Wolverines Defeat Rams, l9-8

After taking a drubbing at the hands of the West Medford Rams at the Columbus Ball Park on Wednesday afternoon by score of 10-4 the Wolverines came back Sunday afternoon to administer a sound trouncing to their erstwhile opponents by a score of 19-S.
 In the Sunday encounter, the Rams broke the ice in the open ing chapter by punching four hits to account for three runs. How ever, in the second inning, the To- cal favorites succeeded in push ing two runs across, to get back into the ball game. Nevertheless, the Rams remained out in front 3-2 until the last half of the fifth, when slugging Gene Wood, Vol verine first sacker, drove a two one pitch far over the centerfeld wall, with one aboard, to send the Wolves ahead by one run. From that point on, the home club in creased it's advantage as they punched the little white pellet all over the ball park. Three Ram pitchers saw service and gave up a total of seventeen hits, includ- ing home runs by Gene Wood and Roger Morris, and triples by Ed die Burns and Joe Bracey. The Rams accounted for but six hits in nine innings.
 Sunday afternoon, July 21, at 8 o'clock, the Wolverines will stack up against the strong Boston Ty- pos at the Columbus Avenue Ball Park Another big crowd is ex- pected to be present and cheer the local favorites on to victory.

Interracial Nine Formed

New York (Calvin's News Ser vice) - The Cleveland Indians hurling ace, Bob Teller, has an- nounced his plans for a post-sea- son exhibition tour with an All Star gathering from both major leagues who would in turn face the nations finest Negro teams.
 The Negro players so far pro- posed would be venerable Leroy (Satchell) Paige, Jackie Robinson, first baseman with Montreal of the International League, and Josh Gibson. To oppose these greats, Teller is picking as mound corps, Hal Newhouser of the Detroit Ti- gers, Spud Chandler of the Yank- ees and Jack Kramer of the St. Louis Browns.
 Infelders slated are Ken Keltner of Cleveland; first baseman, Mickey Vernon of Washington; Shortstop, Phil Rizzuto of the Yankees; Ishortstops, Jerry Prid- dy and Eddie Lake. Outfelders would be Charlie Keller of the Yankees, Jeff Heath of the Browns and Sam Chapman of the Athlet- ics. Walker Cooper of the Giants and Rollie Mensley are slated as possible catchers.
 The unit will open up at Cleve- land early in October, it has so far been decided. From there on, they would hit 16 cities which would include Chicago, Indianap- olis, St. Louis, Baltimore and Oakland, Buffalo, Los Angeles, Omaha, Louisville, San Diego, Kansas City, Pittsburgh and New York.

THE WORLD OF SPORTS
By John M. Lee

and there is a guy playing for a major league outfit right now who is supposed to be close to sixty My informant wouldn't give me his name lest it caused him to be retired, so you can take it for what it is worth, but I do know that ball-player who takes care of his health can stay in the game when he is no longer considered young.
 His Career Should Be Long
 That 3eing the case, there is no reason why an unborn generation should not be able to hear about the great mans exploits from their parents, and then dash out to the stadium and see him in ac- ton. Paige will be around throw ing them over for a long time to come, and he might easily become to baseball what King Gustav of Sweden is to tennis. King Gus, you know, left sixty behind. ages ago, but he is still one of the best tennis players on his side of the pond, and don't say his opponents are all letting him win for fear of losing their heads, because King Gus is one really democratic in dividual.
 There have been some compara- tive oldsters who played mayhem nod orreloJ Toopae op +bo foo4bo II field, but the old age in that sport is usually considered to be in the early thirties. Primarily football is a college sport and most of the players are happy adolescents who flash almost perfect speed and form. The professional game gets the footballers' after they have completed their Joe College activi- ties. As consequence they have brilliant names as the result of their previous exploits, but little else. The professional game is slower, albeit a bit rougher, and the boys begin to appear old after a season or two.
 At forty, Satchel Paige is still a remarkable pitcher. Always a snowman, he has gained in bril- liance with the passing years. It is my guess that anyone who is. waiting around for him to admit that he is too old to carry on would make better time trying to figure out how old Joe Louis will be before he will get an opponent who will really fight.

stage of the game. Something hap pened soon after. Clarke and Le- roy Johnson grasped every pos sible chance during their deliver les. The batsman who were not clean-bowled were caught or run out. It was amusing to watch the West India struggling to win the game but with the run out of Layne for II; Cox caught for IS and Lester Benn bowled for 22 (not l. b. w.), the other wickets came tumbling down even faster than the walls of Jericho from the "atom bowling" of Clarke and Johnson. Braaithwaite, son of um- pire Joe Braithwaite, made two brilliant catches.
 The score Universal 88, West India 59.
 Newton and Windsor
 Saturday at Franklin Field the match between Newton and Wind sor resulted in a win for Windsor with Aubrey Evans top score of 34.
 Skipper Grant and Vice Skipper Archer agreed to declare at 109 for 2 wickets with the hope of sending the visiting team to bat. The decision did not meet full ap- proval and a spirit of fear pre- vailed through the batting period | 4 for 43. With Murray, Carabine, Rev. Tyng and Black all out, a ray of hope overshadowed the out look of the game.
 The changing of Isaacs to "Crouch" Thompson was in the nick of time. Parkes capturing of was a savior to Grant and Archer from criticism. Newton scored 55.

