Expansion Of Stadium
May Shift Redskins
Contest 10 Maryland
Special nispateh 10 The Stur

BALTIMORE. Aug. 24.-Navy
football fans in this area had
one eye on Annapolis, where the
Middies opened practice today,
and the other on the Baltimore
Stadium where Navy might-and
might not-play Cornell Octo-
ber 10 and Duke November 7.
Things are so confused at Mu-
nicipal Stadium, where the con-
struction of a second deck is in
progress. that nobody knows
what the outcome will be. There
is even talk of shifting the Ma
tional Football League exhibition
between the Colts and Redskins
to Byrd Stadium at the Univer-
sity of Maryland.
Colts officials are worried. In
fact they've called a meeting
today to discuss the problem.
The problem centers around that
construction work, which right
now is an eyesore and during
the football season will be an
eye-block to writer's covering the
games and fans seated in front
of the press box.
Part of Field Obscured.
If you sit in the press box or
in front of it you'll be able to
see the entire game-provided
the play is confined to the north
ern half of the field. Any move
south and you might just as well
be outside the stadium.
Navy plans to take up the
problem this week and the out
come may be a shift of the Cor
nell and Duke games to AM
napolis.
There is one solution, but it
presents still another problem.
That would be moving the field
north. That would be all right,
except for those who hold tickets
on the 50-yard line. They'd still
have their tickets, but they'd be
in the neighborhood of the 30
yard line. Sportswriters, who
find they can cover game bet
ter if they can see it, also would
be on the 30-yard line.
AS for the RedSkinS-Colts eX-
hibition September 20, the crowd
may be limited to $4,000. If the
Orioles make the International
League playoffs, officials will not
be able to put down temporary
seats for the football exhibition.
Officials have been counting on
5000 temporary seats for the
football game, but the baseball
playing area and the conStruc-
ton forms would leave no room
to put them.
Rows Over Construction.
The construction also has re-
suited in some choice disputes.
One construction official says the
second deck has too much of a
slant. while city officials have

Rosen May Become
Seventh 10 Sweep
Top Hitting Honors
BY the Associated Press

Cleveland'S vanishing Indians
rate as the biggest flop in the
American League, but AL Rosen,
their chief hatchet man, is head
ing for the elusive triple crown
as we'll as the circuits most val
liable player award.
The slashing third baseman,
who gave evidence of future
stardom when ne led the league
in home runs in his rookie year
in 1850, is the No. l guy today
in batting, runs batted in, and
home runs.
Only three players in each
league in the long history of the
game have been able to win the
triple crown. They were the
American Leagues Ted Williams
G942, 194O, Lou Gehrig Q934)
and Jimmy Foxx Q933); and the
National Leagues Rogers Horns
by 1922, 1929, Chuck Klein
0933) and Joe Medwick (193O.
Average Rises to 1926.
Rosen boosted his batting av-
erage to 1926 yesterday, getting
three hits in six times at bat as
the Indians dubbed the Browns
twice, 81 and 80. Al hammered
his 33d homer in support of
Art Houtteman's shutout pitch
ing in the nightcap and batted
in four runs to increase his total
to 116, tops in both leagues.
Rosen is now three-tenths of
point ahead of Washington's
Mickey Vernon in the batting
race. The nearest man to his
RBI total is Yogi Berra of the
YankS. who has only SO. Gus
Zernial of the AS is only two
behind with 81 homers.
Al also has a chance to move
ahead in runs scored and total
hits. Minnie Minoso of the
White Sox leads with SO runs,
seven more than Rosen has.
Vernon, tops with 1853 hits, is
only 10 ahead of Al.
Raschi Blanks AS.
Despite the double victory,
the third-place Indians still re-
mained 13 games behind the
league-leading Yankees, who
blanked the Athletics, 40, be-
hind the six-hit pitching of Vic
Raschi. The runnerup White Sox
struggled to within 81a games of
the Yankees, sweeping a twin
bill from the Tigers, 81 and
11-6. The Red Sox topped Wash
ington 5-4, with the help of Ted
Williams fifth home run in 25
official times at bat since his
return from Korea.
Brooklyn increased its margin
over Milwaukee to nine games,
drubbing the hapless Pirates
twice while the Cubs were hold
ing the Braves to a split. The
Dodgers clubbed nine pitchers
into submission, winning 10-4
and 81.
Johnny KlippStein snapped
the Braves eight-game winning
streak, pitching the Cubs to a
7-2 triumph after Warren SPAIN
had hurled his 10th victory in
Milwaukee's 1912 opening sue
cess. The second game was
called after seven innings be-
cause of darkness.
Giants Drop Seventh in Row.
Earl Torgeson drove in three
runs with home run and single
to give the Phillies a 6-2 triumph
and a sweep of the four-game
series with New York. It was
the seventh straight loss-long-
est of the year-for the Giants.
Southpaw Ken Raffensberger
pitched and batted Cincinnati
to a 5-3 victory over st. Louis
to drop the Cardinals into fourth
place, a half-game behind the
Phillies. Raffensberger helped

