Practice Stiffens,

“Boys Separated”

Coaches Bob Worthman and Jerry Leitz have stiffened up the two-a-day drills they have been running the football team through, and as Worthman states it, “we arc now beginning to separate the men from the boys." Three or four boys have turned in their suits in the last two days and Worthman knows that the boys who don’t want to play are being separated from the that do, because of the stepup in drills. Scrimmaged Today Worthman ran the boys through a light scrimmage this morning and some of the boys are showing that they really want to play the game this year. The defense loosed rough and they are big and well-built, but one thing that must be remembered is that the teams they run up against will be a 10l tougher ttyan their own teammates they are .playing against now. Max Eichenauer looked good in the” quafefback slot this. morning while running the offensive team against what will probably bo-the defensive eleven. Herb Magley and Tom Sharpe showed a lot of hustle on that defensive eleven. Sharpe is big and strong and if he and Magley keep up that hustle and desire they could really * turn the defensive team into a “brick wall”. Cowan Hustles The two teams switched around just before the end of the scrimmage session and Johnny Cowan showed what this reporter has been saying all week long. That if John keeps up the determination he has shown so fas. and keeps working hard, he could very easily develop into a great quaterback. Cowan is learning the fakes and handoffs wonderfully and he has a fine arm. He also has shown a lot of long-distance punting, and looks to be the teams' puhter this year: Drills will. continue this after noon at 4 o'clock.

No - Hitter Leaves Lew Speechless

United Press International MILWAUKEE (UPD—Lew Burdette. the guy with the ever-pres-ent quip and wise crack, knows today what it takas to leave him stunned and speechless—his first no-hitter. The 33-y ea r-old righthander from Nitro. W. Va., circled aimlessly and bumped into people in the Milwaukee Braves dressing room after stopping the Philadelphia Phillies, 1-0, Thursday night. "I never thought I’d ever do it,” he repeated again and again. But soon he was the old irrepressible Burdette again. When did he first think about pitching a no-hitter? “Right _yvith the first pitch.” And then with a jab at Braves’ treasurer Fran Leary, “be sure to make those checks bigger from now on.” Near Perfect Game Burdertte came within just one batter of hurling a perfect game. He faced only the minimum of 27 men, but he hit center fielder Tony Gonzalez with a 1-1 pitch in the fifth inning. Gonzalez becameu-the onlyJttaladelphia baserunner of the game, but he was erased immediately in an unusual doubleplay. The next

Among the better-known basebatt personalities who will be appearing in the tourney will be veteran Leroy (Satchel) Paige, who has been signed on as a pitcher for the Whicita, Kan., Weller Indians.

batter, Lee Walls, grounded out third to first, and Gonzalez was out trying to go all the way to third on a relay back to Johnny Logan covering the bag. Serious for just a moment again, Burdette compared the thrill of his nobitter with winning three games against the New York Yankees in the 1957 World Series. ■ “I rank this right up there with those,” he said. Nice Hitting. Too Standing right next to him, Warren Spahn —a veteran who has had 10 20-victory seasons without a nohitter — said: “The hell with your pitching. It was the hitting that did it;” Spahn referred to Burdette's second hit of the night, a double down the left field line to open the-, eighth inning. Billy Bruton followed with another double over the first base bag off losing pitcher Gene Conley to score Burdette with .the winning run. It was the second nO-hitter of this season. Don Cardwell pitched one for the Cubs against the Cardinals on May 15. It was also the first nine-inning no-hitter by a Brave pitcher since Jim Wilson pitched one against the Phillies on June 12, 1954. The spectacular performance recalled the night of May 26, 1959, when Pittsburgh’* Harvey Haddix pitched 12 perfect innings at County Stadium, only to lose, 1-6, in the 13th and ironically— to Burdette. Burdette said he was worried about every one of the Phil’s batters. “I told npyself at the start of the ninth Inning. ‘You dumb guy -this could never hapjxm to you.’ ” But Burdette was wrong, it did.

Burdette Hurls No-Hitter; Law Wins Game No. 18

United Press International The Milwaukee Braves hope that Lew Burdette's near-perfect nodiitter can fan a flickering spark into a blazing pennant drive. Burdette, who “never thought I’d ever do it,” missed the National League's first modern perfect game Thursday night when he hit Tony Gonzalez in the fifth inning as the Braves scored a 1-0 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies; The 33-year-old righthander from Nitro, W.Va., faced the minimum nuber of 27 batters, however, when Gonzalez was erased in a double play. Whether Burdette's brilliant performance can mobilize Milwaukee into overhauling Pittsburgh's 7>4 game lead depends on how the Braves react to the team’s first no-hitter since Jim Wilson turned the trick in 1954. Could Rival *sl Giants If they do come back, it would rival the greatest recovery since the 1951 Giants trailed by 13*4t fames in early August and went on to beat the Dodgers in a playoff series for the National League pennant. Burdette, the hero of the 1957 World Series when .he won three games against the New York Yankees, took matters into his own hands to prevent a recurrence of Harvey Haddix’ extrainning no-hitter against the Braves last season that was lost on Joe Acock’s hit in the 13th. He doubled in the eighth inning and came home with his winning run on Billy Bruton’s two-base hit. The victory was Burdette’s 14th of the season against seven losses. Gene Conley suffered his 10th defeat for the Phils. Dick Stuart's pinch homer gave Pittsburgh a 3-2 victory over Cincinnati and Wally Moon’s 13th inning homer enabled Los Angeles to edge Chicago, 4-3, in the other National League games. The Yankees retained their 2\t game lead in the," American League by beating the Boston Red Sox, 11-7; Baltimore had an eight-rim third inning to defeat Washington, 10*8, and go into a

second place tie with Chicago as Cleveland topped the White Sox, 8-6, and Detroit downed Kansas (City, 11-6. Best .After Benching i Stuart, who appears at his best after a benching session, belted his 14th homer for Pittsburgh in the eighth inning to give Vernon Law his 18th win. Moon’s 12th uoiner of the season offset twp homers by rookie Ron Santo and one by Frank Thomas. Tommy Davis’ single stretched his hitting streak to 18 consecutive games, longest Dodger skein since 1956. The Yankees, who have won four of their last six games by one run, rallied for six runs in the last two innings. Yogi Berra drove in three runs with a pair of doubles and a single and Clete Boyer hammered a two-run homer for Baltimore clustered six of its nine hits in the third inning outburst. Jackie Brandt and Ron Hansen each drove in two runs with singles in the eight-run rally. Harvey Kuenn went 4-for-4 as Cleveland overcame a 6-1 Chicago lead by scoring five runs in the sixth inning and two more in the seventh. Ken Aspromonte highlighted the Indian sixth with a homer. Rocky Colavito, Al Kaline and Norm Cash each homered to lead Detroit’s 15-hit assault on three Detroit’s 15-hit assault on three Kansas Ci|y pitchers. Kaline slammed four hits and Chico Fernandez three as Bud Daley took his 11th loss and the Tigers won their sixth in the last eight games.
