fiTifr 20 Friday, April 20, 1051 DETROIT FREE PRESS No Hits? No Fans No Victories No Tiger Game Watch ers! White Sox As of TODAY Tiger-Central Loop Feud Shoics Radio's Still Alive By LYALL SiMITH- Hey, Tig ose 1 Tribe Finale Called Of f-'TooColcP Weather's Warmer Than Bengal Bats BY LYALL SJHTH Ttt Preaa porta Editor Officially, Thursday afternoon's game between Cleveland and Detroit was postponed because it was "too cold. Unofficially, there were these three reasons: 1 The Tigers had lost their first two games of the season. 2 They had collected the insignificant total of six hits in losing those games. 3 There was no advance sale of any kind for Thursday's scheduled contest. The "too cold" premise definitely seemed premature.

While it was 42 degrees at 1:30 p.m., that still was five degrees warmer than on Tuesday when the season's opener was started in 37-degree atmosphere. BUT WHILE the official cause of the postponement might be debated, there can be no argument over the fact that Tiger bats were "cold." In an attempt to warm them little, Manager Red Rolfe sent the Tigers through a long batting drill after the game was moved back on the schedule. He announced that Southpaw Ted Gray would open at Chicago on Friday with Hal Newhouser slated to return for his second start the following afternoon. Saul Rogovin is scheduled for Sunday duty against the White Sox. Virgil Trucks pitched batting practice, and the way he-' was firing the ball brought varied comments from the Indians who were waiting their turn to get in some batting drills.

"IF HE HAS a sore arm, it must be his left one," quipped 5 All 't Vv NIMBLE ON THE BASE paths as well as quick on the mound is the Giants' Jim Hearn. The New York hurler slides back to first safely as the Braves try to pull a pickoff play from Catcher Ebba St. Claire to First Baseman Earl Torgeson. THE HEAVY DIPACT of television on sports attendance has stolen headlines so much lately that radio's effect has been neglected. But it won't be Friday.

That is when the Detroit Tigers and the Central League bring their radio "boil" to a head in the Cincinnati office of A. (Happy) Chandler (remember erstwhile baseball commissioner. Here's the squabble in a nutshell. It looks simple. It isn't.

The Tigers are threatened with a law suit by the Class A Central League unless they team up with the brewery which sponsors their radio broadcasts and pay $10,000 to each of the four Michigan cities Grand Rapids, Muskegon and Saginaw in the minor circuit. This is the Central League's self -established price for granting permission to the Tigers to broadcast big league games in the four cities. It is the figure the league estimates will compensate for attendance drops if the Tiger broadcast is permitted at the same time games are being played in their own parks. 1 Baseball Law Favors Bengals THE ENTIRE SITUATION already is covered by baseball law. One rule states that permission must be granted by the minor league if big league games are to be broadcast in minor league territory.

Another rule states that big league clubs may NOT pay for that permission. The Central League now wants" the Tigers to violate that rule. In so doing, it completely contradicts itslef and puts a farcical touch to the dispute. As recently as last winter, Central League officials objected to Tiger broadcasts in out-state areas and said they would prohibit them in 1951. This is within their rights.

But the baseball fans in those areas protested even more bitterly a being prevented from hearing Tiger games. As a result, the Central League reversed its views and now says it wants the Tiger broadcasts welcomes them in fact but must be paid, contrary to baseball edict. The Tigers, following both rules, say they will not broadcast their games on dates which conflict with the Central League schedule. But that doesn't satisfy the minor circuit. It wants the Tigers to violate the rule just so each club in the league will be given $10,000 to start the season which opens Wednesday.

Another aspect is that the owner of one Central League franchise happens to be the distributor for a brewery which is not the same one which sponsors Tiger broadcasts. He says he doesn't see why Brewster the Rooster should be permitted to crow in opposition to the lilting phrase of taking a tip from Johnny you-know-who. Stakes Big in Airlane Battle IN THE FINAL ANALYSIS, the Tigers are being made the guinea pig to test a baseball law. Barring a complete reversal of anticipated form, Commissioner Chandler will rule in favor of supporting the law and the Tigers. If he didn't, radio relations between the major and minor leagues would become hopelessly snarled in a soggy knot.

Assume that minor league cities were permitted to charge major league clubs for minor league broadcast rights. What would happen in the congested Eastern areas where minor leagues three and four of them are bunched around a big league city? Each minor league city maybe 20 of them would demand that the major league team shell out for the broadcast. As it stands now, those cities are protected from radio invasion. They would not be if the current law is changed. Torgeson's Single Gives Braves Split Giants Win First Game, 4-2, Then Lose Wild One, 13-12 BOSTON UP) Earl Torgeson's single with the bases loaded in the 10th inning salvaged the second half of a wild double-header for the Boston Braves, 13 to 12, after New York's Jim Hearn won the opener, 4 to 2, with a steady seven-hit pitch- Leafs Win Again in Overtime Nip Montreal, 3-2, to Go 2 Games Up MONTREAL The Toronto Maple Leafs defeated the Montreal Canadiens, 3 to 2, in a bruising overtime battle, winning on Harry Watson's goal in 5:15 of the first overtime period.

