Chicago Half
Game Behind
BY LEO MACDONELL

CHICAGO, June 8 H.arol d
Newhouser's old vice of wildneSs,
believed licked, returned 10 plague
the young left-hander last night
and the Tigers succumbed to the
White Sox, 3 to 1, in the first of
a series of five games booked
here.
The triumph extended the White
Sox winning streak TO seven and
put them within a half game of
the third place Tigers. II also
gave the habitantS of Comiskey
Park four wins in five games be-
tween the two clubs this season.
A crowd of 17.lS0 clients saw
the nocturnal battle.
NewhouSer walked nine bats
men. forcing home two Of the
White Sox runs with passes. in
six innings in which he served on
the mound. Frank tStubby) Over
mire finished when Newhouser
was lifted for a pinch hitter.
GROVE Is STAR
On the other hand, Orval Grove,
the young White Sox star right
handler who has been pitching in
and-out baseball this year. turned
in mastery five hit performance,
He held Steve O'Neilrs proteges
well in check after a wabbly
start. He gave the Detroiters their
lone run in the first inning, in
which two walks figured.
With one away in the first. Doc
Cramer walked After Mayo
grounded out, Rudy York also
walked. Then Pinky Higgins came
through with a single TO left that
scored Cramer.
From then on Grove had the
Tigers eating out of his hand. Ex-
cept for the ninth. when Jimmy
Outlaw and Chuck Hostetler hit
consecutive singles, the Tigers did
not get man TO second base in
those remaining eight heats, so
well did the White Sox chucker
have them tanned.
The White Sox tied the score
with a run in the third inning.
With one out. Wally Moses walked
and was promptly thrown out AT
second by Bob Swift. But New
houser walked Leroy Schalk.

Cooley Track Power
Trimmed for Finals
BY JAKE BERSON

TomorQw Metropolitan League outdoor track finals at IT, Of
Stadium won't be the Cooley High that
expected Not after the ots the Cardinals received yesterdays
seminaS
The unexpected suffered by Cooley eight
Detroit evening times. (Detroit, Mich) 1921-1958, 1944-06-08

qualifying events might have
wrecked the title hopes of most
any other squad, but they are I'm
likely to keep the Cardinals from
taking the title again.
DASH MEN FAIL
In the hurdles, where Cooley
has been consistently strong,
Coach Claude Snarey will have
only Ted Balogh in the highs and
lows and Bill Marcoux in the lows.
Failing 10 qualify were Doug
Simpson and al Noble in the
highs and lows and Marcoux in
the highs. all of whom placed in
the indoor finals.
In the sprintS, another Cooley
strong point, the Cardinals missed
out entirely in the 220-yard dash
and qualified only Yves Reynolds
and Bruce Robinson for fifth and
sixth places in the 100. Its two
best dashmen, Jack Witherspoon
and HOWE Emmons, failed to
make the grade.
Another blow to Cooley was the
inability of its two best milers,
Hal SMITH and Bill Beeman. to
compete in the west side trials
Tuesday, thus keeping them from
the SemlfinalS.
Snarey's team, however. is ex-
pected TO pick up considerable
points in the 440, $50, pole vault
ard a few in the mile, relay and
high jump. But its winning total
won't be anywhere near the 1872
points it ran up in the west side
meet.
Miller High will give Cooley a
run for it in the early part of the
finals. The Troians placed heavily
in the dasheS, with Cleo Caldwell
hitting 101 seconds and 22.9 to
set the pace in the 100 and 300
respectively.
