Jack Dempsey and Gene
Tunney proved good tourist at
fractions in Washington today
as they came to town to give
Senator Kefauver, Democrat of
Tennessee, their approval of
the Senator's proposal to set
up a Federal boxing commits
Sioner.
High school students, female
Senate office workers and old
time fight fans just about filled
the marble paneled C ucus
room of the Old Senate Office
Building as the two ex-heavy-
weight champions testified.
Their crowd was much
greater than those drawn dur
ing two previous days of testi-
mony by such other prominent
fight figures as Rocky Mar
ciano, Joe Louis, Tommy
Loughran and Gene FVllmer.
h. Similar Script
However, the script was
pretty much the same. Both
said, as had all those who had
preceded them, that they
thought that boxing was in
need of a Federal commissioner
with power to license boxers,
managers, promoters and 9TH
ers connected with the sport.

brew on first base.
The SO year old Martin
played under Lavagetto at Oak
land in the Pacific Coast League
in 1948 and 1949. He Joined
the Yankees in 1850 and ap-
peared in five World Series.
In 1853 Martin tied a series
record with IL hits, including
two home runs.
Martin Well Travelled
Martin, who has a lifetime
batting average of .258, has
played with Cleveland, Detroit
and Cincinnati since the Yam
KEGS peddled him to Kansas
City in 1857.
Tuttle, 81, hit 1862 in 25
games with Kansas City this
year. Lavagetto said he was
"tickled to have a fine defensive
outfielder like Tuttle."
The 26-year-old Bertoia bat
ted PIP in 35 games with the
Twins this season. Giel, a one
time University of Minnesota
football star, had a 10 record
with Minnesota this year. The

used as a relief pitcher in IL
games.

AveriII's Muff Recalls Owen

Shades of Mickey Owen"
This was the remark that
floated around Griffith Sta
dium in the wake of last nights
hectic, unbelievable victory by
the Senators over the Angels.
Billy Klaus had struck out
to end the game-but wait
minute! The ball went through
Catcher Earl Averill and Klaus
was on first base, setting up a
two-run double by Pinch-hitter
Gene Woodling for a 80 VIC
tory.
And so it was on October 5,
1941, in Brooklyn. This was
the fourth game of the World
Series with the Dodgers
threatening to even it up at
two games apiece. They led
the Yankees, 4-3, with two out
in the ninth. Hugh Casey was
the pitcher, Tommy Heinrich
the batter and Owen the
catcher.
Just like Klaus last night,
Heinrich swung and missed for
a third strike. Just like Aver
i'll, Owen let the ball get away.
And just like the Senators,
the Yankees cashed in, explod-
ing for four runs and a IA
victory. They wrapped up the
series in the next game.
And perhaps Ryne Duren,
the victimized pitcher in last
nights drama, feels just like
Casey did then. The relief spe-
cialist. whose life later ended in.
tragedy, had this to say:
1--WE lost ball games in many
ways, but this is the first time
lost one by striking a man
out"
OF course. losing a game be-
cause of a missed third strike
is nothing new to Duren.

unSavory situation in which
professional boxing finds itself

he said, "but the State COM
missions won't cooperate with
each other"
RapS Return-BOut Clauses
Tunney also objected to
monopoliStic practices in box
ing such as the current return
bout clauses in championship
fights. "Ingemar Johansson
should never have been allowed
to fight that third fight with
Floyd Patterson" the ex-cham-
pion declared.

DETROIT, June 2 (AP).-
The Skidding Minnesota Twins

and acquired Infielder Billy
Martin from Milwaukee and
Outfielder Bill Tuttle from

The Twins, who slipped from

Bill Console and an undisclosed
amount of cash to Milwaukee

scrappy veteran who achieved
World Series fame with the
New York Yankees.
That was one of two deals
by the Twins.
In the other, Minnesota sent
Reno Bertoia and Re-
