Jim Hearn was the win- ner. League - leading Brooklyn was idle Monday. So were the Boston Braves, St. Louis Cards and Cin- cinnati Reds. The Cleveland Indians, with seven straight wins, were not scheduled in the American. St. Louis, Chicago and Detroit also were idle. Vie Raschi whipped the Phila- delphia A’s for the eighth straight time, running his lifetime record against them to 22-2, with the New York Yankees’ 5-1 triumph. Actu- ally the relief work of Bob Kuzava and two glaring errors by Gus Zernial and Joe Astroth were as . | important as Raschi’s work. When Raschi wobbled in the eighth to fill the bases on a single and two walks, Casey Stengel ealled for Kuzava. The lefthander got the side out and breezed through the ninth. Julio Moreno whipped the Boston Red Sox for the second time, 3-2. Moreno is the only pitcher to beat the Sox this season. Sam Mele’s long fly to center with the bases loaded in the eighth gave Wash- ington its winning run. Umpire Joe Paparella touched | off a rhubarb in the Boston fifth | when he ruled, on an appeal, that Faye Trhoneberry’s line single ac- tually hit Baserunner Walt Dropo. In the fuss, Paparella ejected Lou Boudreau for the first time as ; | Red Sox manager. Dream Becomes A Fact OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla.

PHONE 242 er Football Year Smith Fights Chavez Wednesday Fabela Chavez, Hollywood, Call- fornia, featherweight challenges the undefeated record of Gene Smith in a 10-round mid-week box- ing show, Wednesday, April 23rd. The Pabst Blue Ribbon Bout, to be held in Uline Arena, Washington, D. C., will be broadcast over the CBS radio network. Smith, a great favorite with fight fans in the Washington-Baltimore area, has an impressive knock-out record, 21 out of 29 pro fights. His recent victory, a decision over ve- teran Glen Flanagan, further aug- ments his reputation as a smashing and punishing fighter. Fabela Chevaz, former Califor nia featherweight _title-holder, fighting professionally since 1945, has confined his activities to the West Coast. His record, although not as impressive as Smith's, shows he has knock-out ability too, Chavez is expected to be a serious stumbling block to Smith’s pheno- menal title march. Goods are carried up the Rhine to Switzerland at about half the ; cost of land transport.
