RESULTS
BY RALPH RoDEN
Associated Press Sports Writer

SSSttS
The st. Louis Cardinals long
search for righthanded pitcher
of the caliber of Mort Cooper may
be over.
Willard Schmidt, a pitcher not
even on the Red Bird roster,
looms as one of the finest right
handed pitching prospects the
Cards have come up with since
Big Mort left st. Louis.
The hard throwing rookie right
handler has as much chance to
stick as Vinegar Bend Mizell, the
highly publicized lefthander.
Fred Saigh, Cardinal president,
said recently:
Schmidt has great chance to
stay up because of his great poiSe,
good control and the fact that he's
faster than any pitcher except Mi
zell."
Schmidt has appeared in four
games so far and hasn't yielded
an earned run in IA innings. He
has allowed eight hits, walked only
four and struck out IS.
The husky 22-year old is on the
Houston Texas League roster. He
won 10 and lost IA with Omaha
of the Western League in 1851.
Schmidt and lefty Cliff Chambers
teamed up Tuesday to pitch the
Cards to an ITO 4-hit victory over
the Cincinnati Reds at Tampa
Schmidt allowed two hits in five
innings, walked three and famed
six.
The Boston Braves won a bril-
liant 14-inning 10 duel from the
World Champion New York Yanks
at st. Petersburg. Negro rockies,
speedy Bill Bruton and George
Grove, doubled with two out in
the 14th off Joe Ostrowski to break
up the game.
Pittsburgh also grabbed an extra
inning decision, nosing out the New
York Giants, 80 in IL innings, at
San Bernardino, Calf. Bill How
erton broke up the game with a
2-out, 2-run pinch-hit triple.
Brilliant pitching also featured
the Chicago White Sox 2-1 triumph
over Cleveland at Pasadena, Calf.
and the Philadelphia Phils' 2-1 vic
tory over the Washington Senator's
at Clearwater.

delphia Athletics .'A'' team, al.
at Lakeland.

Round 10

MUNSAN, Korea IR Allied
spokesman reported truce negotia-
tors neared agreement today on
the 10 ports of entry to be used
during a Korean armistice.
United Nations negotiators pro-
posed a compromise. The Commu-
nlsts promised to think it over. AT
the end of their 53-minute discus
sion, Col. Andrew j. Kinney said:
1T appears that we are in agree
ment on the better part of the
ports question"
Another group of staff officers
met for only few minutes be-
cause neither side could answer a
series of questions asked previCas-
ly by the other concerning ex-
change of prisoners.
Unverified rumOrs circulated
around the truce village of Pan
munJom that some new step was
in the making to break the long
deadlock over prisoners.
Communist newsmen, who often
reflect the view of Red delegates,
talked of truce agreement in
three or four weeks.
Three major disagreements
stand in the way of an armistice.
There has been no indication a
solution was near ON any. The key
disputes:
l. Voluntary repatriation of pris-
oners as demanded by the Allies
versus forced repatriation demand
ed by the Reds.
2. The question of whether Com
munists should be allowed to re-
pair their damaged airfields dur
ing a truce.
3. Communist insistence ON So
Wet Russia as a neutral nation to

refusal to consider it.

Under the new Allied proposal
the North Korean capital of Pyong-

Pyongyang, asking for the more

The plan would also designate
