OREGON PAGE NINE Cubs Pick Ex-Giant, Nats Draft Unknown COLUMBUS, Ohio W Mont Irvin, whose big bat played a key role in the ew York Giants' miracle finish In 1951. Is coming back to the major leagues at the ilpe old age of 37 this time with the Chicago Cubs. The slugging outfielder, aban doned by the Giants last summer, was the only big name among the 10 minor leaguers selected by the majors for a total of $115,000 in (yesterday's annual draft session, which officially opened the winter baseball meetings. Although an unusual number of big league managers were here, cnlv one' trade was consummated The Chicago Cubs sent Hal Jeff- coat, a lair renei pitcner, to tne exchange for Hobie Landrilh, a second-string catcher. The Cubs, In desperate need of a strong right-handed outfielder, nlucked Irvtn from Minneapolis, the Giants' farm club in the Amerl- can Assn.. for the $10,000 draft price, beating out at least two Pitt Gets Glickln NFL Draft MB PHILADELPHIA (UP) The Pittsburgh Steelers, whose tough line begrudges every inch of ground gained, had added help in the secondary today in tne sur prise selection of quarterback Gary Glick of Colorado A & M as their bonus choice in the Na tlonal Football League draft. The Steelers won the "bonus" pick at the league's 21st selection meeting and passed, over sucn oi tensive football players as Howie (Hopalong) cassady of Ohio state and Earl Morrall of Michigan State in favor of Glick, one of the top defensive backs In the na tion. "We drew to our weakness," Coach Walt Kiesllng said as he explained why the Steelers took Glick as a sleeper choice. "He's a do-everything ball player, and while we plan to use him on the defense, we . could send him to quarterback on the offense." The surprise selection of Glick set the pattern of the owners wno all but ignored All America colle gians as they made the first three rounds of the draft at the earlier than usual date to avoid any pos sible legal action with Canadian promoters. ALL-AMERICANS Only four of the 1955 All Ameri ca first team were picked up in the three rounds of selections, total of 37 players drafted. Cassady went on the first round to the Detroit .Lions, and Bob Pel legrini, center from Maryland, went on the first round to the Phila delphia Eagles. Tackle Bruce Bosley of West Virginia went to San Francisco and tackle Norman Masters of Mlphigan State to the Chicago Car dinals, both as second round choices. Pittsburgh explained they passed over Cassady and tapped Art Davis of Mississippi State in the first round in anticipation of the return from service of Johnny Lattner of Notre Dame and Paul Cameron of UCLA. The Steelers were in touch with Glick directly after the bonus choice and said the Aggie back assured them he was Interested in professional football. FOUR YEARS Glick, 25, is a veteran of four years service in the Navy. He in tercepted 13 passes during the past two seasons, returned punts, ran the ball for 641 yards, threw pass es adequately, scored seven touch downs, threw two touchdown pass es, kicked 15 conversions and boot ed a field goal In his only attempt. Only two linemen were selected In the first round. Morrall went to San Francisco. Other first round choices were Joe Childress of Oklahoma to the Car dinals: Lenny Moore of Penn State to Baltimore: Mcnan Schriewer, an end from Texas, to the Bears; Charley Horton, of Vanderbllt, to Los Angeles; Ed Vereb of Mary land to Washington; Preston Car penter of Arkansas to Cleveland, and Jack Losch of Miami (Fla.) to Green Bay. , Los Angeles also got Joe Mar cone of West Virginia from the Giants as a draft choice In a previ ously consummated player trade. The teams will conclude the player draft each has 22 choices left at Los Angeles next January. other clubs Detroit and Cincin nati. If Irvin can come anywhere near the .35J batting average he posted with the Millers, be will provate a real bargain. TOOK TITLE Chicago also took title to pitcher Vlto Valenlinettt from Toronto. Valentinctti had a 9-15 record with Charleston last season. The Cubs were the only club to choose more than one player in the lightest draft since 1945 when the same number of players were selected. The biggest surprise was Wash ington's selection of a practically unknown pitcher, right-hander Con rad Grou. from Montreal, as tne No. 1 pick. Grob. 23. had an 11-9 record at Mobile before being moved to, Montreal. The second choice went to Pitts burgh,, which selected Jack Mc Mahon, a southpaw on the Denver roster who turned In an 11-5 rec ord for Birmingham last season.

PITCHER The St. Louis Cardinals picked pitcher Billy Muffett. who was 10-4 at Shreveport. Muffett came olt the Los Angeles roster. Kansas City took title to BUI Herriage from Oakland.

