ON THE LAM ... with Jim Lamhofer Disa and data ... Maybe the Cleveland Indians should arrange to have Larry Doby beaned every so often. Ever since the colored centerfielder was hit on the temple by a Joe Hatten pitch in an exhibition game with Brooklyn a couple of weeks ago, he has been burning up the league. Whereas the usual after-effect of such an incident is to make the victim plate-shy and thus not able to get his best licks in at bat, the opposite has been true with Doby. He has been burning up the league. He socked three homers in one game last Wednesday and slammed two more Saturday. Previously he had been good for 11 circuit clouts all season. His average has risen to where he is now dueling neck-and-neck with George Kell for the AL batting lead... Even though Ted Williams ... Even though Ted Williams has been sidelined for almost a month now, he is still second in home runs in his league and among the top ten in runs batted in. Whatta man! The LA Rams should have a fair country collection or half-backs this fall what with Glenn Davis, Crazy Legs Hirsch, Tommy Kalmanir and Vitamin T. Smith et al. Trouble is they can only play two of them at a time. Tab a quick, fast-moving, Lynx Take Two From Montebello The Buena Park Lynx spent a victorious week-end at the expense of Montebello as they dumped the Oil towners 5-1 and 2-0 on a pair of occasions. Saturday night the greenies bashed out a total of 12 hits to notch their 5-1 win. Ann Babashoff was high for the evening with two for three. The Lynx enjoyed a big seventh frame in which they logged three runs. Singles by Patty Averett and Beverly Meissen, a fielder's choice, a wild pitch and walks issued to Ann Babashoff accounted for the splurge. The Lynx did all their scoring in the first inning in Sunday's contest. Carolyn Broady singled aboard, eventually stole her way to third. She scored on attempted pickoff which wen wild. The bobble sent Ann Babashoff, who walked previously, all the way to the hot corner. She scored on Beverly Meissen's long haul to left field. The victories tied the Lynx with Orange for the Southern California League lead. Both squads have 26-4 won and lost records. They meet in a crucial two-game series this week. Wednesday night the Lynx host at Amerige Park, Thursday night. The Lionettes do the honors at a Shrine club benefit game at Orange City Park. GET BACK THERE!—Anaheim first baseman Carl Hatfield swi Ramella as Compton pitcher Joe Shields skids back to safety. Fifth inning of last night's game. The Anaheimers won it 2-0 to p fully. Anaheimers Nip Compton 2-0 to Gain Second Round Vic Ruedy's Anaheim Junior Legion baseballers m have been asleep most of the time during the recent summ campaign, but they woke up in fine style last night to blan rival Compton squad 2-0 and gain thereby the second round of the current Junior Legion Baseball Tournament at Palma Park. Last night's win pits the locals against Corona wh they next take to the field. Corona beat General Otis 8-6 yesterday to traverse the first round of the baseball extravaganza. Anaheim's win yielded plenty of thrills and chills for baseball fans last night. Superior play by three of the Ruedymen in particular, pitcher Dick Ramella, catcher Ed Herrera and second baseman Ronie Bevins lighted the contest. Most of the crowd was looking for Anaheim to be erased in the initial tourney go. Compton entered the mach with an impressive 7-3 Fourth district summer record. The locals went to bat with a dismal 0-6 slate and four regulars off on vacation somewhere. Ramella had the situation under control most of the way. When troubles cropped up he bore down to minimize menaces. Compton got pitcher Joe Shields on third with two away in the fifth to pose a problem. Ramella solved it by whiffing the next batter. In the sixth, Compton loaded the sacks with none down. Ramella fanned one batter. The next man bunted and everybody moved. But Ramella pounced on the ball, shoveled it to Ed Herrera at the plate for half of a double play. Herrera started the other half as he fired the ball to Ronnie Bevins who had raced over to cover first base. Bevins' quick headwork on way when a pass was issued Gayle Herbel.

But Ramella pounced on the ball, shoveled it to Ed Herrera at the plate for half of a double play. Herrera started the other half as he fired the ball to Ronnie Bevins who had raced over to cover first base. Bevin's quick headwork on this one had fans agog. It dismayed the Comptons no end. But Compton menaced again in the seventh. With two down, a hit batter, a single and a walk again loaded the bases. Then Ken Doniak lined one to Don Carter at short who tossed to Bevins for the final out. Prior to the spectacular sixth inning play, Bevins brought the fans to their feet as he leaped high and speared a blooper back of second base that was practically down in the book as a hit. Herrera brought lasting honor to himself and his ability as a catcher in a fabulous fourth inning play. A Compton batter lined one to snort. The throw to Carl Hatfield at first base was just out of reach and as the ball bounded away, the runner started around to second. But Herrera, mealtime had taken up his backstopping behind first base for the moment. He snagged the ball and fired it to Bevins at second in time for the out. The Anaheimers registered their first run in the initial frame. After Pat Roberts fanned, Bevins and Don Carter drew walks. Jim White then upped and walloped a single which sent Bevins scampering home from second. Bevins registered the second and final run in the seventh. This time he walked aboard, advanced on Carter's single, made third on an error which loaded the bases and then came home the easy ground from all no more.

