NEW YORK, April 18 (U. P. named Hal Newhouser, baseball's

Just as happy today if the season could have started without an

opening day. :

Newhouser, fhe Detroit ace, using that same old left-handed magic

that has brought him 80 victories the Browns at St. Louis, 7 to 0, on four hits. It was his 13th straight victory over the Browns and was achieved with a minimum of effort after his mates gave him a 5-t0-0 lead in the second inning. He struck out five and only one Brownie, Vern Stephens, got an extra base hit, a double,

But just look what happened to the other major league hurlers who won 20 qr more games last season. There were seven and all but one of them, Dave Ferriss of the Red Box, drew an opening day assignment. And except for Newhouser, all were batted out before the finish,

Sox Lefty Shines At _Clevélald, an all-time record major league opening day crowd of | 55,014 turned out, hoping to see Bobby Feller duplicate his 1940 feet, pitching" a no-hit, no-run game Rgainst the Chicago White Sox. Instead they saw Eddie Lopat, a ittle lefty, pitch Chicago to a 2-to-0 victory in which Feller wasn't Rround at the finish. Lopat gave while Feller yielded ne, ' At Boston, the American league Ehampion Red. Sox topped Wash. Ington, 7 to 6, but it wasn't 20game winner Tex Hughson who got the job done. Hughson was a five-

in the last three seasons, shut out

out in a three-run seventh inning drive by the Athletics, who got all their runs off his pitching. Phil Marchildon gave up only six hits for the A's, going the route. ‘Pollet Is Loser Young Ewell Blackwell of the Reds mastered last year's top National league winner, Howie Pollet, a 2l-game victor, at Cincinnati when he beat the world champion

8t. Louis Cardinals, 3 to 1, on three hits. He had a one-hit shutout until the ninth with Pollet getting the only Cardinal hit up to that time. Eddie Miller, who thought of quitting this spring because he was “washed up,” hit a homer and seored--another—-run—for-theRéds after drawing a walk. The Brooklyn Dodgers took care of the National's other 20-game winner, Johnny Sain, at Ebbets field when they came from behind to score a 5 to 3 victory on Pete Reiser's two-run seventh inning double that sparked a three-run rally. Relief Pitcher Hal Gregg was the victor, taking over for Lefty Joe Hatten after the sixth. Hank Bats in Only. Run
