GRAY SUMMIT, Mo. (UP)
Manager Charlie Grimm of the
Milwaukee Braves said today he
would give his banjo-plunkin' left
arm for some good left-handed
pitching.
The National League's senior
manager said his second-place
Braves were set for the 1956 pen
nant battle with the exception of
lefties in the bullpen and a pos
sible replacement at second base.
Grimm expects a "helluva" battle
from Toledo's Frank Torre for the

Sucker Shift
Discussed By
NCAA Group
LOS ANGELES W The "sucker
shift" was under scrutiny today
by a hand-picked group of the na
tion's collegiate football coaches.
The group, the Rules Committee
of the American Football Coaches
Assn., was in session as athletic
administrators from across the na
tion gathered for the 50th annual
convention of the National Col
legiate Athletic Assn.
Although the coaches' rules com
mittee Is solely an advisory group,
the NCAA rules panel which meets
late next week, will listen to Its
recommendations.
Ray Eliot of Illinois, AFCA
president and a member of the
NCAA Rules Committee, said be
fore today's meeting he anticipated
no major changes in the rules
would be- recommended. But, he
Bald, the "sucker shift" which is
dignified in the rule book as "false
start." certainly would be dis
cussed. The "sucker shift" is a move
ment by an offensive team from
one formation into another. It's
legal, but has been used sometimes
in the past solely as a gimmick
to draw the defensive team offside
and earn a five-yard penalty.
If you watched television of the
East-West Shrine game at San
Francisco last Saturday, you saw
what one of the East coaches said
later was a perfect example. The
West shifted from the split T into
the single wing,, an absolutely
legitimate move utilized frequently
by such multiple offense teams as
Michigan State and Southern Cali
fornia. But, according to the East
coach, there was much shouting
by the West players which confused
the Easterners. They Jumped the
pass from center and an offside
penalty was assessed.

fable Grimm said. "If we stay
intact and Gene Conley comes
through, we've got as good a
chance as Brooklyn or anybody
else."
Conley, the big right-hander who
suffered an injured back after
compiling an 11-7 record, is the
club's big IF. He went out when
the Braves were only about 10
games behind the championship
bound Dodgers, against whom his
record showed consistent -mastery.
GOOD BALANCE
"The picture of 1955 to me was
good balance In this league, except
for Brooklyn," Jolly Cholly said
"and I don't think they'll get off
as good, which means even bet
ter balance this season.
"They took it all because they
were terrific. . . but this Is 1956."
Grimm, basking In the glow of
the fireplace at his hilltop farm
home, foresaw a lack of left
handers as a weakness on the
Braves, but for a team with a
dearth of southpaw hurlers, Mil
waukee has one of the best in
17-game winner Warren Spahn.
"Spahn, Lew Burdette, Bob Buhl
and Ray Crone proved last year
they can carry the load," he said.
"The bullpen hinges about this
fellow (John) Red Murff, Chet
Nichols and Conley and, maybe,
(Lou) Sleater."
Sleater and Nichols are the
only left-handers on the list. Slea
ter was Just drafted in the search
for some southpaw feller.
"Our ball club will be very much
the same, unless some hot, young
fellows can eat someone out,"
Grimm said. "As a result, we'll
spend more time in spring train
ing giving the kids a chance to
make the team.
Those with the brightest pros
pects, he said, are Bob Trow
bridge, Paul Cave and Humberto
Robmson, all right-handed pitch
ers. With Del Crandal and Dell Rice
on the catching staff, the Braves
need only a third stringer, "pre
ferably a left-handed hitter,"
Grimm said.

"And Hank hasn't even matured
vet," Grimm said of the 21-year-old
outfielder. "He will be a
helluva player."
Johnny Logan seems to be a
fixture at shortstop. Grimm indi

the Braves had lost Logan the way
