Use Mall Tribune want ads, By RL1 SHELL NEW LAND Associated Press Sports Writer SAN FRANCISCO. (AP) In the matter of young pitching blood this season the Paclflo Coast league has undergone a definite swing to the left. . Southpaw mound rookies stand out In the big far western Class AA loop. They're young In years but old tim ers in experience. Ken Bheehan and Jimmy Rego, both 30 years old and not long out 01' Oakland, Cel., high schools, an swirling their first season In organ ised ball but each has had many years of semi-pro experience. They are rated as prospect of the first water and both bustled Into the role of regular In their open ing year. Sheehan, somewhat under sized as men of baseball go, stands 8 feet 7 Inches and weighs a mere 160 pounds, but the San Francisco Seal owners say he la two years fur ther advanoed than was Vernon Go mez when the present Yankees' ace ci) me to the Seals aa a clumsy fledg ling. ... . "Another Wilbur Cooper" In mound action Sheehan la lik ened to Wilbur Cooper, the one-time Pirates' star. The young fellow has fair speed and curves and plenty of courage under fire. Rego was signed by Oakland aa a high school boy two years ago but remained In the bush circuits at horn? until this season, whsn the Oaks, desperately In need of pitch ing help, outfitted him with a Coast league uniform. He made good from the time he fired the first ball across the plat and now the management envisions vhla 8 foot 8 Inch youth who weighs 170 pounds as future ma jor league bait. unlike his townsman, sneehan, the Rego boy can make the ball amoke and at the same time he la blessed with good control. Rego was a semi pro teammate of Harry ("Cookie") Lavagetto, rookie second baseman, now making good with the Pirates, and the Oaks signed the pair at the same time. Sullivan On Tiger "String" Hollywood is preparing 23-year-old Joe Sullivan for a big league career but already there are etrlngs attach ed to bla husky southpaw from Ma- nette, Wash. The Detroit Tigers, who sent him to the coast on option, have first call on hla services. Sullivan has traveled the baseball trail a bit longer than either Shee han or Rego. Last year he played for Beaumont In the Texas league. Hla coast performances stamp him aa polished workman in the matter of minor league play, Sullivan Is the biggest lot the southpaw trio, bulking 178 pounds and standing 8 feet HVi inches, Three of (lie Paclflo CotMt leagues moot prom I Ring voune; men this Keaion nre left-handed pitchers.

(Spl.) Tentative plans for the develooment of the Lava Beds National Monument by the national park sen-ice were told this week by park officials. The Improvement of rotids will offer one of the main pro jects, to be followed by other develop, ments In the due course of time. While the present roads In the monument have been tn use for some time, the proposed improvements will provide motorists with more direct accessibility to the numerous points of Interest. A loop route of 35 miles tn length Is planned for motor trips taking visitors to and by the out standing lava caverns and to the his torical Indian battlegrounds where a group of 71 Indians battled hundreds of soldiers for more than five months before finally surrendering. One of the main entrance roads leading from the north bounardy of the monument, reached from Mer rill, Klamath county, to IncVnn Wells, lava beds headquarters, Is also to undergo extensive Improvements. It is probable co-operation will be forthcoming from other agencies to Improve the route from Merrill to the monument boundary line, facili tating motor trips to this scenic at traction. Composed mostly of lava flows, the 45,000 acres of the area is without flowing water, necessitating plans for the provision of a water supply. It Is probable test wells will be drilled to determine where the best supply will be available. In view of the composition of the area, water will : probably not be found until a detith ! between 500 and 1000 feet has been! reached. j Engaged for the last two or three weeks making a general geologic sur-, vey of the monument. Dr. Carl Swartzlow, ranger-naturalist and ge- j ologist, has learned numerous bits of Interesting Information concern- lng the area. In a short time he Is 1 to make a report which promises to oe of general interest coi,cerrlrig the lava beds, of which the public u a whole has not yet a general under standing. O. S. C.
