Calvert’s No-Hitter Against Solons Puts Seattle into First Place in PCL
By The Associated Press
Lanky Paul Calvert was nursing a sore right hand today and probably wondering if the no-hit no-run game he pitched for Seattle constitutes his return ticket to the major leagues.
The bespectacled right hander, Detroit castoff, chucked his 4-0 perfecto in the first game of a double header against the Sacramento Solons yesterday. The rampaging Rainiers surged back to win the seven inning finale, 7-2, and vault into first place in the Pacific Coast league standings.
Calvert, making his first start for Seattle, said he offered “maybe a half dozen curve balls and a couple of fast balls” throughout the game. He relied on his specialty, the sinker. Throwing this down-breaking pitch left a large raw spot on his right ring finger.
He allowed four men to reach base and retired the last 11 in order.
The no-hitter was the PCL’s 54th since the league began in 1903, the first since 1948 when Kewpie Barrett turned in a seven inning stint at this same Sick’s stadium. Sacramento was the victim of that one, too. The last regulation no-hitter was in 1947, by Tommy Bridges.
Besides dumping the Solons into second place, Sunday’s exercises also produced other rearrangements. Hollywood climbed from sixth to fourth by polishing off Oakland twice by 8-2.
Local Speedster Loses by Inches In State Meet
By STAN JONES
Long journeys certainly tell on some people and the trip to the state track finals at Berkeley Saturday afternoon seemed to definitely affect certain athletes from the Southern section of the state.
For example, John Parker of San Diego who has consistently broad jumped over 23 feet, could only leap 21 feet, 4½ inches — good enough for fifth spot. His team mate, Charles Powell, placed only fourth in the shot put with put of 54 feet, 7 inches.
Although winning only one event, Jefferson retained its state crown for the third straight year by piling up 16½ points. Training were Fresno, with 10; Taft, 10; Glendale Hoover, 9; Oakland Tech, 9; Delano, 9; Compton, 7; Glendale, 7; Narbonne, 6; Los Angeles Poly, 5; McClymonds, Oakland, 5; Los Angeles Jordan, 5; Long Beach Jordan, 5; Anaheim, 4; Bonita, 4; Grossmont, 4; Oakland, 4; Piedmont, 4; Pittsburg, 4; Long Beach Poly, 4; Van Nuys, 4 and many, many others with less points.

Inning stint at this same Sick's stadium. Sacramento was the victim of that one, too. The last regulation no-hitter was in 1947 by Tommy Bridges.
Besides dumping the Solons into second place, Sunday's exercises also produced other rearrangements. Hollywood climbed from sixth to fourth by polishing off Oakland twice by 8-2.
Last place San Francisco won a pair from Los Angeles, 7-6 and 3-2, while San Diego defeated Portland twice, 3-2 and 2-0.
Johnny Lindell was the hero of the first game at Hollywood. He pitched eight hit ball and batted a double and two singles besides. Manager Fred Haney had Lindell batting in the number five spot. The sweep ran the Star's winning streak to six and marked their first appearance this season in their short pants.
Los Angeles lost its second game at San Francisco when Herrman Besse delivered a wild pitch with a man on third in the ninth inning.
AN IRONIC HIT
EAST LANSING, Mich. (F) — Three Michigan State pitchers combined their talents to limit Wayne university, to one hit in a 3-0 MSC win. The ironic part of the game was that the lone hit came from the bat of Zeke Vogt, former Michigan State athlete who was transferred to Wayne.
Larry Kirchman succumbed to LB Jordan's Jack North in the final stretch run to lose by a toe nail in the 440 yard dash. Winning time was 49.7—the fastest prep time in the state this year. Kirchman was clocked in:49.8 for his quarter-mile.
The blonde-haired Colonist completed his junior year with only two losses—both to undefeated Jack North. North won the CIF Southern section 440 last week by beating Kirchman by one yard. Finishing third in the 440 was Moore of Los Angeles Jefferson; Marcelli of Central in Fresno, fourth and Carter of Burroughs in Burbank, fifth.
The other county entries didn't fare so well. Bob Suess of Huntington Beach who had gone undefeated in the 880 thus far this year placed fifth behind winner Jones of Oakland Tech in a 1:58.4 clocking. Adolph Maya of Garden Grove went unplaced in the mile run.

Magnolia Stars Defeat Tamales
A change of name was not enough to win a ball game Friday night in City League play, as Alex Tamale (formally Ritz Cleaners) went down to defeat before Pete Guadan, who gave up but three hits, as the Magnolia Stars won, 3 to 2. He also registered 15 strikeouts and gave up two bases on balls.
Alex's two runs came in the fourth when all three hits given up by Guadan were turned into the two runs.
The losing pitcher, Ed Bielefeld gave up six hits, two walks and was credited to one strikeout. Magnolia Stars scoring came in the third on four hits producing two runs and the winning run was gained in the fifth on a double by T. Jaques and a infield out moving him to third and scoring on a long fly to the left fielder. No one batter could collect more than one hit apiece for either team.

