Jackets Whip Berne Friday By 14-2 Score Blasting out 11 hits, including three doubles, the Decatur Yellow Jackets walloped the Berne Bears. 14-2, at Worthman field Friday afternoon. The game was originally scheduled for the Berne diamond, but was changed to Worthman field when the Berne field was too wet for play. The Jackets sewed up the game in a wild third inning, when eight runs scored although Decatur made only three hits, Kenny Grant contributed two safeties in the big frame, opening the inning with a single and blasting out a double on his second trip. Dick Ogg obtained Decatur’s other blow in the frame, while the Bears made all their five errors in the inning, and two walks were also contributed. The Jackets had picked up three runs in the second frame on singles by Wefel, Jennings and Plumley and a two-base knock by Thomas. Decatur scored a single tally in the fourth and wound up with two in the fifth on three hits. The Bears scored both their runs in the Sixth on a walk, Winteregg’s single and Ted Lehman's double. Bohnke, Decatur hurler, held Berne to four hits and fanned seven batters. The Yellow Jackets will play the Bears at Berne Tuesday.

Yankees Only Unbeaten Team In Big leagues New York, April 23 - (UP) - . ■ They said the Yankees would col- : lapse without Joe Dimaggio, but : there were up in first place today : as the only unbeaten team left In i the majors minus not only Dimag- : gio but Charley Keller. George : Stirnweiss, and Bob Porterfield. Just how long it will last nobody : knows and part of their perfect : 1-0 record may stem from the fact ■ they heat the wishy-washy Washington Senators three times. But it can’t be denied that no other Yankee team has gotten off to such ; a flying start since 1945 and nobody could laugh off yesterday's stirring 5 to 3 victory over the pen-nant-favored Red Sox in Boston where they are hard to beat. Yesterday, as in each of the other Yankee triumphs, it was stout t pitching that pulled them through. I This time Allie Reynolds not only * held the Red Sox to seven hits, but rlso drove in the two runs that provided the margin of victory with a single in the sixth. Reynolds, however, was the first Yankee hurler who needed relief but Joe Page was in old time form and finished up with three hitless innings. While outfielders Dimaggio and i Keller and second baseman Stirnweiss remained sidelined along I with pitcher Porterfield, manager I i Casey Stengel’s rookies continued to fill in ably. He used four yesterday, Gerry Coleman and Dick Kryhoski getting two' hits apiece. Hank Bauer and Gene Woodling divide left field duty and performed ably. Mickey Vernon gave the Indians their third victory in four starts when he singled home the winning run in the 10th inning in 4 to 3 decision over the Tigers at Cleveland. Gene Bearden, last year’s rookie ace, won his first game, giving up six hits. Joe Gordon drove in three runs with two hits and manager Lou Boudreau also got a pair. The White Sox cashed in on a four-run inning highlighted by rookie Gus Zernlal’s terrific homer to, defeat the Browns, 5 to 2 at Chic-1 ago as Chick Pieretti. with relief help from Bill Wight, won his first start. ‘ , The Philadelphia A’s won their night game as righthander Carl Scheib set down the Senators, 2 to USED CARS ' 1947 CHEVROLET TUDOR, like new 1947 FORD TUDOR new rebuilt motor 1940 CHEVROLET TUDOR 1939 FORD TUDOR . 1938 FORD TUDOR 1937 DE SOTO 1937 CHEVROLET 1934 PLYMOUTH COUPE DICK MANSFIELD MOTOR SALES Decatur, Ind.
