Most Bitter Defeat
lin Mats 10 Loss
BY Burton Hawkins
Stqr Staff correspendenf

ST. LOUIS. June 10-Ponderous
Bobo Newsom has a suspicion he
could fall into barrel of $1,000
bills and come up with flstful of
splinters. The big, believing right
handler is humming "Heartaches"
these days. for his love of the Mats
is bringing him only pain born of
Washington's allergy to base hits.
He's in rare form, but it isn't blend
ing happily with the Mats rare hit
ting.
Three times this season Bobo has
Unbiased commendable but fruitless
performances. He held Philadelphia
and Cleveland to one run in eight
innings, but on the first occasion
Tom Ferrick received credit for the
victory when the Mats mustered two
runs in the ninth. In the other
game the Mats rehevers allowed
four runs in the ninth.
Last nights struggle here, how
ever. was the most bitter of the
season for Newsom, for it involved
two successive bad breaks which cost
the feeble Mats another game and
dropped them precariously close to
the American League basement as
st. Louis won, 10.
Newsom, who permitted only four
hits in the seven innings he labored,
was having what amounted to no
trouble until Al Zarilla smashed
grounder into left field starting the
seventh. Zarilla's smash took
wierd pop over Tom McBrldes
shoulder and scooted to the fence
for a triple.
That was crushing blow, but the
climax was reserved for the next
play, when Walter Judnich lined
to Stan Spence in short center.
Spence fired a perfect peg to the
plate, nipping zarilla, but Catcher
AL Evans dropped the ball.
The Mats made bid to tie the
score in the eighth when Mark
Christman doubled off the left-f1eld
fence with one out. Cecil Treyis
batIed for, Newsom and singled
sharply to right, but Zarilla's fine
throw to the plate forced Christ
man to halt at third. In that crisis
Sherry Robertson popped up and
Jerry Priddy lifted a meek foul to
Jeff Heath.
Again in the ninth the Mats re-
ceived revived hope with one out
when Heath dropped Buddy Lewis
fly for two-base error. Lewis
moved to third as Spence grounded
out. but Mcbride hoisted an easy
fly to Paul Lehner in center for
the final out.

ton has postponed until after the

allowing payment to amateur ath-
letes while absent from their reg

Including Russia's agreement to
abide by the rules of amateurism.
In discussing the Russian appli-
cation, Lord Burghley, chairman of
the meeting, here yesterday said:
I'VE should approach the question
from a reasonable point of view
and forget the past when the Soviet
definition of an amateur differed
from ours
"They should be given the oppor-
tunity of entering the Olympic
games with clean slate" he added.
Burma, Lebanon, Iran, Jamaica
Korea were accepted as members
while the application of British
Guiana was held up until the two
associations in that country can
get together.

Atheletic Federations be allowed to
pay, throught an employer, the
wages of needy athletes, up to one

The vote on the broken time
issue was 20 to II. Joining the

were Brazil, Canada, Ceylon, Fire
France, Britain, Greece, Hungary
New Zealand, South Africa, Spain
Switzerland and Trinidad.
Nations opposing delay were
CZechoslovakia, Denmark, Finland

tions were nearly completed for the