the Orange Panthers victory over the Anaheim Colonists Friday afternoon at the Orange City Park diamond.
The Panthers exploded for eight runs in the second inning and seven in the fourth to drop Anaheim down into a cellar tie in the final standings of the Sunset league with Huntington coupled with the Oilers victory over the Newport Sailors, 3-1.
Santa Ana completed its season undefeated as they rolled over the second place Indians, 3-1 on the Saint diamond. The Saints have now gone two years in league competition with only one defeat on their slate—a second round setback by Fullerton last season.
Anaheim was up to its old tricks of bobbling the ball—they booted the ball for 12 errors against the Panthers which was enough for the Orange and White to push across 16 runs while holding the Blue and Gold to four runs on two hits.
Orange High chucker, Don Paxton, gave up two doubles—in the first inning to lead-off batter, Jim Holve and in the fifth to Gary Wells. Well's hit scored Dave Moody and Ben Mattox who had both walked. Anaheim's first score came in the third inning when Gayle Herbel reached first on a gratis pass, stole second, reached third on a passed ball and scored on George Banez.

'Pickup Wonders' Holding Up In Majors' Biggest Surprise
By The Associated Press
Another wonder, team in Chicago?
Back in 1906 they were hailed as the "fitless wonders." Today, 45 years later, the Chicago White Sox can be called the "pickup wonders."
The baseball world laughed when the White Sox scurried around during the past winter, raiding rival clubs for surplus material. But nobody is laughing at Manager Paul Richard's amazing ragamuffins now.
How can you laugh off an 11-game winning streak—every bit of it on enemy ground? The Sox completed their road trip yesterday with a sweep of their twin bill in Cleveland, 5-4 and 6-4.
Those two triumphs, coupled with New York's split with the Philadelphia Athletics, moved Chicago to within one game (three percentage points) of the American league leading Yankees.
Here is a club composed of such castoffs as regulars Ed Robinson and Ed Stewart (Senators), Gus Niarhos, Randy Gumpert and Ken Holcombe (Yankees), Al Zarilla, Joe Dobson and Harry Dorish (Red Sox), Nelson Fox and Paul Lehner (Athletics), Orestes Minoso (Indians) Saul Rogovin and Billy Pierce (Tigers), Phil Masi (Braves) and Bob Dillinger (Players).
The Sox won four in Cleveland, two in Boston, one in New York, three in Washington and one in Philadelphia.
Hornets 8th In State JC Track Meet
Led by 6 foot, 4 inch Gary Green, last year's California State High school 100 yard dash champ, the Los Angeles City college tracksters edged Glendale City college, 47½ to 45 2/5 for the California JC track title Saturday evening in East Los Angeles' new stadium.
Green captured the 220 and 440 yard dashes. He won the 220 in .21.9 and the quarter in .43.8 plus anchoring the four man relay from sixth to first. His time on the relay was .48.2. The victory in the relay gave the Cubs the needed margin to win.
Defending champ, Compton, ended in third place while Mt. San Antonio was high for the Eastern conference in fifth spot with 35 points. Fullerton placed eighth with 21 points, Ferguson collected 11; San Berdoo ninth with 19; Riverside, eleventh with 17; Santa Ana, twentieth with five points and Chaffey in 23rd spot with two points.
Leading the Mountie attack was hurdler, Jack Acree who came from behind to win the 220 yard low hurdles, plus placing second to San Berdoo's McAuliffe in the highs. Mountie quarter-miler, Lehman placed sixth in the 440: Hertz, third in the discus and first in the shot put at 48.

Dobson and Howie Judson pitched the double win yesterday,
although Judson needed help from Mary Rotblatt in the second game. It was Dobson's fourth win without a loss. Two long deLAYS by rain caused most of the second game to be played under the floodlights. Lights also were needed in New York and Detroit.
Zarilla was the Chicago batting star. His homer in the seventh with one on provided the winning runs of the second game. Earlier, he had doubled in two runs. It was his two-run double that snapped a 2-9 tie in the first game.
The Sox success was marred by an injury to Chico Carrasquel. The flashy Venezuelan shortstop bruised his elbow and jammed his right shoulder in a collision with teammate Stewart. X-ray will be taken today. Second Baseman Roberto Avila of Cleveland was sidelined with a damaged elbow, injured in a slide in the first game.
FANS LIKE RED BIRDS
COLUMBUS, Ohio (UP)—For the fourth consecutive season, the Columbus Red Birds had the most fans in their ball park on opening day in the American Association. They drew 14,054. Last year 14,-606 fans paid to see the Cardinal farm team open at home.

Two Dons placed in the meet—Frank Mendez fourth in the two mile and Bob Reid, sixth in the high hurdles.
Lynx Win Three From Canadians
The Buena Park Lynx proved their superiority over the London Supremes, a Canadian team, when they took three close contests the past week-end.
Friday, at Fullerton, in a nine-inning contest, the Lynx won 4 to 3.
Saturday, at Anaheim, the Lynx had a three-run spread for their biggest victory in the series. They won 3 to 0, in a seven-inning game.
Sunday, at Long Beach, the Lynx squeezed out a 2 to 1 victory.
