Sport: Scoreboard, Feb. 14, 1955

¶ In Oklahoma City, Allie Reynolds, 37, the reliable righthander whose pitching helped win six pennants for the New York Yankees, retired from baseball. His arm still packed its old power, explained the Big Chief, but his back, injured in a 1953 bus accident, was in bad shape. Doctors had warned that it would not stand up to another season of professional baseball.

¶ In Nassau, B.W.I., more than 48 hours after leaving Miami, the 39-ft. yawl Hoot Mon (skippered by Lockwood Pirie, a reformed, Star-boat sailor) drifted across the finish line in the slowest Miami-Nassau race on record and won that blue-water championship for the second year running.

¶ At Hanover, N.H., after joining his teammates in a clean sweep in the slalom and downhill races, Dartmouth's Chiharu Igaya of Japan turned up as a surprise entrant in the jump, soared into fourth place with fine form and helped Dartmouth to easy victory at the college's 45th Winter Carnival.

¶ On Australia's Adelaide cricket pitch, England's speedball bowlers dropped Australian wickets like ninepins, won the deciding test match by five wickets and kept the Ashes, symbol of international cricket superiority.
