preseason oopesterS who predicted
this would be a year of triumph
for the carpet slipper and rocking
chair crew-the ancients among big
league pitchers-laughed up their
athletic sleeves Wednesday for it
appeared that, for once, they had

The veterans made the batters
look silly TUESDAY as the three

eXperience-Bucky Walters, Cincin-

phia Athletics, %, and Al Hollings-
worth, ST. Louis Browns, %.
Walters, always a reliable mounds
man, topped the major league hurl-
ing corps with II victories against
three losses and gained his latest
triumph against the Pittsburgh
Pirates Tuesday night with a two
hit, 80 triumph. The converted
third baseman, who is regarded
as the finest night pitcher in base
ball, famed seven men and of the
hits he allowed, both were of strict
ly scratch variety.
Elsewhere in the National league
the leading st. Louis Cardinals de-
feated the Chicago Cubs for the
ninth consecutive time this season
as Rookie AL Jurisich served up
five hit ball to record the triumph.
Bill Nicholson clouted his 18th
homer of the season for the Cubs
