French Demand Some Firms Denationalized PARIS — Private industry demanded today that the government denationalize some of the industries which had been paralyzed by a 24-hour general strike. Tuesday's strike by nearly onemillion government employes effectively bottled up the nation's rail system, halted bus lines and crippled air service. The 24-hour walkout was a warning of more labor trouble to come unless the government bows to union demands for a 20 per cent pay raise.
Senators Seem Doomed To End In Cellar Spot : ORLANDO, Fla. (UP) — The 1 Washington Senators, who are geU ing used to finishing there, seem i doomed to wind up In the Ameri- I can League cellar again. ~, Even their maiiager, Cookie < Lavagetto, is so pessimistic that he’ll only go so far as to say, ' "Well win more games than we : did last year." He won’t admit it, but he’d settle right now for ' seventh place. The only ray of hope Lavagetto sees in the Senators’ 1958 outlook is that he plans to start the season with five new regulars and has what appears to be the best rookie pitcher in the Florida spring training camps. Promising Newcomer The newcomer is Ralph Lumenti, a 6-2 left-hander whom the Senators signed off the University of Massachusetts campus late last season. Lumenti was only the third player to whom the Senators ever paid a bonus — the others being third baseman Harmon Killebrew and outfielder Jerald Schoonmaker. Killebrew isn’t much of a glove man, but the 101 runs he batted in for Chattanooga last year while hitting 29 homers,, gives Lavagetto hope that he finally will be able to hit major league pptching. The other new regulars in Lavagetto’s scheme of things arc centerfielder Albie Pearson, catcher Steve Korcheck, first baseman Norm Zauchin, and scond baseman Bob Malkmus. Lavagetto rates Korcheck the top of ■ his four catchers., the others being veterans Ed Fitzgerald. Clint Courtney and Lou Berberet. That is Washington’s strongest department, and the Senators may collect dividends from it because several clubs, including some in the National League, are after catching help Zauchin at First Zauchin will be at'* first base with the National League castoff, Rocky Bridges at short. Veteran Eddie Yost is pushing Killebrew at third base while Herb Plews will take over second if Malkmus. a .291 hitter with Wichita, can’t make it. The Senators’ brightest star, Roy Sievers, the American League home run and runs batted in king, will be in left field with Jim Lemon in right if he hits. Otherwise Neil Chrisley, who batted -343 at in 1951;, Oirlos Paula, up from Minneapolis where he hit .288, or Whitey Herzog will be given a shot at the job. Hawks And Celtics To Renew Series Tonight ST LOUIS (IF — The St. Louis Hawks and the Boston Celtics, capable of stirring up a basketball donnybrook whenever they meet, will tangle once more tonight in the third game of their best-of-seven series* for the National Basketball Association crown.

Minoso Stars As Indians Beat Cubs — By FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer Those critics of Cleveland Indian General Manager Frank Lhne are being drowned out today by the thunder of Minnie Minoso’s bat. > And they’ll cease to exist at all if the newly-acquired Larry Doby ! pans out for the Indians the way Minoso is. Acquired Dec. 4 in a ‘ deal that involved the popular 1 Early Wynn and Al Smith, Min- 1 oso is enjoying one of the finest j springs of his nine-year career. 1 All the 34-year old native of ' Mantanzas, Cuba, did Tuesday was wallop three homers and a ■ single to drive in eight runs and j lead the Tribe to a 14-7 victory over the Chicago Cubs. That out- ■ bursh topped another terrific showing by Ernie Banks who smacked his 10th and 11th horn- ' ers of the spring and knocked in five runs for the losers. .Lane was criticized for .making ' both the Minoso and Doby deals but in reuniting sluggers who twice previously have been “roomies’ 1 he is trying to “wake up” a city whose attendance last season fell to 720,000. Bill Skowron knocked in eight runs with two homers and a single as’ the New York Yankees outslugged the Chicago White Sox, 15-11. Steve Bilko, fighting to win a job with Cincinnati, knocked in four runs with two homers off Curt Simmons to lead the Redlegs to a 9-2 triumph over the Philadelphia Phillies. The world champion Milwaukee Braves wound up their “home’’ exhibition season at Bradenton, Fla., with a 7-2 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates; the San Francisco Giants clinched the Cactus League title by beating the Baltimore Orioles, 4-1; the St. Louis Cardinals snapped the Boston Red Sox’ eight-game winning streak, 4-3; the Kansas City Athletics downed the Detroit Tigers, 4-1, and the Washington Senators shaded the Los Angeles Dodgers, 7-6, in 10 innings.

