They Did It! SF Seals Cincinnati Hottest In Grapefruit Loop By JOE FALLS Associated Press Sports Writer The Cincinnati Reds would like to start the National League season right now. They're red hot and raring to go. After losing 12 of their first 17 exhibition games, the Reds have bounced back to take 10 of their last 11 and are the hottest team in grapefruit play. But unfortunately Cincinnati must wait until next Monday before it starts to count. The Reds entertain Pittsburgh Monday, April 16, in the official National League opener. The big thing for the Reds is to get off to a good start. Last season they got away poorly and languished in or near the cellar until July. After that they played some of the best ball in the league and finished in sixth place, 24½ games off the pace. The Reds smothered Washington, 6-1, yesterday behind the one-hit but wobbly pitching of Willie (The Knuck) Ramsdell. Although permitting only one safety—Gill Coan's first inning single—Ramsdell was in continual trouble. He walked eight and hit two. It was a busy Sunday with games played from Baltimore to Beaumont. The Boston Red Sox even played a doubleheader, whipping their Birmingham. Portland Bops Hollywood Twice To Take Command in PCL Chase By The Associated Press Just about everybody said the San Francisco Seals do it. And they finally did—on their 14th try—win a league baseball game. After setting some sort of a record by starting the son with 13 setbacks, Lefty O'Doul's slippery Seals slid over Seattle in yesterday's nightcap 5-0. The Rainiers shouldn't chagrined. It was bound to open. The law of averages with the Golden Gaters. Not in the opener, had Seattle won that—2-1. And Charley Schanz contributed er and a single to help win a ball game. In bowing for the 13th at a row, the San Francisco came dangerously close to league record of 26 years' ing. Back in 1925 Sacramento a mark of 17 straight losses. The O'Doulmen had one ning in the nightcap, pitched four runs on a brace of five walks in the third frame. By virtue of knocking thelywood Stars off twice in a header, 8-5 and 4-2, the Ple Beavers crawled to the top league standing. The Beaver ter than a three-dollar bill won nine of their last 11 stairs. Fans partial to heavy hitting joyed the nightcap. Homes duced all the runs. The B Granville Gladstone's f Although permitting only one safety—Gill Coan's first inning single—Ramsdell was in continual trouble. He walked eight and hit two. It was a busy Sunday with games played from Baltimore to Beaumont. The Boston Red Sox even played a doubleheader, whipping their Birmingham farm club, 20-6 and 13-6. There was some good news for Red Sox followers. Walt Dropo, the ailing first sacker, made his first appearance at bat in a week and lashed out a pinch-hit double in the second game. The Chicago White Sox edged their cross-town rivals, the Cubs, 6-5. A four-run first inning sewed up the game for the White Sox, who won their 21st game in 28 starts. Three teams—Detroit, Brooklyn and the St. Louis Cardinals—were smacked down by minor league opposition. Memphis edged Detroit 5-4; Atlanta scored seven runs in the seventh to nip Brooklyn, 8-6, and Beaumont pushed across three runs in the ninth to shade the Cardinals, 6-5. Sarajevo, where the incident that triggered World War I took place, is the capital of Bosnia province in Yugoslavia. The size and geography of Bosnia is about the same as that of West Virginia.

Phone 2248 PAINT - WALL PAPER Treasure Tones IMPERIAL WALLPAPERS Schaeffler Paints But Gets Second COLUMBUS, O., (P) — Mike Peppe, Ohio State's dapper swim coach, wondered today just what you have to do to win the National AAU indoor swimming crown. Mike's Bucks, who have won three times and haven't been worse than second in the last seven meets, rolled up 58 points in the weekend event in their own pool. The same 58 would have won 25 of the 26 previous AAU championships. But despite that showing, Ohio finished 75 points back of the New Haven Swim Club's 22-man squad which piled up 133—more than twice as many as any team has ever amassed. "We had two firsts, three seconds, three thirds, two fourths, a fifth and three sixth places," said Peppe. "That's good enough to win any meet, but we weren't even close. I never saw anything like it." The answer was easy. The New Hayens, a conglomeration of Yale fresh, grads and varsity, won five events and then added five seconds, five thirds, seven fourths, five fifths and a lone sixth for what Peppe termed their "unholy total." John Marshall, the 21-year-old freestyle from Australia, duplicated his NCAA wins as he repeated as AAU champion in the 1500-meter and 220- and 440-yard events. Incidentally, the Padres outfielder Elvein Adams Seals in exchange for Neil Dan. Adams batted .318 last and Sheridan .288. Sacramento thumped Los les 14-10 and 4-2. The Solon played power in the eighth of the opener, putting to seven straight hits for six runs. The Solons suspended Mike Palm. The pitcher saluted quitting baseball because of injury in the family. He came toimento last fall from the Red Sox chain.

