FTTCHBURG SENTINEL, FRIDAY. APRIL 28, 1944 None Of Last Evening's Entries Have Chance To Qualify In Tbe Sentinel 1944 City Championships night's bowling in the division of the Sentinel's 1944 city rhflmr 1 qualifying Putnam street passed by without anything eventful happening. The leader last evening, Mrs. Virginia Ross, only hit a 455, not good enough to even give her chance to place in the first 10 to qualify in the finals on May 8. Consequently, the group which was in this bracket yesterday, remained in that spot today.

The lowest score is one pin above Mrs. Ross' mark, 456, and is held jointly by Miss Barbara Muroane and Miss Mary McCoraiek. The highest string hit last evening 99, with no one going into the century mark at all Miss Adeline Szotik and Mrs. Helen Heikkila, each had the high. The top scare tagged by Mrs.

Bow, the leader, was a 97. second highest last evening was Miss Elizabeth Sterhn, who hit a 440, leaving her away behind the leading Ross woman. -The lowest score last night vas an even 400. "Murderers' Row" sull leads the And, ufiVw something happens tonight to the contrary, it looks as 11 Miss Ella Longijo's 497 will go into the as the hih Tonight is the final night for the women to qualify. Among those scheduled to bowl this evening are, Florence Mashiter, who has a 92 average in fee Putnam street women's league; Nancy Marten, who has been hitting around the 500 mark lately, and Bavida Christian, a left-hander, who makes the ptns fly when'she is going right So, as can be gathered, some good bowlers will close the women's qualifying round out.

Others entered for this evening are: Ellen. Delaney, Dot Toko, Claire Massey, Eleanor Cunningham, Adri- aime Forrest, Gwen Smith, Gloria Stedefbrd and Audrey Gaetz.

Johnny Tagg expressed the thought that he was afraid the swell scoring of the first night would scare some of the women contestants away, but, going into tonight, there have been over 50 in the qualifying round. Last -evening, the fourth of the tourney, was the first in which none of the entries failed to even have a "look hi" on a qualifying position.

Mrs. Ross, who was tops, missed out by only one It is almost a certainty that the bowling will be better this evening with a few new qualifiers to be added. The Mumane-McCormick duo, With that 456, have plenty of reason Jo be anxious about the scoring. They would be the first eliminated. This is one time when the women won't have the last word.

The men go next week. Wyoming was the only state that had an open season on nuose and mountain sheep in 1943. The leaves of the oak tree which produces cork have edges. Major League Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE YESTEBDAX'S BESULTS St. Louis 5, Cleveland 1.

Browns Boast Confidence As Record-Breakers By OSCAR KAHAN ST. liOUB, April 28 Eight straight -victories don't mean a championship for the St Louis only major league club without a pennant, but its winning streak has given the team a Jong- missing ingredient The first time since they folded in the 1922 race, the Browns are confident They know they can win-the eight consecutive victories for a new American league get-away record prove it--and there was more than jest in Don Gutteridge's shout: 'X)nly 146 more to gol" The Browns have been -winning agamst the best in the west on the strength of good pitching and timely but not devastating hitting, yesterday, for example, they got only four singles in downing the Cleveland Indians, 5 to 1, but the punch was the moments of opportunity, that wasn true with a stouter attack in past seasons. Li their eight-game streak, the Browns have batted a bare 233 but, at the same time, their pitchers have slowed the opposition to an even more feeble pace of 515. Jack Kramer, Steve Sundra and Nelson Potter each has registered two victories, with "Fireman George Caster and Rookie Sigmund (Jack) Jakucki hanging up one apiece.

The one really fortunate break for the Browns was acquisition of veteran Gene Moore, thanks to Catcher Angelo Giuliani's decision to stay out of baseball. The Washington Senators substituted Moore for Giuliani in completing a trade for Catcher Rick Ferrell and the outfielder has helped spark the Browns' attack with a .347 batting average. The test of the team's new-found confidence will come on its first extended road trip next month. A sweep through the east may make a prophet out of Sports Editor John E.

St. Bernard's Beats Clinton, 10-5; Bob LeBlanc Hits For Circuit As 6 Dedi' Slattery Handcuffs Visitors Bill Dooley's St Bernard's high defeated Clinton high, 10 to in a game played at the Saints' field yesterday afternoon. "Dedi" Slattery, hurling for the Harvard streeters, let the charges of Joe McCaffrey down with but 6 hits, ane of them being a home run in the first inning for starting pitcher Ed "Smokey" Connors. This circuit blow came with a man on base.

