The defense gives up one point (scored on a free throw awarded for a foul) for the chance of scor ing two themselves (by gaining control of the ball after the free throw allcmpO." The intentional foul, however, is just one of the criticisms Hickey and other coaches, too have against present-day basketball. In a quick rundown, Hickey also stands against the "one-one" free throw rule, the "three - minute" rule and the penalty forcing a player from the game when he commits his filth personal foul. Under a plan drafted by Hickey for submission to the coaches at their Kansas City convention next month all four "problems" ate eliminated. Hk-kcy's revised penalty system would allow a player tu remain in a game no matter how many per sonal fouls he collected. Hut the player's fourth and succeeding fouls would be termed "excessive personals" and would carry a stiff penalty. An "excessive" foul in Mickey's bonk would permit the olfended player as many as three free throws. At the least he would re ceive two.

JONES Salem baseball followers will be gin learning the Harvey Storey story, Wednesday evening, starting with an introduction to 2a0 at a welcome dinner and developing into a real friendship as the new manager guides the fortunes of the 1954 Senators. The banquet, at 6:30 at the Mar ion hotel, will find the 37-year-old veteran of 18 baseoall seasons tell ing his plans and hopes for his sec ond season as player-manager. This next season he will be work ing under a general manager, Hugh Luby, against whom he play ed seven years in the Pacific Coast league. ' Storey Signed at 19 Storey and Luby have a lot in common in their careers besides wanting a winning team. Luby's first year in the PCL was 1937 with Oakland, while Storey, signed at 19 by Portland to be farmed out, began his slugging for ban Fran cisco in 1938. Both were infield ers. Each saw military service with the Navy and each had a fling at the major leagues. Storey, now 37, brings a potent bat with him, an ability which earned him PCL all-star berths in 1946, 1947 and 1948 with Portland. He led the league in hitting in 1946 with .326, led in doubles in 1947 and was runner-up in runs batted in, 119, being elbowed out by a grand slam homer hit by Max West of San Diego on the last day of the season. His tours around the circuit have had him playing with the Seals, Los Angeles, Portland and San Diego, plus hitches with Tacoma the first year of the Western In ternational in 1937, with Milwau kee and Tulsa and a couple sea sons with scmipro clubs. Storey was a high school star in baseball, football and track at Forest Grove when the talent hunt ers noticed his hitting ways. After one semester at Pacific univer sity's baseball diamond he worked out one night with the Portland Beavers and was signed at 19, with his parents' permission, in 1935 for the 1936 season. Bill Cissell was the Beaver manager. Helped Initiate WIL After 1936 spring training young Storey found himself playing in the Vancouver, B.C., semipro league which preceded the WIL. Four clubs in Vancouver played four or five times a week and vere about Class C or B quality. Bob Brown, later WIL president, promoted the semipro league in which Storey was leading hitter at .354. He finished the year with Port land, pennant winner. After 1937 spring training, Portland sent Storey to Tacoma, where he play ed short and third in the first WIL year, batting .347. Portland found it couldn't buy him back from Ta coma because of a ruling by Com missioner Judge Landis and had to place him on waivers. San Francisco purchased btorey outright for 1938, where he saw limited service at short, third and outfield because of an injury which kept him out for a month. What proved to be his best year found Storey playing regular shortstop in 1939 with the Seals, where he whanged the ball at a 351 dip for Manager Lefty O Doul, fourth highest in the league. Broke Leg in 1940 Sold to the Chicago Cubs at the end of the season for 1941 delivery, Storey stayed with the heals in 1940 only to meet with an accident which put a crimp in his promis ing career. June 2 he broke his left leg by sliding back to first base, closing his season early and hampering his efforts for a couple of years or more because of a faulty job of setting the bone. On the same 'Frisco team were Dom inic DiMaggio, Ted Norbert and Brooks Holder. in spring training in 1941 with the Cubs, Storey learned from an X-ray that the small bone above his ankle had been split down, so that he could play only spasmodic ally with Los Angeles that year, hitting .280, on option from Chi cago. The Milwaukee club, then owned hy Bill Vecck, bought Storey in 1942 nnd he went to Tulsa in the Texas league after a month, where the hot weather helped his leg tremendously. . Storey played every inning of 124 games, hitting .299 or .301 as shortstop, third and left field. Then Come the War War and the Navy claimed his time for 1943, 1944 and 1945 and used -him on service baseball teams, and he was carried on the Los Angeles roster. Heporlng lo the Angels in 1946, he started the season and then something liap ened which allowed him to show up the judgment of the Los An geles management. They released Storey and Port land signed him. so all he did in Beaver uniform was win the PCL balling crown with .326r It wasn't until after the last game, in which he got four for six, that he dis covered he won the title under Manager Marv Owen With Portland in 191".

In 1948. Storey batted .305 again at third base. Portland traded Storey lo San Diego afler the start of the 1949 season, where he batted .301, hit 17 home runs and batted in 96 runs. It was there Storey had one of his greater thrills, outhitting Luke Easter with three home runs in one game in the Los Angeles park. Another thrill he recalls was as a pinchhitter with San Diego in 1949 when he turned on his former Portland teammates. In the 10th inning with the score tied 0 0, he hit the first pilch from Ad Liska for a home run with bases loaded! In 1950, he didn't play regularly but appeared in 150 games and hit .367, earning 15 hits as a pinchhit ter. The old demon injury popped up again in 1951 when he broke a thumb at San Diego after getting a good start, finishing with .260. The thumb cost him six weeks of playing. Rebelled at Being Sold Starting at San Diego in 1952, he found himself sold to Little Rock of the Southern league, but re belled and didn't report. Instead Storey went to Drain, Ore., to play semipro ball for Roy Helscr, who was in somewhat the same boat by not doing the bidding of Port land. The Padres suspended Storey until last winter when Van couver bought Storey to manage the Cupilunos. whom he piloted to fourth and third places in each half. Vancouver, at the same lime, was- iast in team batting and second in fielding. Storey hit .343 at third base. Releasing of Storey came about through change of ownership. Dewey Soriano of Seattle taking over and bringing in Bill Brenner of l.cwiston as player-manager. Storey married a Tacoma girl in 1939. He and Marian now have twin sons, Harvey, dr., and Charles, 7, and a daughter, Be becca. 6. Perhaps when Storey is intro duced Wednesday night he will re mind Luby of the time Storey robbed Luby of glory with a well placed glove. It was opening day of 1947 with San Francisco at Portland and the Angels had bases loaded, one out nnd Luby al bat. Luby banged a sharp line drive to the left of Storey at third base and he stubbed at it and caught it in spectacular fashion to save the day. On the same team they should be quite a combination, except that Luby has hung up his glove afler 22 years of playing. Ur. V t LamMU or o (.nan. Ml DRS. CHAN . . .

Luby appeared on the Senator hotel program with Gene Tanselli, Senator shortstop who was sold to Portland on a 30-day look-see con tract. It was Storey's bat which "kept Vancouver up," Luby pointed out, for Vancouver was last in team batting and finished fourth in the first half and third in the second half. The Salem roster includes eight or nine, Luby explained, and five of seven pitchers indicate they will be back. The roster includes some rookies yet untried, he said fur ther. "We will have to rely on Pa cific Coast clubs to option us play ers," he said, especially Sacra mento and San Diego. When March rolls around Luby said he would be at their spring camps looking for material. Tanselli said "I hope I can do Salem and Luby justice when I do get to Glendale. I should have a good chance to stay." The short stop indicated he heard he would be tried at third base and said he hopes it's true. "People here have treated me fine and if I don't make the grade in the Coast league I'll be back here at Salem."
