EIGHT IRONWOOD DAILY GLOBE, IRONWOOD, MICH. MONDAY, MAY 15,1939. Tigers Roar A fter Big Trade, Win Doubleheader Interstate Tilt Goes 10 Innings; All Other Clubs Play. BY JIM RASMUSEN Although inclined to be a bit blow-hard Old Man Weather came through with a fairly nice day yesterday and the 12 Interstate Baseball league nines inaugurated the 1939 diamond season. Several drew fairly good crowds for the initial contest of a season which promises to be packed with plenty of interesting spirit.

The tightest ball game of the day was played on the Wakefield diamond where two hurlers whiffed 27 batters between them and the score wound up 2 to 1 in favor of the home club. Probably the most thrilling affair of the day was played at Bessemer where the home town club trailed along until the closing in- ings and then jumped on three Marenisco hurlers to gain an 8 to 7 win in 10 innings. Montreal, Gary Win The score was tied 6-all in the ninth. Bessemer crashed through with two runs in the extra frame and Marenisco tallied once. Montreal initiated Mercer into the Interstate loop with a 10 to 5 defeat, Aimone hurling for the winners.

Aimone is the lanky lad who tossed for Saxon part time last year and appeared to have a world of ability wrapped up in his big frame. Pep Tomich took the mound for Hurley's initiation into the circuit yesterday afternoon but had to leave in favor of Tony Gamache when Cary blasted out a victory, the final score being 11 to 4. Ciotti started for the victors but Lenny Mattrella took over before the final out was made. In the other two games Penokee dropped a 4 to 2 game to the Saxon nine "in a well played battle that found both clubs getting eight hits and Puritan slammed out a 10 to 6 win over Ramsay at. Ramsay.

In an effort to get a look-in at several games on opening day this writer stopped at Bessemer just long enough to see Hamilton of Marenisco halt a rally by the Bessemer team by fanning three successive men after two runs had been driven across the plate. Apparently Hamilton weakened again later as Miller and then Jeske took over the chores, Jeske hurling in the tenth inning. Felix Slams Homer At Ramsay the teams were just winding up the day's event as the car stopped alongside the field. However. H.

Felix of the Ramsay crew provided a nice little homer over the fence and into the water before the final out was made anc the fans left the nicely groomed Ramsay park for home and warm suppers. At Wakefield the teams were also putting the bats in the sack and the fans were still talking about the fine strikeout records oi the two hurlers from Wakefield and Davis. Yesterday results: Bessemer 8, Marenisco 7 (10 innings). Wakefield 2, Davis 1. Puritan 10.

BY SID FEDER New York, May Death cheated Challenger II out of hi chance for the Ascot gold cup back there in 1928, but the famous sire of blue-bloods may have his re venge next year with his gallan son, the mud flier, Challedon. As the result of his victory in the Preakness Saturday, Owner L. Brann is thinking of taking Challedon to England this fall to ready him for the 2 1-2 mile clas sic in June of 1940. Exploded Myth He has spoken in the past making the trip, and after "Pete's' brilliant victory Saturday, in which he exploded the myth of invincibility around Johnstown, Brann said to a friend with whom he has discussed the idea: "Well, how about taking him ovei there now?" Challedon, Brann points out, as a four-year-old will have nothing to keep him in this country, "so I may do it." If he does, it will be the last chapter in the story-book biogra phy 'of Challenger II, sire of the mud running, stretch breezing youngster which looked Johnstown as well as the four others in the Preakness field, in the eye and made them all eat the mud he kicked up over Pimlico's race course. This saga dates back to 1928 when Brann and R.

J. Castle formed their Branncastle breeding farm partnership, now dissolved For years, Brann, born in Indiana across the river from Louisville, had wanted a Kentucky derby starter So he and Castle commissioned J. Fitzgerald to look up any possibilities in England. Death Cheated Challenger II Lord Dewar, who had nominated Challenger II for the English derby and the gold cup, died before the races could be run and under an old rule in England the nominations were tossed out upon the nominator's death. So Challenger II was cheated out of his chances and Fitzgerald was able to buy the colt from Lord Dewar's son.

When he reached this country, Challenger turned in some amazing workouts. In training he did the mile under 1:40, but an ankle went bad and he was sent to Branncastle farm at Frederick, Md. Then in 1932 Brann saw a mare at the Saratoga sales he believed would be the ideal type to breed to Challenger. She was Laura Gal, by Sir Gallahad III. Where Challenger was compact, she was big and rangy.

So Brann bought the mare for $2,000. Challedon was the third and last foal of the pair. England After Arlington? Their most famous son, although he was beaten by Johnstown in the derby, now gives promise of fulfilling Brann's ambitions. He revenged himself In the Preakness Saturday while 30,000 soaked spectators looked on as John" came in a dismal fifth. The victory was good for a winner's value of $52,710 and Challedon paid $11.40 for each $2 win ticket.

So now it's the Arlington classic as his next big outing, and after that he may pack his kit and head for England to clean up that little unfinished business for his daddy.

Joe Graf, Lawrence captain, won the century, 220 and broadjump. Chicago, May 15 There wasn't much feeling of security by the holders of the top spot in the Big Ten conference baseball race today. Purdue and Iowa shared first place honors temporarily as a result of last week-end's games, but three teams, Michigan, Indiana and Northwestern, were close enough behind to indicate all five have an almost equal chance to take ever the lead by Saturday night.

