NEW JERSEY TRACK WILL OPEN TODAY

Camden, N. J., July 18.-CUP) - Thoroughbreds thunder down the stretch of a New Jersey track for the first time in 45 years, today when the new $2.00O,0O0 Garden State Park triumphs cyc1. plague of troubles and opens its, 49-day meeting.
 Not since the days when Salva- tor, Hindoo, Tenny and their speedy mates galloped to fame on Jersey turf has there been legalized horse racing in the state-not since the sport of kings" was outlawed in 1897.
 But the horses run today, despite wartime priorities and the contin- ued opposition of church organiza- tions, in an eight-race program fea- tured by the $5,000 added Camden Handicap. More than 25,000 fans were expected to attend, despite the acute transportation shortage.

ERRORS MAR BLACK
 TANKS 7 TO 3 WIN
Pitching Pleases Fans, as Each Club Gets But 6
 Hits at Stadium

Six hit pitching by both opposing moundsmen, was the most interest ing feature of the first night base ball game in Waterbury since last season, played last night at Muni- cipal Stadium before a crowd of about 1,5O0 fans who saw the famed New York Black Yankees come through with 2 to decision over the Waterbury Davi Brasscos, be- cause most of the latter group of players were not familiar with play ing the game under lights. No less than seven errors were charged tc the Brasscos, most damage being done in the seventh inning wher four B. Y. runs were scored, chiefly through misplays; and in the first inning the colored boys got rur with two errors and a single in- cluded. Yankees made four errors as the lighting system was hamper ed by heavy fog.
 Brassco scoring was limited to one big inning, the eighth, when three runs counted as Pichette was hit by pitched ball as Billy Moore hit to center field, after which a wild pitch, single and double with an in- field out allowed a three run total. Uchich, a Hartford pitcher stood out for the Brasscos, with Boone on the mound for the Yankees, a south paw slinger with plenty of stuff Rossomondo, of Kingston, N. Y. and New Haven's Jackie Tyler were out standing players. Summary:

The Brooks have l1aL things pretty much their own way this year and have posted seven straight triumphs without a defeat. Tomorrow however they will meet a team that has been setting the league on fire in their own part'c- ular way and it would be no sur prise at all if the Looks emerge on top. Bob Malone, injured ir factory accident over a month ago. has been working out for the past week and feels that his arm is about ready for a test. Malone who caught his left arm in an as- sembly line Eelt, finds difficulty ir catching ball as it jars his arm In the event that he does not work, Jackie Brickel will take over with Felix Longo behind the bat. Lefty Mike DeLucia will get the mound nod from Eddie DiNapoli with Joey Jay being held in reserve.
 The feature game on the secord field should also be well attended tilt. The Sacred Hearts have a host of New Departure players from Bristol in the lineup to throw at the Thomas club. Harp Sullivan will get the mound assignment from the Tommies with Lefty Colopinto working for the Hearts.
 The pair of curtain raisers on tEe schedule for the dsy should also draw much attention.

United Press Staff C0rrespOndent)
 New York, July 18-(UP)-As Mike Jacobs prepares to resume boxing operations at Madison Square Garden next week after lapse of nearly two months, this observer is puzzled at Mikes brand new con- fidence that Corp. Joe Louis will be permitted by the army to defend his title in September.
 Uncle Mikes tongue apparently slipped on his custom built ivories last night when he said, "and the winner will be matched with Louis. " He was talking about the ultimate victor in two heavyweight scraps slated for this month and next.
 Jacobs realized he had made a slip, just as soon as he noted the reporters double take" of surprise. So he hastily amended: T mean the winner will be matched with Louis if the army lets Joe fight" Another indication that some things cooking is Jacobs about-face in the matter of heavyweight challenger. Only last week the squire of Rumson still insisted that Private Billy Conn or Bob Pastor would be the challenger when and If Louis defended his title. But last night he said neither Conn nor Pastor are being considered.
 Instead. he emphasized. the chal- lenger will emerge from two heavy weight bouts. The first bout is scheduled for the Garden Thursday night-a Hereunder between Young Tami Mauriello of New York and veteran Red Burman of Baltimore. The winner of that engagement will tackle blond Lee Savold of Des Moines, Ia.. at the Garden, probably Aug. 21. The August winner will be No. challenger. as far as Jacobs is concerned.
 When asked to explain this sud- den shift in challengers, Jacobs re- piled evasively, That's all can say now"
 Tami Looks Good
 If Jacobs IS serious about the challenger situation, and he seemed to be, his statement means that 22-year-old Mauriello-"b baby" of the heavyweight division-may be fighting for the title in September
 Mauriello, a rangy, hard-hitting Bronx Italian, is favored at 3-1 to whip Red Burman Thursday night because of his unexpectedly impress sive showingS on May 9 when he held Bob Pastor to a draw and last Tuesday night when he hammered out 8 decisive 1O-round decision over Tony Musto of St. Louis. Pas tor, in two bouts, lasted a total of 21 rounds with Louis, and MuSto lasted nine with Bomber Joe. Mauriello, who only a year ago was fighting mtddleweights. has come fast as heavy. Against eight of the big fellows, he has reg istered six knockouts, the Musto de- cision and the Pastor draw. His kayo victims were Buddy Knox, Gunnar Barlund. Teddy Wint, Henry Cooper, Eldridge Eatman, and Jim Turner.
 If he beats Burman impressive ly, Mauriello may be favored over Savold next month, although Sa- vold-a smart. seasoned sharp puncher has been campaigning with great success during the past year.
 Meanwhile Corporal Louis con- tinues his basic training in the cavalry at Fort Riley, Kansas-do- ing his roadwork in the maddle.

