Yet He Has BeIted 30
By the Associated Press

BROOKLYN, Aug. 6.-Gil
Hodges poked his nose into the
Cardinals clubhouse and spied
Stan Musial getting into his
street clothes.
"Hey. Stan." the amiable
Brooklyn slugger yelled through
the noise that easily identified
the winning clubhouse, Y~ see
where you've thrown your hat
back into the ring for the home
run title"
Musial laughed out loud. He
had just walloped a pair of
three-run homers-his goth and
3Oth-to highlight the 1874 St.
Louis victory over the Dodgers.
He hexed the muscle of his left
arm and pointed to it,,
"See that muscle. CLIP" he
asked jokingly That's a home
run muscle. Right now it's
warning you big home run slug
gers that Stanislaus, the lii ole
singles hitter, is aiming for the
home run crown"
He's After Those Base Hits.
"You serious about that home
run talk?" a reporter asked Mu-
sial.
mo" he said with an empha-
tic shake of his head. None of
that free-swinging stuff for me,
In fact, I've been hitting great
deal to the opposite field lately.
I'm leaving the home run to
those big muscle men like
Hodges, Mathews, Kiner. Sauer
and Mays. I'm after those base
hits. Give me four singles to
one home run any day."
The great all-around player
reiterated his two greatest de-
sires In baseball-two more bat
ting titles and a lifetime total OF
5000 hits.
Both seem to be getting
tougher and tougher every time
think about it," Musial said.
I'm getting along in years now
and I don't have too many left.
Three more. I think maybe
four. Certainly no more"
Anxious to Tie Record.
Reminded he was only 80 and
that nobody. as yet, had detected

any signs Of slipping on his part,
Stan said earnestly:
II feel as well as ever did. I
don't think I've lost any power.
There's nothing wrong with my
eyesight and timing. But I'm not
kidding myself. I'm not getting
any younger and at this stage
each year is the equivalent of
three when you're in the twen-
ties"
Musial, a six-time batting
champion, is most anxious to tie
Hans Wagner's National League
record of eight batting titles.
Only seven players have made
5000 hits. Stan, with more than
1850 already in the batbag,
should be well past the 2,4O0
mark when the season ends.

BROOKLYN, Aug. 6.-Frus-
tration mas set in among the
Dodgers. Five games behind in
their bid to win a third straight
National League pennant, the
Brooklyn players are showing
signs of the strain.
Preacher Roe put on the latest
exhibition of pent-up emotions
yesterday. The 36-year-old left
handler threw his jacket and
glove into the stands on his way
to the showers after Stan Musial
hit a three-run homer in the
third inning as the Cardinals
won, 1874. sr
Roe got his jacket back from
fan, but Don Reed of Baby
Ion, N. Y, refused at first to give
up the glove. He was elected
from the stands, but re-admitted
when he said he wanted to give
it to Roe personally. Reed had
his 8-year-old son with him and,
after returning the glove, Roe

Of Illustration Felt by Dodgers

presented the boy with a brand
new one, complete with auto
graph
A st. Louis player, instru-
mental in the lopsided Cardinal
victory, was struck by the listless
play of the Dodgers.
What's wrong with those
guys?" he asked later in the
clubhouse. "They look like they
wish the season were over Don't
tell me they've given up? Heck,
I wish we were that close"
Not long ago in Milwaukee
Jackie Robinson threw his bat
toward the dugout and il
bounced into the box seats. 4
However, the Dodgers aren't
planning to hire a psychologist
The old st. Louis Browns tried
that and the general opinion fol.
lowing that experiment was that
a psychologist is of no value Il
a baseball team unless he car
hit, pitch or field.

Snead's Sons Recovering
From Eye Operations Here

Sammy Snead's two young sons
are doing well today after under
going successful eye operations at
Children's Hospital here Tuesday
and thus Sam will be able to
compete in next weeks play in
the rich Tam O'Shanter golf
tournament in Chicago.
Golf hasn't seemed too impor-
tant to Sam this week. His chief
concern yesterday was getting a
red truck for son Terry. That's
what he wanted after having the
bandages removed from his eyes.
He will leave Sunday for Chi
cago where he has been made
eligible for play in the Tam
O'Shanter next week. Tourna-
ment rules stipulate a player
must compete during the first
week to be able to play the Sec
ond week. But in Snead's case
the rule was waived.
Sam and his wife and children
are staying at an apartment here.

Ex-Gonzogon Never Had 1t So Good
Bill GordinerM Big Name
As Cage Coach at Spring Hill
By Bill Fuchs

Bill Gardiner, who knows what
it is to have 1t tough, never had
it so good.
The pressure OF coaching,
which forced Notre Danes
Frank Leahy into the public
relations field, never touches
Gardiner. a former Gonzaga
High athlete whose guidance has
given Spring Hill College un-
precedented prominence in bas-
ketball.
Spring Hill Is a little Jesuit
school located near Mobile, Ala,
which hitherto had gained what
beautiful campus, complete with
reputation it had through its
high-leyel curriculum and a
an 18-hole golf course and a
natural lake for boating and
swimming.

