In name only, this was the samt

the booming be' of the Rainif:

LIONS-ROTARY CLASH
IN BASEBALL GAME
Free to the public, no gate admis
sion fee, come raip or shine, the
Lions club will meet the Rotary club
in a softball game on June 11. a
week from Monday at the ball park
No seats will be reserved. Nothing
will be reserved, as the all-star con
gregations meet on the diamond for
the first time. Juneau fans will re
member what happened when these
two teams met on the basketball
floor, battling to a 87-to-87 tie. Now
comes a dazzling derringdo on the
diamond.
rne game, n it wan ut --
will be staged to spotlight the open
ing of the Salvation Army Financt
Drive and a “silent offering" will
be taken by passing the hat. Ol
course, paper bills are silenter than
silver, but all this will be voluntary
and hat-passers Jerry Williams, Bit
Whitehead, Val Poor and Jack Bur
ford will be blindfolded so that no
body will be embarrassed for ever
the smallest donation.
It is suspected that both team:
will appear in costume, and the un
fortunate Kiwanis club has beer
drafted to referee the game. In th<
basketball fracas the referee lost hi'
pants.
A bray-by-bray description of thi
action will be made over a publi'
address system so that the shenan
igans can be explained. It is expectec
that there will be several new kind
of fouls and umpires and referee
will be taking their lives in ham
if they try to interfere.
It is hoped that June 11 will b
a rainy day, so that sliding into sec
ond base will be easier in the muc
Spectators, of course, will be dry i:
the covered stands. Hot dogs an
other delicacies will be sold and :
good time will be had by all.
Remember the date — June 11, a
7 p.m. Go early and get a seat.

TRADING DEAL
TALKS START,
BIG LEAGUES
I -
By JACK HAND
Now is the time to hang a "For
Sale" sign on the St. Louis Browns'
Ned Garver.
The Dewitt boys could start a
baseball price war that would make
Macy’s look like Sportsman’s Park
on a dull Mpndav afternoon.
Is Garver for sale? Does Macy
tell Gimbel?
Only 13 shopping days remain for
Boston, New York, Cleveland and
Jetroit before the June 15 trade
deadline arrives. If the Dewitts say
the word, the sky’s the limit.
The new surge of enthu siasm fcr
> Tver follows his 4-0 shutout o:
• Red Sox last night, ending Bos- -
on'. 10-game win streak. It doesn't
take any deep thinking to see Gar
ver’s value. The Browns, a few per
entage points removed from ihe
'ellar, have w»on only 12 gnr.es.
Jarver has won seven.
The Chicago White Sox were
•ained out of their try fur a 10th
■iraight again t Philadelphia to the
dismay of some 30.0C0 at Comiskey
Park. They 11 try again against the j
Athletics today with Joe Dobson
scheduled to carry the heavy bur
den.
They say everything evens up in
the long run. The New York Yanks l
know it’s true. Ten day - ago they
were losing to Detroit when rain
aved them. Last night they were
ahead of Detroit, 4-1, in the fitm
inning when the game was washed
out. The Tigers would have had to
bat in the fifth to make it official.
Cleveland, awakened after a sorry
eastern trip, reeled off its film
straight win behind Early Wynn who
tamed Washington, 2-2. with three
hits. Blanked by Julio Moreno, 1-0,
until the eighth, the Tribe rallied
to win on Harry Simpson’s single,
a sacrifice, walk. Dale Mitchell’s
pinch single and a fly ball.
Sal Maglie moved out front as
the National League’s most winning
pitcher as he coasted to his eighth
straight, an 8-2 New York victory
over Pittsburgh. While Maglie al
lowed only five hits, the Giants
ripped into Pirate throwers for 13
including homers by Bobby Thom
son and Whitey Lockman. It was
Maglie’s ninth win over the Pirates
in 10 starts in his career. He has
beaten them eight in a row.
Brooklyn had pitching trouble,
losing to Cincinnati, 6-5, as Don
Newcombe failed in relief. Joe Ad
cock's two-run single in the ninth
climaxed a three-run rally for the
decision. Adcock was rough all
night, hitting a homer in the sec
ond.
Several members of the 1914 mir
acle team saw the Boston Braves
clip Chicago, 3-2 for Johnny Sain’s
third victory. The Braves eased past
Chicago into third place, thanks to
two walks and a wild throw by Bob
Schultz, and Sam Jethroe’s pinch
single off Reliefer Dutch Leonard
in the seventh.
St. Louis muffed a chance to gain
on Brooklyn when they bowed to the
Phillies, 7-3. The loss left the Cards
two full games back of the Dodgers.
Five runs on five hits, including
doubles by Granny Hamner, Andy
Seminick and Richie Ashburn and
a triple by Jock Thompson won the
game in the seventh.

PITCHER MEYER iS
GIVEN FINE OF $59
■—
BROOKLYN, June 2 —X— Russ
Meyer, hot-tempered Philadelphia
pitcher, has been fined S50 for his,
rhubarb with Brooklyn’s Jackie Rob
inson last night.
The penalty was assessed for1
Meyer's “challenging action,’ and
for “inciting trouble.”
No action was taken against Rob- S
inson.
The players nearly came to blow
several times after Meyer had
dropped the ball and permitted Rob
inson to score in the eighth inning
on a run-down play. That run
proved to be the winning one in
the Dodgers’ 4-3 victory. There was
: some bumping on the play.

careful, or the demons will drive
