12 ctOTires By Dick McCann Over Braves, 7-5 2 Is AIL Pittsburgh, July 14. Sometime in the future, a bright young man is going to come along with a sensational plan. Like Larry MacPhail, who came out of the West with the startling idea of playing night baseball in the major leagues, this young man is going to be bold enough to suggest the major leagues try, of all things, day baseball. Yes, sir, this progressive newcomer is going to hurl a bombshell into big league conference rooms and ask them to try starting a game at 3 P. for a change.

St. Louis, July 14 (JP). A pair of home run blasts by two rampaging rookies pulled a seemingly lost game out of the fire this afternoon and gave the Cards a 7-5 11-inning victory over the Braves. With St. Louis trailing 5-3 in the eighth, George Kurowski belted a Of course, the far-fetched idea is going to be pooh-poohed at first.

But, soon, one or two aggressive club owners, whose attendance is falling off because people are bored with night games, double-headers, twilighters and such, will give the strange starting time a trial just for the novelty of the thing, don't you know. Some of the players will grumble that the new time interferes with their eating schedules and night-workers, who nap in the daytime, will complain the noise of matinees at the nearby ballpark disturbs their rest and will threaten to sue. 3 i pi si a 13 STUARTS GOLDEN NEEDLE (all-wool) TROPICAL WORSTEDS Now 11 sasl ASasT slleraliau) As-cn iated Pres Wirpfoto) Slaughter slides into third on Musial's double.

The Braves clubbed Mort Cooper from the hill in the fifth with a four-run splurge, but could do little against relievers Whitey Moore, Howie Pollet and Howie Krist. The latter held the Braves hitless the final five frames to earn the decision. Stogey -conservatives, like MacPhail, will complain the newfangled time will make a joke out of baseball which has been, for years, a night game. They'll call it just a novelty, and say it's making a vaudeville act out of the grand old game, and warn that fans won't go for it- But, after a while, the new time will catch on and prove so popular that a hard-pressed owner, the Clark Griffith of his time, will try to get permission to play unlimited day ball. This preposterous plan, of course, will be voted down as making too much of a good thing.

Each club thereafter will be limited to playing seven single games in the afternoon. HESE all-wool, London-shrunk Trop ST.

Not since July 3 have the Brooks started to play at the old-fashioned time of 3 o'clock in the afternoon. On that date, they brushed off a musty old museum piece a 3 I. M. game with the I'hils.

Since then, they've played two double-headers and some participated in the All-Star twilight tilt at the Polo Grounds. Then, Wednesday, they played at night in Milwaukee and, on Thursday and Friday, under the lights of Cincinnati's Crosley Field. Saturday, they blinked in the early afternoon sun and played a double-header with the Reds and on Sunday, they struggled through a twin bill here. Tonight they played here under Forbes Field's lights. Tomorrow, in Chicago, they'll play at the old starting time of 3 P.

The husky reliefer was complaining today about the lack of system in relief pitching. "Now, you take a phone." said Hugh. "Why don't they have a phone so they can tell us what's going on? Sometimes we can guess. We see a pitcher in a jam. And Chuck Dressen signals for one of us to warm up.

Wagging his left hand means French; right hand over head means somebody else; and side-arm means me. But the other night in Cincy I'd been told to warm up lightly in the eighth just in case Whit Wyatt weakened. Well, I didn't see him toss the ball in the dugout, and I didn't know what was going on when Leo started arguing with the umps. I thought he was stalling for time so I could get warmed up enough. So I pitched like all-get-out to find they didn't want me.

All that work was for nothing. Of course, I wouldn't mind except at night when you get all warmed up and then sit down your arm stiffens up and you might not be able to loosen up in time when and if they need you later." GABARDINE SLACKS Now 689 alu-w nti. i Melton's Homer Beats Reds, 2-1 Cincinnati, July 14 OP). Ray Starr hurled three-hit ball for Cincinnati today but lost to Philadelphia, 2-1, on the strength of a fly ball by Rube Melton that went for a two-run homer after two Red outfielders collided and were momentarily dazed. The unusual incident occurred with two out in the fifth with Catcher Ben Warren on base through one of Starr's four walks.

Max Marshall and Harry Craft collided and were knocked to the ground as they chased Melton's fly. Time was called so were a pair of stretchers but after a short rest both players revived and remained in the game.
