Ruth Waldo Breaks Up 20-Inning Marathon; Lynx Post 1-0 Victory Junior Netters Edged in Long Beach Tourney Anaheim lost its last hope in the National Junior Public Parks Tennis Championships as all local contenders ran into seeded and ranked players during the second day of play on the Lakewood courts in Long Beach yesterday. Inspired by the high quality of play in the national matches which drew players from all sections of southern and central California, the local netters, even in defeat put on a very creditable performance against their more experienced opponents. In the girls' doubles Mary Flynn and Joanne Kellogg of Anaheim extended Barbara Butt and Marjorie Gibbens of Santa Monica to the three set limit before losing 6-1, 1-6, 6-3. Miss Flynn and Diek Hanson then teamed in the mixed doubles to oppose top-seeded Nolle Siman and Brooke Grant of Pasadena. After dropping the first set 6-3, the local players hit their stride and had Miss Suman and Grant on the short end of a 5-3 count in the second set, but finally lost the decision on a close 8-6 score. Hanson formed the last doubles combination with Floyd Baker of Anaheim, with Rightfielder Ruth Waldo was the heroine of a 20-inning melodrama played last night in Buena Park as the Lynx edged out the Phoenix Ramblers, 1-0. Waldo, a hustling outfielder, drew credit for not only chopping off the only Rambler threat, but also driving in the winning run. A tight ballgame that saw Lynx pitcher Tommie Slappey give up only five hits in the 20-inning marathon, the fift saw Lynx runners take, to the base-paths time and again without being able to bunch their 11 hits into a single tally. In the 14th inning Rambler Margaret Dawson finally hit the ball with a solid crack that sent it deep into right field, and even as fans rated it at least a solid triple, Ruth Waldo sprinted back under the long ball and made a spectacular stretching-catch against the wall. In the 20th the Lynx came to bat with one out, Carolyn Broady got the rally going with a single. Mahoney sacrificed her to second and got on herself via the error route. Lockabey then made first on a fielder's choice as Broady was tagged at third. With runners on first and second, Ruth Waldo stepped up to the plate to pound out a single that scored Mahoney to win the game. Next game for the Lynx comes Friday as they meet the league Hanson then teamed in the mixed doubles to oppose top-seeded Nolle Suman and Brooke Grant of Pasadena. After dropping the first set 6-3, the local players hit their stride and had Miss Suman and Grant on the short end of a 5-3 count in the second set, but finally lost the decision on a close 8-6 score. Hanson formed the last doubles combination with Floyd Baker of Anaheim, with whom he holds the Sunset League championship, but lost in the quarter final round to the Grant brothers, Gregg and Brook of Pasadena 6-3, 0-2. The one-sided singles scores were no indication of the real caliber of the play with most games being deceived repeatedly and only one point separating the winner from the loser. Joanne Kellogg lost to Nolle Suman 6-3, 6-1; Floyd Baker was outman-evered by Brooke Grant 6-1, 6-1, and Judy Lamori lost a decision to Susie Suman 6-1, 6-1. Local players will now turn their attention to practice for the Santa Ana Open Championships which get under way in the adult divisions on Saturday and in the junior rounds on Tuesday. A Southern California-sponsored tournament which counts for yearly ranking, the Santa Ana matches annually draw a large field from the entire southland. Local players who have already sent in their entries in the various events are: Julian Matinez, Mary Flynn, Jean and Anne Williams, Karen Lenain, Dick Hanson, Ronnie Legg, Phil Wright, Judy Debevec, Joanne Kellogg, and Floyd Baker. The 1952 West Virginia basketball team set a school record with 804 points over a 27 game season. $1000 is very Important! Watch the Gazette for Details TODAY'S CROSS-WORD PUZZLE A glance through the records discloses that the 16 major league clubs have within the past five seasons employed a total of 42 managers, with a couple of months still to go in the current scramble. A team which isn't paying salaries to at least two pilots, past and present, is considered a reactionary. Quick, now, and with no coaching, name the manager who has enjoyed the league.

If Paige had spent his in the majors, instead oing around the exhibition in the Negro leagues, have been a sure thing U.S. Troffers Will Face Wildy Track in Hambletonian GOSHEN, N.Y. (AP)—Sixteen finely tuned horses bring their argument for the 3-year-old trotting championship down to Bill Cane's triangular - shaped Good Time park track today—weather permitting. Rain interrupted their plans, to settle the argument yesterday, turning the racing strip into sticky, holding mud. It still was coming down early today and plenty of sunshine was needed to forestall another postponement. Rained Out Several thousands fans already were milling around the track when Cane decided there had been too much rain to permit the valuable equines to take the track in quest of the purse of $87,637.55—second richest in the history of the 26-year-old stake. It was the second straight year that rain had forced postponement of the trotting horse derby. And not since 1927 has there been more than a one day delay. That year it rained all week at Syracuse and the stake finally was an hour. Slo-Mo-Shun IV also qualified with average speed of 93.023 miles an hour with Stanley Dollar at the helm. Both craft are owned by Stanley Sayres of Seattle. Only Two Boats Qualify in Gold Cup Race Classic SEATTLE (AP)—Some of the world's fastest speedboats were set up today to qualify for the 45th running of the Gold Cup races—if they can beat a run of bad luck that has jinxed the visiting craft. Only two boats officially qualified over the nine mile course. They are Stanley Sayres' record cracking speed queens—Slo-Mo-Shun IV and Slo-Mo-Shun V. Still hoping to qualify in the two days remaining are three from Detroit, and the Hurricane IV of Los Angeles. The Hurricane IV limped from the course yesterday after winding up an average speed of 101.695 miles an hour around one 3-mile lap. Driver Morlan Visel said it had burned out a bearing and he would have to replace the drive shaft. He hoped, however, to have it back in shape today after an all night repair job.

