Battered British

LONDON (A Bruce Wood

patiently telling people:

as one of the world s better
heavyweights if he just hadn't
fought Americans.
For 4 years he whipped ev
eryone in his path in Britain. Then
he sampled the American heavy
weight market and that was a
mistake. Tami Mauriello, now an
almost forgotten heavy who sever
quite made the grade, needed only
live rounds to knock out Wood'
cock.
The Briton came home and took
up again his run through the
European ranks. But he was am

started. He crumpled Woodcock's
Jaw with one of the hardest rights
ever thrown.
At Earls Court fat London in
November, 19S0, Woodcock took
another beating. This time it was
from a fellow Englishman, Jack
Gardner, and Woodcock said he
was finished forever.
Last March Woodcock looked
ever the world heavyweight fight
er supply and, like a lot of other
observers, he noted weaknesses.
His old ambition plagued him and
he asked the BBBC for a chance
to come back.
The BBBC then said a firm,
"no."
Today, Woodcock waits again,
unmindful of his battered jaw, the
eye which Gardner pummeled and
all those other wounds.

This, that, etc:
No one seems to know much about just what the Calgary
Stampeders have in the way of a ball club for their inaugural WI
League splash with the resident Senators here Friday. But whoever
and whatever, tis hoped tnat
their manager hasn't taught 'em
to hit home runs like he used to.
The Calgary skipper is Gene Lil
lard who, during his active days
as a Coast League third baseman,
thought nothing of socking from
40 to 50 round trippers per sea
son. He smacked 58 one season
for Los Angeles, which was only
two shy of the PCL record of 60
which is held by the late Tony
Lazzeri when he played for the
old Salt Lake City club . . . Vil
lager Steve Tabacchi visited the
Senators spring camp at Calisto
ga last week as a measure of get
ting away from it all for a few
days here at home. But lo, the
poor guy was decked at every
turn. The fights he watched on
TV were sponsored by Pabst Blue
Ribbon. The ball games he lis
tened to on the radio were spon
sored by Falstaff. And when he
tuned in to some swing music
nnp nicht it was "I.uckv La Per

game one eve . . . They haven't provided our favorite ball team
with any help yet, but who can be mad at the Sacramento Solons
after their grand job of pinch-hitting for the San Diego club here
last night? Luby & Co. was left on a limb when the Padres had to
cancel their scheduled appearance. But Eddie Mulligan, Gene De
Sautels, etc., filled the gap admirably, and with but two days no

Myers have also agreed to be at the main table Thursday when Jim
Mosolf and the local service clubs turn loose their big "Welcome
Senators" luncheon at the Armory . . . Incidentally, Mosolf and the
service clubbers would like to see lots n lots of women at the
luncheon. The spread is open to the gals too ...
Reason Why So Many Ex-WIUert Nous in PCL
What's the reason for so many former WI Leaguers now
dotting the Coast Loop rosters? It's the new PCL "open classi
fication" trend, and that portion of it which forbids members
from accepting optional help from the major league clubs.
Pants Rowland's circuit, still foolishly trying to go big time,
isn't supposed to take optionees from either the American or
National Leagues. Thus the replacements for such optionees
have been made from the rank and file of our Class A circuit.
We can't say the caliber of baseball is any better because of it,
but at least the former WI lads are now getting the best oppor
tunity they've ever had in hopping from this league to the PCL
Prexy Bob Brown hasn't yet publicized the placement of his
empires for the WIL openers the coming weekend, and we dont
therefore know if Emmett Ashford will make his debut in the Sa-
lem-Calgary series here. But wait until you get a peek at Ashford
in action. He's the only Negro arbiter in organized baseball and,
after watching the guy work a couple of spring training games in
California it s safe to say hell be the most active.
- He has more umpiring gestures than a fan dancer ea a
busy night, and gives both ballplayers and fans an overdose ef
extracurricular activities around home plate. But he doesn't
seem to be a bad one en the important issue ef called balls
and strikes, and is an all-out hustler.
This will be Ashford's third season in professional baseball. A
Los Angelino, he also referees Coast Conference basketball in the
Southern Division.

! CHICAGO UP) Can it be that
the 1953 Chicago White Sox are
a throwback to the "hitless won
ders" of 1906?
'With a team batting mark of
462 so far, they are definitely
hitless.
j But they haven't done anything
to prove they are wonders, like
the 1906 White Sox who averaged
only .228, but won the American
League pennant and beat the Chi
cago Cubs four games to two in
the World Series.
I Billed as flag contenders this
season, tne Sox have had to be
held up mostly by luck in winning
two games in four starts.
! They downed the St. Louis
Browns 1-0, getting the decisive
run without a hit They edged the
Cleveland Indians 7-6 with only
two of the tallies being earned
and the winning run made on an
error.
; Of the 52 Sox to reach first
base, only 12 have scored - and
only six of, those runs have been
earned.
The Sox, heralded as a great
defensive club, have committed
seven errors in their first four
games and the pitching has been
punctured for 18 runs. 24 hits and
25 walks in 35 innings.
