WEDNESDAY, APRIL 24, 1946 - NO-HITTER IS HURLED BYE. HEAD Ex-Gl Establishes Himself as First Line Chucker for Dodgers (BY JACK HAND) Press Spc Ed Head's no-hitter dwarfs th rest of the baseball news today, emphasizing the latent strength of a Brooklyn staff that may give thL2 St. Louis Cardinals many anxious moments. The lean righth r from Sel- ma,. La., couldn't ave picked a more effective way of proving to the Ercoklyn management. that he had completely recovered from arm trouble that once threatened to end his big league carcer First Line Chucker Making his first start since July, 1944, the ex-GI definitely establish- ed himself as a f{irst line chucker on Leo Durocher's list sithough the | dkipper wasn't around to ¢ the fun. Leo was busy appearing in a Brocklyn court in connection with his alleged battle with a fan at Lbbets Field last summer. The 26-year-old chucker, started life as a lefthander shifted over to the other side breaking his left arm in an ¢ dent, left litfle to be desired. eral hundred of the 26,787 lyn customers, mobbed him congratulations after the final cuf Fine Ficlding Head walked thr2z men and one got a lift on an error by shorisicp Pee Wee Reese. Fine fielding plays saved him three times, Rockie Carl Furillo ran to the exit gate in right center to drag down Tom- my Holmes' long drive and Pete Reiser made a fine stop on Al Ro- berge’s smash in the third. The most exciting touch was pro- vided by rockie catcher Forrell An- derson, who had hit his first big league homer in the sixth for the final run of the Brooks' 5-0 mar- gin over Boston’s Mort” Codper.” Af- ter Head walked pinch hitter Church Workman in the ninth, he struck out Connie Ryan and An- cerson’s bullet peg to first pickad off Workman for a most important doube play. Needed Game It was a sixth straight win jor the Dcdgers but they needed it to re- main in a first place with the St. Louls Cardinals, who also reeled off a sixth successive victory at tke expense of Cincinnati, 3-2. Re- liefer Ken Burkhart, the second of three Red Bird chuckers, received the credit when three singles, an error and an outficld fly cost Nate (Hard Luck) Andrews another set- back. t The New York Yankees advanced into a first place tie with Boston by banking Philadelphia 3-0. It was a second straight nod for Al Gettél, who traveled north with the Yanks' “B” squad, over _ the Mackmen. Nick Etten's two-run homer doomed 'Lum Harris.
