LOUIS, MONDAY, AUGUST 20, 1951 Caddie Moeller Shoots 71 In Practice at Columbus By Robert Morrison Of the Post-Dispatch Sports Staff. COLUMBUS, Aug. 20 Earl Moeller St. Louis caddie champion, was renewing an old acquaintance with the Ohio State U. golf course today, and it appeared to be the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Among mny novelties introduced by Bill Veeck as the Browns observed the American League's fiftieth birthday was a midget pinch-hitter. He went to the plate as a replacement for Frank Saucier in the first inning of the second game as the 18,369 paying crowd screamed, and drew a pass. The midget, who had never played baseball, was ED GAEDEL of Chicago. He was taken out of the game immediately after walking. Behind the plate is BOB SWIFT of the Tigers and ED HURLEY is the umpire.

How They Stand Lots of Frosting on Brownies' A.L. Birthday Cake, but Filling Turns Bitter With Two Defeats By Bob Broeg The austere American League, gravely celebrating its fiftieth anniversary this year, will reach the ripe old age of 100 before anyone other than Phineas T. Veeck, the Barnum of baseball, tops the colorful substitute for winning ball the sport-shirted showman winner or runner-up of a local tournament sponsored by a newspaper. The present plan is to increase the number of newspaper franchises next year. But, for this tournament, there is not a sufficient number to fill a 64-place draw, so each boy who plays in tomorrow's 36-hole qualifier is certain of a match play opportunity.

There will be five first-round championship flight byes. Another change this year is the $300 scholarship put up by the Canadian P.G.A. for medalist prize. The P.G.A. of the United States offers the $1500 and $750 scholarship prizes for the winner and runner-up.

Age range in the present field is from 13 to 17 years, and the winner in Saturday's 36-hole final will have the additional prize of a flight to New York for an appearance on the "Toast of the Town" television show Sunday. Moeller Watches Movies. St. Louis's entries were welj prepared in more ways than one. On the train ride here Saturday, they discovered that movies in the recreation car showed Cary Middlecoff in his recent All-American victory at Tan O'Shan-ter.

"Earl ran those movies over two or three times to watch Mid-dlecoff's putting stroke," said Parnell. Moeller also felt himself better equipped because the boys home club pro, Ray Schwartz at Norwood Hills, had loaned Earl his irons. They were heavier clubs than the set Moeller had been using and Earl said they seemed to work much better. As Starter Helps Win Twin Bill By a Staff Correspondent of the Post-Dispatch. CINCINNATI, Aug.

20 With Brooklyn's Dodgers having lost five of their last seven games to the four eastern teams of the National League, the Cardinals are heading east today hopeful of continuing the Flatbush team's skid, enough in the next 10 days to make the circuit's pennant chase a race instead of a runaway. Of the four western teams only the Cardinals have any prospects of overhauling the Dodgers and! their chances of doing so are extremely slim. But if they can slap them down Tuesday night and Wednesday and Thursday afternoons they could make things interesting. The Cardinals have plenty of scores to settle with the Dodgers for the way Chuck Dressen's team has manhandled them this season and now. despite the fact that they are down to seven pitchers for the time being and Country Slaughter is far from being at his physical best, they seem to be in good trim for the series at Eb- bets Field.

Brazle Starts and Finishes. The way the Cards played in winning a double-header from the Reds yesterday, 5-4 and 5-1, be fore 18,636 customers, especially in the second game when Alpha Brazle made his 1951 debut as a starter, gave the band Terry Moore is directing so capably in Marty Marion's absence high hopes of getting some revenge on the Dodgers. The Cards have won four out of five under Terry. Moore will send Gerry Staley after Tuesday night's game with Max Lanier a good bet to toe the slab in the second game and Harry Brecheen or Cliff Chambers in the third one. Having Brazle come through with a five-hit, one walk, six-strikeout performance in his initial start of the year was a real shot in the arm for the Red-birds.

In the first eight rounds Hank Edwards was the only Red to pass first base, doing so in the second when he hit a lengthy homer into the bleachers back of right center. Brazle appeared to be losing his grip when he walked Ted Kluszewski to start the ninth then hit Joe Adcock to make Kluszewski the second Red in the game to reach second base. But in this spot Brazle rared back and fanned Edwards for the second time in succession and then got the game over in a hurry by causing Bob Usher to ground into a double play. Red Schoendienst made quite a play in pivoting that final twin killing because Adock spilled him hard as he slid into the keystone sack. Except for a shaky start (he walked three in the first three rounds and four in the first four) and Virgil Stallcup's two-run homer in the ninth Chambers matched Brazel's pitching in effectiveness.

