Trent Titlists Land Six
Berths on All-Star Nine
By HOWARD GREEN
From the dozen teams competing in the West Texas sandlot
baseball tournament, with assistance from the umpire, we’ve se-
lected an all-star team.
It’s like this:
1. B.—Weaver, Anson.
2. B.—Barlett, Anson.
3. B.—H. Jones, Trent.
S. S.—Varner, Denton. X
L. F.—Kegans, Trent.
C. F.—Strawn, Trent
R. F.—Ford, Anson.
C.—Hutcheson, Trent.
C.—Patton, Banner.
P.—L. Jones, Trent.
P.—W. Jones, Trent.
P.—McChesney, Banner.
Utility—Thurman, Anson.
***
Doubtlessly some of the top hands of the tournament have
not been mentioned. Perhaps they played on teams eliminated
quickly or were not at peak form.
The tournament, we believe, was successful from almost every
viewpoint The sponsors didn’t lose as much money as expected,
the umpiring was first class and the competing teams apparently
fully satisfied.
We’ve never seen two teams put any more into a game than
did. Anson and Trent in the finals.-----------.----------------------—
The Trent club was determined from the first game to win the
tournament and it certainly wasn’t lacking in what baseballers
term hustle.
Hollis Jones on third base, in particular, gave a commendable
performance.________.______:___________2___________________
Our heart-felt admiration goes out to any man or group of
men who play baseball with but one purpose and that to play it
just a little harder than the next fellow.
Speaking of umpires, the job Elton Hailey did on the bases
was the best we’ve seen in any company this year. He was so good
he didn’t get an argument By the time the tournament was over,
he had everybody concerned convinced that he was right.
Kenneth Tate has possibilities on balls and strikes. Tate is
big and emphatic and, although he did muff a few, nobody serious-
ly questioned him.
Ted Hardin, who is graduating from Abilene high school this
summer, tells us he has about decided to enter Abilene Christian
college this fall.
Hardin had been reported en route to Texas A&M, but indi-
cates he’ll stay at home and play football and run track for the
Wildcats.

rooms for missionaries, a wash-
room and a kitchen. Frank Hor-
nung, missionary, has finished a
residence financed by his earnings.
Hornung quit a $300-a-month job
to become a missionary with the
mission.
The Rev. Holden reported the
mission force has been recruited
from natives who were converted
by the mission. Among them are
Ignacio Guevara, formal national
policeman; who is at Bogota, the
capitol; Leonidas Turmeque, an-

The Mission of the Andes, found

home is at 1025 Palm, has expand-

Started a few years ago by the
Rev. Holden who, without any
ecclesiastical aid, sold his posses-

to suffer if need be, not afraid to
get their hands dirty, and not
afraid of work," the Rev. Helden

"We find it isn’t enough just

Associated Press Sports Writer
Baseball’s top box office draw
is Ted Williams of the pennant-
| bound Boston Red Sox—the logi-
cal heir to Babe Ruth’s throne.
Whether the willowy ex-Marine
hits three home runs in one game,
as he did yesterday against Cleve-
land. or strikes out with the bases
loaded before a Yankee stadium
sellout, he reeks with that vague
substance called "color."
Williams’ performance yester-
day should earn him several points
on next year’s contract. His one-
man show enabled Boston to
stretch its lead to 11 full games
by sweeping a doubleheader from
Cleveland, 11-10 and 6-4. Teddy
drove in eight runs with three
homers and a single in the opener
•nd doubled down the right field
line in the second tilt despite Man-
ager Lou Boudereau’s novel de-
fense.
As a result of the big day, Wil-
liams’ batting average soared to
353. only four points behind the
, leader, Mickey Vernon of Wash-
ington Twenty six home runs, 82
runs batted in and 89 runs scored,
are other accomplishments of the
lank Californian.
While Williams was joining the
long list of players who have hit
three homers in s game. Boudreau
was tying a record, held by 20
players, by hitting four doubles
in one contest. The Cleveland pi-
lot also smashed a home run lor
the losing cause.
Williams’ big afternoon, with
the help of some relief work by
Tex Hughson and Dave Ferriss,
enabled Boston to stretch its lead
over New York to 11 games, for
the Yanks bowed twice to De-
troit. Alter Hal Newhouser had
hung up hia 17th victory on a
three-hit. 5-1 score. Stubby Over-
mire earned his first decision of
the season, 6-3, before a Yankee
stadium throng of 61,940 fans.
St Louis applied the tightener
to the National chase by dumping
Brooklyn twice. The double lots
1
reduced the Dodgers’ margin to
2 1-2 games.
In addition to dropping two. the
Brooks lost the services of see-
and baaeman Eddie Stanky who
was carried from the field after
a collision with Slaughter in the
opener.
Chicago also closed in on the
Durocher gang, knocking over New
York 7-4. Boston clung to a first
division berth by one percentage
point when it divided a pair with
Pittsburgh. After Warren Spahn
had curved his way to a 4-1 nod
over Fritz Ostermueller, Rip Sew-
ell got the Bucs an even break
with a seven-hit effort, 5-2.
Johnny Vander Meer copped his
fourth straight and his first shut-
out of the year against the Phil-
lies, 3-0, but Ken Raffensberger
squared matters by silencing the
Cincinnati Reds with six hits in
the 8-2 afterpiece.
In the American league. Wash,
ington climbed over the .500 mark
by trouncing St. Louis in both
ends of a twin bill. 5-3 behind Sid
Hudson and 4-2 on an eight-hit
job by Rae Scarborough.
Connie Mack’s Athletics sank a
little deeper into the cellar by
splitting two with Chicago, wind-
ing up the day 33 full games be-
hind Boston. Russ Christopher got
credit for the opener, 5-4, but Bob
Savage dropped the second to re-
liefer Al Hollingsworth, 4-3.
