ASHLEY CHEVROLET 410 So. 6th Hal Newhouser Tries Bv LD CORRIGAN AP Sports Writer i The date was July 22, 1953 less than a year ago and Hal Newhouser who once had drawn S65.000 for pitching for the Detroit Tigers, was talking: "This Is the end. I'm finished as an active player. My arm Just can't 3tand tile strain any more." The handsome flreballer had Just been told that at the age of 32, lie was all through. He couldn't even hold a Job with the last-place Tigers. After almost 15 years with them, he had his unconditional re lease and memories. . But he couldn't stay out of the game, and today ne s Dack trying to win a spot with the Cleveland Indians. He's on trial, of course, but what Manager Al Lopez has seen has been encouraging. CREDIT Newhouser got credit for his first victory of the spring training season yesterday when the Indians battered the Chicago Cubs 12-3. Despite the heavy bombing, the slim left-hander bore down ail the way through his three-inning stint and didn't allow the Cubs a. run.

TROUBLE The Detroit Tigers and the Phlla. delphia Phillies, who have been having the same trouble no hit ting came to different latej. The Tigers broke a five-game los ing streak with a 6-4 victory over the Milwaukee Braves achieved on a two-out single in the bottom of the ninth by rookie Hairy Bright. Tile Phillies, who have scored just six runs in their last five games, dropped a yi decision to the Washington Senators. Johnnv Schmitz and Chuck Stobbs com bined to harass the Phillies. The Pittsburgh Pirates, who Gavilan Has New Daughter CHICAGO 11 Kid Oavllnn, confident welterweight champion and new father, was to arrive in Chicago Thursday for Intense on- the-scene training for his April 2 shot nt Carl (Bobo) Olson's mid dleweight crown. Alter formally signing for the Chicago Stadium bout a week ago, Gavilan returned to his Summit. N.J, camp. Wednesday he received the good news: His wife gave birth to a 7 pound, 8 ounce daughter In Havana. "We name her Victoria In honor of my victory over Olson." said the Cuban Kid, who also has another daughter and a son. Gavilan, still conlidrnt of de feating Olson, possibly by a knock out, and sneering at the current 9-5 odds nsuinst him, will train at the Midwest Gym, where he sharpened up for his slaughters of Chuck Davey and Johnny Brattoi).

The Associated Press said yes terday that Bradley of Peoria, III.. McCall's alma mater where he starred in basketball, listed the Klamath Union High School cage bo&s among the candidates for the job left vacant when Forrest An derson accepted the job at Michi gan State. McCall, who Currently is being mentioned strongly for the top job in football at KUHS, said imivei1 sity officials have not been in touch with him directly. He did say that friends in Peoria, III., telephoned him Wed nesday to ask him If he were in terested. He told the Herald and News last night he "couldn't afford" to pass up the Job if it should be offered him. , A standout player at Bradley from 1839 to 1942, McCall took the Pelicans to the Oregon high school basketball finals three years ago. Four others were mentioned as possible successors to Anderson. They are Ray Meyer of DePaul, PAUL McCALL Johnny Dee of Alabama and George Ireland of Loyola Chicago. former Notre Dame stars, and Ralph Stanley of Belolt. Speculators today predicted the Klamath school board would slow down lis naming of a football coach, a position created by the recent resignation of Bob Hender- shott, until more definite word reaches McCall from Peoria. McCall, bidding for the Pelican grid job with Dutch Simons as his assistant, unofficially at least seems to have the strongest back ing for the position, for which applications are still coming In. McCall's status regarding the Bradley Job, however, is expected to clear up considerably by Mon day, when the school board hands the advisory committee a shaved down list of "finalists" for the high school's football Job.

Norkus Thrashes Nardico By BEN FUNK MIAMI BEACH, Fla. tflDanny Nardico, the Tampa brawler who depends on raw courage to over come his lack of boxing ability, retreated back to the light heavy weight ranks today after taking a second savage beating from Char ley Norkus of. Jersey City, Norkus, the unranked 24-year-old heavyweight, had a 17-pound ad vantage as he hammered out a unanimous 10-round decision last night in the Miami Beach Auditor ium. He weighed 101 Vt to Nardlco's 180'4. REMATCH They weie rematched for a na tional television audience as a re sult of their bloody eight-knockdown battle in the same ring Jan. 20. Norkus flattened Nardico six times and hit the deck twice him self before the fight was stopped. Neither man went down for a count last night, but it was the same kind of brawl they had staged before, and It was enough to convince a brutally beaten Nardico he doesn't belong in the heavyweight ranks. "He's Just too tough," Danny declared through puffed lips in his dressing room. "I had to give too much weight." . BLOOD Nardico, always on the attack, got through Norkus' fumbling de fense with dozens of smashing lefts and rights. By the eighth round, .his white trunks were red with blood flowing from Norkus' nose. But for every blow he landed, he took two and In the ninth and 10th, as Norkus chopped home one vicious punch after another, the crowd wondered why the wobbling Nardico didn't fall.

Bob Cole of Tulare, Calif., fired a 628 Molinas" Return Dimmed NEW YORK W1 'iHe broke faith with .us." Thus Maurice Podoloff. president of the National Basketball Assn., all but squashed any chance Jack Molinas, suspended Fort Wayne star, had of being reinstated to his club. The Pistons dropped Molinas whan It was found that he had placed bets on the team to win. Yesterday, a Bronx County grand Jury reported that no evidence of any crime had been found. Molinas overjoyed, Immediately said he would like to get back Into action. "We are not concerned with whether Mollnas committed a crime," Podoloff snapped. "To us, his betting means that he broke faith with us. It was a flagrant violation of a written contract." He added that he could not per sonally outlaw Mollnas because such authority rests with the Board of Governors of the NBA. How ever, he indicated he doubted if Mollnas would be permitted to play again. Podoloff said the league was out to maintain Its record of avoiding scandal and anything that would reflect unfavorably on It. "T was silly," said Mollnas. "I'll never bet again." He said he never bet against the Pistons.
