Manager Claims Detroit
Is One of Teams to Beat
By LEO PETERSEN
(United Press Sparta Editor)
Lakeland, Fla., March 9 (U.F9
Robert (Red) Rolfe, in his sopho
more season as a major league
manager, today saw his Detroit
Tigers as one of the clubs to beat
for the 19S0 American league
pennant.
"If we get the breaks we could
take it," he said as he directed
his club through a hard three
hour workout at its spring train
ing base here.
"We are in a lot better shape
than a year ago and if we get
a fast break, like the Yankees
did a year ago, we could be
mighty tough to beat."
He is particularly happy that
he has Gerry Priddy to play
second base.
"That was our weak point
last year," he explained. "We
had the fielding there, but not
the hitting. Priddy will take
care of that so if Dick Kry
lioski comes through at first
base for us, we should have
no infield worries. Weakness
in that inner defense kept us
from finishing any higher than
fourth last year.
"Now we believe we have cor
rected our weaknesses. And our
outfield of Hoot Evers, Johnny
Groth and Vic Werlz is a year
older and should be among the
best in the league. And, of
course, we have outstanding
pitchers with Hal Newhouser,
Art Houtteman, Virgil Trucks,
Ted Gray and Freddie Hutchin
son as our starters. That means
that if Paul Calvert, Hal White
or Dizzy Trout come through for
us in relief we have no pitching
worries.
He classed the Red Sox and
the Yankees as the outstanding
clubs in the league and the
"ones we have to beat."
Ranking right behind them he
listed his own team Cleveland
and Philadelphia.
"I expect the Yankees to
make a deal with Washington
whereby they will get either
first baseman Eddie Robinson
or pitcher Ray Scarborough,"
he said. "If they do, boy, will
they be strong! And if the Red
Sox get off to a good start,
they'll be plenty tough to beat.
."But we have a chance along
with Cleveland and Philadelphia
You can't sell any club short
which . has three pitchers like
Bob Lemon Mike Garcia and Bob
Feller. And the Athletics will be
tougher this year, too."
Veteran Ump Scoffs at
Sissy View of Base Rule
Tucson, Ariz., Mar. 9 (Ti
Bill Summers, veteran of the
American league umpiring
staff, wants it understood that
there is no danger of big
league baseball going sissy
through the act of its rules
committee.
Don't worry too much, he
advises, about this year's new
regulation which many stu
dents think will prevent a
base runner from "taking out"
the pivot man on a double play
at second.
The play, one of the most
spectacular of the game, will
still be used within reason,
Bill says. A runner will have
to be guilty of "obvious un
sportsmanship" before he in
currs the prescribed penalty.
"All the new rule does Is
give us umpires the power to
stop some fellows from chas
ing the second baseman or
shortstop clear out on the
grass in trying to break up a
double play," Summers ex
plains. "As long as the runner stays
within reach of the bag either
with a foot or a hand we'll
let him go into second as hard
as he wants to. That's part
of the game.
"But when he clearly isn't
trying to do anything but
knock a man down we'll call
it on him, and the batter go
ing to first will be called out,
no matter whether he might
have beaten the relay."
Manager Lou Boudreau of
the Cleveland Indians asked
Bill if he didn't think enforce
ment of the rule might create
many a ruckus during the sea
son. "Not at all, Lou," he re
plied. "And I can tell you
why. For about the first or
second time we call it on your
team, you're going to holler
plenty. And then you're go
ing to get thinking what it's
cost you, and the next time
you'll tell that runner of yours
to be careful how he goes in
to second.
"Not only that, but the bat
ter, finding himself called out
without a chance to reach first,
is coing to notice that all he
got out of it was a time at
bat on his record. He's like
ly to say something to the
runner, too. Oh, no, it'll
straighten itself out."
"Bill," said Lou, "I believe
you've got something there."
Parachute Jumps at
60,000 Feet Planned
EI Centro, Calif., March 8 UP)
Parachute jumps at altitudes up
to 60,000 feet just under the
height where blood boils in
your veins will be attempted
this summer at White Sands, N.
M., proving grounds.
The leaps will be made from
F-80 jets by navy and air force
chutists, says Lt. Com. J. A
Morrison. Morrison's parachute
experimental unit demonstrated
new types of 'chute-releasing
equipment at low altitudes here
yesterday.
Morrison said fliers could sur
vive above 60,000 feet only in
pressurized, insulated capsules
such as those recently developed
by the navy. These cockpit cap
sules can be ejected from the
plane in emergencies and are
lowered to earth by large para
chutes.
New Housing
Project Broke
Seattle, March 8 A gov
ernment-guaranteed 544-apart-ment
project south of Seattle
was reported on the financial
rocks today.
It appeared to be heading, at
least temporarily, into govern
ment hands.
A representative of the ,Sun
Life Assurance Company of
Canada said the firm is planning
to foreclose on its $4,101,000
mortgage on the Lake Burien
Heights project.
The project was built during
the post-war housing shortage,
when the government guaran
tee against mortgage losses was
started. The government agen
cy is obligated to give the assur
ance company government hous
ing debentures covering B9 per
cent of the amount of the mort
gage. The 3 5-acre development in
cludes 44 two-story buildings.
It is near the Boeing Aircraft
company's main plant. A de
crease in jobs and a drop in the
population of the area from the
wartime peak was blamed by
mortgage men for the financial
setback.
Ground was broken for the
project in 1947. It was the first
of many built m Seattle and the
surrounding area under the
mortgage guarantee provision of
the federal housing act
Attorney DeWitt Williams said
the effect of the foreclosure suit,
if successful, would be to give
the title to the project to the
government.

the eastern areas today. Severe
thunder and lightning storms hit
some parts of Connecticut, New
York, Pennsylvania and New
Jersey last night. Power and
telephone communications were
disrupted in some areas.
The death toll in the blizzard
which whipped across Nebraska
mounted to four yesterday.
Scores were injured in Nebraska
and other parts of the midwest
by the storm. Property damage
was unofficially estimated at
more than $1,000,000 In Nebras
