4 Berry couldn't resist the lure of the diamond so a few ago he agreed to terms with Grayle Howlett, Tulsa's versity of Oklahoma. Wilkinson had written Carl Voyles, Dodger head coach, and Jonas Ingram, AU-Amerlcan conference commissioner, protesting that the Dodger had nt a scout to the Oklahoma campus to sign up three player.

According fo reports from Tulsa, Berry Is the an- awer to Vincent's prayer, and he may prove just that as he Is an excellent fireman, even though he is past 40. Since his stint with Tulsa in 1942.

Berry has been with Milwaukee, Philadelphia and Cleveland, and started last year with the Oklahoma City Indians, signing with the Sports last spring. Although he is credited with win- ning only six and losing seven while with the Sports. I Berry was in 49 games for the locals and saved several games, posting an earned run average of 2.39, fifth in the league.

Ferrler and Mlddlecoff had to play off their quarter final match with Bobby Locke, Johannesburg, South Africa, and Lloyd Mangrum, Chicago, thi morning after they had finished in deadlock after 38 holes yesterday.
