WHITE SOX
COME UP IN
AMER.LEAG.
By Associated Press
"I don't pick anybody to beat the
White Sox.” That’s how Paul Rich
ards, manager of the Chicago White
Sox, sized up the American League
race opening day.
So far he’s right.
Chicago’s freshman manager is
proving he can win the majors as
well as in the minors. Richards
served a brilliant minor league ap
prenticeship that included stops at
Atlanta, Buffalo and Seattle.
Richards was firmly behind last
winter’s trade that sent starting
pitchers Ray Scarborough and Bill
Wight to the Boston Red Sox for
outfielder A1 Zarilla and Pitchers
Joe Dobson and Dick Littlefield.
Zarilla plugged a gap in right
field and today is tied for the league
lead with 18 runs batted in.
Misses No-Hitter
Dobson failed to impress until
last night when he missed turning
in the second no-hit no-run game
of the season.
Dobson, 34-year-old righthander,
pitched the Sox into a third-place
tie with Cleveland by beating the
Indians, 12-1, before 17,138 fans at
Commiskey Park.
Dobson had a no-hitter until the
eighth inning when Pinch-Hitter
Bob Avila broke the spell with a
two-out double. The Indians scored
in the ninth on two walks and an
error on a potential double play ball
Seven Run Spree
Ti c Sox hammered Early Winn,
Steve Gromek and George Zuverink
for 14 hits, wrapping up the decision
with a seven-run spree in the sev
enth off Gromek.
Dizzy Trout turned in his first
victory of the season as the Detroit
Tigers humbled the Browns, 7-1,
under the lights at St. Louis.
The Chicago Cubs treated Cliff
Chambers like a semi-pro pitcher
as they pounded the Pittsburgh Pir
ate, 10-4, in the only game played
in the National League.
flight games between Philadel
phia and New York, St. Louis and
Cincinnati and Brooklyn and Bos
ton were postponed because of rain
and cold. Boston, New York, Wash
ington and Philadelphia in the
American League were idle.

Foul Ball and Sore Heads
Joe Garagiola, St. Louis Cardinals catcher, leans into New York City’s
F.bbetts Field box in an attempt to grab Dodger’s Gil Hodges foul
(arrow, top picture). However, a fan trying to escape the ball bumps
heads with Joe and (bottom) teammates rush out to help ease his
aching head. Garagiola got up to resume the play and the fan con
tinued to watch Cardinals win. (IP) Wirephoto.

Decision in
j
Hairston Go
NEW YORK, May 12 —W— “No
guts, eh? So I can’t take it? I
showed ’em. I showed 'em. I had to
do it. I knew I could. I had to win
this one if it was the last thing
I ever did.”
Walter Cartier was talking,
stretched on a table in his dressing
room. He had just beaten Eugene
(Silent) Hairston on a split 10-round
decision after being knocked down
twice for nine in the first two
rounds. The end of the brawl, Hair
ston was down for an eight-count.
He was just trying to get up when
the last bell rang.
That knockdown and three rounds
taken away from Hairston on fouls
gave Cartier the nod in the first
Madison Square Garden fight since
the circus left.
When Cartier withdrew from a
December date with Hairston they
said he was running out, questioned
his courage. But he wound up in
the hospital with pneumonia. This
was his first comeback start. He
had beaten Hairston back in 149
but the silent one had improved
vastly since.
"Now I want Ray Robinson for
the title,” he spouted.

LIMIT PLACED ON
WHEEL? USED IN
SOAP BOX DERBY
Official Soap dox Derby wheels
made before 1948 cannot be used
6n your 1951 racing car!
That, boys is a safety rule, which
was introduced in 1950. This rule
will be enforced strictly in local
races and at the National Finals.
It was designed to put all com
petitors on an even basis, because
all official wheels made in 1948
and since are alike. Added safety
was a strong factor in the decision
of the National Rules Committee
to continue this rule.
The wheels made in 1948 and i
thereafter are painted red. Wheels i
made before that time were yellow \
or gold. Only originally-painted 1
red wheels will be permitted on ,
1951 Derby racing cars.
If you use official wheel-and-axle J
sets, you will find the wording I
“Chficial Soap Box Derby Tire” on '
the rubber tread. The wheels must

iglnal paint be removed; bearings
