Hubbers Widen Margin Over
Blue Sex With 6-5 Victory
Chris Haskins, purchased from
Lamesa only Wednesday, pitched
end betted Lubbock to a 6-5 vic-
tory over Abilene in the opener of
a three-game series st Lubbock
last night, widening the Hubbers’
fourth-place margin to six full
games.
The Hubbers, after trailing the
first four innings, scored three runs
in the fifth frame to take a lead
they never relinquished as Haskins
went on to notch his first victory
for Lubbock and his ninth of the
season.
BASEBALL
SCORES
Fred Fazzio was nicked for 12
safeties over the route to get cred-
it for his eighth loss after compil-
ing 10 victories.

victory of the West Texas-New

pitched Albuquerque to an 8-2 vic-

ond place Amarillo, which rallied
in the ninth to defeat Clovis, 15-13.
Pampa went 12 innings before
edging Lamesa, 13-12.

OLYMPIC STADIUM, Wembley.
England, July 31. (A)—The United
States still may win the Olympic
Games track and field unofficial
championship—but it won’t be
easy
The exuberant over-confidence of
the past week faded today under
the hard blows dealt in the high
jump-an event America hoped to
sweep.
Even as the Red, White, and
Blue dropped, there began to
emerge the possible great hero of
the 1948 games. He is Emil Zato-
pek of Czechoslovakia, the
strangest, strongest, wildest, most
anguished distance runner ever
seen.
Suffering with every step, Zato-
pek won the 10,000 meters yester-
day in 29:39.6, s new Olympic rec-
ord. The commotion be set up
helped screen the embarrassment
of the American high jumpers who
bowed to John Winter of Aus-
tralia at the ignominious height
of 8 feet 6 inches.
RIS EQUALS RECORD
Here’s how Americans fared in
other sports on the first day of
competition:
Swimming—Wally Ris of ths Un-
iversity of lows equalled the 100
meter record of 57.5 in his pre-
-liminary heat. Keith Carter of Pur-
due defeated favored Alex Jany of
France in a 57 6 heat but both
qualified for today’s final as did
Alan Ford of Yale. After four com-
pulsory dives, Bruce Harlan of
Ohio, was first in springboard div-
ing with Dr. Sammy Lee of Pasa-
dena, Calif., second. Joaquin Cap-
illa of Mexico was third and Mill-
er Anderson, Ohio State, fourth.
Ann Curtis of San Francisco won
her 100-meter free style host and
Brenda Helser of Los Angeles won
third in hers. The American
women breaststrokers were elim-
inated in the pre iminaries.
Basketball — The United States
overwhelmed Switzerland, 86-21.
Water polo —The U. 8. blanked
Uruguay, 7-0, in first round compe-
tition.
Fencing—The men’s foils team
reached the semi-finals by detest-
ing Canada snd Switzerland.
Pentathlon-Maj. G. B. Moore of
the U. S. Army finished second to
Capt. William Grut of Sweden in
the 5.800 meter cross-country ride.
Wrestling—Four Americans won
and two lost. Bantamweight Ger-
aid Leeman Cedar Falls, la., won
with a fall. Flyweight William
Jernigan. Tulsa, Okla.; Welter-
weight Leland G. Merrill, Jr., Mill-
town, N. J., and light heavyweight
Henry Wittenberg, New York, won
on decisions which count one point
against them Heavyweight Rich-
and Hutton, Oakhurst, Okla., lost
on a decision, counting two points
against him and Lightweight Will-
ism Koll, Iowa State Teachers, lost
on a fall, three points against him.
JUMPERS DEJECTED
The American high jumpers
were a dejected lot last night.
My takeoffs were not up to
snuff,” said George Stanich of
U. C. L. A. who did 8 feet 8%
inches in the Olympic tryouts.
Dwight Eddlemsn of the Uni-
versity of Illinois, who did 6-7% in
the tryouts, said afterwards he
twice cleared the bar by two inch-
es at the winning height but land-
ed squarely on it.
Vern McGrew, 18. of Rice, who
also did 6-8 in the tryouts said
his legs didn’t have it yesterday.
But friends revested there were
other factors that hurt the jump-
ers. The Olympic pits are level
with the takeoff instead of piled
up a foot high—a psychological
hazard. Also the uprights are only
12 feet apart instead of the Amer-
ican 14, and the cross bar is held
on internal pegs instead of resting
on top of the uprights.
But Barney Ewell, Mel Patton,
and Harrison Dillard all came
through the first two rounds of 100
meter bests smoothly. And Roy
Cochrsn, the scientific rolling-
hipped 400 meter hurdler from In-
dians and now on the faculty of
the University of Southern Califor-
nia, matched e new Olympic rec-
ord in the semi-finals of his event
at 151.9 That was the same time
made by Rune Larsson of Swed-
en in winning the other semi-final
The old record was 1:52,0 made by
Glenn Hardin of the U. S. in 1932.

^ED SOX ADVANCE
Joe McCarthy Keeps ‘Injun
Sign' on Vanishing Tribe
By JACK HAND
Associated Frees Sports Writer
Joe McCarthy seems to have the
"Injun sign" on the fast-vanishing
Tribe from Cleveland.
Ever since Marse Joe’s Boston
Red Sox started to play up to their
pre-season billing, they have found
a real patsy in the Indians from
Ohio.
Eight victories in their Inst eight
games with Lou Boudresu’s gang
have served to elevate the Red
Sox to the top and drop the Indians
to third place. Even when they
score six runs in the first inning-
ss they did last night—Cleveland
still can’t whip Boston.
Denny Galehouse hurled brilliant
relief ball against Cleveland, al-
lowing only two hits in an 8 2-3-inn-
Ing stint and winning by a 8-7
score.
It wet a big win for the Red Sox
because Philadelphia and New
York also lost. As a result their
margin over the A s now is a game
and a half.
To say Philadelphia lost is put-
ting it mildly for they were better-
ed by Detroit, 17-2, in the Tigers’
biggest scoring spree of the season.
Three of the 17 hits were homers
by George, Vico, Vic Werts and
George Kell. Kell hit his with the
bases loaded.
