Out for Diamond Drill
By FRED DOWN
United Press International
Charlie Dressen feels a lot
younger today thanks to old
pros Warren Spahn and Red
Schoendienst.
In fact, the 61-year-old man
ager of the Milwaukee Braves
could have danced an Irish jig
after the roles played by
Spahn and Schoendienst in
Wednesday's 4-2 victory over
the American League cham
pion White Sox.
Spahn, 38, pitched five shut
out innings and allowed the
White Sox only three hits in
his first competitive appear
ance of the spring while Scho
endienst, making his first start
since stricken by tuberculosis
after the 1958 season, played
errorless ball at second base
and drove in a run with a
fifth-inning single.

Wednesday night to defeat
the farriors, 111 - 105, and
take 1-0 lead in the best-of-sevc,n
Xastern Division finals
of the National Basketball
Association playoffs.
The St. Louis Hawks drew
first blood in the Western
finals by defeating the Min
neapolis Lakers, 112-99.
Before the playoffs began,
Bob Cousy mentioned that
Chamberlain would have to
be "100 per cent effective"
for the Warrior victory. Wilt
made it in the scoring col
umn, but he couldn't top Bill
Russell in rebounding as the
6-10 Celt edged Chamberlain
in retrieves, 30-29.
Sharman High
Sharman was Boston's high
man with 25 points.
St. Louis, recalling last
year's upset by the Lakers in
the playoffs lost little time in
wrapping up this one.
The Hawks, with playmak-1
er Slater Martin riding the
bench with a muscle injury,
had its scoring punch of Cliff
Hagan and Bob Pettit work
ing to perfection. Hagan tal
lied 29 points and Pettit
scored 23 while nabbing 19
rebounds to stall the. Laker
machine.
Elgin Baylor, who averaged
T9.3 points per game for Min

watching the Braves hand the
White Sox their first loss after
four victories in the Grape
fruit League.
"Those are the kind of per
formances that make a team
look like a world champion,"
said Dressen. "There's nothing
like a couple of old pros to
make you look good.
Spahn, a 20-game winner 10
times, wants strong spring
showings to persuade Dressen
that he should work on a reg

dienst, of course, is bidding
to make one of baseball's most
dramatic comebacks in compe

win his second base job.
Hurls No-Hitter
The first no-hitter of 1960
was turned in when Ben Dan
iels and Jim Umbricht pitched
the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 5-0
win over the Detroit Tigers.
Daniels, who was 7-9 with
a 5.44 earned run average
with Pittsburgh last season,
struck out four and allowed
only one batter to reach base
on a hit batsman for five in
nings. Then Umbricht, 14-8
and 2.78 with Salt Lake City,
also fanned four and retired
12 batters in order over the
last four frames. Bill Virdin
had three hits to pace the
Pirates 11-hit attack.

Central Point - Depth of
talent in the pitching depart
ment is a Comet shortcoming
as the Crater high baseball
squad drills for its 1960 sea
son. Coach BUI Piche has six
lettermen, some capable aspir
ants up from the junior var
sity and a number of other
promising candidates.
One veteran twirler is on
hand for the Comets. He's
Bill Anhorn, two-year letter
man who has done some fine
hill work for the high school
and in American Legion jun
ior ball. His cousin, John An
horn, an outfield monogram
man, is being groomed for
mound work. 'John did some
Legion tossing last summer.
Other lettermen are Jerry
Korbol, first base and two
year man; Ed Allen, catcher;
Ron Hale, third base and Gary
Johnson, outfield.
52 Answer Call
Among those up from the
jayvees are Mike Pepper,
third base; Jeff Anhorn (broth
er of Bill), catcher; Jim Allen,
first base; Loyal Higinbotham,
outfield; Deny Samples, pitch
er; and Doug Pfaff, being
switched from first base to
pitcher. Three freshmen hope
fuls are Pat Pepper, second
base; Mike Glines, shortstop,
and Louis Alvarez, infield.
Bill Allen is an aspirant
with no experience, who is
showing . promise as an out
fielder.
Crater has been drilling at
baseball since Feb. 29 when
52 boys answered the call.
However, some of these candi
dates did not report until
their basketball activity was
completed.
The Comets open their sea
son at home on March 25 with
a doublebill against Del Norte,
of Crescent City, Calif. They
play a home game with Yreka,
Calif., on the following day.
Crater will play its home tus
sles on a field on the high
school grounds this year. For
a couple of seasons they used

edge of Medford.
Junior varsity drills will

Bruins Post
Hockey Win
By United Press International
The Boston Brums, first
National Hockey League team
to beat Olympic goalie Jack
McCartan, remained hopeful
today of gaining a spot in the
Stanley Cup playoffs.
Third-period goals by Bron
co Horvath and Dick Meiss
ner carried the Bruins to a
3-2 triumph over McCartan
and the New York Rangers in
Wednesday night's only NHL
action.
It was the first defeat suf
fered by the Rangers since
McCartan moved into their
net after leading the U.S.
team to victory in the Winter
Olympics.
But more important to the
Bruins, it moved them to
within two points of the
fourth - place Detroit Red
Wings in their skirmish for
the final berth in the Stanley
Cup playoffs. Both teams now
have only two regular season
games remaining.
