NATIONALS TAKE
HIGH HONORS IN
ALL-STAR CONTEST
CHICAGO. July 12 — (£> — Red
Schoendienst . . . Andy Pafko . . .
Larry Jansen . . . Ewell Black
well ... ,
These are the names on every
body’s lips following yesterday’s Na
tional League stimulating 14-inning
4-3 victory over the favored Ameri
can Leaguers "in the greatest of all
17 All-Star games.”
Maybe you’d better add Manager
Burt Shotton. Enos Slaughter and
Ralph Kiner. For they, too, sparkled
as the victory-starved Nationals
won for the first time since 1944.
Schoenienst was the big hero, of
course. It was his home run into
t'he upper deck of the left field
stands in the top of the 14th that
broke up the three hour and 13
minute overtime struggle—the first,
extra inning affair in All-Star com
petition.
Schoendienst, like the immortal
Babe Ruth, called his shot.
"I’m going to end this thing right
now,” he told teammates Walker
Cooper and batting practice pitcher
Murry Dickson as he selected a bat.
"Watch me hit one into the upper
seats.”
The scrawny-looking 160 pounder
from St. Louis has hit only three
home runs all season in 73 games
In 1946 he went through the en
tire season without hitting any
home runs.
Once at Bat — Homer
Schoendienst, a personal Shot
ton pick because of his defensive
wizardry and his ability to fill in at
either second, third or short, was
batting righthanded against south
paw Ted Gray of Detroit. He is a
switch hitter. It was his only time at
bat during the game.
Pafko saved the game in the bot
tom half of the 12th with a sen
sational catch of pinch hitter Tom
my Henrich’s terrific clout that ap
peared labeled “home run” the in
stant the ball left the bat.
Jansen pitched near-perfect ball
in a five-inning tenure, the longest
National League stint by one
pitcher since Lon Warnekc hurled
four innings in 1934. He allowed only
one hit—a handle-hit single—and
struck out six in shutting out the
American Leaguers from the sev
enth through the 11th innings.
3 Shutout Innings
Blackwell came close to matching
Jansen’s performance, holding the
American Leaguers to a lone hit in
three - shutout innings. The long,
lean Cincinnati right-hander sent
the near-capacity Comiskey Park
crowd of 46.127 home limp from
exhaustion when he wound up
things by forcing the great Joe Di
maggio to slap into a game-ending
double play.
Nearly all 19 of the 25 National
Leaguers who appeared in the
lineup covered themselves with
glory. There was the brilliant catch
by Slaughter of Walt Dropo's sec
ond inning clout that appeared
headed over the center field wall.
There was Ralph Kiner’s titanic
home run that tied up the game in
the ninth inning. Slaughter also j
shone on offense. It was his triple
in the second inning that set up
both runs. Jackie Robinson, who)
led off the inning with a single to
right, crossed the plate on Slaugh
ter's clout to the center field wall.
Slaughter came in with the second
run when Hank Sauer flied to right.
Shotton Shows Them
It’s impossible to overlook Shot
ton. the much abused pilot. Booed
unmercifully at his pre-game in
troduction for his intended bench
ing of Sauer in favor of his own
j Duke Snider, Shotton redeemed
j himself in the -eyes of the fans
i .vith his strategic moves.
[ Burt’s 11th hour switch from
I
Sauer to Slaughter paid off in the
second inning when Enos made his
glittering catch. His move of
Slaughter to right and Pafko to
center in the middle of the game
set the stage for Andy's game-sav
ing grab.
New Receipt Record
The day's receipts of $126,179.51
was a new record. After expenses
are deducted, the cash goes to the
players' pension fund.

FINAL PURCHASE
OF PULP TIMBER
GIVEN EXTENSION
The preliminary award of l’a
billion cubic feet of Alaskan pulp
timber to the Ketchikan Pulp and
Paper Company has been modified
so that the company will have
until August 2, 1951, to qualify for
final purchase of the timber, Lyle
F. Watts, Chief. Forest Service,
U. S. Department of Agriculture,
announces.
Under a preliminary award ma.Je
to the Ketchikan Pulp and Paper
Company on August 2, 1948, the
company was required to meet
certain qualifications for final pur
chase of the timber. The date for
final award lias now been extended
a total of two years. Watts stated,
so the company will have additional
time to complete arrangements for
construction of a sulphite pulpmill
using the magnesium base process.
Commercial application of the
magnesium base process is under

j development at the Weyerhaeuser
| Timber Company's plant in Long-'
view, ‘Wash. Difficulties which
have arisen in applying the proc
ess on a commercial scale make it
impracticable for the Ketchikan
Company to complete the final de
ign for its plant at this time.
The Forest Service agreed to the
time extension because the mag
nesium base process eliminates all
possibility that pulpmill waste ma
terials might pollute the ocean
water and damage the Alaskan
j fishing industry.
The initial pulpmill, to be built
at Ward Cove, Ketchikan, will have
a daily capacity of 300 tons of pulp.
Tin l1.- billion cubic feet of timber
which the Ketchikan Company has
agreed to buy will supply a pulp
mill with a daily capacity ot 325
tons for 50 years.
The sale area Is in the vicinity
I of Ketchikan. The commercial
timber is within six or seven mi"
ot navigable tidewater, with ap
proximately thtce-iourths of the
timber within 2‘- miles.
Watts stated that there is su'f
fici. nt t.mbcr on the Tongass Na
tional Forest In southeast Alaska
to supply five or six large pulp
j mills for all I m • ta come.
