CAROLINA Sports Hodge-Podge BY CARLE HODGE Wilmington’s first look at a negro baseball game in some time will be tonight’s exhibition between the Newark Eagles and the Cuban Stars of New York. Both clubs are in the National Negro league and have a good record in the colored circuit. One thing you’ll see in any negro sports competition is action and spirit. So tonight’s game is due to draw a large crowd m both the white and negro seating sections. The Durham High Bulldogs naturally hope that they will beat Wilson Friday. But they are not wishing a darn bit more than Wilmington Coach Rupert Brjan. Bryan is serving his debut season as the Cat baseball tutor, so it would be quite a feather for his hat if his boys cop the conference bunting. And if Wilson loses, that would be within the realm of easy possibility. Mayor R. C. Fergus of Carolina Beach, one of the sec tion’s top authorities on fishing, says that shad catches in this area in the season which closed April 15 were under those of the past several years. He estimates the 1942 total as about 85 per cent of last season’s top amount. As for sports fishing at the beach this summer, the mayor ventures that fishermen won’t be bothered much by the ban on pier lighting,,going on with their casting in the dark and taking advantage of moonlit nights. Sports Carbon: “Man may lose his temper, his shirt and his dignity on a race like the Kentucky Derby,” says Romney Wheeler of the AP. “But confidentially did you ever see a horse lose even a bucket of oats on the outcome?” The Wilmington Scene: There’s talk of another base ball league here, probably to be comprised of teams of younger fellows and playing on Sunday afternoon . . . The New Hanover Fishing club’s ’42 annual has been held up by bott’enecks of a war-busy town. Now it’s due off the press early in May . . . Although personnel at every army station is changing rapidly, the Airbase Reds and Blues have as sured Softball Commissioner Bert Moore that every time one of their players is transferred another will be ready to take his place ... Moore, by the way, is looking for an experienced scorekeeper. ____ Raleigh Caps Forfeit Game To Wildcats Capitals Unable To Make Trip Here; Rocky Mount Defeats Durham, 7-2 Rupert Bryan’s Wilmington.Wild cats were a step nearer a tie for the conference championship Tues day night after the Raleigh Caps, slated to play here yesterday aft ernoon, forfeited to the locals for lack of transportation. Although the Cats received an automate win because of the Capitals’ failure to appear, the game was to have marked the final scheduled home appearance of the nine. Yesterday’s tilt was forfeited through a long distance telephone call from Raleigh to Coach Bryan. Only a double-header, for which a date has not been set, with the Rocky Mount Blackbirds and a win by Durham High over Wilson Friday stand in the way of a Wil son-Wilmington tie for the crown. The twin bill is to be played at Rocky Mount. The league-trailing* Blackbirds defeated Durham 7 to 2 Tuesday, ending Bulldog hopes for a three way tie. Conference standings: Team Won Lost Pet.

This meeting of the handicap di vision’s kingpins in the S8jh renew al of Pimlico’s richest fixture for older horses, adds lustre to the Dixie and temporarily takes the play away from the candidates for Saturday’s $50,000-added Preakness stakes.

Published in the form of a four page tabloid, the paper carries a summary of the progress made by the shipyard during its little more than one year of existence, pic tures of four of the nine launch ings that have taken place from the ways on the Cape Fear, and brief items about current happen ings in the yards. A total of six completed Liberty freighters have been delivered to the Maritime commission of the nine launched, the paper reveals, while nine more keels have been laid to make a total of 18. S. P. Ware is editor pro-tem, and J. R. Stillman, Jr., Mrs. Gladys Best Chasten and Walton P. Burk heimer are associate editors.

