WATFORD, England, July TO-

Size in the fifth race. They then
took up posts near the bend into
the home stretch, one of them
with the cat tucked under his
arm.
My Size ran wide at the first
turn. hit the fence and dropped
far behind the field.
AS the dogs entered the home
stretch, the cat sailed through
the air and landed in front of
them. The dogs quit chasing the
mechanical rabbit. and took off
across the inf1eld after the cat.
The race was declared void and
all bets were refunded.
The defendants, who pleaded

Unfortunately. DiMaggio did not

Casey Stengel is the manager
Of the Yankees. That's me. I
give the orders. Who took Joe out
of the lineup last year when he
thought Joe needed a rest? I did.
Who took him out of the cleanup
spot when he wasn't hitting? I did.
He is in the lineup now because as
much as he has slipped he is still
better than some of those me-
diocre fellows. He is still making
diving catches for me. And he is
still going from first to third on

Sugar Ray Faces
Strong Puncher
In Young Briton
Rated Al Fuvorite,
However, to Keep
Title in London
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, July 10.-Sugar Ray
Robinson puts his world middle
weight title on the line tonight
against one of the hardest punch
ers ever developed in Britain, 23-
year-old Randolph Turpin.
The chances are so strong that
Robinson will keep the crown that
he is rated a 4-to-1 favorite. If
you like Turpin-most folks seem
to feel he's a nice young lad being
tossed to hungry tiger-you can
get odds of 8 to l.
Although the odds make it look
like a one-sided battle, the match
has a great deal of interest among
the paying public. Promoter Jack
ISolomons sold out the 18,000-seat
indoor Earl's Court Arena within
ia hours after the signing of the
contracts.
S224,OOO Gate Expected.
The gross will run around $224,-
900, with Robinson getting about
$84,000-tfe biggest purse ever
paid fighter here.
Turpin also is getting his big
gest purse since he turned pro in
1916, about $4,000.
The fight, which includes four
supporting bouts in addition to
seven novice heavyweight scraps,
will start about 4:30 pm. (EDT).
Turpin has the physical equip
ment to pull an upset. He's eight
years younger than Robinson. He
lis fast, strong as an OK, natural
middleweight without poundage
worries and carries a knockout
punch in both hands.
Turpin's Reach Longer.
A half-inch shorter than the
champion at S feet 10l2, Turpin
has a longer reach. thicker chest
and bigger muscles. And he
probably will outweigh Sugar by
2 or pounds at the weigh-in.
But by world standards he is
woefully inexperienced. Americas
National Boxing Association last
week listed him first among the
outstanding boxers" in the mid
dleweight division, but didn't class
him good enough to be considered
a logical contender for Robinson'S
title. Nobody was.

Reserve Clause Wins
Support Of Players;
0ff-Season Play Hit
By the Associated Press

DETROIT, July 10. - Major
league ball players were formally
on record today in favor of the
reserve clause, the legal gimmick
that has been called everything
from a "slave-maker" to base
balls life-Saver."
The 16 player representatives
from each team in the majors
meeting here on the eve of the
All-Star game, voted last night in
favor of a resolution giving club
owners a vote of confidence in
their retention of the reserve
clause.
Freddie Hutchinson of the
Tigers and Ralph Kiner of the
Pirates said players felt the clause
was necessary to the solidarity
of baseball" Hutchinson repre-
sents the American League players
and Kiner the National League.
Vote Plaque for Chandler.
Outgoing Commissioner A. B.
(Happy) Chandler also received a
pat on the back from the players,
who voted to give him a plaque
for his services to players in both
leagues.
Kiner said the National League
owners and player representatives
agreed not to schedule any double
headers or night games during the
spring training season. Kiner said
the owners agreed to get the per-
mission of the player representa-
|tives before scheduling any double
header to make up a rained-out
day game.
National League owners and
players also agreed to establish a
Icurfew on all regular season day
and night games. The exact time
limits for games are to be set at
IA future date.
Hutchinson said the American
League owners and players agreed
to future discussion on the FEAST
bility of earlier starting times for
day games in the spring and the
fall. Hutchinson said the move
was designed to take advantage
Iof the opportunity to play the
games in daylight.
Strike at Cuban Players.
The player representatives re-
Equested club owners not to sched-
Iule night games before May or
after September Is. Hutchinson
said the players felt the early and
late season night games ran into
too much adverse weather.
Club owners also were asked tc
eliminate twi-night twin bills.
Players in the American League
adopted a resolution calling fol
the league Executive Board tc
forbid any major league player
from participating in off-season
games outside the continental
United States. The player repre-
sentatives said the resolution die

