Herb Score On Disabled Player List Cleveland (U.R) The Cleve land Indians elected to pay a 30 day "penalty" in exchange for Herb Score's career today as in creasingly optimistic reports in dicated the stricken southpaw pitcher may be back on the fir ing line by June 15. Struck in the right eye by a batted ball Tuesday night. Score was placed on the Indians' dis abled list Wednesday by General Manager Hank Greenberg, who nevertheless conceded, "Herb possibly might be abe to pitch before 30 days." Whenever a baseball player is place on the disabled list, he must remain inactive for 30 days. This means that Score will not be able to rejoin his team mates until June 8. In announcing his decision to place Score on the disabled list, Greenberg said, "The doctors tell us that . . . Herb will be unable to pitch for at least three weeks. In this instance, we cannot think of one or two ball games but only the future health and wel fare of one of baseball's best per formers." Satisfactory Progress Meanwhile, Dr. Charles Thomas, a Cleveland eye special ist, examined Score again Thurs day night at Lakeside hospital and reported "satisfactory pro gress," although he cautioned "We do not yet know the condi tion of the retina." The specialist also indicated that if Score survives the injury with some vision in the eye, the injury should not affect his ca reer. He said all examinations thus far have indicated that Score will be able to see out of the in jured eye. "The question now is what, if any, will be the percentage of loss of vision," Thomas added. Thomas postponed an X-ray examination of Score's right eye Thursday until either today or Saturday. The 23-year-old "million dol lar" strikeout artist will be kept in a quiet and darkened room until the eye clears sufficiently to permit an examination of the retina. If there is no detachment. Score could be released from the hospital quite soon. World Dash Mark Could Be Broken By HAL WOOD Fresno, Calif. (U.R) Three of the greatest sprinters in the world go to their starting blocks in the West Coast Relays here Saturday night and, if everything goes right there could be an electrifying new world record in the 100-yard dash. "We've got the three fastest men in the world in Bobby Mor row of Abilene Christian; Lea mon King of California and Mike Agostini of Trinidad and Fresno State," says meet Director Flint Hanner. "We have the fastest track in the world." Patton Record Threatened "Now if we can only come up with the'perfect weather and a perfect start to round things out we might hit that 'impossible' mark of 9.2 seconds." Morrow will be favored to win the race, because he is the type of man who runs to beat the op position as he proved by win ning both the 100 and 200 meter events in the Melbourne Olym pics and if a man ever will be pushed, this should be the time. Fresno, Calif. (U.R) Things were smooth again with the West Coast relays today after a timely coincidence soothed the injured feelings of San Jose State and nipped a feud of Western schools in the bud. ' San Jose State withdrew from the meet, oldest in the West, Thursday in a huff after its sprint relay team was assigned to competition against club and service teams instead of against crack college and university teams. However the University of California withdrew from the sprint relay for other reasons and the lane this opened was assigned to San Jose State. The Spartans then agreed to compete.
