Coach Favors
Rule Changes
About Fouling
ST LOUIS m - Little Eddie
Hickcy, long a student of the
game, thinks it's high time he and
his fellow coaches do something
about excessive fouling in college
basketball
The veteran St Louis University
coach lays the problem right in
the laps of the coaches, because,
says Mickey, it's the coaches who
have caused the problem
"There's no doubt," charged
Hickcy, who is president of the
National Assn of College Basket
ball coaches, "but that present day
defense borders strongly on inten
tional fouls to prevent the other
team from gaining an advantage
with the possibility of a field goal.
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.

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

hit. 305 and led in doubles and
was second in RBIs. 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.

hitters, hit .343 Mr Vancouver and
will be player-manager at third
base for the Senators the next
season.
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."
Luby. added that Tanselli has im
proved greatly in the past two
years and can pull the ball to right
field to help the Beavers.
