Coach Hates To See ikan's Cage Ret urn ny OSCAR VRALKY Unilod t'ress Sports Writer NEW YORK (UP) Coach John Kundla of the Minneapolis Lakers hated to see George Mikau quit pro basketbn.ll out lied also hale lo nee hurt try a comeback. The man known as "Mr. Basket ball" before he stepped down prior to last season has been talking of divinfr it another try. As general mananer of ihe Lakers he has twin; reasons: Poor seasons on the court and r. the gate. Coast League Openers Set For California SAN FRANCISCO '(iP Pacific Coast League baseball clubs of Seattle, Portland and Vancouver will piny the first two weeks of the 1059 season in California un der a new schedule adopted Mon day by the league directors. The season will open on April 10. Previously the Northern mem bers had played three week-long series in the South before going home. New PCL president Leslie O'Con nor handled the gavel as the di rectors met in a spirit of h eh purchase of the San P'rancisco optimism. O'Connor cited recent purchnse of Ihe Hun 1 Francisco Seals by the Boston Red Sox, a new and progressive" ownership in San Diego, a bigger stadium in Portland, and entry of Vancouver, B.C., into the circuit, replacing Oakland. Lenuue headquarters will re main in Sun Francesco. The spirit of the meeting was ex pressed by Brick Laws, Vancouver president: "We've got It made. The entry of the Boston Red Snx Into Hun Francisco tins solved our diffi- cultii San Francisco Is ihe core league, the hub of pros- of the polity.

'' it nil V 1 But the out.spokcn Kundla feels that, even in one season the- switt moving pro game has passed Mikan by, "I doubt if he's serious, any how." Kundla insisted. "01 course he has thought about it. but his comeback would be strictly lor the gate. If he is really interested, he would work out with us. Sure, hr has been conducting clinics and feels in fairly good shape. He might een help us in spots. QIICKKNKD ' He simply has cone back too far." Kundla added, "or maybe ou can say the game has gone ahead too far." One of the reasons that Mikan retired was thai hf-hd Lad knees. In this connection, the pro game undoubtedly 1ms "gone ahead too far." Mikan was one of the greatest scorers in pro basketball history. Leading the Lakers to six pro titles in seven years, he rolled a record 11.376 points throuuh the hoop; set the one-season mark of 1.932 points and the high average of 28.4 points per game. But that was before the 24-sec-ond rule was written into the books last year. Under current rules, the offen sive teiini has 21 seconds to take a shot. It keeps the pressure on and the tempo of the game at a lever pitch. It's no game for a man with bncl lops or a man who has reached :)l and has lost his "edge" through a year's inactivity. (;i:t iickt "I'd hate lo see him try it." Kundla said, "because L'd hate to see him get hurt.' It's possible that lie miqht. too. either physically or in his reputa tion. Because It is absolutely 't mazing the strides which basket ball - au;i basketball players have made in tht la.it few years. W'ncn Mikan broke into the pro !iame .just eight vears auo he was ret erred to us ' excessively tall." At 6-frct. 10-inches, George is no tniiiuei. But today thai approahces medium size m the lightning Uai pro basketball circuit A Minnesota lawyer, Mikan is planning to run for Congress. Bui as vice president and ceneral man ager of the Litkei.s he altmrir all hmnr games and, according to Kundla, "goes cra.v on h e bench. '' Geoi ge admits tint he works up more of a sweat now than when he was playing. "1 dreaded th" day hen he'd retire and I dread the thought that he mish' come back." Kundla 'rowns, iiirn anrting with a sudden smile: "Besides, as general inann ger, he'd have me over a barrel." ft f ""! i'V '4 4 (llv.9r;i befric Shavers Arc Ideal Christmai Gifts!

Lady J See All The New THE M 54 Moi mm Return Out For Padre GM SAN FRANCISCO (UP) Ralph Kmer, one of the major league's all-time great home run hitters, said today there was absolutely no cnance of Qjlng a cometOek in Only 33 ycoi'fe old, 0hier said that Oi was perfectly satisfied in his new job as general manager of the San Diao FOdres of the Pa cific Coast League. "Besides, I can't afford to tet back into a playing uniform," Kiner Jested. "I have bets with Freddie Hutchinson, manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, and a flock of others. They think that I'll b out there belting the ball by July. "If I had wanted to continue playing baseball, I would have stayed in the majors, whors I could make much more money than I'm making here. Hut I'm ready to settle down to a life in the front office. So far, It has provwt very interesting." Kmer said he had "high hopes" that the new owners of the Padres would build a new park by the 1956 season. "I'm certainly enjoying working on the 'other side of the baseball fence." he added, "However, I was on the players' negotiation committee in the majors and this type of work Isn't too much dif ferent." Kiner, who set home run records with the Pittsburgh Pirates and later played with the Chicago Cubs and Cleveland Indians, hasn't fixed up any kind of a working agree ment with a major league team yet. "I certainly would like to hook up an agreement with Cleveland," he said. But the Indians have Indianapolis and have to give their top material there, first. It seems that most or tne omer major league clubs have working agreements with teams in the PCL already, so wc may nave a tougn time." Hank Greenberg, general mana ger of Cleveland, is a close friend j of Kiner's and it is thought that the Indians will come through with j some help for the Padres if it is i needed. In the meantime, Kiner Isn't too i worried. Can't get much help until the majors cut down anyway, he points out. Is he in shape? I weigh 195 pounds same as I've weighed for the last five years while playing in the ma jors," he says.

Taium has been mentioned as successor to Trimble, and another report had the Maryland head coach going to North Carolina to replace Cieorge Barclay. Stu Holcomb, who left his Job lour days ago as Purdue Univer sity head cjach to become athletic director at Northwestern, fired Sa ban, 34, on the first day in his new Job yesterday. Also released were Una coaches Sud Svendsen and Nathan John son, end coach George Sleinbren ner and backfield coach Al Pesek. T feel that It is In the best in terests of' the athletic department that we make a change in our foot ball coaching staff and that the new coach be free to name his own staff," Hdlcomb said. Northwestern, for the first time in history, failed to win a football ifame this season, but tied Illinois 7-7 in the final game. Among those mentioned as suc cessors to Saban were coaches Dal Ward of the University of Colora do and Ala Parscghian of Miami (Ohio) University. Mollenkopf, 50, was a star end at Bowling Green (Ohio), and came to Purdue in 1947 with Hol comb. Trimble, 37, said he was "stunned" at the action of the Phil adelphia front office, altnough he had read recent, reports that he would be fired. "I can say with all honesty that I have worked harder in this past football season that at any other time in my coaching caitei," he said. The Eagles won four games, lost seven and had one tie in the Na tional Football League this year.