But under Gardiner, whose
chief purpose in migrating was
to place his frozen feet under
that warm Alabama sun, Spring
Hill is now regarded as an up
and-coming basketball power
Among its victims last year were
Tulane and Loyola Of New
Orleans. Among its intended
victims next season are George
town, Xavier of Cincinnati and
st. Mary's of California, all
rightly regarded in basketball
circles.
Gardeners coaching talents
aren't too well known to the
Washington public. but it hasn't
escaped those close to the field.
He has been deluged with offers
from big-time basketball schools
from New York to the Midwest.
He prefers Spring Hill, warm
peaceful place far removed from
the horrors. of q German pris-
oner of war camp where he spent
six months in World War II.

schools a coach can have a
good year or two and everything
is fine. Let him have a bad year

there is no pressure. If have a
bad year every one-alumni, fac
ulty, students-are still on my
side"

Wanda Werner Holds
Walter Reed Hopesin
AAU Feature Today
Special Dispatch TO The s.ar

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 6.--The
100-meter freestyle featured to-
days action for women in the
National AAU outdoor swim
ming and diving championships
at Broad Ripple pool. The four
day meet ends Sunday.
Wanda Werner, a 13-year-old
student at Leland Junior High
School in Bethesda. Md, carries
the chief hopes of the Walter
Reed Swimming Club in the fea-
ture as she makes her first APP
pearance here. Walter Reed is
defending team champion.
Miss Werner, a star Of the
shorter distances in the back and
butterfly stroke, helped Walter
Reed to the last indoor and out
door titles.
Heavy Schedule Today.
Other events for women today
included platform diving. 100
meter freestyle, 400-meter in
dividual medley and 2oo-meter
backStroke.
Two events-the 1,5O0-meter
freestyle for men and women
opened the meet yesterday and
records were broken in each.
Walter Reeds Tim Jecks
finished seventh behind the fast
pace set by Ford Konno Of
Honolulu and Marie Gillett
placed fourth behind Carolyn
Green of Fort Lauderdale.
Konno. the Ohio State Uni
versity speedster, was clicked in
1901, eclipsing his AAU mark
Of 1920 set last year. He holds
the American citizens record of
1926 and the Olympic record
of 1890.
Following Konno in order were
William Yorzyk of New Haven,
Conn.,; George Oneka. jr., of
Hawaii; Dave Radcliffe of San
Diego. Charles Stagman of Gin
cinnati, John Marshall of New
Haven and Jecko.
Miss Green Loses Count.
Miss Green beat by IL seconds
her American and AAU marks
by finishing in 21:08.5. Miss
Gillett was fourth best with
22:12.6. Carol TAFT of Santa
Clara was second and Helen
Hughes of Lafayette, Ind, third.
Miss Green probably would
have finished even quicker, but
she lost count of her turns,
didn't hear the finish gun and
swan an extra so meters.
Konno was entered in the 300
meter freestyle today, but may
be beaten over that distance by
Wayne Moore of New Haven,
the defending champion, or Bill
Woolsey of Honolulu and In
diana University.

Al, in the only other American
League action.
In the National League, the
Giants held on to their Ave-
game margin over Brooklyn, al
though they lost, Ga. to Chi
cago. The Dodgers were wal
loped, 1874. by st. Louis.
The Cincinnati-Pittsburg and
Milwaukee Philadelphia games
were rained out. These were
the first postpoEements in either
league since July 7, although
several games which had been
started had to be called because
of bad weather.
Mickey Mantle led the Yankee
raid into Indian territory with
two home runs, while Joe Col
Inns hit one. Rookie Bob Grim,
with late-inning help from
Johnny Sain. posted his 14th
victory. Sain gave up the only
two Cleveland runs-a one-on
homer by Larry Dolby in the
eighth.
The White Sox managed only
five hits off five Boston pitchers
but they got them when they
counted most. Phil Cavaretta's
two-run double in the first was
the big blow as Bob Keegan won
his 14th game.
Musial ON Rampage.
Stan Musial, who always has
looked on Ebbets Field as a real
home away from home, drove in
seven runs in the Cardinals one
sided victory in Brooklyn. Musial
hit two home runs, his 29th and
30th. each with two aboard, and
drove in another run with sac
rifice fly. He had collected four
hits the night before.
STAINS first blast drove
Preacher Roe, an old st. Louis
nemesis. to the showers. Rookie
Brooks Lawrence won his ninth
game since joining the Cardinals
in late June and had a perfect
day at bat with three singles
Back-to-back home runs in
the eighth inning by Ernie Banks
and Eddie Miksis doomed the
Cubs to victory over the Giants.
Frank Baumholtz also hit into
the seats for the Chicagoans.
Lefty Jim Davis, last of three
Cub pitchers. stopped the Giants
after they had put two on with
none out in the. eighth. Then he
got Monte Irwin to rap into a
game-ending double play in the
ninth.
