Spring Baseball Wonders Get 1st Big Test Today

I

By Jack Hand

NEW YORK. April 28 m (AP) - flow conics the first big test for the spring wonders of baseball - St. Louis Browns. Cincinnati Reds. liliznacn Cubs and Boston Red Sox. East. meets West for tiie first time irnim-row. in the next 10 days you'll get is solid line on the '52 outlook.

The Browns. shorn of their Am- frll'.'Ill lmazile lead in Cnicagu. limcl rzisl in open their first road inn at Yankee Stadium against the urrld ('llflllil)l0i'l New York Yonk- Ills.

with a 7-2! record and Bob Cain ))l'il'nr'tl to pitch. the Browns figure in make more trouble than usual mr Casey Stengel. whose Yanks uhzpprd the Browns 17 out of 22 inst. year. The Yanks. struggling under the .500 mark, welcome ha"; Yogi Berra tomorrow. But they lose Gerry Coleman to the Marines Wednesday.

With big Ted Kluszewskl boom- ing along at a .400 clip and ill runs batted in. Cincinnati greets New York Giants at Crosley Field. The Giants beat them 17 of 22 last sea- son and have Sal Maglie ready to face the disappointing Ewell Black- well or Harry Perkowski in the opener. Actually the Reds with an (1-3 record have is better start than the Browns.

Chicago is shouting about its Cubs who have won seven of 10. Frankie Baumholtz. n. .284 hitter last year. is batting .450 and Rain- snm Jackson already has hit four homcrs. They open their home stand against Philadeiphlafhillies.

In the American League. the Red Sox are almost as surprising as the Browns. They still have Ted Williams. due to go into the Mar- ines Friday. but Ted has been hob- bled by injuries. This collection of kids and vet: is leading the league by iv, games.

The Red so: welcome Detroit to Fenway Park with some misgivings. The Tigers looked pitiful in losing eight straight but they snapped out of it to shut out Cleveland twice during the week-end.

For all 16 major league clubs this is the shakedown period. Rookies must produce or else.

U. S. Hoop Star Indicted 0n Perjury Charge

NEW YORK, April 2B-(CP)- Bill Spivey. seven-foot all-Amerl- can basketball star at the Univer- sity of Kentucky, was indicted for perjury by a grand jury today.

District Attorney Frank I-logan, investigating the widespread col- lege basketball scandals. issued n warrant for Spiveyla arrest.

Splvey is in Fayetteville. I(y.. Hogan said. Spibey testified before the

grand jury Feb. 2'! on the mush- rooming scandal that so far has involved eight United States col- leges, more than 30 players and 24 "fixes" and material witnesses.

The indictment charged that Spivey falsely denied in his testi- money that he discussed "before practically every game played by his team during December, 1950 and January. 1951" the "possibil- ity" of making a deal with an alleged fixer to "control" scores and that he accepted 51.000 "as a result of such deals and arrange- ments" in December, 1950 and January. 1951.

Hogan said that when Spivey appeared before the grand jury he "was not as d to waive im- munity, and if he had told the truth. he would not have been subject to prosecution because the bribe-taking was not in New York."

Spivey, who did not play last season. repeatedly denied any im- plication in the scandals.

Sickness has dealtl the saint

Dunstan's University basketball team a hard blow. Yesterday after- noon their ace sharpshooter. Jacl: Reardon. was taken to the Char- lottetown Hospital with what med- ical authorities fear is an attack oz appendicitis. Reardon was still in

mates were playing the Air Force

known until today whether or not he will undergo an operation. 0 C 0

In addition in losing Reardon the Saints have also lost Pete Dun- phy as the result of an attack of pneumonia. several weeks ago. To- gether Reardon and Dunphy form- ed two thirds of the S.D.U. first string attack and during the regu- lar league schedule they racked up Ills points between them with Reardon accounting for 263 points and Dunphy for 122. With Joe Mul- lally they formed the best line in the Island basketball circuit.

0 O O

This time yesterday the saints were favored to Win the Island hoop crown but ihc scales were upset last night in Summerside when the.al:'- men defeated the Coilegians by a 51-39 count. The R.C.A.F.. who finished second in the regular league. will go into Wednesday night's game as solid favorites to win the championship. The gamz will be played in the SD. U. gym- nasium.

