THE BRIDGEPORT TELEGRAM. SATURDAY, APRIL 28, 1951 TWENTY-FIVE Ludlowe Tops Central, Triumphs, 7-5 Galenlo to Wrestle Hewitt Here Tonight Australian 'Tag' Match Adds to Program in K. C. Hall With Tony Galento in the main event and an Australian "tag" 'match co-featured, the Herald Sportsmen's club tonight presents its annual benefit sports show in the form of a pro show of C. hall.

The opening bout is set for 8:30 p.m. The attractive offering is intended to raise funds for the club's yearly "Boys' 1 a free trip to Yankee Stadium -for hundreds of Greater Bridgeport youths, Galento, who nearly flattened Joe Lou in for keeps in a title match, rough and tough Tarzan Hewitt of Toronto, in the one-fall to-a-finlah star bout. In the aeml-final tag- match, in Volving a quartet of hard-bitten grapplers, George Linehan, of Boston, and Johnny Heideman, of the Bronx, will go to the mat with Mike Xilonis, of Greece, and Argentina Faieta, of South America. This match will be two out of three falls. The program will be completed by a curtain-raiser pairing Chief Little Fox and bearded Col.

George Harben, of Stone Mountain, Ga. It's scheduled for one fall or 30 minutes, Galento, once one of the most feared heavyweight fighter, has'lost none of his tough reputation since turning wrestler four years ago. His opponents have found him even harder to beat than his old fistic foes. He is the same burly mauler who dishes out punishment and Uses the old expression for which h'e's most famous: "I'll moider da bum!" In Hewitt, he meets another furious rival who prepped for being a mat villain in the rugged game of pro hockey. The Linehan-Hcideman tussle with the Kilonis-Faieta team should generate the wildest kind of a brawl because there's never been a match that failed to get out of hand.

The participants always break the rules and the result is unrestrained warfare. The Little Fox-Harben battle should get the show off to a flying start, setting the pattern for a festival of thrills. Frank Cerlanek, of Cheshire, the new state athletic commissioner, will attend the show. INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE Baltimore Montreal nil) 4 4 Trlnfelo (6) Moore and Atwell. and OR wild: R.

Ill AND HILLYER DUEL IN The University of Bridgeport baseball team, which has lost three straight games, will travel to Hartford today to clash with the Hillyer College squad at 3 p.m. in Municipal Stadium. It will be the fifth diamond meeting of these collegiate rivals and in the four previous get-togethers, Bridgeport has been able to garner only one victory over the Fighting Hawks of Hillyer.

second-sacker, in last year's opening game The Fighting have won two games in three starts this season to date. They whipped New Britain Teachers, 9-5, and clubbed Willimantic Teachers, 10-2, after an opening 9-5 setback by New Haven Teachers. Lefty George Brown or Lionel McCabe of Hartford will receive the starting mound assignment from U.B. Coach Herb Glines. It is more than likely that Brown will work this one as he has seen little pitching service since the Purple Knights opened the season two weeks ago, Emmet Lyon, team captain, will be replaced behind the plate by Bob Gold, Lyou has been complaining of a sore arm, trying to cut down runners at second base.

Another change in the U. B. lineup will be the benching of left- fielder Bob who -was the team's leading hitter a year ago but has failed to come through on the first three games. Andy Olayos has been selected to fill in for Cox. The U.B.

infleld will remain intact with Lou Saccone at first base; Joe lovino and Budney in the middle spots, and. Steve Michaels at third base. Johnny Longo and Hal Trisch- man will perform in center and right fields, respectively. Either Ed Lehan or Jerry D'Apice will be- Hillyer's starting pitcher, with Joe Phillips doing the catching. Lehan beat New Britain Teachers, but was a loser against New Haven Teachers.

Pitcher John (Sonny Boy) Forizs acquired hie 19th consecutive win for the North Paraders since 1949 relief role, after replacing starter Don Craig with two out in Danbury half of the sixth inning.

He allowed one hit in the seventh but struck out batters and held Danbury scoreless.

With the score tied at 5-5, Lubas led off for Stratford in the last half of the sixth by hitting a to third-baseman Bob Mahana and was safe on an error.

Shea, Stanfield Break Marks in Penn Relays PHILADELPHIA, April 27--(AP) Army's fluid running two miler Dick Shea, and Seton Hall's broad jump star, Andy Stanfield, sent the 67th Penn relays off on a record- breaking note today under a warm sun at Franklin field.

Shea unleashed a tremendous burst of power on the final lap to win the individual two mile championship in 9 minutes, 11,8 seconds, eclipsing the 0:12.2 mark set by Greg Rice of Notre Dame in 1944. Stanfield, who doubles as a crack sprinter, erased the 21-year-old broad jump record by leaping 25 feet 4 1-2 inches in trials for tomorrow's finals. That waa a quarter of an inch farther than Edward Hamm of Georgia Tech jumped in 1930 to establish the old mark. If Stanfield or another competitor beat the jump tomorrow it goes into the books. The cinder faithful predicted that weather, continuing, more records will go by the boards tomorrow, when most of the major titles-will be decided.

One of the great miles of-recent times may be piroduced in the Benjamin Franklin feature,) involving America's premier miters, Don Gehrmann and Fred Wilt, and England's highly-touted Bannia- ter, rated Britannia's best since Jack Lovelock. Spartans Stt Record DES April 27--(AP A) quartet of surprising nailers from Michigan State college today blazed to a new four mile relay record in the 'opening of the 42nd annual Drake relay carnival. The Spartans, with Warren Druetzler running a 4:15.8 anchor mile, snatched victory from Washington State College in 17.21.2 to knock eight and four tenths seconds off the Drake record of 17.29.6 established by Oklahoma A A-M 12 years ago. Druetzler's margin at the finish over Washington's Bill Parnell feille champion of the British Empire, was five yards. Michigan finished third with Arkansas, fourth and Missouri fifth.

