The man behind the mask, Mar

Sonny Meyers, the St. Joseph, Mo-,
killer, in the opening bout.
The Marvel has proven that he
is as rough as they come in
matches gone by, but he'll really
have to give out to beat the speedy
Meyers. This match is scheduled
for two out of three falls, an hour
time limit.
The main event was well named
when announced as THE Battle

Getchell also called a disputed
decision in 1886 which figured in
the breaking of Minnesota string

charged Gopher Captain Ed Wild

goal. Northwestern scored and

Then it was discovered it actual

H0MERS, AS CUBS
BOW TO N. Y, IS
Weintraub Singles In
Tenth With Runner
Aboard To Win

NEW YORK, May 15-(R)-Phil
Weintraub's single to center in the
tenth inning today scored pinch
runner Leon Treadway with the
big run of a 6-5 New York Giant
victory over Chicago today, in a
game marked by four home runs.
Nap Reyes poked two into the
stands, his first in the second
frame off Bob Chapman for a
commanding early lead, and his
second in the last of the ninth off
Hy Vandenberg. Reyes also added
two singles. A three-run clout by
Catcher Dewey Williams had given
Chicago the lead for the first time
in the top of the ninth inning.
Rookie Bill Emmerich, making
his first appearance in a big
league park, appeared on his way
to a victorious debut going into the
ninth with a AZ edge, but after
he walked Peanuts Lowrey and let
Don Johnson single, Nell OFT lift
ed him for Bill Voiselle.
Voiselle finally caught up with
his sixth straight victory, tops in
the majors, but he had to sweat
to do it as Williams, the first man
to face him, banged one into the
upper right field stands for sd
edge.
Reyes second round tripper of
the day tied it up in the home
ninth. After Voiselle retired the
Subs in order in the tenth, OFT
started the winning rally with
single. Joe Medwick, starting his
first game of the year in left
field, sacrificed the Skipper to
second and Weintraub followed
with his decisive safety.
Ray Prim, who relieved Van
denberg in the ninth, was charged
with the defeat.
After Reyes first wallop in the
second, Chapman put down the
Giants until the seventh when a
combination of singles by Reyes
and Johnny Rucker and a sacri-
flee netted one more. Chipman's
double following Paul Gillespie's
single gave the Bruins their first
tally in the fifth and Stan Hack
contributed a solo homer in the
eighth.
