YIELDS SCRATCH SINGLE
Lorys sOne-Hitter
Adds to Mystery
By the Associated Press =

Little more than a week ago
Frank Larry was the biggest
mystery of spring training for
the Detroit Tigers. Relied. on as
one of the aces of the staff. he
had a 1905 earned run average
and had been tagged for II
runs in one stretch Of seven ex-
hibition innings.
Larry was still a mystery yes
terday, but it was the Chicago
White Sox, not the Tigers, who
were looking for the answer.
The sturdy righthander pitched
the first one-hitter of his career
for a TO breeze in his first
regular-season appearance.
Larry came within an inch Of
pitching a no-hitter. The only
hit by the White Sox was a
scratch single-off ShortStop
Chico Fernandez glove - by
Jim Lands in the fifth inning.
The official scorer called it a
hit Immediately, and Larry had
no complaints.
Twins Win Again
In the only other games
scheduled d in the American
League, both at night, the Min
nesota Twins remained unbeat-
en- with 80 decision over the
winlesS Baltimore Orioles, and
the Senators won their first,
spilling the Cleveland Indians,
81.
Larry, just turned 80, now
has a 95-84 record after the
first decision of his eighth sea-
son with the Tigers. He walked
only two retiring 13 in a
row after Lands hit before
giving up a pass to pinch-hitter
Earl TorgeSon in the ninth
and struck out five with his
assortment of curves, sliders
and fastballs. He faced 80 men,
three over the minimum, while
squaring his career. record
against the White Sox at 1912.

his Kentucky Derby mettle to-
day in Laurel's $29,50O Chesa-
peake Stakes, which drew a
field Of eleven 3-year-olds for
its 40th running.
Despite a threat of rain, a
crowd of $4,000 was expected
to make Ring Around a 81 ia
vorite in the traditional Mary
land mile-and-an-eighth STEP

weeks away. Jockey Herberto
Hinojosa was riding Ring
Around in the toughest assign
ment of his three-year career.
Ring Around had won his
last two races but his most
impressive was his last at Aque-
duct. Running strongly through
the stretch in the style of his
famed sire, Ring Around beat
a fair allowance field with his
late rush at a mile.

a triple to deep center to open
the seventh inning and was
stranded on third base as Daley
caught Kirkland's foul pop.
Woodie Held lined to Second

The Indians came up with
their two runs in the eighth on
