Hunts Foods and 'Cyclones' Win Softball Games Last Night
During last night's City League softball double header at City park, Hunt Foods took the Anaheim Merchants in a tight 1-0 game. Ed Farr, Hunt's chuckler, limited the Merchants to two hits while getting seven strikouts.
The bustling Fullerton-Anaheim Cyclones, a new team entry replacing Northrop, who withdrew from the league, whitwashed Koopman's Furniture 7-0 in the first game of the evening. Paul Salzner, chuckler for Cyclones pitcher the shutout, allowing one hit and 13 strikeouts. First baseman Joe Espara carried the big stick for the hustling Cyclones as he hit four for four and scored three of the runs. "Slugging" Joe Juarez collected four walks to score twice.
The Cyclones, as you will remember are the team known last year as Joe's Service.

Farr, of Hunt's pitching staff collected a one hitter shutout, when they defeated Anaheim Merchants last night in the second game at City park.
Hunt's scored its winning run in the top half of the sixth inning as Tohy Plantoni doubled and scored on Jack Pickering's single. The Merchants threatened in the first inning as Frank Perez tripled with two outs, but when long ball hitter Bob Thompson, cleanup man came to bat, apparently Farr had Bob's range as he struck him out to retire the side.

Giles Tells Dodgers Lay off Rough Stuff
NEW YORK UP—The Brooklyn Dodgers have been warned by President Warren Giles of the National league to stop their jockeying from the bench, it was learned today.
The warning, in a letter to Manager Charlie Dressen, was read to the Brooklyn players in Cincinnati Wednesday following the ban.
Anahi Netmen Meet Powerful San Bernardino
Anaheim High school's Sunset league leading tennis team will meet San Bernardino High netters on the local courts in a first round CIF playoff, next Monday beginning at 1:00.
San Bernarino will bring Anaheim an imposing record of eight victories out of 90 matches played in their league competition where the teams are on a par with Sunset league members.
This is the fourth straight year the Colonists have competed in the CIF playoffs. Last year the team lost in the first round to a powerful La Jolla squad. The previous year, Anaheim knocked off four teams in the playoff before losing to Santa Monica in the finals.
The local team, coached by Bill Cook, is composed of Captain Deer Hessel (senior), Paul Billow (senior) Dean Stokes (juniors), Hart Hessel (senior), Dick Hanson (juniors), Floyd Baker (juniors), John Haster (senior), Phil Wright (juniors), Ron Legg (juniors), and Bob Pickard (senior).

Lay off Rough Stuff
NEW YORK UP—The Brooklyn Dodgers have been warned by President Warren Giles of the National league to stop their jockeying from the bench, it was learned today.
The warning, in a letter to Manager Charlie Dressen, was read to the Brooklyn players in Cincinnati Wednesday following the banishment of pitcher Chris Van Cuyk from the bench by Umpire Frank Dascoll on Tuesday night.
The source said Giles wrote Dressen he heard vile language from the Brooklyn bench himself and that Jackie Robinson was the worst offender.
After the letter was read, Robinson is said to have told Giles he never used profane language. Dressen also denied that his star second baseman had used any vile language.
Dressen had no comment other than to defend Robinson.

Take, first, the two swaps which have given Washington a brand-new young outfield of Jim Busby, Jackie Jensen and Archie Wilson, and a potential winning pitcher in Frank (Spee) Shea, whose long-lame arm appears to have mended. No manager can get more out of a club than Bucky Harris. Let's jump the Senators up two notches to fifth place, just on a lunch.
THAT MAKES it necessary to drop the cooled-off St. Louis junior, Ron Legg (junior), and Bob Pickard (senior).

