themselves.
Why? In the first place Manager Frank Brazil! has his
"Nuts" hustling like a Bevo nine never hustled before. In
the second place, no one knows where they got it but the
hurlers ore turning in some masterful mound Jobs. And in
.., the third place, maybe Rollie Schefter's induction into the
r armed forces made the players so happy they Just can't
help themselves.
But what a boon to baseball in the Portland hotbed if they
just keep it up! Always recognized as one of the best ball
towns on the Pacific coast, a winning club would certainly make
things lively at Vaughn street in the Rose City.
Apparently the only weakness the Bevos have now, so to
speak, is catching. It's reported that neither Dominic Castro or
.Johnny Leovitch can hit a-tall, and that neither are what you
might call good receivers.
And Why Not Eddie Adams?
- Local fans here will readily agree that although he
probably wouldn't hit much, holdout Eddie Adams would
" certainly make a worthy figure on the receiving nd of
slants by Liska. Hilcher, Orrel and Co. Eddie need not doff
his cap to many as a catcher, and the way we see it would
fit right nicely into the amazing Bevo plans.
Would be helping out three ends of the situation, too, as
Adams absolutely refuses to report to Salem. So what? Sell or
trade him to the Bevos make them happy, make him happy
end either get a little foldin' babbit or possibly a player or
two the latter of which would certainly be welcome.

Spec Keene's bounding Bearcats, looking considerably like
anything but a well balanced ball club ten days ago, now ap

games.
Bob Bennett has improvedgreatly in the backstop de

been ably patched by shifting Bob Perry from second base
to third and installing smooth fielding Orv Ragsdale into
the keystone slot "Rags" and Bobby Daggett handle the
keystone pivots in commendable style. Jack Richards on
first rounds out a neat college infield.
And speaking of Richards. Toolsdn and Hanauska, all
three have shown ability worthy of a crack at pro ball. But
whether the boys would forsake their amateur standings be
fore graduation remains to be seen. It's a cinch all three will
eventually get picked up that is, if Uncle Sammy doesn't open
his car door first.
