Yank Contract
Trouble Fades
NEW YORK. Feb. 21 P)
With Fireman Joe Page in the
fold, the New York Yankees' con
tract problems are fading fast.
Only eleven men on the world
champs' roster are unsigned. If
aimed, they haven't been announc
ed. Half of them can't be serious.
Pile's eigning for an estimat
ed $30,000 plus indicated George
Weiss, Yank general manager, ia
in a generous mood. 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.

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.
