University Daily Kansan Wednesday. May 13. 1953 10th Inning Rally Gives MU 4-3 Win By ED HOWARD Kansan Sports Writer For the second time in two days, Kansas rallied to tie the score in the last of the ninth inning, only to have Missouri take the lead and win the game in the tenth. In yesterday's extra inning affair, Bob Scoomaker drove in the winning run as the Tigers won 4-3. The Bengals all-American pitching ace, Don Boenker, gave up 8 hits as he took the victory. A doubtful call in the Kansas 10th kept the Jayhawkers from tying up the game. With two out, Harold Patterson singled to left field. John Brose then pitched for his team, and Patterson pitcher smashed a single to right. Patterson drew a throw at third as he slid in safely. On the play, Brose went down to second, also drawing a throw to second base. He slid in safely, but was pushed off the bag by Tiger second baseman Buddy Cox, who then tagged him out. On the throw to second, Patterson crossed the plate, but Brose was called out, ending the game. With Missouri leading 3-0 in the eighth inning, Galen Fiss beat out a hit over Boenker's head and John Trombold followed with a single. Leftfielder Rex Smith then walked to fill the bases. John Konek brought Fiss in on a long fly with Trombold moving over to third. He scored on a passed ball. Patterson then struck out to end the inning. In the ninth inning, Frankie Wolf, pinch-hitting for pitcher Jack Stonestreet, slammed a long double to right-center field. John Perry got on on an error then Bob Toalson went in to run for Wolf. Toalson took third on a wild pitch and scored on a long out by Fiss. Trombold beat out a hit but with two out, Smith got the hit sign on a 3-0 pitch and grounded out to Boenker. Stonestreet, starting Kansas hurler, pitched good ball, giving up eight hits in nine innings. He struck out seven. Kansas, playing a much-improved brand of baseball in the last two games, made a number of sparkling plays, two by catcher Fiss. He made a tremendous diving catch of a popfly bunt, and also caught a high popup back near the screen. The Jayhawkers made one error. Ben Dalton, who came in to pitch the 10th, gave up two hits, but they were enough for the Missouri victory. Dalton took the loss. Yesterday's victory gave Missouri a firm hold on first place with an 8-2 Big Seven record, while Kansas now has a 2-6 mark. The Jayhawkers move to Ames Friday and Saturday for a 2-game series with Iowa State. Missouri AB H O A Dickinson, ss 5 2 0 4 Uirarte, bf 5 2 0 4 Bishop, f 5 2 1 0 Bishop, mk 5 2 1 0 J.

Despite their disposal of Schmitz, the Yankees, who will be permitted to carry 27 men because Whitey Ford and rookie outfielder Art Schult are returning servicemen, still have to pare three more players. Among those likely to go are infielders Frank Verdi, Jim Brideweser, and outfielder Bob Cerv. Brooklyn, one man over, reportedly was on the verge of making a deal with the Chicago Cubs, who already are within the limit. The Dodgers are interested in added pitching strength while the Cubs have their eyes on Brooklyn infielder Bobby Morgan. The Washington Senators got a big jump yesterday when they sold infielder Floyd Baker to the Red Sox, pitcher Sandy Consuegra to the White Sox, and optioned pitcher Dean Stone to Chattanooga. That brought them down to the prescribed 25-player limit but they purchased southpaw Johnny Schmitz from the Yankees last night and now must still reduce their roster by one man. By selling pitcher Roger Bowman to Pittsburgh and asking waivers on pitchers Max Lanier and George Spencer for the purpose of releasing them, the New York Giants cleared the way to meet tonight's deadline. Dom DiMaggio's decision to quit baseball left the Red Sox three over the play, and he joined the Pirates. Afterward and Brown each remained two men over the limit. In addition to acquiring Consuegra from the Senators, the White Sox also bought outfielder Allie Clark from the Athletics, thereby putting themselves two men over the 25-man limit. The Reds, with one player too many, were expected to cut loose one of their catchers. The St. Louis Cardinals also will be forced to reduce their roster by one player. In addition to the Giants and Cubs, the Phillies, Braves, Indians, and Tigers all were at the limit or below it. Tennis coach Dick Mechem will take his team to Topeka today to try to defeat one of the two teams that has beaten the Jayhawkers this year—Washburn. Last week the Topekans walked off with the tennis title in the CIC meet. Gene Powell, the No.1 man, captured the singles championship for the second consecutive year, and was a member of the champion doubles team. Powell has been stopped only once this spring, KU's Pete Fotopoulos turning the trick in the previous match here Apr. 29. That match, a 4-3 Washburn triumph, began at Lawrence, but with Kansas leading 2-0, the meet was moved to Topeka because of rain. Fotopoulos, who also topped Powell in 1952, defeated the Blue star here in three sets, 6-1, 2-6, 8-6. Net Squad Meets Washburn Today should be examined today. Call for appointment.