The Case of Mir. Spencer and That Organ; Music Teacher Calls Dodgers Unsantary; He Could
 at Least Keep Flatbush Fun Clean

New York, July 18 - Keeping in close contact with J. Reid Spencer v. Brooklyn Baseball Co, that stir ring bit of legal fol-de-rol which involves 70-year-old MT. Spencer's claim that the organ at Ebbets Field is detriment to his sleep and general well-being:
 You will remember that MT. Spencer. who lives hard on the Flatbush ball park, hied the Dodgers into court three times to put a stop to the calliope that crescendoes in stead of diminuendoes.
 On one occasion he was guar anteed that the organ would here after play pianissimo. But still too loud, according to the former music teacher, who should know.
 His most epic quotation Che is 8 very quotable fellow, this little man who has suddenly made himself a Brooklyn bone of contention) in the more recent legal proceedings was:
 T am a Dodger rooter, your honor. I love ball games and \ love music, but this stuff from the organ --phooey, phooey.S
 Upshot of this whole mess Is that Mr. Spencer now charge the Dodg- CTS with being unsanitary.
 His complaint is based on sec ton of the Sanitary Code "for hav- ing contributed to an act that is detrimental to the health" of MT. Spencer, and interfering with his repose."
 MT. Spencer could at least keep his fun clean.
 Ballyhocer MacPhail would un- doubtedly speak to him about that were is not for the fact thet the Supreme Court is in recess until October.
 ! By that time Loud Speaker Mac Phail will be busy with another world series and the Dodgers won't require the publicity value of com plainant Spencer.
 The odd case of the old gentle man who likes good music well H. llistrates how far L. s. MacPhail will go to keep the name of his club in the headlines.
 "H2ell the name right" Is Larry I1acfhail's slogan. T don't care what you say about me as long as you say it."
 A compliment the catcher could dO without: When the backstop of siie Folsom, Calf, Prison team was due for release, the convicts' news paper addressed this appeal to sher- 1ffs: Please be on the lookout for . husky young man in good physi- cal condition who has had some ex- perience as a catcher for a baseball team. He should have strong arm and a keen batting eye. Sheriffs are xequested to send him to Folsom @Figcn."

FRENCH IS BEST
 MAJOR PITCHER
Brooklyn Star Has Won 10, Not Yet Beaten;
 Other Leaders

New York, July 18-(UP)-Larry French, the only active left-handeI of the Brooklyn Dodgers, maintained his major league pitching lead for the third straight week and, with 10 triumphs and no defeats, he seems l'destined to become 20-game win ner for the National League cham pions, official tabulations disclosed today.
 French, who has never lost game for Brooklyn since he joined the club in August, 1941, is followed by Rookie Hank Borowy of the New York Yankees. Borowy, who has been French's chief opponent among the moundsmen of both circuits, has a record of eight wins against one defeat.
 Young Pete Reiser of the Dodgers National League batting champion last year, had his Major League hit- ting lead extended to IS points. His mark of 1882 includes games played through Thursday.
 Joe Gordon of the New York Yankees and Ernie Lombardi of the Boston Braves tied for second place, each registering 344, while Ted Will Hams of the Boston Red Sox wound up in fourth place with .339.

