a course as tough as All View

The municipal course that gets
about rs per cent of its play from

The Spiders are tied with Mary

does not play today, pulled itself
up into the deadlock yesterday by
trimming William and Mary. 81,

Washington dropped back notch
with an unexpected 8-5 loss to
Virginia Tech at Blacksburg.
The Virginia Tech victory also
put the Gobblers in contention
with a Az record. Tech is playing
West Virginia in a double-header
today at Blacksburg and a couple
of victories there would muddle
the situation further.
George Washington has a 4-3
record, but with four loop foes

considered. ....,
rerps Seal Game in Fourth.
At Williamsburg, the Terrapins
got three-hit pitching from Boots
PAMELA and came up with a FIVE
run spree in the fourth to bag
the game.
Altogether 10 men went to bat
in the fourth. Two walks and a
hunted single by Dave Eats loaded
the bases. Another walk forced
in a run. A new Richmond pitcher
arrived. an error sabotaged his
efforts and let in two runs. A
single by Gene Giuseppe drove in
two more.
The Indians got both their runs
in the same inning on a single and
two Maryland errors. Otherwise
PAMELA was in trouble only in the
seventh, but he came up with a
pair of strikeouts to stop that
threat. Altogether. he famed
nine men for his third win against
one defeat.
CIV Is Beaten OF Early.
George Washington didn't get
going at %Blacksburg until the
fourth inning when it came up
with a three-run rally. But by
that time the Gobblers had a 60
lead with two runs in the second
and four more in the third. That
third inning was the worst as far
as the Colonials were concerned
with three triples doing the dam
age. A seventh Inning homer by
Eddie Pierce of Virginia Tech also
hurt.

Greenberg Thinks indians
Now. Have Whot 1t Takes

CLEVELAND. May / P).-Big
Lou Brissie brings his southpaw
speed into the Indians wigwam
today, and top officials of the
Cleveland club now think they
have what it takes to cop the
pennant.
The Indians have four fine
right handlers, but a championship
clubs needs a good leftie. General
Manager Hank Greenberg has
tried for months to get one.
He got one yesterday in the
three-club, seven-player deal that
pried Brissie away from the Ath-
letics. To do it. Hank gave the
White Sox Orestes Minoso, a 27-
year-old Cuban Negro infielder,
who he thinks will become one of
the games great players.
Greenberg Optimistic.
Its the kind of a deal a club
makes when it's going all-out for
the pennant," Greenberg said.
"BriSSie certainly improves our
prospects of winning this year.
And even if we don't, we've got a
fellow young enough (Brissie will
be ~ next month"; to help us for
at least the next five years"
Greenberg said no cash was in
volved in the deal.
BriSSie won only Z and lost 10
for the Athletics last year, but
the Indians are banking that a
change of scenery and the incen-
tive of being with pennant con-
tender will help the hard-throw-
ing southpaw.
Brissie Belatedly Pleased.
Brissie, whose first comment
was. Il didn't think they'd trade
me-" later called it a lucky break
going from last place right UP
to first place."
Il only hope I can help the
Indians win the pennant," he
added.
A fairly general reaction to the
trade was summed up by Manager
Steve O'Neill who brought his Red
Sox here last night. He COM
mented:
THE Indians got themselves a
pretty good pitcher. I guess it
was a good deal all around"
The three managers directly
concerned had this to say:
AL Lopez. Cleveland: 1--WE
needed a left-handed pitcher
badly and I think we got a good
one. If he's as good as hear he
is, then our staff is all set"
Paul Richards, Chicago: Min
oso is the kind of player you need
to win pennants. He's the guy
we wanted. He'll show them
something"
Jimmy Dykes, Philadelphia: I'VE
didn't want to let BrisSie go, but
we had to give up something to
get something. We wanted out
f1elders who could give us power.
I've always liked Gus Zernial.
He'll be a constant threat"
Richards will use Minoso ct
third base and play Paul Lehner
in the left field spot vacated by
Dave Philley, who went to the
Athletics with Zernial.
May Miss Minoso.
With Birdie Tebbetts to spell
Jim Hogan behind the plate, the
Indians don't need Catcher Ray
Murray. husky 31-year-old long
ball hitter who also went to the
AS
The Tribe may, however, miss
Minoso who batted .297 and .339
in the past two seasons at San
Diego and had homer totals of
% and 20. He had been relieving
Luke Easter at first base. Casters
tender left leg has sidelined him
three times in the past month. A
25-year-old rookie outfielder, Har-
ry Simpson, will be at first for
Cleveland tonight-his first try
at the position.
But we knew we weren't going
to win the pennant with Minnie at
first base" Greenberg explained.
eff Easter gets over his miseries
and can play pretty regularly,
we may be able to win it with him
and Brissie. That's the gamble
we took"

Prepare Rebuttal
To Graef's Book on
Therese Neumann

MUNICH - (NC) - A group of
German theologians-all of them
long familiar with the phenomena
at Konnersreuth-is preparing an
extensive rebuttal to the book by
HiIda c. Graef, 1.-THE Case of
Therese Neumann." This book pur-
ports to show that Therese Neu-
mann, famed stigmatic of that Ba-
varian village, is but a victim of
hysteria, and that her mystical ex-
periences are not of supernatural
origin. All these German theo-
logians are personally acquainted
with Therese and have examined
her in her ecstasies over period
of many years.
1t is pointed out in this connec-
tion that both Miss Graef herself
and the writer's she has relied up
