Second Bristol Ace
Pitches No-Hitter,
Fans 81 in Games
BY the Assoeioted Press

BRISTOL, Va.-Tenn., May 23.-
This mountain town that straddles
the Virginia. Tennessee border is
going nuts over the Nations most
fabulous Class D ball club.
Never have the folk hereabouts
seen such q collection of prize
rockies as the parent Pittsburgh
Pirates have planted at Bristol for
seasoning in the six-team Appa-
Ilachian League.
First there was Rocket Ron"
Necciai, 19-year-old super whiz
from Monongahela, Pa, who set
Ia modern baseball record with q
Istrikeouts in a nine-inning no.
hitter last week and famed "a
Wednesday in hurting a two-hit,
I'll triumph over Kingsport. Tenn.
But the Rocket didn't bask in
the spotlight all by himself.
The Twins have another pitcher
named Bill Bell, 18-year-old
Iright-hander from Goldsboro, N. C.
Bell, in his first start, whitfield 20
Jas Bristol walloped Bluefield,
w. Va, 1871.
Last night in his second start, ;
|he set down Kingsport without a.
hit and struck out II for q 10
win.
Bell, unlike Necciai. is pretty
wild right now. having issued IL
walks in both games. But observ-
|ers say he's nearly as fast as
|Necciai.

Yanks Release Hopp
In Order 10 Recall
Pitcher Bill Miller
By the Associated Press

CHICAGO, May 23.-The New
York Yankees have handed
Johnny Hopp. veteran utility in
fielder -outfielder, his uncondi-
tional release and announced the
recall of Bill Miller, rookie pitcher
from their Kansas City farm in
the American Association.
Manager Casey Stengel said that
all clubs had waived on the 35-
Iyear-old Hopp and that he had
been released so he can make a
deal for himself"
Under baseball law, Hopp, a 10
year man, could have been claimed
by any club for the nominal 81 fee.
The claiming club, however, would
have had to assume his $4,000
salary.
The veteran from Hastings,
|Nebr., was purchased by the
Yanks from the Pittsburgh Pi-
rates on September S, 1850, for
$4,000. He appeared in only 46
games last year, mostly at first
base. and batted .206. Johnny
also saw little service this season.
A pulled muscle, suffered while
serving in a pinch-running role,
has kept him sidelined for a week.
Miller. young southpaw, was
optioned to Kansas City May IS
in order to reduce the Yankee
squad to the prescribed IS players.
He had a IL record when sent
down.
