KRETLOW
SHOWS UP
AS HURLER
By Associated Press
Until now, Lou Kretlow’s chief j
claim to fame was:
X. He received a $35,000 bonus to
sign with Detroit in 1946.
2. He was shipped to St. Louis
along with $100,000 by Detroit for
Jerry Priddy in 1949.
Lanky Lou has blossomed into a
winning pitcher for the amazing
Chicago White Sox. The Sox picked I
him up for a song from the Browns J
last year. The coming of Kretlow ]
into his own is just another feather
in the cap of freshman Manager
Paul Richards, renowned as a hand
ler of pitchers.
Scores Shutout
Kretlow, who failed as a starter
early in the season, faced Wash
ington last night as the Sox opened
their second tour of the east. Lou
came through with the first shutout
of his major league career—a bril
liant 3-0, four-hit job.
The victory enabled the Sox, win
ner of seven straight the last time
they visited the east, to boost their
lead to 3% games over the runner -
up' New York Yankees. The Yanks
were upset, 5-1, by the lowly St.
Louis Browns.
Kretlow, a 27-year-old righthand
er, failed to win a game last year.
Bombers Stopped
Duane Pillette exiled to tne
Browns a year ago, came back and
haunted the Yanks at the stadium.
The slim righthander stopped the
bombers on four scratch hits.
The Browns wrapped it up in the
| seventh when Tommy Byrne forced
home two runs with bases on balls.
The Cleveland Indians moved to
within a game of the third place
Boston Red Sox. outlasting the
Philadelphia Athletics, 8-6, in a
night game at Philadelphia. The Red
Sox dropped a 7-3 decision to the
Detroit Tigers under the flood lights
at Boston.
Cray Turns in Win
Ted Gray turned in his second
victory for the Tigers in spiking the
Red Sox. The Tigers assured Gray
of victory with a five run blast in
the first inning against Harry Tay
lor.
Preacher Roe and the New York
Giants provided the fireworks in the
National League.
Ninth Win for Roe
Roe turned in his ninth victory
without a loss as he pitched the
pace-setting Brooklyn Dodgers to
a 6-2 victory over the Cardinals in
St. Louis. Home runs by Jackie
Robinson and Gil Hodges gave Roe
an early margin and he remained
in front the rest of the way.
The Giants whipped the Reds,
6-3, in 10 innings at Cincinnati. The
victory moved the New Yorkers
from fourth to second place.
Johnny Sain coasted to his fourth
victory of the season as the Boston
Braves humbled the Pittsburgh Pir
ates, 13-3.
The Philadelphia Phillies came
from behind and beat the Chicago
Cubs, 6-5.

BULLETIN—NEW YORK, June
13 —:/p)— Tonight's 15-raund fight
between Joe Louis and Lee Savold
was postponed 24 hours today be
cause of rain and threatening
weather.
Weather permitting, the two aged
heavyweights will slug it out to
morrow night in the Polo Grounds
under the same no ..television, no
radio provisions.
NEW YORK, June 13 —-iJV— Joe
| Louis and Lee Savold predict all
sorts of explosions tonight when
they clash at the Polo Grounds but
even the promise of such fistic fire
works has failed to arouse the fans.
Only about 15,000 cash customers
will shell out about $100,COO for the
make-or-break fight for both of the
aging heavyweight contenders. Louis
ruled a 3 to 1 favorite to win the
7 p.m. PDT. 15-rounder and there
wasn’t much betting going on,
either.
The 37-year-old Brown Bomber
promised his followers a knockout
victory “inside of six rounds.”
Savold, a 35-year-old reformed
playboy who has had more ups and
downs than a kid on a pogo stick,
is confident he’ll do all the blasting.
“I’ll knock him out in five rounds,"
said blond Lee.
Even those bold announcements
have failed to fire the imaginations
of the fans.

DRUG PRODUCES
MIRACLE ON MT.
EDGECUMBE BABY
Treatment of bone tuberculosis
by the use of streptomycin which
revolutionized surgical treatment,
was begun two years ago at Mt.
Edgecumbe Medical Center, Ortho
pedic unit and by now truly can
be said to have produced astound
ing results, according to Dr. Philip
Moore, orthopedic surgeon at the
island hospital.
Dr. Moore is due to leave Alaska
June 15 to report on the hospi
tal's new streptomycin work at the
American Orthopedic Association
| meeting June 20 in White Sulphur
i Springs, West Virginia.
“At least three amazing results
were produced by the use of strep
tomycin”, Dr. Moore said. “Most
important, the use of streptomycin
definitely saved the lives of some
patients. Furthermore, we estab
lished the fact that use of strepto
mycin effected arrest of tubercu
losis of bones and joints in all pa
tients treated, and its use definitely
reduced the hospitalization period
needed to arrest the disease.”
Since the use of the drug was
begun at the Orthopedic hospital
in April, 1949, 100 patients have re
ceived streptomycin treatments, Dr.
Moore said. Work with the new
drug was made possible at Mt.
I Edgecumbe through a National Re
search Council grant.
Miracle Baby
As a specific example of the value
of the drug. Dr. Moore mentioned
the case of a three-year old child
who arrived at the Orthopedic Cen
ter with draining lesions from
tuberculosis of both elbows and
knees. “It appeared that even sur
gery would leave him with Joint
disability", Dr. Moore explained.
“He needed to be built up physi
cally with good food and rest, and
while this was being done, we be
gan the administration of strepto
mycin. Today, that little fellow is
running, and playing ball, with
every indication that complete use
of his limbs is being restored, the
disease can be arrested in him, and
no surgery has been done or will
need to be done. He is truly our
‘miracle baby’.”
While in the states, Dr. Moore
will also present a paper before
the Society for Traumatic and
Orthopedic Surgery at Columbus,
South Carolina. He expects to re
turn to Mt. Edgecumbe about July 8.
