For practically any other club in the American League to lose a men who batted .308 last year and hit 13 home runs would be in the nature of a calamity. Yet Yankee followers dismiss it with a "too i had. ain't it?" attitude. l Skowron is a first baseman of sorts and a third baseman out of sorts. you might say. That is, he is acceptable at first hat. but no great shakes at the hot corner. where he had been working thlli spring on the chance he would do a good lob there and give rookie Merv Thronebcrry a chance to take over the first base Job. Throneherryiwhacked 4: home runs and hit for a .315 average for Denver last year. and such a rac- ord rates a good trial by any major league club. But Throneberry is only a rookie. and with Skowron out of action for a spell all the Yankees have ice Sports At North River Following are results of ice lporls held at North River rink last Friday night: Girls 7 yrs and under:- I.

Yep, Yankees really are in bad shape without Skowron.

Smythe Takes Blame For Poor Year NEW YORK ft.'Pl -- Conn Smythe Spnday took solo respon- siblllty for "a year of failure" by his Toronto Maple Leafs. now elim- inated from the National Hockey League playoffs. but said any changes in ,the club will have to be conside ed by the team direc- tors. The Maple Leafs' president and general manager. here for Sunday night's Toronto game with New York Rangers. said at a press con- ference that would "not even rule out a change in the president" if that would restore the once-great club to the top brackets of the league. He said there has been no decl- eion made yet on any player changes for next season. or on whether general manage Hap Day or coach Howie Meeker might get a change in jobs. Smythe had a few hitter words about the NHL plny2rs' associa- tion in connection with next years plans for the Leafs. He referred to the pleyers' negotiating group as an organisation 'spewned in secrecy" and added: "Next year our players will have to understand that they owe IN per cent loyalty to the team." lion Delaney Sets Toumey Record CHICAGO (AP)-Ros Dcieny. of Villenovs by way of Ireland, a tournament mile-run record lntueday night of 4:013 before lc.ooo cheering fans.