The Clinton two-run lead was short-lived as the Dooleymen came back with a walk to Ed Belliveau and a liotner by Bob LeBlane to duplicate the Green and Gold feat and to tie the score. The contest continued on an even keel in the second as both clubs went scoreless, and, on -the defense, each, executed rapid-fire twin killings, The locals. connected with the platter three times in the third on a walk by Belliveau, Bob Smith reaching on an Slattery's double, a duo, of Connor wild heaves, and a stolen base. Clinton failed to score in this frame as'the Saints worked another double play. In the fourth, a single by "Mike" Flynn, a walk to Belliveau and a -single by Slattery, accounted for anoifaer Fitchburg run.

A single by Slattery, a walk to Bob LeBlanc, and a double by Eddie Straka, gave the Dooleys two runs in the sixth. In the eighth inning, Clinton started a rally. They scored three runs when Lang walked, Connor singled, Ray Browchuk reached on an error, and the committing two Slattery wild pitches. the Bernardians that spoil their day as in the eignth, Fred LeBlanc singled, Stattery was safe on a nuscue and Bob LeBIinc singled, combined with another Clinton error and two stolen bases, them two more tallies. Clinton went out in order in the tinth.

Bill Bencry. Murphy Tangles With Claybourne In Feature Match Jack Claybourne, the agile Oregon colored champ, who lost a tough decision to Sandor Szabo at the Arena Wednesday night, will headline promoter Oscar Maki's wrestling program scheduled for the city auditorium next Monday night, meeting the popular Dr. "Dropkick" Murphy, who is a wrestler by night and a practicing osteopath by day. This promises to be a metropolitan night, as Tiger Tasker, the Canadian win tangle with Manuel Cortez, die fiery Spaniard in the co-feature bout, a 60-minute time limit affair, best two out of three falls to win. If the main bout fails to live up to expectation, this semifinal may steal the show.

The preliminary bout between Jim Spencer, the Bates athlete and Walter lapson, the wrestling referee, will be a no time-limit bout, one fall to win, with the winner taking the entire purse. It seems these two are not on very friendly terms, and this "grouch" match is to settle the argument Alley Angles, In a special match at the Palace alleys last night between the married and the single men of the Fitchburg Shoe, the former were the winners by a total fall of 122 pins.

Monday Is Softball Deadline, Says Prexy Al Graustein, president of the local Softball league, announced today that all teams desiring to make entry into the circuit must do so before Monday, May 1. He has declared that date as the deadline.

It was also announced bv the loop executive that any and all persons interested in the circuit are invited to attend the meeting held at the YMCA. The U. S. Aimy Air Corps holds the absolute altitude record, 72.395 feet, reached with a free balloon in 1935. Clean, fresh sod or dirt put into a pig pen every few days is a good anemia preventive.

We have nothing against Oscar MakL Banish that thought. Our argument in all these wrestling wrangles has been solelj with the mat game. No personalities have entered in any way from our side of the fence. But, day in and day out, new efforts to "hose" the public are being initiated by the grappling gentry. In some instances, even old ideas are gut to work.

At any rate, you and you are taking the beating. In this instance, we have gone back to something which we have wanted to talk about for some time. It is about a month connected with it is the stench of false advertising and misrepresentation. We are referring to the night in which Jack Sharkey, the ex-heavyweight champion of the boxing world, was slated to show here as the star in a program which had him share top- billing- wifh Sandor belt" Sharkey showed, but, where in creation was the belt? We don't give a hoot for Szabo, and we care less about his belt, but, everyone there wasn't of the same opinion as we were. There were people there who had sat in on the Claybourne dive to the ropes, "knocking himself out." There were folks on hand who had sat aghast, amazed and bewildered once before when the "Angel" pinned 4he "Golden Terror" but, who had stood in dejected silence as the latter refused to reveal his identity although these Fitchburgers had tossed $1.65 to see such a sight.

Those people, that very same "belt" night, were "sucked in" to another extent. One of the performers, Ed "Strangler" White, failed to appear for his match with ther-diamond-beltless-Sandor Szabo. But, once again, they grinned and "took it." It is getting to be such that "hood-winking" is not an art. It depends entirely upon the intelligence of the public. In this case, the public is as foolish with its money as they are with its ideas on entertainment.

The latter word preferred, because "rasslin" could never be called anything else. To get to the bottom of our peeve. -It Is not personal as we said before. But, we hate phony sports. If wrestling is to go around with the thought, "the people like the entertainment," then why in the name of Sam Hill should its impresarios, promoters, and followers list it as a sport, and advertise a "championship" belt, which if it exists at all, is no doubt as phony as the gang it is connected with? In regard to Oscar, we have this to state.

