« ( Yankees Announce All Players Signed By UNITED PRESS The seven other teams in the American League today found themselves in a familiar position ' —chasing the New York Yankees. The world champions proudly proclaimed “all hands on deck” when the official date for the t opening of spring training was reached Friday, while each of their seven league rivals counted holdouts in their ranks. Leading the holdout parade ’ were the Boston Red Sox and the Cleveland Indians with four players each. The Bosox “rebels" : were Jim Piersail, Sammy White, 1 Billy Klaus and Gene Stephens. Cleveland still needed the signatures of Chico Carrasquel, Rudy Regalado, Dick Tomanek and John Gray. _. The other unsigned American League players were Ellis Kinder, • Jim McDonald and Tom Brown of ■ the White Sox; Roy Sievers, Clint Courtney and Evelio • Hernandez of the Senators; Willie Miranda of . the Orioles; Mickey McDermott and Tom Morgan of the Athletics, and Gil Coan of the Tigers. There were only three unsigned players in ■ the entire National League — Lew Burdette and Bill Bruton of the Braves and Sandy Amoros of the Dodgers. The Tigers signed three of their “stragglers,” — Billy Hoeft, Eddie Robinson and Roy Hawesjust before launching their fullscale drills Friday at Lakeland, Fla. Bubbling with optimism, rookie Manager Jack Tighe gave the 41-player Detroit squad an old-time pep talk before the practice session. At West Palm Beach, Fla., Hal Smith and Hector Lopez finally came to terms With the Athletics. Manager Lou Boudreau then sent the A’s through morning and aft- - ernoon drills, which featured the ' lusty hitting of Bob Cerv and Gus Zernial.

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR. INDIANA

64 Sectional ■ Champs To Be Named Tonight INDIANAPOLIS (UP) — Round One of Indiana’s 47th annual high school basketball tourney—a dull affair so far in the absence of a single “king-size” upset—grinds to a halt tonight with the crowning of 64 sectional champions. Although 27 first-round champions have been eliminated in three days and nights of preliminary firing—including 11 Friday —the only appreciable state-wide upsets were Anderson’s defeat by Elwood, Hammond Noll’s beating of East Chicago Washington, both Wednesday, and New Albany’s 51-45 derailment at the hands of Corydon Friday. New Albany was a member of the “Fieldhouse Four” two years ago and licked Corydon early in the season, 79-71. Every season-long front-runner with the exception of Evansville Central, co-champ of the Southern Conference, was still accounted for. The Bears bowed to tough city foe Lincoln Friday night, 52-39. Roosevelt Nips Mann Gary Roosevelt, fourth in the state, and eighth-ranked Elkhart had the toughest time among the “name” teams Friday night. Ron Heflin pumped in seven of his 29 points in the last 3:29 minutes to wipe out Gary Mann's 52-51 lehd. Thfe Panthers wound up with a 61-58 decision—the third time they bested the Horsemen by three points this season. High-scoring Harry Manushaw bagged only 14 points for the losers. Elkhart’s 1956 tourney finalists nipped stalling Nappanee, 43-38. The Bulldogs, nursing an U-game victory string, led 29-17 at the half, but Elkhart took charge of the game in the final stanza. Afternoon features included Fort Wayne Central-Fort Wayne South and Hartford City-Roil, at L p.m. Terre Haute Garfield-Terre Haute Wiley at 2 p.m., Elkhart-New Paris at 2:15 p.m., and East Chicago Roosevelt-Hammond, Evansville Lincoln-Evansville Bosse, Gary Roosevelt-Gary Froebel, Madison-Scottsburg, and Terre Haute Gerstmeyer-Terre Haute Schulte, all at 3 p.m. CDT. n) 4 Left The latest defending sectional titlists besides New Albany to hit the skids included Warsaw at Syracuse, Jefferson Twp. at Noblesville, Avilla at Kendallville, Plainville at Washington, Danville, Rushville, Akron at Peru, Hymera at Sullivan, Portage at Valparaiso, and Ambia at Fowler. Larry Reynolds cashed 4 in on 20 points, including the winning bucket with 45 seconds left, to lead Loogootee St. John’s to a 54-53 win over Plainville. Defending state champion Indianapolis Attacks and runner-up Lafayette along with top-ranking South Bend Central and Terre Haute Gerstmeyer led the elite into the sectional showdown round. Gerstmeyer toyed with Pimento Friday night, 82-50. Attacks had more of a struggle before downing Indianapolis Wood, 61-55. Sentimentalists were pulling for the three small-town unbeatens, together with the South Benders the only perfect-record quintets in the tourney. Lewisville, Otterbein and Windfall all own 22-game winning streaks. Windfall turned back Sheridan at Noblesville Friday night, 64-55, while Otterbein eked out a 47-44 win over Ambia. Tourney Thrillers Such tourney stalwarts of other years as Frankfort and Franklin came to the end of the tourney grind. Frankfort’s four-time state champs were derailed by little Forest in overtime, 53-50. Franklin, only school to pull oft three in a row in the 19205, was pommeled by Southport at Center Grove, 75-49 Etna Green made it 22 straight after an opening-game loss, whipping host Syracuse, 75-50, but Union Twp.’s classy 22-1 record was shattered by LaPorte at Michigan City, 57-42. In the thrill-to-the-finish department, Paul Flptley hit a freethrow, then a basket with a second to go to give Richmond a 58-55 win over Williamsburg. 4ack Hicks connected for the winning bucket with 13 seconds left in Trafalgar’s 51-50 win over Union Twp., at Center Grove. At Peru, a pair <6 freethrows by Dee Williams gave Fulton a 60-59 double overtime win over Macy. Phil Wills, who averaged better than 41 points per game during the season for Grass Creek, banged in 34, but Jim James got the winning fielder with tw» seconds left in a 67-65 overtime win over Kewanna at Logansport. New York Warned By Brooklyn President VERO BEACH, Fla. (UP) —Walter F. O'Malley, president of the Brooklyn Dodgers, warned New York’s city fathers again today that “time is running out” on finding a new home for the team. Trade in a geed town — Decatur

