Tailenders’ home Park sinks Feller in St Louis defeat

The Indians star Bob Feller suffered his first defeat in four starts as the St Louis tailenders blasted nine runs in the sixth inning to beat Cleveland 12-6 at Sportsman's Park. Despite two earlier wins against the Browns in Cleveland, Feller could not make it past the sixth. The loss left Cleveland two games behind the idle Yankees, who resume with a doubleheader against Boston. In other action, the White Sox edged Detroit 7-6, the Dodgers won their 10th straight over Philadelphia 9-2, and the Pirates beat the Cardinals 4-8. The Giants’ Johnny Rucker delivered a clutch two-run double in the 12th to topple Boston 3-0. Cliff Melton pitched six-hit ball for the win. Cincinnati routed Chicago 7-1 behind five early runs.

Draft Rips Big Holes in Western Amateur Golf Ranks

COLORADO SPRINGS July 1 The draft and other national defense measures have ripped a tremendous gap in western amateur golf tournament ranks this year. Only 56 players signed for the 42nd running at Broadmoor, far short of the usual 64 bracket for match play. Marvin Ward defends as 31 rivals join him, with two rounds Thursday and Friday to cut to four for Saturday’s 36 holes. The shortage stems from selective service work and travel costs. Theodore C. Butz of Chicago notes it’s the first big amateur event since the draft law and wants to see its effect on golf.
