NEVER sosNEAR

It is defeat that turns bone TO
flint, and gristle to muscle and
makes men invincible, and formed
those heroic natures that are now
in ascendency in the world. Do
not then be afraid of defeat. You
are never so near to victory as
when defeated in a good cause

 FOR REST

BUFFALO, NY. June 23-R-- Joe Mccarthy, 63-year-old ailing manager of the ailing Boston Red Sox. rested comfortably today in his suburban farm home after at tacks of pleurisy and temper.
 The pleurisy. together with a touch of influenza, came in Chicago earlier this week. It prompted doc tors to send him home for a rest.
 The attack of temper came as he strode through the gates at Buff falo airport yesterday and made a half hearted pass at photographer who snapped his picture. It prompted his wife, who met him at the airport. to remark, No no. Joe don't do that"
 Denials came from all hands on reports that Mccarthy was quitting the Red Sox. who have lost Il of their last 13 games.

By CHARLES CHAMBERLAIN

COLUMBUS, O., June 23-iRt- Sam Snead, noted among his col leagues as the most thrify non- Scot in history, began defense of his national PGA crown today jingling S250 as the meets medalist.
 Never since the birth of the PGA tourney in 1919 has a defending champion. automatically exempt from the 36-hole qualifying round, condescended to compete anyway for the sake of picking up extra cash. That is, until Snead,, who tops the money winners with more than S2l ,0o0 and, according to the pro pack. still has every cent ot it. came along.
 Yesterday over the tough 7,032- yard Scioto course his lethal chip shots, which left him with only 25 butts for the round, supported a dazzling 68.
 This four-under-par effort gave him a 36-hole total of TAO and medalist honors.
 Bidding 39-year-old Al Brosch, ot Garden City, NY. the 36-hole leader of the 1949 National Opeu came in with TO today for 142 But he had to be content as run- ner-up medalist, worth absolutely nothing.

The Pacific Coast League comes up with a brand new set of heroes today, with Oaklands Artie Wilson probably the most stalwart of the bunch.
 Whether the Oakland shortstop's game winning triple surpassed in portent the game winning double of Seattle's Tod Davis or the sterling relief job of Hollywood's Ken Leh- man is matter of sectional con- lecture.
 But MT. Wilson did accomplish this much: he pushed Los Angeles another step nearer the cellar, broke up a 13-inning ball game and hu- initiated one of the circuits fore most pitchers, Calvin McLish.

CLINTWOOD HAS NOISY
WEEK END

There was much brawling, if
little bloodshed, in Clintwood
over the weekend.
A free-for ALI took place on
Mcclure Avenue Saturday night.
At least a dozen berry lads mill
ed about, talked big, and swap
ped a few blows. The same thing
started on the Avenue Sunday
night and finally overlooked on
to Main Street. Some of the bat
tiers drew knives, but none used
them. A passage at arms took
place in front of the five and ten
cent store, where a window was
broken. The intermittent battle
drifted down the street and paus
ed for few moments in front of
the theatre. The boys apparently
wore themselves out and drifted
away, leaving no serious damage
