Hard Hitting Marks Major League Tilts New York, May 19.—(VP)-It was “grand slam” night in the major leagues. The hitters, who have had to take a lot of hack talk from the pitchers this season, finally rose up on their haunches and did something about it. The biggest job of the night was performed by Luis Olmo, the “Peltin’ Puerta Rican,” who batted in seven Brooklyn’s runs in a wild 15 to 12 victory over the visiting Chicago Cubs. In addition to his "grand slam” homer, he got a ‘Tittle slam” triple to score three more runs. Vernon (.Junior) Stephens, who led the American league in runs batted in last year with 105, made, healthy progress in that direction again with his four-run homer which gave the Browns a 4 to 1 victory over the New York Yun-’ kees at St. Louis. The Browns, who won a lot of games on a small ration of hits in gaining the American league pennant in 1944, were up to their old tricks, beating Hank BOrowy on just four. Old Jimmy Foxx hit his grand slant homer in vain for the Phils, who yielded four runs in''the ninth to give the visiting St. Louis Cards an 11 to 8 victory. Fox was the taajor figure in a Phi) six-run eighth inning. Relief pitcher Ken Burkhardt gained the victory. Rookie Dave Ferriss of the Boston Red Sox, making the most auspicious beginning of any major league pitcher since Bobby Feller broke in with the Cleveland Indians. won his third shutout in four victories, blanking the Chicago White Sox, 2to 0. He gave up only four hits and no Chicago runner got past second. Pittsburgh at New York and Cincinnati at Boston were rained out in the National and Washington at Detroit and Philadelphia at Cleveland were postponed in the American. Yesterday’s star: Luis Olmo of the Brooklyn Dodgers, who hit a grand slam homer, a little slam triple and a double to drive in seven runs in a 15 to 12 victory over thv* ('ubs. 0 Day Os Recollection For Men Os Parish -1 • ... fßev.
