Triumph on Berra's ingle




FROM SENSATION to bum to sensation again is the story of
Robert Feller, who will have a night in Cleveland Monday, and a
well-deserved one at that.
The Iowa farmboy who astonished baseball with his dazzling
fastball in the late thirties is back on the gravy train this season
after a lull of several years. No longer does the slick-haired, grinning
Feller fade the ball past American League batters, but with age has
come a craftiness which has produced eighteeen wins already this
season.
FOR FELLER, having a night at Cleveland Stadium is nothing
particularly new. This one will be perhaps his greatest, however, for
only two years ago the story was that he was through.
While Cleveland was winning a pennant in 1948, Feller was
having a mediocre season. He finished fast, it's true, and was the
old reliable during the stretch run. But in 1949 his famous fire-
ball was gone, he got into the fans' bad graces with a refusal to
participate in the All-Star Game, 'and many said that he would
go the way of many a tired-out pitcher.
This season disproved that. He is currently the winningest pitcher
in the majors, and hurled his third no-hit game just to prove he
could still do it.
* * *
WE LAST SAW the Indian ace pitch a year ago in a night game
against the White Sox. The thing most noticable about his delivery
was that he no longer used the full overarm sweep that used to strike
terror into batters' hearts.
Instead, with the cool breezes blowing in from Lake Michigan,
he used a loose, easy sidearm motion which did not produce a
smoke ball but which did fool batters.
It all goes to show that speed isn't the whole story in this game
of baseball, though it is an important factor in consistent pitching.
Feller still has as much speed as the ordinary flinger, plus a knowledge
of the batters probably unsurpassed in the American League.
WITH THE END OF PUBLICATION for the summer session, the
writer hereby presents his patented, sure-fire, God-help-us pre-
dictions of things to come.
FOOTBALL-Michigan's Wolverines will drop their first three
games, finish fast to tie for the conference championship with Illinois.
Army will play defensive ball, hold its opponents below fifty points
in at least half the Cadets' ball games. Poor little Notre Dame will
wind up unbeaten, with Frank Leahy exercising his big towel after
every victory. It'll be Illinois over Stanford in the Rose Bowl.
* * * *
BASEBALL-The Dodgers will take the Indians, four games to
two, in the World Series. George Trautman will become baseball's
high commissioner, amid howls from various quarters. Dick Wakefield
will sign as a dollar-a-year man with the U.S. government. He'll claim
he's worth twice that.
TRACK-Don McEwen, Michigan's tireless distanceman, will fi-_
nally break nine minutes for the two mile in his senior year, but he'll
play second fiddle to sophomore John Ross in the mile.
BASKETBALL-Five more colleges will be involved in the big
bribery scandal, with the big intersectional games in such spots
as Madison Square Garden, Chicago Stadium, and the San Fran-
cisco Cow Palace called off because of doubtful playing conditions.
Michigan will win four games as Illinois recaptures the Big Ten
crown it won last year.
* * *' *
MISCELLANEOUS-The Byrle Abbin Cup will be retired with no
logical contenders left, what with the draft and the general deteriora-
tion among Michigan males ... Joe Walcott will waltz to a split de-
cision over Ezzard Charles, and Jake Mintz will have a stroke in the
ring, shouting "favoritism!" as the blood rises to his ears . .. Daily
Managing Editor C. D. Thomas will enter the Boston Marathon, hav-
ing proved his endurance during the summer of '51 ...
It'll be a banner year for banners , . . The athletic depart-
ment's new policy of handing out free programs to students at
Michigan home games will draw cries of foul! from students who
have been cleaning up on the cardboard variety , . Attendance
at football games will drop, but not noticably, as more and more
people stay home to follow the latest craze ... The latest craze
will be the pouf! party, started by television commercials which
advertise a deodorant which goes poof....
Umpires will go on strike just before the final day of the baseball
season, claiming they are sensitive souls and cannot stand the con-
stant bickering major league managers subject them to . . . They'll
return when all managers sign a pledge guaranteeing they'll speak
only in whispers thereafter .. . The writer will return in the fall, after

