Netmen Face Bears Today
The Washington university tennail team will put its 26-game winning streak on the line today when it engages the Jayhawkers at 2 p.m. on the cement courts south of the stadium.
The Bears have amassed their amazing streak over a three-year period. The Bears won their 26th match the past Saturday, beating Westminster, 7 to 0.
Two brothers, Bob and Bill Zier-vogel, form the backbone of the Washington squad and have been virtually unbeatable all year. Bob Savitt, Bob Light, and Bill Muenz round out the starting team.
Washington blanked the Jayhawkers recently in St. Louis, 7 to 0, but Kansas played the match without the services of three first string players. Coach Jim Seaver said he expected his squad would be a full-strength for today's match. Dick Richards, Hal Miller, Glenn Tonder, Hervey Macferran, and Charlie Carson will see action for the Jayhawkers.
Spahn Hurls Two-Hitter
New York, April 29—(UP)—Warren Spain is a baseball rarity, a lefty with control. Spain was the best left-handed pitcher in baseball last season and it began to look today as if he was ready to go out and defend his honors.
Capitalizing on control, the slender slinger for the Boston Braves pitched a magnificent game yesterday, facing only 28 batters, walking none and giving up only two hits in a 7 to 0 triumph over the Phillies. Only three men got to first, one on an error, and two of these went down stealing.
He yielded no hits until the fifth when Dick Sisler singled, and after he was tagged for another single by Blix Donnelly in the sixth, he retired the next 13 batters in order
Spahn also was helpful at the plate, beating out a bunt and dropping another for a sacrifice which advanced two men in the 13 hit Boston attack. Bill Salkeld led the hitting with a triple and two singles, driving in two runs with his three-bagger in the Braves' five-run fifth
Spahn, a 21-game winner last season, also had the league's lowest earned run average, 2.33, and gave up fewer walks, 84, than any other pitcher who appeared in as many games.
Spahn's Control Best
The Buffalo southpaw wasn't the only lefty who had a good day yesterday. Johnny Vander Meer, the old double no-hit hero of the Reds, had one of his rare days and topped the Cubs, 8 to 1 at Cincinnati. It was a bitter victory for the Reds, however, because their "iron man" catcher, Ray Mueller, suffered a fractured right ankle. Sliding into the plate in the fifth. Mueller A. Worker.
Mueller earned his "iron man" title when he set an all-time major league record of catching 217 straight games in 1943 and 1944, handling all 155 games for the Reds in the latter year. He will be lost to the club for at least 60 days.
The Tigers ended their five game losing streak at St. Louis, defeating the Browns, 9 to 4 with a 15-hit attack that included a homer, double, and single by Pat Mullin. Virgil Trucks received credit for his second victory, though he needed relief help.
Virgil Stallcup led the 12 hit Cincinnati attack, driving in three runs with a two bagger and two singles.
Coach Jules V. Sikes put his spring football squad through a spirited two-hour scrimmage Wednesday afternoon in an effort to sharpen up the Jayhawker's passing and running attack as they prepare for the big inter-squad game May 7.
Air Attack Improving
Coach Sikes was cheered by the improvement of the passing attack. Although the passing picture has been a question mark all spring, the offensive team, sparked by the accurate passing of Bill "Red" Hogan, scored time after time on passes.
Hogan, who has been dividing his time between football and baseball, returned after a week-end of baseball to handle the passing department like a veteran. Tom Scott, Don Wilson, and Frank Pattee were also on the throwing end during the scrimmage.
Bud French, Dick Bertuzzi, Dick Gilman, and Jack Fink were also on hand for the first time since Wednesday due to their baseball activities. Fink moved into the left guard position replacing the injured Don Fambrough. Fambrought injured an ankle the past week, and has been out of action since that time.
Other injuries on the squad included Bryan Sperry, right end, who broke a finger in Saturday's scrimmage, and Junior Brott, tackle, who has been nursing an injured leg.
Spring drills will continue through the remainder of this week and up until May 6. The following day the squad will be divided equally into two teams and will engage in an inter-squad game under the lights at Haskell stadium.
