Hubbell Back Amazon Queen at Fair
In Old Form
King Carl Wins In
Year's First Start
By GEORGE KIRKSEY
United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK. May 15.—There‘s
rejoicing today in Carthage, Mo.,
Meeker, Okla., and Fort Worth,
Tex.—the three towns which claim
Carl. Owen Hubbell- because the
"meal ticket" has survived with
flying colors his first test along
the comeback trail
Hubbell, born in Carthage, rais-
ed in Meeker and now a resident
AfFort Worth, won his first start
of the season yesterday, by defeat-1
ing the Phillies 2-1, in 10 innings.
It took Hubbell to give the
Giants their first victory of the
season over Doc Prothro’s Phil-
lies. They nicked him for 11
hits, but many of them were
scratchy. He paced himself well,
and when in trouble was at his
best. In the 10th, after Arno-
vich had walked and Hay singled,
Hubbell stopped the threat by
forcing Whitney and Sc harein to
fly out. In the 10th,' with the
score tied 1-1, Ken O'Dea batted
for Hubbell and hit the game-
winning homer.
Bob Feller gave a courageous
exhibition in hurting Cleveland to
a 9-4 victory over the White Six.
His mother, who came to Cleve-
land to see her son pitch on
Mother’s Day, was struck by a
foul from Marv Owen s hat in the
third inning. The blow opened a
gash above her right eye, and she
had to be taken to a hospital
to have it stitched Her son re-
mained on the mound, and won
his sixth victory. He fanned six
