: inning, swung and missed, appar- ' enfly assuring the big, blond Polish

pitcher of the Yanks, Hank Borowy, entrance to the hall of fame with a no-hitter. Borowy walked down from the mound thinking he had registered a no-hitter. His mates thought so. Likewise the fans. them streamed out onto the fleld to congratulate Borowy. He had to be rescued from the back-slappers. . Then, in the midst of this enthusiastic demonstration, the :official totals appeared on the scoreboard, with the figures 0-1-2 showing in the St. Louis slots—the official scorer had credited one hit to the Browns, the only man in the stadium who had.

Scored As Hit

Hundreds off

There was a murmur of disbelief|

and disapproval. Brigades of fans swarmed to the press box and shouted vituperations at the official scorer, who had judged a skittery grounder that bounced off Joe Gordon’s glove in the first inning as a hit instead of an error. Joe Gordon knocked it down and tossed to Buddy Hassett, at first, but Harlan Clift was safe. The official scorer notified the press section that it was a hit. Everyone else thought it was & Gordon error. In the dressing room afterwards, Borowy said: “Sure, I thought I had a no-hitter, and the whole team thought so. That's why the infield tightened up the way it did.” And Gordon admitted, “I should have got it. It probably was an error. But it was coming awfully fast, and I won't criticize the official scorer.”

It was one of those baseball tragedies in which the scorer may

The state tennis tournament now being played here may be the last for Roger Downs, left, and Ray Von Spreckelson, one of the tourney’s highly-rated doubles team. They completed enlistment in Class V-5, the navy’s aviation program before tournament play began and will be on their way toward becoming navy pilots by next year.

It was just by luck that I discovered my dipper. ball—~the delivery that gave me a chance against lefthanded hitting.” # Borowy is a right-handed pitcher.

Hence it was that on May 5, 1942,

On Fight Card

Big Hank relieved Johnny Lindell}"

in the first inning against the White Sox.. Bill Dickey, veteran catcher of the Yanks, told him to keep'the ball low and on the inside for lefties. To keep within this area, Borowy pitched with a twist of his wrist— just something happened all of a sudden--and discovered that the ball was dipping in and away from the southpaws. And they weren't hitting it. He was throwing a lightning fast sinker that dropped and faded away from the batsman—the “dipper. ball.” Since that accidental ‘discovery -Borowy has been using the “dipper” against all portside swatters, and he has gone to town. Whether or not the official ,scorer was right yesterday no one knows for sure. Most men in the press section say he was. But, anyway, the resulting disagreement made Big Hank a hero in New York, at least, and has attentioned the rest of the majors to the fact that here is a robust candidate for “the rookie of the

year.”

Henrich Arrives At Buffalo Base

: BUFFALO, N. Y,, Sept. 3 (U. P.). Tommy Henrich, former New York Yankee outfielder, began his duties today at the Buffalo coast guard base. Henrich arrived last night as a ist, first class, reporting to Chief Boatswain's Mate Hugh M.

Namely, to follow orders,”

Heinrich said, adding that “leaving -the Yankees and Manager Joe Mc- |=!

Carthy after six years was ke leaving home.”
