The man known as "Mr. Basket

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

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

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."

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.

Jim Tatui saii that reports that
fo would lciv College Park were
?tlir4r to b a "damned joke."
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

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

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

films of these games from the
Spartans and gave MSC pictures
of their games against Stanford
and Southern California.
Sanders made a major defensive
change, Johnny Smith, an end, is
going to be used as a linebacker
because, Sanders says, "we'll need
additional strength in that depart
ment, and Smith, a very intelli
gent man, will give it to us."
The Bruins are in top physical
condition, and the six piayers who
were hobbled late in the season
are completely recovered.
