$300 Bat To Turn Up
In Camp Of Senators
LOS ANGELES (AP) A $.100
baseball bat will turn up at the
Washington Senators' camp ' at
Orlando, r'la., next mor.th.
It's made of canvas and clear
plastic. 11 cannot be broken.
This bat and olhers like it will
be used in practice by the Sena
tors and the Portland, Ore., club
of the Pacific Coast League.
The designer, Ray Tanguay,
claims a player can correct and
improve his hitting with the bats.
Canvas, Blues with resign and
compressed under pressure,
forms the handle.
The plastic portion, which Tan
guav calls the "window." forms
what players call the "fat of Hie
bal."
Inside the plastic is a half-inch
rod. It gives the batter the im
pression he is hitting a ball with
a half-inch shaft instead of a full
hat. This, it is hoped, will sharpen
reflexes, sight and coordination.

(NBC to p.m. Eastern Standard
Time) from Madison Square Garden.
Thompson was ready to quit the
ring after 12 years ol amateur
and pro battling when he was

Goalby Hot In Open
BRADF.NTON, Fla. (AP)-Bob
Goalby has been in the money in
nine oul of 10 golf tournaments
this year, and il was obvious to
day the 29-year-old playing out of
Crystal River, Fla., doesn't intend
to miss any dollars in the current
$40,000 DcSoto Lakes Open.
He shot a 4-under par 67 to lead
a tough field in the first round of
the 72-hole DeSoto event Thurs
day. Although 22 players managed to
hit par or better over the 6,902
yard, par 35-36 71 layout, many
of the well-known contenders had
their troubles.
Crazylegs Back
As Ram Manager
LOS ANGELES (AP) Old foot
ball players don't necessarily fade
away. Sometimes they come back,
as Elroy (Crazylegs) Hirsch did
as the newly named general man
ager of the Los Angeles Hams.
Hirsch. whose fantastic catches
of passes thrilled Kam fans for
nine years until his retirement in
1957, signed a three-year contract
Tuesday. He succeeds Pete Ro
zclle, who moved up to become
commissioner of the National
Football League:
Salary terms were not divulged
but a good guess is that Crazylegs
will earn $75,000 for the three
years.
Hirsch. a nero in nis native
Wisconsin since his playing days
at Wausau, the University of Wis
consin (1941-42) and Michigan (U.
S. Marine wartime program,
1943). has been active in radio and
television since bis playing career
ended.
In 1951, when the Rams won the
NFL championship, he set a
league record of 1,495 yards
gained on passes and caught 17
touchdown passes.

prose style of his father who died
in 1933.
John started his career as a re
porter for the New York Herald

a sports columnist for the North
American Newspaper Alliance, for

at the Frank E. Campbell funeral
church. The time of the funeral
was not immediately announced.

to say if they had communist con
nections. He now resides in New
York.
