Hughson's victory lust night wa« a royal job from any angle lie al lowed only three hits in taking the I to 0 game from Cleveland Feller allowed five Hughson •truck out nine; Feller seven.

The Bed Sox made their own breaks as they won. Bobby Doerr opened the second inning with a triple Rudy York, next up. fouled deep behind first base. Doerr streaked for home as the ball touched first baseman la-s Fleming's glove, and lam Boudreau, apparently unaware Doerr was run ning. cut off Fleming's desperate throw. New York fumbled away its game at Detroit. Four Yankee errors gave the Tigers their first four runs, and lefty Joe Page filled the bases on walks to set up the last two, which were classed as earned because Detroit drove them in with hits. Newhouser allowed four hits. Including a double by Charley Keller in the ninth, followed by Joe DiMaggio's homer. The ace Ja-fty fanned 10 batters, and was very fast as he overpowered the Yanks. Detroit now is only two games behind New York — 9’., behind Boston — and has played four less games than the Yanks. Cecil Travis singled with the bases filled in the ninth inning to give Washington a 4 to 2 victory over the St. Ixmls Browns. Gil Coan singled In the third run of the inning to assure Dutch lamnard

Indiana All-Stars * Beat Kentucky Five Indianapolis, June 22 —(UP) — If there were ever any doubts that “Jumping Johnny'* Wilson of Anderson ranks with the greatest of all Indiana high school basketball players. they were dispelled today after the llthe-limhed negro's performance in the all-star Kentucky Indiana game lest night. Dusky Johnny accounted for 27 points, 12 of them in the last quarter, as the Clean Curtis-coached Hoosiers came from behind late in the game to score a thrilling. 62-55 victory. It was the fifth triumph In six starts for the Hoosiers, who lost a 45-40 affair to kentucky a season ago. Upwards of 11,500 crowded the Indianapolis Coliseum to capacity. Proceeds went to chai By. In the early minutes of the last period It was still anybody's ball game. Gene Rhodes of IxniiaviUe Male had snatched away a thirdquarter Hoosier lead and made it 47-46. Kentucky, on a short set shot. Charley Fouty of Terre Haute State, a standout for Indiana, put the Hoosiers back in front. And llien Wilson turned into a wlll-’o-the-wisp to the two Kentucky players who had dogged him all the way.
The man who led Anderson to the 1945-46 Indiana state title batted a tip in. Seconds later he stole a pass and drove under to score. Then he hatted in two more buckets. A fast break, with Evansville Central’s Bob Kohlmeyer on the end. made it 58-51 In favor of Indiana before Wilson added four more points for good measure. Key man for the Kentuckians, who were tutored by Ed Dibble of Western Kentucky, was John "Sonny” Allen, a six foot two Inch guard who starred fag Kentucky's state champions, Morehead's Breckeniidge. Allen connected for 12 point*, mostly on short set shots, in the first half as Kentucky went In front, 29-25. and wound up with 20 — some seven less than Wilson. Bob Kohlmeyer of Evansville Central, who notched 15 points and was a bear on rebounds; Rill Butterfield of Evansville Bosse, another good rebound man; Jerry Stuteville of Attica. Fouty and Wilson played most o| the game for Indiana. Fort Wayne Central’s