TIGER HERO—Bob Schoomaker, three-sport Missouri star, drove in the winning run with a 10th inning single yesterday as the Jayhawkers went down to their second straight extra-inning defeat, 4-3. Schoomaker is a varsity football and basketball performer and is one of the top stars on the baseball team Braves, Yankees Win With Strong Pitching New York—(U.P.)—Jolly Cholly Grimm says it is a "nice problem" like deciding which bank to deposit a million dollars in but the boss of the Milwaukee Braves had to figure out today how to make room for seven good starting pitchers. Suddenly he came up with two' new ones, rookies Bob Buhl and Don Liddle, who qualified sensationally by pitching two-hitters in their first major league start. Buhl pitched an 8-1 triumph over the Giants last night after Liddle had pitched a 4-1 victory in the second game of a double sweep Sunday. Buhl, the ex-GI from Saginaw, Mich, who pitched for Grimm when he managed Dallas in 1950, had a one-hit shutout until he tired in the ninth and yielded a run on Bobby Thomson's double, two walks, and a long fly. The slugging Braves gave Buhl 14-hit support, Del Crandall and Johnny Logan collecting three apiece. The Braves, by winning their third in a row, now are only half a game behind Brooklyn and a game behind the first-place Phils. Now, along with his two new "phenoms", Grimm has a staff of starters that includes Max Sukont (4-0), Johnny Antonelli (2-1), Warren Spahn (2-1), Jim Wilson (1-0) and Vern Bickford (0-2), a consistent tough pitcher despite a slow start. All that and Lew Burdette, who is acknowledged to be one of the league's best relief men. Buhl wasn't the only star hurler last night. Whitley Ford, another ex-GI, just missed a no-hitter when Early Wynn, his opposing pitcher, struck out in a base side in the sixth inning as the Yankees drubbed Cleveland, 7-0. The Phils made five runs in the ninth, one on a bases-loaded walk. In other National League games, the Phils took first place by defeating the Cardinals, 6-5, and Chicago topped Brooklyn, 6-4 in 11 innings. The Pirates were rained out of a 5-1 three inning lead at Philadelphia's National League games, Washington topped Detroit, 10-1, Chicago edged Boston, 9-7 in 10 innings, and St Louis beat Philadelphia 7-3. two on an error by pitcher Stu Miller, and two on a double by Richie Ashburn to cushion Jim Konstanty to his third victory. Konstanty and Karl Drews yielded four Cardinals runs in the bottom of the ninth, three on homers by Steve Bliko and Solly Hemus. But Andy Hansen extinguished the fire. Willie Jones hit a Philly homer. Def Fondy's two-run 11th inning homer gave the Cubs an uphill victory as Roy Campanella earlier doubled in two tallies for Brooklyn to bring his amazing runs batted in total to 40. Chicago beat Boston on Ferris Fain's two-run double in the 10th after George Kell tied it up with a two-run homer for the Red Sox in the ninth. George Carrasquel earlier hit a grand slam homer for Chicago and Dick Gernert and Tel Lepico homered for Boston in the bat battle. Bobo Holloman, shooting for a second straight no-hitter against the A's, had nothing but trouble as he gave up three hits, three walks, and two runs before going out with a blistered finger in the second. But Don Larsen pitched five-hit relief ball to gain the victory over the A's ace, Bobby Shantz. Less Moss hit a homer and double in the 14-hit Brownie attack. Huskers Get 16 Hits, Pound K-State, 16-8 Nebraska pounded two Kansas State pitchers for 16 hits and a 16-8 victory in Lincoln yesterday. The Huskers won yesterday also. K-State pushed across five runs in the second inning to take a 5-2 lead, but Nebraska came back with three runs in their inning to tie the game up. NU then went on to score three runs in the fifth and sixth innings, and four in the seventh. GIFTS FOR ALL OCCASIONS 809 Mass. Gridders Hold Tough Workout COLLEGE JEWELER Phone 911 Accenting kickoffs and punts, the football squad put in a hard three-hour workout yesterday to get ready for the alumni game Saturday. The first half of practice was spent in kickoff and punting drills with runbacks for the first time since spring drills opened five weeks ago. Junior halfback John Simons, sophomore halfback Bob Forsyth, and frosh半张 Ralph Moody did most of the punting, and several were given tryouts at place-kicking. This was followed by a bruising game-condition scrimmage. The star performer was freshman back George Fisher, who turned in several brilliant runs and was impressive with his passing. Coach J. V. Sikes had Fisher throwing running passes and the Park Ridge, (Ill.) speedster looked like an experienced letterman as most of his passes were completed. Slated for today is a long session of signal drills since the team will begin tapering off for Saturday's game. Tight Play Features IM Softball Games In a complete reversal of the wild games of the past week, the six intramural softball games played yesterday were tight defensive contests.