The starting lineup is where the

department in which the Ameri-

American League Hurt.
The American League is handi-
capped by injuries to key players
Iplus a rule that limits the mana
ger to choose no more than one
pitcher from each team. Thus
Manager Casey Stengel was forced
to pick such hurlers as Philadel-
phia's Bobby Shantz. Washing
tons Con Marrero and Chicago's
Randy Gumpert in preference to
Cleveland's Bob Feller and New
York's Vic Raschi and Allie
Reynolds.
At least three members of the
American League all-stars are
"ailing." but Stengel said nobody
would be excused. He denied the
request of Manager AL Lopez OF
the Indians to excuse Outfielde1
Larry Dolby from action. Lopez
pleaded Dolby was handicapped
by pulled leg muscle.
Stengel pointed out he intended
using Yogi Berra, his own catcher
behind the plate for the entire
game although Yogi is bothered
by bad back.
Leg Injuries Bother Two.
Joe DiMaggio, another Yankee
and Third Baseman Vern Stephens
of the Red Sox are bothered by
leg injuries. and Chico Carras-
quel, White Sox shortstop, is still
not fully recovered from a spike
wound in his foot.
Manager Ed Sawyer of the Ma
tionals reported his squad in tip
top share. He selected his own
pitcher Robin Roberts of Phila-
delphia, to start for the Nationals
Casey's nomination was Ned Gar
yer OF the Browns, to make it g
battle of right-handers.
It was to be Roberts second
straight starting assignment. The
24-year-old native of Springfield
ILL.,, buried the first three innings
of the 1850 classic, won by the
Nationals, and allowed one run
and three hits. Carver never be-
fore had been named to an all
star squad. Roberts league record
is 10-7 and Garver's is 11-4.
LOpat to Follow Carver.
Stengel said he probably would
follow Carver with Ed Lopat, Yam
lkee SOuthpaw for the middle throe
innings and finish up with either
Bob Lemon of Cleveland or Fred
Hutchinson of Detroit. No hurler
is allowed to pitch more than
three innings unless the game goes
into extra innings.
Sawyer said he had not decided
who would be his second and third
pitchers.

DETROIT, July 10.-Casey STEM
gel, manager of the New York
Yankees. denied today that any
animosity existed between him and
Joe DiMaggio, his slipping outfielc
star, and berated those who are
trying to embarrass Joe through
me-"
IF didn't like the fellow, why
would I pick him for the All-Star
team and bring him here?" STEM
gel demanded. The fans didn't
pick him. I did.
Certain sharpshooters have
been trying to knock DiMaggio
down for years." Casey continued.
They wait until he slips little
then-bang-they give him the
works. Now why should they do
that to a great ballplayer and a
great guy like Joe?
Hes been a great star for years
and a great credit to the Yankees
and baseball. Why should I, of
all people, have anything against
the guy. Why. he made me great
manager. Do you think would
have been successful without him
in the lineup? They called me a
lousy manager in Brooklyn and
Boston"
RumOrs Started Last Year.
Rumors Of strife between STEM
gel and DiMaggio first began last
summer when Casey dropped Joe
out of the cleanup spot and at
tempted to convert the great CEN
terf1elder into a first baseman.
These rumors were revived over
the week end when Stengel re-
moved DiMag from the lineup in
Saturdays game at Boston, after
the Red Sox had scored six runs
in the first inning.
A reporter went to see DiMagglo
in the clubhouse and asked why
he was taken out of the lineup
Go see the manager" Joe re-
piled. Maybe he'll tell you"
Stengel explained that he re-
moved DiMag, along with Phi
Rizzuto and Gerry Coleman, in
order to "rest" them for the next
days game with the Red Sox.