Furuhashi cracked three world records—all his own—in a threeday dual meet that the United States won over Japan 46-17. He sped to new unofficial marks in the 200, 400 and 800 meter free style races. He knocked nearly three seconds off his listed world mark for the 800 meters last night, grinding the distance in 9:42.8. The night before it was the 400 meters in 4:33.2, or 1.4 seconds better than his accepted world mark. And Friday night he sprinted 200 meters in 2:05.2, two-tenths of a second better than his 1949 world record. American swimmers bettered five recognized world marks, but faster times are up for acceptance in some of the events. The U. S. team climaxed its strong showing with a record breaking 800 meter relay race. It finished in 8:42.8 or 3.2 ahead of the listed mark. Big disappointment of the meet was John Marshall, Yale's Australian star. Expected to give Furuhashi a battle, Marshall finished third in the 800 meter and fourth in 400 meter free style.

Trade In Anaheim Fullerton Legions Bow to Crenshaw In Southland Championship Battles Fullerton's bid for the Southern California Legion Baseball championship came to an abrupt halt Saturday afternoon as a visiting Crenshaw squad swept a double-header 6-5 and 13-7 at Amerige Park. The Crenshaw nine now goes against Oakland for the state Legion championship. The Fullerton men enter the Anaheim Legion Baseball Tournament now in progress. Fullerton fans are burning in effigy a guy named Bill Consalo following Saturday's setbacks. The Crenshaw third sacker literally snatched victory right out of Fullerton hands in the first game of the afternoon. With the score 5-4 for Fullerton in the ninth, Consalo tied up the ball game as he stole home from third. Then he upped and bashed run in the eleventh to win the It was a bitter one for lestons who had spotted ititors three runs in the innings and then fought to establish the one-run edge ninth.

America's Best Seller CONE BROOK 215 No. Los Angeles St. — Anaheim Oaks Eye PCL Pennant Money By JIM HUBBART Associated Press Sports Writer The club that wins the Pacific Coast League championship will pocket about $40,000 this year, and the Oakland Acorns already are deciding how they'll spend the money. Although the season has nine more weeks to run, it is becoming increasingly apparent that nothing less than an act of congress can dislodge the high riding Oaks. Some good teams have tried it and suffered miserably in the process. Nobody gained an inch on Oakland Sunday. All the combatants, one Oaks included, split their doubleheaders. Oakland played eight games at Portland during the week and won half of them. This was the same Portland team which pulled the rug on Hollywood the week before. Yesterday, the Beavers succumbed by 12 to 2 in the first game, but salvaged a 5 to 4 triumph in the finale on newcomer Vic Mastro's ninth hit homer in the last inning. That leaves Oakland still holding a comfortable nine game bulge and relegates the race to a battle for second, third and fourth money—worth $20,000, $12,500 and $7500, respectively. Jim Wilson, Seattle's stylishighthander, needs one more victory to become the first 20 game winner of the campaign. He racked up his 13th victory and fourth shutout. Maglie scattered seven singles, walked four and struck out seven in hanging up his ninth win in the finale. Bob Thomson sealed Murray Dickson's 13th loss by whacking a two-run homer in the seventh. Meanwhile, the Cardinals checked their downward plunge and tightened up the race by taking a doubleheader from the Phils, 7-1 and 2-0. The Cards had lost seven out of nine games and dropped 6½ games behind before righting themselves. Rookie Cloyd Boyer pitched a four-hitter to win the opener, his third straight victory. Veteran terthander Max Lanier tamed the Phils on six hits in the final while the Cards collected only three off Bubba Church. However, the Red Birds bunched two of their hits along with an error to score twice in the fourth inning. The second place Boston Braves advanced to within three games of the Phils by dividing with the Chicago Cubs. Johnny Sain pitched the Braves to a 5-2 decision in the opener, his 16th victory of the year, top output in the National League. The Cubs took the nightcap, 9-1, behind the six-hit pitching of Frank Hiller. Brooklyn missed an opportunity Scrubs, Ritzmen Post Victories Anaheim Scrubs chalked up another Open League basketball win last Friday night as they swamped S. E. Whieldon 38-24 on the AUHS cotirts. The Scrubs engineered a comfortable 17-11 halftime margin and then ran away from the losers in the after-stanza. Ronnie Faulkner and Rel Schmitt led Scrub scoring with eight point apiece. Joe Bruce got nine for the Whieldonmen. Ritz Cleaners edged the Fullerton 46ers 53-52 in the second session of the evening but they had to go overtime to do it. Buckets in the last 40 seconds of regular play by Fullerton forward Bob Yardley and Ritz guard Jess Gonzales knotted the count at 48 all. Ritzman Eddie Heinrich swished one in the overtime to make the score 52-52 and then, with five seconds to go, posted the victory margin with a free throw. Yardley got 25 for his efforts during the evening to lead the scorers. Doug Thamer, Fullerton forward, was next with 18. High man for Ritz was Ed Stringer who netted 13.
