Campanella’s Homers. Wins Game For Dodgers, 5 To 1 * 'Phils Trade By RALPH RODEN Associated Press Sports Writer The Brooklyn Dodgers got along without Roy Campanella but all hands are glad the husky catcher is back in action even if he isn't exactly shipshape. “My hand still hurts a little when I catch,” Campanella said today, “But I can swing a bat.” That's the understatement of the year. Dutch Hiller, Cincinnati, and Karl Drews, Philadelphia, ean sadly testify that the National League’s most valuable player of 1951 has lost none of his power @tie to his enforced absence. Campanella sat out three games because of a bruised left hand. He returned to action Thursday and rocked Hiller for a 8-run homer. The act receiver continued his destructive work’ Friday night against Drews and the Phils. He drove in all of Brooklyn’s runs in a 5-1 victory with a pair of homers Campanella clouted the 100 thof his career with th ebases empty in the second inning and followed up | with a game-winning grand-slam blast in the third to insure the Dodgers’ seventh straight triumph. Ben Wade, 29-year-old rookie righthander, went all the way for Brooklyn and spaced nine hits to hang up his third triumph. The victory also enabled the Dodgers to protect their half-game lead over the runnerup New York Giants. Sal Maglie recorded his eighth victor ywithout a loss for the Giants as he turned back the Boston Brayes, 5-3. Maglie staggered a bit in the first three innings and in the ninth but from the fourth to the last frame he allowed only one hit. Maglie permitted eight hits, in- cluding three in the first three innings and three in the ninth. Ebba St. Claire cracked a 2-run homer in the ninth. Veteran Ken Raffensberger, sup- ported by youngsters Wally Post and Roy MeMillan, gained his third victory of the season over St. Louis as Cincinnati shaded the Red Birds, 2-1. Post and McMillan homered off Harry Brecheen to ac- count for Cincinnati's runs. The last-place Pittsbypgh Pirates edged the Chicago Cubs, 6-5, in 13 js to snap an 8-game losing streak. Gus Bell and Johnny Mer- son doubled back to back with one out in the 13th to break up the game. Ted Wilks was the winner and Warren Hacker the loser. All American League games also were played at night. The pace Setting Cleveland Indians downed the Browns, 6-3, in St. Louis and the Detroit Tigers swamped the Chicago White Sox, 9-2. The: other clubs were idle. Big Mike Garcia, with help in the eighth from Bob Lemon chalked up his sixth victory for Cleveland. Garcia blanked the Browns on two hits until the eighth when he weakened and allowed two hits and three walks. Lemon took over with the bases loaded and doused the fire. The Indians whacked Ned Garver for eight hits including four doubles, a triple and Al Rosen's ninth homer of the Bcason. The Tigers pounded former Team mates Saul Rogovin and Lou Kret low for 14 safeties at Chicago.

He needed a pitcher. | Carpenter renewed his request for Wyrostek. Four hours later the two clubs had a deal. Church, who had been reported jin Manager Sawyer’s “doghouse” ever since the 1952 season began, was a little miffed by the deal. “I'm shocked at leaving the Phil- | lies,’ he said. | “IT was never given any definite | reason why I was not permitted | to pitch. I broke no training rules | and I was always eager to work. ; | Pitehing is my business. I’m only | 26 and have a dozen years ahead | of me. I don’t want to waste away on anybody’s bench.” The good-looking Alabamian has worked in only two games this |season and was knocked out both times. | a | .
