George had little trouble once he aat down to talk with the 32-year-old lefthand er who pitched 60 gamea last sea son. 'It only took about 10 minutes said Page yesterday. "It was my best ever, ft even surprised me." Page had turned back one con tract from his Springdale, Pa., home. Two starting pitchers. Vie Ras- chi and lefty Tommy Byrne, still are unsigned. So are Clarence Mar shall. Bellingham. Wash.. Spec Shea and Hugh Radrliffe, the bonus pitcher, drafted from the Phillies organization. Yogi Berra, No. 1 catcher, may be a problem. Weiss also may have hia troublea with Bobby Brown and Bill Johnson who split the work at third base last year. Brown had a great world series. Al Martin, rookie second baseman, from Oak- and shouldn t take too long to sign. Johnny Lindell. mentioned prom inently in all trade talks involv ing the Yanka during the winter, also hasn't come to terms, and neither haa Dirk Wakefield, ac quired from Detroit in the deal for first baseman Dick Kryhoski. But nobody on the Yankee club is considered a "holdout" until March 1 when spring training starta at St. Petersburg, Fla.

Tues., Feb. i, 1950 Springfield Millers Defeat Indian Boxers, Wrestlers Ray Brown's boxers finally drop ped one. With nary a loss against the team this season. Springfield's Millers upset the applecart finally, to a 38-28 tune. It happened at the junior high school last night. Brown's boys were ahead 23-8 with aix matches out of the way. Then Roseburg lost six straight and that waa two too many. Claren Hooper'a impressive, win over Guy Peterson in the 13lh bout was anti-climax. It was too late, then. The same afternoon, Coach Cece Sherwood's wrestling boys didn't fare any better. In 12 matches, the locals took four by decision aud one by a fall, losing by a score of 23-17. The boxing deal looked like it might turn out to be a tame af fair with Roseburg the winner, but as the bouts reeled off, Spiing-field-produced action began to pica; up and shift into high gear. Highlighting the fistic ahow was one accidental knockout register ed by Springfield in the 11th event Jim Kemp took one in the head and went down. He atarted to get up, but referee Red Green waved him back to the mat. Springfield's Wayne Blackley ap peared to have Kemp in trouble shortly after they atarted tossing mitts. A regulation of amateur boxing requires that a knocked down fight er remain on one knee lor a nine count. Kemp apparently misinterpreted the ruling and atayed down one count too many. He waa counted out. Tha Hooper-Peterson affair rated as the crowd pleaser of the even ing, with spirited whooping ana hollering being supplied by nearly 300 eye-witnesses. Loren Tussing, Springfield, im pressed the crowd and Loren John son, his opponent, as being a puncher. Tussing drew some blood and the decision. Results: Wrestling results: 98 lbs. W.