O O

This game. which will bring the basketball season to A close. should be a. thriller. Coach Smerdon of the Air Force has a smart team and this year they were the only is- land team which proved able to win it game from the Saints. The Saints. although short-handed. will) be tough to beat in their own gyml especially when the Island title is at stake.

O O The championship will be de- cided Wednesday night and the winning team will succeed Prince of Wales College as Provincial title- holders. It will be remembered that last year Earl Nicholson coached P.W.C. to its first Island basket- ball championship after a tough series with S.D.U. in which Rear- don put on one of the finest shoot- ing displays this observer has ever seen. The Welshman last year had the MacAndrew Brothers, Jack and Bill. Garth Crockett. Charlie I-line. Ian Ashford and several other out- standing players on their lineup. The formation of a four team Island baseball league is being con- sidered in both Charlottetown and summersl" . it has been learned here. Sunday afternoon the Abeg- welt baseball committee met and afterwards chairman Danny Mac- Cormack stated that he was in la- vor of seeing such a league form- ed. This circuit would consist of two teams from Charlottetown. one from summerslde and one from the Summerside Air station. 0 O 0 The inclusion of Charlottetow and Bummerside junior teams would probably go a long way in further- ing the success or such a. league. Last year these two teams engaged in several outstanding play-oft bat- tles to decide the Island champion- ship and every one of these games were of ii. high calibre. We believe that'these junior teams could stand up pretty well against the inter- mediates and possibly even beat them. If they could then we have the makings of an entertaining league..

0 I I

Last year the Abbles had a jun- ior team that was narrowly squeez- ed out of the Maritime title by the springhili Tankers. The Tankers won the first game. the Ab'bies the second. and the Tankers took the third. All of these players or pract- lcsiiy all of them. are still of jim- ior age. we have been informed. and we would see them play tolle- tiier as s. team throughout this set- son. The answer may be to put them into competition in some fun- lor league and if such can be tir- ranged. all well and good. if not give them a crack at the intermed- istes. ) . . .

The intermediates. too. will ben- efit by playing throughout the sea- son as s team. These fellows still have a right to play ball and a lot of them are pretty fair ball play- ers. It still gives its quite a bit of pleasure to see fellows like "Buck" Whltlock. Glen "atheson, Charlie Ryan. Irving iilsclflnnon. "Bpy" Ready. "Lefty" MscAleer and Jack- ls Cairns perform on the diamond. It'l been five years since Charlotte- town has won the'IsIsnd inter- mediate title and this could be their year.

Pirate illuli owners To Big Down For 3300.000 "Touch"

PITTSBURGH. April 28-(AP)- Pirate Club owners John Gal- breath. Tom Johnson and Bing Crosby will soon vote Branch Rickey a 3300.000 vote of confi- dence.

While official confirmation has been lacking. the writer learned from ii source close to the club that each of the three owners will be tapped for 5100.000 to put into the club treasury lo bolster an already weakened till, and in anticipation of another losing fin- ancial year.

The 5300.000 "touch" will be added to the 3225.000 the owners put up last fall when the Pirate treasury was drained by an all- out drive by General Manager Rickey to build up a farm system

that would produce good ball players and a winning club for Pittsburgh.

It is reliably reported that

Rickey spent well in excess of 3600.000, during 1951 in the sign- ing of several hundred young players and pouring money into 15 minor league affiliates.

The Plrates' string of nine straight losses and the consequent drop in attendance is expected in put the club in another flnsnclal hole.

We just finished looking over a very interesting scrap book on sport compiled by that ardent sports enthusiast. "Pomp" Le- Blanc. The book is one which any local sports fan would be glad to have in his possession. It contains beautiful colored pictures of many N. 1-1.1... hockey players of the present and past. and also some interesting shots of local teams of Prince County. some accounts of games of the past are also in- cluded.

"Pomp" is public hockey fan No. 1 of the sports-minded little town of Kcnsiiigton, and many lively "hot-stove league" sessions have been held in his barber shop.
