Baltimore Nine Hand!
Brewers 1st Defeat
In Tourney, a 10 7
By Bill Fuchs

Heurich's Brewers had sudden
attack of paralysis at the plate
yesterday at Griffith Stadium and
the Brown Derby team Of Balti-
more hung a Al defeat on them,
their first in the All-American
Amateur Baseball Association
tournament.
AS a result, the Brewers must
face Spring Grove. Mdv defend
ing champion, in the first game
of today's twin-bill finale at 1880
pm. at Griffith Stadium. The
victor meets Baltimore for the
title in the nightcap at $3.50.
Up to yesterday, the Brewers
were the muscle team of the tour
nament, which started last Tues
day, with Is teams. Manager
Pepco Barry and Crew slaughtered
four opponents, including this
same Baltimore team, with bar
rage that included SIS runs and
ga hits.
Smith Hurls Six-Hitter.
Baltimore lost an 11-2 decision
to Washington in the second
round. But before making their
next move against the Brewers,
they called Smith-Jack Smith,
that is-and he moved his team
along with q neat hitter.
Big Johnny Norris. who started
for the Brewers, was coaSting along
on a 20 lead when he gave up
his fifth hit in the sixth inning to
the first man up-Ed Drost. Drost
poled the ball deep in centerf1eld
near the scoreboard for an inside
the-park home run.
But it was left fielder Henry
Schluter who did most damage,
raining out triple to deep center,
scoring Drost. who had walked,
and Mike Kardash. who had sin
gled, in the eighth. Norris left
the game at this point and lefty
Johnny Clements took over. Eddie
O'Brien, who went in to run for
Schluter, romped home when Bill
Kidd grounded out to deep short.
Brewers Score Early.
The Brewers looked the same
old power-packers in the first two
innings, when they collected four
of their six hits. They scored
both runs in the second wnen Jim
Francis doubled and Jerry Zan-
ellotti and Elmer Lukehardt SIN
gled. After that, however, only
four men reached first, two by
walks and two by singles. Smith
walked only two and struck out
one, while Norris walked two and
famed five.
Spring Grove worked It's way
to today's windup by pasting
GAINESVILLE, Ohio, 1871. Andy
Frahler gave up only six hits,
while his mates were collecting IA
of three GAINESVILLE hurlers.

BROOKLYN, Sept. 10-The
Brooklyn Dodgers edged the New
York Giants. 5-4, today. scoring
the winning run in the ninth
inning. OH Pitcher Erv Palica'S S
scratch single. a slow bounder off
First Baseman Joe Lafata's glove.
The hit brought In Bruce Edwards
from third base.
Edwards walked to open the
inning and raced to third when
Duke Snider's grounder went
through Billy Rigney's legs for
a two-base error.
Palica. with the infield in,
topped the ball towards first.
Lafata charged the ball but lost
the handle and Edwards was
home. Lafata then disgustedly
picked up the ball and threw it
into the upper stands back of third
base.
The Giants waged an uphill
battle throughout. Brooklyn
clipped Monty Kennedy for two
runs in the third on Roy Cam
panella's goth homer and singles
by Don Newcombe and Pee Wee
Reese and Ed Miksis' fly ball.
Newcombe, seeking his 10th VIC
tory, gave up a run in the fourth
and was driven out in favor of
Palica in the sixth when the
Giants scored twice to take a 80
lead.
The Dodgers scored two lucky
runs in the bottom of the sixth
to move ahead, 4-3.
With the bases loaded and one
out. Edwards grounded to Rigney
who started seemingly easy dou-
BILE play but Second Baseman
Hank Thompson threw wild
while pivoting and Miksis and
Carl Furillo scored.
The Giants tied it up in the
seventh on Rigney's single. Sni-
der's two base error and Whitley
Lockman's hit through the middle
Palica's "bleeder" broke up the
game and squared his record at
8-8.

1876 Doctors Reported
Opposing ANA on
Health Insurance
By the Assoeioted Press

NEW YORK, Feb. 12.-The New
York Herald Tribune says 1856 doc
tors have protested against the
American Medical Associations
failure to develop a medical pro-
gram that would forestall Govern
ment health insurance proposals.
The newspaper said the 1856 doc
tors also told the association they
would not pay a $25-per-member
assessment for fighting the Gov
ernment proposals if the money is
to be used only or propaganda and
lobbying.
The doctors. according to the
newspaper, all said they are
against compulsory health insur-
ance and represent a "middle-of-
the-road' group.
Letter To Fishbein.
Their letter was quoted as say
ing that the present threat" of a
Government program could be
averted only by an ANA plan so
manifestly advantageous to the
public and physicians that it
would be acceptable in preference
to any other"
The Herald Tribune said the
letter. directed to DR.. Morris Fish
bein, editor of the Journal of the
ANA, said this of the assessments:
IF the funds are to be used for
propaganda and legislative lobby
ing instead of developing COM
prehensive medical care program
we are heartily opposed to the
levy and shall refuse to pay it,
and we urge all PHYSICIANS with
sense of responsibility for the fu-
ture of American medicine to reg
lister their protest.
Says Suspicion Will Be Aroused.
"The significance of stand-pat
propaganda will not escape the
public. This will add to the al
ready firmly rooted suspicion that
the associations objectives are
primarily economic and selfish"
The letter. according to the
newspaper. said the associations
fundamental failure" was Its
unwillingness fully to acknowledge
the need for improvement and to
seize this particularly favorable
opportunity to come forward with
comprehensive, constructive pro-
gram"
The Herald Tribune said those
signing the message included
some of the Nations most dis
tinguished doctors.
Signers of an accompanying let
ter, the newspaper said, includes
DR.. George Baehr, former presi-
dent of the New York Academy of
Medicine, now in Baltimore; Dr..
Edwards Park, Baltimore pedia-
trician; DR.. w. Barry Wood of St.

tested seats. held by Queens Uni
