2 Anaheim Gazette THURSDAY, JUNE 19, 1952 ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA BEV MEISSEN—of the Buena Park Lynx hurled her team's victory over the powerful Orange Lionettes Tuesday night. Bev allowed 10 hits but kept them well-enough controlled to hold the Orange gals to three runs. She scored one of the runs of her team's total of four. The victory was particularly sweet since Bev faced the mighty Bertha Ragan, who probably holds some kind of a world's record for pitching no-hit games. When not on the mound, Bev holds down an outfield post for the Lynx.

Richter had been the Dallas team's top choice in this year's contest. 'Not Hysterical' Over Attendance In Minor Loops LOS ANGELES. UP—George Trauman, czar of the minor leagues, says he is "concerned but not hysterical" over sagging attendance in baseball. "Attendance this year is spotty, up in some leagues, down in others." Trauman told newsmen. "Attendance slumps seem to go in cycles. However, we are not happy over the millions of fans who are missing from the peak years. Where are they? "The avalanche of radio, and TV broadcasting of major league games in minor territory is doing us no good. I doubt if it's doing the majors any good, for that matter." Trautman said he could not hazard a guess on what effect TV will have in the long run but he said he is confident baseball can and will solve its problems and merit the title of the national pastime. Watching the Portland-Los Angeles Pacific Coast league game Trautman said that if the PCL wants to go major it has blessing "but I doubt very much if it. OOPS!

"That one will draw the money," said Castellani. "Bratton is a good sharp puncher and I thought the fight was close. I knew I had to make the 10th round mine to win and I did." One judge voted 51-45 for Bratton. The other judge went for Castellani 52-48 and Refree Norman McGarrity favored him 51-46. Castellani outwieghed, Bratton 156 pounds to 149 and defeated him for the second time in three months. "I thought I won," said Bratton. "He can't punch, but he's big and strong. If we both weighed the same, I would take him inside four rounds." Castellani required two stitches to close a gash in his left eyebrow and used several buckets of shaved ice to take the swelling out of a badly bruised right hand. Trautman said he could not hazard a guess on what effect TV will have in the long run but he said he is confident baseball can and will solve its problems and merit the title of the national pastime. Watching the Portland-Los Angeles Pacific Coast league game Trautman said that if the PCL wants to go major it has his blessing "but I doubt very much if it, as presently constituted, could support major ball. "Major league operation costs lots of money. Some of the cities, such as Los Angeles, are major now in every respect, but I do not favor one or two cities going major league. After all, the west became great not because of one or two cities, but because of the growth and prosperity of the entire section. The ambitious cities should think of their neighbors and business associates of long standing." Trautman is on a nationwide tour of the minor leagues. Sports Mirror By The Associated Press Today a year ago — Billy Southworth resigned as manager of the Boston Braves, being replaced by Tommy Holmes who had been managing the Hartford team of the Eastern league.

Hogan Missed High Pedestal By Open Loss NEW YORK — If Ben Hogan had won his fourth open championship, we would have placed him without hesitation upon the same golfing pedestal with Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen and would have been prepared to defend our conviction with fervor.

KANSAS CITY — A nine-year-old boy accidentally killed his mother with a Civil war mushket, War musket. The ancient gun had been purchased the previous day by his father to start an antique firearms collection. Mrs. Ellen Sandman, 40, was shot as she stood near the back steps of her home. He son, Mark, had placed a paper cap used in toy pistols beneath the hammer of the musket before firing. Joseph M. Sandman, the father, him without hesitation upon the same golfing pedestal with Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen and would have been prepared to defend our conviction with fervor. Perhaps it is as well that the fierce little competitor failed to bring it off. Our feeling was—and still is—that Ben has won his triumphs over more good golfers than his two great predecessors were called upon to overcome. The improvement in equipment since Bobby and Sir Walter hung up their vivid records equals out, because Hogan's rivals have had the advantage of the same tools he has used. Even so, and with some re-liquance, we are willing to abandon the battle before it might have begun. We have been reading up on Jones and Hagen in Gene Sarazen's book "Thirty Years of Championship Golf," and the squire has swayed us. There is a sneaking feeling that either Bobby or Walter, given the advantage Hogan held at the halfway point at Dallas, would never have let it get away. It seems doubtful that Hogan will have another such chance at his fourth open crown, the one which would irrevocably have set him in a class above the others of the modern group. Ben, like his chief rivals of the past decade, is crowding 40, and next year they are inaugurating a 36-hole qualifying test on the two days preceding the open to take the starch out of ageing limbs. In all likelihood, the 32-year-old Julius Boros is just the forerunner of a whole new line of younger open champions. IF IT IS, indeed, the end of some sort of era—perhaps it will be remembered as the period in which Texans won eight out of 11 open titles—then the reader may be interested in Sarazen's estimate and ranking of the players he has seen in his long and brilliant career. Gene won the first of his two opens in 1922, and 18 years later tied for what would have been a third, losing to Lawson Little in a play-off at Gloucester.
