Oakland Pleased
By Go Ahead Sign
For Ball Players
By Hal Wood
(United Preu SUtt Correspondent)
Boyes Springs, Cal., March 23
(IP) The best news the Oakland
Oak training camp has received
in a long time was the announce
ment from Washington that pro
fessional baseball players could
return to their "business."
That announcement meant that,
in all probability, deals with the
Philadelphia Phils and Pittsburgh
Pirates would go through and
as a result, the Oaks expect V
get added pitching strength. That
. was their one source ot worry.
Says General Manager Vic De-
Vicenzl:
Manager Satisfied
"I'm quite well satisfied with
our club. We are going to be
tougher than last year. We have
one pitcher coming from Phila
delphia in the Les Scarsella deal,
and another from the Pirates,
Then we will be all set."
Field Boss Dolph Camilll, who
won his spurs as a manager last
year by bringing the Oaks home
in a tie with San Francisco for
third, also is optimistic:
"I think we have a well-balanced
club especially when we
get those extra hurlers," Dolph
sums up the situation.
The club is going to miss Scar
sella. who led the league in hit
ting; it is going to miss Manuel
Salvo, who was tops in pitching.
But Camllli hopes to overcome
these losses by balance, and depth
in positions.
To Hold Down First
Camilll, still a great first base
man, has announced his intention
of letting Vic Pecittl, school boy
sensation, hold down first sack.
But if the youngster falls to make
the grade, Dolph will be available.
At second, veteran Jimmy Her
rara probably will get the call,
with Jake Caulfield at short and
Chet Kosenlund at third. For in
field insurance there is Ed Kirby,
purchased from Atlanta; Glen
Stewart, obtained from the Phils,
and Lynn Stortl, the veteran for
mer major leaguer.
The catching situation Is well
Jn hand with Bill Ralmondi, Gilly
Campbell and Sam Fenech on
deck.
For the outfield there is a reg
ular gang-fight under way for
first string positions. Tom Ha fey,
Norman Deweese, Frank Haw
kins, Hal Patchett, Frank Silvan
ic and Rookie George Efflslmo
are the leading candidates.
; , Win 18 Games . :
Jack Lotz, who won 18 games
last year, heads the pitchers in
camp. Floyd Stromme, who was
next to Salvo in the earned-run
column, Is back; and Italo Chelini,
a great hurler in 1943 before
breaking a wrist, is attempting a
comeback and looks great.
The veterans Sam Gibson, ob
tained from the Seals; and Elmer
Phillips, also are on hand. Damon
Hayes, who had a 7-6 record, is
being counted on for a good sea
son. Among the rookies Pete Bar
isoff, 18-ycar-old Brooklyn "cast
off" Is starting to shpw the stuff
that at one time made him a great
prospect.

State and New York university
were the finalists today In the
eastern N.C.A.A. basketball tourn
ament, literally loafing In to pro
vide a leisurely change of pace
from the current speed mania
among big time college teams.
Ohio State defeated Kentucky,
45 to 37 last night in a deliberate
defensive game which was retard-1
ed even, more because of cxces-
slve fouling by both teams. New
York university topped Tufts, 59 1
to 44. The Violets were rated 30 i
point favorites. They were hard 1
pressed to win by 15.

