A. 1948 x ye es Ee PAGE FIFTEEN THURSDAY, JULY 22, & Big League Baseball Yesterday By JACK HAND _ Joe McCarthy finally has caught up to New York Yankees, the club hic Boston Red Sox consider "the team to beat" for the American League flag. Since July 4 Marse Joe's 80x have won 16 of 20 starts in' a sizzling surge. By winning a day-night dou- bleheader Wednesday from lowly Chicago White Sox while New York and Cleveland were splitting a pair, the Red Sox moved into a third- place tie with the world champs. Only 3% games back today, Bos- ton can be in a position to challenge for the lead Saturday when Lou Boudreau's Cleveland Indians move into Fenway Park. McCarthy must have been en- couraged, too, by the relief victory of Tex Hughson, the tall Texan who has been lost to the team most of the season. Optioned to Austin, Tex, in the class B Big State league to bakz the miseries from his sore arm, Hughson was recalled during the all-star game vacation. Hughson came in to pitch the minth inning of Wednesday night's game with Chicago, picking up the verdict when the Red Sox rallied for three runs in the last of the ninth to take a 10-9 edge. They had won the afternoon half by a 3-1 score for Joe Dobson's 12th success. The Yankees and Indians traded thome-run knockouts in Wednesday's double tilt. New York ganged up on the tribe in the first of a double- header for a 7-3 decision over Bob Muncrief. Joe @iMaggio, Bill John- son, Cliff Mapes and Phil Rizzuto hcmered for the Yanks to more than make up for .a two-run clout by Boudreau in the first inning. The Yanks held an 8-4 lead going into the seventh frame of the se- cond game but they couldn't hold it. Jim Hegan delivered a grand slam homer in the eighth for the ball game, 12-8. Fhiladelphia ran into disaster at Bnibe Park where St. Louis Browns pounded out 21 hits in a lopsided 17-5 romp. Cliff Fannin coasted hcme on an 11-hitter. Washington's Walt Masterson managed to get by with a 12-hitter as the Senators dumped Detroit 6-1, Brooklyn's surge again featured the National League doings as the Brooks won a pair from Chicago, 9-3 and 7-1, clipping Boston Braves' dead to six games. Ralph Branca had little trouble winning No. 12 in the opener. The Brooks, who have won seven of eight since Burt Shotton returned as manager, were held hitless for 6!» innings by Bob McCall in the second game. They findlly broke loose for four runs in the sixth to win for Joe Hatten, Warren Spahn, shaky of late, pitch- ed steady, effective seven-hit ball as the Braves downed - Cincinnati's Ewel] Blackwell, 6-2. Blackwell struck out nine but dished up home runs balls to Earl Torgeson and Jeff Heath. Harry Brecheen turned in a bril- liant effort for St. Louis Cardinals striking out 10 New York Giants in earning his 10th victory, 8-4.

International 'League Action Once again a home run has end- | ed a brilliant hurling streak of No- wark's great rookie right-hander, Bob Porterfield. Portterfield pitched the Bears to a 5-1 victory over Syracuse Chiefs Wednesday night with Al Rubeling homering in the sixth inning for the lone Syracuse run. It snapped Porterfield's consecutive scoreless inning streak at 33.. At the start of the season Porter- field pitched 36 consecutive score- less innings before a four-bagger by Torontos Van Harrington brought the skein to a nend. Porterfield allowed the Chiefs seven hits and fanned four in gain- ing his 13th victory of the year against five losses. Montreal's league-leading Royals divided a doubleheader with Tor- onto Maple Leafs, winning the se- cond game 5-3 after losing the op- ener 4-0. Veteran Nick Strincevich check- ed the Royals on six hits in the first game while the leafs collected seven, including rookie E. Sanicki's 16th four-bagger of the season. Jack Banta scattered seven Tor- onto safeties in posting his 12th vic- tory in the nightcap. Banta walked seven but three double plays helped him out of jams.

By WILLIAM BOSS Edmonton, July 22--(CP)--When Cleveland Indians acquired a 44- year-old Leroy (Satchel) Paige to bolster a floppy pitching staff, the fillip of the summer was. given Sports Writers throughout the con- tinent. Among them Lorimer (Lethbridge Herald) Fenwick has produced columns laying the fabulous twirl- er's record on the line and in part, accounting for it. Disciplined con- trol and physical tone seem the answers. "Ome of the secrets of the ageless Negro star's success is the wonder- ful shape he is always in. He takes a hot bath, "hotter than anyone else could stand it," in the morning and right after every game. "He catches flies, fields grounders, jogs around the bases, does every- thing, in fact, to make sure that his whole body is in perfect trim, Then he gets his catcher and starts to warm his arm up slowly. "His control is so great, as a matter of fact, that he allegedly never has any trouble with catch- ers. 'I'm the easiest man in the world to catch,' he claims. 'All a catcher has to do is show me the glove and hold it there, I'll hit it. I can knock a folder of matches out of a man's fingers at 60 feet." The same Lorimer Fenwick notes Western - Canada Senior Hockey League officials meet this week and says he hopes they'll do something about League officiating. The least that could be hoped for by fans next season is a uni- formity in officiating. A represen- tative of the League President should be always on the look-out for refs who consistently favor the home club and who are erratic in their interpretations of the rules."

MYERS Newsy Info. For Anglers By The Canadian Press Most provinces report increased demands for fishing licences this summer as more Canadians and Americans seek the variety of fish lurking in the Dominion's fresh and coastal waters, a Canadian Press survey shows. Ontario officials said they had distributed 30,000 more licence forms than they sent out last year. They have opened '300 additional 'ditsribution points, bringing the total to 2,000. The Windsor area reports that pickerel and bass 'are caught in Lake St. Clair, the. Detroit River and the western end of Lake Erie. The over-all picture is "only fair" although small mouth black bass are being taken from Lake Erie and large mouth black bass from Lake St. Clair, Some pike have been caught in the International waters with large catches of Muskellunge reported off Belle Isle and Peche Island. Live Bait Best Minnows, worms and plugs are the most successful bait, but soft- shelled crabs are getting good re- sults farther east in Lake Erie. North Bay fishing is reported to be on a par with that of last year. Smaller pike and pickerel catches this month have been balanced by bass catches. Fish in the district include silver and black bass, lake and speckled trout, muskellunge, whitefish, pick- erél and great Northern pike. Anglers say the best waters are the West Bay district of Lake Nip- issing, French River and the Kip- peva District, northeast of North ay. Fishing in the Kingston district fluctuates, experts say, because shad are running heavily now. Game fish prefer the shad to baited hooks. Bass are reported to be good wets of Kingston and near Brothers Is- land. Pickerel have been caught at Hay Bay and lake trout at Lough- borough Lake. Some large bass have been taken from Cranberry The Pembroke area still draws its | Tne near Seeley's Bay. quota of anglers seeking lake trout, bass, pickerel and pike. Huge stur- geon are caught in the Ottawa River. * A Record Muskie A 1948 muskellunge record for the Kawartha Lakes, near Peterbor- ough, was set recently by George Christiansen, camp manager, who hauled in one weighing 28 pounds 12 ounces. The district also boasts good patches of small mouth black bass and pickerel. A Toronto resident landed one of the former, 22 inches long and 5 pounds 2 ounces in weight. Quebec officials report that 27,000 residents had taken out fishing licences up to June--an increase of 14,700 over the same period last year, Non-resident licences are up by 17,000.
