UTAH - TUESDAY, MAY 12, IMS DAILY HERALD 'Blix Donnelly Comes Through For Cardinals rTKo Kfds' Choice BTTCAXL LCNDQTJIST :,NEW YORK, May 23 U.R Sylvester (Blut) Donnelly lacks four .inches and . 34 , pounds of matching Morton coopers height and. bulk; but he gave convincing evidence today that he may be able to step into the big fellow's shoes on tpe St Louis Cardinal pitching staff. The little man from Olivia, Minn., a wiry 168-pounder who stands fix feet, 10 inches tallhad been a major disappointment to Manager .Billy Southworth until he stepped out last night and handed the Brooklyn Dodgers a 4 to 0 beating on their own grounds. :That victory, coming at the end of: one -of the shakiest Cardinal road trips in years, may be the morale-lifter the team needs to get back - into the pennant picture. pic-ture. It projected Donnelly into the team's pitching plans because he had all he needed to win any game a good curve, a zipping fast ball and fine control and he didn't , tire as he usually does. Prior to last night he had dropped drop-ped four games in a row and in three of them he had been hit like Tee' Time By BOSS WIGHT Comments On The Open "If Provo can draw 105 of the state's best golfers in a rain storm what would happen here if you had ffood day?7' That was Tom McHugh's query at the Provo Open.

A bouquet is due Mr. and Mrs. Tom McHugh and C. L. Jensen who sat at the starter's table all day and despite the shivers ran off the huge entry without a hitch. Shine Snow's net thedry, "You Drive for Show and Putt for Dough"- was very ably demonstrated demon-strated in the open this year. Although Al-though there was nothing wrong with young Clare Emery's wood shots it was his hot putter that garnered the $100 war bond. Dave Crowtpn, Provo's entry in the Championship flight was In the. money the first nine but tough luck took charge the second round. Dave hit the ditch with his drive on the first hole and then a batting practice pitcher. Had he! failed last night Southworth might have been tempted to give; up on him or relegate him to a relief re-lief role, a nnsslgnment in which he was brilliant against the Browns in the 1944 world series. With Max Lanier in North Carolina preparing for army induction, in-duction, Cooper under suspension and sulking in St Louis, and; George Dockins being treated for arm trouble the Cards' were in desperate straits for pitchers. Donnelly's seven-hit Job gave the Cards a record of six victories and seven defeats for the trip. He struck out six men. By winning the Cards evened a score against Dodger Rookie Tom Seats, who shut them out to win his first major league game two weeks ago. He held the Cards scoreless for five inings again last night, but they scored twice in the sixth on a single by Dave Bartosch, an error by Catcher Mickey Owen on - Buster Adam's pop-up near the plate, a walk to Ray Sanders and a double by the Cards' number num-ber one clutch man, George Ku-rowskL Ku-rowskL Donnelly added another run on a double in the ninth when Bartosch also singled in a run. Ernie Lombardi's two homers weren't enough to start the New York Giants off with a victory in the first stop on their road trip at Pittsburgh but they deprived Max Butcher of a shutout and he had to settle for a 5 to 2 victory The Pirates gave Butcher a three run working margin in the first inning, Jack Barrett's triple and O'Brien's double producing the runs. Butcher gave up only four hits, but the two by Lom bard! were tremendous blows over the long left field fence, put ting him in the major league home run lead with nine.

Uo Ecrly Chtng?s In rrelghtuates WASHINGTON, May 22 UJD Shippers of coal, grain, olL sugar, coffee, rice and other bulk prod ucts on a point-to-point basis will experience no early changes in rates as a result of the interstate commerce commission's far- reaching freight rate equalization order, it was pointed out today. So-called "commodity1' rates, arived at by shippers and rail roads were not included in the ICC's order on "class" rates largely applying to. manufactured goods. The commission found that rates included in its order covered at present only. 4.1 per cent of the shipments and &3 per cent of the revenue of the nation's railroads as a whole: . . In the long, controversy over territorial rate-differences,, however, how-ever, the railroads have araued that if charges on high-grade goods were lowered by ICC edict, bulk products now moving on low point-tp-point rates would probably prob-ably have to stand an Increase to make up for loss of railroad reve nue. Shippers of bulk products also evidenced uneasiness that a rate equilization order would mean they . would eventually be -more money out of. pocket. . Counsel for a group of southern shippers indicated yesterday' that wis tear. might prove groundless. This was because the ICC's equalisation equal-isation order lowered rates in the south and raised them in the north until both reached a medium medi-um point. Had the southern rates been dropped down completely to the northern level, be said, industrialists indus-trialists making large - quantity shipments might have viewed the situation with alarm. Railroad spokesmen have declined de-clined to estimate the probable effect of the new system on their revenues. Although temporary rate changes on "class" freight will start in August, it will probably prob-ably be two years or more before the permanent structure ordered by the ICC can be put into-operation. 31st Drives to Moloybolay In Mindanao Push MANILA, May 22 Thirty-first Thirty-first division doughboys closed in today on Malayhalay, agri cultural center of middle Min danao, after driving 10 miles to .J A communique from Gen.
