\ Jim Konstanty Beats Pirates On Two-Hitter ■ NEW YORK, UP — Jim Konstanty, Philadelphia's “forgotten man,’’ suddenly was being remeihbered again today as a fellow’ who ■might put depth back -into the WhiHies'L pitching stfeff. Konstanty came out of the obscurity of mediocre mop-up pitchgrs in 1950 to win the National league’s most valuable /player award as an almost unbeatable relief hurler. But he returned to the doldrums after that one wonderful season. > j Now. almost unnoticed, he became the victor in a two-hit. 5-3 decision over the Pirates 1 Friday night. Konstanty turned in the fifth straight complete game by Steve O’Neill’s staff and gained the fifth victory in a row for the new National league front- runneYs. ' . A/. . ■’ Konstanty retired 18 men in a , row but lost his no-hftter and shutout at once with two out in the seventh -when Paul Smith singled after the Philly right hander Had hit a batsman and yielded a walk_ Dick Cole ’ doubled in another run in the eighth and subse- ! riuently scored on an outfield fly: Del Ennis-hit a two-run hoiner while Gran Hamner-? doubled 4n two other runs for the Phils. j

Jimmy Carter Whips Collins In 4th Round 'BOSTON, UP—The refe *ee did .not consider that challenger Tommy Collins was in "se ions (trouble" champion Jimtny Carter knocked\hin, down times in the tjiird round — apd that's why the slaughter lasted into the fourth. Friday night's fourth- - round “technical knockout’’ after three more knockdowns was a misnomer.' A knockout it was and all 12.477 Boston Garden customers knew it, but. by this time, fleferee Tommy itawson had changed his mind. ." 1 \. ' - “I didn't count him out in fourth because .1 was afraid he would get back up and try to continue fighting," Rawson said. “It will go in tlje books' as a technical knockout because—Collins didn't receive any count. The only thing I could do wak turn around and award the ,bout to Carter on a TlyO.Y , Boston’s own CoJlins was lying limp under the ropes, his feet drawn up slightly but with no sign of life about him. At 133%' he was outweighed by a scant % of a pound by the New York champion. . I ' \ — Rawson explained that "Because I know Tommy's amazing recuperative 'powers, f didn’t stop the fight in the third round. “Hfc didn’t seem to\me to be in really serious trouble — no more serious thanMie has -been in a lot of other fights. . Each time when he got up. he was a little dazed but I not really in bad shape. “His cornei 1 agreed with me thatj I was right in letting the fight go on. After all, you know, it was for the world championship anil you don’t like, to stop those if there is any chance of a man coming hack.” In the third round. Carter landed a right to Collins', jaw; at TO seconds and Collins staggered, .then collapsed on the canvas. Six more times, the close-knit Negro flashed his right to the chin qf the slim Irishman and Collins went down—only to plunge back in-with both hands going. : The big one came; along qu|ickly as Collins stepped out in the fourth, his eye blood-smeared from a cut. and walked into the same right hand. He fell once, got up and staggered around to his corner wheife he fell again. When Carter came in and felled him for the 10th time. Collins ' (ouldpjt summon the? strength to come back; . . , : ‘ ■ MAJOR \\ national League W_L Pct. G.B.
