Nippy Jones' Return
Boon 10 Cardinals,
Back Near Top Again
BY the Associated Press

The comeback of Nippy Jones
has injected new life into the St.
Louis Cardinals. The rise in their
fortunes dates from Jones re-
turn to the varsity May Is.
Jones, whose career appeared
ended two years ago when he
was f1oored with a spinal injury
looked great in the spring, but
big Steve Bilko was awarded the
first base Job. Nippy was shunted
to the Cards Rochester farm in
the international League.
Despite the demotion, Jones
didn't sulk., He banged the nall
hard and often for Rochester
Bilko didn't live up to expectations
and Jones was called back to the
fiu-ridden Cards, who had lost
seven out of eight starts.
Hits in Seven Straight.
Nippy brought his blazing bat
with him and since his return the
Cards have won five out of seven
starts and moved back into con-
tention in the ding-dong pennant
race. Jones lusty swinging di-
rectly accounted for two of the
Cards triumphs.
Jones has hit safely in seven
straight games. He, ISIS failing
away at a .407 clip with IL hits
in 81 tries. He has driven in Il
runs and also has sparkled afield
Jones went to town Saturday

Stretching Of Single
Led 10 Mats Defeat;
Ladies' Night Tonight
By Burton Hawkins

With one daring dash, Orestes
Minoso. the swift. Spanish-speak-
ing Negro third baseman of the
White Sox, has pushed the Mats
to the brink of the second divi-
sion and they could take the COM
plete tumble tonight.
If Boston beats Detroit today.
the staggering Mats will have to
down the Chicago visitors before
a ladies' night crowd tonight in
order to retain a fourth-place tie
with the Red Sox. Defeated in
10 of their last Is games, the
Mats will place their faith in Bob
Kuzava, while the White Sox will
counter with Saul Rogovin, right
handler recently acquired from the
Tigers, in going for a sixth
straight win of a perfect Eastern
trip.
Set Up Insurance Run.
Meanwhile, the Mats have been
alerted that the White Sox in
general and Minoso in particular
will run them into defeat. Minoso
did it last night with a vital I'm
surance" run in the eighth inning
which stemmed from an audacious
sprint. 1t led to the last White Sox
run in a 5-3 victory and it turned
the game upside down from the
standpoint of Bucky Harris, the
Mats manager.
The Mats were trailing by only
one run when Minoso hit what
looked like a routine single to
center starting the eighth inning.
Centerfelder Irv Noren played it
in a routine manner and
awakened, embarrassed, for Min
oso simply legged a single into
double and changed the whole
complexion of the game.
Minoso went to third after
Eddie Robinson flied deep to
Noren. He was stranded momen-
.tarily-in tact. almost doubled of
third-when Al Zarilla lined to
!. Shortstop Gene Verble, but scored
on Chico Carrasquel's single to
center. Had Minoso run more
conservatively on his hit, Carras-
quel's single merely would have
! advanced him to third base and
the Mats would have had shot
at retiring Paul Lehner and es-
Gaping damage.
Mele's Triple Wasted.

Mats two runs behind and they
couldn't maneuver. Eddie Yost

sisted all along, I'm not worried
about Williams hitting. He'll hit.
OF course, I'd like to see him get

Williams failure to hit set off
the usual conjectures, such as
hes over the hill. He's lost
his timing. He's not in condi-
ton. The elbow he fractured
in the All-Star game last season
is bothering him."
Williams paid no attention to
any of these. although he indi-

the Bostonians into the battle for
the league lead.

doing him the worst possible harm
that she can do to him. Her alibi,
in the first place, is that she isn't
possessive and, in the second
place. that she is doing it for the
child's good.
If anyone told her that by keep
ing her children in a state of per-
petual babyhood she was doing a
worse thing than if she bound
their feet so they couldn't
walk, or did something to their
brains that turned them into
morons, or put some pressure on
their bodies that would stunt
their growths so they would be
dwarfs, she would be Mortified.
But when mother deliberately
units her children for life by
making them dependent upon her,
by never letting them use their
own judgments. by never forcing
any responsibility on them, she is
committing crime that is far
worse than any physical handicap
she could put upon them.

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: I have

she has son she is running and
who will break her heart later on

treating him as she does. She has
spoiled him until he is so selfish
that he thinks every wish must
be granted Immediately. She man
ages all of his affairs, knows his
whereabouts every minute, acts as
his valet when he dresses, waits
up and tucks him in bed. The boy
is good-looking, intelligent and
has a nice personality. He's not
physically fit for the service, he
can't keep job, and now that he
is facing the world he is going to
pieces. Is there any way that you
can suggest to make his mother