DURHAM GOLFER IS RULED OUT BY TOURNAMENT Action By National Group Against Carolina Pro Over shadows Preliminaries DURHAM, May 5.—(^—Suspen sion of Clayton Heafner, Durham golfer, by the Professional Golfers association today overshadowed the sectional qualifying round for the Carolinas district battle for the two places in the national event to be held at Atlantic City, N. J., the latter part of this month. Heafner was just about to step upon the tee at Hope Valley this morning when he was informed by President George Slingerland, of Greensboro, who heads this P. G. A. district, that the national body had ruled him out of the Atlantic City event, even if he qualified here. Slingerland informed Heafner the action of the P. G. A. was based upon Heafner’s allegedly “unethi cal” conduct in the Asheville Open golf tournament. Heafner asserted he thought the action was based on the fact he withdrew from the Ashe ville event after playing eight holes. He further stated the decision might have been reached because of a personal argument he had with another pro at Asheville. Although his suspension notice was handed him early this morning, Heafner remained at Hope Valley and watched the other golfers com pete for the two berths in the na tional event. Heafner said he had sent his check to the P. G. A. about three weeks ago and had received his membership card last week, en titling him to a year’s membership in the organization. “And now they inform me that X can’t play in the National P. G. ' A. championships. Why in the world did they accept my dues if they didn’t intend to accept me all the way?” he asked. President Baffled President Slingerland was baffled over the action of the P. G. A. He .asserted the first news he had about the affair came yesterday morning from Guy Paulson, district secre tary, in a telephone message from Winston-Salem. Paulson was here Monday for the pro-amateur event, but returned to Winston-Salem Mon day night. “I don't know what it’s all about,” Slingerland said, “I may have a let ter awaiting me in Greensboro, ex plaining the entire thing. Until then there is nothing I can say.” Slingerland indicated that the pro fessional golfers in the Carolina dis trict intended to stick by Heafner and get all the facts in the case. “This thing is a direct slap in the face at our organization. It does our district no good,” he said, “to have such an incident as this oc cur. But, what can we do about it? You can be sure we intend to find out all the facts in the case and will do all we can to protect Heafner and the rights of our district. Until I receive additional information on the subject I don’t want to commit myself,” he finished. -V TAYLOR IS READY FOR FIGHT HERE Boxer Confident He Will Stop Chief Beaver In Bout Friday Night Tiny Taylor who is training for his scheduled ten-round bout here Friday night at Thalian Hall against Chief Little Beaver, Chero kee Indian wrestler, said he will keep his eye on the grappler every minute he is in the ring. In his last boxing match here, Beaver won on a knockout over Abe Yourist, wrestler, after spout ing water in his face, but Taylor said nothing like that will happen to him when he meets Beaver. “I’ll be on the lookout for just such dirty tricks,” the boxer said. Although Taylor, former Golden Gloves heavyweight boxer, has had only four professional fights, he said he has an excellent trainer who is rapidly whipping him into top form as a boxer. He is confident of victory and believes he will be able to stop the Indian long before the final gong sounds. Taylor is a giant and packs a terrible wallop in each hand. The boxing bout will be support ed by a wrestling match between Sailor Barto Hill and Bibber Mc Coy, who are appearing in a re turn engagement, McCoy having won last week’s event on a dis puted decision. The match will be for the best two out of three falls with a ninety minute time limit, and according to the promoter, ‘it should be a natural.’ Doors at Thalian Hall will open at 7:15 o’clock with the first event going on at 8:40 o’clock. -V Historical material relating to Alaska is being assembled by the University of Alaska through a grant from the Rockefeller Foun dation. \ * French Leads Dodgers To Win Over St. Louis Brooklyn Beats Cards 3-1; Boston Braves And Cin cinnati Are Winners (Condensed From AP Reports) Lefty French, the 33-year-old vet eran whom the Brooklyn Dodgers almost cut adrift during their Flori da training, pitched and battled the National league champions to a 3 to 1 eleven inning triumph over the Cardinals in St. Louis Monday. Working against the newest south paw sensation of the senior circuit, 21-year-old Howard Pollet, the crafty French kept the Cardinals to four scattered hits and would have had a shutout except for an error by Billy Herman in the eighth. French himself drove in the first run of the game with a single in the seventh and when the bitter duel ran into overtime, French again came through with a single to drive BOSOX BOMBARD INDIANS, 13-3 Joe DiMaggio Paces Yanks To Triumph Over Chisox; A’s Beat Tigers (Condensed From AP Report*/ The Red Sox