That they would like to go places other than where they are now was manifested by the Cardinals last night at the expense of the second-place Richmond Colts, the Hill City crew taking a doubleheader from Frank Rodgers' Mustangs, 4-2 and 9-7. Norfolk, pace-setters in the loop race, were shaded by Newport News last night, 2-1, in a fast game in which Bob Austin had the better of Jkn McAlarney in a hurler's duel. Portsmouth's Cubs, pushing Rich mond hard for second place, took a double bill from Roanoke, 2-1, in the opener, and 10-3 in the night cap. Tonight's-, games will see Lynchburg and Richmond in a single game; Roanoke at Portsmouth and Norfolk playing Newport News two in the Dodger Park. 0 FAMILIES ON VIRGIN'IA TECH FOOTBALL SQUAD BLA CKSBURG, Aug.

2. 7P In more than the usual sense, the Vir ginia Tech football squad is a family H. M. McEver, acting head coach, has his brother, Gene, assisting him in coaching the back- field. This is one of the few brother coaching combinations, if not the only one, in collegiate circles.

Tex Tilson, who is coaching the line, has his son, Sumner, scrapping for a starting berth at end. Young TUson, who is rangy and fast, is giving a good account of himself and probably will get the call at left end. Harry Bushkar of Dehue, W. who is the closest to a veteran that the Gobblers have he won his freshman numeral in 1942 the last year Tech fielded a football team- has a brother, John, who is making a strong bid for a guard position. Harry is sure to be a starter in the Gobbler backfleld and John un doubtedly will see action at guard.

Coach McEver plans to wind up summer drills this Saturday after noon. The Gobblers will return to the gridiron Sept. 3 to begin pre paring for an eight-game schedule which opens Oct. 6 with the University of North Carolina. Other games scheduled are: 13 William and Mary, at Richmond; Oct.

(JPy The annual Free-For-All for the" site of the Army-Navy gridiron tussle has opened with the Quaker City getting in the first bid. Reports from New York have it that Gotham already has the game in the bag, but Chamber of Commerce officials here say they have received word from Annapolis and West Point that if the game isn't played at West Point, it will definite ly be played at Municipal Stadium here Dec. 1. For several weeks now, rumors have been circulating here that Yankee Stadjum is being readied for the classic between the two football machines figured to head the na tion's gridiron parade again this year. It's strictly speculation anyway because, according to the Office of Defense Transportation, football games must be played at the home of one of the competing teams.

Last year, Navy was the home team and the contest was held at Baltimore, which is not far from Annapolis and is regarded by many as Navy's home field. And- accord ing to that ruling, the game should be played at West Point this year. Lt. Col. Lawrence (Biff) Jones, Army's director of athletics.

Inform ed officials here that "Philadelphia will be considered, but West Point is the likely site." Philadelphia holds a seven-year contract, effective except in war time, and wants to maintain its traditional position as the locale of the all-service battle. It's a long way to go before the annual classic and it may turn out that the "battle" for the game's site may become as intense as the game itself. Clement V. Oonole, general man ager of the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce, said he has explained to officials at the two institutions that if the game is given to Phila delphia, arrangements will be made to transport both teams along with student bodies by boat. NEW HOPE IS DEFEATED BY SNYDER NINE New Hope took a 14 to 0 shellr acking at the hands of the Snyder's Jewel Box Squad at the fairgrounds last night, behind the hurling of Mauzy, and Pfeiffer who relieved him in the seventh.

The local team collected 12 hits off the New Hope pitcher. This was the second straight win the Jewel Box boys have chalked up against New Hope and the second game this season in which they played errorless ball. Earl Logan, who has bem nursing an injured hand suffered in a spiking incident some time ago, was back in the lineup last night Manager John Simpson announ ces that games have been schedul ed for both Friday and Saturday night of this week, opposing teams to be announced. RICHMOND The Richmond Amateur Archers' Championship Tournament will be held here Friday, August 31, when archers of all ages will have a chance to try their skill under direction of tne Richmond Archers Club and the City Division Of Recreation.

Box 1014 Staunton, Va 8-l-2t mp OTT JOINS 500 CLUB (By The Associated (Press) Babe Ruth and Jimmy Foxx had to shove over today to make room In the 50O-hcme run club for Manager Mel Ott of the New York GianU. Ruth still had plenty of elbow room with his lifetime total of 714 round trippers but Foxx, who Is finishing his active career with the Phillies, can feel Ott's hot breath on his neck.

Double has 531, counting four this season, and Ott hit the half -millennial mark last night off Boston's portly Johnny gutchings. Things have been breaking tough for Ott since his Giants ran out of a spring pennant fever ad contracted a. lingering case of second division blues but the 36-year-old skipper hasn't let It hurt his hitting. Batting. 336, fifth in the league, with 19 doubles, 11 homers and 53 RBIS, the personable manager had done a good job of trying to lift his team up by its boot straps.

Nobody ever will point Ms New York's 9-2 romp over Boston as a prime example of baseball as It should be played but the date will live In the record books on Ott's No. 500. That's an average of 25 a year over a 20-year-span, a real standout mark. Boston's centerflelder, Carden GUlenwater pulled some dizzy base running that Included the unusual feat of taking third base when It also was occupied by teammate Butch Nleman. The Braves' three-man symphony had a chance to toot "taps" for Van Mungo's early departure but Bill Emmerich stopped their heroes for an easy New York verdict.

