    Groat's salary
to top
after big year
By United Press International
They say Dick Groat looks like
a bank clerk but he ll get the
"Texas oil royalty" treatment
when he steps up to the cashier's
window this year.
The National League's batting
champion and most valuable play
er, Croat signed with the world
champion Pittsburgh Pirates to
day or salary estimated at be
tween $40,000 and $45,000.
"There never was any doubt as
to Dick's signing." said Pirate
1 general manager Joe Brown, who
has lined up just about all the
key Pirates for the 1961 cam
paign. "I hope he has as fine a
year as he had last year and
hope the club enjoys the same
success we did last year.."
Groat, cx-D u k e All-America
basketball player, typified the Pi
rates' rise to their first world
championship in 35 years with his
gritty play. He hedged out Los
Angeles' Norm Larker for the
batting title, .325 to .323, despite
a late-season injury and was the
sparkplug of the team all season.
Mays Signs
The San Francisco Giants an
nounced that they had signed center-fielder
Willie Mays to a pact
believed to call for $35,000, or the
same amount that he made last
season. Terms of the contract
were not ' announced but vice
president Charlie Feeney said:
"It you say that Mays is get
ting the same as he did last year,
that would be a pretty good
guess."
Willie finished third in the Na
tional League batting race last
season with a .319 average. He
led the league with 190 hits and
paced the Giants with 29 homers,
103 runs batted in, 107 scored and
25 stolen bases.
Dick Farrell, hard-throwing re
lief pitcher, agreed to terms with
the Philadelphia Phillies, raising
their satisfied list to 28. Farrell
had a 10-6 record for the last
place Phillies in his fourth sea
son in the majors.
Senator! Sign Three
' The Washington Senators re
vealed they had signed three
. young players first-baseman
R. C. Stevens, who played with
Salt Lake City last season: pitch
er Joe McClain, who was with
Charleston, W. Va., in 1960, and
outfielder Jim King, who hit 24
homers for Toronto of the Inter
national League. . The Senators
have seven players to sign be
fore completing their roster.
Jim Gentile, one of the surprise
packages of the Baltimore Ori
oles' 1960 season, said in San
Francisco that he plans to phone
the club and discuss his salary.
Gentile, who has sent back two
unsigned contracts so far, batted
.292 with 21 homers and 98 runs
batted in last year.
"We're pretty close but still
haven't come to an agreement,"
he said. "So, I'll call the front
office and see if we can get to
gether." Junior loop

'slow' scoring
Nampa in overtime, no less.
Boise slapped a tight zone on
at the onset and Nampa stayed
out front with hopes of pulling
the Bullpups out of uie zone.
Boise wouldn't budge and Nam
pa wouldn't shoot.
Well, you can imagine how the
confusion reigned. By halftime
everybody was scurrying to the
rule books.
The officials found something
they thought would help a rule
that notes whenever the defensive
team is behind or the score tied,
it must go out after the ball every
so often.
So during the second half Boise
would send a man out every 20
seconds or so to comply with the
ruling, and then he'd drop right
back into the, zone.
Both clubs shot six times. But
the verdict was finally decided
in overtime from the foul line
Nampa sinking two straight.
Scorekeepers thought it was a
terrific game.
Saturday's B e n d-T h e Dalles
game doesn t shape up as too
much of a contest but don't be
too sure.
The Indians have won only one
game this season over Pendle
ton early in January. But they
gave Pendleton and Hermiston all
the competition they wanted last
weekend.
. At The Dalles Friday night the
hapless Tribe was leading Hermis
ton 22-14 with only 2:21 left in the
tirst half. ,
But then the Bulldogs caught
fire to trad only 23-21 at half
time. Hermiston went ahead early in
the third period, then The Dalles
tied it up 33-all. Back came the
Bulldogs to lead 40-38 as the third
period ended. ,
Then it was The Dalles' turn to
lake the lead as The Indians
scored five straight points for a
43-40 margin.
With only 2:25 left, The Dalles
led 47-44.
At 1:16 Hermiston closed it to
46-47. The Dalles coach Don Mar
tin instructed the team to hold
on to the ball, but Hermiston got
the ball after a missed shot and
Ron Hiskey made it 48-47 at the
42-second mark the game soon
ending with The Dalles still try
ing to get a winning shot off.
Still, the crown had witnessed
a real thriller. And there were
only 15 fouls called in the game
nine against The Dalles and only
six against Hermiston.

was more hard luck for Martin's
cagers as The Dalles lost a 53-M
battle.
In this one, though, Pendleton
led from the start and had a 48
35 bulge with 4:20 left.
Then the Indians poured on the
steam, but the rally fell short.
The game, however, was not as
close as the final score indicates.
But it was still a toueh one to
lose for tlie Indians, who continue
to go all out despite a disastrous
season.
Even a neck injury failed to
slow Roseburg's great Jim Jarvis
last weekend.
Jarvis injured his neck and sat
out the entire second half of the
Roseburg-Willamette game won
by Roseburg 69-61. Still, his 11
points for one half of play was
a good performance.
Saturday, sore neck and all, he
was in the battle all the way as
Roseburg scored an important
68-66 double overtime win over a
tough South Eugene bunch.
Jarvis hit four of his squad's
10 points in the first overtime and
wound up high Roseburg scorer
with 24 points.
But what a tough league
Roseburg (8-l),-Marshfield (7-2),
South Eugene (6-3), North Bend
(6-3), North Eugene (5-4). And
any one of those squads is good
enough to handle most of the
other teams in the state.
Even sixth and seventh-place
Springfield (4-5) and Willamette
(2-7) can't be taken lightly, as
witness Roseburg's narrow win
over Willamette Friday.
Knew it was bound to happen
department: The headline in Sat
urday's Pendleton East Oregonian
read "Love Romances Hoop in
49 to 36 victory."
Actually, Mike Love was only
one of three players to hit 11
in Prineville's 49-36 win over Pen
dleton. But what the heck, a headline
writer has to have a little fun
now and then.