By The Associated Press
NEW YORK - The New York
Yankees forged to the front, at
least temporarily, in the Ameri-
can League pennant race yester-
day as they downed the Philadel-
phia Athletics, 7-4, in 11 innings.
Yogi Berra singled with the
bases loaded in the second over-
time inning to break up the game
and shoot the Yanks a half game
ahead of the Cleveland Indians.
The Indians, however, had a night
game on tap with Chicago and an
Indian victory would tie it up
again.
* * *
THE THIRD PLACE Boston Red
Sox tumbled 51/2 games behind by
losing a 7-1 decision to the Wash-
ington Senators. The Detroit Tig-
ers turned back the St. Louis
Browns, 7-4, in the other Ameri-
can League game.
Phil Rizzuto doubled to launch
the Yanks' winning rally off re-
liever Alex Kellner. Bob Ku-
zava struck out but Gil Mc-
Dougald was intentionally walk-
ed and Bobby Brown singled to
load the bases. Berra followed
with a single to center score
Rizzuto and McDougald and
when outfielder Dave Philley
threw wild to the plate, Brown
also scored.
The Yanks had taken a 4-3 lead
with a run in the top of the ninth
but Eddie Joost sent the game
into extra innings by blasting his
15th homer in the last of the ninth
with one out off Allie Reynolds.
ElmerValo followed with a double
to knock out Reynolds. Kuzava
took over at this point and held
the A's hitless the rest of the way.
* * * ,
FORMER YANKEE Dick Starr
turned in his first complete game
of the reason in beating the Red
Sox. Starr permitted seven hits
while Washington collected 13.
Eddie Yost, with a three-run hom-
er and Mickey Vernon, with four
singles led the Senator attack.
Hoot Evers drove home five
runs on a homer and double to
lead the Tigers to victory over
the Browns. Dizzy Trout started
and received credit for his sev-
enth victory but needed help
from Gene Bearden. Duane Pil-
lette was charged with the de-
feat his 12th.
In the National League, the
league-leading Brooklyn Dodgers
split a doubleheader with the Bos-
ton Braves, winning the opener,
8-1, but losing the nightcap, 8-4.
The Philadelphia Phils defeated
the New York Giants, 4-0, and
the Chicago Cubs and Pittsburgh
Pirates split a twin bill, the Cubs
winning the first game, 4-3, and
the Pirates the second, 2-1.
Y * -
RALPH BRANCA turned in his
tenth victory in the opener at
Brooklyn. Branca limited the
Braves to six hits and fanned ten.
Sid Gordon homered for the
lone Boston run in the second inn-
ing. Duke Snider started the
Dodgers off with a two-run homer
in the first inning against War-
ren Spahn. The Brooks chased
Spahn and clinched the game with
three runs in the sixth.
Max Surkont scattered nine
Dodger hits in the nightcap in-
cluding home runs by Snider

and Andy Pafko. Gordon sewed
up the victory with a two-out
three-run homer in the ninth
off Clem Labine. The Dodgers
scored a run and loaded the
bases with two out in the last
of ninth but Surkont fanned Gil
Hodges for the third time to
end the game.
Robin Roberts blanked the
Giants on seven hits to post his
16th victory and fifth shutout for
the Phils. Home runs by Andy
Seminick and Ralph Caballero
accounted for a half of the Phils'
runs off Jim Hearn and George
Spencer.
Rookie Bob Kelly turned in his
first complete game in beating the
Pirates in the opener at Chicago.
The Cubs won out with a two-run
rally in the eighth against Vern
Law who homered for Pittsburgh's
first run in the fifth inning.
The St. Louis Cardinals enter-
tained the Cincinnati Reds in the
National's only night game.

Locke 's 64 Ties
For Tam Lead

CHICAGO-MJP-South Ameri-
ca's Bobby Locke suddenly came
to life in the $50,000 world cham-
pionship of golf yesterday with an
eight-under-par 64 that hoisted
him into a share of the 54-hole
front spot with home pro Lloyd
Mangrum, who blasted a 65.
Locke and Mangrum, among the
first third-round finishers in the
field of 64 pros hotly pursuing the
$12,500 top prize at par 36-36-72
Tam O'Shanter course, reached
t h e three-quarters mark with
207's, nine under par.
'* * *
A 208 SHOOTER was Pete
Cooper, White Plains, N. Y., pro
who rapped a third round 68 after
sharing the eleventh spot at the
halfway mark with 144.
All-American champion Cary
Middlecoff, rallying for a 67 aft-
er a second round 74, and per-
sistent Jack Burke, adding 67
to his halfway 142, came in at
209.
Norman Von Nida of Sydney,
Australia, who was the halfway
leader among the ten foreign en-
tries at 141, fell four strokes be-
hind the new international pace-
setter, Locke, with a 70 for 211.
Also bracketed at 211 was Walt
Burkemo, Franklin, Mich., pro,
with a third-round 69.
* * *
IN THE concurrent $6,000 Wo-

