Loulis. Cardinals Defeat Dodgers 14-5

To Revenge

Chicago While Sox Hard-hitting Rookie "Oulfielder

By Jerry Links

EOAGO. May 9 — (AP) - "When he gets on a real hitting dteuk, he'll kill s couple of umpires and knock the boards loose on the fence."

That was Casey Stengel, New York Yankee manager, talking lbout outﬁelder Gus (Ozark Ike) Zcrnlsl of Chicago White Sox — the strapping 2l0-pound rookie now butting a sizzling .354.

“His power is amazing. He's lisble to flatten an infielder on Just s bounder."

Zernlal first gained StengeYs admiration in the Pacific Coast Lesgue.

Zernial has only two homers to date, while he has hit eight two- bsggers, tops in the league.

In '74 trips, the slx-foot-three- inch Zernial has poled 28 hits. sharing the league lead in that de- partment with Hank Majeski and Bsm Chapman, both of the Ath- letica.

His 854. through Sunday's game, ranked fifth in the league, but three players ahead of him play- ed in 115 of fewer games, while Zernlal has been in 19.

Handsome Gus, who didn't seem to appeal to Cleveland Indians, is amazingly conscientious in a try to become a polished all-round player.

The 25-year-old Zennlal broke in with Waycross, Ga. of the class D Florida-Georgia loop in i942, hitting .286. The next three years he spent in service and then inter- ested Cleveland with s .333 msrk with Burlington. N. C.. of the elsss B Carolina circuit in 1046.

‘The Tribe listed him on its 1941 roster, but released him to Holly- wood that season and Gus blossom- ed out with a .334 average. The Sox bought him, but had to leave him F: the Wast Coast last year when

Jones gave up nine hits to Chor- ley Grimm's tsil-enders, but he kept them well-scattered, except for the second and fifth, when the Bruins touched him for their runs.

The ladies’ team is the Charlottetown Capitols, who‘ wrlll compete in the Maritime ls- dies’ candiepin bowling tournollh‘ ent which takes place at Freder- icton, N.B., on Monday.

Touted as a sure-fire bet to win the Canadian junior hockey title and the Memorial Cup, the Wheat Kings now are virtually out in the cold. Royals, the club almost no- body thought had a chance, are only inches away from the title. Nothing has gone the way the so-called experts figured it would. Goalie Ray Frederick of Wheat Kings has been outstanding. But netminder Bobby Bleau of Royals has been more than satisfactory in the Royals not.

Then there's the matter of bumping. Wheat Kings, their line- up frlled with husky six-footers ranging close to 200 pounds, were figured to hold a. decided edge in the "sock 'em" department. Royals haven't backed sway s mite. Their entire play has been considerably more aggressive thsn that of the Wheat Kings.