.LAABS HITTING
 BRINGS BROWNS INTO 4TH PLACE
OutfeIder Has Hit l7 Home Runs to Date; '
 in Past 7 Days
BY PAUL SCHEFFELS JnIted Press Staff COrrespOndentl

NOUAbGW 41C89 0sSM kAV0ROAAAASAASy
 New York, July IS = (UP0 - With both the New York Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers safely berth ed and looking unbeatable behind comfortable league leads, the only genuinely interesting club in the majors today was the St. Louis Browns.
 The Brownies are usually regard ed as just club of Spoilers" - an outfit with nothing to lose and everything to gain - but they have jumped into fourth place in the American League on the crest of an eight-game winning streak.
 Their sudden rise can be traced to good pitching and remarkable out burst of hitting by Outfelder Chet Laabs. Manager Luke Sewell said only a few days ago that if he had lone hot hitter" he'd make the Browns roll-and fast.
 Laabs has been filling that bill with vengeance. He hit another pair of homers yesterday as the Browns clipped the As Az and III. Those four-baggers brought his sea- sons output to IT, two of the ma- jor league lead held by Ted Will Hams of the Red Sox. Laabs has now damned seven homers in as many days and driven in GA runs for the year. Last year he rapped 15 homers and drove in 59 runs.
 Steve Sundra gave up II hits but scattered them well enough in the first game to win his third victory. Stan Ferens, rookie southpaw, spaced eight blows for his second win in the nightcap. These full time jobs ran the Browns pitching record to six nine-inning jobs in their last seven games.
 Grand Slam
 Phil Rizzuto's four-run four bag ger paced the Yankees to clean sweep of their series with Cleveland and brought Spud Chandler his 10th triumph as the Champions downed the Tribe, 8-1. Al Smith, who pitch ed the first four frames was the victim of Rizzuto's rap and also Red Rolfe's homer and triple, both hit with man aboard. Joe DiMaggio got one hit, running his safe hitting streak to IA games.
 Williams single in the 18th scored Johnny Pesky with the run that gave the Red Sox 8 2-1 triumph over the Chicago White Sox. Pesky opened the inning with bunt and reached second on Dom DiMaggio's $ poorly handled bunt. Williams then looped a single of the left field wall. Charley Wagner allowed the White Sox nine hits. Dom DiMaggio's safe hitting streak ended at g games when he went hitless in five trips.
 The Senators swept their series with the Tigers, scoring a 80 tri- umph in the first twilight game ever played at Washington. A crowd of 11,000 saw Buck Newsom and Hal Newhouser each allow four hits. Washington made three hits in the eighth and combined with errors by Birdie Tebbetts and Rudy York, they produced all the scoring.
 PasSeau Picked"
 The Brooklyn Dodgers trounced the Cubs, 10-5, knocking Claude Passeau from the box for the second time in this series, with f1ve-run foray in the fifth. They added three runs in the seventh and collected IS hits in all off three pitchers. School boy Rowe and Ed Head pitched for the Dodgers.

Mauriello, Bur1nan, Constantine And
 Hernandez at MISC.
Especial to the Democrat)

New York, July 1.-Two interest ing and important matches, one in the heavyweight division and the other in the featherweight class, mark the resumption of fistic activ- ities at Madison Square Garden this Thursday night.
 The heavyweight contest involves Tami Mauriello, Fordham youngster who is unbeaten in eight heavy weight fights, and Clarence (Red) Burman, veteran Baltimore cam- paigner. The featherweight bout brings together Charlie Gulu) Cos tantino, East Side, and Pedro Her. nandez, Brooklyn, in match which will bring the winner a title oppor- tunity against Albert (Chalky) Wright in September. The heavy weight bout is listed for ten rounds, the featherweight bout for twelve.
 Mauriello is making his first Gar den appearance since his spine tingling performance against Bob Pastor last May 9 which ened in a draw decision. A cut over the w. ouAACACN HI tLlS EASLOT II1ACCIl, kept him out of action for several weeks but he got going again re- gently and last Tuesday hammered out a decisive triumph over Tony MuSto.
 UpSetter?
 Burman also boasts win over Musto, gained two years ago when Musto was rated a far more for midable heavyweiht nahtheshrdlu midable heavyweight than he is to- day. The Baltimore redhead, with recent triumphs to his credit over Sonny Boy Walker, Johnny Shkor, and Frank Zamoris whom he kayoed is displaying the best form of his career and is given an excellent chance by boxing men to upset Mauriello.
 The meeting between Costantino and Hernandez is a return affair. A few weeks ago Hernandez, given only a one to five chance, fooled the gambling gentry by taking the measure of the spectacular Lulu. Matchmaker Nat Rogers has Herb MaFshall. Brooklyn middlewight,