The Wildcats, with double victory over Illinois last to 3 and 9 to the week's play against Chicago tomorrow and then go to Iowa for a pair of contests with the Hawk- eyes Friday and Saturday. Idle Iowa eased into a first-place tie with Purdue when the Boilermakers broke even with Ohio State in two games, winning the opener 9 to 3, and then losing the second 6 to 5 and with it their sole claim to the lead. The leaders each have five wins in seven games. A half game behind was Michigan with 4 wins and two defeats, while Indiana and Northwestern were deadlocked for fourth place, each with 5 victories and 3 setbecks.

Purdue will seek to hold its high ranking in a pair of games against seventh-place Illinois, while Michigan's fight for the lead will be two engagements with Minnesota. The Wolves split their Indiana series last week, dropping the first tilt 9 to 5 and then winning the second 11 to 1. The Gophers maintained a .500 batting by whipping Chicago Saturday 11 to 4 after dropping the first game 11 to 3. They have four wins in eight games, while the Maroons were tied for the bottom with Ohio State, each with two wins and six defeats. Wisconsin was idle in conference play and remained in eighth place with two wins and four losses.

BY JUDSON BAILEY Associated Press sports Writer It took the biggest swap baseball has had in years to shake the Detroit Tigers out of their sleeping sickness, but they roared like healthy animals when they finally stirred.

Up until Saturday night when they traded Vernon Kennedy and live other players for Buck Newsom and three others, the Tigers had won only one of 11 games since May 1. Helped Both Teams So the double damper they slapped on the St. Louis Browns, 14-4 and 7-4, yesterday in the first bargain bill of the major league program may have made some of their future foes tremble. On first glance, at least, the deal appeared beneficial to both clubs, but since the Bengals had the most marbles to begin with they seemed to have profited most. For months Detroit fished for a good pitcher and a good outfielder.

These were obtained without giving up anyone who figured importantly in the Tigef plans. Newsom is a workhorse who pitched 330 innings for the Browns last year and won 20 games. With Tommy Bridges and a renovated Schoolboy Rowe he made Detroit three good pitching numbers backed by Archie McKain, Al Benton and Dizzy Trout as added starters who have a chance of clicking. Roy (Beau) Bell is a good defensive outfielder who batted .344 in 1936 and .340 in 1937. Even last season when he slumped to a 262 percentage he brought home 84 runs.

Detroit Loses 6 Men Ralph Kress, 32-year-old shortstop who hit .392 last year, and Pitcher Jim Walkup were the other Detroit acquisitions. Both Bell and Kress were pressed right Into the Tigers' lineup yesterday and bagged hits in each game. To get this quartet the Tigers gave up Kennedy, a pitcher who won his first nine starts and then lost nine of his 12 decisions during the remainder of the season as well as his first two this year; Roxie Lawson, George Gill and Bob Harris, who between them have won two and lost three games to date; Infielder Mark Christman and Outfielder Chet Laabs. Yesterday's games, witnessed by 15,328 fans, largest turnout for the Browns in a dozen years, were decided by the clouting of Hank Greenberg and Rudy York. The big first baseman hit his fifth and sixth homers of the year with men on base in the first game and York delivered a pinch home run with the bases loaded in the ninth of the nightcap.

The performances brought the Tigers out of the cellar. Feller Wins No. 6 In the other American League games Red Ruffing shut out the Philadelphia Athletics, 10-0, on four hits and the slugging of his fellow New York Yankees, for his fifth victory without defeat; young Bob Feller won his sixth game against one defeat, beating the Chicago White Sox, 9-4, on six hits, and the Boston Red Sox outrallied the Washington Senators, 5-4 in the 12th inning, with Lefty Grove getting credit although removed in the 12th. Carl Hubbell made his 1939 bow as a starting pitcher and beat the Phillies, 2-1, when Pinchhitter Ken O'Dea homered in the ninth. Lou Fette, the Boston Bees' ace, chalked up his fifth win against one setback by shutting out Brooklyn, 1-0.

The Pittsburgh Pirates cuffed their Chicago Cubs' jinx, 5-2, and the first place Cardinals blasted five Cincinnati pitchers for a 9-5 victory. Morrie of Phils Tops National Batters; Likes His New Bat. Philadelphia, May bat borrowed from a rookie has transformed Morrie Arnovich of the Phillies from a .274 swinger into a .400 slugger who today tops the National League. a bat I picked up from Norman Deweese, down south, in spring training," explained the aggressive little outfielder before leaving on a road trip with the surprising Phils. "You remember him.

He was with us a while. This bat is lighter than the one I used last season. It weighs 35 ounces and is 35 inches long. I seem to be able to swing a bit freer than with my old 37-ouncer." The spirited Morrie is a certainly changed man. He has become a pain in the neck to National League pitchers, failing to hit in only one of the 22 games the Phils have played.

Including yesterday's game against the Giants in New York he has banged out 34 hits in 85 tripe to the plate and knocked in 20 runs, only one less than Frank McCormick and Ival Goodman, of the Cincinnati Reds, who are tied for Deweese, an outfielder, failed to make the grade and was released before the Phils came north.
