baseball.
' For this Job we call in one
McKlnney, from Ml. Shasta. J. 0.,
skier ... he doesn t mind the snow and he s happy for the skiers
on Kit. Shasta but he still would just as soon talk baseball.
The following is a report from
McKinney. who visited one of the
real oldtimcrs of the diamond,
lvon Howard, recently:
By J. O. McKINNEY
Guest Columnist
"So you want me to tell you ol
my baseball career? That's quite
story!"
This was lvon C. Howard talk
lng. He was sitting in the living
room of his splendid country estate
in the Siskiyou foothills. Norman
Swan, a college baseball pitcher
with a hop on his fast ball, and 1
had gone there to talk to the vet
eran player. My desire was to gel
elnfu Nnrman uantprl In sit at
the feet of the player whose wise
guidance has sent so many rookies
to the big leagues, lvon was asked
to tell the whole story.
' "That's impossible." he stated
firmly. "During my tenure in base
ball, I went from the scrubbiest
bushes to tne big league, i imeu
about every position from mascot
to manager. Never won too many
medals, but I got by. And they
tell me I was a real good mascot."
The veteran's eyes, bright as
when he was looking over the
pitching of the best in the busi
ness, twinkled as he recalled his
mascot assignment. It was with the
Mattoon, Illinois, Independents. The
team was made up of deaf mutes,
save two players who were nor
mal. One was George E. "Del"
Howard, brother of the mascot, and
one other whose name is now for
gotten. Dummy Taylor, later a
iine big league pitcher, was the
mainstay on thev mound for the
Mattoon club.
An incident recalled by lvon was
when two young ladies passed the
team sitting on the bench, and one
said: "Isn't it a shame that such
fine looking young men are deaf-and-dumb?"
"Del" Howard, a most articulate
man, replied: "Isn't it?"
Another assignment on me way
up was playing , with Goodland,
Indiana, in what was known as
the Wagon League. It was a loose
ly organized circuit. The players
went from town to town via horse
drawn conveyances. lvon, being
farm raised, was driver. That was
in 1904.
The teamster must have shown
ether abilities. In 1905 he played
with Omaha in the Western League.
Next step was to the Coast League
with Los Angeles, Angels. In 1908,
Howard took the base running
honors, and the team took the
league pennant. lvon believes that
with the recent passing of another
of that old guard. Deacon Van Bu
ren, that he is now the sole sur
vivor.
The climber went to the big
leagues with the St. Louis
Browns. This was in spite of a
shoulder injury that cut down his
throwing ability. His timely hit
ting, and speed on the bases were
too good to be kept down.
While a member of the Browns
lvon recalls that he narrowly
missed a chance at a World Series
en honor that eluded him. He was
sold to Philadelphia Athletics in
1914, but recalled after tickets to
the Quaker City were secured
The Athletics won the pennant,
only to be badly outclassed by the
Boston Braves, of the National
League, in the fall classic.
"I've always felt," said lvon
"that I might have hit a few off
Rudolph, Tyler, and James, but
I'll never know."
. In 1915, Howard was traded to
the Cleveland Indians, also in the
American League. There he stole
29 bases while playing in 103
. games. Ray Chapman, playing in
the entire 154 scheduled games,
stole but 37 to lead the league.

Flu Bug Hits East,
ii r
van Drocium uuwn
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Norm
Van Brocklin, who was to quar
terback the East in Sunday's pro
bowl game, is down with the flu.
His physician Saturday pro
nounced him a doubtful starter.
. Bobby Layne of the Pittsburgh
Steelers was named to replace the
old pro from the Philadelphia Ea
gles if he can't make the game.
Also hit by the flu was another
East starter offensive guard Jim
Ray Smith. It's doubtful he'll
play, either.
Ernie Stautner, normally a de
frnsive regular with the Steelers,
was named to replace Smith.