He was a member of the Mexican team which competed in the International Game Fishing' Tournament off Puerto Rico. Dawson, Cassady Said Tops By OSCAR FRALEt NEW YORK (UP) Thia Is the All-America season and yau can take it from coaches Woody Hayes of Ohio State and Stu HcBcombe of Purdue that their Ho ward Hopalong) Cassady and Leu Daw son both belong front and center on anybody's ball club. Hayes was absolutely eslatlc over his 21-year-old, HM-pound speedball. He dian't stop bjr assert ing emphatically that -young Hou- py can be classed without, lieslta lion right alongside tne immortal Red Grange. He is," Hayes insist O, "the greatest football player I've ever seen." Holcombe backed him up, to a point. - "Cassady Is the best running back I've seen," Stu srdd. ' But my Len Dawson Is the best quar terback I've seen." Nobody thought to ask Hayes to substantiate Holcombe, as the Purdue coach had backed him up Not that either of them needed help. CONVERSATIONAL Hayes, however, musk 1 be con ceded the winner of their conver sational canter before the New York Football Writers gVssn. He took the opening kickofl and no body laid a comma on him. Briefly, bis opinion wan, in addi tion to Cassady's brilliance, that the Ohio State team wan the best in the Big 10 and showid be In the Rose Bowl against U CLA even though Michigan State w 111 get the trip because of the two-year rule. "Cassady is the greatest, Woody said in wat-minn-f up. "He averaged 125 to 150 yard s a game even though he was dtifensed in every game. They Just couldn't Eton him. He's an A n-Arrlerica game buster. We'll have a good team next year, but we'll never replace him. You can, compare this kid to the greatest ever and you're not overestimating him. He's a great blocker. It so, and on defense, well, just don't, throw the ball unless you want Win to inter cept it" NO APOLOGIES Regarding the Big 10, Hayes left no doubt but what for his pesos the Western conference was the best In the land and Ohio State the best in that land. "We make no apologies for our crowds, even though the Big 10 for seven years has left the nation in attendance," he said. ""Not only that, but we'll got be icr because schools like Iowa anil Wisconsin have outgrown their seating ca pacity and will enlarge. But our kids don't come to college Just to play football. They're iiludents and they study and learn." Holcombe was not e vehement, but Just as direct. : "We in the Big 19 respect a lot of other schools, su ch as UCLA, Oklahoma and TCU, Just to name a few," he declared. "But gener ally the 10 teams itti our confer ence can beat you co any. given Saturday." Getting back to Ikawson, Hol combe began to glow. "Cassady is the "best running back," he admitted. " But Dawson undoubtedly Is the best quarter back In, the country. You know, we don't get solt toutdves Saturday after Saturday and, this kid did one of the grandest jobs week in and week out that aaiybody'U ever see. Hayes Just nodded, but happily. COLUMBUS. Ohio (UP) The Milwaukee Braves' attempt to shift their Toledo, Ohio, franchise in the American Assn. to Miami, Fla., threatened the entire struc ture of organized baseball today. For it appeared that a court suit may be necessary to decide whether the Braves have the right ta shift the franchise without the approval o! the Association. As matters now stand, seven of the Association clubs are against ih. Tnlrln.tn-Miami RWltrh TTi u Braves, claiming they lost a quar- ter-oi-a-miuion aonars operating the Toledo franchise the last two seasons, insist they be allowed to go to Miami. . Such a shift would make a league which would stretch from Denver, Colo., in tne west to St. Paul and- Minneapolis in the North and Miami in the South. It would involve so much additional travel ing expense that the other clubs want no part of it. The Braves also realize that such a sjift would not be a profit able one. But they were hoping to get the Columbus Jets of the International League to agree to switch te the Association, with the International' League taking on Miami. Such a change would not affect the International League's traveling picture to any great ex tent, for it nas a team in Havana, Cuba. But the Jets, who were in the Association for years, are happy in the International and do not want to change back. To resolve the deadlock, it was reported the Braves offered to buy the Syracuse, N.Y., franchise in the International and shift it to Miami, paving the way for Toledo to join the Association. But the International League was said to have frowned. Then the Braves issued an ul timatum they either will oper. ate their Association franchise in Miami or not at all. The Association's reply was that If it did not accept the shift. Mil milwaukee either would have to continue in Toledo or give up its franchise and all players signed to Toledo contracts. It was the latter stipulation which got the Braves up in arms. They have several promising players at Tole do they do not want to give up. Commissioner Ford Frlck and Minor League President George Trautman interpreted baseball way and Indicated they would fight the issue, taking it into the courts If necessary. The Association held an emer gency meeting Monday night with out deciding what it should do about the matter. It appeared pos sible that the issue might be put off until after the minor league meetings, which began here today, are concluded on Friday. But there was no sign that either the Association, the International League or the Braves were willing to give an inch. If the situation stays that way. It would take a legal battle to decide it and It could result in the whole structure of the major and minor leagues iinauy coming up for court re view and decision. , 9n dlhistg By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS BASEBALL COLUMBUS, Ohio Tie Bos ton Red Sox purchased the Sau Francisco Seals of the Pacific Coast League for $150,000.

He missed that one be fore he was fitted with a leather brace, which Is laced tightly over his wrist from forearm to fingers and then covered with tape. Thus encumbered, Ronnie still managed to catch Welsh's passes so adeptly that Coach Eddie Erde lati remarked: "Beagle with one hand Is better than most ends with two hands."