The Cards didn't have much trouble getting five runs in each game. Nippy Jones assaulted Kenny Raffensberger and Bud Byerly ably in the first game to drive in two runs with a single off Raffy in a four-run third and another with a homer off Byerly in the fifth. Hal in a Fox Chase. Hal Rice, missing from the first game's lineup, hit Howard Fox for singles each of his first three times up in the nightcap and drove in a run with each of his first two. Hal third hit off Fox helped get another run in the fifth, this one driven in by Peanuts Lowrey.

Schoendienst singled and scored from first when Stan Musial doubled in the seventh while in the eighth Lowrey banged a triple down the right-field line and jogged home when Jones followed with a hit which bounced away from Usher or a double. The Cards still are I6V2 games behind the Dodgers and seven and a half back of the Giants, but they haven't quit trying to overtake both. M.A.C.

20 (UP) A violent thunderstorm caused a 24-hour postponement in the finals of the national doubles tennis championships today and forced Australia to wait until tomorrow to annex its third consecutive U.S. men's title. Top-seeded Australians Frank Sedgman and Ken McGregor had been scheduled to face the No. 2 Aussie team of Mervyn Rose and Don Candy for the tandem title when the weather intervened. SAVE! Gtt Our Dial triors Yai Biy Just a Joke, but It Might Become Serious.

OUR William Vceck is a great laugh provider for his Brownie clients. But lie caused a lot of tongue-wagging when he introduced a midget (regularly and duly signed to a contract) into Sunday's game. The strike zone for a player so tiny was close to zero and so the doughty little mite drew a base on balls. The crowd roared at the situation, especially when Delsing was sent in to run for him. However, nothing came of It.

Nobody scored. And there was no opportunity for the visiting club to complain. But consider the consequences bad the next man up for the Browns made a triple and scored Delsinr with the run that ultimately proved to be the winning tally. Worse still, suppose it was the last half of the ninth, the bases filled and the score tied. If the pitcher walked the midget (which he probably could not avoid) he would force in the winning run! A protest would be Organized baseball would boil ever.

The league presidents, or the Commissioner or the executive committee would take up the matter. And of eouse measures would be taken to make repetition impossible cf any such extra-curricular ac tivities, designed to defeat the normal purposes of the game. VEECK, like MacPhaU and even our own Chris Von Der Ahe of long, long ago, provided interesting non-baseball entertainment for fans attending their baseball games. But thus far we don't remember any attempt to put something over involving the Same itself. Tampering with baseball procedure or refutations just to create a laugh would seem to be going a little too far, say fans to whom we have talked about the situation.

Have fun, but not at the expense of the game Itself. No joke that can give the home team an original man en base, a potential ran, is going to be taken lightly if repeated. White Sox Negro Ace Rookie of the Year? PAUL RICHARDS, White Sox manager, seems to have surrendered title hopes this year. But very definitely he has done a good job in picking players. One of the men he chose in a deal was Orestes Iinoso, Cuban Negro, just now one of the American League's top hitters.

He's an infield er an outfield star as Richards may need. If the Cleveland club should i fail to win the pennant because ef weak hitting-, bservers may conclude that it was because the Indians' front office kept Harry Simpson and let Minoso go, in a three-way deal with the Athletics and the White Sox. In any case, Minoso vaulted from just a pretty fair hitter Into one of the American League's best. And you can't overlook that one. A mag-r azine labeled "Complete Baseball" already has picked Mino-; so as the "Rookie of the Year," In the American League.

He's just about that at this writing. Orestes Is in the 29-year-old division but he has been active In baseball since he was about 16. In Cuba, where he made his start, he attracted the atten- tion of scouts and soon landed with San Diero. the Indians' Farm. He was brought to training camp last year and I again this season.

He worked In both outfield and at third base. And be has turned out to be a whale of a hitter and runner. HIS batting power, if available, today would probably make the Indians a sure-shot in the A.L. pennant scramble. And, while on the subject of the year's rookie crop, the magazine mentioned above picks Joseph Edward Presto of the Cardinals as the National larne's outstanding It's still early to make such a selection.

But if Presko hadn't suffered a muscle injury he might have been able to fully justify his choice. The Cardinals' right-hand cur-vist made a fine debut and is only four years out of high school. It may be that the Cards' staff really has something In this prospect. And we can't think of anything the Cardinals need more than a freshman pitcher of big league stature. Unbelievable May Add To Calumet Farm's Fame.

However, he's eligible for the $75,009 Washington Park Futurity and as that's to be run Sept. 1 hell need a rare or tv. to tighten him up if he's to have a shot at that bir priie.

1 (iTfciTfi cmant 11 "I fill rUf) I Playing with Jack Parnell, his side-kick from St. Louis, Moeller turned in a one-under-par score of 71 for his first round in the two-day practice period for the national caddie championship. This was one of the best among the early practice rounds of 59 contestants who will open fire for the college scholarship prizes in the national tournament beginning tomorrow. While Moeller had the benefit of previous experience here, it was the first visit for Parnell, who finished as runner-up to Earl in the St. Louis tournament sponsored by the Post-Dispatch.