Two other records also fell as 1,893 athletes from universities, colleges and high schools stretching from the Pacific Coast, to the deep south and'midwest began their two day assault. Drake's 880-yard relay team of Jim Ford, Jack Kelly, Ray Eiland and Jim Lavery thrilled the home town folk with record-smashing performance in the second heat of the preliminaries. Loyola of Chicago, with Bill Conrardy grabbing the lead in his anchor came up with a new record in the college distance medley, The Chicagoans were clocked in 10:26.3 to wipe out the 10:34.7 mark by Beloit last year, the first time the event -was held at Ruiz cf 3 0 0 0 1 Sfeland xx 1 0 0 0 Ol HGLland 2b 1 0 3 Oj Barchl KB 3 0 1 1 ETdwards If 4 1 1 2 rf 1 0 0 0 3b 3 0 0 3 1 Kteras lb 2 1 0 4 1 D'leavy Porcy 1 1 0 4 1 1 0 1 0 0 Station lb 0 0 0 1 01 S'onelll B'elizna 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 Pawlafc SB 2 1 1 0 3 Kopchlk 3b 2 0 1 1 1 N'oble 3b 1 0 1 0 1 Burns lb 3 1 0 1 ForlzB cf-u 3 0 0 0 0 We.stman If 2 1 1 2 0 Barber rf 3 1 1 0 0 Lubas 2b 2 2 0 1 1 V.

O'Sullivan, Murray To Clash in Finals Dl MAGGiO'S ARM STIFF, WILL UNDERGO X-RAYS BOSTON, April 27--(AP) Joe DiMaggio, star New York Yankee outfielder, complained after the game with the Boston Red Sox today that his right shoulder 'felt stiff. He will enter Lenox Hill hospital in New York tomorrow morning to undergo x-rays and an examination of the shoulder. If the examination shows no extensive damage Joe is expected to be in the lineup as usual against Washington in the Yankee Stadium tomorrow. He explained after today's game he has been unable to throw properly for the past two days. BASEBALL BERTH CINCINNATI, April 27 (AP) Walter Mulbry jumped the gun on his own resignation as secretary- treasurer of baseball today, walked out of his office and purportedly paved the way for a new deal in the management of the national pastime, At least, that is the picture, based on developments in the last 24 hours.

Those developments: The executive council of baseball was told that Commissioner A. B. Chandler would not resign--following failure of reelection--unless Mulbry former friend, now bitter enemy, got out of the picture. Mulbry did so today. His formal resignation was presented to the executive council on March 12.

The council asked him to stay on the job. Today, he said he had had enough of his $30,000 a year job. That followed word from New York yesterday that Chandler tola the council he only would quit a year ahead of the end of his seven- year contract after Mulbry left. His $65,000 a year tenure ends April 30, 1952. Baseball club owners offered to pay the contract, Chandler, at his home in Versailles, told a reporter only that he had appointed George Denman to Mulbry's job.

Denman, a former private detective in Chicago has been with the commissioner's office since it was established under the late Federal Judge K. M. Landis. Connecticut Girl Eliminates Marjorie Lindsay, 4 and 3 By KEN ALYTA PINEHURST, N. April 27-(AP) Two roommates who share desk work at a resort hotel in nearby Southern Pines today gained the finals of the North and South Women's Amateur golf tqurnament.

Defending champion Pat O'Sullivan of Orange, and Mae Murray of Rutland, scored impressive semifinal victories to move into an 18-hole championship match tomorrow that each alternately welcomed and dreaded. Miss O'Sullivan shot one under par golf to win, 4 and 3, from Marjorie Lindsay of Decatur, 111., her second round conqueror two years ago. Miss Murray was even with par in romping to a 6 and 5 victory over Charlotte DeCozen, of Parsippany, N. the upset queen who put out Dorothy Kielty and Mrs. Estelle Lawson Page in early rounds.

The Murray-O'Sullivan match just failed to come about a year ago when Mrs. Page eliminated Mae in the semi-finals and went on to lose to Miss O'Sullivan in the champion- shin match. For two winters the New England girls, both 24-years-old, have worked at the Mid Pines club. Hardly a day has passed without the two playing a few holes together. They have met in tournament play twice in th'e past two years and each time Miss O'Sullivan was the winner, two up in a Pinehurst Silver Foils tournament final a year ago, and 3 and 2 in the quarterfinals of Florida's Helen Lee Doherty tournament, Each has about come of golfing age in the past year.

Miss Murray was national tournament runner up to Beverly Hanson last summer. Miss O'Snilivan, daughter of Judjere P. B. O'Sullivan of Connecticut's Supreme Court, took the Augusta, Titleholders' event last month. Both have won their state championships several times.

Miss O'Sullivan seemed to petin- suiration from a national figure whom she greeted during her match. He was defense secretarv George C. Marshall, a winter resident here. She boosted her lead to four UT with winning fours on the 13th and 14th as Miss Lindsav was trapped each time. On the 14th Pat's second came to rest near a tree trunk but a beautiful iron shot left her three feet from the hole.

She won that with a birdie four. They halved the short 15th and the match was over. Miss Murray, after halving: the first two holes with Miss DeCozen, won three in a row. A birdie three on seven put Miss Murray four up. She lost her only hole at the eighth when she needed a one-over six.