bombarded a trio of Cleveland pitchers for 18 hits and a total of 28 bases in Boston Tues day while sweeping their three-game series with the league-leading In dians with a 13-3 triumph. The Indians, who have been jit tery since the Sockers broke their 13-game winning streak, again were ragged afield and made four errors, which gave them a total of nine for the series. Joe DiMaggio boosted the Yan kees into second place in the Ameri can league today with two home runs and a triple that brought a 5 to 4 ten-inning triumph over the Chicago White Sox in New York. DiMaggio was ably supported by young Hank Borowy, who gave a glittering relief performance in holding the Sox to one hit and fan ning seven in 7 1-3 innings. Rookie John Lindell made his first start on the mound for the Yanks and yielded four runs to the Sox in three innings, two of them through Yankee errors in the first inning and another on a homer by Wally Moses in the second. Christopher Hurls Rookie Russ Christcpher, drafted from a Yankee farm, pitched a three-hitter in his first major league start to give the Philadelphia Ath letics a 2-1 victory over the Detroit Tigers. The defeat allowed Christopher’s former employers to move into sec ond place in the American league, replacing Detroit. Dizzy Trout, on the mound for the Tigers, was nicked for seven hits, three of which came in the eighth inning when the A’s scored the win ning runs. A single by Mike Kree vich, Bob Johnson’s double and a single by Dick Siebert accounted for the A’s runs. Senators Win Bob Harris limited Washington to fi\ e Jiits today but his fellow Browns supported him feebly and the Sena tors captured a 5-3 decision over St. Louis as Early Wynn checked the visitors with eight hits. * Harris was staked to a 2-0 lead in the fourth on Walter Judnich’s single and doubles by Chet Laabs and Bo’* Swift but the Browns, who made f'*ir errors, yielded Washing ton three runs in the second half of the inning. --V Bill Lohrman Bought By Giants From Cards CINCINNATI, May 5.— (J>) The New York Giants have purchased Pitcher Bill Lohrman, lanky right hander, from the St. Louis Cardi nals, Traveling Secretary Eddie Brannick of the Giants announced here today. Lohrman was sent to the Cards with Catcher Kenny O’Dea and a wad of cash in the deal which brought First Baseman Johnny Mize to the Giants last winter. He won nine and lost 10 for the Giants last season and had an earned run average of 402 -V Chicago Pro Halfback George McAfee Reports To Florida Navy Field JACKSONVILLE, Fla., May 5. OP)—George McAfee, stellar right halfback for the world champion Chicago Bears of the National professional football league and former all America player for Duke university, re ported for active duty at the Jacksonville Naval Air station today. A chief specialist, McAfee was recruited by Lieut. Cmdr. Gene Tunney, head of the Navy’s physical fitness pro gram. I in the run that broke the tie in the eleventh. The Dodgers went into the con test with a four-game losing streak, including a double setback by St. Louis Sunday, and were only half a game ahead of the second place Pittsburgh Pirates. To meet this predicament French was called upon for his first starting assignment, of the year and the result was spectac ular. Jimmy Wallace, a tiny, apple cheeked boy with a winning smile and a pretzel curve, made his bow as a big league hurler for the Boston Braves in Pittsburgh—and did a man-sized chore of throttling the Pirates, 7-1, on six widely scattered hits. The 20-year-old Braves’ southpaw freshman who prepped professional ly in his home town of Bridgeport, Conn., is the smallest member of the Boston mound staff. But he was a “little giant” as he unfurled pitching which, coupled with effec tive Boston hitting, gave the Braves a 2-2 break in a series ending to ! day. The Braves lambasted three Pirate hurlers for 16 hits in an assault which settled the game as early as the second inning with a two-run outburst. One more run came across in the third and a three-run ninth put the clincher on things. Walters Wins In Cincinnati, Bucky Walters broke into the victory column for the fii it time as the Reds nosed out the N :w York Giants 2 to 1 in the tenth inning to end a stirring pitch ing struggle between Walters and Hal Schumacher. Each hurler allowed only five hits, but three of the RedS’ came in suc cession in the tenth and it was Bucky who set off the winning rally. Phils Whip Cubs Johnny Podgajny, always a Chi cago Cub nemesis, whipped the Bruins again in the windy city, 4 to 2. The triumph gave the Phila delphia Phillies the series, two games to one. Podgajny yielded 10 hits, one more than Claude Passeau allowed, but kept the Cub blows well scattered. Meantime, the Phillies took advant age of five bases on balls, five er rors and five stolen bases in their run making. -V NEGRO PRO CLUBS TO CLASH TONIGHT Newark Eagles And Cuban Stars Of New York Play Exhibition At Stadium Sections will be reserved for white spectators at the N e w a rk Eagle-Cuban Star Negro exhibition baseball game at Legion stadium at 8.30 o’clock Wednesday night, it was announced yesterday.
