Proper Pitching
'Avoid Tricky Stuff
Says Ex-Yankee Ace
Johnson, Linderman
Leading Kub Batters
Editor's Note This is the first

Proper Pitching" written by Ed

My best advice to a young
pitcher is that he stay away from
trick deliveries like the screwball
and knuckleball. A pitcher should
learn control first.
, The Gun Store's 1R- Wednesday
Bight victory over Moyina Heights
In Babe Ruth Action on Conger
Field, earned the victors -a one-
half game lead over the rest of the
sack in BK play while on the
other diamond Crater Lake Ma
chinery was busy handing M. L.
Johnson their initial defeat of the
season, 25-1 1 in a game which was
played under protest.
The difference in the ball game
was in the 19 bases on balls given
Up by three Moyina hurlers. Both
squads collected only seven base
hits while Gun Store was charged
with 'four errors and Moyina was
charted with two.
John Elliott garnered a pair of
ingles and Mike Malley and Ross
Griggs both rapped doubles for the
winners Jim Nelson poicea
brace of singles for Moyina.
Bases on balls were also the
main factor in the Crater Lake
M. L. Johnson contest, (even In
surance hurlers yielding a total of
23 free passes to the winners.
Of their nine safeties. Ron Sim
son's triple and Bob Burnett's dou
ble were the big blows for the
winner! while Sherm Allen's four
hits and home runs by Rod Spar
lin and Kent Franklin sparked
the loser's eight-hit attack. Allen
smashed out a trio of singles and
added a triple to complete a perfect
night at the plate.

He wants to meet Don Jordan

"He and I could have a real

"We're still chasing Jordan for

He must practice getting
ball over the plate. Starting out,
a boy's best pitch should be his
fast ball. It may be all he has.
but that's enough, especially if
he can put the pitch in the strike
zone.
I learned two things from prac
tical experience. They are rhythm
and coordination. Put these two
things together and you will get
control. Unless you get the two you
may never acquire control. Get
your pitch in the proper groove,
and with stuff on it.
The curve ball should come into
use only after a boy perfects his
last ball. The curve is more dif
ficult to get started, although
some youngsters pick it up eas
ily. A teen-ager must start on
the curve gradually. It takes much
practice to get the proper spin on
the ball for the curve to break
properly.
A youngster often worries about
how to hold the ball and from
which posiliun to throw it lover
hand or three quarters). He should
throw from the position that helps
Hiim feel comfortable. Once he gets
that comfortable leeling he can get
his rhythm. Otf that will come
control. But he must have coor
dination. These things can be de
veloped with constant practice.
One of the musts is that a pitch
er should be relaxed at all times.
Now by that I don't mean he
should slop all over the place.
When a pitcher is relaxed his
muscles react to what his mind
tells them. If tension builds up in
the body a pitcher is not as fluid
as when he's relaxc- Tension
causes wildness.
For example, when a young
ster throws batting practice and
every pitcher should do this when
he's not pitching a game he is
relaxed. He oltcn has good stulf
on the ball. The minute the same
pitcher gets in a little jam in a
ball game he sometimes tightens
up, gets to pressing a bit and
blows sky high.
Confidence is half the battle. A
pitcher should have confidence in
himself regardless of how many
runners are on base. When you
get a chance, look at Whitey Ford
or ( Bob Turley of the Yankees.
Early Wynn of the White Sox or,
in the National League, Warren
Spahn of the Braves. Robin Rob
oils of the Phillies or Bob Friend
of the Pirates. They are relaxed
pitchers. They have that fine
rh,thm and coordination. They
have control.
The big bats of Ron Rube
Johnson and Floyd Linderman, the
top two batters on the Klamath
Kub roster in early season local-semi-pro
baseball, get the acid
test when the Kubs host the league
leading Dunsmuir Merchants in
Gem Stadium Sunday afternoon.
Catcher Johnson and centerfield-
er Linderman. sporting .583 and
571 averages respectively, are
charged with spearheading the Kub
attack as they tangle with the
.Merchants in quest of their first
victory of the season. The Kubs
stand 0-3 thus far.
Sunday the Kub stickers face
the Northern California League's
winningest pitcher. Ronnie Curtis,
who has been credited with both
the Merchant victories so far. Cur
tis, who guided the Dunsmuir nine
to a 4-3 win on the Mount Shasta
grounds last week, spaced six
Shasta hits and pounded a game
winning triple for good measure.
Other league action set for the
weekend finds Yreka at Weed and
the Scott Valley Stars at Mount
Shasta.
Kub statistics released Wednes
day show Johnson, the husky back
stop, a state policeman by trade
at the top of the Klamath hitting
department with seven hits in 12
trips to the plate with 4 RBIs
In the Kub s last outing Johnson
poled two smgles and collected
three RBIs before having to quit
the game midway in order to re
port to work.

Long ball hitters on the Kub
lineup are led by player-coach Irv
Whitt who has appeared in three
games, collected four for nine,
including a homerun and two doub
les, four RBIs and an average of
.444.
Just ahead of Whitt, in percen
tages, is Arve Nelson who has
played in only one game, register
ing one for two and a .500 mark.
Next to Whitt is pitcher Bob
Lawery who holds a .400 in two
games off two hits for five trips.
Firstsacker Dean Dunson has
3 for 11 in three contests and a
mark of .273.
Third baseman-fielder Bill Wor
lein has a .200 off one for five,
while Mike Dolan, Don Dexter,
and Bob Janes have each rapped
a single and shortstop Ron Owings,
a double.
The Kub pitching staff has yet
to break into the win column with
hurlers Lawery, Dolan and Janes
each charged with a loss. The
only other Kub starter, young
John Bianchi, suffered through a
long inning against the American
Legion in a practice game but
was not charged with the defeat.

Trying to pick the winner of the
59th National Open Golf Champi

as trying to hit a gnat with a
peashooter.
There are so many unpredicta
ble factors involved in the 105-man
field that such an able and neutral
observer as Jimmy Demaret said
the 72-hole championship offers
the greatest opportunity for an
amateur victory since Bobby
Jones stumbled m to tie Al
Espinoso 30 years ago, then
drubbed his pro rival in a 36-hole
playoff.
Jones also won the next year
en route to his Grand Slam ol
taking the British and U.S. Open
and amateur lilies. Since then
only one amateur, Johnny Good
man in 1933, has won the Open
crown.
No one, least of all dapper De
maret. really expects an amateur
to win. -
"But I look for an amateur to
be in there with a chance to win
when they start the final round
Saturday." Demaret said. De
maret chose not to compete this
year. ,
'Of course, man against man.
you can t pick anyone to beat
Hogan and Snead," he said. But
Charlie Coe (U.S. amateur cham
