JrJ Jk NEW YORK, May 24 (P) The Jackson, Mich., baseball school for kids will wind up to morrow with a program that was rained out earlier this month and postponed until the Tigers fin ished their eastern trip. . . . The cooperative venture ot the De troit clu'j, the Jackson Booster ftuN nnH Rpnrpatinn Director Cliff Weatherwax was so suc cessful that several other Micni- it. . . . Battle Creek wUl hold a scoool in June and Kalamazoo will 'operate next year . This department will sketch the idea just'ln case anyone else is inter ested. SCHOOL'S OUTDOORS Instruction at Jackson was provided by Lew Fonseca, Amer ican league promotion man who gave a. lesson on hitting besides showing his films; Jud Haymes, Western Michigan coach, ex plained infield play and Ray Fisher of the University of Mich igan conducted a session for pitchers and .catchers and helped several young hurlers overcome varinnc fmiHc Rmilt Wkh ECan and Councilman Billy RogeU will head the Detroit aeiegauon. .... "It is not a talent school," explains Sports Editor Brick Fleming of the Jackson Citizen Patriot. "It's the first time in my-memory of 25. years of sports that big league and college coaches cooperated in giving the kids something they need free instructions. You should have seen the boys trying to put into practice things that had been taught and demonstrated." . ... .. . FAIR WARNING In announcing the New York World-Telegram's annual contest to select the most valuable play er in local schoolboy baseball cir cles, and reward him with a trip "with Yankees, Giants or Dod gers, Scribe Bill Roeder wrote: We accept no responsibility if our man is forced to play out the season with the club of his selection." f a 1 A ROOKIE A DAY Danny Gardella, Giants: A pickup from a local shipyard league, Danny was shoved into right field when Manager Mel Ott was hurt. He'll stay there as long as he's hitting unless he breaks his neck trying to field a base hit off that right field wall at the Polo Grounds. ... A little miy with a big wallop, he hits like Musial, runs like Rucker and fields like Babe Herman at his worst . . . When a pitcher buzzed one under his chin his first time at bat in the big leagues, Danny asked: Are they afraid of me already?" .. . You can't bench a guy like that, es pecially when he hit .375 on the club's western tour.

When in Medford Stay at HOTEL HOLLAND Thoroughly Modern Joe and Anna Earley Proprietors V. . SI TOMORROW JZt fci iKSSSStt They spelled my name wrong, so I crossed it oftT Wagner May Top Katonen George Wagner, the mean matman who slugged Pete Bcl castro into a two-week layoff in last week's wrestling match at the armory, is favored to top Paavo Katonen, Pacific coast light heavy champ, in the local ring this Friday night. . , This bald-faced statement is a result of much study of the ef fects of altitude on athletes. Wagner, who has been wrestlinir in Klamath for the past three weeks, should . be more accus tomed to the thinner air. Katon en, who has been doing his bit in tne .muggy, low southern cli mate, may be hampered a trifle by the Inability to "catch his wind" in the higher country. Of course, all this reason in 2 hinges on the probable length of the match. If the strangle is short, the altitude may not af fect Paavo s ability, but u the Datue lasts for any length of time, Wagner will have the edge. wagner will probably lead in meanness, also, as is evidenced by Pete Belcastro who is still on the shelf with a back Injury after the pounding he took from George last week. The wrestling-fan public Is vi tally interested in this week's event. Promoter Mack Lillard said today, and a crowded house is forecast for the event by the huge advance ticket sale.
