- - — ■* ————«•*< Kaline Stars In Tiger Win Over Dodgers By FRED DOWN United Press International Their sharpest critics concede the Detroit Tigers won’t roll over like kittens when the American League season gets underway. Tabbed as perhaps the New York Yankees* chief pennant rival, the Tigers have won seven of their last nine 'exhibition games and have an overall 11-6 Grapefruit League record. They’ve had uniformly good pitching and Al Kaline now shows promise of making a fast start. Kaline, who got off to a woeful start last season, drove in five runs with two doubles and a sacrifice fly Monday when the Tigers scored an 84 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers. It was the fourth straight loss for the Dodgers who won 10 of their first 13 games. Paul Foytack, a 15-game winner last season, became the second Detroit pitcher to go nine innings with a steady-enough 10-hit-ter. Johnny Podres, who inherited a 1-0 lead from Art Fowler in the fifth inning was hammered for six runs and seven hits in three innings. Braves Blast Cards The Milwaukee Braves, smarting under charges that they were loafing in spring training, took it all out on the St. Louis Cardinals with a 15-hit attack that produced a 12-2 truimph. Hank Aaron's three-run homer and four hits by Del Rice sparked the assault while Carlton Willey and Bob Rush limited the Cardinals to six hits. Chuck Cottier handled 13 chances flawlessly to further his bid for the Braves’ regular sec-ond-base job. The New York Yankees blanked the Cincinnati Reds, 4-0, the Boston Red Sox pulled out a ninthinning 6-5 decision over the Cleveland Indians, the Chicago Cubs outslugged the San Francisco Giants, 10-B,° in a hear dust storm, the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Washington Senators, 11-7, the Pittsburgh Pirates downed the Baltimore Orioles, -8-4, and the Chicago White Sox edged- out the Kansas City Athletics, 8-7, in other games.

I in seven shutout innings for the Yankees and Virgil Trucks completed the whitewashing. Don Newcombe allowed four runs and as many hits in seven innings for the Reds, whose five-game winning streak was ended. Sam White's ninth-inning single drt>ve in Dick Gernert with the Red Sox’ winning run but Boston lost its third left-fielder in four days when left-fielder Gary Geiger was injured in a collision with shortstop Don Buddin. Geirger was unconscious for 15 minutes and eventually was taken from Scottsdale to Phoenix, Ariz., for X-rays. Dale Long hit two of the eight homers as the Cubs and Giaifts played a weird dust-filled game. Ernie Banks and George Altman also connected for the Cubs and Bob Speake, Jackie Brandt. Eddie Bressoud and Willie McCovey homered lor the Giants. Jack Kralick, impressive Washington rookie, allowed one scratch hit until the Phillies rocked him for six runs in the sixth inning. Ed Bouchee's two-run hbmer in the eighth put the ' finishing touches on the Phillies’ win. Kralick had pitched 18 scoreless innings this spring before the Phillies caught up to him. Kline Goes Distance Ron Kline became the second Pittsburgh pitcher to go nine innings although tapped for 14 hits by the Orioles. It was a messy game in which the Pirates combined eight hits, five walks and three Baltimore errors for their runs. Ted Kluszewski had three of Pittsburgh’s hits and Kline drove in three runs. Dick Donovan allowed one run and six hits in seven innings for the White Sox, who scored all their runs off. Ned Garver.

Wall Is Winner Oi Azalea Open Meet WILMINGTON, N.C. (UPD-Art Wall Jr., the putting magician who captured top money in the Azalea Open golf tournament here, will carry the largest winnings in PGA history into the Masters tournament at Augusta Thursday. The serious-minded student of golf pounded out a 73 Monday on the wind-blown, rain-soaked Cape Fear Country Club course to add $2,000 to his status as golf’s top money-winner. He now has won $18,814 so far this year. The Pocono Manor, Pa., pro’s 73 was one stroke over par 72, but his 72-hole total of 282 was six strokes off par and more than enough to give him fl comfortable margin over his closest opponents. Making a last-round bid for the championship was his former Duke University roommate, Mike Souchak of Grossinger. N.Y. Souchak closed down Wall's Sunday five-stroke lead to three with a 36 on the front nine while Wall had a 38. Souchak picked up $1,500 for second prize. Dow Finsterwald of Tequesta, Fla.,, closed with a brilliant 68 and a 72-hole 287 for the $1,200 third place money. Bert Weaver of Beaumont. Tex., with a final round of 72 for 290 was fourth and took away SI,OOO. Defending champion Howie Johnson of San Marcos, Calif., played his second straight poor round but won S4OO fifth place money with a 296. Bn • ’cores Merchant League W. L. Pts.

