Is Ball Really j
Dead, or Are
Pilchers Good!
Shutouts Almost Equal
Last Year's Total—
Nobody Can Hit Nothin'
By the Associated Press
Is this a pitchers’ year or doe
Ted William; know something when
he insists the ball is deader?
Look what happened yesterday
Early Wynn protected Cleveland''
one-game lead over the New York
Yankees in the American league by
besting Philadelphia’s Satn Zoldak
in a 1-0 hurling duel. A home rut.
by Bob Kennedy settled the issue.
Streak Ends
Brooklyn increased its National
League lead to six games as rookie
Clem Labine outpitrhed Cincin
nati’s Howie Fox. 3-1. while Pitts
burgh’s Howie Pollel blanked
Sheldon .Tones and the runner-up
New York Giants, 2-0, to end their
lfi-gatne winning streak.
Max Lanier of the St. Louis Cards
shut out Bubba Church and the
Philadelphia Phillies, 2-0. and Omar
Lown of the Chicago Cubs white
washed Chet Nichols and the Bos
ton Braves, 1-0.
The highest run total was made
by the Yankees, who defeated the
St. Louis Browns 7-5 in 10 in
nings and they needed 13 walks by
Tommy Bvrne The Detroit Tigers
nipped the third place Boston Red
Sox, 5-4. Chicago’s White Sox
took a 4-3 decision from Washing
ton in" 10 innings.
Few Hits
Not one of the 10 teams got as .
many as 10 hits. It was the same
story on Monday when four shut
outs including two three-hitters and
a pair of two-hitters were pitched
although six teams were idle.
Altogether 79 shutouts have been
hurled thus far in the National to
only 81 last year. The American i?
only one short of last year's entire |
shutout output of 62.
Lfghlwesqht Champ
'Robbed' o! Decision
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 29 — W —,
World lightweight champion Jimmy .
Carter of New York will take his]
slightly tarnished crown back east
in a few' days, swearing he will (
never defettd it in California.
“We were robbed once. Never
again.” , i
So spoke his manager, Willie I
Ketchum, in a bitter aftermath of
Carter’s loss in a 10-round fieht
last night to Art Aragon, so-called
"golden boy" of Los Angeles.
Cocky Aragon grabbed the split,
decision before a sellout crowd of
10,400 fans who paid $47,833 gross
to witness the non-title match.
Refrree Abe Roth gave Aragon
the decision by six points, while
Judge Joe Stone voted for the
champion by two points. The
Associated Press scorecard coin
cided with Slone’s.
The defeat, tenth in 09 fights for
Carter, came as a surprise to many
of the ringsiders who had installed
him as the favorite, and proved a
distinct shock to the New Yorker
and his handlers.

Draff CcrnMs
Sale of Seals the Big
Question-Rain KO's
Scheduled Games
SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29—(A1
Directors of the Pacific Coast League
hold a special session today con
fronted with two big questions:
What’s to be done with the San
Francisco Seals?
What’s the answer to the major
league draft?
The latter problem is the reason
the meeting was originally sched
uled. Rumors around that the
league may defy the big loops and
refuse to honor the draft.
The majors can draft a FCL
player for SlO.OOfl—regardless of
what the minor club paid for him.
That’s one of (he reasons given
by Paul I. Fagan for selling the
Seals and abandoning baseball.
Fagan, in resigning as n league
Jirector Saturday, asked PCI. Presi
dent Clarence (Pants) Rowland to
?ell the Seal franchise and players
[or him—considering the price is
-ight. He won’t sell his S1.200.C09
uall park, however. lie wants to
ease it.

Louis Sips So Meet
Marciano Ocf, 11
NEW YORK, Aug. 29—Ufl—Joe
Louis, former world heavyweight
champion, agreed yesterday to meet
Rocky Marciano of Rrockton, Ma ;s„
-n a 10-round bout in the New York
Polo Grounds on Oct. 11.
The bout with Marciano, one of
the world’s better young heavy
weights, fills the gap in the Louis
chedule caused by the defeat of
Hzzard Charles by Jersey Joe Wal
cott in their recent heavyweight
itle scrap. Louis was all set to
neet Charles, the favorite, when
Walcott upset the then champion.
Jim Norris, president of the IBC
orporation. said the price for ring
ide seats would be $25. Louis will
et 45 percent of the receipts, Mar
iano 15. No announcement v.as

NEW YUKK, Aug. 29—'JPl—There
wore indications today that a dcid
; lock is developing among the Hi
, major league baseball club own; r?
! over election of a new commissioner.
This could pave the way for choic
of a dorkherse candidate.
The owners meet in Chicago Sept.
20 legally empowered to elect a suc
cessor to A. B. Chandler in tlr
game's top job, paying $65,000 or
$75 000 yearly.
At a meeting in New York Aug
121 the field was winnowed down
to five men:
General Douglas MacArthur.
Milton Eisenhower, president of
Pennsylvania State College.
Ford Frick, president of the
National League.
Warren Giles, president of the
Cincinnati Reds.
Frank J. Lausche, Governor of
Ohio.
It is beginning to look as if none
of these, even if available, could
command the 12 votes needed for
j election.
Darkhorses
In the darkhorse field are two
I well known figures who for one
! reason or another were not included
I in the "famous fiVe” that repre
| sented the considered choice of the
baseball (rowers.
These arc James A. Farley,
chairman of the hoard of Coca
Cola Export, and George Traul
man, czar of the minor leagues.
Now a new name has cropped up.
It is Benjamin H. Reese, who re
tired this year as managing editor
of I he St. Louis Post-Dispatch. He
is known to have support among
the big league owners.
I At any event there will be a
i grim, no-holds-barred session in
| Clricago Sept. 20.
'■ NEW YORK, Aug. 29—7PI—Wel
, terweight champion Kid Gavilan
! confident and at the peak of his
; form, was rated a hefty 13 to 5 fav
| orite to whip Billy Graham of New
i York in their 15-round title bout
at Madison Square Garden tonight.
Although he lost one split deci
; ion to Graham and won the same
way in the return, the sleek, flashy
Cuban has-been" made civc big tthoice
on the strength of his recent form.
The 25-year-old Gavilan is riding
a ten-fight win streak which.began
with his revenge victory over Gra
ham on Nov. 17. 1950. The slick
j boxing New Yorker had edged the
I colorful Cuban nine months before.
! This will be Gavilan’s first title
[defense since he-won the crown by
i trouncing Johnny Bratton in the
| Garden on May 18. A crowd of
| around 9,000 is expected to pay
