Key Men Lost
Loss of these men should cause
any coach to turn headed
and there's no proof that Howard
Harding Jones hasn't lost a few
already grey hairs worrying over
the situation. But there is an air
of optimism at Southern Califor-
mia, the nucleus of another great
team, and the possibility that
some of the newcomers may ca
pably replace the departed stall
warts.
Dependable veterans on hand
include Bob Peoples, Jack Banta,
and Bob Robertson in the back
field. Peoples, the javelin cham
pion from Oklahoma, has been
shifted from fullback, where he
was highly. important, to; the
quarterback spot, in which he will
bear the brunt of the Trojan Of
Tense under Jones system.
Pressing him for the starting
call. however, will be a sturdy
piece of creased lightning, Mickey
Anderson. Anderson starred in
1938-he was a preliminary fac
tor in the drive that led to the
victory touchdown against Duke
but stayed out of the picture en-
tirely last season. Jones, you'll re-
member, was loaded down with
stellar quarterbacks. Well, Mickey
a track star, is ready for real
football now.

be Floyd Phillips, who weighs

DiMaggi0 Shadows Field
Perhaps the only objection to
DiMaggio's nomination would be
that he has not played the full

better, faster fielder than the
others.
Chef Ross came up unheralded
and turned out to be one OF the
finds of the year. Nicholson, like
Boudreau and Mack. played quite
few games last year but this
season Is his first full campaign
and entities him to rookie con-
sideration. He is hitting over 300
and has batted up upwards of 70
runs. Others who rate very close
to this trio are Maurice Van Ro-

Mike Mccormick.

BEANBALL Often
BATTER'5 FAULT,
SAYS 0LDTIMER
AP Feature Service

PORTLAND, Ore. Sept. H. -
Ernie johnson, who played ID
years of give and take major
league baseball and now is the
Boston Red Sox West Coast scout,
believes that guessing on curve
ball" and not deliberate beanballs
cause most batting injuries.
The scrappy ex-diamond star
doesn't think much of the sugges-
ton that batters wear helmets to
protect them from beanballs, de-
claring "it's the silliest bunk
ever heard
Pitchers have knocked down
and busted off batters since there
was professional baseball, and
will continue to do it, but it isn't
this so-called beanball that hits
them on the head" he says.
Guessing on curve ball, a ter
ribly dangerous practice, causes
most of it. Occasionally there's
trouble on a ball the hitter loses
sight of, or a wild heaye from a
very wild man.
johnson added that during his
playing days he dared pitchers to
throw at his head and that they
couldn't hit him if they tried all
day.
I'll tell you what will happen
if they make batters wear he'll
mets-the pitchers will feel free
to really cut loose at them then,
and gosh, how the 'beanballs' will
fly.
ITO stop having batters hit on
the head is simple enough" John
son declared. Let the batters quit
guessing; the man who always
looks for a fast ball will never
be hit on the head"

NEW YORK, Sept. II. - Every
major league club shared in the
bountiful rookie harvest this year
and each can offer a candidate for
All-Star rookie team selections.
Cleveland came up with a pair
of aces, Lou Boudreau and Ray
Mack, who are driving the Indians
toward an American League pen
nant. Brooklyn brought up the
most, ballyhooed recruit = Harold
(Pee fWee) Reese-and he more
than lived up to his advance bill
in, in contrast to the failure OF
the advertised Fred Hutchinson
OF Detroit year ago. The Boston
Bees surprised with Carvel Rowell
who paced National League batters
in mid-August.

GARDEN PRODUCTS HELD in
HOME VEGETABLE STORAGES

Successful home storage of sur
plus vegetables requires food heal
thy vegetables at the start of the
storage season. Vegetables that are
overripe or infected in any way
with diseases or insects will spoil
rapidly even in the best type of home
storage.
Vegetable crops vary in their
storage requirements. Beets, car
rots, satisfy. winter radishes, horse
radish, winter apples, cabbage, par
nips, potatoes and turnips keep best
in a cold, moist atmosphere. These
conditions can be provided cheaply
by outdoor mounds, pits or cellars.
For small growers, mounds and
pits are used most frequently.
w. H. Phillips. horticulture in
structOr at the University of Della
ware, says that mounds are usually
constructed by placing six or eight
inches of straw ON a high spot of
ground. The desired quantity Of
vegetables is piled up and then a six
inch stove pipe or similar tube is
placed on top of the cOne-shaped
pile. The pile of vegetables is then
covered by about six inches of
straw followed by eight inches of
soil over the straw, making sure
that the stove pipe is open to allow
ventilation. Phillips recommends
some kind of a cover for the end of
the stove pipe to keep out the
weather.
