Word from the south advises that the Snnset alleys in LA where
'the ABC Is belnr ran off is one of those sound-proof affairs. Meaning
that when you put the ball ln-there for a strike you're not going
to hear the crash of those pins you Capitol Alley trondlers who are
making the trip down. Now this
oond-proef business may
to be a. move in the right direc
tion to the engineers but to many
a roller It would take ill the
kick out of the same. After, all.
what Is the bir thrill of a bulls
rye pocket ball but to hear the
wham when those pins scatter . .
. Too bad Glen S tetter didn't
. stick with- Sacramento (and
we're still wondering why) for
he's the nice quiet sort of . guy
you like to see go places . . . Ray
Orteig. the ex-Vancouver Cap
belter, is still taking a back seat
to Ted Jennings at third-base for
the San Francisco Sealsbut they
can't keep Kay. out of the line-up
for long what with that big bat
of his. Incidentally Kay has a bre- - t ; ,
ther. Larry, playing the middle STEVE O'NEILL
patch for Washington State . . . Biddy Gentxkow la continuing to
bring a sparkle to Jack Wilson's eye down at Medford. Kiddy Is pul
ling that hard ball with a solid power equalling that which he
showed to the local Softball league. Right now Gentxkow is bothered
a bit by a sore arm which might be attributed to the changeover
from softball . .'. With Del Balllnger out of the Beaver line-up for
two months.' the chance of Bank Sousa bolstering the Senator catch
ing corps appear slimmer ...
Minor Complex
. This strange minor league complex which seems to affect a' certain
type of diamond performer is once more in evidence as Bob Joyce
came up with a pitching win as he resumed his career with the Seals
last week. Joyce, on hte strength of a Sl-Wln jear with San Fran
cisco In 1943, went up to the Giants last season but didn't have It
New he's back down and will probably come near duplicating that
'45 record. Psychology of some sort, you'll have to call It . . . There've
been a lot of 'em In the same category. Lou Novlkoff. the Russian
ripper. Gene Lillard (who hit 52 homers for LA one year and eouldnt
even get a bunt with the' cubs). Larry Barton (always a good hitter
on the coast), Kewpie Dick Barrett, a top hurler In the PCL but not
even qualified to tote the glove of a Breeheen or Cooper when ho was
p far a National league try-out,- and there are plenty of others In
the same bracket . . .
Don't Worry, Lillie
. Lillie Larsen. our sheet's esteemed Farm editor from the Silverton
vicinity, was perturbed the other day over a rumor she'd heard that
Silverton's State league franchise might be moved to some other town.
No need to bo alarmed; Lillie, for there's obviously not a shade of
truth to the story. The league fathers would-be craiy to remove the
franchise from one of the best dang baseball burgs In existence,
SUverton. with it colorful baseball history and its Bill McGinnls,
is a must, that's all . . . ,
Vico Rise Dramatic
The poignant drama of a kid Jumping from Waters park to De
troit's Briers stadium within the apace of a year still has better than
t 5e-5o chance of materialisation. For George Vice still Is Impress In
'cm. There Is, however, a small battle of opinions being waged by
Tiger General Manager Bill Evans and Field Pilot Steve O'Neill.
Evans thinks VIco should have the benefit of another year's season
ing In the minors. O'Neill, perhaps dreaming that there might be an
immediate compensation for the going of Grecnberg, wants to start
George right out as Detroit first sacker come opening day. It's still
anybody's guess as to who will win out but one thing Is certain
George Vice won't be the loser !n any case. For the lanky, former
Solon Is gonna be at the No. 1 bag eventually. Incidentally, the Tigers
were offered 535,08a for "Veek" by an unrevealed source In the
early stages of spring training .. .

Lon Stiner and his aids. .
The Beavers wasted little time

years has led the way In offense

Snap to Fight
Second Mainer
K-Falls Comer Shows
Wednesday at Armory
Jack Snap, the . sharp-handled
fistic lad from Klamath Falls, will
help take care of second main
event chores at the armory next
Wednesday - night, . Matchmaker
Tex Salkeld announced last night.
One of the most promising mid
dleweights in the state, Snap will
collide with the hard-swinging
and always-aggressive Ray Garcia
of Denver who makes up with
fortitude his scarcity of class.
Snap and Garcia will go eight
rounds, as well the first mainer
featuring Villager Bud Abney
against the tough Portland negro,
Sonny Jackson. Salkeld wanted to
shove Snap right in with Abney
on the next show, but Abney's
manager, Sam Duncan, nixed the
plan until he had a look at the
K-Falls clouter in action. Should
both Abney and Snap come
through with Wednesday wins it
is likely they will mix in a mainer
in the future.
Three four-round prelims, will
be added to the card later, the
top one featuring Salem's Ralph
Ayers, Salkeld hopes. Tickets go
on sale at Maple's next Monday
morning.
Although the infield was too wet
l for much work, the Senators
chased fungos and went through
lengthy batting practice in which
all pitchers took a crack at
throwing. Dick O'Boyle's turn on
the hill was cut short by a sore
arm but the rest of the mound
staff looked good. A short infield
workout wound up the afternoon.
Monday the Solons chased flies in
the rain and Tuesday's drill was
rained out completely.
Vince Lazor, who joined camp
last week, has been called upon
to pitch Friday night's game
against University of Oregon.
Ken. Wyatt will throw the first of
Satusday's double header against
the Collegians while Paul Soder
berg will handle the second
game. Dick Sinovic will oppose
Wenatchee Sunday. Buzz Sporer,
Dan OToole, Frank Smith and
Jerry Nelson will handle relief
chores. Balance of Friday's line
up will see Bud Peterson at short,
Jim Wert at first, Mel Nunes at
second, Ben Gregory, right field,
Marty Krug, left field, Paul Hal
ter, center field, Hank Bartolomei,
third base, and Don Cook catch
ing. Some changes will be made
Saturday and Sunday, Wilson

game Saturday and Cook will be

Baseball Boss
Becomes Tough
Action Follows Feud
Between Bums, Yanks
CINCINNATI, April 9-OVLeo
(The Lip) Durocher. one of base-,
ball's mct explosive characters
since he became manager of the
Brooklyn Dodgers eight years
ago, today was suspended for the
1947 season by Commissioner A
B. Chandler.
"Durocher has not measured
up to the standards expected cr
required of managers of our base
ball teams," Chandler said. ;
The suspension of the belliger-
ent Leo, who left a shortstop's
job to become baseball's highest
paid manager an estimated $70,
000 year was the "result of the
accumulation of unpleasant inci
dents in which he has been in
volved," Chandler said.
It was Chandler in new char
acter today a determined, punch
throwing i commissioner who said
in the same report that the peo
ple in baseball will not be per
mitted to associate wuh known
and notorious gamblers' and that
"swift disciplinary action will be
taken against any person violat
ing the order.' ,
Chandler exonerated Larry
MacPhail, president of the New
York Yankees, from any associa
tion with known gamblers, and
also said he was convinced that
Branch Rickey, head of the
Brooklyn club, had not made any
statements which might be con
strued as detrimental to Mac
Phail's character and integrity.
But, "because their officials en
gaged in. ay public controversy"
damaging' to baseball.' the ; New
York American league club nd
the Brooklyn club are hereby
fined $2,000 -each,! he added. -
He said both Rickey and Du
rocher had admitted making some
statements regarding MacPhail's
guests at the Havana game.
It was those statements, along
with others made in a newspaper
column under Durocher's name
that led : to hearings in Florida
recently and to Chandler's de
cision today. MacPhail brought
the case to . a head by filing
charges of defamation against
Durocher and Rickey. .