men's "World," Betsy Rawls, Aus-
tin, Tex., continued to show her
heels to defending champion Babe
Zaharias.
Miss Rawls fired a third-
round 76 for a 54-hole aggregate
of 223, five under women's par
and two strokes ahead of Mrs.
Zaharias and Patty Berg tied at
225. Babe picked up two strokes
on Miss Rawls with the best
round among the 19- player
field, 37-37-74.. Miss Berg shot
even-par 76.
Five strokes behind Miss Ramls,
23-year-old national runner-up
last year, was Louise Suggs, who
perked up with a 75 for 228.
* * *
FRANK STRANAHAN, All-
American amateur champion from
Toledo, Ohio, maintained his spot
ahead of the World's ten simon-
pures with a 71 for a 54-hole count
of 211.
Poromter George S. May was
headline news this morning in
one Chicago newspaper, which re-
ported Tam employes had said a
threat was made against his life
for hinting he might "blow th
lid" off local gambling conditions.
May appeared unguarded, how-
ever, as he doamed from starting
O'e to lth green. He declined to
comment on the report.

The West Point academic scan-
dal and reports of skullduggery at
other schools brought positive
statements on the matter from
various points.
IN ANN ARBOR, retiring Uli-
versity president Alexander G.
Ruthven declared that he was ap-
prehensive of the increased em-
phasis and increased rivalry in
collegiate athletics whichrhasled
to serious temptations for young
men.
He stated that "no matter
how much we disregard the
facts, some professionalism is
creeping into college athletic
programs."
At Williamsburg, Virginia, head
football coach R. N. (Rube' Mc-
Cray resigned abruptly amid an
official probe of alleged "malprac-
tices" by members of the athletic
department in the academiU grad-
ing of students.
** *
SIMULTANEOUSLY, William
and Mary's basketball coach, Bar-
ney Wilson, handed in his resig-
nation. Administrative officials
at the college had discovered evi-
dence that the records of high
school athletes had been altered
in some instances to make them
academically eligible to enter the,
college.
A happier note on the theme
of amateurism was struck at
Johns Hopkins University, where
new football coach Frank Burns,
former Rutgers star, said he was
coaching "where football is
played as a game and not as a
business.'"
At Johns Hopkins, everyone is
required to participate in the in-

WEST POINT, where the ama-
teurism question was raised by
the dismissal of most of the Army
football team for cribbing on ex-
aminations, was the scene of spe-
culation as to how the Cadets
would fare during the coming
football season.
As things stand now, Coach
Red Blaik will tackle his impos-
ing nine-game schedule with a
152-pound fullback in the posi-
tion once occupied by such gi-
ants as Doc Blanchard and Al
Pollard.
He is sophomore William 1haP.
of New York-and he's a pretty
nifty ball carrier despite his size.
AND THE CADETS' famed two-
platoon system has gone down the
academic drain along with the
athletes lost to the team in the
current cribbing scandal.I
"We couldn't possibly use the
two-platoon system with this
patched up squad," a member of
the coaching staff said yester-
day. "We may have to use some
of the men 60 minutes."
Only two members of Army's
regular 1951 squad are listed on
the revised roster issued in the
wake of the exam-cribbing scan-
dal that virtually erased the team.
* * *.
THEY ARE John Korbock of
Hazletown, Pa., and Ed Weaver of
Kingston, N. Y., junior ends. j
The rest of the squad is made
up of seven "B" squad member s
-seniors who previously were
not good enough to make the
50-man varsity-and last y ear's
Plebe squad.
The Military Academy, in re-

leasing its revised squad list, said
it cannot be assumed that men
missing from the original roster
were involved in the scandal.
Some players, for various reasons,
may have left the squad before
the scandal broke.
However, Coach Earl (Red)
Blaik said last week that all but
two-which he later amended to
make "all but a few"-of his foot-
ball team were included in the
expose.
In 1950, the Plebe team featured
good backs and a few outstanding
defensive men.

yesterday with a 6-4, 6-3, 6-2 de-
molition of Canada's Brendan

clinched t h e North American
