Sporta Writer, The Vancouver
Province
VANCOUVER, B.C. Wl There's
another new broom In the lront
office of the Western Internation
al League's baseball Capllanos,
and In the best traditions ol new
brooms, it has swept quite clean.
When last year's general man
ager, Dewey Soriano was called to
groater wings ne's uie new o.M.
of Seattle's Coast League entry
an old Vancouver favorite, BUI
Brenner, waa whistled up to take
bis place,
Brenner, who had managed the
Caps from 1048 through 1950, had
been hibernating at Lewiston for
two seasons as manager, after a
year as field boss at Yakima. He
was happy to return to the Caps
in triplicate, more' or less. Be
sides his job as gcnoral manager,
Brenner will also serve as Held
boss and figures, on his 22 vic
tories last year, to be the ace of
his own pitching staff, too.
At this stage, Brenner's squad,
with a lot of now faces, looks
more formidable than the 1933
team, which got by on pitching
and the hitting almost exclusively
of Manager Harvey Storey, who
has since moved on to Salem as
mftnnger.
Brenner's pitching: should be as
good as last year's. Besidea hlin
sell, he's added Oeorge Nicholas,
an excellent righthander making
a comeback; Bill rrnnks, another
righthander rrom Spokane; and
Lctty Tom Del Sarlo, last year
with Yakima. They should replace
Lonnle Myers and Van Fletcher,
currently with Seattle. Pete Her
nandes Is there, loo. but will like
ly rclum to the Caps.
The Caps are stronger In calch
Inr, with big Nick Pesut backed
up by Bob Dureito; the infield
Bhould hnvo much more punch,
with newcomora Ellia Daugherty,
via Colorado Springs at first, ex
Coast LeaRuer Marv Williams at
second, veteran Ken Richardson
at third, and returnee shortstop
Jim Clark.
K. Chorlton Is back in center
Held, and he ll be flanked by Bob
Wellman In left, maybe he's still
with Seattle; and either Dannv
Holden or Arnie Hnllgren, bolh
Vancouver boys. In right lirld.
Consensus: Pitching, excellent:
hitting, much Improved; fielding
adequate. .

Portland Surprise
Of Coast League
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
The surprise of the Pacific
Coast League at this early stage
is Clay Hopper's Portland ball
club.
The Ports are In first place with
eight wins and two defeats. They
have been getting consistent pitch
ing and the team is sound, de
fensively. Olenn Elliott, the veteran south
paw, won his second game Thurs
day night aa Portland edged San
Diego, 2-1, and Friday night Hop
per is sending Bin Boemler, for
mer San Francisco speedballer,
against the hustling team of Lefty
O'Doul.
Elliott whiffed lo Padres as he
scattered six hits and earned the
decision over Bob Kerrigan. Walt
juomch's double off the right field
fence in the fourth scored the first
Tun for Portland. The clincher
came in the seventh as Jim
Oladd's grounder took a had
bounce over short for a hit and he
moved to second on an Infield out
and scored on Frankie Austin's
single.
Sacramento made It three
straight over Seattle as Chesty
Chet Johnson scattered seven lilts
and notched his first victory, 4-1.
Tommy Byrne, the ex-American
Leaguer, was the loser In this
duel of somhpaws. The decisive
blow was a two-run double by sec
ond baseman Hank Schenz in the
fifth inning.
Seattle presented a oatched-un
lineup as Manager Jerry Prlddy
was absent from first base be
cause at a sore back, second base
man Artie Wilson was out with
a spike wound and shortstop Mer
rill Combs was absent because of
the death of his mother in Los
Angeles.
Cellar-dwelling Hollywood served
as a door mat again lor Oakland,
13-3.
Six Hollywood pitchers saw dulv
and gave up 16 hits. Bob Hall, who
started, was no puzzle at all, but
neither were his successor. There
were 17 bases on balls and the
game took three hours, 15 minutes
to complete.
Leity Joe llatlcn o tched Los
Angeles to a 3-2 decision over San
Francisco. It was his third straight
win, . . .

lor one good win over Tugged

The fighting father of four cut it
when ,he was matched with the
husky, hard-punching 21-year-old
from Detroit. Ward made a big
splash while losing on an eighth

show while it. lasted.
Ward always makes an Inter.
esting fight wlHi his aggressive,

good while doing so. That could
put him in line for plenty of future
engagements to help feed his

Ward, however, has some am.
bltlous ideas of his own. After be
ing stopped by Troy, then the
fourth - ranking middleweight, he
lost a split decision to Holly Mlms,
another contender, at Detroit
March 3. Moses wants to regain
the winning habit. He had won nine
in a row until he met Troy.
The bout Is rated a pick "em

Problem
By GAYLE TALBOT
NEW YORK HI All we've been
able, to gather from a thorough
reading of the racing papers the
past few days Is the conclusion
that they're finally going to he
forced to run the Kentucky Derby
in at least two sections. Otherwiso
the 3-year-old classic will look like
a May Day parade.
Since both Turn-to and Porter
house were declared out, nobody
seems to be scared of anything
that's left, including Correlation,
the current favorite by default. The
fact that Eddie Arcaro, the only
five-time winner of the event, has
given bis royal consent to ride
Ooyamo Isn't expected to tighten
anyone out either.
A typical day's report on work
outs shows 48 eligible colts still
getting in their practice licks at'
various tracks, not counting those
entered in races on the given after
noon, A trainer Is quoted as saving,
"Everybody has a chance now. It
should be fun."
Something's got to give within
the next three weeks unless Col.
BUI Corum, the head of Churchill
Downs, is to be laced with a
weighty problem.
One of the more dramatic turns
of the spring has been the success
ful comeback of Hal Newhouser to
win a contract with the Cleveland
Indians estimated to be worth $15,
000. Still short of his 33rd birthday
and an even 200-game winner dur
ing his career with Detroit, the
lett-hander was cut loss last July,
apparently washed up with an in
curably sore arm.
Two months ago he accepted an
Invitation from his old friend and
teammate Hank Greenberg to work
out with the Indians at their Tucson
training camp. It was considered
a nice gesture on Hank's part. He
probably was the most surprised
man in Arizona when the eccentric
lefty began to look like his old self
in exhibition games. Finally, last
week. Hank called the former boy
phenom in to talk contract.
So what happened? Hal, accord
ing to the grapevine, didn't think
too much of Hank's offer. It seems
that other clubs had heard about
his new lease on life too and had
been talking money to him. as thev
had a perfect right to do under
baseball law. Newhouser brokj ud
the first conference by saying he
would have to talk It over with his
wife.
There was no transcript of the
conversation, but the outcome was
that Hal eventually returned and
accepted Hank's terms. He had.
however, upheld his long-time rep
utation as a tough bargainer.
Hank, they say, looked like a man
who had barely escaped having his
hand chewed off by a family pet.