nine were changed. The original
course was in play in 1922, the
short ''inside nine" was put lin
about 1927, and the woods nine
was added In 1929. The woods
nine used to be tighter than it
is today by at least i've yards on
each side Of several Of the fair,
ways. but some Of the trees have
been thinned out.
Manor is 6.3O5 yards long and
from the seldom-used extreme
back tees is tough golf course.
The yardage means little, how
ever. for it is accuracy that pays
dividends. SHINE of the mem
bers play it cute and use spoons
or long irons of the tees for
accuracy'S sake. Others take
drivers and blast away, hoping
the friendly monkeys in the trees
will toss the balls back in the
fairway. OF course there are
no monkeys, but there has to
be some way Of explaining errant
shots that riccochet from the
trees and end up in the fairway.
Two Marks For BrownelI.
Bobby Brownell. the eight-time
District Amateur champion,
holds Manor's amateur record
and it's unoficial mark. Manor
was Brownell's second home club
and he set competitive mark
for the amateurs in 1947 when
his three-under-par 81 won the
medal in the club championship
by 10 strokes.
In 1850. as a member Of Chevy
Chase and playing Manor in the
strange role of a guest, Bobby
turned in one of the great rounds
OF his career, a Seven-under par
63. That round was not in COM
petition but all puts were holed,
including several 60-footers.
OF course the golfer whose
name is synonymous with the
club is Harry G. Pitt, who was
dubbed the Manor Moose" in
the days when he was one of the
all-time amateur golf greats of
the area. No longer a serious
golfer, Papa Pitt is the Golf
Committee chairman. Few fel-
lows who ever touched a golf
club had more friends than Pitt,
who was a good winner and, on
those seldom occasions, a good
loser.
Eight Straight IS.
Harry does not hold any of
Manor's ofacial marks but he
once shot a 64. with IL pars and
six brides. which he recalls as
probably the finest round of his
life. On the old woods nine he
once started by losing control
Of his pet hook and picking UP
on the first hole. He then ratified
OF eight consecutive IS, includ-
ing an eagle on the 9th hole.
Harry was saying yesterday that

nent that day in q friendly

straight IS.

called for charging, and Coach
Bud Millikan of the Terps must
have set a new indoor high Jump
record by leaping at least 10 feet
of the bench.
Shue knew it was his fifth
foul and he picked himself up
and walked to the bench, but
the scorekeepers did not sound
the horn and Millikan gestured
for him to get back into the
game. That brought Coach Ben
Carnevale of Navy onto the CEN
ter of the court, waving to the
officials that Shue was out.
Maryland got the ball back
and was setting up shot for
the potential tying basket when
Tom Young fumbled pass and
Navy recovered. The Middies
drove down court and Tom Wells
was fouled. He made both free
throws to put the game beyond
the Terps' reach.
Navy led, 15-11, at the end
of the first quarter, but then
scored the next IA points of the
game. The Middies were play
ing good defensive basketball,
concentrating on Shue, and the
other Maryland players were re-
luctant to shoot. Millikan kept
changing combinations, sending
his taller players into the game
to combat Don Lange, the Mid
dies rebound artist, but none
of them, clicked.
Maryland quickly narrowed
the margin to 34-26 with some
fine shooting by Shue, but Navy
posted two qulckies by Larry
Wigley and Lange and Maryland
was IL points behind again. 1t
was 44-31 at the end Of the third
quarter.
Shue's hot hand gradually
pulled the Terps closer, and after
Navy led. 47-4O, the Terps scored
seven straight points to tie it up,
five of them by Shue and two on
a set shot by George Manis. Don
Moran was the only Maryland
player besides Shue to make
more than one field goal.
New One Year Record.
Shue's performance gave him
the Maryland one-year scoring
record with AIS points in 20
games. The old record of Ala
in ~ games , was set by Lee
Brawley.
Lange, with six field goals
on either hook shots or tap-ins
and seven out of seven from the
foul line, again led the Middies
with 10 points, six more thar

points and Clune 386.
