Elliott, Runnels
Figured To Help
Senator's Cause
Orlando, Fla. (U.R) There
isn't any pennant talk in the
spring training camp of the
Washington Senators, but Man
ager Bucky Harris believes that
better times are ahead for his
ball club.
He based that belief Saturday
on what he called "two surprise
packages I might come up with
this season.
The No. 1 "package" as he
calls it is Glenn Elliott, a south
paw pitcher, who failed to make
the grade in a previous trial
with the Boston Braves.
From Sacs
The Senators bought Elliott
from Sacramento of the Pacific
Coast League after he won 14
games . while losing the same
number in 1951. Harris went aft
er the hurler upon the advice of
Joe Gordon, manager at Sacra
mento. The No. 2 package- is short
stop James Runnels. - "
"I wouldn't be surprised if
Runnels wound up being our
best percentage hitter in 1952,"
Harris said.
"He doesn't have power, but
he is a line drive hitter and he
came along fast last season. Re
member that two years ago he
was playing in a bush league in
Texas so he's come very fast and
still is developing. And there's
nothing wrong with his fielding."

FISJC SCREEN BUILT AT CENTRAL
POINT Conservation Agent Bert Peck is
shown looking over a model rotary fish screen
at' the new state game commission plant at
Central Point where an open house was held on
Thursday. The paddle-wheel rotates the screen
in a self-cleaning action that means it can be un
attended for long periods. Screens in various
sizes are manufactured at Central Point for the
commisison -and are placed strategically along
streams throughout Oregon to keep fish from
entering irrigation diversions. The Central
Point plant with Peck in charge, does various
mechanical and engineering jobs for the com
mission in addition to screen manufacture. All
fabrication and assembly work for screens is
done at plant. The 50 by 120-foot aluminum
building is designed for rapid assembly. It has
welding and carpentry shops and large storage
facilities for materials. Rotary fish screens cost
from $210 to $1,200 each, depending .on size
and location. More than 500 are maintained by
the game commission. (Brainerd photo)

Miche Wins Santa Anita Handicap
After Foul Disqualifies Intent
Arcadia, Cal. (U.R) Mrs.
John Payson Adams' Miche who
finished second in the $141,200
Santa Anita handicap Saturday
by a length, was declared the
winner by the stewards who
ruled he was fouled by Intent in
the run down the stretch.
Prep Playoffs
To Be Studied
Ashland (U.R) A group of
high school officials will meet
at Eugene March 22 to discuss
all phases of state athletic post
season tournaments and playoffs.
Roland Parks, chairman of the
committee, said here Saturday
Parks, chairman of the super
intendents and principals com
mitee, said the body is merely
an organization to make recom
mendations. He said that neither the super
intendents and principals asso
ciation nor his committee had
taken any steps toward elimin
ating the class A football play
offs. He added that his commit
tee doesn't have the power to
legislate high school athletic
rules.
"SCOOTER" IN
St. Petersburg (U.R) Phil
Rizzuto ended his holdout Satur
day by signing with the New
York Yankees for $45,000. Riz
zuto's new contract makes he
and 21-game winner Vic Raschi
the highest paid members of the
world champions.
Intent had finished a full
length in front of the South
American grey but as they
crossed the finish line the stew
ards posed the "inquiry" sign
and there was a 10-minute delay
in ruling the results of the race
official until the officials - saw
the movies of, the finish. Intent
was placed second.
After viewing the pictures in
their little anteroom off the
track, the stewards decided that
Miche had been fouled and they
took down Intent's number and
put up Miche's as the winner of
the race.
The disqualification did not
affect the other horses in the
money in the rich mile and a
quarter winter classic. Be Fleet
was third, with Bed O'Roses
fourth while the six to five fa
vorite, Hill Prince, finished a
well-beaten fifth.
Ted Williams Inks Pact
But Headed For Marines
Sarasota, Fla. U.R) Ted
Williams signed a one year con
tract with the Red Sox Saturday
just as if he expected to be with
the team all year instead of an
ticipating his recall to the Marine
corps May 2.
While nothing ever is an
nounced by the Sox as to the size
of his salary, it was presumed
that he was given the same con
tract as last year which reputedly
was for $90,000. It will not be
worth ten cents to him, if he goes
into the service. .
