First Morning Game I ln '17 Years July 4 NEW YORK, June I the Dodgers and Giants play a i morning and afternoon game at i I Ebbets Field, July .4, it will I mark the first time since 1930 that morning and afternoon en-I gagements will have been con- tested.

They once were regu- larly scheduled affairs in the And Cards Win By United Prest Thanks to two unearned runs, the Brooklyn Dodgers broke a five-game losing streak yesterday when they defeated the Chicago Cubs, 2 to 1, for their first victory on their cur rent Western swing. Two errors by the usually reliable Eddie Waitkus. Cubs' first-baseman, enabled Rookie Harry Taylor to edge Dovle Lade and Emil Kush in a mound duel. Taylor permitted only six hits and shut out the Cubs after the first inning' when Don Johnson doubled with one out and scored on Fn.il Cavarretta's single. The Dodgers tied it in the second when with two out, Waitkus threw high to Pitcher Doyle Lade covering first on Eddie Stanky's grounder, filling the bases.

Lade then walked Jackie Robinson, forcing Peewee Reese home. The winning marker came in the fifth when Gene Her manski was safe on Waitkus' second error and scored on singles by Dixie Walker and Duke Snider. Walker, who was reported on the trading block, returned to action despite a bad hand and led the Dodger attack with a double and his vital fifth-inning single. Deal With Bucs Hinted With the trading deadline extended 94 hnnrc in. lact "l-1 cause June 15 fell on a Sunday, it was reported that a deal was brewing which would send Walker to the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for two pitchers, one of them believed to be Preacher Roe.

Lade, the losing pitcher, yielded six blows in the seven innings he worked before being lifted for pinch-hitter. A total of 20,097 fans paid their way into Wrigley Field to see the only day game in the major leagues. Phils Lose in Tenth The St. Louis Cardinals nosed out the Philadelphia Phillies in 10 in nmgs last night 4 to 3, to extend their longest winning streak of the season to five straight before 12,509 fans. After the Phils hadv pushed over two runs in the ninth inning to tie the score, 3 to 3, the Cardinals won the game in the 10th when Al Schoendienst who had singled, scored from first base when Johnny Wyros ten missed rerry Moores hit in right field.

Jim Hearn started on the mound for the Cardinals and yielded but Phils broke loose in the ninth. Murry Dickson came in to stop the rally and' then pitched a runless 10th to pick up his first victory of the season after seven straight defeats Fred Schmidt, former Cardinal, was charged with the loss. Squeeze In Winner A perfect squeeze bunt by Phil rtizzuto in the ninth inning gave the New York Yankees a 4 to 3 victory over the Chicago White Sox in another night game. With the score tied in the final frame, after Joe DiMaggio had stretched an ordinary single into a double by a great burst of speed, the bases became clogged with Yankees after two intentional passes were issued, mzzuto men laid down a perfect bunt to send the winning run across the plate. Real hero of the game was Tommy Henrich of the Yanks, who singled and scored New York's first run.

and then drove in two more with a triple. The Yanks increased their lead in the American League race to a game and a half. "Yet, harness racing is just now coming into its own as the fastest growing sport in the world." O'Neill revealed that the purse total for harness racing in 1945 was $3,200,000, increased to $6,400,000 last year and scheduled to surpass seven million this year. He also disclosed that in the recent meeting in California was bet for 27 racing days and that the first million-dollar handle day in history was experienced and enjoyed. The big wheel of the harness business is the Grand Circuit, which is a group of cities scattered over the Nation with duly alloted meets on a schedule worked with the parent organization, the United States Trotting Association, and bolstered by certain lucrative purses.

They had a $50,000 pace and a $50,000 trot in California and, of course, the Kentucky Derby, Preak- ness and Belmont Stakes all rolled into one, is the Hambletonian at Goshen, which one year carried $78,000 and this year will be about a $50,000 event. President Credit The big name and great character behind the sport as perhaps everybody knows is E. Roland Harriman, honorary president of the United States Trotting Association. I recall that it was Mr. Harriman who virtually 'kept harness racing alive in its lean years and who has brought to harness racing a prestige unknown before.

One more thing: Harness racing is a typically American sport like lacrosse, flag-pole sitting and appe tizers before lunch. The whole thing started over in Pennsylvania a couple of hundred years ago, give or take a few decades. "And it's the fastest growing sport in the world," O'Neill said, hitting a sports writer on the back so hard that he knocked out a city editor, two reporters, four copy boys and a bartender three blocks away.

Harvester, 4. Pleasant View, Post 1086, 1. By LAWTON CARVER, International News Service Sports Editor NEW YORK, June 17. A bald-headed, bull-voiced cyclone hit the sports department with a roar which said: "Harness racing is the fastest growing sport in the world." Readers of baseball news and habitues of the baseball press boxes will remember this walking, talking tornado by the name of Buck O'Neill. Somehow he doesn't seem quite as cyclonic now as he was formerly, when he argued the finer points of hitting with Cobb and Ruth and Speaker and that upstart Ted Williams, who is no upstart to O'Neill.

To the old baseball writer who now handles public relations for the United States Trotting Association, Williams is one of the grand personalities and greatest hitters ever go sliding up to that plate with the business end of a wagon tongue his hand. But what am I saying? O'Neill mustn't be going around talking baseball. He's a trotting horse ex pert and good will ambassador at large, with and without portfolio and unburdened by privy seal. Putting it another way he's for heck of a man. Trotters Coming Back "Let's not get to talking about baseball and heavyweight championship fights and things like that," he said.

"I want to tell you that there are some things you don't know when you sit down to whip this here typewriter." Like what, for instance, Buck, old fellow, and you certainly look silly going around this way without a baseball score book in your "Like, for instance, when you talk about Whirlaway winning a half million dollars as though that added up to the greatest score ever. Why, Dan Patch back there around the turn of the century earned one way and another an amount estimated at between 000 and a million dollars in pacing races and exhibitions. i strucK out, py noover, Dy crown, Women's Medal For Late Entry International Neics Service ATLANTA, June 17. A last- minute entry, Grace Lenczyk, of Newington, took medalist honors yesterday in the Women's Western Open at Atlanta with one-over-par 77. Miss Lenczyk topped a field of more than 100 of the Nation's top women golfers in the qualifying round over Atlanta's Capital City Country Club course.

She arrived in the Georgia capital too late Sunday for a practice round, but in her first trip yesterday, in company with defending 'champion Louise Suggs, the Connecticut miss put together a two-over-par 40 and a sub-par 37 for the day's low score. Little Louise Suggs, of Lithia Springs, favored to retain her crown, was one stroke behind the leader, with a 78 to tie with three others. Also bringing in 78's were Dorothy Kirby, of Atlanta, Betty Jamieaon, of San Antonio, Texas, and Polly Riley, of Fort Worth, Texas. Another favorite, Patty Berg, of Minneapolis, carded a 79.
