BULLETIN
MILWAUKEE (/P)-The Mil-
waukee Braves became the first
club in the major leagues to go
over the million mark in paid
attendance this year with Wed-
"I, nesday night's game against
Brooklyn.
The game, opener of a five-
game series, drew 35,470 fans to
County Stadium and raised the
total for 37 home games to
1,000,476.
NEW YORK (M-Attendance at
the major league ball parks has
been on the upswing this se.son
as compared to figures a year ago.
A mid-season survey by The As-
sociated Press revealed Wednes-
day that 11 of the 16 major league
teams are ahead of their 1954 at-
tendance pace and combined they
show an increase of 834,028 paid
admissions over last season. Fig-
ures include games through last
Sunday.
The American League has drawn
4,368,584 fans, and 4,248,197 cus-
tomers have watched the National
Leaguers for a grand total of
8,861,781.
The snifting of the St. Louis
franchise to Baltimore has proved
beneficial to American League at-
tendance. The Orioles already have
played to 661,746 fans to exceed
the final St. Louis total for 1953.
Baltimore shows a jump of 452,696
3 over the corresponding Brownie
figures of a year ago.
American League clubs are 701,-
456 customers ahead of last sea-
son with both the Detroit Tigers
and Chicago White Sox showing
substantial boosts. The Tigers have

Attendance
Improvement
attracted a turnout of 163,304 more
than their 1953 figure, while the
White Sox are up 105,178. Chicago
also has the most paid admissions
in the league, 704,
Turnstiles Turning
In the National League the first
place New York Giants show the
biggest rise-a gain of 151,886 over
last year. The Giants, who have
attracted 670,273 fans for 39 home
dates, drew only 811,518 for the
1953 season.
Milwaukee, picking up where it
left off last season after setting an
alltime National League attend-
ance mark of 1,826,397, has boosted
its turnstile take by 10,128 paid
admissions.
Turle, Star
Oriole Hurler
Injures Wrist
BALTIMORE (A') - Bob Turley
sprained his pitching wrist as well
as cutting his eye before Tuesday's
All-Star Game and is a doubtful
starter for the Baltimore Orioles
in a three-game series starting
Thursday against the New York
Yankees. Don Larsen is scheduled
to go to the mound instead.
Turley was hurt when he ran
into a fence while catching a fly
ball in the warm-up before the
game in Cleveland. Three stitches
closed the cut on his right eyelid.
The big righthander who leads
the American League in strike-
outs reported later he also had
sprained his wrist.

CLEVELAND-Tris Speaker, one
of baseball's greatest fielders, was
in "satisfactory" condition Wednes-
day at Lakeside Hospital where
he is recovering from a heart at-
tack.
The "Grey Eagle," now 68, suf-
fered the attack Monday. He was
player-manager of Cleveland, 1920
World Series winner.

Reagan New Head Coach
PHILADELPHIA-Villanova Un-
iversity, one of the nation's top
independent collegiate football pow-
ers Wednesday named Francis X.
Frank Reagan as head coach to
succeed the resigned Art Raimo.
Reagan, a native Philadelphian,
was a sensational halfback star
for the University of Pennsylvania,
and the New York Giants and Phil-
adelphia Eagles of the National
Football League. The past two
seasons he hashserved as back-
field coach for the Eagles.

Middlecoff Withdraws
CLEVELAND - Angry tourna-
ment officials, crying "tempera-
mental" and "a lousy trick," let
loose a bitter blast Wednesday
against former National O p e n
champio Cnary Middlecoff for sud-
denly withdrawing from the $25,000
Manakiki Golf Open.
"It's a lousy trick," said tour-
nament co-chairman Bob Shave.
"He gave no excuse whatsoever.
He didn't even say anything to
me. It stinks."
Middlecoff, winner of the tour-
nament last year, arrived in town
Monday night. He checked in with
officials at the Manakiki Country
Club Tuesday and then suddenly
packed his bags and left, said
Shave.