Johnson, 23, a Philadelphia pro and No. 3 light heavy contender, sat after last night's televised scrap at Chicago stadium that he would welcome another chance at the unpredictable Satterfield. "I hadn't fought since I licked Clarence Henry last March," said Johnson, a heavy-muscled Negro who has 18 knockouts to his credit. I would like to get another crack at Satterfield."

Even if he is "43 going on 49," as some folks say, Satchel Paige still has the stuff to bewilder big league hitters. Let there be no doubt about it. If Paige had spent his career in the majors, instead of knocking around the exhibition circuit in the Negro leagues, he would have been a sure thing for the King Football rears his head in southern California tonight as North meets South in the first annual Shrine high football game and pageant at the coliseum in Los Angeles at 7:30 p.m. Anaheim's Gene Geselle, all-CIF center from Anaheim high's Sunset league champs of last year, will represent this city, playing on the southerner's offensive squad. Geselle, a relative lightweight at an even 200 pounds, will play in a forward wall that averages well over his weight. Local fans mourn the fact, however, that the assignment will give him little opportunity to exercise the defensive talents that rated him. Falling Stars Bow to LA 1 to Nothing By The Associated Press The inevitable has happened. The sinking Hollywood Stars, with no team around to help them beat back a competitor, have skidded unceremoniously into a tie for second place in the Pacific Coast League. Los Angeles' resurging Angels edged the Stars again last night, 1 to 0, for their eighth victory in 10 starts. It was Hollywood's ninth loss in 10 games. The Stars are up against a really hot team, have lost three straight, and have five more to play in Wrigley Field, a long ball hitter's paradise. The Angels have the long ball hitters. They won again last night on a home run, this one by Max West. It was his 21st of the year. The game drew 9444. Padres Tie San Diego's steady-going Padres forged into a tie for the second spot by shutting out San Francisco 4 to 0, as Memo Luna limited the Seals to six scattered blows. The young lefty fanned four and walked one. Jack Graham batted in three runs. It was the Padres' 18th win in 23 games against the Seals. Al Widmar fashioned a six-hit shutout as Seattle made it two straight over Sacramento, 9 to 0. The Rainiers nicked four Seas By The Associated Press Old Satchmo still has it. Even if he is "43 going on 49," as some folks say, Satchel Paige still has the stuff to bewilder big league hitters. Let there be no doubt about it. If Paige had spent his career in the majors, instead of knocking around the exhibition circuit in the Negro leagues, he would have been a sure thing for the Cooperstown Hall of Fame. Paige an old Jersey Joe Walcott belonged in the same class—two remarkably preserved old specimens who can still show the kids how it is done. Goes as Starter Satchmo chose to desert the St. Louis bullpen last night for a starting role—the second time he'd tried it this year. In fact he hadn't pitched an entire nine innings since 1949 on his last pitch in the majors with Cleveland. Even youngsters wilt in the late innings but not Paige. Locked in 0-0 duel with Detroit's Virgil Trucks, he pitched nine shutout innings. After Trucks gave way to a pinch-hitter in the 10th and final White took over, Paige still was in there throwing goose eggs at the Tigers, in the 10th, 11th and 12th. 12th Frame Win Bob Nieman's bases-loaded single with two out in the 12th finny got him home with a 1-0 run, his eighth of the year. The exscore showed only seven hits in the Tigers—six of them singles. Satchel walked only two anduck out nine in his brilliant start. Walt Masterson pitched the nators to a 6-4 victory over the New York Yankees, striking out. Washed Out Rain washed out the Boston at Philadelphia night game in the American.

Geselle, a relative lightweight at an even 200 pounds, will play in a forward wall that averages well over his weight. Local fans mourn the fact, however, that the assignment will give him little opportunity to exercise the defensive talents that rated him the top line-backer in the league. More than 40,000 fans are expected to be on hand for this inaugural game tonight, which will also highlight a pre-game parade of stage, screen, radio and TV stars. Thirty bands will participate. The South, coached by Mike Marienthal of Jefferson and Harold Hopkins of Pomona, onetime Anahiem coach, are rated as slight favorites in the tussle. Working off the T and short punt, the southernners will use the talents of quarterback Sandy Lederman of Santa Monica, Mike Casey of Brawley, Gordon Chappel of Jefferson and Dick Fulks of Monrovia. Linemen include Hardiman Coureton of Monrovia, A. D. Williams of Santa Monica, and Ronnie Loud of Jefferson. Both North and South teams, composed entirely of graduating seniors, will utilize the two-platoon system. Grass Courts Title Matches to Resume Today After Rains SOUTH ORANGE, N. J. OP—Held up one day by rain, the eastern grass courts tennis championships were scheduled to resume today at the Orange Lawn Tennis club with the entire third round of men's singles and women's singles to be decided. The top match of the day will pit Dick Savitt, who is playing practically in his own back yard against 17-year-old Ken Rosewall of Australia. Frank Sedgman, Australian ace and favorite to win the title, goes against Hal Burrows.