By Jack Cuddy
(United I'ritui Staff Correspondent)
New York, March 23 (Ui A few
weeks ago we typed a piece kid
ding some of the writing fellers
about their learned remarks on
what a changed man was Col.
Larry MacPhail since his return
to baseball. His hitch In the army
had made him a quiet, restrained
chap, they .said.
In our piece we emphasized
that red headed Larry was too old
a leopard to change his liver spots
if he had any. And that he soon
would be throwing his weight
around, like a beserk heifer In a
bric-a-brac shop.
Imagine our gleeful satisfac
tion, then, when dynamic Larry
broke loose this week, No, no
folks: we take no credit for hav
ing inspired President MacPhail
of the Yankees to cut loose. Na
ture merely took Its course. And
two months before even Larry
expected ifc.
We were .reminded of this last
night when we -.heard the
"changed" MacPhail - the quiet
restrained Larry going to town
over the air waves. He was a
forceful and persuasive speaker
in a Blue network forum which
was considering the question:
Should organized snorts ho abol
ished for the duration?" Your
first guess is correct. Larry was
in there punching for the con
tinuation of sports. He had a lot
of good arguments too, and he
wound up in true MacPhuilinn'
style:
Just one thing more. Anvone
who knows anything about it will
ma yuu nun me overwneiming
majority of the men who are
fighting this war for us want pro
fessional sports continued. Any
one who tells you anything else
simply doesn't know what he Is
talking about."
These remarks climaxed a week
of MacPhaillan reserve re-
last Sunday's hullabaloo' over Lar
ry's 'kidnaping" of Lt: Bert Shep
ard in Undersecretary of War
Robert' Patterson's private air
plane. Shepard, an army flier who
had lost a leg in action, was sun
posed to have worked out with
the Washington Senators at Col
lege Park, Md. But MacPhail
spirited him away to the Yanks'
camp at Atlantic City, N. J., for
the day. prexy Clark Griffith of
the senators exploded and hit
MacPhail-with a flock of word
fragments. The war department
finally straightened out the ruck
us. This "kidnaping" was not a
mere stunt on MacPhail's part. It
was his official notification to the
baseball world that he had become
active head of the Yankees 60
days ahead of schedule. That he
and not ancient Ed Barrow was
running things on the ball club
which Capt. Dan Topping, Del
We.bb,and ho recently bought for
$2,800,000. .,.. ..
Echoes of the "kidnaping"
had scarcely faded when the
"changed" MacPhail startled re
porters by disclosing that he now
favors Sen. Albert F. (Happy)
Chandler of Kentucky for the Job
of baseball commissioner. This
disclosure indirectly informed
everyone concerned that it would
be MarPhail and not Barrow
who will cast the Yankee vote for
commissioner. Barrow had fa
vored Ford Frick or Jim Farley.
MacPhail is still the old dynam
Ic, color guy. The only "change"
was his shift from the Dodgers
to the Yankees from the Nation
al to the American league. It is
our belief that the junior circuit
never will be the same again.

Gunder Is Sure
Victory in Sight
Cleveland, March 23 U')The
skinny Swedish mller, mercury-
tooted uunaer Hagg, had no
doubts about it tonight he was
going to win the Universe Bulle
tin, mile, crack event at the fifth
annual Knights of Columbus re
lays here.
The time? Gunder would make
no predictions, but track experts
noting that the 12-lap-to-a-mile
oval here is one of the fastest in
the nation predicted Haag would
cut the tape under 4:12. That
would be the fastest mile of the
current season, since the best
mark a not so hot 3:13.1 was
set by New York's Jimmy Raffer
ty In an earlier race:
Rafferty, incidentally, who tore
across the finish lino three
straight times ahead of Hagg,
won't be at the post tohlght. He
begged off because of "business
tnatters" which "Gunder the Won-,
der" thought "mighty queer." In
their meeting a week ago in Chi
cago Hagg missed victory by five
yards.

Eagles and Stars
Billed for Title
Portland, Ore., March 23 (LP)
Either the Portland Eagles or the
Seattle Stars will hang up their
skates after tonight's playoff
game of a torrid four out of seven
series.
The winner will scran It out in
another playoff with the Seattle
Ironmen for the Northern divi
sion Pacific coast league title.
Men team has won three vic
tories and tonight's game is a
standoff. The return of defense
stars Aubrey Webster and Bill
Erwin gives Portland a full
strength squad to throw at the
Stars.
Portland's scoring threats will
be Jimmy Planche, Bobby Morin
and Red Carr in the front lino,
with Planche the top individual
scorer of the series so far with'
18 points, Morin second with 17
and Carr third with 15. Seattle is
headed by the R.C.A.F. star, Jim-
mv Lowe, and Glenn Vickers, a
former Portland buckaroo expert.
An indication of the scrapping
of the first six games is shown
by the fact 62 goals were scored
and 58 penalties called.
Paulie Peters to

Folks: ... I. - . ..
I want to introduce a new man with
us. He is Jess Thompson, originally from

tried logging. Got hurt there and is now
figuring that Bend is the ideal spot to
live.

build up his volume of business, because
like any other merchant, it's the dollars
