to spearhead the attack.
Bilko never has been able to
hit major league pitching, al
though year in and year out
he has looked like a conner. If
he f1ops this time, the Cards
probably will give up on him.
His two hits yesterday pulled
his batting average up to 200,
but before that he had been
able to collect only one hit in
II tries.
Joe PreSko went until the
ninth for the winners, but when
he yielded single by Jack Ditt-
mer, who had tapped him for
a home run earlier, AL Brazle
came on and retired the side.
The Braves used four pitchers.
Starter Warren SPAIN, who
whipped the Cards on opening
day, was tagged with the defeat.
He gave up four runs in four in
nings, including home run by
Del Rice. Virgil Jester. Ernie
Johnson and Lou Burdette fol-
lowed SPAIN.
Roberts Evens Score.
In the only other action in the
majors. Robin Roberts of the
Phillies evened the score with
the Giants Larry Jansen by
winning a three-hitter, 81. The
Phillies could do little with jan
sens offerings until Johnny
Wyrostek hit a home run in the
sixth. Then Granny Hammer
broke it up with a homer in the
ninth.
Jansen beat Roberts in Phila-
delphia on opening day and it
looked for a time as though he
would duplicate that effort. The
Giants had scored a run in the
first inning on a walk to Bobby
Thomson and double by Monte
Irwin. Jansen retired the first II
to face him until Wyrostek
singled in the fourth.
The Brooklyn Pittsburgh
game was called off because of
cold weather and all the other

Of Gernert's Slugging. Aren't
getting them on, that is, except
against Washington. They did
all right yesterday, humbling the
Mats twice in a Patriots Day
double-header, Az and 11-4.
Gernert flashed a warning sig
nal against the Mats Sunday
when he made Centerfielder Jim
BuSby Scurry back for a jump
catch of his line drive against the
415-foot sign at Griffith Stadium
He went hitless in four chances
Sunday. but yesterday he busted
out all over, polling two home
runs in the first game, another in
the second. plus a LOADED
double and single. The double
just missed being a fourth hon.
er, barely missing the .centerf1eld
bleacherS.
Hit 10 HOmerS Last Year.
Gernert's case is an interest
ing study for diamond strate-
gistS and statisticians. He bat
ted only .243 after being brought
up from Louisville last season
but he clouted 10 home runs
enough to lead the Red Sox. He
got 80 hits and almost half, Al
to be exact, were good for extra
bases. The rangy kid from Read
ing, Pa. drove in only 81 runs
last year, pointing up the Red
Sox weakness again, but they did
better yesterday when he knocked
in six.
At the plate, Gernert seems
to be picking up where he left of
last year. In 81 times at bat he
has made six hits-three homers,
two doubles and one single. That
inviting leftf1eld fence at Fen
way Park is a fair target for his
shots and Gernert is ready to
take advantage of it. All Bou-
dreau has to do now is figure
some way to get Dicks playmates
on base.

japanese Who Set
New Marathon Mark
Won Race on Hills
By the Assoeioted Press

BOSTON, April 21.-Japan's
Keizo Yamada-a tireless, s.
foot-2, 108-pound running ma
chine-ran the fastest marathon
ever recorded to win yesterdays
57th Boston AA race from an
international field of 157.
The 25-year-old japanese, who
earns $50 a month as a mining
company clerk, found the cool
breeze and rugged hills just his
dish as he swung rhythmically
along to a sparkling 2:18:51
effort for the 26-mile, 385-yard
course.
Never more than 300 yards be-
hind the pace-setting Karl Costa
Henderson of Sweden in the
first 19 miles, Yamada chose
"Heartbreak Hill' to glide past
the Swede, who won in 1949, and
Finland's Veikko Harvonen.
That last of three steep grades
about 6 miles from the finish
in Boston's Back Bay-spelled
defeat for the Finn and the
Swede. Yamada spurted ahead
of his two rivals and sailed
smoothly the rest of the way. A
stiff following wind favored the
runners.
First Three Break Record.
All three of them bettered the
best previously recorded mara
thon time of 2:20:42.2, made by
Jim Peters, British Olympic ace,
in London, June IA, 1852.
Second-place Karvonen-A 26-
year-old mail clerk-was timed
in 2:19:19 and third place
Henderson, 34-year-old noun
tain guide, was close behind at
2:19:36. Katsuo Nishida, Jap
anese champion, was fourth in
2:21:35, as all four smashed the
former BAA record of 2::25:39,
set by Korean Yum Box sub in
1947. Yamada clipped 6 minutes
and 48 seconds off the old mark.
LighteSt and smallest man in
the race. Yamada weighed only
81 pounds when he arrived here
two weeks ago. He packed on II
pounds before race-time.
Physicians marveled at the
excellent condition of Yamada's
feet after the gruelling test.
Sometimes I ran on the side
walks and sometimes on the
grass to save my feet" he ex-
planned. II won the race on the
hills. They were easy after the
tough hills in Japan"
John j. Kelley Runs Fifth.
An unheralded Boston Univer-
sity track star. John j. Kelley of
New London, Conn.,, uncorked a
tremendous effort in his first
marathon to grab fifth place in
2::28:19 and became the first
American runner to finish.
The rest of the top 10, in order:
Hideo Hamamura of Japan, vet
eran John A. Kelley Of West Ac-
ton, Mass, the last American
victor back in 1945; Japan's
Kurao Hiroshima, Johnny Laf-
ferty of the host BAA, and Ha-
waits Norman Tamanaha, fifth
here in 1852.
OF 158 starters, 116 finished
the gruelling race.