GIL HODGES

Trabert tGains
Quarter finals
In Net Match
CHICAGO (R)-Top-seeded Tony
Trabert had to work hard to win
one match Wednesday, then came
back to take another easily as the
National Clay Courts Tennis Tour-
nament was trimmed down to the
quarterfinals.
The flashy Cincinnatian put in
a delayed appearance at the
tourney Tuesday following a hur-
ried trip from Europe and, as a
result, had to play two singles
matches Wednesday.
First-ranked Maureen Connolly
of San Diego, Calif., needed only
30 minutes to dispose of Mary Lou
Vash, Chicago, 6-1, 6-1, in a first-
round match.
He was extended in getting past
Sammy Giammalva of Houston,
Tex., 6-4, 8-6. Then he breezed
over Al Kuhn of Evanston, Ill.,
6-2, 6-1.
Defending Champion Vic Seixas
of Philadelphia, seeded No. 2 this
year, also advanced to the quarter-
finals with a 6-2, 6-1 decision over
Ellis Slack of Sewickley, Pa.
Other seeded players, headed, by
Art Larsen of San Leandro, Calif.,
No. 3, and Bernard Bartzen of
San Angelo, Tex., No. 4-reached
the quarterfinal round.
Doris Hart of Coral Gables, Fla.,
rated No. 1, turned back Ethel
Norton; San Antonio, Tex., 6-1, 6-1.

Bums Tally
In Overtime
To Win, 2-1
Snider Drives in
Winning Marker
MILWAUKEE () - Duke Snid-
er's sacrifice flies in the first and
last innings scored all the runs the
Brooklyn Dodgers needed to beat
Milwaukee, 2-1, in 12 innings
Wednesday night before a crowd of
35,470 which boosted the Braves'
home attendance over the million
mark,
Snider's high pokes to leftfield
came in virtually identical situa-
tions and scored Junior Gilliam
with both runs. Gilliam and Pee
Wee Reese singled in order in both
the first and 12th innings, with the
fleet Dodger second baseman tag-
ging up and coming in after Hank
Aaron's catches.
Jim Hughes, making his 32nd re-
lief appearance of the year for
Brooklyn, held the Braves hitless
after taking over for Russ Meyer
in the ninth and gained his fourth
win against one defeat. Lew Bur-
dette, who went the distance for
Milwaukee, was tagged with his
10th loss against seven triumphs.
Gil Hodges' third hit in the 11th
was his 1,000th in his major league
career.
The Braves' lone run came off
Meyer in the eighth, Aaron smack-
ing a single to right to score Billy
Bruton who had walked and ad-
vanced on a sacrifice.
All-Star Feats
May Bolster '
Tribe's -Spirit
CLEVELAND U)-Will the feats-
of sore-fingered Al Rosen, Bobby1
Avila and Larry Doby in the All-
Star Game inspire confidence that
will make the Cleveland Indians a
big winner?
That was one of the questions
that arose Wednesday as the ma-
jor league baseball clubs prepared1
to resume championship play after
the midseason break interrupted
by the most hectic of all All-Star
classics.
The Indians in recent years
have been tabbed as a club likely
to fold when the pennant pressure
becomes heavy. And the loss of
four straight games to the third-
place White Sox looked suspiciously
like the beginning of a collapse.
But Cleveland's All-Star repre-_
sentatives were anything but le-
thargic athletes who looked ready
to give up. Rosen, who didn't
want to play because of a pain-
fully injured finger, got his dander
up when he fanned his first time
at bat and accounted for five runs.
Avila cracked three hits and Doby
opened the winning rally with a
game-tying pinch homer.
May Have New Spark
All this may only indicate all
the Indians need to win the Ameri-
can League pennant is to go
against National League pitching
all the time. Or it may mean
they've developed the spark that
will carry them right on to vic-
tory. The next 10 days should
show.
The Indians resume action
Thursday night against the totter-
ing Athletics in Philadelphia with
only a half-game margin over the
five-time champion Yankees.
The Yanks will be at home
against Baltimore Thursday night

and Chicago will play at Wash-
ington.

NEW YORK-Nino Valdes, the
Cuban giant, turned Hurricane
Tommy Jackson into a harmless
zephry Wednesday night, stopping
the 22-year-old favorite from New
York in 2:35 of the second round
at Madison Square Garden.
Valdes, an 11 to 5 underdog,
tamed the Hurricane with savage
body blows, rocked him with solid
right hand punches to the jaw and
floored him three times for an
automatic TKO.
