Sox End Stand
With Twin Bill
Tonight at 7
Terminating their longest home
stand of the year, the Abilene Blue
Sox tackle the last place Clovis
Pioneers tonight in Blue Sox stadi-
um in a double header, first game
of which gets underway at 7 p m.
The Sox, who were idle last night
when showers postponed their sec-
ond game of a four game series
with the last place Pioneers, will
hurl Bill Meier in the first game,
and either Jack Immell or Frank
Akers in the nightcap.
Clovis is expected to pitt Willis
against the Sox in the opener and
Harold Smith in the finale.
The Sox were still riding in sev-
enth place, a half game behind
Albuquerque’s Dukes who were
idle also last night because of rain.
The Dukes play a double bill with
Pampa tonight.
The big news in the circuit was
the switch from second to first,
and first to second made by the
Amarillo Gold Sox and the Lub-
bock Hubbers. It took the Hubbers
11 innings, however, to wrest the
lead from the Gold Sox, but the
Lubbock nine turned the trick 4-3.
Lamesa, which is firmly entrench-
ed in the West Texas-New Mexico
third place slot, gave the Borger
Gassers a 8-1 pounding as Lefty
Bill Jones held the Gassers to
three hits. The game was called
at the end of 6 2-3 innings.

Big Spring and
Midland Tied For
Longhorn Lead
By UNITED PRESS
The Longhorn league pacers
were all knotted up again today,
as Big Spring pushed the attack
against Midland last night, taking
the battle 3-1.

in the flag chase, 175 percentage
points behind.
Sweetwater symied Vernon’s ef-
fort to climb the cellar steps, hand-
ing out a 14-7 pasting, and fourth-
spot Ballinger stayed a lap ahead
of Odessa in gaining the top aide
of a 13-5 victory.

No-Hitter Puls Blackwell In Top
Spot In National League Pitching
By JACK HAND
Ewell Blackwell’s no-hitter
.500 circle by a 5-2 edge over
Philadelphia, their seventh
straight win. Terry Moore's second
homer of the year helped solidify
Al Brazle’s sixth win, coming at
the expense of winless Oscar
Judd’s seventh straight loss. As
a result of their success, the Cards
now are only 4 1-2 games out of
first place.

of Rookie Catcher Gil Hodge’s
first major league homer.
The Boston Red Sox kept the
against the Boston Braves has
established the lanky Cincinnati
side arm artist as the No. 1 pitcher
in the National league.
Half way to his announced goal
of 20 wins in his second major
league season, the rangy right-
hander from San Dimas, Calif.,
has etched his name on the honor
greats.
Most of the righthanded hitters
in the league would name
“Blacky” as their toughest prob-
lem because his sinking side-
wheel delivery is on top of them
before they know what is coming.
Yet, last night. Boston’s Billy
Southworth threw a heavily left- 1
handed batting order against him
and the results were the same.
Of Blackwell’s 10 wins, the last
eight have been racked up in suc-
cession. He is the only pitcher in
the majors to have defeated every
other club in the league at least
once.
The loss dropped Boston out of
the National league lead, permitt-
ing the New York Giants to
squeeze out front by a margin of
six percentage points on their aft-
ernoon, 12-5 romp over Pittsburgh.
Those St Louis Cardinals con-
tinued their headlong dash to-
ward the first division, pulling to

agree to that—and particular-

DENVER. June 19 —(AP) —
Three of the four western teams
entered in college baseball's first
“World Series" were in town to-
day, hopeful that the skies over
“high and dry” Colorado would
stop dripping long enough for a
pre-tournament workout.
California’s Golden Bears,
champions of the Pacific Coast,
and the Oklahoma Sooners. con-
querors of the Big Six—Missouri
Valley territory, arrived yesterday
but found Denver s Western league
park too sloppy for use. A tuneup
game the Denver Pioneers planned
with a local independent team also
was rained out.
The Texas Longhorns, champ-
ions of the Southwest conference,
are due today.
California and Texas were solid
favorites to win tomorrow's first-
round games in the western phase
of the National Collegiate Athletic
association’s first national champ-
ionship baseball playoffs.
