Only The Mother
In Family OF
Anglers Is Left

ANCHORAGE, Alaska R-Once
there were five in the fishing Smith
family.
Then in the early 193Os Mrs.
Mary smiths husband drowned at
the family fishing site near lyon
elk, 60 miles west of Anchorage. His
body never was recovered.
The widow, with three sons to
rear, continued to go annually to
the fishing grounds, experimenting
operations during the season until
the boys were able to take over.
Three years ago one of the sons,
Roland, drowned at the same spot
his father had persisted.
Last year, another son, Byrne,
drowned on a hunting trip on the
Olympic Peninsula in the state Of
Washington.
Gerard, 26, the last of the sons,
carried on. Monday, his dory, its
bow stove in like it had struck a
barge or scow, was found at the
spot where father and brother had
died. His body has not been re-
covered.
Now Mrs. Smith, almost totally
blind, alone remains.

Trophy Race

With the first five Of eleven to-
tai events completed, VX-1 lead,
all other Key West units in total
points earned in the Admiral's Tro.
phyy sports competition.
Fleet Sonar School is second.
The eleven events being held this
year include the following: basket.
ball, boxing, bowling, golf, tennis,
softball, swimming, rifle, pistol,
volley ball, and table tennis.
Teams represented in this yeyar's
events are VX-1, FSS, FAWTU,
xii, NAVSTA, Hospital, Marines,
MAS, HS-1, SADD, NOU, AUW,
FIG.
What some of the units seem to
fail to realize is that merely en-
tering q team in the event gives
them a certain number of points.
And the activity that finally wins
the total 11-event competition isn't
necessarily going to be the one
with the most first place titles. In
stead it will be the one that en-
tered the most events and at least
placed in a respectable position.
More teams will mean more
competition. II is hoped that all
activities will fight in all events to
win the cup.

'Cripples' Qualify In PEA Golf,
Sam Is Up Tree For Trick Shot
% Players
Break II In
St. Paul We'd.

ST. PAUL Up - Sam Snead,
maneuvering with a sharp list to
Starboard and a grouchy look that
was the natural result of a stiff
neck, had to climb a tree on the
18th hole to make a reasonably
good score in the first qualifying
round of the Seth PGA cham
pionship.

from painful kidney ailment that
has forced him to drop out of sew

over the barren, I'm hardened
Keller course to turn the opening
round of the nations, toughest test
of professional golf into a race
against par for the GA available
places in the match play bracket.
That was the story as 135 of
Americas leading pro golfers
headed into today's qualifying
second round of the PGA tourna-
ment with the prospect that a &c.
hole total of 146 or better would
be needed to get into the show
down stage of match play, start
ing tomorrow.
Snead's "shot" from a post oak
tree was the high spot of the OPEN
ing round in which the pros took
Keller's par of 36-35-71 to pieces,
just as had been predicted.
The West Virginia walloper, suf-
fering from recurrence of the
stiffness in his neck that plagued
him all through the Open champi-
onship, almost pulled out of the
tournament. But he decided to give
it try and until he hit the 225-
yard 18th, Snead was doing very
well.
There his tee shot drifted and
the ball lodged in the fork of a
tree, some Is feet above the
ground. Sammy, stiff neck and all,
had to 60 up there after it. He
knocked it out and got a five on
the par three hole for a creditable
score of $685..

ment begins tomorrow when Ga

Cubs Rush Tops
|Hurler's In Batting

NEW YORK IN - National
League pitchers are in no great
hurry to throw to Bob Rush of the
Chicago Cubs this season.
Rush, husky highlander, is the
top batter among major league
pitchers with a $40 average Asso-
ciated Press figures show.
Bob has produced II hits, includ-
ing three doubles, in 46 times at
bat. He had one of four hits the
Cubs were able to tap Sal Maglie
OF the Giants for yesterday in their
2-1 losing effort.
In the American League, rookie
Tom Brewer of the Boston Red
Sox has the highest percentage,
.297 on II hits in 81 trips. He has a
double and a triple and has driven
in five runs.
In six previous seasons in the
National League, Rush was able
to compile a lifetime batting aver
age of only 1853 and finished with
Ill mark last year. Rush has
one big league home run to his
credit.
Johnny PodreS, who is expected
to rejoin the Brooklyn Dodgers to-
day after recovering from an ap-
pendectomy, and Don Newcombe,
another Dodger pitcher, are the
only others with 300 batting
marks. Podres is at .313 with 10
hits in 81 at bats and Newcombe
is $40 with nine Safeties in q
trips.
Behind Brewer in the American
League come Bob Feler of Cleve-

