Punch Medwick Finds
With Misplaced Bat
Is Boon 10 Cards
BY the Associossd Press

BOSTON, Aug. 25.-Back among
the select circle of 300 hitters today,
thanks to a misplaced bat. Joe
Ducky) Medwick promises to give
his st. Louis Cardinals the extra
bit of punch they need to over
take the front-running Brooklyn
Dodgers
In Philadelphia Saturday, the
veteran Medwick, who will be So
in October, broke into the starting
lineup in right field for the first
time In three weeks and dashed out
a three-run homer to pull the game
out of the fire for the Redbirds.
All season Ben Chapman. the
Phillies' manager. has been rubbing
me-" Medwick explained. When
he saw me step up to the plate, he
yelled 'double-play.' But I laughed
him OF by pointing to my bat and
yelling homer at him. Then I
hit a two-and-two pitch into the
second deck OF the left field stands
and I didn't hear another peep out
of Chapman"
Still swinging his strange club,
once the property of Harry Walker
now with the Phillies, Ducky was
sent in to bat for Ron Northey dur
ing the eighth inning OF yesterdays
game here with the Braves and he
slashed long two-bagger into deep
center to drive. In pair Of runs
while the Cards were banging out
9-5 win.
If that's the kind OF wood that
helps Walker lead the National
League with .352 batting average
it should do me plenty OF good"
Ducky predicted. -

CHICAGO. Aug. 25.-Coach Ray
Daughters of the 1948 United States
women's Olympic swimming team
had better build his squad around
free-style whirlwind Ann Curtis
and forget about the breast-stroke
competition completely.
You can't beat the Dutch in the
breast stroke.
That was proved by 21-year-old
Nelly Van Vliet of Hilversun, Hol-
land, who built up her swimming
muscles riding a Predetermined
bicycle during the Nazi occupation.
In last week ends women's national
AAU outdoor swimming meet.
Miss Van Vliet, daughter OF a
Dutch baker who has seven other
children, cooked two American rec
ords to a sizzling brown as she be-
came the first European to win the
American AAU crown in rs years.
Nelly didn't need her customary
interpreter when she spoke her
piece In the Washington Park pool
which she boiled with new Ameri-
can and AAU records in both the
200 and 10 meter breast-stroke
events.
Her 1885 in the 200 Saturday
slashed nearly seven seconds of the
American record and her 1:21.6 in
yesterdays 100 was almost three
seconds faster than the American
standard.
Pedaled Bike so Miles q Day.
AS she explains it, Miss Van Vliet
during the war years had to pedal
q bicycle about so miles a day hunt
ing potatoes to fill out slim family
fare.

would be so laden with potatoes,
fore and aft, she could hardly steer
it. That helped keep her arm and
leg muscles in good shape, even
though she was 20 pounds lighter
than her present 1872.
That makes as much sense as her
use of the old-fashioned under arm
breaststroke which swimming
coaches generally frown on as far
slower than the modern butterfly
stroke.
Both days, she also cracked the
American and AAU records in the
trials, actually accounting for 8 of
the II new records in the three-day
meet.
Miss Curtis, star OF the Crystal
Plunge team of San Francisco, put
on quite an individual show herself
as she established new American
and AAU mark in the 400 free style
and a new AAU record In the 100
meter.
AIMS triple slam, also including a
successful defense in the 800 free
style yesterday, paced the Crystal
Plunge team to its third straight
outdoor crown with total ofs4e
points. Second was Multnomah
Club of Portland, Ore, with 20.
Miss Curtis, who now has won
Is outdoor individual crowns and
won at least three events in every
meet since 1914, shared point hon.
ors with Nancy Merki of Portland
the 300 individual medley cham
pion, at IS points each.
Miss Merki. however, profited
when Miss Van Vliet and her Dutch
colleague, Mrs. Irene Roster Van
Feggelen, agreed not to have Their
points figured in the standings.

