Braves' Star Hurler Loses Eighth Tilt N«*w York.

Sain at this time in IMS had a record of s and 4 today it is the; exact opposite, an unimpressive 4 and 8. Spahn has carried his share of the load ami is 8-6 as a-J gainst 5-4 at this time in 1948 but Sain just can't get going. Yesterday he lost his fourth straight game and started his seventh straight in which he failed to finish as a winner, being knocked out by the Cubs at Chicago who| won an 8 to 4 decision He was touched for nine hits, five of them for extra bases. Andy Paso hit a three run homer and Hal Jeffcoat got his first round tripper of the season with none aboard Belief pitcher Bob Chipman worked five Innings to gain his fourth victory.

<* 0 Today's Sport Parade By Oscar Fraley (Reg. U. S. Pat. Off.) 0 ——< Chicago, June 22. — (UP) — Will Harridge, president of the American League, asserted today that the "most remarkable develop ment" in basebaii since the war has beeu the tremendous increase of public interest in the annual all-star game. Harridge lean, gray-haired and bespectacled is a very conservative man. He has been connected with the junior circuit for 38 years and president of it for 18. He has learned.to avoid superlatives as if they were double-play pitches. Nevertheless, his enthusiasm was unbounded today when an interviewer mentioned the approaching all-star classic at Ebbets Field, Brooklyn, on July 12. As an indication of the fans’ torrid interest in tbe mid season ex Proxy Wil) predicted that the most popular player on either squad this year would receive more than 2,000.000 votes in the poll now being conducted by 622 newspapers and radio stations The Chicago Tribune tabulates the votes daily, laist year Ted Williams of the Red Sox received 1.566.784 votes. Although that was a record. Harridge was confident that mounting interest would add 500,000 to this season’s top man. Williams may repeat this year, for the Boston outfielder now heads both circuits with more than 200,000 votes The poll, which opened June 10. will close June 29. Heaviest voting usually occurs in the closing stages. In the poll the fans vote for the starting line-ups that should represent each league in the ail-star game. They do not vote for the pitchers. Each starter plays three innings The manager of each squad picks the rest of his men. usually according to the number of votes they received, and he uses his own judgnien* on pitchers. Ix>u Boudreau ftf the Indiana manages this year’s American l.eague squad, and Billy Southworth of the Braves pilots the National circuit forces. Although the all-star game was frowned upon by the owner* when it was first played in 1933, it now commands enthusiasm of owners, players and fans. Harridge emphasized. inquiries are now pouring into American league headquarters at Chicago and National league headquarters at New York regarding where and how to purchase tickets to the Brooklyn game. The Inquiries come from fans in every state and from Canada and Hawaii and Cuba. "Please let the fans know that the Brooklyn ball club has charge of tickets." Harrigan requested. SUPREME COURT Fr<»m Paire G'»e> an objection. Frankfurter turned to the judge and said: ••While you’re ruling I may say I'm willing to answer any of these questions." Before the testimony of the two justice*. Stryker read a deposition taken from Cov. Adlai Stevenson of Illinois sttesting that Hiss's reputation was good Stevenson said that he had known Hiss since 1933, when they both were AAA lawyer*, and had had frequen’ contacts with him since. Stevenson was attached to the U. S. dele gation attending the 1945 San Francisco United Nations organizational conference, of which His* ws* genera! secretary. Hiss Is. being tried on a twocount federal perjury indictment charging he lied when he testified that he never had turned over state department secrets to Chambers in 1937-38 and never had see Chambers after Jan. 1, 1937. PROPOSAL REJECTED front. From Page «x.*> the strike began. "The company, in accepting governor schricker'* proposal had agreed to many compromises.” he said. "It bad agreed only because of an earnest desire to end tht strike and resaltant damage to the company, it* people, its customers and tbe community." In Colorado Springs where he is attending the national governors’ conference, Schricker said be was deeply disappointed " He said ba had "hoped to be able to restore peace and put the man back u> . work " Negotiations, however, will be resumed under federal sponsorship Thursday.
