Washington swimmers were
hospitable to the nth degree last
night, permitting out-of- town
competitors to win all the eight
senior mems and women's open
events in the seventh annual A.
Earle Weeks Memorial swimming
meet at Takoma Park pool. The
truth is. though, that the invad-
ers simply set a blistering pace
through about the best SWIM
ming ever seen here.
Before a crowd of 600. meet
records were set in the 200-yard
free styles for men and women.
The first came when Jimmy

fellow student at the University of

two seconds off the standard set
by Jess Greenbaum. also of Lake

Griffs, Defeated in Is
OF Last 18 TiIts, Face
Tribes sWynn Tonight
By Burton Hawkins

Early Wynn, the former Wash
ington chattel who escaped with a
4-3 victory over the Mats the only
time he faced them this season
will attempt to heap additional
indignity on his ex-mates tonight
when the Cleveland Indians invade
Griffith Stadium for the opener of
a three-game series.
Wynn, stocky right-hander who
owns an 80 record, will be opposed
by Mickey Harris, hard luck left
handler who has been unable to
win for the Mats since being ac-
quired from the Boston Red Sox
six weeks ago.
Washington swept five straight
games from the Indians early in
the season, but since has captured
only one Of 10 decisions. The In
dians meanwhile have recovered
from a disheartening start to
provide chief contention for the
league-leading New York Yankees.
Scarborough Drops Tough One.
The Mats dropped their 18th
tussle in 18 games last night
despite Ray Scarborough's finest
pitching performance in weeks.
Ray dropped a 20 verdict to st.
Louis Karl Drews, who scattered
eight Washington hits and allowed
only one Nat to reach third.
Scarborough, touched for 10
hits, yielded a run in the fourth
inning when Jerry Priddy singled,
took second after Roy Sievers
fouled to Gil Coan in deep left
and scored on Sherman Lollar's
single.
That 10 deficit confronted the
Mats until the ninth, when it
mounted to 20. Paul Lehner and
Ed Pellagrini singled successfully,
but Drews forced Lehner at third.
Bob Dillinger, who took over the
league batting lead at .349 with
three hits, singled to center, scor-
ing Pellagrini.
Dillinger Caught Mapping.
When the throw to the plate
skipped past Eddie Robinson and
Jake Early, Drews tried to score,
but was out on Scarborough's re-
turn throw to Robinson, covering
the plate. Dillinger, believing
three we're out, strolled of third
base to pick up his glove and was
the victim of Robinson's quick
throw to Eddie Yost.
Dick Kokos' chin was gashed in
the sixth inning when he at
tempted to score from third on
Pellagrini's bunt. Scarborough
whipped the ball to Early and
Kokos was cut by Jake's mask
when he came in standing. Kokos
returned to duty but was forced
to leave the game in the seventh
inning. "
