Many of the great performers
of the sporting world will not
be remembered this Memorial
Day, 1852. by the fans who
watched them perform their
feats of endeavor, but only by
their few faithful friends and
families.
AS in many other fields, these
men did not have to answer the
call of their country, but did so
because they felt it was their
just duty.
The majority of them came
bac,,. from battles of another
sport continued to stay in the
limelight of their particular
sport while the ones who were
not SC fortunate, lie somewhere,
out of the spotlight, beneath the
field of battle.
These are among the tragedies
that are overlooked by all the
humans of the world. These peo-
pie that have departed to an
other world, should be placed in
the highest honored position that
we human beings can find.
While they were achieving their
fame, we all were right with them
step by step, but as in so many
other walks of life, once they slip
ped or were eliminated, we picked
up the next one in line and started
to go up with him.
These athletes should be remem.
bered for what they did, for with
out them, you and / might not be
here right now enjoying the free
dom we are so used to. True they
are only a few, but several of them
have been awarded the highest
medal that this country gives, post.
humously.
We, of today, must take some
time out to remember and pay
hommage to the great ones OF
yesterdays well as those Of today

ratio Boston Red Sox lefty, has
joined Bobby Feller, Bob Cain and
Art Houtteman in the American
Leagues one-hit club.
For years McDermott alternated
between being new Lefty Grove
and new Rex Barney. Thursday
night he played the Grove role as
he faced only II Washington bat
ters. For a change he walked only
one.
Mel Hoderlein's single with one
out in the fourth wiped out his
hopes of matching Virgil Trucks
no-hitter. The string bean Red Sox
pitcher walked Eddie YoSt in the
first inning. He was erased when
Hoderlein hit into a double play.
Jackie Jensen wiped out Holder
lein'S single by grounding into a
double play in the fourth.
After the fourth inning, McDer-
mott faced only Is men. Only four
latters, including Hoderlein, hit
the ball out of the infield, as he
struck out seven in a magnificent
job, his third win of the year.
A base on balls to Clyde Vollmer
and Fred Hatfield's triple gave
Boston its 10 win in the sixth
inning. They collected 10 hits off
toughluck Bob Porterfield in break
ing their second place tie with the
Senator's. Porterfield now has lost
five, three by shutouts including
Trucks no-hitter.
