By Carl Lundqulst .
(United PreM SUf CorrKndnt)
New York, April 27 tunIn this
major " league season, already
brimming over with baseball od
dities, the ninth spot In the flat
ting order no longer is a long
shot liability for a manager who
needs a hit and doesn't want to
remove the pitcncr lor a
The evidence was mounting to
day that this Is going to be a year
lor the pitcncrs noi iray
hurling hill but at the plate as
well. Although there is no rule
.,mm romilrpa a manager to
til nlteher arbitrarily a
hnttnm of the batting order,
there usually Isn't much dispute
since the pitcher Isn't expected to
do more than go to the plate,
fako his iswincs. and return to
the dugout to think of hi9 hwurid
chores. ' . .

But take Nelson Potter, the 34-r-nlrl
ritrht handed for the
Browns. With the score tied 3
nil in thfi ninth at Cleveland, Pot
ter hit a single which scored Len
Schutte from second with the
winning run. Potter turned in a
seven-hit job to give the Browns
their first victory since me ks
Rnn nnerter.
HaiTv Feldmah of the New

first winning effort.
At Washington, 40-year-old
John NIggeling, got a double and
single to pace his team at bat
tin a 4 to 1 victory over the Boston
i Red Sox, who haven't won a game
' to date and have lost seven.
The Philadelphia athletics scor
ed all their runs in the fourth
inning, wiping out a 5 to 0 defi
cit to upset the visiting New
York Yankees, 7 to 5. The Yank
ees had made all their runs and
pitcher Walt Dublel appeared to
be coasting to victory when the
A's teed off on him, getting three
singles, three walks and a double
to score four runs. , -
All other major league games
were postponed yesterday.
Yesterday's star Nelson Pot

John Wesley Gill
Sale Announced
Portland, Ore., April 27 mi
Cash sale of John Wesley Gill,
veteran outfielder for the Port-!
land Beavers, was announced here
last night by William Klepper,
general manager of the Beavers.
Klepper, who did not reveal the
amount Involved In the sale, said
Gill would leave Immediately for
Seattle. He pointed out that Port
land could spare an outfielder,
having Frank Shone, Ted Gullic
and Frank Demaree playing In
the cornfield with Charley Peter
son available for tight spots.
Gill, on the other hand, will
bolster the Rainier force, which
needs a good outfielder and a left
handed hitter.

today's Sport Parade
By Io II. Petersen
(United I'reM SnorU Editor)
New York, April 27 mi A par
ade of champions Is going to start
soon the most ambitious boxing
program In the nation's history.
Whether it be outdoors or In
doors, promoter Mike Jacobs will
stage a fight every Friday night
as soon as tne circus vacates
Madison square garden. So far
he has lined up two fights for the
polo grounds and Is negotiating
for. several other outdoor bouts,
one of which will involve two of
the leading civilian heavyweights.
The parade of champions ac
tually won't start wilh the first
bout May 25 which is almost a
month before summer begins but
which Is close enough In boxing
parlance but the winner of that
light win tigure in me paracic.
Rockey GraJano and Al Davis
are booked for that first match
and the winner Is going to get a
Sltot.'.Bti'Weltcrwcight chumpion
Freddie"1 (Red) Cochrane in an
outdoor go June 29.
But Cochrane s title will not be
at stake. Neither will the crowns
of the other champions.
In between those two bouts, Ike
Williams, the new N. B. A. light
Czar to Study
Cooper Dispute
Chicago, April 27 (111 The Mor
ton and Walker Cooper salary dis
pute will be the first case upon
which Sen. Albei t B. Chandler, D.,
Ky., will have to pass Judgment
as baseball's new commissioner.
Leslie M. O'Connor, chairman
of the advisory council of base
ball, said today that us soon as
the ease Is ready for decision he
will "ask Mr. Chandler what he
wants to do with It."
The St. Louis Cardinals signed
19-15 contracts calling for $12,000
salaries, the club's ceiling wage.
They demanded a $3,000 raise
when they learned that Marty
Marlon, the team's shortstop, was
receiving an above-celling salary.
When president Sam Breadon
ot tnc Cardinals refused to grant
the increase, the Coopers emit the
Cardinals but later rejoined them
alter deciding to pursue llieli
raise through official channels.
Above-celling salaries musl he ai
proved by the treasury depart
ment.
Walker, the Cardinals' cnnlaln I
and star catcher, Is scheduled to
be inducted into Hie aimed forces
Monday.

weight champion, will meet Willie
Joyce of Gary, Ind., in an Indoor
bout June 8. Williams won the
title from Juan Zurita of Mexico
in a fight at Mexico city last Wed
nesday. Following that fight, Jacobs has
flay Robinson, the uncrowned
king of the welterweights, booked
to battle Jimmy McDaniels at the
polo grounds June 15. That fight
may not go through as the army
has accepted Robinson for re-Induction
and he may be called be
fore then.
But whether the army takes
him before that or after, there
seems little chance that Cochrane
and Robinson will get together in
a title match. The June 29th bout
will be Cochrane's first since he
was discharged from the navy and
the New Jersey redhead is plan
ning a series of tune-up bouts be
fore putting his championship on
the line. And there seems to be
a general feeling in boxing cir
cles that Cochrane wants no part
61 Robinson. - ,, . .,
. Although there arri't going to
be any million dollar gates or any
thing close to them, it's a safe
bet that boxing's receipts in 1945
are going to be the. highest of
any year in the sports' history.
Frick, National league president,
and Frank J. Shaughncssy, head
of the International league. The
new czar, without giving details,
said the discussions were con
fined to "general .problems" of
the game and the commissioner's
office.
"Frick was good enough to out
line the duties of my new office
and the baseball situation in a
general way," Chandler said.
He added that ho hoped to hold
a similar conference in the near
future with William Ilarridge,
president of the American league.
Frick, Ilarridge and Leslie O'Con
nor, secretary to the late com
missioner K e ri e s a w Mountain
Landis, have been serving as
baseball's advisory council since
Landis' death.

Angling Lessons
Final plans for the organization
of a Junior Sportsmen's associa
tion and the outline of a free six
weeks course in the science of
angling for 10 to 14 year-olds will
be drafted Monday night at a
meeting of the Deschutes county

The new project, headed, by
Wilfred Jossy, will be designed
to foster sportsmanship in the
coming generation of anglers, and
at the same time provide them
with instruction in better fishing
methods, etc.
Forest service officials and state
police will assist In planning and
instructing the course, which will
include demonstrations in fire pre
vention and practical lessons in
the written and unwritten laws of
sportsmanship. .
Actual fishing lessons will also
be given, with emphasis on the
proper casting of flies and lures,
tying of lines and leaders, placing
of sinkers and baits and other
things beginning fishermen should
know. ' ' ' ' '
' Monday's meeting is called
for 8 p.m., in the IWA hall on
Bond street. All members of the
association are urged to attend.
