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.
The Injury Jinx that has been
haunting the major league clubs
all through training struck the In
dians when second-string catcher
Mickev Orasso broke his left ankle
sliding into a base. He will 'be out
about tnree months. Ho is Jim
Hcgan's No. 1 understudy.
Meanwhile, the Baltimore Ori
oles, the Cactus League leaders,
won their 11th game against five
defeats by turning back the New
York Olanls 4-3 at Phoenix. They
Jumped on Sal Maglie for three
runs In the sixth after he had rur
up a scoreless skein of 13 innings.
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.

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).

Coach Not
Notified
Officially
Paul McCall said today all he
knew about Bradlev University
eyeing him for the head basektball
coaching job was what he "read
In the newspapers."
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. '
Over the past four years Del
Rice of the Cardinals has appeared
in more National League games
than any other catcher.

Thus Maurice Podoloff. president

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