Washington Is , Sorriest Team ■ Among Majors I • (Editor’s Noto: This to the f 14th dispatch on the prospects i of the major league clubs for • 1959.) i > By LEO H. PETERSEN i UPI Sports Editor ORLANDO, Fla. (UPl)—What ; can you say about the Washing- , ton Senators after you say you're > sorry? i They are the sorriest excuse for 1 a major league club around and . no one knows it better than their • manager, Cookie Lavagetto. How- ’ ever, with a straight face he says s he hopes the club will win 70 • games this year — which still ' would probably leave them in the i cellar. I That would be nine more victories than they scored in 1958 ’ when for the third time in the [ last four years they finished - eighth. i “I’m hopeful we'll win more t this year because our kids have i had another year’s experience, > and if they live up to their potential, we should be better,” La- : vagetto said. He singled out rookie outfielder ’ Bob Allison, infielder Reno Bertoia and third baseman Harmon Killebrew as “three players who could make a difference.” Macy Positions Unsettled Allison hit .307 at Chattanooga last year with only nine homers but had 93 runs batted in. lavagetto plans to play him in left field if he uses Washington's hitting star, Roy Sievers, at first. Otherwise, Allison, will be in right instead of big Jim Lemon. Little Albie Pearson, the American League’s 1958 Rookie-of-the-Year, will be in center. Lavagetto would like to keep Sievers in left field, but»he isn’t sure that Norm Zauchin can make it at first base. Zauchin hit only H .228 last year, but will get a shot at the job again. The only first baseman available is Julio Becquer, w’ho was used mainly in pinch hitting roles. Bertoia, obtained from Detroit, will play second if Killebrew, one of the three bonus players in Washington's history,can make...it at third. Otherwise, Bertoia will take over third with Herb Plews, who held down the position last year but hit only .258, at second. Ken Aspromote,’ a disappointment last season after the Senators acquired him from the Boston Red Sox, and Bob Malkipyg, whom Lavagetto was so high on last spring, are other second base candidates. Malkmus hit a lowly .186. The Senators are in desperate i! need of a. shortstop-. All they have I ’ now is Ron Samford, who may nfjt I be ready by opening day because of arm trouble, and Jose Valdivi?lso. Samford hit .301 at Charleston, Valdivielsp .308 at Phoenix and later in the' year .222 at Minneapolis. j Clint Courtney, who rated as the No. 1 catcher, broke a bone in his right leg, is expected to be ’ ready for the season’s opening game. Ed Fitzgerald, J. W. Porter, who also can play first base or the outfield, and Steve Korcheck are reserve receivers. Their 1 1958 batting averages were: Fitzgerald .263; Porter .200 with Cleveland, and Korcheck only .078 with Washington. Weak In Pitching 1 Lavagetto has two ace starting pitchers in’ Camilio Pascual (8-12) : and Pedro Ramos (14-18) and a fine reliever in Dick Hyde (10-3). But all three have been mentioned in trade talk. As other possible starters Lavagetto lists, in order, Trurngg Clevenger (9-9), Chuck Stobbs . (3-9) overall with the Senators - and Cardinals last year), Russ > Kemmerer (6-15), Vito ValentinetI ti <5-6 with Detroit and Washington) and Bill Fischer <4-10 with , the White Sox, Tigers and Senators). If not needed as a starter, Clevenger will be in the bullpen with Hyde. Another relief possibility is southpaw John Kralick, who spent most of last season ih semi-pro ball. It doesn’t add up to much pitchs ing, or anything else for' the Senai tors. 1 Horse, Pony Club ■ To Meet Thursday - The Adams county Horse and 1 Pony 4-H club will meet at the 1 Adams Central high school library r Thursday at 7:30 p.m. 1 :

New Conference To Be Rose Bowl Host PASADENA, Calif. (UPD-The newly-organized Athletic Association of Western Universities, which arose like w a phoenix from the ashes of the Pacific Coast Conference, today held the Rose Bowl football game as its first major trophy. The AAWU, which officially comes to life July 1, and the Tournament of Roses Association announced jointly at a press conference late Monday that the new conference had reached an agreement with sponsors of ihe New Year’s Day football game to furnish the Western representative. The AAWU and the tournament association acted while the Big Ten still had under consideration extension of the closed agreement for the New Year’s Day classic beyond the 1960 games. Dr. Frank Kudner, chairman pro-tern of the AAWU and faculty representative of the University of California, joined with Tournament of Roses President Ray mood A. Dorn in announcing the new agreement. The new conference at present is composed of California, UCLA, Southern California and Washington, but Stanford University, which participated in discussions leading to its organization, still is eligible for charter membership.

I AAWU, which ruled out selecting anyone outside the AAWU to represent it in the Rose Bowl. Both spokesmen said the agreement visualized the same terms as in the past with the PCC, which meant that a team would be eligible only once in two years. The agreement was announced before the AAWU officially came to life, it was understood, in order to give Big Ten advocates of the Rose Bowl game the argument that an organized group of top-rankin Western universities was the host conference. Big Ten faculty representatives had voted in favor of continuation of the Rose Bowl agreement last month, but the final vote does not come for another month. Ted Williams Is Hopeful Os Playing BOSTON (UPD — Red Sox slugger Ted Williams remained hopeful today that he would be in Boston’s opening day lineup, but physicians attending him did not share his optimism.

The south Side senior holds every scoring record in Fort Wayne and Allen county history. Die only returnee from South's 1958 state champions, Tom racked up 583 points during the regular season to lead the Archers to a fine 22-5 record.

Bolyard's superlative scoring efforts and consistent defensive play and rebounding earned him a spot in Parade Magazine’s high school all-Amer-ican second team. Only one other Indiana player was selected for national honors... on the fourth team. On Feb. 7, against Gary Froebel, Tom tallied 48 points on 16 goals and 16 free throws to give him the city scoring record. He scored more than 20 points in every game this season.
