Almost all the houses along
the tree-Shaded streets are

overflow from the gardens
and hide white picket fences.
There was little automobile

Cape Cod is a 70-mile SAN

Some Of their descendants

Cape Cod now is at the
height of it's summer season,
and the year-round popula-
ton of 10000 is far outnum-
bered by the estimated 200,-
900 tourists.
The tourists come here for
much the same reasons as

water temperature ranges

Mincher's Promise Rises
With Sharp Climb at Plate
Rockies BIust
Fails to Break
Grip of Poppos
By BURTON HAWKINS
Star Stan Writer

Don Mincher's introduction
to the majors was uneventful.
When he went hitless for a
couple of games there was
skepticism in some quarters
about his chances, but the
Senators freshman first base
man is giving hints of good hit
ting over the long haul.
Mincher'S slow start has been
supplanted by steady progress
which shows a 1903 batting
average in his last six games.
He has collected four hits in his
last six chances, including a
solo homer over the rightfield
fence off Milt Pappas in last
nights 3-2 loss to the Orioles
before 8.459.
! The 2l-year-old Mincher
could be excused for nervous
ness on opening day. The left
handed youngSter was gazing
on more people than he had
ever seen at one time. His only
previous visit to Griffith Sta
dium was with his high school
graduating class from Hunts
vile. Ala. This time President
Eisenhower. Vice President
Nixon and other notables
eagerly were cycling the Sena-
tors recruit.
Spurt Doubles Average
Don accomplished no mir
acleS and blushed a bit when
he dropped a foul fly. He was
the victim of a fine catch by
Marty Keough, depriving him
of at least a double, but after
four games he was .125 hitter.
Since then he has doubled
that mark to $50, and he's
giving indications that his av-
erage Will continue to rise.
The Senators stirred up only
five hits off Pappas, who beat
them for the sixth time in two
years without a loss and Min
cher got two of them.
The Orioles likewise got five
hits off Russ Kemmerer and
Pedro Ramos. but Russ yielded
a three-run homer to Jim Gen.
tile in the first inning and that,
it developed, was the ball game.
Gentle still is on trial with
the Orioles. If they keep him
80 days they must send S25, 900
and two players to st. Paul. If
they don't keep him it won't
be Kemmerer's fault. for
against Russ he's a .667 hitter
with four hits in six tries.
500 Against Senators
Gentle leads the Orioles
with seven runs batted in. All
have been at Kemmerer's ex-
pense. Jim batted across four
runs against Russ at Baltimore
with a pair of singles. All Of
his hits have been against
Washington. He's a 500 hitter
against the Senators.
Last night Kemmerer started
out by walking Marv Breeding,
who was forced by AL Pilarcik.

SAN FRANCISCO. April 2t
(AP.-Boxer Leroy Sayles re.
gained consciousness this morn.
ing, almost eight hours after
being knocked out and suffering
a brain conclusion in his second
professional fight.
The 22-year-old Berkeley
middleweight was .doored last
night in the second round of a
preliminary to the Henry Hank
Roy Calhoun middleweight bout
here. won by Hank on a knock
out.
DR.. Don Lastretto. a State
Athletic Commission doctor
said Sayles sis in fair condition
and ought to be all right in
time"
He said the conclusion ap-
parently required no surgery
but may have done permanent
damage. Therefore, Dr.. Las
tretto said. he would recon-
mend revoking the young Negro
fighters license permanently as
q precaution.
SayleS was floored by a stiff
right uppercut to the chin by
Floyd Ryan from Richmond,
Calf, also making his second
pro start.
After several minutes, Sayles
handlers got the fighter to his
feet, but he collapsed again and
was carried from the ring on a
stretcher. He was admitted to
st. Luke's Hospital in critical
condition. About 5 am, Sayles
regained consciousness and la
ter responded to questions by
DR.. Lastretto.
In his first pro fight, Sayles
knocked out Paul Machen in
the first round.
Hank won the feature by
stopping Calhoun after two
minutes and so seconds of the
second round. He put Calhoun
on the canvas with a left hook
in the first round. and battered
him down again with a barrage
of blows in the second.