Too much of the blame shouldn't be placed on him. To our way of thinking, he is strictly the local "house" man, or better still, ticket agent. We make this bold remark because on the occasion of one Antonio Galento appearing in this city, Mr. Oscar went into the auditorium and tried to prevent the Galento manager from "counting the house," Willie Gikenberg, the guy in question, He brought his "beef" to Steve Passas, Paul Bowser's right eye in this city, and you can bet their $10,000 diamond belt which didn't appear later, that Gilzenberg went-on to do his figuring. These are little things.

But, all are shreds of evidence in an indictment which shows the wrestling here to be not of the highest calibre possible. It is proof of what we have been saying right along. Are we a voice crying in the wilderness? GE Girls Win, Go Into Finals With Telephones The General Electric girls came from behind to take the deciding issue from their arch rivals, the ILCOs, thereby earning the right to compete against the Telephone lassies in the finals of the Industrial volleyball tourney which will take place at the YMCA next Tuesday night It took five games to calm hostilities in the semi-final setup as both units turned on the heat from the start GE started out strong to cop the first game, 15 to 6. The ILCOs showed the "stuff which made them the title-holders of the league last fall by pulling out a 15-9 win after Lucy Garabedian Sport Slants --By Herbie Katz, 178, Brooklyn (8).

The third game was nip and tuck after the locksmiths gained an early lead but Lil Taylor came to the rescue of the Broad Streeters with some neat service only to get nosed out 15 to 13. In the fourth, conflict, the ILCOs gained match point only to have the turbine makers retaliate and forge ahead to a 16 to 14 victory. The winners continued to volley consistently in the rubber setto and emerged a 15 to 11 winner. Davida Christian, Lillian Taylor, Peg Pollari, Norma Schoerner, Virginia Kopsiaftis, Eddie Wollacott and Anne Kopsiaftis comprised the lineup for the finalists.

Clem Contessa, Lucy Ciuffetti and Lucy Garabedian led for the losers. Doug Jackson officiated to the satisfaction of both players and spectators. Bowling Tonight At the Putnam Street Alleys General Electric girls. 5 o'clock. TeL Gaz.

Jim Tobin's No-Hit, No-Run Game Sees Only 98 Pitches Delivered BOSTON, April 28--If this city had an election today, the mayor would still be Tobin but, instead of Maurice J. it would be James A. Because the former Pittsburgh right-hander, victim of a heart- tearing tinevhrt- --contest against- Philadelphia on Sunday, came back against Leo Durocher's Brooklyn Dodgers yesterday and threw the exact total of 98 pitches to 29 batters, to earn for the Braves, a 2 to 0, no-hit, no-run verdict To make the day complete, Tobin, brandishing Jthe slowest of "butterfly" balls, took a-bat in hand in the eighth session and drove one of "Lefty" Fred Ostermueller's tosses over the razor blade sign in dead left field.

This home run accounted for the Braves second tally. They had scored the first, and what could have been the winning run, in the third inning -when Connie Ryan, who had been inducted into the navy in the morning, hit his second straight double to open the stanza, scoring after one was out on "Chuck" Workman's, single to TobSn's performance was a piece of pitching mastery. He walked the veteran Paul Waner, the first man up in the game, and then passed "Big Poison," again, this time with two out in the last session. For strikeouts, he-had six. He-got Louis Olmo in the first.

Fanned both Howie Schultz and Gil English, the latter on three pitches, in the second. Got "Dixie" Walker and Augie Galan in the seventh. And fanned "Mickey" Owen, the first batter in the ninth. In the second inning, Bill Hart, the Dodger shortstop, caught the Boston infield napping when he laid a bunt down the third base line. Both Tobin and Ryan elected to let it roll as there was no chance to catch Brooklyn player at first base Well, that they did, because it went foul This was the closest the Qu- -roeher-crewxsme-to getting hit.

It was not necessary for the Braves to pull off any fancy fielding plays, except for Steve Shemo, the second sacker, who went into right field foul territory to take Walker's hoist in the fourth. He made a fine one- handed stab. The Brooklyn ninth was crammed with drama. The 1447 paid admissions to the wigwam, were leaning on every Tobin heave. Owen, the first hitter, looked miserable in striking out Then, Durocher, never to be denied an opportunity to be the "death o'f a good thing" proved the honesty of ized baseball by sending the dangerous Stanley "Frenchy" Bordogafay, up to hit for Ostermueller.

After hitting a foul smash to the chunky outfielder, grounded out, to "Butch" Etchison, Then it happened. Waner came The count went to 3 balls, no strikes. Everyone thought that Tobin would let him stroll, but Jim fogged one in there- and umpire Bill Stewart called it a. strike. Paul walked, however, on the next pitch.

Walker came to the platter. He hit a sharp ground ball to Shemo, who picked it up, hesitated a throw to second and tossed to Etchison at first "to beat "Dixie" by four steps for the final out Jim Tobm walked off the mound, into the Hall "of Fame.
