am mi iY "ji i pAce ten POUGHKEEPSIE NEW WEDNESDAY 'EVENING. JULY 15. iif I ii Ray Billows Cancels Plans to Enter Tarn O'Shanter. Amateur 1 1 i i i Pressure of Business Causes Last Minute Decision BREAKS of the Game dy PHIL GORDON Tonight the Mohawk Colored Giant return to action. After a five year layoff, we wonder what they'll be like.

Of course, aome of them have been playing ball aince the club was disbanded, but they have not played together at a team. Five can do a lot of damage to a batting eye or a fielding eye. Legs can get rubbery and arms can get stiff. The power that once was may not now be in existence. Yet, call it a hunch or call it wishful" thinking.

we have an idea that the Mohawks will make it tough on the younger Millbrook Colored Giants at River view field. Their eyes may have lost some of their sharpness and their muscles some of their obedience, but they haven't forgotten the baseball that they learned in the course of their 10 year stint in the Twilight league. Maybe this is sentimental bellywash, but the Mohawks will be out there for Percy West, 1 00 percent for Percy West. The receipts will be turned over to hit widow, but the game will be played for him. Percy played a lot of baseball for the Mohawkt.

When he was at shortstop, it was plain foolishness to hit a ball to the left side of the infield because it was a sure out. The Mohawks won't be the same without Percy. They'll miss hi performances, offensively and defensively. But they'll be the MohawKa, nevertheless, and some of the younger ballplayer who are. on hand are liable to learn how the game used to be played around here.

WEDNESDAY BENEFITS This will be the first of four Wednesdays at which benefit games will be held in Poughkeepsie. On the following weeks, the Twilight and Softball league All start will clash in a "half and half softball baseb.il en Counter for the USO. The next week and the week after that there, will be a straight Softball and a straight baseball game, the proceed received by the softballers going to the injured Chet Podes. Wednesday night, it appear, la scheduled to be benefit night, in Poughkeepsie, for it the one evening when no athletics are regularly scheduled. Of course this benefit business can be overworked, anil we would suggest that benefits be held only for particularly worthy causes, such a the ones now on tap.

The worthiness of the USO ha never been doubted, nor eaA there be any let doubt that benefits for Mrs. West and Chet Podea are deserving of support. But all that the teams can do I to offer their service for a game or a series of games that are "naturals." The rest is up to the fans. Certainly, however, there has been no evidence yet of anyone withholding hi cooperation. Chief Mueller, for instance, requested that he be permitted to arbitrate the West benefit, gam tonight, and when Emit Beal was asked if he would donate hi services, he jumped at the opportunity.

That's the sort of stuff that puts such a program over. CHAFF Poughkeepsie la continuing to do well by the Kingston Rec. In the 10 inning. 4 3 defeat of the Rheingold Brewers of Brooklyn Sunday night, Don Hempe went all the way on the mound, and four of Kingston's five hits were provided by Hempe, Whitesell, Van Herpe and Downer. Melio Bettina is training at.Bettina bowl in Beacon each day in preparation for hi bout with Gus Dorazio July 27 in Shibe park.

Philadelphia. By that time the Beacon southpaw will be in the Army, but his two week furlough will give him the opportunity of fulfilling his'contract. Now that Melio will be in khaki, his chance of catching up to Joe Louis in the ring are better than ever. A bout possibly could be staged by the Army for the Emergency Relief fund. Melio is training with two new sparring partners.

Earl Loman and Arthur France, and a third newcomer is expected this week. Ray Billows will take a crack at the State title again this year, and we're laying our dough on him. Although Shirley Podret missed the women's crown by scant inches, she put Poughkeepsie to the fore this year in golf, and by the time Ray gets through, we expect him to cop the honors for the fifth time. Between Miss Podret and Billows, the Dutchess Golf and Country club is becoming well known throughout the state. Monday Set For Tie Replay Twi Nines Battle To 5 5 Deadlock Tie game between Hey Theres snd Arlington will be replayed Monday evening, according to tentative plans.

