Tliis h Hoti) Mttfitiger Bill Beard Keeps the Boys Busy in Salem Senators Spring Training Camp at Corvallis

WT' '
Batting and running drills, plus the traditional "pepper" same are
daily phases of the Salem Senators spring training grind at Corval
lis. At left. Rookie Norm Laeieh (31) of Estacads has his swings in
batting practice as Mgr. Beard (foot on eage wheel) -looks on with
A baseball club, in order to be a winner, most generally must have
solid pitching, a good "middle" (catcher, second - short combination
and center fielder), two or three power sluggers, smart managing and
hustle. There may be one or two other requisites, as the case may be.
But those mentioned are often the
top. essentials.
So with those in mind, let's take
a thorough peek at the Salem Sena
tors, now tuning up at Corvallis and
only three weeks away from open
ing the WIL campaign.
First, the pitching. Manager Bill
Beard was telling us the other day
he wasn't worried too much about
nis siau as u now sianas, as ne
figures the other league clubs aren't
too well off either. True, the Salems
do not have two or three flingers in
the ranks who can be depended up
on to dish up a well pitched game.
There are no "aces" around, in other
words. Bill Osborn. obtained from
Grand Rapids in the Joe Gedzius I.
trade, had a fair season in Class A k
ball last year, but was impotent with i
with Wenatchee when in this loop "
in 1947. He may blossom into a big
winner this time. This might also be
Linneia oene Peterson s big season,
But so far he has been an in-and-
outer with the club and as yet to
win his spurs as a first-rate winner.
Wee Jimmy Foster, although he didnt win a game last season showed
signs of effectiveness now and then. He could," with improvement, be
a winner. Lefty Glenn- Miller, the rookie from Portland's sand lots,
comes highly recommended. He seemingly has the stuff at Corvallis,
but isn't by any means . established. Ray McNulty, the madeover in
fielder who will now devote full time to the mouid, looked as if he
had enough in some of his stints last season. But he too must be class
ed only as a hope until he proves otherwise. Lefty Jack Ferluga had
a fair Season with the pennant-winning Amarillos of the West Texas
New Mexico loop in '48, but must yet cijt his niche in the WIL. So
must Rod Province, the home-grown rookie and Clyde DeWitt, the
Reeds port righthander who spent most of his time traveling from one
Class C league to another a a Senator ootionee last vear. Other rook-

So the pitching, as it now stands, is not solid. Actually, it is the
weakest department on the club. i
Should Harm Dandy 'MidtlU on Club
New. the "middle." Here the Townles should shine. H'lth Beard
behind the dish (and he'll get all that eaa be coaxed from the
asjrlers, too), Al Speater and Bud Peterson around the 'middle bag
. and Bob Cherry, a good fielder In center, things look rosy. Beard
as catcher for the 1947 club was In oar book the most valuable
player In the leagae. Spaeter and Peterson should form a terrific
double-play daet The experienced Cherry, although not eon
sidered a good hitter, should be a dandy go-get-'em man in the
middle garden. I
As for power, we see little to speak of. Beard will hit a long ball
Bow and then, but isn't the slugger type. Neither are Jim Wert, Spae
ter, Peterson or the two lads who will fight it out for the! third basing
post, Jess McWilliams and Wayne Peterson. Both; Outfielders Cherry
and Mel Wasley will bang an occasional home run, but they aren't of
the big, robust fence-rattling species. The only gent on the club who
Is capable of hitting one down town, as the saying goes, is Jim Olson,
the transformed pitcher who is now listed as an Outfielder. Jim does
have the power. But after looking over his pitching corps. Beard lo
icanned long and hungrily at the 17 games Olsen won as a hurler last
ieason and hinted that Big Jim might well be wearing his toe plUe
again this campaign.
Beard Will Have the Ilu$tle, Alright
Smart managing and hustle? This lsvBeards first venture as a
manager, so It's impossible to say whether hell be a smart ie or a
dumb dodo. We'll bet he Isn't the Utter. Bill has been around big
and little ball yards long enough to know something about how
the smarties do It Hell have 'em hustling, alright. Well liked by
Just anyone who knows him. Bill Is the type of fellow for whom
the players will put oat. We have no fear that Beard wiir have any
trouble la the hustle department.
So there you have our spring training sketch of the Salems. Brief
ly, they need pitching. But no one will be more tickled than we i-hould
four or five of those fjingcrs now in camp come throughjajv inners.
They'll have to, or we're in for a long and dismal pro baseball sum
mer. .More power is needed. But" where it will come from no one
knows. First-sacker Marty Krug, now a much improved player over
what he was with the So Ions in 1947, is destined to move Wert right
out of the picture when and If the Portlands turn himNkxse. Bco
Boss Bill Sweeney took a liking to Krug down south, and he'll be
headed Salem way as soon as Portland gets the first baseman he i
begging for. But Marry isn't a long ball hitter either. :
Assistance (praise Allah) may come from the varsity1 later on.
If It doesn't well, guess well have to think about winning the
' WIL pennant next year. Cat Mclrvin, who ean hit 'em as well as
itch 'em, Dick Sinovle, Eddie Barr and Hal Saltsman wight be
considered as help for the locals. Bat le. they have taken to t"er
promotions well and mast be considered lost. For the present at

Old Man Appling Hits 40-Year.
Mark But Skeptics Plentiful
PHOENIX, Ariz., April 2-'P)-Luke Appling, the Venerable and
highly successful Chicago White Sox shortstop, today turned 40 again.
The record book says "Old Folks' Appling was born April 2, 1909
at High Point. N. C. The geography
is questionable. A lot of people
believe Luke, who last season set
a lifetime American league record
for games played at shortstop with
2,057. is closer to 45 than 40.
Certainly, there are days when
Appling, with his grumbling about
aches and pains, almost admits his
published vital statistics err slight
ly. But even as the Pale Hose mov
ed out of California for theirjiome
ward training swing, Appling
found that fountain of youth again.
His aching pins now carry him
around with dash. His arm is
winging the ball as straight and
true as ever. And his. bat cur
rently is thumping a .300 average.
Appling is really one of baseball's
seven wonders.
