 New York, June l0.-(UP) Calvin Coolidge McLish, lS-year-old Choc- taw Indian from Oklahoma City, Okla, born, as his name suggests, during the regime of the late Re- publican President, today loomed as a definite threat in two roles to Na- tional league hitters.
 McLish, member of the Brooklyn Dodgers mound staff and termed by Dodger president Branch Rickey as great prospect" seems to have been a real find, particularly for, Brook lyn. The young man is ambidex- trous and Brooklyn fans have seen stronger things than pitcher re- lieving himself when his arm gets tired.
 The borough, which has seen three of its own major leaguers on the same base at the same time in the past may, some day, see McLish re- Heinz McLish. If the right arm, which has seen all the service so far this year, gets tired, nothing in baseballs rules would prevent him from warming up the left arm and serving up a few from that side.
 Strange as it may seem, the pos sibility is more than remote for McLish himself says that he throws pretty good" with his left hand.
 Leo Durocher Dodger manager, who has held high regard for the young Indian since he joined the club late in spring training, pro- fessed himself as ''in love with the kid" after last nights game in which Brooklyn edged the Boston Braves, 3-2. McLish held the Braves to five hits in gaining his second straight starting triumph and his second straight ve-hitter. Nate Andrews started for the Braves and was re" lieved by Armand Cardoni in the eighth inning. Cardoni was charged with the loss after Dixie Walker dou- bled and Mickey Owen singled him across with the winning tally in the ninth.
 All Even
 Fritz Ostermueller of the Pitts burgh Pirates and Claude Passeau ot the Chicago Cubs labored long ana in vain last night as their duel ended in a 3-3 tie when the game was called at the end of the 10th inning because of rain. Chicago scored in the third inning and had the count tied in the bottom of the sixth. Bill Nicholson then put the Cub ahead with a two run homer in the eighth, only to see the Bucs tie 1t again in their half of that game. The tie resulted in change in the schedule which pits the same two teams against each other to- day instead of giving them a day Of rest.
 Early Wynn held his jinx over the Philadelphia Athletics as he pitched and batted the Washington Senators [ a 2-l triumph over the | "AS". 4.
 Wynn has beaten the Athletics nine times since entering the Ameri- can League in l94l and they never have beaten him. He made two hits in three times at bat and scored what proved to be the winning run in the fifth inning when he singled and came home on an error and another single. Russ Christopher was charged with the loss.
 The Cleveland Indians handed the league leading St. Louis Browns their second straight loss, AZ. The Browns, unable to hit in the clutches, left l3 runners stranded. Allie Reynolds and Joe Hevine worked for the tribe and allowed but six hits, although they walked 10 men. Reynolds was credited with the win when a three run up- rising in the seventh brought the tribe from behind. Nelson Potter was the loser.