The two teams battled to 5 5 tie last night In a Twilight league contest. Coming from behind. Hey Theres. who could not afford to lone the game If they wanted to retain their chances of getting Into the playoffs, put on the prewure In the fifth Inning, coming up with three runs to knot the count, and from then on both teams went scoreleu. Otto Faust started on the mound for Hey Theres, but when he weak ened In the fourth, letting two runs come In with only one away, the versatile Walt Stauderman was called In to take over the hurling chores, and he pitched no hlt, no rue ball for the three and two thirds Innings that he worked.

In the sixth Inning, he fsnned the three men who faced him. Hey Theres were forced to use a makeshift lineup as Filler and Streck did not show up and Wunder ly's foot Injury prevented him from cstchlng Jsck Kelleher, however, donned the backstop equipment for the first time in his baseball csreer, and In spite of a few bruises thst he picked up because of his lsck of techtnque, he played a commendable game there. Both Stauderman and Kelleher are ordinarily shortstops, but as a battery combination, they worked together smoothly. Freddy Miller did the hurling for Frank Melsner's Arlington, and. except for the fifth Inning, when ne waisea two ox me runs, ne looked very strong.

In the lsst frames, however, he regained his control, and darkness falling at the end of the seventh. Umpire Tom Murphy called the game. Arlington started the scoring In the first with a single tally, but Hey There came back In the second to tie It up. In the third. Hey Theres got their second run, but Arlington got a pair, to take the lead, and In the fourth two more were added, with Hey Theres evening the count In the fifth.

Eight hits were collected off the slow working Faust In his short tenure on the mound. Miller gsve up six In the seven Innings.

i Luck Proves Factor In Successful Pitching Ray Starr of Reds Loses Three Hitter; Vern Olsen, Cubs, Hurls 11 hit Shutout Ball (By Tha Aaaoeiatad rraaJI The secret of successful pitching sometimes seems to be luck as' much as tklU. Yesterday Ray Starr, the lean spellbinder of the Cincinnati Reds, pitched three hit ball and was beaten 3 1 by the pitiful Phils because two outfielders collided under a fly hit by Pitcher Frank (Rube) Melton and the ball fell for a home run. On the other hand Vern Olsen, the Chicago Cubs' southpaw, was pummeled for 11 hits by the New York Olants and not only escaped with his sixth straight victory but scored a shutout, 3 01 Starrs misfortune came. In the? fifth Inning Just after his teammates had given him a 1 0 lead. The year old rookie walked Catcher Benny Warren of the Phils and then Melton lifted a long fly to left center.

Outfielders Max Mar shall and Harry Craft raced for It and knocked each other to the ground. The ball rolled away for a homer and time had to be called and stretchers, too before the game could continue. This resulted In Stsrr being charg ed with his fifth defeat against a dozen victories and cost Cincinnati full game's distance against the Brooklyn Dodgers and St. Louis Cardinals, both of whom won. At Chicago the Olants got men on base In every Inning and made hits in the first eight, but they never were, able to break through Olsen for a run.

The Cubs made three less hits off two New York pitchers, but Lou Novlkoff singled home two tallies In the fifth and the Cubs scored In the eighth on two tingles one of the scratchy sort. At Bt. Louis Mort Cooper had luck of a different sort. He wss batted out of the box for the third time in succession, but the Cardinals rsl lled spectacularly to beat the Bos ton Braves, 7 fi. In 11 Innings and wipe out what would have been Cooper's fifth setback.

A two run homer by George Kur owskl tied the score In the eighth and another two run circuit clout by Stan Muslal settled the sffalr. Brooklyn punished the Pittsburgh Pirates 5 1 with Whitlow Wystt pitching three hit ball for his tenth triumph, of the year In a night game that drew 31,354 fans at Pitta burgh. Wyatt's path was made easy when Billy Herman doubled with the bases loaded In the first Inning for three runs. The Pirates, who sent two lnfield ers to Minneapolis In a deal for Huck Oeary, who had not arrived at game time last night, had to play outfielder Eddie Stewart at third base because Bob Elliott was 111 Stewart made an error that helped load the bases In the first. In the American league, the New York Yankees downed the Detroit Tigers 3 0 on the two hit hurling of Rookie Hank Borowy and extended their first place margin to six games as the Boston Red Sox absorbed an other beating by the Bt.

