' " i WAYNE SCOTT, Sports Editor SF 'Miracle Man" Understands Fans SAN FRANCISCO (UP!) - One :year has brought about a big change in the affections that pass between the fans of San Francisco ' and the one-and-only Willie Mays, McCloud '9' Plans Slate t McCLOUD The McCloud Log- gers town baseball team will re , gume play this summer after with j drawing.' from the Northern Cali- fornia League last season. Business' manager, Don Kerstcn, '. made a formal application to re ; turn to the Northern California League last Sunday at a meeting ', held in Weed, but the league di ; rectors rejected this bid on the ' grounds that plans had already ,' been formed for an operation of a ; six team league, playing each team twice and have only a one . game playoff for the president's i cup. It was felt that this plan ; should be lollowed and that a re- entry into the league by McCloud , Loggers would only extend the ; playing time and that the high school players would not be avail .'. able before the first of June or ; after the last week of August. Most ' teams in 'the league plan on us ', ng players from their local high ; school. '. Plans are now being formulat ; ed for the McCloud Loggers to operate independently this sum mer. A schedule will bo drawn up ; with several independent teams in ' the surrounding area and it is hoped that a 10 or 12 game sched . ule can be set up with the ball ; season opening in the second week ol June, the Loggers plan on mak Ing a team of local ball players Who are now away in college, some high school players and a -few local players who are intcr '.'estod and have had exoerience 'as the nucleus of their basebalt team. Thore will be a special basehnll 'meeting April 22 at 8 p.m. at the McCloud High School for anyone Interested in playing baseball for the Loggers, anyone who would ; like to help In the organization ;and function of the team for the 1059 season. Sports Scene I BASEBALL At KU ; 1:30 Henley vs. KU Jayvees TRACK At KU ' S:30 Merrill vs. KU Jayvees Last year the West Coast base ball nuts, fed up to the hill with stories about the super-man called the greatest player of the gen. oration." expected Willie to hit a home run every time he came to the plate. : When he went into a slump and failed to hit for a few games, they booed him when he left men stranded on; bases. But I'm sure we'll get alone better. -this year, says Willie. "I know .1';. understand them better and Ihey know that they can't expect , miracles from, mo." RUNNER-UP Mays clouted at a .347 clip last car, was runner-up for the National League batting crown. He smashed 29 home runs and knoU ed in 96 runs. Additionally, he performed near miracles in the outfield. But the fans didn't appreciate this. Willie had started the first lew g..nies at a tremendous clin and was batting around the .400 mark tcr the first month. Then he slumped and levelled off to the .347 average. So they turned around and voted rookie Orlando Cepeda, a fine ball player to be sure, as the team's "most valuable player." Cepeda baited .312, knocked in -96 runs and hit 25 homers. "Expecting miracles" was ex actly the situation in the slands last year when Willie played. They thought he should run up the walls to catch flies that were going for home runs; they ex pected him to knock in a run every time there was a man on base and he came to bat; they thought he should get all. of .those Texas leaguers that fall behind second base; and he should throw nut runners going from second to third or from third to home, .every time. NOT ENOUGH, STEALS They believed that ho should steal second base every time he got on first; and that, he should never be thrown out at the plate. They had been fed so many stories of Willie's prowess that they had built him up, in their own minds, as a sort of super-god. Now they know that Willie Is human. They realize he Is a very fine performer, one of the best in the history of the National League. But. (hat he is subject to a strike out, a fielding or a base-running error just like the rest of the athletes. And will) the "super-god wor shipping over, Willie thinks that there will be less pressure on him and he'll have another fine season.

United Press International Please, somebody, open up that starting gate so poor Pittsburgh and Detroit can get out. Here the season is only a week old and the Pirates and Tigers al ready have hit rock bottom with identical 0-5 records- If they don't get a move on soon, you can put big black asterisk in front of both entries denoting "left at the post. Pittsburgh and Detroit can con sole themselves by recalling the 19S1 Giants lost 11 in a row dur ing April and still came on to win the pennant. That isn t much consolation, though. Not when the Pirates re member they dropped their first eight games of the season in 1955 and finished last or when the Ti gers think back to how they also wound up in the basement after losing their first eight games in 1952. Cincinnati handed the Pirates their fifth, straight loss. 10-5, Wednesday while unbeaten Cleve-1 land stayed atop of the American League standings by dealing the Tigers their fifth consecutive set back, 2-1, in 10 innings. The Yankees remained close at Cleveland's heels by beating Bal timore, 3-1, for their third straight triumph; the Athletics handed the White Sox their first loss of the campaign, 10-8, and the Red Sox beat the Senators, 7-3, In the National League, the Dodgers licked the Cardinals, 5-0, and the Giants made it four out of five by defeating the Cubs, 7-1 The first-place Braves were idle as were the Phillies. Indians 2, Tigers 1 Woodie Hold's third homer two days powered the Indians to their fourth straight victory in their 10-inning struggle with De troit.
