'We'll Do Okay,'
Hub Kittle States
By CHUCK BOISE
Capital Journal Sports Writer
"We have a pretty good team
in the making. You can't lose
all the fine players we did from
last year's pennant winners and
beas strong to start off with."
Such is Ihe current status of
defending Northwest - League
champion Yakima Bears in the
opinion of their manager. Hub
Kittle.. The Bears and the Sa
lem Senators at the moment are
in the midst of a four-game
series at Waters Park with
games three and four coming
up tonight and tomorrow after
noon. "Tell you one thing, though."
the tobacco chawin' ex-pitcher
stated emphatically. "We've
got more power right now than
we had any time last year and
that's going to help us."
Plenty of Power
Kittle was referring a couple
of returnees Herm Lewis. .3M
and 26 homers last year, and
Vince Moreci. .313 and a league
leading 36 homers and several
of his new boys. Mike Coppola,
the new first baseman, led the
Pioneer league with 28 home
runs last year while hitting 303
and some of the other newcom
ers have shown themselves to be
a little heftier with the stick
than last year's slick fielding
outfit.
Cleveland Indian farmhands
this year include Coppola, third
baseman Don McGinnis. Dick
Zuccato, the husky young catch
er, and several of the young
pitchers who have been signed
to Indian contracts by Kittle jn
h'S capacity as a Cleveland
scmit.
"We'll get some help when
the nWer clubs begin cutting
4lwt." Kittle said confidently.

deal when Dick Young is set to

Young was the winingest pitch

22-12 record but has been slow
coming around because of an
operation earlier in the spring.

couple of other Padres, pitcher
Dolan Nichols and catcher Earl
Averill. Jr.: some other double

course. Joe Brnvia.
Kittle confirmed that he had
"Big Joe" of PCL fame all set
to join the Bears this season but
the slugger received such an
attractive offer by the doublc-A

boss could only-1 recommend his
staying south of the border. A
boy that did come north with

Averill Praised
Earl Averill. Jr.. the ex-l'ni-versity
of Oregon star drew
great praise from Kittle.
"Averill is a big league catch
er all the way. He's improving
rapidly and has all the tools.
Is he a "bad b3H'' hitter? Well.
I'll tell you. he's so strong he
can hit any pitch well."
Kittle likes to talk over his
star-studded winter rosters with
the likes ot Mesa, who won 14.
