THE KEY WEST CITIZEN Monday, September 8, 1952 _SEDGMAN COPS. NET WIN SUN. By HUGH FULERTON JR. FOREST HILS, N. Y. @—Frank Sedgman, Australia’s silent strong man of tennis, can paint an ex- tremely dim picture of America’s Davis Cup prospects in a few Sedgman is the world’s best ten- “Mulloy was getting stronger at the finish,” he murmured. “I con- centrated on his backhand. I thought he hit cross court all the time, but he hit some good ones down the line.” The Australian star, who holds all three of the world’s major men’s titles, admitted his hardest match in this country was the New- port Invitation final against Aus- ’s second-ranking player, Ken McGregor. He thought the lower half of the draw, in which he played, was harder than the half that Mulloy came through and that the Wimbledon seeding system of putting all players on one list was the Hills method : i i af i F 1 es i ghee, al Deep South — Gridders Look To Top Season By STERLING SLAPPEY ATLANTA (#—Down in the Deep South there are facts to back the belief that 1952 either will’ be the season. To top that year Tennessee, Georgia Tech, Mississippi and Co. must produce at least eight or nine first-rate teams in the 12-team league. : That is precisely what the South- eastern looks like it’s doing. Mississippi State is ruled the weakest in the loop and Auburn | and. Tulane aren’t buzzsaws, but not one of those three deserves the label “‘lousey.” The Associated Press’ nation- wide pre-season poll duly honored Georgia Tech ‘as third best in col- lege football and Tennessee as sixth best. Mississippi didn’t break into the top 10, but if the Rebels don’t deserve to be there then col- lege football is far and away the best it has ever been.

ALL-STARS WALLOP _ CONCHS SUNDAY, 5-2 By OSCAR MILIAN Behind the superb pitching of George “Viti” Vidal and the big | explosive gun of Robert Santana, the Key West All-Stars hung a jj clean cut victory over the Key West Conchs of the Florida International League in an exhibition game played at Wicker’s Stadium last night. The final score, All-Stars 5, Conchs 2. For the Conchs it was a clowning exhibition from the opening stanza, m' as Severino Mendez, first man up struck out, Arterio Bosch tripled to left center and danced a rumba- mambo as he scored on Barney Lutz’ long fly to right field, Nap Reyes hit a slow grounder to third and walked to the dugout instead of making a run for it. The All-Stars tied the count in the third inning on Robert Santa- na’s line triple to left center and crossed the plate when Arterio Bosch, still the funny man for the night, fumbled Curtis Brown’s roller to snoristop. In the fifth, Barney Lutz’ Conchs took the lead again as Eddy Ziel- insky drew a base on balls, Dick Haack, batting for DelMonte sin- gled to center, Zielinski sliding in to third on the hit and crossed the Platter on Severino Mendez’ line single to left. George Vidal tighten- ed up and ended the scoring for the Conchs for the remainder of the game as his mates tied the count at 2 all in the top of the seventh on singles by Claude Val- dez, Curtis Brown and Robert San- tana coupled by sacrifice hit by Vidal and a fielder’s choice. The All-Stars rallied in the ninth to ice the game with 3 runs on 6 hits. Clarence Alce, batting for Claude Valdez hit safely to right field, went to second on George Vidal’s sacrifice and scored on Robert Santana’s triple to center, his third hit of the game and sec- ond three bagger, Alvio Acevedo, hitting for Al Cabot, singled San- tana in, Curtis Brown hit safely to centerfield and Acevedo was thrown out, Mendez to Reyes as he tried to make third on the hit. Clayton Sterling’s line to left sent Brown to third who scored on De- Witt Roberts’ hit over second base. After ‘walking Nap Reyes, the first batter to face him in the bot- tom of the ninth, Vidal settled down and forced the next three batsmen in order. Severino Mendez, collected three of the five hits allowed by Vidal, Arterio Bosch’ three bagger and Dick Haack’s single were the other two. It was a good game all the way through and despite the threaten- ing weather there was an estimat- ed crowd of over 500 who express- ed surprise of the outcome of the game With George Vidal on the mound for the picked team. All proceeds were turned over to the Florida International League Conchs with the exception of state and federal taxes. Umpires, ticket ‘sellers, ticket takers and score keeper donated their time to the elub who has brought so many thrills to this town from the time the franchise was taken over by this city.

Righthander Sal Maglie was shelled from the mound in the sev- enth inning and suffered the defeat Roe rarely beats the Giants. In fact, he was not supposed to have pitched at all. Maglie rarely loses to the Dodgers. He had been primed for this game for nearly a week. Now back to the rhubarb. “I really fooled that guy,” Dres: thought all along I was going to pitch righthander Joe Landrum and he started three lefthanded hitters against us. That's just what I wanted him to do. You should have seen his face when I made that last-minute switch to Roe. He nearly had a fit. But he was horn- swaggled. There was he could do.” Dressen said it was this way: “T planned this move several days ago. I got the idea when I noticed Leo yanked Hank Thomp- son and Don Mueller, both left- handers, for righthanders Bob El- liott and, Clint Hartung when the Phillies pitched Curt Simmons, a southpaw, last Wednesday. “{ figured if it could get Duro- cher to open with the lefthanded hitters, I'd switch to Roe at the last minute. I didn’t want those righthanded hitters facing Roe. I wanted that extra edge. It worked good, didn’t it?” Dressen worked his plan out like they do in the movies. He had Landrum warm up before the game for everybody to.see. Roe, in the meantime, accompanied by the bullpen. “I made out four lineup cards,” he explained. ‘Three cards had the name of ‘Landrum’ as the pitcher. The other had ‘Roe.’ I gave one ‘Landrum’ card to the announcer, another to the Giant ; dio. bench and held another for the re- | porters. The ‘Roe’ card I gave to the umpires. That was the one which counted, you see. Leo never got wise.” Durocher insisted he knew from the beginning that Roe was going to be the pitcher. “I spotted Roe warming up in the bullpen from my office in the centerfield clubhouse,” said Leo “I turned to Freddy Fitzsimmons (Giant coach) and said: “That little so-and-so is going to pitch Roe.’ “But I never thought of making a change. I could have, if I wanted to. It was long before I handed in my lineup to the umpires. But why should I change? I’ve been win- ning with it.” “Tl tell you what. Should Dres- sen pitch a lefthander against us Betsy Rawls Cops Golfing Win Sun. CARROLLTON, Ga. #— Texan Betsy Rawls’ tournament earnings for 1952 stand at $13,570, tops among women golf pros, after her four-stroke victory in the Carroll- ton Women’s open. The Austin, Tex., girl toured the Sunset Hills Country Club course in 74 strokes Sunday, two over par, for a ‘54 - hole total of 214. Her triumph was worth $750 of the $3,000 purse. Louise Suggs, Carrollton, nation- al open champion, was second with 218. She matched Miss Rawls’ 74 for the final round and each girl a 69 in the first round, but slipped Saturday to 75. Miss igs won $540. arilynn Smith, Wichita, Kans., slumped to 79 after firing 72-71 in the first two rounds but finished in third place with 222 and netted $420. All 12 pros shared in the purse.
