Francisco Seals tonight.
Jo Jo announced his resignation
late today after a long distance
conversation with Ceneral man
ager Earl Sheely of the Rainiers. I
Jo Jo had said in San Francisco
he thoucht the nod would bo to
Johnny Bassler, one-time Seattle
manager, who has been scouting,
Sheely said, however, that "John-j

the negotiating.
It was learned that O'Neill is
reluctant to come to Seattle until
the end of the season, but, accord
ing to Cleveland sources, he def
inetly is "interested."
One version reported was that
O'Neill could be obtained immed
iately if the Rainiers were willing
to assume the balance of his pres
ent 1949 contract with Cleveland,
which calls for a somewhat high
er salary than the average paid a
coast league manager. It was un
derstood O'Neill was offered a
good salary, plus a two or three
year contract.
Earlier today. Sick said Jo Jo
was "out" and would be replaced
as soon as a new manager could
be found.

j Seattle's disastrous losing streak.
! The Rainiers lost 12 out of 15
I games, the last nine in a row,
I and tumbled from second place to
' fifth.
I White took the whole shakeup
j in stride, saying "it's baseball and
! that's all there is to it."
His only regret was leaving the
Seattle players. He described them
a "swell gang" every one of
them. This sentiment apparently
w reciprocated, for all reports
indicated that White was extreme-
ly well liked by the players and
rated as a
as well.
"It's a good ball club with fine
pitching." White declared. "Three
or four players have been in a
slump and, if they come out of it,
that will make all the difference
in the world."
' He specifically named Neill
j Sheridan, Hillis Layne and Heinz
1 Becker as fine players who have
been in a batting slumo. "If they
can get back to hitting their nor-
mal averages. I am sure it will
be a winning ball club again,'
White said
As for the future. White said
simply that he was "looking for
a job." He had nothing in pros
pect, this thing having hit sud
denly.. White has been in organized
baseball for more than 23 years,
playing in the majors a good part
of that time. He played seven
years with Detroit and Cincinnati.
He came to the Coast league in
1939 and played through 1942,

COULEE DAM, Wash , July 13 -.TV Lake Pend OreU!e. kand
point. Idaho take notice.
A Kamloops trout has been caught in Lake Roosevelt fehind
Grand Coulee dam. i
H. A. Gangmark. a biologist
from the Seattle office of the fish
and wildlife service, told of the
catch. It was only an eight-pounder
but it was officially identified
as a Kamloops.
Anglers in northern Idaho have
long claimed that their Lake Pend
Oreille has a virtual corner on
the market for Kamloops, rainbow
trout that weigh more than 30
pounds.
Gangmark said he and Leonard
Fulton were taking samples of
fish at random from various parts
of the lake with gill nets when
they hauled up the kamloops
They were conducting a special
fish survey on the reservoir.
Claude E. Greider, superinten-
dent of the National Parks service,
I said he was very enthusiastic
about the catch and hoped that it
misht make the lake a top-flight
fishing spot. Back water from
dams have often proved to be
poor fishing grounds in the past,
however,
Greider and the fish and wild
life sevrice said they were not
prepared to- say where the kam
loops came from but both agreed
they are glad they're here.
Coulee dam anglers have con-
tended in the past that there wore
kamloops in Lake Roosevelt.
Members of a coast and geodetic
survey found a dead fish last year

pounds. It was never identified,
