to do,',! said Bocchichio. "We want
to see him make the moves that
we have worked on since the last

Rookie first baseman Don Boll
weg, a St. Louis Cardinal castoff,
nailed down a regular job yester
day as• he led the New York
Yankes to a 9-4 uphill victory ov
er the Cleveland Indians. Eddie
Lopat won.
The 21-year-old Bollwe g,
playing his fifth straight game
at first• base, starred both at
bat and in the field as the Yan
kees overcame a 4-0 deficit with
, three runs in the fourth inning .
and four in the seventh. They
added two more in the eighth
for good measure.

Bollweg played a prominent
role in all three scoring innings.
He drove out a home run with two
mates aboard and two out off
Mike Garcia in the fourth to pro
duce the first Yankee runs.
His single in the seventh
ig
nited the four-run rally that
shelled Garcia from the mound
and led to his second defeat
against two triumphs. In the
eighth, after Mickey Mantle had
opened with a single, he laid
down a neat sacrifice to put the
runner in scoring position.
Righthander veteran Mary
Grissom retaliated against his for-
mer Chicago White Sox team-
Imates by limiting them to four
hits as he hurled the Boston Red
Sox to a 3-0 shutout.
Last week in Chicago, the
White Sox chased Grissom af
ter three innings. Grissom to
day retired the first 14 White
Sox in order and held them un
der the tightest sort of rein un
til the eighth.
The Red Sox triumphed at the
expense of their discaided Joe
Dobson, who gave up five hits and
two runs before being replaced
by Sandy Consuegra with none
out in the fifth inning. The lat
ter was slammed for a homer by
Milt Bolling in the sixth.
The Milwaukee Braves par
layed a four-hit relief job by
Lew Burdette and a 14-hit at
tack on three New York pitch
ers into an 11-1 victory and
second place in the National
League before a chilly crowd of
9043 which watched the slaugh
ter in 49 degree temperatures.
The lone Giant .run was scored
in the eighth inning on Monte
Irvin's single, a passed ball and a
pair of outfield flies.
The Braves unlimbered with
two first-inning home runs to
saddle Dave Koslo with his
third straight loss, and teed off
in earnest against Hoyt Wil
helm in the seventh. Frank Hil
ler finished for the Giants.
The Chicago White Sox op
tioned pitcher Connie Johnson
and first baseman Bob Boyd to
The
Charleston of the American As
sociation on 24-hour recall.
The St. Louis Cardinals asked
waivers on third baseman Billy
Johnson as they moved to cut
their roster to their 25-man lim
it.
Johnson, a one-time New York
Yanke, is a 10-year man and will
be given his unconditional re
lease.
Lion Nine Plays
3 Road Games
This Weekend
Joe Bedenk's baseball crew
will begin the final leg of battle
for District Two honors this
weekend when it travels to Ham
ilton and Syracuse, N.Y. for a
three game series with Colgate
and Syracuse: The Lions have a
9-3-1 lark.
Only six games remain on the
1953 schedule—all of them away
—and four of these are against
district teams. The outcome of
these' should tell the tale. If the
Bedenkmen can' return from a
successful road trip this weekend
and stop Temple May 23 at Phil
adelphia, the championship can
still be salvaged. The other two
games will be played Wednesday
against West Virginia.
A sound pitching corps gives
the Nittanies their brightest out
look. Gar Gingerich and Keith
Vesling, two sturdy right hand
ers, have handled opposition with
ease this season. Gingerich has. a
3 7 1 record, and Vesling has a 5-2
mark. Jack Krumrine and Larry
Bayer, also righties, will be
around to take care of any needed
relief work.
District title will be determined
May 25 when a committee of
coaches, including Bedenk, will
meet in Hamilton, N.Y. to decide
the- winner. Possibilities loom
now for another playoff similar
to the one last year. The Lions
won that one and a chance to
play in the "Little World Series"
in Omaha, 'Neb.
