Wilhelm’s First Hit Of Season Beat Dodgers By JOE REICHLER NEW YORK (#—Hoyt Wilhelm’s first hit of the season was the de- ciding blow in the New York Giants 7-4 victory over Brooklyn last night but you might have thought it was Willie Mays or Dusty Rhodes at the plate by the way the Dodgers huddled before pitching to the ace relief hurler. Dodger Captain Pee Wee Reese and ptcher Jim Hughes suddenly called time in the seventh inning with Giant pitcher Hoyt Wilhelm at bat and summoned Manager Walt Alston out of the dugout for a conference in the middle of the diamond. The score was tied at 4-4. There were two out and Giant runners on first and third. Wilhelm, probably the worst hitting pitcher in base- the plate. The knuckleball expert had not made a hit all season. Hughes got ready to pitch, hesi- tated, then called catcher Rube Walker to the mound. After a brief talk, Hughes motioned to Reese to join the conference. Reese finally yelled to the bench for Alston. The crowd of 46,611 sat impatiently, wondering what was going on as the quartet conversed with ges- tures. After the game it was revealed | 1 they were discussing how to pitch to Wilhelm, the guy who had gone to bat 16 official times this season and hadn’t come close to getting a hit. It seems that nobody on the club could recall how to pitch to the Giant hurler. The Dodgers had faced Wilhelm many times since he came up to the Giants in 1952 but his batting appearances against them have been few and far be- tween, After the conference the Giants’ new slu, star slashed a single through middle of the diamond into centerfield to score Don Muel- ler from third with the tie-breaking run, That was the ball game. The two eighth-inning rungs were mere icing to the cake. 4 As you would expect, the Dodger dressing room was ag quiet as a graveyard. The only one willing to talk was Alston. “‘Wilhelm’s hit beat us, no doubt about that,” the Dodger manager said. “Nobody knew how to pitch to him. I certainly didn’t. I don’t think I have ever seen him bat, We finally decided to throw him curves. The pitch he hit was a low curve.” Key West Gains Double Victory . The Key West Little League and Babe Ruth All-Stars gained victor- ies last night in a pair of tilts against the Coral Gables All-Stars. In the first game, Billy Solomon hurled the Little Leaguers to a 2.0 victory, striking out 14 batters and allowing but one hit. Key West scored their two runs on hits by R. Garcia, R. Curry and D. Garcia. In the nightcap, the Babe Ruth League All-Stars downed Coral Ga- bles 8-1 behind the two hit hurling of Sidney Kerr. Casas paced the six hit Key West attack with three singles. Americans Bring Back Curtis Cup By RALPH BERNSTEIN ARDMORE, Pa. #—America re- gained the Curtis Cup from the British yesterday and if Mrs. John Lions Regatta Slated In Bight Here Sunday Weather permitting, the speed and spray boys under the sponsor- ship of the Key West Lion’s Club will converge on Garrison Bight off the Boulevard Sunday afternoon to do battle in 10 heats of fast and furious outboarding. This Regatta has been an an- nual affair with the Lion’s for sev- eral years and from the race boys point of view, is one of the most hotly contested meets of the entire year. There will probably be a maxi- mum of rough driving among the leading drivers, as they are close- ly bunched in points at this time, also due to the fact that the newly formed racing committee has in- formed the drivers that they are not going to tolerate the races as a diaper parade in the future. Some of the committee members stated that they (the drivers) were all big boys now and they should go out on the course and show more fight and less squawking a- bout what the other driver does. This attitude in the Club may have encouraged Dr. Fred Car- bonell to return to the racing wars after being absent from com- petition for some time. He has an entry in the Hydro class Sunday. Top Hydro point man, Ray Miller is away on vacation and the boys hope to be able to greet him on his return with the news that you are not'top man any more. All in all, Sunday afternoons ra- ces should produce plenty of ex- citement for all those interested in outboard racing. The Outboard Auxiliary will serve a ham supper at the Out- board Club house for the members and their families, the out of town drivers will be guests of the club. This is to follow the conclusion of the races. Starting time 1:30 p. m. Place — Garrison Bight.

FRANKEL CINCININATI im — “tT was just tired of being pushed around,” Johnny Logan said today in ex- plaining last night’s baseball brawl between Cincinnati and Milwaukee players. The players, coaches and man- agers swarmed onto the field from the benches and bullpens after Logan, Milwaukee shortstop, squared off with Jim Greengrass, Cincinnati left fielder, in the eighth [soe en ae ts | least Separate fi: jand several wrestling matches oh lowed before peace was restored. The Braves went on to win the 12-inning game, 3-2. Logan said Wally Post had hit jhim in the thigh earlier in the game and pitcher Corky Valentine had rolled over him in a football block in the previous inning. The Cincinnati Redlegs plowed ahead in the eighth 21 on Ted Kluszewski’s 42nd home run of the year. Then Greengrass singled. Johnny Temple hit a ground ball and this play set the brawl in action. Greengrass slid into second and wrapped his legs around Logan, who was standing guard. “I thought he tried to swing at me with the ball,” Greengrass said after the game. “I didn’t spike him. I had my feet tucked under him.” Joe Taylor, assistant Milwaukee trainer, struck at several players, ineluding Cincinnati pitcher Bud Podbielan. Dick Bartell, the Cincin- nati coach, had his arms around Milwaukee infielder Sibby Sisti. “The trouble was,” said Gus. Bell of Cincinnati, “You didn’t know who was fighting and who was trying to break it up.” MOTORCYCLE | CING SUN., SEPT. 12 Boca Chica Beach Race Course Time Trials 1 P.M.
