-
igan defeated Howard Verutti of
San Jose State 5 and 3 today in
the first round of the 1948 Na-
tional Collegiate Golf Tourna-
ment.
Barclay, who qualified for the
match play automatically al-
though competing in the medal
rounds to help his school in the
team scoring, gained a 1-hole lead
on Verutti on the first nine.
Picks Up 4
He went to the front with a par
4 on the sixth, where his rival

went one over. The Michigan
entry had a 38 against Verutti's
39 on - the outgoing Stanford
course nine.
Wins Match on Birdie
His birdie 3 on the 15th made
it 5 up and the match. Verutti
failed to win a single hole, the
others being halved.

Elliott continued to show his com-
petitive ability in a widely diver-
gent sport by, defeating Ross Col-
lins, North Texas State, 1 up in a
tight match that went the full
round. Elliott carded 39-37-76
against Collins' 39-39-78.