Parnell Shoots a 75. Parnell did very well here on his first time around, scoring 75. Both boys were tired from a full week of tournament play last week in St. Louis, so they wisely limited their early activity. The 17-year-old Moeller, who has made a sweep of junior, cad i d.ie an.d Cr'stal Lake invitation titles in St.

This year, however, dry weather for an extended period has made the course TJlay shorter than usual. That 1950 medalist, incidentally, is one of nine boys, including Moeller, who are returning for a second crack at the national title. The medal winner was Bill Curtis, Detroit. Medalist Went 3 Rounds. All boys returning for another shot were early victims in the 1950 National.

Moeller lost in the second round, Curtis in the third. Under a changed set-up, tne tournament here has a smaller entry than that of previous years when from 76 to 100 boys competed. Now, each player must be of St. Louis r55-) The One of (fL Best MW J. gus c.

As the fans roared, he bowed and doffed his cap repeatedly. Feels Like Babe Ruth. "For a minute," the little man explained excitedly afterward, "1 felt like Babe Ruth." A Chicago White Sox fan, Gaedel returned home last night thrilled. "I never thought I'd live to see the day I'd be a major leaguer, the midget said happily. Veeck, grinning over the success of his greatest have-fun-if-you-can't-win experiment, was disappointed -only that the Browns, filling the bases after that walk, failed to score in the first inning.

"I wanted to prove," he said, "that this was a practical idea, too." The colorful character who runs the Browns pointed out that there was nothing in the baseball rules that dictated either maximum or minimum size of players, and the umpires agreed. They planned no report to league headquarters, they said. Red Rolf Detroit manager who made no protest because he had learned about Veeck's self-styled "secret weapon beforehand, complaineu in the visitors clubhouse later that the Brownie boss had "gone a bit too far." "I don't blame Bill for doing all he can to get and entertain fans, but I don't think there should be anything permitted that might affect or make a joke ol the game," Rolfe said mildly. Another Defeat for Garver. Except for the ball games, 1n which Detroit's Gene Bearden beat Ned Garver, 5 to 2.

fjiaaaH gam aVaa, 4r offered yesterday at Sportsman's As frosting on the birthday cake. before and after the sub-basement Browns lost ball games to De troit, Veeck sent into action the first midget in major league his tory. And like General Tom Thumb, the little person the original Barnum introduced to the crown heads of Europe a century ago, Eddie Gaedel is likely to be remembered for a long time. Twenty-six years oid, but standing just three feet seven inches low and weighing only 65 pounds, Chicago stunt man Gaedel popped out of a giant-sized paper anni versary cake, climaxing lavish between-game ceremonies, and minutes later strode up to home plate in full Brownie uniform, swinging miniature bats. "For the Brown" droned the voice of Field Announcer Bernie Ebert.

"No. One-Eighth, Eddie Gaedel, batting for Saucier." Yes, It Was Official. As a stunned crowd of 20,299 (18,369) came alfve with laughter at the sight of the economy-sized leadoff batter, Plate Umpire Ed Hurley crooked a finger at Manager Zack Taylor, who trotted out with the legal evidence an official American League contract signed by the midget and a carbon copy of a telegram Veeck hed sent to league headquarters, adding Gaedel to the Browns' playing roster. Hurley nodded approval, and then it was Detroit's turn to be puzzled. As the little fellow stepped into the batter's box, Catcher Bob Swift assumed a sitting position, decided that wouldn't do and then trotted out to talk to Bob Cain, the Tigers' pitcher.

"Get outta that hole," the Detroit bench yelled at the crouched figure waiting at the plate. Cain, deciding the. strike zone offered would have been too small for even a master of control like or Pete Alexander, got things over quickly but not the ball throwing four pitches high and wide. Gaedel threw aaide his bat, ran to first base, retired Albert Pitches Four Touchdown Passes as San Francisco Wins SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 20 (UP) The San Francisco 49ers marched fof a touchdown each of the first three times they got the ball yesterday and then went on crush the Washington Redskins, 45-14, in an exhibition game before 27,280 fans at Kezar Stadium.

With Quarterback Frankie Albert passing for four touchdowns during the game, the 49ers ran up a 28-0 lead at the halftime. It was the second shellacking of the week for the Redskins, who were whipped 58-14 last Wednesday by the Lcs Angeles Rams. Washington never threatened during the first half. The Redskins got one counter in the third period after Fullback Bob Goode went 42 yards to the San Francisco 12. From there Quarterback Harry Gilmer passed into the end zone to End Hugh Taylor.

Taylor also scored the other Redskin counter early in the fourth when he took a 16-yard toss from Gilmer and raced 65 yards. Bill Dudley made both conversions. oul ine country." ne said.
