UPI Telephoto OFF-SEASON PROBLEMS . . Wanted By Chisox: One Hard -Hitting Catcher CHICAGO (UPI i If there's a sadder lament than that about the one that got away, check willi the Chicago White Sox. They're looking for two who got away. Either one John Romano of tlie Cleveland Indians or Earl Battey of the Minnesota Twins would be just what the doctor ordered in Chicago's search (or a good right-handed hitting catcher. General Manager Ed Short said he is getting nowhere try ing to find one. "This is our No. 1 require ment. The only American League catchers who would fill the bill are Elston Howard, Bat tey or Romano. And tliere's no chance of getting them," Short said Monday. The White Sox never had any claim to Howard, but Battey and Romano both served as sub stitutes behind Sberm Lollar. Acquire Roy Sievcrs Battey's most active year with the White Sox was in 1958 w hen he appeared in 68 games. Romano was in 53 games with the While Sox in 1959, before he went to Cleveland in a deal that brought Minnie Minoso to Chi cago. For Battey, another player and $150,000 the White Sox got Roy Sievcrs from the Washing ton Senators. Short said his club is also looking over National League catchers but he named none he Mantle Hit With Suit DALLAS I UPI i - Mickey Mantle. New York Yankees slugger, was charged today with foul dealings with his en dorsements and other off-season, money-making activities. A $200,000 damage suit was filed Monday in behalf of tlie bankrupt Mickey Mantle Enter prises, Inc., a corporation that originally was to handle all of Mantle's business except hit ting home runs. The silk charges that the slugger sold his interest in the corporation, then started selling his endorsements of products, personal appearances and other non-baseball activities on his own.

Barring a sudden turn for the better, the White Sox may have to settle for a powerful right handed batter in any position, preferably in the outfield. Rocky Colavito and Orlando Cepeda were both prospects in this regard, Short said, and of the two, he was "more interest ed in Cepeda." Loss Skein Brings Look WINSTON SALEM, N.C. (UPI) A study of the Wake Forest College athletic pro gram, "with special emphasis on football" is underway at tlie Baptist-supported institution which currently has the na tion's longest string of consecu tive football losses. Wake Forest President Har old Trtbble said Monday tlie study was started in response to "questions from various parts of the state." He said tlie study would be made of the en tire athletic program. Tlie Demon Deacons under Coach Billy Hildebrand have lost 17 consecutive games the nation's longest continuing string of defeats and have not scored since the first game of tlie season when tlicy got 10 points against East Carolina. Hildebrand, whose contract with Wake Forest has two more years to run. has won only 6 while losing 31 games since he took over the job here four years ago. There has been speculation that Hildebrand would be re placed but the coach answered all rumors by saying he was sure Wake Forest would honor his contract. Tribble said the study was being conducted by presidents of organizations having to do with athletics at the school. EXCLUSIVELY AT J.

PAGE 9 "An Encouraging Season" Short reviewed what he called "an encouraging but not satis factory season" for the second place White Sox. "We were close enough this season to be cautious in our deals for '64." he said. "We're anxious for more power, but we won't weaken our club to get it." Tlie White Sox may again have to depend on Dave Nichol son for their right-hand power, but Short said this was not as bad as it might sound. "I know that he set an all time strikeout record of 175 strikeouts which will stand for a long time, but I will make a qualified prophecy that Nichol son has a chance to become the most exciting player in all base ball." .Short said Hie qualification was a question of Nicholson .Meeting the ball, "and that 'ould come any time." Huskies Pacing Big Six SAN FRANCISCO (UPI -University of Washington's Big Six leaders top the conference in three departments, according to statistics released today and including Saturday's games. The Huskies top the loop in total offense, with 315 yards per game; in rushing offense, aver aging 213 yards; and in rushing defense, allowing 141 yards.

(UPD "Let me tell you. It felt real great just holding the ball." Quarterback Bart Starr of the Green Bay Packers was talking about his return to "action" after suffering a broken bone in his throwing hand two weeks ago against the St. Louis Card, inals. "My hand feels much better. I can flex it again," Starr said. "But 1 still have no idea when I'll be able to really play again. Starr held liic ball for Jerry Kramer as the place kicking guard booted four field goals in four tries and three extra points to aid Green Bay to a 33-14 victory over Pittsburgh, their seventh win in a row this year and their second since Starr, Ilic league's top passer last year, was sidelined. Praises Roach Replacing Starr at quarter back has been John Roach, who has drawn praise from both Starr and Coach Vince Lombard!. "John is doing a fine job just great," said Starr. "Roach played real well. He called a heady game," said Lombardi after the latest win Sunday. Lombardi has indicated Starr get you in our power With the Polara 500 you aren't baked in on a certain engine. You can choose from a standard 318 cu. In.

Starr has started to pass in practice, but most of his time lias been spent on exercises along tlie sidelines and tutoring Roach and Zcke Bratkowski, obtained last week on waivers from the Los 'Angeles Rams. Bratkowski saw no action last Sunday. , Break Appears Healed Starr's hand has been in a splint since the injury, and the break seems to have just about healed. "It's just in getting the flexi bility back," Lombardi said. "The break heals fast." Starr's return, limited as it was, gave the entire Green Bay squad and especially Kramer -a lift. "Having Bart back tliere really helps," Kramer said. "You can really appreciate having a guy like him holding for you." Kramer s kicking day Sunday was tlie best of a two-year ca reer. Sty
