and a homer by Rudy York. The no-hitter was gone, but the game still went to Chicago. 6-3. Those famous slugged in Ti- icer uniforms have made only 24 hits in five games, never more ithan six in any one contest Greenberg hasn't hit a home run. In three of the affairs, they have made three errors.

John Vander Meer of Cincinnati gave Chicago fans a glimpse of his 1938 double no-hit form with a four-hit. 12-strikeout performance that bested Bill Lee and smothered the Cubs. 1-0.

Nemo Leibold. Herb Brett, and Hejiie Manush. The Piedmont league managers simply had to pick out tiie best men in camp. The best players the Leais' camp do not make the team automatically. Only Three Veteran? Allowed On Team In the Coastal Plain league there are rulrs controlling the number of experienced ball players who can be used.

There were rules the Piedmont winch said that a team had to have at least non-class men out of the 15. However, that didn't present any problem since the Red Sox could till the various positions without having to call on al! veterans Portsmouth and Richmond had trouble getting six good rookies to arry since they were not connected with any big league organization. The Coastal Plain league rules say that a club can not have more than three veterans on the team. A veteran is a player who hat been in professional baseball for three or more years. Eight of the players can be of the service'' classification which means that he hasn't had as much as three years experience.

Each team must carry rookies to round out tiie rest of the squad. Must Use Care In Picking Squad Thus tne ideal player in (he Piam league is one in the limned service classification He lias had some professional experience but not enough to class d.s a veteran. Naturally the veterans have to picked with preat care since a team wants t0 get the three most valuable men possible. Man ager Norman MeCaskill is one of the veterans and the Leafs are fortunate in having a catcher ot that, rating. Virsi! Taylor, a pitcher who won 17 gam.5 for Snow Hill last year, was another of the veterans counted on here, but he has returned to his home in Concord where he is expected to retain a mill position which he holds at the present.

Skipper MeCaskill must figure out where it is best to have an experienced player and where it is best to have a rookie. And of course there isn't a choice in every instance. Vandy Bears Out McKechnie's Words Yesterday's major league scores bore out several predictions made during the winter. For one, Bill McKechnie. manager of the world championship Cincinnati Reds, said that he thought this would be the year when Johnny Van-derMeer, former Durham star, would hit his right stride and become a valuable member of the pitching staff.

Yesterday's four-hit shutout over the Chicago Cubs proved that point for the tune being anyway. If Vandy has learned how to work consistently; if he has harnessed the power which is in his left arm. then he will be one of the outstanding pitchers in the majors and will give the Reds a Big Four which will mean a certain pennant. It was no startling prediction when the experts said that the Boston Red Sox would lack good pitching again. In spite of weak mound efforts, Joe Cronin's sluggers managed to win the first five games of the season.

But the pitching was so bad in the last two contests with Washington that the Senators slugged out easy decisions. Elden Auker Wins Another Yesterday's results also revealed some irony in the Boston pitching situation. Last year Elden Auker was sold by the Red Sox to St. Louis where he turned in 16 victories. Yesterday the submarine ball chunker notched his second straight decision of the current campaign to make Joe Cronin blush a little more.

Detroit was expected to have trouble this year even staying in the first division in spite of the fact that the Tigers are the defending champions. Buck New-torn, the mainstay of the pitching staff, has lost two games already and that doesn't help matters any, especially with Hank Greenberg scheduled to be called into the army soon.

Coached Since 1131 Tilson. former assistant coach at Duke, had been head coach here since 1933. His 1934 squad won the Southern conference championship, but there have been few recent major victories. Alumni rumblings were heard two years ago after a particularly lean season and some old grad clubs passed resolutions asking for a coaching shakeup but these quieted down when Tilson was given a new contract and Smith added to the staff. Last year's in jury-riddled squad won only two games in ten.

Smith was named on the As sociated Press all-America team of 1935 after quarter-backing the Alabama Rose Bowl team which whipped Stanford in 1934 and captained the east team in the East-West game at San Francisco on New Year's Day of his senior year.

A disastrous season neared its finish for the Rocky Mount Blackbirds here yesterday afternoon when the Cyclones ran rough shod over Emery Adkins' boys in an eastern conference meeting between the two schools. 13-3. Little Rainey Wilkerson tossed the win and yielded only six scattered blows to the Birds.