League. Here his team was always
in contention, won the pennant
once during hs eight years there
and he set new records for de
veloping young players. The sale
of Lynn Larry and Jimmy Reese
to the New York Yankees, while
not a top sale, stands high when
$135,000 was paid for the young
sters.
Monte Pearson, Pete Daglia,
Howard Craighead, Ernie Lombar
ds Jimmy Caveney and Buzz Arlett
are but a few that were sent up
the ladder. Seven players from the
1927 team went to the big leagues.
Howard states that his greatest
thrill in a ball game came while
with the St. Louis Browns. He bat
ted in the only run of a game
with the Washington Senators, with
Walter Johnson pitching. It en
abled George Sislcr, pitcher-first
baseman, to b e c o m e a winner
against the "Big Train," an ambi
tion he always cherished, but
achieved but once.
The worst play he ever made:
he stales, was while with Cleve
land. Cleveland was leading In the
last of the ninth, 1-0 over the home
team, Detroit. Two were out, Stan
ley Coveleski pitching great ball
for the Indians. An easy one-hop
ground ball to lvon at third base
was a natural out. But by some
quirk, the throw to first base went
into the stands. Two runs scored
and Cleveland lost.
He considers Walter Johnson,
Earl Hamilton, Eddie Flank and
Dutch Leonard the best pitchers he
ever faced, but said on certain
days they were all tough.
Today he enjoys living the life
of Riley, while watching mountain
quail come into his yard daily;
and deer feed in his meadow, His
only daughter lives nearby. Her
two children visit their grandpar
ents; the grandson appears
headed for the big leagues, coached
by the old veteran.
But best of all, he married his
boyhood sweetheart, and they cele

EOC hit only 21 field goals and
a miserly 23 for 43 from the char

Branson hooked, tipped and
drove for seven field goals and
hit a blistering 8-9 from the foul

Layher on the boards.
Friday night the Owls' two pla
toon system began to pay off af
ter the first ten minutes of play.
During the opening stages of the
first half the Owls and the Mounts
battled on almost even terms. Af
ter alternating leads for six min
utes, Palmberg replaced his "run
and shoot" five with a complete
new crew composed of Branson,
Guill, Ramseyer, Horton and
Johnson who took over as the
board showed 14-12 for EOC. The
slowdown" squad ran the count
to 24-20 with 8:40 left in the half
and the first five came back.
From here on the Techmen
pulled away to an easy 39-25 lead
by the end of the half.
The first platoon, Oliva, Zitek,
Layher, McKee and Koontz, opened
the second period but the dis
tance narrowed to 42-33 with four
minutes. Again the squads were
switched but the Mounts seemed
to get stronger.
Arritola, Chase and D a r r e 1 1
Jones collaborated on a barrage
of two-pointers to close the gap
while the Owls seemed to run out
of gas. r i
In the closing five minutes of
the game the Tech lead was never
more than four points.- With 59
seconds remaining in the game
and the score 64-61, an Owl weave
blew up when McKee cast off from
near the corner and missed. The
ball was rebounded by the Mounts
and there were eight changes in
the lead, most of them in the first
half, which ended with Oregon- in
front, 28-26.

Cincinnati,
Mighty 'O'
PEORIA, 111. (AP) - Bradley's
Braves rallied in the second half
to edge previously undefeated
Cincinnati 91-90 Saturday night
despite Oscar Robertson's record-
breaking 46 points.
Cincinnati, the nation's No. 1
team, led 47-44 at halftime before
Alpha Saunders, Bobby Joe Mason
and Chet Walker turned the tide
for the Braves in the second half.
Late in the game Cincinnati led
87 when Walker drove in for a
layup to score and make it 89-
for Bradley with 38 seconds left
Robertson, who set a Robertson
Fieldhouse record, had the ball
and was pivoting for a shot when
he stepped out of bounds.
Bradley took over and with
seconds left Carl Bouldin fouled
Mike Owens who dropped in
a pair of free throws to clinch the
victory. -Bradley
thus avenged its only
defeat this season, an 86-71 loss
at Cincinnati. Bradley, ranked
fourth nationally, has a 12-1 rec
ord and Cincinnati is 13-1.
Bradley's trio of Walker, Saund

Robertson's scoring spree. Walker
scored 28 points, Saunders 22 and
Mason 21.
