By CHARLES TAYLOR Bradenton Beach, Fla. (U.R)- Fred Hutchinson, new manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, is spending his winter trying to scout new Ditching power. Hutchinson hasn't made any deals so far, but he and Cardinal General Manager Frank Lane may get together soon to cook up some trades. "Pitching is our biggest weak ness," Hutchinson said, "but we , also need some right-handed poster hitters to help us out." The Cardinal manager point- ed to his pitchers' earned -run average of 4.56 for last season, worst in the National league, as testimony to the need for im- Lewis, Chris tea n Fight in Tacoma Two Medford Police Athletic league boxers, Larry Lewis and Loren Christean, left last night to participate in the Tacoma, Wash., Golden Gloves tourney. They were accompanied by two PAL representatives, Police Sgt. Lyle Perkins and . Coach Hugh Jennings. The tourney is today and Sat urday. Lewis, an Oregon AAU champ, was marked the favorite in his weight for the Tacoma event. Lincoln, Jackson Remain Unbeaten Lincoln and Jackson kept un beaten in city elementary school basketball play yesterday. Lincoln clubbed Roosevelt 30 to 8, Jackson bounced Jefferson 29 to 17 and Washington rapped St. Mary's 27 to 14. Jackson and Lincoln are tied for league lead with two wins each. St. Mary's fifth and sixth graders are playing a complete schedule against the public school clubs but its games , do not count in the league. SIT-UP CHAMP Alhambra, Calif. 'CU.P.) Dave Dabov, a 17-year-old star ath lete at Alhambra high school, claimed a new record of 5,600 sit-ups today, surpassing what is believed to be the old unofficial mark of 5,555 set by a naval sea- tian during the war at the Great Lakes Training center. Dabov lost eight pounds during the three and one-half hours it took him to accomplish the feat, wit nessed by the school's gymnastic coach, Chuck McFate. TO HONOR BRENNAN New York '(U.R) Terry Bren- nan, Notre Dame football coach, will be honor at the fifth annual awards dinner of the sports lodge of B'nai B'rith Saturday night. Brennan will be present ed with a plaque for "high prin- ciple and achievement in sports." The presentation will be made by Jim Crowley, one of the famed "Four Horsemen" and presently chairman of the Pennsylvania State Boxing com mission. For a GUARANTEED GOOD USED CAR Before You Buy Be Sure To Look the Lot Over at ... . MORSE MOTORS Time provement and new blood, "What we need is two or three 20-game winners, then we'd be in good shape," he said. Hutchison, however, didn't discredit the present Cardinal mound staff and said he expects his pitchers to be stronger in 1956. Possible Comeback . Harvey Haddix and Wilmer Mizell are two of the hurlers Hutchinson will be counting on most heavily. Haddix, he said, "had a pretty bad year" last sea son, but should make a come back. Mizell, who recently got out of the service, has been the big star on the Cuban winter circuit and has set a strikeout record for the loop. Willard Schmidt and Larry Jackson, both with just a year of experience under their belts, could become "real stars," Hut chinson said. He's also counting heavily on Tom Poholsky, who wasn't used much until the last part, of the season last year. When it comes to hitting, Hut chinson has heavy left handed strength in Stan (Trie Man) Mu sial, Wally Moon, Bill Virden and switcher Red Schoendienst, who also bats right-handed. What Hutchinson wants is a good right-handed power hitter. He expects some improvement from third baseman Ken Boyer and shortstop Alex Grammas, both of whom have potential power. Promising Rookie In the infield, Hutchinson will be watching Don Blasin game closely in spring training. The, Omaha rookie could step into Schoendienst's shoes at sec ond, or may take over at short stop if he "comes along" fast enough. Dick Schofield, a bonus kid, is another shortstop the Cards figure to be prominent in the lineup in the future. "I'll be working with 11 play ers who have been up from the minors just one year, and five who have been up for only two years. Any of these boys are po tential stars and we're looking for them to develop," he said. "This year, I think St. Louis will be a much better team. We may not win the pennant Brooklyn's the team we'll have to beat to do that but we'll wind up a lot better than sev enth where we finished last sea son." ' 4-H Club News Clothing Club .

Comment On By HARMAN United Prag Washington (U.R) My friend and informant at U.S. Army headquarters in E u r o p e, Maj. James V. Campbell, for wards this one. It concerns Capt. Dale J. (Jack) Critten berger of An derson, I n d., and his pretty wife "Pooky," who calls San Antonio, Tex., home. Jack is Harmon Nichols the son oi re tired Lit. Gen. Willis Critten berger, now the president of the Greater New York Fund. Anyhow, Jack thought he would use up some leave by taking his wife to Garmisch, the famed ski resort in Southern Bavaria. They checked into a hotel and after dinner decided they would go to a hockey game at the ice stadium in the town. One team in blue uniforms, the other in red. Relaxing there in the open air with the ther mometer a "comfortable" 20 above, the couple cared not which team was which. Hockey is hockey. Blue scored first. The crowd roared. Blue scored again, and there came another roar. Real quick, it should be stated that Crittenberger, like his pap py, is a tank man and therefore often outnumbered He started to holler like mad for the under dog. . Cheers Underdog "Come on Red," he screamed in German, "Let's make a hockey game of this. Give 'em the business." The crowd, which outnum bered the captain and Pooky 8000 to two, booed and hissed the couple by that very percent age. . Straight, of the "Red" team scored. The team of Critten berger and Crittenberger collab orated in a howl of approval. The partisan crowd, in favor of the "Blue' 'team, turned on the visitors, via oral insults. Ger man words our friends didn't savvy. Jack turned to the Bavarian sitting next to him and wanted to know what was the matter with the crowd. Don't they like underdogs? The Bavarian asked a rather sensible question. Said he: "Do you folks want an escort out of here?" Then Jack and Pooky's neigh bor explained that the "Blue" team was ' local and that the "Red"' team came from Prague. Czechoslovakia, under the thumb of the Communists. - Jack came alert and he and his bride began yelling their heads off for. the outfit done up in blue. The sensible thing to do under the circumstances. "Come on Blue!" . Slight Cheer The Crittenbergers escaped and when Pooky said "Murder the bums!" a small polite cheer trickled from the throng. That wasn't the only mistake the couple made on the little 9 ROCKET OLDS R,VERSIDESe95 2-6209 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE ELEVEN This and That W. NICHOLS Futar Writer leave trip. Next morning at breakfast they tried to make small talk with the waiter at the hotel in Garmisch. It was snowing outside and the flakes were piled up eight or so inches deep and the Crittenberg ers were worried about getting home. Jack and Pooky ordered eggs and stuff and remarked to the waiter: "'Rotten day outside." The waiter said: "Nicest day we've had all win ter. Will there be anything else? The day is nice for skiing." The folks from Indiana and Texas decided they had had it. They paid their check and head ed back for headquarters where it was nice around the fire and a man and wife could wag. their tongues without fear of having to slug it out verbally or other wise.