It was the third victory for the i Leafs against one for Canadiens in the four games of the best-of-seven playoff series. All our games have gone into i overtime for a record in Stanley Cup play. It was a terrific struggle, played at a dazzling clip before 14,452 fans. BID SMITH took only 38 seconds to put Toronto in front in the. opening period, and 14 minutes later Maurice Richard fired in a backhander for the Canadiens.

Richard's goal and a third-1 period assist broke the record of former Teammate Hector (Toe) Blake for the number of points scored in Stanley Cup 'i competition. He now has 42 goals and 22 assists for 64 points in 56 Stanley Cup games. Blake, who played in 57 Cup games before his retirement two years ago, had 25 goals and 37 assists. Howie Meeker scored early in the second period for the Leafs. It took the Canadiens until 13:49 of the third period before Elmer Lach deflected In Richard's shot to again tie the score.

With a 3-1 lead in games, Toronto now returns home an overwhelming favorite to take the series. The firth game will be played in Toronto Saturday.

BUT STEWARDS Pinocchio LAUREL, Md. (U.R) You So the stewards at Laurel third race, making Pinocchio second by a nose. They Rip Brownies Again, 13-5 Zarilla and Robinson Clout 3-Run Homers ST. L0UIS5 (JP) Al Zarilla and Eddie Robinson each contributed a three-run homer as the Chicago White Sox manhandled the St. Louis Browns, 13 to 5, before a scant gather ing of 1,079 at Sportsman's Park.

The two homers, Zarilla's in the first and Robinson's in the third, were off Al Widmar, the first of five pitchers used by Manager Zack Taylor. The White Sox are hosts to the Detroit Tigers in their home opener Friday. Two of the Browns' runs were on a pinch homer by Ray Coleman in the seventh. All the four-baggers were to the right-field pavilion. ROBINSON ALSO doubled and singled before he turned an ankle while running the bases in the seventh and had to leave the game.

He walked from the field and the injury was not regarded as serious. Chico Carrasquel, the Venezuelan shortstop, contributed two doubles and a single, scored three runs and stole a base. The White Sox, who beat the Browns, 17 to in their opening-day game and nine straight times in spring training exhibitions, erupted for four more runs in the eighth. These came on a double by Jim Busby, singles by Floyd Baker and Zarilla, a hit batsman and three walks issued by Procopio Hcrrera, the Brownie pitcher at that stage. The winning pitcher was Rookie Marv Rotblatt.

(U.R) Dixie golfers eliminated all re quarterfinals of the North and ling job, It took six hours and 41 minutes to complete the twin bill with the second game running three hours and 39 minutes and finishing well after dark with the lights on.

A steady rain fell through the late innings. The Braves blew leads of 5-1 and 9-5 in the second game only to have the Giants bounce back with five in the eighth when Monte Irvin hit a homer with the bases loaded. Sam Jethroe hit two homers earlier in the game. AFTER THE GIANT spurt the Braves took a 12-10 lead in the eighth only to have the Giants tie in the top of the ninth. Finally in the tenth, after Buddy Kerr's single, a sacrifice and two walks, Torgeson broke it up.

The Giants used 21 players, including six pitchers, in the wild affair and the Braves 17 for a total of 38, only two short of the league's extra game record. Chet Nichols was the winner and Dave Koslo the relief loser. The Giants clinched the opener with a three-run spurt in the sixth on four hits, two walks and two Boston errors. Warren Spahn was the victim.

He thinks the spring training grind is too long.

"Four weeks is enough," he says. "That's all an athlete needs to get in top shape. After that he begins to let down involuntarily." Sawyer believes (that Is what's wrong with his team He says the players haven't shown a great deal of pep lately and blames it on Sawyer the long training season. The Phils began their conditioning Feb. 16, just two months before the start of the regular season.

"We were the best conditioned of all teams after three weeks," Sawyer pointed out. "Once the boys got over their aches and. pains, they actually were enjoying the workouts. We reached our peak about April 1. Then came the letdown.

Dykes' "remarks came on the heels of a brilliant seven-hit, 6-1 victory by the Washington a ts Cuban ace, a (Chico) a r-rero. "That Mar-" rero was in mid season form against us," Dykes said, "and he should have been 1 a Dykes he pitcnea all winter in Cuba.

"He's throwing harder than he did when I was catching him a few years ago." Rolfe stated that he would start using Trucks in relief duties soon, "I'd like to let him work about seven or eight innings in relief before I start him, the Tiger manager said. "But he definitely is looking good." His chief problem was not wrapped up in pitching. Although the Indians collected a total of 21 hits in scraping out 2-1 and 4-2 triumphs, Detroit pitching by Newhouser and Diz Trout was excellent. It was plenty good enough to put the team away to a pair of victories had they been given any kind of hitting support. Their six hits off Bob Lemon and Early Wynn included one home run and one two-bagger.

The other four were singles and only once in the 19 innings were the Tigers able to get two hits in any one inning. While Rolfe admitted being discouraged over such a scant hitting proficiency, the fact that the rival pitchers were Lemon and Wynn, two of the league's greatest, made some difference. LEMON WAS the majors' top winner last year wtih 23 victories while Wynn led the American League with an earned-run average of 3.20. "We won't be facing that kind of pitching all the time," Rolfe admitted. "It's a good thing.

"But even at that, we did a good job of carrying the Indians all the way before the breaks made the final difference. We'll win our share as soon as we start getting hold of the bal.
