Bosox Rookie Knocks Yanks Out Os Lead ’ _New - York, Sept. 6(UP)j—A little fish the Yankees oncfe failed /to hook used his own big left--handed hook to make the. American league pennant race a few degrees hotter today. The hook specialist wab lefty, - Leo Kiely, a ‘SLyear-old rookie' from Hoboken, N; J„ Who astounded everyone in sight* by pitching the Red Sox .to a t to ? victory over the Yankees. It was especially appalling to ft l6 Yankees because he bested ace right hander? Vic Raschi, and because he knocked them out of first place. • Kiely, who came right out pi Yankee territory and whs generally overldoked, pitched a strong seven-hittef and had a shutout cooking until the Yankees tagged him for two runs in the eighth. IdBJ was well supported by an 11-hi|j Boston attack that included a | homer and single by Ted Williainsf, < and; ’ two hits apiece by Bobby Poerf, Billy Joodman. - Charley 'Maxwell. Rosar. / The Indians moved back into first place a fdll-gatne ahead <»f the Yankees and four games ahead of Boston* with a 5.t0 2 victory over the Tigers. Homers by Al Rosen and Luke Easter acountei for four runs and f Early Wynd needed no nfore backing to record his 17th victory. Cleveland now’ has won 16 gam’hs in 17 starts with Detroit this year. - . Elsewhere in the American! league; the Athletics topped the ’ Senators 1 to 1 and 9 to 7, to’dis-1 place them in sixth place as firsit j Sam Zoldak, then . reliever Bob Hooper scored impressive tri* umphs. Kerris Fain made six hits to boost his\ league lead to .341. The Browns and White | Sox -were rained out. The Giants picked up half a game in their pursuit of the Dodgers by whipping the IJraveS in Boston. 3 to 2, 4>ehind Sheldon Jones, and 9 to 1, with Sal Mag He. The Dodgers had. their lead reduced to 5V6 games, even thbugh they won, 5 to 2, from the Phillies.

Worthman Field Lighting Is Among Best In State

To most people paper plates and the lighting system at Worthman field hgve in common, yet it is these same paper plates that play such an integral part of mak-, ing thd lighting a success. Fbr it Js by sighting the individual lights—and therejare now 120 of them at the the paper plates that are strewn Systematically on the ground that a definite lighting pattein Is achieved. Nothing in the lighting systeih is left to chance. This was discerned after a,talk with Harry Claffey, Jr., and Bob Hannum, both of the Gen* eral Electric* Supply\ Corporation, of Indianapolis, who were suppliers for the project. . According to Claffey, Wqrthmdn field will now be one of the "few best lighted high school athletic fields In the state.’’ Off-hand, he could think of not more than a couple that could equal it, and nfrtiW that surpasses It. This Is a far cry from previous years Iwhen a pair of binoculars and striking matches sometimes aided the spectator in seeing a few f<et tn front of his face, let alone much of what was going on in the Heidi ! Now there will be 180,000 ktllo* watts of light thrown on the field; all of it evenly distributed to eliminate shadow, and much of it due to the Use of paper plates. j’he plates aren’t just thrown in* distjriminately over the field. Thes are placed there from a scale modol of the fieid which Claffey had with him. The sis Id was completely plotted, and points designating where each plate should be were marked. A man climbs into the tower (therfe are eight 90 foot towers at the field pow. each with 15 lights) and takes aim with that light to a particular plate. Eiwh light has a sight on it similar to a rifle’s, and the tower mah has only to “shoot” a paper plate. ... ? i kV I Jr !—r«S» K, / i . ■ 1 ‘L IT ■ pl ■ 'l3 ' 3% f ; ■ : Mr l j s,< I x.iz- J B ' ■ 1 A MANSLAUGHTER charges face Maurice Malillet, 40 (above), a miliei of Pont Saint-Esprit, France, on his connection with- the ’’bread madness” which took four lives and sent 35 other persons to hospitals with violent hallucinations.

. Why paper plates? This enables the installers of the lights to complete the adjustments in the daytime. Heretofore it was necessary to tlo the work at night-r-to alm on ] a man who would stand in a par- ! tlcylar place. 1 * Not only is this present method 1 quicker, it Is just as effective. 1 Claffey that a field like Worth- ’ than could be “spotted” in a day. ] , Worthman sh Id will now he ( three times m6re intensely lighted than for football and baseball games. Indeed, mulch of the eqncehtrhtion of the lights, is for the baseball diamond, to illuminate - the infield and assure outfielders of I "seeing the ball.” a Os course, much of this lighting I laps over onto the football field, I and adds to the density there. The lights are shatterproof, Claf- I fey explained. When (broken they I > burst into “small, pebbly pieces,” 1 eliminating the dangers of being I cut. They are ihe same type of I lights instated in Yanklee Stadium: I there areh’t quite as ( how- j ever. The lighting at Worthman eta- I (Hum, to be enjoyed for the first time at Friday’s game, is a major project of the Decatur public school system. I t is alsoi completed through the assistance of the city and private contractors, all of whom (have worked diligently to feady the field. \ I It H also the worh 6f the late ] WalteV J. Krick, who planned the project and worked tirelessly for , It; It Was left to present superini tendent VW Guy ftrown to finish. And the combination of all these ► things—including the paper plates • --means the field will be intensely I illumined for the season's first football game. It will also be available for a lot ot! future fodtball and base- ■?; ball games. Because it was not i only constructed for lighting—it 1 was built for endurance. rm ' smm Every Friday Ni|.ht CLEM’S • LAKE TTade tn ft Good Town — oecelur
