SOX'S WIN
STREAK IS
GIVEN HIT
By JACK HAND
Maybe White Sox fans should try
the black cat and rabbit’s foot curse
on Vic (Never Lost in Chicago)
Raschi.
It worked in Cleveland where the
citizens routed the Eddie Lopat jinx
with a strategic application of one
black tabby and 15.000 rabbits’ feet.
Chicago trusted Paul Richard's
black magic. It wasn’t enough as
Raschi turned back the Sox, 4-2, on
even hits.
Ccmiskey Park customers who
never have seen the husky New
York Yankee ace lose a game must
rate him in the Walter Johnson
class. Both losses in his 13-2 life
line record against .the Sox were
suffered at Yankee Stadium.
But the Sox can concole them
selves with a 3'i game lead and the
knowledge that Raschi can’t work
every day. Frank Shea, today’s foe,
may be a softer touch. Three big
games remain in this first import
ant series of the season.
Raschi smashed the Sox' six-game
win streak last night before 53,490
fans, a new Comiskey Park at
tendance record. The old high was
53,325 for a doubleheader with
Cleveland, May 15, 1949, when old
Satchmo Paige was still around.
Bobby Feller, only one win be
hind Raschi with his 8-1 record,
dusted off Boston, 7-1, to get re
venge for his one loss. It was Bos
ton’s seventh defeat in 10 starts
since leaving friendly Fenway.
Feller ended Dom DiMaggio s con
secutive game hitting streak at 27
games. Dom flied out three times
and grounded out twice. He hit .403
during his streak.
Detroit cut loose with eight runs
in the third inning to smother Phil
adelphia, 9-2, while Dizzy Trout
scattered nine hits for his third win
Tjae Tigers sent 12 men to the plate
in the third to face loser Carl Schei'o
and Morris Martin. Jerry Priddy had
tw'o singles in the inning.
Rain washed out the Washington
St. Louis night game with the Sen
ators leading 4-1 at the end of four
innings.
The National League all-night
schedule was cut to one game by
rain. Chicago at New York, Pitts
burgh at Brooklyn and Cincinnati
at Philadelphia, all were postponed.
They managed to play at Boston
where Rookie Joe Presko of the St.
Louis Cardinals stopped the Braves
with six hits, 2-1. The win gave the
Cards undisputed possession of sec
ond place, six games behind the
idle Dodgers.

BEEF PRICES
ROLL BACK IS
UNDERSTUDY
Price-Wage Controls to Be
Extended-Acheson to
Remain in Cabinet
WASHINGTON, June 9 — 1*1 —
President Truman said today the
whole matter of beef price rollback
plans is under study.
Questioned at a news conference
about reports of a possible compro
mise, the President would not rule
out such a step.
Under the compromise plan re
ported in some circles, one or both
of two rollbacks in livestock prices
scheduled for Aug. 1 and Oct. 1,
would be cancelled.
When asked about this. Mr. iru
man said that he didn’t know, that
the whole matter was under study
by Mike DiSalle.
Price Administrator DiSalle prev
iously had said there was no inten
tion of rescinding either of the two
forthcoming 41 j per cent rollbacks.
Price-Wage .Controls
On the general subject of price
wage controls the President said
Congress must extend the present
regulations that are due to expire
June 30.
“We must meet this issue headon,”
he said in a formal statement.
If controls are not extended, he
said a $30,000,000,000 increase in
defense spending would "stimulate
at least another $30,000,000,000 of
spending by businessmen and con
sumers.”
Mr. Truman said he did not be
lieve it was true that there is any
prospect of a meat strike.
Acheson Stays On
Mr. Truman also said Secretary
of State Acheson has done an ex
cellent job in his testimony at the
Senate’s MacArthur inquiry. Mr.
Truman also repeated what he has
said before — that he doesn’t in
tend to let Acheson leave his cab
inet.

adding two or three more National
Guard divisions and may form some
new Regular Army divisions and
regimental combat teams.
The Army's Chief, Gen. J. Law
ton Collins' expects two or three
more of the state's division to be
federalized.
But, he told reporters who met
him on his return yesterday from
a European inspection trip, the size
of the Army won't mount much be
yond the 1,552,000-man goal almec
at for the end of this month and
probably will be under l.GOO.OOO.
The Army's strength about a
month ago was approximately 1.400,
000. Thus the increase to the June
30 objective would mean 152,000
more men. These are volunteers and
draftees, some of whom will go into
regular Army divisions no* being
brought up to strength and some
into federalized National Guard di
visions which were at about half
their authorized 18.000-man strength
when they came into Federal serv- j
ice.

VANCOUVER, B. C., June 9 —W
—Bob East is probably the only cab
driver in the world to be given an
airolane for a tip.
When East took his fare to Sea
Island Airport here yesterday for
a trip to Victoria, the passenger
learned that East had always want
ed a plane. So he bought him one.
East admitted today he's still in
a tailspin. “I haven't slept since,"
he said.
. A week ago, East took the man
for a short ride and was given a
$100 bill. He said he didn’t have
any small bills and asked East to
look him up later and give him the
change.

HAINES FERRY
NEGOTIATIONS
STILL UNDER WAY
Negotiations were still under way
today, at a meeting of the Terri
torial Road Board in the governor’s
office, where ways and means are
being sought to keep the Juneau
Haines ferry service in operation.
The ferry stopped operation June 4.
Meeting with the board was Rob
ert Sommers, manager of the Chil
koot Motorship Line. High cost and
regulations Imposed on operation
led to its discontinuance.
Meetings are to be held over the
weekend with a solution looked for
by the first of the week. It is ex
pected the ferry will continue to
operate, but probably not under
present ownership.