Alamo Stadium, Texas, July 16 Jesse Owens at last has a sue cessor who can we'll afford to wear his crown.
 Of course, young Harrison Dill lard, the lanky Ohioan from Bald win Wallace College at Berea, isn't moving exactly into the pre- else shoes that Jesse left vacant, but in his own events he is as outstandingly tops as The Worlds Fleetest Human" was in his own.
 At the National AAU meets here at San Antonio last week billiard came out like the proverbial gang busters in the 110-meter high hurdles, taking the event in 14.2 seconGs, a severa1-yard win, and came back in the 220 low hurdles for 9 brilliant double performance that for an hour had the specta- tors sitting there with gaping oral cavities.
 billiard, however, had to suffer his light to be dimmed a little by the performances of several other dusky (and husky) lads who also had ideas of taking cups home. Lloyd LaBeach of Wisconsin took the 200 meter event with a brand new record, 21.4 seconds, whole tenth faster than the former rec ord; Dave Bolden of Southern, took another second off an old record in the 40 meter, doing it in 48.3 seconds.
 Other colored stars who came in with wins were Bill Mathis, who made the 100 meter run in 10.7 seconds; Elmore Harris of Long Beach, N. J., with 46.3 seconds the 400 meter dash Ga brand new record, also); Dave Albritton of Cleveland, who high-jumped 6 fit. 6 and seven-eighths inches; Willie Steele of San Diego, 24 feet in the broad jump; Barney Ewell of Pennsylvania, PIP seconds in the 200 meter dash; and brand new filed was entered with a bang

 Marty Taber
By Al Potter

Providence, R. I.-The eight
 round semi-final: bout in which Jean Richard of Montreal defeated Martin Taber of East Providence last Wednesday at the Arcadia Arena, stole the spotlight from the main event in which Jackie Har- ris scored a ninth round T. K. O. over a new sensation from Cuba named Jorge Sanchez.
 Taber, well known to local sport fans, and weighing 123h, was matched and favored against q tough, hard-hitting, clever lad from Montreal named Jean Rich- ard; an aggressive fighter who a fast-s'huffiing style, and who weighed in at 120. Richard won the unanimous decision of the judges, by his stamina and the fact that he landed the more dam aging blows in bout so filed with action that the end of each stanza was greeted with loud ap- plause. Taber, according to the judges, was far out in front after he f1oored the Canadian for no count in the second round, but outboxed him from then 70 the finish.

WEST INDIA DOWN CELLAR
Il e(l e(l<

The second half of the Massa- chusetts State Cricket League for the season began at two creases Saturday with Universal and West India at Brighton Oval and New ton and Windsor at Franklin Field.
 The match between Universal and West India was one of it's worst defeats in many years for West India. The lovers of cricket who attended the game appreciat- ed the behavior of the players and the umpires. The writer of this column was not surprised at the performance of Universal.
 Universal won the toss and se- lected to bat. c. Newton, c. White, L. John and E. Clarke; these four men together with Fitz Haynes and Ossie Newton wore the bowling of Benn, Norman, Roach, Layne and Keizer to mean frazzle. The once famous Norman "googly" balls is thing of the past; E. Clarke, the sterling batsman for Universal, with 15 not out to his credit proved it, also young Newton with the score of 20.
 West India on the other hand was somewhat "cocky" with 30 runs and no wickets at the early

Veteran Burlill
 White Honored

CARTER FIELD, BOSTON, July 15-As a token of apprecia- tion for more than 30 years in baseball, dozen of them spent in the Boston City League, catch CT Burlin White was awarded the entire proceeds of an exhibition game between the Boston Giants and Brighton last week.
 To show that he was fully in spirit with the idea, Burlin turned in two clean singles hits to help his team gain their 4-3 win over the Brightonians.
 Burlin White mas Tor many years been recognized as the Dean of colored baseballers. He began his career during the First World War and has not missed playing single season since. Instead of willing down in a dignifed way in his older years, he persists in playing as good a game today as he did fifteen or twenty years ago. When the Boston Giants played on July Fourth in the Yankee Sta dium, in fact, White was one of the stars in the game. Hitting a good safe 1902 with the Giants, he is not at all opposed to missing hard double, triple or home run now and then, and in addition has an enviable record of snappy double plays that sometimes leave the spectators gasping for air.
 Nearly 5000 people watched the testimonial cane

Schoolboy Chances
By Link Queeley

(Pinch-hitting for Mike Haynes)
 Now that the summer season is here most. of our schoolboys are either vacationing or working. We sincerely hope that the boys who can't find employment will engage in some interesting environment. Let this environment be to improve ones mind and character. Please don't let the older fellows will power of doing wrong influence you.
 The Panther Cubs we'll deserve congratulations on their baseball team. They finished second to the Bruins in the Twilight Park League Al. This lone defeat was suffered at the hands of the Bru- ins by a score of 5-2. This is a good record for the team's first year in the league. They have such young outstanding high school players as Teddy Brown, Tom Queeley of Trade, Teddy Bar co or EngnSh, and Edd1e Tyler ot Brighton.
 We are again reminding the schoolboys of the Shaw House Baseball School. This opportunity is open to all who are interested Take advantage, boys!
 The season is a little bit early for football; but one can't help but over hearing the anxiety of many of the boys waiting for the season to get underway. The com petition should be keen with all the returning boys of the prewar days back.
 Next week we hope to feature one of Boston's great athletes. This athlete is Bill Younger, formerly of Boston Tech.