Featherweight Champion Wins By Knockout United Presa Sporte Writer LOS ANGELES (UP)- Dusky Nigerian featherweight champion Hogan (Kid) Bassey, who stalks an opponerft like a tiger, today accepted the plaudits of powerpunching Ricardo (Pajarito) Moreno as "the better man” after he scored a third-round knockout over the Mexican challenger. In the first defense of the title he won last June, Bassey weathered Moreno's bull-like rushs and lashing blows even thought they staggred him and then landed a jolting right to the head in the third round to drop Moreno for die full count after 2:58 minutes Tuesday night. “Bassey proved to me he was the better man,” Moreno said as he wept unashamed in his dressing room following a quick ending to the scheduled 15-round title bout. Quick Like a Cat “They said he was quick like a cat and hft hard — he did,” Moreno said as he shook his head in disbelief. Hie champion, with the dignity befitting the holder of the Order of the British Empire which was awarded him by Queen Elizabeth last New Year’s Day, paid tribute to Moreno for his punching ability. “He hurt me with every punch,” Bassey said, screwing up his face in mock pain as he discussed the bout “But I I had him in the second round.” The abrupt ending left the crowd of around 17,000 fans almost gasping in astonishment. The gate was estimated at $220,000. The predominantly Mexican audience had expected more from their favorite who has a record of 29 knockouts in 34 fights. Moreno, realizing that his chief hope was to score an early knockout, came rushing out of his cor-

Montreal Canadiens Sweep Detroit Series By UNITED PRESS The Montreal Canadiens, who "rocketed” into the Stanley Cup playoffs finals in four straight games, sit back today to enjoy at least one week of rest while the New York Rangers and Boston Bruins battled for the other berth. The Canadians swept their best-of-seven semi-final series from the Detroit Red Wings with a 4-3 victory Tuesday night as the incomparable Maurice Rocket Richard turned the three-goal “hat trick.” Meanwhile, the Rangers whipped the Bruins, 5-2, to their series at two games apiece. The remaining games are scheduled April 3, 5 and 8, all on Boston ice. ner at the bell for the opening round and began throwing powerful but awkward-looking punches that Bassey said afterward carried plenty of authority. — The crowd was sent into hysterical cheers when Moreno staggered the shorter Bassey midway in the round with a series of jolting lefts and an occasional right. And he followed that up by pinning the champ in a neutral corner and again staggered him to take the round on all cards. Cheering Ends But that ended most of the cheering so far as the supporters of Morejpo were concerned. In the climactic third round Bassey followed up his secondround advantage, sinking his fist into Moreno’s midriff and then following tip with looping blows to the head. The knockout punch was a battering right to the head'that sank Moreno to his knees, and he then keeled over slowly on his back in own corner 'while referee Tommy Hart tolled the full counj. Bassey weighed 124 pounds for the fight, Moreno 124%. Bassey’s handlers said he would leave almost immediately for Liverpool. Moreno’s handlers were too dazed to think of future plans
Masters Golf Tourney Will Open Thursday AUGUSTA, Ga (UP) - The Masters golf tournament, won by relative youngsters the past three I years, starts Thursday for the 22nd time with four old timers . making perhaps a last grand effort to stave off the new generation. Jimmy Demaret and Sam J Snead, the only three-time winners in Masters history, along with two-time winner and fourtime runner-up Ben Hogan and Lloyd Mangrum, holder of the record 18-hole score in Masters play, know this may be it if they are ever going to win the big one : again. Dominate for Six Years i For six years, 1949 through ■ 1954, Snead, Demaret and Hogan dominated the Masters scene, • Slammin’ Sammy winning in 1949, ■ ’52 and in a 1954 playoff over Ho- ’ gan. Demaret, who had also won • in 1940 and ’47, was the 1950 winner, and Hogan emerged on top • In 1951 and ’53. But the past three years have ’ been dominated by the younger generation. Cary Mlddlecoff, the golfing dentist from Memphis, ; won in 1955, Jackie Burke Jr., in ; 1956, and Doug Ford was victorious by three strokes over Snead 1 last year. Snead posted a three under par t 69 Tuesday over the 6,850-yard i cours which most of the pros j said played “long” due to heavy recent rains. Hogan had a three - over par 75 practice round. i Venturi Five Under i Ken Venturi, the California t youngster picked by Snead and j other veterans as a favorite in . the tournament founded by the r ailing Bobby Jones, showed Tuesday he intends to live up to his 1 billing.
