Williams Says Farewell With Two-Run Homer

BOSTON. April 30-(AP) -Ted Williams said his second baseball iarewelis in 10 years with a game- ninning two-run homer today to give Boston Red Box a 5-3 victory over Detroit Tigers.

Williams first 1052 four-bagger. the 324th of his major league car- oer. strengthened the Red Sox's hold on nrst place in the Ameri- :an League as he left them to re- join the U. B. Marines for a 11- month tour of duty as a flier.

Making his first appearance in the starting line-up since the opening game in Washington, dur- ing which he pulled a leg muscle, Williams homered into the right field stand against Dizzy Trout with Dom DiMaggio on base in the seventh inning to break a 3-3

lie.

The Red Sox had taken a 3-1 load at the expense of starter Virgil Trucks in the fifth frame. Rookie Ted Lepcio launched that rally with a double and catcher Sammy White advanced him to third base with a single.

Then southpaw Mel Parnell chop- pcd a ball against the plate and it took a high bounce into Matt hhti.s' glove, but Batts. a former Red sucker, threw wild into right nelci and Lepcio and White scored as Parnell raced to this-

L..L.....:.:---- in Parnell with the third Boston counter and the stylish south- paw.seekillg his third straight win of the season, appeared to have it clinched.

Parnell had given the Tigers a fifth-inning run when Johnny Ll- pon singled and George Kell doubled. In the seventh. after Kell drew a base on balls and was forced by Steve Souchock, Vic Wertz made Parnell the victim of

deadlock matters.

That mighty blow upset Parnell. With two out Don Kolloway and Batts connected safely'and rookie righthander Ivan Delock was sent to the Boston mound. The young- ster retired the last seven Tigers in order. striking out three, to gain credit for his second win in relief.

Williams. who reports for duty at Willow Grove, Pa., Friday, was showered with gifts during the pre-game ceremonies. One of them was a (Cadillac) tedan from a group of intimate friends.

A 600-volume library of "Mem- ory Books". containing the .signat- ures of almost 500,000 New Eng- land admirers was turned over to Williams by George Akerson. as- sistant publisher of the Boston Herald-Traveler.

Unheralded French Colt Wins Racing Classic

(By Alan Harvey. Canadian Press Sill! Writer) NEWMARKET. Cambridge. Eng- land, April 30-(CP)--Thunder head II. a French colt with an unfashlonable pedigree. gailoped off with the first of the ilat-rac- ing classics today and cast a de- rided chill on Britain's 1952 turf prospects. It was the 11th triumph for France in 31 post-war classic

races.

Thunderhead 11. pooh-poohed hy the experts because his blood- lines aren't so ritzy, drew clear on the rising ground to win by a handy five lengths from English- owned King's Bench and another French horse, Marcel Boussac's Argur.

The classic, run over a straight mile at this headquarters of Bri- tish racing. is the Two Thousand Guineas. sn known although its value to the winner today was .C14.616.

The result came as a shock to turf regulars. who had figured on a match between John A. Dewar'I speedy Agitator and Lord Rose- hery's Bob Major. Agitator. 9 to 4 favorite. finished fourth and Bob Major was nowhere.

Eclipse of the English colts in a one-mile event which is usually just their dish bodes ill for local prospects in such future classics .1: the Epsom Derby and The Oaks. run over 1 1X2 miles.

Thunderhead II. which started nt 100 to 7: is owned by M. Eug- ene Constant and was ridden by Roger Polncelet. one of the lead- ing French jockeys. The chestnut cult is a son of Merry Boy. Bri- tish critics didn't think that was good enough breeding to win a classic race.

The same stable which shelters Thunderhead has several other useful three-year-olds, including Silnet, current favorite for the Derby at 14 to -1.

What probably was the best basketball team that ever repre- sented Salnt Dunslan's University joyously trotted odf the floor last night after winning the Island championship. They along with their opponents from the Air Force station at Summerside had just completed one of the most entertaining hoop games of the season and the saints 1:ft little doubt but that they were full benefit for winning the title. To the faculty adviser. Father Walter Maocuigan. to manager John Muilally and to. the team we ex- tend congratulations on your

achievements.

It probably wasn't until this ysar that most obseners realized the good calibre of ball that wu being played in the Province. The Saints. by their strong Intercol- legiate showing gave basketball in stimulating shot in the arm an: also gave themselves a recognized spot on the Maritime basketball ladder.

The Saints this year had more- all-around strength than any Is- land team we can recall. Rcardon. of course, was the spark of un- I"-lub with his ability to do just about anything on the court and do it well. In addition to this he possesses just about the finest temlpelm-ent for basketball imagin- able. We have yet to see him get the least bit irritated, show any

The Saints won the two game tctal point series 93-82 taking the round by eleven points; The Air Force won the first game in sum- merside on Monday night by a 51- 39 score. Dunphy and Reardon. who were on the sick list Monday night, for- got about their lung and appendix troubles last night as they racked up a total of 34 points between them. Team captain Dunphy was high man with 19 while Raeardon was runner-up with 15. The Saints led 27-18 after a hard fought first half but It was in the third quarter that they won the title. in the third quarter they outscored the opponents i7-4 for a 11 point margin which proved more thnn sufficient to wipe out their pre-game deficit? The Airmen threatened to come back late in the final quarter after Joe Muilally, Cy Maclsaac and Bob Mooney left the game via the foul route. But time ran out before the airmen could get their offense into high gear.

- Many Spectators

A large crowd of spectators sat in on the game which was one 01 the best of the season.

Terry Boon and Andy Andrews led the R.C.A.F. scoring attack with nine and eight noints Expect. ively. Team captain Bill Green was third high with six points.

Four fouls which were called on Green in the first half hurt the A'.rmens' chances. He was used Only sparingly in the third quarter for fear that he would foul out oi the same and it was in this time that the saints picked up their long lead.

The Airmen started strong and controlled the ball for about five minutes of the first quarter They went into an early 3-0 lean on a basket and foul shot by Andrews came out on the short end of an 11-8 score as the quarter ended.

Jack Reardon paced the Saints during the second quarter with

The big third quarter with Pete Dunphy leading the way for the saints doomed the Airmen. Dun- phy scored nine points in this ten minutes with Reardon picking up four, Macisnac and Frank Slowey two each. Terry Boon scored the Airmen's only hnsket in this quar- ter. ' scoring honors were well split up in the final frame. Dunphy. Earl Macxinnon, Maclsaac. Clarence MacDonald and Slowey each scor- ed single baskets for the Saints. Andrews led the Air Force with two baskets while Lowe got a has- ket and a foul shot.

Unsung heroes in the saints win were guards Hob Mooney. Cy Mac- Isaac and Clarence Macunnald. ThLs trio kept the Airmen from working in close to the basket ind blocked many of their long shots.
