7-3 Victory In Second

CINCINNATI, Aug. 11.@R-The
surging St. Louis Cardinals defeat
ed Cincinnati 1874 and 7-3 in a dou-
BILE header Sunday to move within
a half-game Of the league-leading
Brooklyn Dodgers.
The Reds tied a major league
record, held by a number of other
clubs, when they lined out three
consecutive home runs in the
eighth inrins OF the opener, but
they were buried under a 22-hit
Cardinal attack.
A near-c1racity crowd of 80, 2ao
paying fans saw Johnny Beazley
hold Cincinnati in check with six
hits in the second game while his
mates were clubbing three Redleg
pitchers Tor IL safeties, including
two home runs.
Stan Musial led the St. Louis
sluggers to- the day with eight
hits in 10 trips to the plate, but
Enos Slaughter had a field day
in the opener. driving in seven
runs including a three-run homer.

back to Legion Stadium"
And they have good reason to
like the local park. Records show
that the BUGS have Won their last
six games here, and the last time
they were beaten before a home
crowd was on July %, when they
divided a twin bill with Angler
Fuquay. One the other hand, Will
mington has dropped seven out
of their 10 contests away from
town.
The fatal eighth saw Messing
hit a slow roller to Gregory. wnich
he beat out for a hit. Gregory
tried to nab the Sanford shortstop
at the last minute, though, and
threw wild past Poklemba, Ness
ing taking second. Gales laid down
a sacrifice, and Gregory errored
again, permitting all men to be
safe. But Messing attempted to
score from second, and Gregory's
peg home was dropped by Station.
Crawford sacrificed Gales to third,
Bortz grounded out short to first,
but Schoffner lifted a fly to right
field, which Hargrove Davis drop
ped, allowing Gales to tally the
final run for Sanford.
Johnny Edens figured in both
Wilmington runs, scoring n and
batting in me-.

catching in the Class A loop. This
past Saturday, Benson was back
stopping A. l.. King in a practice
game with the Firemen at Robert
Strange. During the contest, a Fire
Department batter grounded to
second base. King, who is a reg
ular Spofford Mills player, romp-
ed toward home from third base,
attempting to score. The White
Keystoner rifled the ball to Benson
at the plate, and King collided with
the catcher, his knee hitting Hunker
in the chest. Benson,was knocked
unconscious for a few minutes, but
came out of it. BY the way, the
contest was rained out in the fourth
inning with Whites leading by
several runs.
Looking back at the Pirates
opening game of the Tobacco State
league season, you can quickly
realize why Wilmington's start in
the loop is what put them deep
in the cellar long before 'Shuney"
Britain and some other present
Pirate player thought about sign
ing with Wilmington. The BUGS
opened their season against Dunn
Erwin, and lost a lousy IA to S
game. Let's have a look at the
locals starting lineup: 2b-Zazzaro;
rf-Fox; 3b-Allen; 1b Lauffer; c.
Katkaveck; ss-Strickland; cf-Lan-
caster; f~-Skinner; p-Lamb. Notice
any difference in this club from
the Wilmington p~owerhouse which
beat Smithfield a double header,
Friday?
President L. M. Pollock said the
other night, 81 expect Andy Pokl-
emba to be ready for action again
any day now. He has been out, be-
cause of as injured spot on his
chest, where a ball hit him at
Clinton"
If Andy is to return to the Buo
lineup, at what position will Brit
tain put him? Roy Lamb is playing
first. and battling .281 to Pok's .261.
''Shuney" may let Andy handle the
bag for a few games to see what
he can do. If lanky Poklemba
shows up we'll, Lamb will probably
operate in left field, as Britain is