What to do with the Red Sox presents something of a problem. It is contrary to every baseball law for a club to come up with many sterling rookies. It was underhanded, furthermore, for manager Lou Boudreou not to have listed these juvenile wonders on his official roster. However, it's done now and it seems expedient to shove the Bobbysox up a peg into third place.
Let's see, that leaves Detroit without a home and only the fourth spot open. Obviously an awkward situation. The Tigers are eighth at the moment. Some of them are said to be out of humor with their manager, Red Rolfe. Put them fourth, but remind me to feel their pulse again in about a month.
Shop Friday Night 'Til 9
NEW YORK UP—Controlled television of college football will again be possible this fall under the National Collegiate Athletic Association program now being drafted.
It probably will be on a broader basis than 1931 although the survey made by the NCAA television committee through the National Opinion Research Center showed that television does definite damage to college football attendance.
"This year's television will be spread among more colleges," said Bob Hall, Yale athletic director and chairman of the TV committee. "The colleges acted with the full knowledge they are hurting themselves."
Hall, who declared that college football supports the vast recreational and physical education programs of American schools, pointed to the elaborate TV survey based on last season which said:
"Colleges competing with televised football in 1951 reported a loss of one and a half million ticket sales compared to their 'expected' attendance based on the pre-television levels of 1947-48. In contrast, colleges with no TV competition boosted 1951 paid attendance by 318,000 over their 'expected' 1947-48 average.
IN RELATIVE terms this means a loss of over 15 per cent for the colleges competing against TV, compared to a gain of more than six per cent for the colleges without such competition—A 'TV differential' of 21 per cent."
Last year's college TV program presented an elaborate pattern each week. On some Saturdays a single game was televised across the country. On others a game from one section would be televised only in another section.
Aaron Peralta, still nurse bad football'leg, will run varsity 100 yard dash and weakened leg muscle might surprise dopesters.
Little Mickey Gouyd, class 660 man, also is expected to up fairly well in his event.
Bill Walker, class Bee man, is the only Colonist ... see double duty tomorrow. Will run in both the class L and 100 yard dash. Qualifi third place in both even draws the outside lane in e.
Dick Reed, varsity mile find tough competition tonight in his specialty, drawing the heat as his regular conquer Denbow of Orange.
Ira Webber, gutty 880 man run the two lapper for the nists.
The program of events, ning at 1:30, finds Walker the fourth event. Peralta's fifth; Reed's mile the second; Kirchmann's 440 the Walker's 220 the 13th; O'660 the 15th and Webber the 17th.

Hal Gregg Goes After Fifth Straight Tonight Against LA; Rickey Sees Bell
Righthander Hal Gregg, who's developed a marked stinginess with base hits, tries tonight to extend his goose egg string at the expense of Los Angeles in a Pacific Coast elague twin bill at Oakland.
The 200-pound flinger didn't give Portland a run in two games last week. He turned in a no-hit, no-run victory in seven innings and later blanked the Beavers again on only three hits.
A native of Anaheim, Gregg broke into baseball in 1941 with Santa Barbara and after five years moved into the majors for a seven-season tour. Last year he was out with a sore arm, but hooked up with Oakland this spring. To date he has won four without a loss.
Last night the Oaks moved back into second place with an 8-7 victory over the Angels. San Diego held a four-game lead by beating Sacramento 5-2, while San Francisco downed Hollywood 8-2. Rain used postponement of the Portland-Seattle contest.
The Angels and Hollywood are only a half game behind the Oaks.
LEFTY AL OLSEN kept San Diego well ahead of the pack as he spun a neat three-hitter for the Padres. Johnny Ostrowski's homer with one on was the only scoring blow for Sacramento.
Although taking an early 5-1 lead, the Oaks had to scramble to win after they fell one run behind in the eighth. Then Eddie Lake and Jay Ragni walked and Pete Milne singled in the tying run. Ralph Hamner took the mound to replace starter Cal McLish. But Hank Schanz tapped a perfect squeeze bunt to bring in the winning run.
Branch Rickey, the bossman of the Pittsburgh Pirates, came to Hollywood to look over the Stars. The National league club owns a piece of the PCL club. But he didn't see much as San Francisco hustled and hammered to victory.

At a press conference following the game, Rickey said he would talk to Gus Bell today and decide if the outfielder will return to the Pirate fold. Since being sent to Hollywood on a 24-hour recall basis, Bell has been hitting over the .300 mark. But with his boss in the stands he went hitless and was caught off first on a pick-off play.
