Girl Baseball PLAYER
TyIst Again After
Minors Boss BoIks
BY the Associated Press

HARRISBURG, Pa, June a.
A firm mo" from George Traut-
man, the minor league baseball
boss, puts Eleanor Engle back
pounding a typewriter instead OF
|playing baseball with the Harris
burg Senators.
Trautman refused to okay Flea
|nor's contract with Harrisburg,
and furthermore said that "such
travesties" as the signing of
women players will not be toll
Grated. Any club signing or at
tempting to sign women from here
on will receive heavy penalties,
he indicated.
Several days ago Eleanor was
signed by Howard Gordon, general
manager of the Senators, but her
actual playing debut was delayed
pending an okay from Trautman
His refusal to accept the contract
sent her back to her job in the
State Capitol.
Despite all the wordage about
Eleanor's contract. she is not the
first woman to sign a contract in
organized baseball. Back in 1892,
Joe Engel, head of the Chatta-
nooga Lookouts Of the Southern
Association, signed Jackie Mitchell
as a pitcher. She played only in
exhibitions.

II guess you'll gimmie that one,
won't you, Ted?" Middlecof said.
"Can you make it?" Kroll came
back, leaving Middlecoff to putt
it out.
Kroll doffed his hat to the crowd
on his good shots and urged the
throng on by waving his arm in a
wide arc when Middlecoh missed
the putt on the seth that sent the
match into extra holes.
WeakenS in Heat.
Hamilton, 4 up on the faltering
champ after the first 18, spent
the lunch interval laughing and
Joking with friends. But he be-
trayed few signs Of nervousness
when he went out to the practice
tee and hit a few shots before
starting the second round.
Troubled during the morning
after an insect flew into his eye
and partially blinded him. Hamil-
ton began to weaken in the after
noon heat. From up at the 10Th.
he slumped off to a one-hole lead
at the 33d. But with the match
at stake, Bob came through with a
birdie 4 on the 35th to close out
the match.
AS opponents in a tough match,
Harbert and Turnesa aren't play
ers to be discounted. They have
both gone to the final round of
this tournament before. Turnesa
was runnerup to Sam Snead in
1912 and Harbert to Jim Ferrier
in 1947.

ABILENE. Tex, June "a
Sammy Baugh signed up for his
18th and-he says-last year with
the Washington Redskins at a
meeting here yesterday with Head
Coach Dick Todd. It's a new rec
ord for durability in the National
Football League, giving the former
Texas Christian star a years edge
on Mel Helm of the New York
Giants and Johnny Blood of the
Pittsburgh Steelers and Green Bay
Packers.
Baugh was an associate coach
lat Hardin-S Simmons University
during spring practice and seemed
to enjoy it.
II like the setup and I think
I'd like to take it on a permanent
basis when I quit playing" he
said. Besides, it's close to home. +"
Hardin-Simmons officials have
indicated that when Baugh winds
up his pro string he'll become head
coach of the Cowboys, with Muir
ray Evans, present head coach,
moving up to director of athletics.
Todd said the Redskins have
about IS men signed out of ap-
proximately so candidates, and
that he expected to have a pretty
good team if the armed forces
didn't take any more of them. He
believes the team can better last

NCAA Golf Qualifying
By the Associated Press

LAFAYETTE, Ind, June a.
Most of the field hoped for mercy
from the pin placers today in the
second and final round Of the
NCAA golf tournament qualifica-
tions, but Ken Ventura Of San
Jose State and Roger Dunn of
Southern California were satisfied
with the far-corner cups at Pur-
due University's south course.
Ventura and Dunn led the 172-
man field in the first round with
two-under-par 69s.
The San Jose stylist averaged
67.8 strokes in II dual meets this
spring so his performance wasn't
unexpected.
Dunn's shooting was more un-
common. He lost in the first
round of last years NCAA match
play after qualifying with a 512.
His conqueror, though. was Tom
Nieport Of Ohio State. the ulti-
mate champion.
The Southern Californian had
one of the hottest putter's in yes
terday's round. He took only "a
puts and needed only II on the
back nine. He dropped 'em in
from 40, Is. 20 and 10 feet.
Only one stroke back of the
leaders were Paul Harvey of Holy
Cross, the Eastern intercollegiate
champion; Sidney Frank of Hous-
ton and Jack Mesler of Purdue.
Billy Maxwell of North Texas
State, 1851 United States amateur
champ. and five other players
turned in even-par cards.
Dave Stanley of UCLA, last
years national public links cham
pion, looked like a doubtful quail
fer after shooting an 80. He also
failed by one stroke to qualify for
the 1851 NCAA meet.
