BLEW UP IN 7TH He had Cincinnati Reds eating out of his hand last night until the seventh inning when he blew sky high and was tagged for seven run, as the Cardinals suffered an 8-3 Ken Raffensberger pitched for the Reds and beat Mizell for the second time this season. He opposed Mizell in the rookie's Major League debut when a two- run triple by Joe Adcock gave Cin- cinnati a 2-1 victory. Next time out Mizell had Chicago Beaten. 3-2 going into the eighth inning when he yielded four runs for a 6-3 loss, He finally won in his third start 3-2 with a four-hitter over Phila- delphia that showed some of the stuff that made him a minor league star a year ago. OTHER TEAMS IDLE But last night he lapsed into his earlier weakness and the Reds used the win to take. over third place from Chicago Cubs whose game with Pittsburgh was postponed be- oause of cold weather. Other. Na- tional League clubs were idle. Cleveland Indians took over first place in the American League from Boston Red Sox without lifting a bat. The Indians, idle because of rain, moved a half-game ahead as the Red Sox dropped a 7-4 decision to New York Yankees. The Indians had been scheduled to play St. Louis Browns. Veterans Johnny Sain and Bobby Hogue, former Boston Brave stable mates, teamed up to stop the Red Sox. Sain drove in three runs on | a homer and double. He was struck sics, I ington. on the right kneecap by a liner from the bat of Billy Goodman in the second inning and was forced to retire after the seventh when his knee stiffened. The victory ended a three-game New York los- ing strak. Chicago White. Sox won the long- est game of the season as they de- | |feated Detroit Tigers 8-5 in 16], innings at Detroit.

RALLY- FAILS Detroit in its half of the 168th loaded the bases with one out but Bill Kennedy ended the four-hour 27-minute battle by striking out George Lerchen and getting Johnny Groth to ground ouf\ Harry Dorish, who took over in the eighth for Chicago, was the winner and Hal White, the sixth of seven Tiger pitchers to see duty, the loser. Little Bobby Shantz pitched Phil- adelphia Athletics to a 9-3 victory over Washington Senators in the only American League night game. Shantz permitted six hits in gain- ing his fourth triumph.

If he did, that would just about mean the end of the Ghosts as a battling contender. They might still enter a club, but whether or not it could stand the gaff of the local legaue is another thing. It has also been sald that Ham- ilton Panthers would like to join the = Oshawa-Cobourg-Peterbor- ough~Orillia-Toronto set-up.

Athletic Commission Sees IBC As Monopoly NEW YORK (AP) -- The New York State Athletic Commission yesterday called a hearing to deter- mine if the. International Boxing Club should lose its licence for acts detrimental to the best. interests of Xing. Originally slaed for May 16, the hearing was set back 45 days to late June on the I.B.C.'s plea for an indefinite postponement. Thé multi-branched I.B.C. already is in- volved 'in three anti-trust suits pending in district courts. Chairman Bob Christenberry said in a letter to the I.B.C. that the hearing would consider charges that the I.B.C. dominates and con- trols champions and leading box ers, important New York arena, radio and television rights and has alliances with other promoters con- trary to the best interests of box- ing. 4 s question of just who is rynning a juvenile baseball club here in Osh- awa, the cry from the Legion that they have enough men for just one team, seems .a little thin.

(CP)--The amazing feat of striking out 21 men in a seven-inning baseball game was performed yésterday by Bobby 'Rauber, lefthanded pitcher for the Webster High School team. Rauber was robbed of a perfect game in the final inning as Webster defeated Fairport High School 2-1.

Altliough it hasn't been an- nounced yet, the word is out that this country's effort to obtain 30,000 pounds by public subscrip- cessful--so much so that the to 50,000 pounds. And now that total's been left behind. "The résponse has been truly amazing," says Crump, who com- bines a publishing business with the job of looking after tempera- mental track ahd field athletes. "It proves there is greater interest in athletics than ever before." Britain put up a poor show in the 1948 Olympics, partly because of such obvious reasons as the war, but things look brighter this time. The all-round standard fis creeping up, there are proved performers in many track events-- "Britain never had so many good milers"'--and Crump thinks he may have one or two surprises up his sleeve, "As 'far as standard is con- cerned, we'll have the best team we've ever had." The track and field team will be chosen after an Amateur Athletic Association meet June 20-21, Selec- tion will be by a committee advised by Crump and will be based, not on any particular per- formance, but on the season as a whole. The entry in athletics will total between 65 and 70, including 15 women. BRITAIN'S BEST Among events in which British hopes are highest,are the women's high jump, with Mrs. Sheila Alex- ander Lerwill and Mrs. Dorothy Tyler, the 1,500 metres or "metric mile" with speed artists such as Roger, Bannister and Bill Nanke- ville, and the marathon. This event will bring out one of Crump's '"'dark" entries, an unher- alded: Essex optician named Jim Peters who in his first attempt covered the 26 miles 385 yards in 2.20:8 seconds--the - fastest time any Briton has ever accomplished. Another discovery is' a Scots doctor, E. C. K. Douglas, whis- pered as a possible winner in the hammer-throw. Crump, a track and field official 27 years, will venture just two predictions on the July 19-Aug. 3 Olympics--t h at Czechoslovakia's "running machine" Emil Zatopek will win the 10,000 metres and that the discus event will go to Russia's Nina Dumbadse, a six-foot, 3%- inch amazon from Kiev who, Crump says, can throw a man farther than most girls can throw a discus.- bo Walter Briggs Estate Valued at $10,000,000 DETROIT (AP)--The late Walter | 0.
