Gives Cards FL Victory
BY JACK HAND

BROOKLYN, May 7-(HD-Ierry
Moore's first homer of the season
with Enos Slaughter on base in
the seventh inning today gave St.
Louis a 81 victory over Brooklyn
and assured HOWE Pollet his in
itial win after three straight de-
feats.
Pollet, a q game winner for the
World Champs last year, was in
and out of trouble throughout the
showery afternoon, walking eight
Dodgers. The slender southpaw
needed the help of four double
plays, two of which he started. in
banking the home club until the
eighth.
Vic lombard deserved a better
fate. He yielded only three of the
Cardinals four hits.
A second inning single by Del
Rice was the only safe blow until
Enos Slaughter opened the sev-
enth with a one-base smash to
right. Moore fouled on two bunt
attempts before hitting the third
pitch into the left field stands, $50
feet away.
Brooklyn finally broke through
the Birds defense on the eighth
and might have had more than
one run if it hadn't been for Stan
MusiaTs great stop Oh a smash
by Pete Reiser that vas labelled
a double. The liner hit the first
base sack bouncing high in the
air but Musial caught it with his
back to the infield and tossed to
Pollet for the first out.

to right and went to third On a