Assault Lame, No DUE
With Armed Likely
Before October 81
BY the Asseeiotsd Press

CHICAGO. Aug. 25.-The Assault
Armed showdown-which doomed as
the race of the year to determine
the horse of the year-today has
faded from reality back into a
dream.
The nationally acclaimed 500, 900
winner-take-all match race, sched-
uled for Saturday at Washington
Park, was Cancelled when Assault
pulled up lame after a mile and
an eighth workout early yesterday.
A soreness developed in the right
front foot of King Ranch's sensa-
tional colt-the same foot that was
uniformed when he stepped on a
stake as fonl. After that accident,
Assault became known as the Club
foot Comet"
Trainer Max Hirsch and Benja-
min r. Lindheimer, executive direc-
tor Of Washington Park, agreed that
the Dream Race" should be called
OIL In the interest OF the public
that it would not be fair for the two
to battle for supremacy If they were
not at their peak of condition.
Every time Assault is shod, 1t
is like performing a delicate oper-
alton" Hirsch explained. THE sore
ness may be caused by nail that
touches tender spot in his hoof
when I set him down for a hard
effort"
Hirsch said Assault may not be
in condition to run for more than
a month. He may be ready for the
$25, 900 Pimlico Special october 81.
At least this fall classic now appears
the next event bringing Assault and
the Calumet Farm gelding together

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Aug. 25.-Long,
loose jointed Dan Bankhead moved
into baseball bigtime today eager
for the chance to prove the tag
tackled on him by many of his con-
temporaries in the Negro majors
that he is the fastest pitcher in
baseball, black or white"
The 24-year-old Negro athlete

coming the first Negro pitcher to
crash the majors.
Martin. Memphis dentist who has
been, connected with Negro organ

Bankhead "one of the greatest
pitchers I have ever SEEN"
He is a faster man than Satchel

est Negro pitcher of all time" he
said. Martin added he had seen
Bob Teller cut loose and
he believed Bankhead to be faster.
Bankhead Is a rangy 6-foot-3,

Strength on Bench
Helps Dodgers and
Yankees in Races
By Joe ReichIer
Assa%iofsd pyexs Saerxs w,;ss,

Strength on the bench, a secret
weapon" that helped win many a
pennant for John j. McGraw, Is one
of the principal reasons the Brook
lyn Dodgers and New York Yankees
are leading their respective leagues
by comfortable margins today.
McGraw always used to say, Give
me several strong substitutes on the
bench and I'll give any team battle
for the pennant."
And he proved 1t by leading the
New York Giants to 10 champion
ships within space of II years.
It was the work of a pair OF
Dodger behind-the-line men, Eddie
Miksis and Stan Rojek. that enabled
the Brooks to defeat the Pittsburgh
Pirates, 81. yesterday and retain
their six-game lead over the St,
Louis Cardinals in the National
League race.
Drive in Winning Runs.
Miksis and Rojek. filling in as a
keystone combination for Second
Basemap Ed Stanky and Shortstop
Pee Wee Reese. both sidelined by
spike wounds in Saturdays game
with Cincinnati, drove in the win
ming runs and played errorless ball
afield. Miksis slammed a seventh
inning homer and singled in four
times at bat. and Rojek drove in
Dixie Walker with a single in the
second inning.
In the cleanup spot for the
Dodgers was Veteran Arky Vaughan
filling in for the slumping Johnny
Jorgensen at third base. Vaughan
didn't hit yesterday, but his three
safeties helped defeat the Reds last
week.
Aaron Robinson. Johnny Lindell
Bobby Brown and AL Clark are the
Yankee trouble shooters who have
stepped in whenever regular had
to be rested for one reason or an
other. With Yogi Berra, the reg
ular receiver, out with a throat in
lection, Robinson filled in yesterday
and clouted a home run and two
singles In five times at bat. scored
twice and drove in five runs to lead
the Yankees to a 1876 victory over
the Chicago White Sox. The win
enabled the American League lead
ers to gain a split in their double
header at Chicago. The White Sox
won the opener, 80. The second
game was halted after seven innings
because of darkness.
Cards Rally to Win.
The Cardinals spotted the Braves
four runs in the first inning, then
came on to win, 9-5, in the first
of an important three-game series
in Boston. Led by Stan Musial
who poled his 18th home run, and
Pitcher Murry Dickson, who touched
off the winning rally with a bases.
