Frank Sedgman and Ken Nc
Gregor, who signed a 100000
contract this week for a profess
sional tennis tour of America and
other countries, may find them-
selves persona non grata in their
native Australia.
Two leading Australian amateur
tennis officials said today their
association is unlikely to help the

little continent.
The two AuSSie Davis Cup stars
left sydney this morning by air
for Los Angeles, where they are
joining the Jack Kramer troupe.
They will make their pro debut in
Los Angeles next Tuesday.
The president of the Lawn Ten

Emphasizing he was not speak

Beats StrangIehold

BY the Assoeioted Press

ARCADIA, Calf. Jan. 3-A
Clean, Calumet Farms flashy
fllly, today scored a hard-earned
victory in the $4,000 Malibu
Sequel StAkes before $1,000 at
Santa Anita. winning the seven
furlong dash in photo finish over
Stranglehold and Big Noise.
An odds-on favorite, A Clean,
ridden by Eddie Arcaro, kept her
hackers in suspense until the final
strides when she forged under the
wire a head winner over Strangle-
hold, with Big Noise, owned by
the bandleader. Harry James, and
Betty Cradle, screen star, right up
there, too. ......
Big Noise. the show horse and
pacesetter, hung on gamely
through the stretch and appeared
a likely winner until few strides
from the wire when A Clean and
Stranglehold edged past.
victory Nets S15,SOO.
A Clean raced the seven fur
longs in 1:224s. She earned $15,-
800 for Calumet Farm.
"A Clean paid $3.50, $2.40 and
$3.50. Stranglehold paid $4.60.
$3.50; Big Noise, $500.
Except for running wide COM
ing of the turn, the erratic Big
Noise probably would have won.
The James colt dashed to the
front on the back stretch and
opened a five-length lead round
ing the bend. But Big Noise lost
most of the lead in veering wide
off the turn.
Once Ray York had straight
ened Big Noise in the run for the
wire, the colt raced gamely to
figure in the three-horse photo
finish.
A Clean Rated Far Back.
A Clean broke on her toes but
Arcaro chose to drop her far back
in the early running. She adj
vanced slowly, even though Ar
caro- had her under a drive for
the last three furlongs. Thanks
to her courage and Arcaro's hard
riding, she made it, although as
Arcaro put it. '"That's lot closer
than I like to have 'em."
In the absence of Mr.. and Mrs.
Gene Markey, owners of Calumet
Farm, Trainers Ben and Jimmy
Jones accepted trophy in token
of A Cleans victory. AS for
Stranglehold. the Mr.. and Mrs.
N. G. Phillips charger rolled up
from last in the field of eight
4-year-olds to nearly get the nod.

NEW YORK, Jan. 3.-The two
most talkative catchers in the
American League are New York's
Yogi Berra and Cleveland's Joe
Upton, Umpire Larry Napp says.
"Those two guys never let up"
Napp added. always yat-a-ta-
yat-a-ta. One time the Yanks
are playing the Athletics and Dave
Philley comes to the plate. Philley
uses an old bottle bat that Jimmy
Dykes must have used 80 years
ago. It's short and stumpy. 4.
''Yogi takes one look at the
bat and he turns to me. 'Nappie.
he says. Look at that bat. It's
a banana stalk. Is that legal?'
Right behind Philley comes
Gus Zerniai. Gus uses one of
the longest bats in the majors
about 38 or 80 inches long. Com
pared to Philley's stick, it looks
like q battleship gun.
Yogi Protests Again. i
"Yogi takes q look and screams,
Hey, Nappie, this guys using an
electric light pole. That amt
legal, is it?'
"Of course, both bats are legal"
Napp added. But that don't
stop Yogi from bringing it up all
the time. He just likes to talk.
"Now you take that Tipton," the
umpire said. Hes always sing
ing and talking, trying to upset
the batters. He asks the batters
what song they'd like to hear.
One day he's working on Ted Will
liams. His Jaws never stop. Ted
steps out of the box and says to
me: 'Nappy, pitchers never give
me any trouble, but this guy
HE steps back into the box and
Upton says to him: Ted, we're
going to throw the next one right
down the middle. Nice and fat.
Bet you hat you don't hit a
homer. Sure enough the pitch
comes down the alley, Ted steps
into it and the bat meets the ball
solid. It has to be a homer. With
out looking to see where the balls
going, Ted turns to Joe and says
You owe me a hat and then
dashes to first.
'Tipton was speechless for the
first time"
Visit Veterans Hospital.
Napp, a very capable boxing ref
cree as well as umpire, was one
of a group of sports people who
the Sunmount Veterans
Hospital at Tupper Lake last week
end. With him were Yankees Joe
Collins and Tom German, Dodger
Pitcher Billy Loes and the writer.
The trip was sponsored by the SO
Association. a fine organization Of
men and women dedicated to keep
the promise that "the wounded
shall never be forgotten"
The So Association, founded in
1945, has entered and served more
than 125 900 wounded and sick
veterans and servicemen in and
out of Army, Navy and veterans
hospitals.
Any one who doubts the value Of
sports in a troubled world should
take a trip some day to a veterans
hospital. The veterans thrive on
sports.
They tossed plenty Of questions
at the ball players. One of the
first to Collins and German was,
What is it that makes the
Yankees win the big ones con-
sistently?"
Why the Yanks Win.
Collins and German did their
best to explain but / thought
an anecdote Collins told about his
wife gives the best idea of Yankee
