ST. LOUIS (AP)The Cardinals on Sunday

put manager Marty Marion back on the active

player list, recalled two other players, and sentpitcher Cloyd Boyer and outfielder Jay Van

Noy back to the minors.

The club recalled outfielder Hal Rice from

Rochester of the International League and

brought up pitcher John Crimian from Colum-

bus of the American Association. Rice was

hitting .330 for Columbus.

The New York Giants traded outfielder

Johnny Jorgensen and pitcher Frank (Red)

Hardy to the Oakland club of the Pacific Coast

League for outfielder Earl Rapp.

A lefthanded batter, Rapp was obtained

chiefly for pinch-hitting duties. At Oakland, he

hit .332 in 83 games.

Former Yankees reliefstar Joe Page turned

in four solid innings as the Kansas City Blues

beat Indianapolis 4-1 to complete a double-

header sweep.

Page started the nightcap after a months

absence because of a sore arm. He gave up one

run in four innings and received credit for the

win. Pages fastball had more zip than at any

time since he joined the Blues and he was

throwing with a noticeably freer motion.

NEW YORK, N.Y. (U.P.) Baseball is

looking ahead to the 18th All-Star game at De-

troit on July 10, but looking back on the first

one in 1933 causes wonder as to whether the

current crop will measure up to the standards

set by those stars 18 years ago,

Five of those old heroes are dead and most

of them have departed from the big league

scene. But 10 of them will live forever in the

games Hall of Fame and eight of their number

are still active in the major leagues.

That first one in this All-Star series, at Chi-

cagos Comiskey Park on July 6, 1933, was an

all-time keynote. The big man, Babe Ruth was

on his way down then, but he still had that im-

mortal thunder in his bat. His two-run blast

over the wall decided the issue.

The Babe is gone almost three years now,

joining four others of that first All-Star cast

who preceded him. John McGraw, the LittleNapoleon who managed the National League

team, was the first. McGraw didnt live another

year after that inaugural, dying on Feb. 25,

1934 at the age of 60.

Eight Still Around

The next to go was Lou Gehrig, the Iron

Horse of the Yankees, who died June 2, 1941 at

Lopat Records Latest Whitewash

As Yanks Return to First DivisionNEW YORK Even the Yankees wouldadmit theyve had a disappointing season to

date. But they do one thing better than any

team in baseballblank the opposition.

With Ed Lopat spinning a five-hitter Sunday

for his 20th career shutout, the Bombers sub-

dued the Red Sox, 7-0, to move back into the

first division of the American League.

It was New Yorks fourth straight win, three

coming via whitewash. Yankee hurlers lead

the majors with nine, three fewer than their

loop-leading total of 12 last season.

Joe DiMaggio and Bobby Brown drove in

runs in the first inning to give Lopat a 2-0

lead. Yogi Berras eighth home run and

Browns RBI double made it 4-0 in the third.Lopats run-scoring single capped the Yan-

kees scoring in the eighth.

Lopat (8-4) fanned five and walked two in

notching his fourth win in five decisions. Bos-

ton starter Mel Parnell (7-5) allowed five runs

in 6 1/3 innings in losing his first game to New

York in three starts in 1951.

AROUND THE HORN

Elsewhere in the American League:

The Tigers, masters of the nail-biter, swept

the league-leading Indians in a doubleheader,

4-3 and 2-1.

Detroit is 12-4 in one-run games this sea-

son, the best such record in the majors.

Bob Cain held the host Tribe to three hits

over seven innings, and Hal White finished

with two scoreless innings of relief to record

his major league-leading sixth save as the Ti-

gers won the opener.

Dick Kryhoski knocked in two runs with a

double and homer, and Vic Wertz belted his

fifth long ball in seven games for Detroit. Cain

(3-2) had a no-hitter until giving up a single to

Bobby Avila in the sixth. Bob Feller (6-4),

touched for four runs in 6 2/3 innings, took the

loss.

Ted Gray (7-7) went seven strong innings in

the nightcap to beat the route-going Bob

Chakales (2-1). Wertz and George Kell knocked

in the Detroit runs.

Dick Fowler fired his second consecutive

shutout in the first game, and Gus Zernial

cracked his 19th home run and drove in three

runs in the second as the As swept the visiting

Senators, 2-0 and 7-1.

Fowler (5-2) fired a four-hitter and singled

home a run. Bob Hooper (7-4) hurled a six-hitter

in the second game. Zernial is tied for the A.L.

lead in home runs.

Orestes Minoso had two hits and two RBI ina 6-3 win in the opener, and Ned Garver spun a

seven-hitter to win the nightcap, 6-1, as the host

White Sox and Browns split a doubleheader.

Garver (5-6) improved to 2-0 against the Sox

this year. Chicago slugger Eddie Robinson

drove in three runs without benefit of a hit in the

twin bill. His 68 RBI lead the majors.

BROOKLYNYoud never know that Don

Newcombe started the season with a sore arm, or

Gil Hodges with a brittle bat.

Newcombe, who missed his opening day as-

signment with an ailing soup bone, hurled a six-

hitter Sunday, and Hodges, who scuffled

through April and May, poled a homer and had

two RBI as the Dodgers beat the Phillies, 5-1.

Hodges, who has 10 homers and 40 RBI since

June 1, is one of three Brooks voted into the

combe made it a foursome.

the age of 38. After him, in 1946, went 42-year-

old Tony Lazzeri, and, in 1947, 46-year-old

Jimmy Wilson.

But the rest are still around, watching with

longing eyes as men with willing muscles carry

on a contest which has become a tradition.

Eight of them are still on the big-league scene

Connie Mack, despite his 88 years; Joe Cronin,

Jimmy Dykes, Bill Dickey, Frankie Frisch, Lon

Warneke, Carl Hubbell and Tony Cuccinello.

Mack is in virtual retirement after stepping

down this year from his dugout managerial

perch but still maintains a front office connec-

tion with the Philadelphia Athletics. Cronin is

general manager of the Boston Red Sox; Hub-

bell is farm director of the New York Giants

and Warneke, the old Arkansas hummingbird,

is a National League umpire.

Four of the inaugurating old guard still pull

on the footless stockings every day. Two of

them are managers. The bombastic Dykes runs

the Athletics and the still fiery Frisch pulls the

strings of the Chicago Cubs. Dickey is a coach

with the Yankees and Cuccinello handles the

same chores with the Cincinnati Reds.

All-Star Members

The current crop will have to really turn it on

to match that 1933 All-Star aggregation. Those

jealously guarded honors have gone to Ruth,

McGraw, Gehrig, Frisch, Mack, Hubbell, Pie

Traynor, Charlie Gehringer and Jimmy Foxx.

Many of the others are still being considered

for the hall at Cooperstown Lefty Gomez, Al

Simmons, Ben Chapman, Wes Ferrell, Rick

Ferrell, Sam West, Paul Waner, Chick Hafey,

Bill Terry, Gabby Hartnett, Alvin Crowder, Earl

Averill, Hal Schumacher, Bill Hallahan, Pepper

Martin, Dick Bartell, Chuck Klein, Lefty

ODoul, Woody English and Wally Berger.

All of them wont make it, naturally, but it

was quite a crop which showed its collective

wares that opening All-Star day in 1933. The

boys of today will have to go all out to get any-

where within shouting distance on an overall

basis.