Far more important to the overall scheme of things was the com bination of Pittsburgh's 1-0 shutout of Chicago and St. Louis' 15-3 slaughter of Cincinnati. Slicing the Bruins' National League lead to five games and restoring the champs to second place over idle Brooklyn. Max Butcher blanked the Cubs with four hits while Frank Colman, who replaced the slumping Babe Dahlgren, drove home the big run with a seventh-inning double to beat Claude Passeau. Johnny Hopp socked a bases-loaded homer as the Cards went wild in an eight-run second inning to crush the Reds with a barrage, letting Charley Barrett coast home to.

his fourteenth success. Marty Marlon also poled a four- master, his first of the year. Brooklyn's twi-nlght doublehead-er In Philadelphia was washed out for the second night in a row. Detroit picked up a full game, boosting its advantage to an even five lengths over New York and Washington, now tied for second. The Bengals bounced back with four in the last of the ninth to shade St.

Louis, 9-8, on Roy Cullen-bine's double with the sacks packed and Vera Stephens' error. Lou Finney hit a grand slam homer for the Brownies In his first league appearance since being grabbed from Boston by waivers. Washington swept a doubleheader from Philadelphia, 2-1 behind Dutch Leonard and 3-0 on Roger Wolff's five-hit chucking to tie New York for second place. Boston snapped the Yankees' victory string at five, by railing for four runs in the seventh and a 7-5 margin. Vic Johnson took the nod on a fine Job of shutout relief chucking with Jim Turner charged with the loss.

Chicago regained fifth position by stopping Cleveland, 2-1, on a squeeze play with Floyd Baker bunting and Leroy Schalk scoring from third. 0- Gyroscopic motor cars, with only one front and one rear wheel, have been operated successfully.

The big boss of money! golf, Fred Corcoran, said here last' night on the eve of the $10,000 Canadian Open that the first step in raising Canadian Professionals to the proficiency of their American counterparts would be to shut the Americans out of some of Canada's big money golf tournaments.

The very backdrop of his statement provided Its strongest support. Out on Thornhill Golf and Country Club's 18 fairways, the 130-nan field which will start in the three-day open today as warming up for the fray. The best Canadian golfers were there, but the biggest of the pre-tournament galleries were with the American top-notchers, and that's how it will be throughout the tournament. Corcoran, tournament manager off the United States Professional Golfers Association, figured he wasn't doing a thing to harm his own covey of high class pros by making that recommendation. If It had the result he prophesied, it would make professional competition on this continent stronger a boon to the game.

The stars of Corcoran's golfing stable are favored heavily for the biggest money In the 72-hole medal-play open at Thornhill. Sam Snead, despite trouble from the wrist he broke a few weeks ago, is playing well and along, with Craig Wood will furnish strong competition for Byron Nelson and Jug McSpaden. ROUNDUP OF SPORTS KANSAS CITY, Aug. It said on the piece of paper (signed by the boss) "Please have a 'pinch hit' column ready Aug. 2 to sub for Hugh Fullerton 'Sports Roundup'." "So you have to punch one out in the clutch," said Casey Stengel, jovial, big-earred skipper of the Kansas City Blues.

"'Well, It isn't so tough. Pick out a vacant spot in the outfield, line up a pitch and poke it out there." should know. He parked a couple outside the Polo Grounds for the Giants in Ihe 1923 World Series "I recall a big barrel-chested fellow, Ruth I think his name was," continued Casey, "who even pointed out the spot, and bingo! he pasted it right where he said he would." Yes, Casey, but this 'blank spot' is on a piece of copy paper and besides we don't all park 'em where we point. "You're telling me?" said the man with the ever-ready comeback. "Well I remember another fellow, Stengel his name was, who swaggered to the plate one day in Brooklyn waggling a handful of bats and gesturing recklessly toward the fence.

Then he missed a tihird strike by eight inches. It was in Brooklyn, remember. I can hear those 'cheers' yet!" "I guess that big fellow, what's his name, Ruth, was tops," mused old Casey, who may get a call to pinch hit for the Yankees if Marse Joe McCarthy really gives up the reins as manager. "There were a lot of good ones in the 30 years I shagged flies and squirmed on the manager's bench in the National League Moose McCormlck of the Giants wasn't a regular but he could smack 'em when McGraw sent him to the plate He walked up there as if it were a simple mission. Frank Shulte of the Cubs was another.

He looked sleepy and lazy until the ball was almost In the catcher's mitt. Then he'd wake up the outfielders who had decided to doze with him Joe Schultz of the Cardinals wasn't a great player but he could come up cold from the bench and deliver. Lefty ODoul had a little trick of picking up the ball as he came in at the end of an inning and handing It to the visiting pitcher, pal like Then he would go to bat and pin the poor chukker's ears back," chuckled the seamy -faced manager. "Of course," he added, "they were no better than the great day-in- day-out stickers like Hornsby. Rog was best of the lot.

Johnny Mlze was almost as tough. Old Hans Wagner was foxy Wherever I played against him he would dump the ball out of reach Joe Med- wlck had several years when he was as good as they came" Mel Ott is dangerous in the Polo Grounds but not so good in others Paul Waner was a lltle guy who could whittle any burly hurler down to his size Johnny Fredericks used to make the great Hub- bell look ordinary. Carl could beat them all easily except the Dodgers and Fredericks was his worst enemy. "Those boys' bats all look like 16-inch cannon from my outfield spot and some of them cost me sleep when I managed big league clubs." So pinch hitting isn't so tough when you have the aid of an expert not even if the spot you have pick ed out is on a blank sheet of paper.
