Camp Reports Like
Medical Bulletins
By TIM MORIARTY
Those daily reports from
baseball's spring training
camps are continuing to read
like medical bulletins.
Five more players - includ
ing Billy O'Dell of the Balti
more Orioles and young Eddie
Haas of the Milwaukee Braves
- were added to today's casu
alty list.
O'Dell, the winning pitcher
In last year's All-Star game,
Injured his back while warm
ing up before Thursday
night's Baltimore-Kansas City
game at Miami.
Taking no chances, the Or
ioles announced O'Dell, who
had a 14-11 record last year,
will be flown to Baltimore
today for a thorough examin
ation. Haas suffered a broken
ankle in an exhibition game
against the St. Louis Card
inals at Bradenton and will
be sidelined for at least eight
weeks.
The Braves have been ham
pered by a mounting injury
list all spring. Second Base
man Mel Roach is still hobbled
by a 1958 leg injury; Third
Baseman Eddie Mathews re
cently was sidelined with a
groin injury, and First Base
man Joe Adcock has been
nursing a swollen knee.
Other clubs also are hav
ing their troubles. The Phila
delphia Phillies announced
that veteran southpaw Curt
Simmons has bone chips in
his left elbow that may re
quire surgery, reserve catcher
John Blanchard of the New
York Yankees sustained a
bruised right toe, and rookie
Joe Schaffernoth of the Chi
cago Cubs was struck on the
right elbow by a line drive
while pitching batting prac
tice. The Phillies found some-
Jacksonville
Bolstered
By Hurlers
Jacksonville - Pitching ap
pears to be a strong point with
the Jacksonville High school
baseball squad this season.
And, it could be a big factor
in a bid by the Redskins to
rise from second place in 1958
to the championship of the
Jackson County B league this
spring.
Lettermen pitchers on the
Jacksonville roster of Coach
Dea Cox are Wayne Cabler
and Rickie Zimmerman. Other
hurlers are Doyle Bransom
and Woody Wilson. Bransom,
a senior who has never played
baseball before, has a strong
arm and may be a starter,
Wilson, is a sophomore play
ing his first high school ball.
Lettermen included Wayne
Goldschmidt, catcher; Ron
Davis, shortstop; Gary Silva,
third base, and Gary Smith,
left field. At first base the
choice looms between Tim
White and Pat Hubbard.
Either Stan Smith or Steve
Isaacs may hold down second
base with Gale Sheppard in
center field and Jerry Win
ningham or Ben Long in right.
Jacksonville has a twinbill
set with Illinois Valley at
Jacksonville on Saturday with
the first game set for 1 pjn.
thing to cheer about when
Robin Roberts turned in a
route-going, 5-3 victory over
the Washington Senators. The
veteran right-hander yielded
seven hits, including homers
by Jim Lemon and Norm
Zauchin.
Brooks Lawrence also went
nine innings in hurling the
Cincinnati Reds to a 2-1 tri
umph over the Los Angeles
Dodgers. Lawrence spaced
seven hits. Bob Lillis collect
ed three singles for the Dodg
ers. Shortstop Andre Rodgers,
hit in the face by a pitched
ball Wednesday, displayed
that "old Oriole spirit", with
a pair of homers that carried
the San Francisco Giants to a
7-5 victory over the Cleveland
Indians.
Mantle Gets Homer
The game was enlivened by
a beaning "rhubarb" in the
eighth inning when Giant
Pitcher Stu Miller hit Vic
Power in the head with one of
his "blazing" slow balls. Jim
Bolger, running for Power,
crashed into Rodgers while
breaking up a double play
and both benches emptied. No
punches were thrown.
A 420-foot home run by
Mickey Mantle sparked the
Yankees to a 7-2 triumph over
the Pittsburgh Pirates. Bob
Turley worked the first seven
innings for the Yanks, allow
ing only four hits. Dick Stuart
homered for the Pirates in
the opening inning.
Elsewhere, the Detroit Tig-
ters turned back the Chicago
White Sox, 5-2, with the help
of a three-run homer by
Rocky Bridges, rookie Dick
Ricketts helped pitch the
Cardinals to a 6-3 victory over
the Braves, Bill Renna's
fourth hit of the game enabled
the Boston Red Sox to edge
the Chicago Cubs, 4-3, in 11
innings, and Al Pilarcik's run
scoring single in the 10th in
ning carried the Orioles to a
4-3 triumph over the Ath
letics.

Portland - Oregon upland
bird gunners had a whale of
a season last year which will
be hard to beat in the com
ing years. Final tabulations
by the game commission show
that more than 1,200,000 up
land birds of all species were
taken by hunters during the
1958 season, exceeding the
1957 take by some 500,000
birds. The pheasant kill was
one of the best in years, and
for quail, Hungarians, and
grouse, hunters doubled the
take of the previous year.
. Pheasant hunters found the
going much to their liking
and reported in with a take
of just over 477,000 of the
colorful ring-necked imports,
exceeding last year's take by
well over 100,000 birds. Suc-i
cess ran high with a reported
take of 4.6 birds per man. Al
most 103,000 scattergunners
hunted pheasants, compared
to about 89,000 the previous
year.
Quail hunters took a
whopping 280,000 birds which
was more than double the
124,000 reported last year.
Again success was high with
a take of 7.2 birds per hunter,
compared to 5.7 in 1957.
About 38,000 hunters were in
the fields for quail, compared
to about 22,000 the previous
year. The quail taken includes
bobwhite, valley, and moun
tain. More than 45,000 Hungar
ians were reported bagged by
some 11,000 hunters, compar
ed to close to 12,000 birds by
more than 5,000 hunters in
1957. Sage grouse hunters out
for the first time since 1953
reported in with a kill of
just over 21,006 of these big
grouse for a success of 2.9
birds per hunter. The 1953
season produced some 11,000
sage grouse.
Almost 16,000 upland bird
hunters went for chukar part
ridge and reported bagging
well over 91,000 of these
colorful, red-legged rimrock
dwellers. Success was 5.8
birds per man. Last year the
take on chukars was just a
little over 10,000 birds for a
success of only 2.0 birds per
hunter.
From the timbered sections
of the state, hunters reported
taking just over 73,500 blue
and ruffed grouse for a sue
cess of 2.7 birds per hunter
Again the take was almost
double the 39,000 grouse re
ported last year. More than
27,000 nimrods hunted blue
and ruffed grouse compared
to about 19,000 hunters the
previous year.