Louis Brc'vns, 3 3. The Yanks made only six hits off Big Al Benton, but one of these was triple by Borowy that was good for a run In the third Inning and another wis a two run homer by Tom Henrlch In the sixth. It was the third straight game In which the Yanks have homered and it gave the champs a 3 1 edge In the four game series Boston was held to seven hits by knuckleballer John Nlggellng. but made the score close because two of hese were home runs by Lou Fin ney and Oscar Judd. Wide World Features SEATTLE The University of Washington baseball tesm was playing Its old foe Washington State, at Pullman.

It was the last of the ninth. Doug Ford, 315 pound sophomore hurler. was on the mound for Wsshlngton. He hsdnt allowed a single hit up to that point. He got the first man.

The second also went out. Just one more putout and Ford would have a perfect no hlt, no run game. The third man hit an Infield roller. There was plenty of time, but the first sscker wss pulled off the bag. Before the uprising could be quelled.

Washington State scored two runs to tie the score, then went Into the tenth Inning to wtn, 3 3. Ford can tell you thst coming close Just doesnt count.

GREENSVILLE, TENN Folks of this rolling tobacco land region who vote next August 6 may have for their new sheriff the man who won the American league batting championship 10 years ago Big Dale Alexander. For Alexander, rtajtiJ. weighing 334 pounds as he stretches six feet, three Inches skyward, and master of a 130 acre farm is combing the countryside for votes. He's running on the Democratic ticket in Greene county which swerves back and forth In its political preferences and he thlnkr he has a good chance. If he can buttton hole supporters like he did base hits In the torrid months of July, August and September in 1933, hell be donning the badge all right.

Lest jour memory falls you, the record book shows Dale went from Detroit to Boston with an anemic .250 batting average In mid June and then, stationed at first base for the Red Sox, went berserk with his mace. Final Day Splurge On the final day of the season he blasted two hits to nose out Philadelphia Jimmy Foxx and the Immortal Lou Oehrlg for the hitting crown with a buxom .367 average "The Big Ox." aa he was affec tionately called by the late George Stalllngs, falter the following sea son possibly because he wss slow afoot and posted a .381 mark be fore returning to the minor leagues.

In 1941, second place In the South eastern league was copped by his Selm. club. Last spring Dale decided to stay close to home thinking of the business of becoming sheriff so he could stay with his wife and two boys, one eight and the other five and took the reins of the Oreene Tllle entry In the Appalachian league. 'It was with this same club that Dale got started back tn 1933. Lest month the war caught up with the Burley Cub and they dropped out of the league.

The wandering pros, whose suc cess often was measured more ay the firms they represented than the tournament they woo, are wondering what use they can be to companies which have curtailed their production of golf equipment. Since the early 30's star golfers have picked up extra cash rsngLt from the hundreds to the thoutsnds.

simply by lending their names to certain types of equipment, by demonstrating clubs and balls In tourney play and at clinics, and by putting new Items to the test in tht field. Oene Sarazen was among the first to discover this new wax of making money and Influencing customers. At a mere youth of 30 years he won the 1933 National open at Bkokle Country club, Olencoe, 111 and was signed up by Wilson. The short little man iu a great Investment. He has kept hit nsme In the public eye for two decades He won the 1932 National open, just 10 years after his first success, snd had high hopes of winning the 1943 Open only to have It cancelled by the war.

Wilson, after hiring Ssrssen, signed up Vic Ohexxl, Clayton Heather, Dick Metz, Lloyd Mangrum, E. J. (Dutch) Ralph Oul dahl, Johnny Revolta and Ssm 8nead. Spalding waa quick to sign Horton Smith and followed with tuch iters as Jimmy Thomson, Law son Little and Harry Cooper. Dun loo nabbed Cralsr Wood.

MacOregor contracted the services of Ben Ho gan, Byron Nelson, Jimmy Demsrei and Henry Ptcard. The companies that employ more than one pro find It Is a lot like developing a stable of race horses. The more they have, the better the odds of having a winner In any particular tournament. Like horse owners, sporting goods manufacturers sometimes tske chance on an "unknown" or an overnight star who may never win again.
