He had lost Monte Irvin and Willie Mays, two-thirds of his regular outfield, and what manager can afford that sort of a blow? But upon thinking it all over today, they went back to feeling sorry for themselves—all except Brooklyn’s Chuck Dressen, who still thinks the Dodgers will win the pot. Not only does Durocher have Bob Elliott to take Irvin’s spot, but he has decided to give Dick Wakefield, who has played in just about all four corners of the coun- try, a tryout. This will be the last one for the former University of Michigan bonus baby. He was turned down by several other maj- or league teams. The- way Durocher has been waving his magic wand, it wouldn’t come through. Although the Lip is counting on his newest acquisition for pinch-hitting chores at the moment, Dick could fill Mays’ Shoes if he looks good. He’s been Pounding the ball with authority and has banged out three hits in his four trips to the plate including two in Thursday’s 4-0 triumph over the Cleveland Indians. The Giants had been taking regu- lar pastings from the Tribe in their cross - country tour, and the New York win was only the third in 14 games between the two teams. Larry Jansen and Max Lanier, a couple of Durocher’s top elbow- men, demonsrated midseason form in whitewashing the hard - hitting Indians. The Dodgers managed to pull one out of the fire, overcoming the Washington Senators, 4-3, after trailing, 2.0, after three innings. Starter Chris Van Cuyk was the winner. Bobo Newsom, at 43, start- ing his fifth term with the Nats, hurled the last three innings and sent nine Dodgers in a row back to the bench. The Boston Braves’ Warren Spahn gave up nine hits, but they were scattered enough to enable his tehm to decision the Boston Red Sox, 5-4. In the only other game between major league clubs, the Philadel- phia Phillies nipped the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-7, in a 6-inning contest called to perm’: the teams to catch a train, Major league teams broke even in four games with minor league squads. The Philadelphia A’s stopped Greensboro of the Carolina League, 9-6, and the Chicago White Sox had to go 10 innings before whipping the Atlanta Crackers of the Southern Association, 10-9. The world champion New York Yankees dropped a 6-2 verdict to the Baltimore Orioles of the In- ternational League and the Dettcit Tigers were trimmed by the Chat- tanooga Lookouts of the Southern Association, 6-3. Bob Cerv, outfield rookie for the Yankees, was a baseball and basketball star for the Univer- sity of Nebraska. er Teams nter Island re abe Applications are now being re- ceived from managers of softball teams wishing to enter Island City Softball League, it was an- nounced today by Paul G.

Miami Sun Sox Leads Race With Two Straight Wins By The Associated Press ‘The Miami Sun Sox hung high in the Florida International League’s young pennant race today with two straight victories over the Lakeland Pilots while other teams were evening the score with their opponents.

The Board further authorized the erection of a fence on Truman avenue protecting Truman school children from traffic on U.S. No. 1. The fence will keep balls from floating out into the street, and children from running after them, it is hoped.

As a practical matier, however, the battling over the Republican nomination is certain to move into | a TSP phase: with Eisenhower's re- turn. In Europe, he has been remote from the hurly-burly of the strug- gle. This has had .both advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, he has not been under pres- sure to express himself on the de- velopments of the day — such as the steel situation — as have others in the race. On the other hand, he has not been in close contact with the American people and with the par- ty leaders in states and local com- munities. A sample of the sort of things into which Eisenhower may have to mix on his return was afforded today by a demand from Rep. Pow- ell (D.-N. Y.) that the Senate La- bor Committee invite Eisenhower to give his views on the “all-im- had requested Eisenhower’s views on civil rights and had received a letter from the general stating “I simply cannot find the time to make the detailed studies and an- alysis required to answer the questions you submitted.” “Moreover,” Powell. quoted Ei- Messages to all points in Ca-/ senhower as having written, “there nada, Alaska, and Mexico and: in- erations are not involved in the current labor dispute.

Friday, April 11, 1952 NORMAL TELEPHONE (Continued From Page One) against striking Communications Workers of America. The local pickets had been doing heavy duty on the side- walks, since there are only two Western Electric members of CWA-CIO in Key West. All Southern Bell CWA opera- tors, business employees and other members of the union re- fused since Wednesday at 1 p. m. to cross W.E. picket lines to enter the building on Simonton ‘Street. Chet Cold, local manager and other supervisory employees maintained limited service dur- ing the 36 hour strike. Last night as soon as the union received word of the injunction, the Western Electric pickets stopped, and the night telephone operator came to work. This morning the full shift of employees returned to work at 7 o’clock and business is normal. “We certainly appreciate the cooperation of the public during the period of curtailed operation,” Cold said today. Key Westers heeded the plea of the company’s recorded mes- Sage, not to place calls unless they were emergency. As a re- sult even outgoing emergency toll calls were held down. Na- turally there were many calls coming into Key West, however. Yesterday, one man called the THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Cains Will Build ‘ $17,000 Duplex On Reynolds St. Comdr. and Mrs. E. V. Cain, Jr. have been issued a building permit to construct a $17,000 one-story duplex building at 1440 Reynolds. Other permits issued were to: Genevieve Shultz, 417 Si- monton, repairs porch, $300, ° A. Alexander, 1028 Tru- company. After hearing the mes+ sage “make no call unless it is an emergency,” he. still persisted in getting the operator. His voice came through, tc the supervisory staff member handling the phone, saying: “IT guess it is an emergency! My wife is going to have a baby, and soon!” The call went through. The temporary injunction against the striking CWA union was issued by Duval County Cir- cuit Court Judge A. D. McNeill, according to the (®). He signed the injunction yesterday, effec- tive at 7 this morning, through- out the state. The members of the striking union, immediately agreed to comply with the injunction and clear the company property of pickets. ANOTHER THOR FIRST!
