 New York, May 5 (UP) - Prof. James Joseph Dykes, the malevolent magician who is famed throughout the American League as a baseball alchemist and word abuser extraordinary, today analyz- ed the infant 1942 season and ob- ligingly boiled his observations into one or two asbestos lined sentences.
 "Why I'll be 6 O-O ($) $)8s0-012 A." said the professor in language strong enough to blackmail him from the Longshoreman's Union. Those 6S$00: :(P6'8s( and $-1-4 (Ss) SSO-O--ib are $&6s$004 '$8E8S$00 4&O. These etain White Sox of mine are shrdlu. And as for that umpire why cmfwyp."
 Translated for benefit of the pink lemonade and lady fingers set, the remarks of the Chicago maestro prove neither particularly pro- found nor indicative of deep thought. After watching his team lose l6 of % games, the professor with all the calinness you might except from a volcano suffering with indigestion-has concluded his boys can't hit.
 For several years now they've been calling the Sox the hitless wonders" he explained as the smoke curling from his uagnificently black cigar withered every blade of grass in a radius of IS yards. "This year we are just iiitless. From the way these Sox have been swinging you would think they have been hypnotized. They aren't even fol- lowing the law of averages.
 Hits Wanted

If just one of the guys would hit some thing but the steaks on the dinner table maybe the rest of them would get inspired.

State Duckpin Tourney Scores

No change was noted in the lead- CTS of mems singles, doubles or team events from what has been pre- viously reported. Hartford Blue Towers own the team lead in the state duckpin tourney now in pro- gress at the Sena Alleys, Hanley and Koch with sos are doubles leaders and Middletown's Steve Witkowski is all-eventS leader with 1,226. The Hartford team total of 1897 just short of the 2O00 mark is consider. ed exceptional and will probably stand for a few days more.
 Tom Civitate of Waterbury had best singles score of 424 among sev- eral local, Bristol and Bridgeport rollers who competed last night, in the fifteenth annual event. Civiate hit AIS in the doubles and 781 which was far shy of the 808 doubles score of the Hanley- -Kotch duo.

Waterbury Manufacturini Hold Key to Situation
 Chase's BrasscOs

Two bowling teams, tied for thin place in the Industrial league VI decide by their deeds, rather tha' their words, tonight, whether Amer. ican Brass will grab its first cham pionship in several years, or whethe the perennial and defending chamu from Chase Metal will be ''up there again, tie for the title and then q into a rolloff, with the Brassies \ decide the title.
 As matters stand, the situation this: tonight is the windup of thel regular league season at the Mats tuck alleys. American Brass Is on game up and must blow all thra games to Waterbury Manufactul ing, while Chase wins two of thre from the BrasscoS in order for 6 ti to take place.
 How It Stands
 The two teams who hold the aII swer to the $60 question are wa terbury Manufacturing, a 590 ave1 age team, and the BrasScos Q 51 average team, both tied like a siI or's knot for third placei n tli league with a 66-39 rating at thl writing. Tonight's results will ala decide third and fourth places, urI less both win three straight wtic' is extremely unlikely.
 Johnny O'Connor's club Shou hold its own and finish one gan up for the title, as the Chase ou it has no cinch in trying to taN three straight from Eddie DNgu and his BraSsco mates.
 Mickey sharon of the Cha Metal team is the leagues hi& average bowler with 126.57 whN Joe Lovallo passed Sammy ga with 124.36 with Sammy now i23 and Dente 123.38.
