MusiaI Goes Hit|ess
For First Time in 81
Straight Games
BY me Assoelofed Prsss

NEW YORK, July Stan
Musials batting streak is at an
end today. but the star Cardinal
outfielder can be consoled by the
knowledge that he is only the 18th
big Lacquer to hit safely in 80 or
more consecutive games.
Musial entered yesterdays game
against the Dodgers with a run of
80 straight games in which he'd
hit safely. He had five chances
In which to keep the skein alive,
but failed.
STAINS teammates tried valiantly
to give. him last chance in the
ninth inning. Six men were due
to bat before him. All reached
base. But the slugger grounded
into double play.
Musials immediate goal was the
team high of hitting in 33 straight
games set by Rogers Hornsby in
1922. The second was the modern
National League mark of 81 games
established by Tommy Holmes of
the Braves in 1945.
Di Maggie Holds Record.
Afoer that would have come the
all-time National League record of
A games set by Baltimore's Willie

When Di Maggie compiled his

vious American League high of Al
off the books. Sisler made his run
with the Browns in 1922. Ty Cobb
had hit in 40 straight games for
the Tigers in 1911.
Cobb and Sisler are the only

Alexander 7 Strokes
On Top After Setting
Circuit Mark
By the Associated Press

SIOUX CITY, Iowa, July 28.-
Skip Alexander, the bespectacled
31-year-old Southerner, had a
two-stroke lead today as profess
sional golf's hot-shots entered the
second round Of the Sioux City
Open tournament.
Alexander was in front of the
pack after posting a ecord-break-
ing SO at the 6,506-yard Elmwood
course yesterday. It was the lowest
score on the PGA's summer cir
cult and the best round ever
played at Elmwood.
Skip, pro at the Deanne Hill
Club, Knoxville, Tenn, canned a
9-foot putt on the 18th hole for
a birdie 3. That enabled him to
shear two strokes from the course
record and landed him nine
strokes under par 70.
Alexander needed his record
smashing pace to edge Sam Snead
and Jack Burke. jr., for the lead.
Burke was first In with a 65.
Snead moved in at late day with
his IS, missing four foot putt on
18 for a birdie.
Then along came Skip with his
dazzling round. A good share of
the some 5000 spectators who
turned out for the first-round
business had followed Alexander.
Three challengers for the $4,000
top prize in the SIS, 900 meet were
deadlocked at SOS. They were Ed
(Porky) Oliver, Seattle: Henry
Ransom, st. Andrews, Ill, and
Paul OLeary. the young Bismarck

divers f1rst-nine 80 featured
an eagle on the ninth hole. He
steered his 75-yard low approach
from the woods right into the cup.
Best nine in the many subpar
tours was Jimmy Demaret's 80 on
the front side. But Jimmy ran
into atrocious luck in his putting
in the stretch. He slipped to a
80 and q 50 finish. Jim Ferrier,
winner of the st. Paul Open, also
had a SO.
There were 122 starters and Al
came in with under-par scores.
Twenty-nine had 79's or better.