The Cyclones came from behind in the second inning to wipe out a 2-0 deficit with a six-run outburst. They were never in any trouble after that frame and again in the fourth batted around, getting four tallies. Durham high school will close out Rocky Mount's eastern slate in the Nash-Edgecombe city this afternoon. The Bulldogs held a 14-2 win over the Blackbirds. The Birds have dropped seven straight loop games.

Hackney paced the Wilson batters to their win, collecting four hits out of five tries. George Davis and Ben Mercer, each with two hits, were runner-ups.

IN SHUTOUT GAME AT CHICAGO PARK Durham Grad Warn Foe He Kay Be Back To-Form of Doable No-Hit Tear CHICAGO, April 23 AP1 Blond, blue-eyed Johnny Vander Meer ready for stardom again the spotlight be could not hold in 1938 after winning baseball immortality with two successive no-hit, no-run games. Since falling from the pinnacle after those dazzling feats, Vandy now 26, has found the comeback road rough and uphill all the way. But he gave convincing proof yesterday that he has regained his speed and confidence. Johnny set the Chicago Cubs down with four hits and struck out 12 batters for a 1-0 victory for Cincinnati. More significant, he walked only three batters and displayed his best form when in a hole.

He left eight men stranded in the first four innings and retired the last 16 men in order. The tipoff on his return to form came in the second game of the season when his cagy manager. Bill McKechnie, started him against the Cards. He wouldn't have got that assignment if he hadn't been ready. He lost that decision but it was one of those games that could have gone either way.

No Good in 13S After his double no-hit feat in 1938. Vandy went on to win nine in a row and finished the season with a 10-10 won-lost mark. But some how in 1939 the wild-ness returned and he was useless to the Reds. Last season he went back to the minors, fighting his way back to Cincinnati after winning six and losing four with Indianapolis of the American Association. "I was trying too hard in 1939," Vandeer Meer explained.

"Somewhere along the line I injured my shoulder and I was a loss after that. But my arm suddenly got all right last August and it has been great ever since. I haven't felt a single painful twinge since." His return to form leaves the rival National league clubs something less than jubilant. The world's champions already have pitching to burn Walters, Derringer. Turner, Thompson, Pearson, Moore but any club always has room for one more, especially if they can blow the batters down a la Vander Meer.

BOB EELLER PUIS BATTERS ON SPOT Warns Rivals They Better Stop Practice of Trying To Call Pitches CLEVELAND, April 23 (API-Bob Feller warned American league pitch-stealers today to stop calling his throws or half their clubs "will be in the hospital." The 22-year-old strikeout king made it plain he wouldn't toss any "bean balls" but that the result might be serious if an opposing batter were looking for a curve and got a blazing fast ball which didn't "break" when it reached his head. Rapid Robert's thoughts were focused particularly on the third base coaching boxes occupied by those astute baseball observers, Coach Mule Haas of Chicago and Manager Del Baker of Detroit. Haas told the White Sox what to expect when they beat Feller on opening day, 4 to 3, and Baker frequently called them lor tne Tigers last season although Feller beat the Bengals Saturday, 2 to 1. "I always know they could tell what I was going to throw but they didn't try to call them until last year." Feller observed as he made ready to face the St. Louis Browns in his third 1941 start.

Changed Style "I my fast ball a little dif ferently than I do my curve, and I wasn't covering my hand up enough with my glove," he said. I've changed that now. and while the position is a little unnatural I have Just as much stun. "Haas did a pretty good job tor a while opening day. but I was wild, too, and didn't have my stuff.

Baker called them a lot last year, but he wasn't doing it Saturday. I had found the trouble by then." Warning Haas and Baker not to do it again, Feller declared "my pitches are my bread and butter and nobody's going to steal them. If they try, the batters may be picking baseballs out of their ears. If they are looking for a curve and accidentally get a fast one it wouldn't surprise me any." Some baseball observers calculate Baker's enterprise in advising Tiger batters by signs or shouts of Bob's coming pitch was responsible for Feller losing five of eight starts against the Bengals last year. Detroit was the only club to win the season series from Bob.