Robbie Mulkey again paced the Lynx offensively as she clouted three hits in five trips, including a triple and a homer. Annabelle Coughenour also homered for the Lynx, belting one with two on in the eighth. The Lynx who opened their practice schedule with a victory over Long Beach on April 1, repeated on Friday night with a 22-2 win at the beach city. The next home contest for the Lynx is on Sunday when they face the Los Angeles Golden Girls. They are in El Monte on Friday. Pitcher—It's horseshoes in this case, not baseball, as Jimmy Risk of Indiana shows the form that made him world's champion. Risk has signed to appear in L.A. Sportsmen's Vacation & Trailer Show, April 12-22, at Pan-Pacific Auditorium. He does incredible stunts with the equine brogans and even was called to the White House to show his stuff several years ago. Risk will appear in twice-daily stage-and-tank program. Masters Win Tops Hogan's Comeback AUGUSTA, Ga., (P) — Nine times Ben Hogan came out of Ft. Worth, Texas to shoot for a Masters crown and like no other Sportsmen's Show Masters Win Tops Hogan's Comeback AUGUSTA, Ga., (P) — Nine times Ben Hogan came out of Ft. Worth, Texas to shoot for a Masters crown and like no other major professional golf title, the pesky thing kept avoiding him. The little Texan who thinks golf is a game to play, not something to talk about, finally came through in his tenth attempt. Ben spotted par eight strokes on four trips around the par 36-36—72 Augusta National course to win his first prestige-loaded Masters with 280. If Ben wanted to retire right now from golf — something he has no intention of doing—the he could check through his collection of titles and find not one of major importance missing. Hogan and Robert (Skee) Riegel, who finished second with a score 282, were all alone at the head of the class. Hogan with a final round 68 whipped third place finishers Lloyd Mangrum and Lew Worsham by six strokes and Riegel, their junior in experience and publicity, spanked them by four. Mangrum and Worsham, both former National Open champions, had 286's to complete the list of golfers good enough to beat par, Dave Douglas shot an even par 288. Twenty-five months ago the sports world wondered about the future of Ben Hogan. But Ben lived through the injuries and broken bones his body suffered in West Texas in 1949 when his automobile and a bus collided. He began his comeback by tying Sam Snead in the Los Angeles Open of 1950. Sam won the playoff. Last summer Ben put his comeback in the past tense when he won the National Open title. His victory in the 15th Masters at 39 years of age merely confirmed that fact when Hogan is in a major tournament field the best thing to do is pick him to win.

He does incredible stunts with the equine brogans and even was called to the White House to show his stuff several years ago. Risk will appear in twice-daily stage-and-tank program.

Trainer H. A. (Jimmy) said today he is still trying figure out what's wrong with Calumet Farms horse. Jockey grooming him for the Baydows Handicap April 28. Jockey Steve Brooks, who Coaltown to a six-furious story over Special Tour 1:09 4/5, said he wasn't sat even though the time was 1/5 second off Bolero's trackord. Brooks said the one world's record holder "isn't horse he used to be." To the 18,000 in the Saturday, Coaltown looked like the horse he was whinned 23 times in 34 starts. But Jockey Brooks had the six-year-old "all when Special Touch came to the stretch. It was a two-horse race horses left the gate flying were close together all the Special Touch was only a back at the finish.

The Sailors thumped the Dodgers 15-7 here on Friday and Ventura tacked on an 8-6 defeat yesterday at Ontario. The Dodgers get another chance to pick up their first win of the year when they face UCLA to morrow afternoon at Westwood. There wasn't much of a chance for the Dodgers on Friday after starter Walter Towns had spotted the Blue Jackets a 10-4 lead through the first three innings. The Tars came back to add five more in the seventh on a lone hit. The Dodgers also put all of their scoring into three innings, but in somewhat smaller packages, tallying once in the second and three times in the third and eighth. Although four Dodger hurlers allowed only nine hits, they also chipped in 13 walks and Towns hit two batters. Towns issued seven of the walks, and the other six all came off Dave Wallin in the big seventh. Dick Cross, starting Tar second basemah, was sculled by one of Towns' close ones and was taken to the Anaheim Community hospital for examination. X-rays showed negative results, however, and he was later released. Towns also picked up the loss yesterday when he pitched only one inning against the Braves. Down 4-1 and 6-4, the Dodgers rallied twice to it up before losing when Ventura put over two Brooks Leading Jockey in 1951 SAN MATEO (27) — Steve Brooks is 1951's winningest U.S. jockey, but is shaded at the Bay Meadows meeting by veteran Jockey Johnny Longton. Brooks, the Calumet contract rider, scored five victories Saturday, including Coaltown's whisker triumph in the $15,000 added Art Sparks Handicap. That gave him 70 wins this year. Johnny Longden, former national champ, is second with 66. One win Saturday, kept him in front of Brooks 32-31 at Bay Meadows. Arthur Anderson, son of a Long Beach policeman, is third locally with 14—and easily the best apprentice hereabouts. R. H.