Black Knights

Battles Here

The Black Knights of Airship
Development Squadron Eleven
added three more wins to their
score when they recently defeated
the Fleet Training Group, VX-1
and MAS softball teams respective
ly.
The final score, of a slapstick
comedy game against the Fleet
Training Group was lopsided 49,
6. After watch the antics of both
teams many spectators were re-
minded of the Buster Keaton pie
throwing days. Mike Healy pitched
for the Knights while AL Lopez
caught.
The second contest, against the
VII teams, saw both sides play
ing good ball giving the spectators
very tight ball game. The only
error in the seven innings of play
was awarded VX-1 when Shorty
Roberts of the Knights hunted. The
first baseman moved back off the
bag to field it while the pitcher,
picking it up ran over to tag Rob-
erts and dropped the ball. The
winning "pitcher-catcher" combin-
alton was Chuck Herbert and AL
Lopez. The final score was = S.
In the last game the Knights al
most saw defeat and until the sew
enth inning, when they picked up
6 runs, the MAS team was leading
Al. The bottom half of the seventh
saw MAS pick up two runs making
the final score 7 = 6 for the knights.
Mike Healy took the honors for
winning pitcher while AL Lopez
handled catcher'S position.

until rain interviewed. The same
two teams played 4 II inning tie
Tuesday night.
Only five Milwaukee batters got
on base against Robin Roberts and
the only run off the Pills ace was
Eddie Mathews 22nd home run,
hit with two out and the bases
empty in the ninth.
Pitchers wore out the grass be-
tween the bullpens and the mound
in Busch Stadium during the
Cards-Pirates' 81 hit duel. st. Louis
used eight, equaling the National
League record. Pittsburgh used
five hurlerS.
The Athletics victory over De-
troit broke a 10-game losing streak.
Sonny Dixon tanned the Tigers and
Joe DeMaestri, Lou Limmer and
Jim Finegan hit home runs for
the winners.
Washington wasted an early lead
against Baltimore, then won in the
ninth when an easy roller dribbled
through Jim Brideweser's legs
with the bases loaded and one out.
The loss was another heartbreaker
for Don Larsen, who now has lost
a dozen games.

Moore Skeptical About Eddie
Stanky's 'Sugary' Apology

MILWAUKEE, R-There seemed
to be some doubt in the mind OF
Philadelphia Phillies' manag-
er Terry Moore last night about
the sincerity of the sugar-and-
cream apology made the other day
by manager Eddie Stanky of the
st. Louis Cardinals.
''He said the same thing in 1852,
right after he got the job, but the
reform didn't last long," said
Moore, who was involved in the
fracas last Sunday at Busch Sta
dunn in st. Louis. Moore, a Car
dinal coach in so, was released a
short time later by Stanky and the
two haven't been exactly friendly
since then.
Moore chuckled when someone
mentioned that the Cardinals had
beaten the Phillies, 81, Monday
night under the direction of coach
Johnny Riddle while Stanky was
under suspension.
"Yeah," said Moore, "and things
were q lot different in the dugout
the boys tell me. Why they said
some of the Cardinals were even
smiling and I heard somebody say
it was too bad Stanky didn't get
the whole season off,"
Moore went on to explain that
under Stanky there is strict dis
cipline in the Cardinal dugout dur
ing games, with no conversation
permitted and players ordered to
look straight ahead at the field at
all times.
HE used to have a system of
fines" Moore went on. "I think
it cost you a dollar If you took
your. cap off like this" and he
put his cap on his knee. "There
were 4 lot of others, too"
