Braves Hopp’

[Closer to

National F lag

BOSTON, Feb. 6 (U, P.). — The Boston Braves were a “Hopp” closer to their long-sought National league pennant today.

Joost to close the deal, the bought Outfielder Johnny Hopp, another key performer from the St. Loliis Cardinal’ championship clubs of 1942, '43 and '44, last night. Hopp joins his old boss, Billy Southworth, who was wooed from the Cardinals to manage the Braves, and his former team mate, pitcher Morton Cooper, who came to Bos ton early last season. The speedy Hopp, one of Southe worth’s favorites at St. Louis because of his hustle, his daring base running, and his brilliant defensive play, fits excellently into the new type of a club that “Billy the Kid” is building for Braves’ fans. Southworth said he was delighted that the deal had been made and that he would put Hopp in center field for the 1946 campaign where he will be able to make best use of his speed and range. Joost, a utility infielder, will go to the Cardinal farm at Rochester, N. Y, in the International league. Hopp had a .289 average with the Cardinals last season.

Select Lonborg - ‘Coach of Week’

EVANSTON, Ill, Feb. 6 (U. P.).~= When Northwestern: beat Notre Dame last week-end for the first loss of the season for the Irish, it was an upset to everyone except those who follow Dutch Lonborg closely. Lonborg, Northwestern mentor and United Press “Coach of the Week,” planned carefully for the Notre Dame game, knowing that the pressure was all on the Irish, trying to preserve their perfect rece ord. Lonborg brought his team— and particularly his star, Max Moreris—to a peak for the contest. Northwestern was alert and aggres= sive. Morris was unerring. Northwestern led almost from the start, and coolly met a late Notre Dame rally with a rush of their own. Morris’ final basket of a 23point splurge settled the game, 58 to 55. This 4s Lonborg’s 18th sea= son as head coach at the Evanston school. He has won the Big Ten championship on two occasions.