North Carolina Ends Regular Card Unbeaten I By EARL WRIGHT t United Press Sports Writer 1 Lennie Rosenblnth sparked the i North Carolina, Tar Heels to ma- > jor college basketball's only perj feet* record this season, but don’t expect Coach Frank McGuire to flash his biggest smile for a few l weeks yet. McGuire's Tar Heels ended ’ their regular campaign with a 24-0 i record Friday night when they invaded Durham, N.C., and handed ; Duke its first home court defeat , of the season, 86-72. Rosenbluth . scored 40 points, including eight ' in the last three minutes after Duke had rallied to lead, 7W». But McGuire and his players can't relax.

UCLA Beats California At Berkeley, Calif., Dick Banton's 35 points helped fifth-ranked UCLA edge a half-game ahead Os California in the Pacific Conference race with a 71-66 victory. The game was marred by brief fights on the floor and in the stands. It promises to be an Interesting weekend at Berkeley, because the two leaders clash again Saturday night. Brigham Young, led by John Benson and Harry Anderson, clinched at least a tie for the Skyline Conference title by trouncing last-place New Mexico, 67-41. The Dayton Flyers ended their regular season with an 18-8 record when they visited the Univer-, sity of Cincinnati and won, 67-63. Both Dayton and Cincinnati will play in the National Invitation Tournament. Temple, scrambling for a tournament bid, increased its chances by upsetting St. Bonaventure, 72-69. in overtime at Philadelphia. St. Bonaventure, already in the NIT, couldn’t cope with Mel Brodsky and Guy Rodgers, who scored 22 and 21 points, respectively. Scoring Lead At Stake Grady Wallace of South Carolina, tending the close major college scoring race with a 30.48point average, ends his regular season tonight against Clemson. Wilt Chamberlain, who ranks fourth with a 29.2 average, leads Kansas, the nation's No. 2 team, in a game at Colorado. Chet Forte, the 5-9 star who stands fifth with 29.14, leads Columbia at Pennsylvania. Joe Gibbon of Mississippi, second with 30.05, and Elgin Baylor of Seattle, third with 30.0, have ended their regular campaigns. Indiana and Michigan State,, sharing first place, clash Saturday night in an important Big Ten game.

Although the 1957 roster fell 33 short of that mark, there were 29 stakes winners — one out of every five—among the young horses being pointed for the one and one-quar-ter mile gallop for geld and glory. A total of 88 owners paid sloo* for each of the horses they named for the first of the triple crown classics with Calumet Farm revealing a strong band with six nominations pad the Wheatley Stable just as powerful with only one.
