Harris Scanning
Rocks for Trio
For Box Aid
Anderson Beck and
Zukowski Leading
Candidates Now
BY FRANCIS E. STAN,
Ctar StoFF Torrernopdo,,t

ORLANDO, Fla, Feb. 22.-If tn
Nationals are going to finish higher
than seventh place this year in the
American League race they will have
to come up with three helpful rookie
pitchers or swing a trade, according
to Bucky Harris.
When President Clark Griffith
cleaned house over the winter, SELL

guido, and trading Joe Krakauskas. h,
left his Washington ball club fright
fully shy of pitchers on whom there
was some line. With few exceptions
most of the hurlers now in spring
training are perfect strangers.
Harris admits all this, but he
isn't regretting the departure of any
of that group which pitched the
Mats into seventh place. I'VE had
line on those fellows" he says. 1--WE
found out all we needed to know
they were no help"
Zukowski May Stick.
At the moment Harris plans to
carry nine pitchers into the season
He knows six of them, but can only
guess as to the others.
"One probably will be ZukoWski anC
another will be Anderson" he says
"ZukCWski doesn't look much like
a pitcher, but he won % games at
Greenville last year and any time a
pitcher wins % nowadays he's got
to have something"
Zukowski. first name Alex, is q
Stocky right-hander, % years old
He lost IA games with the Sally
League team, which was by no
means a good ball club.
Arnold Anderson is a big. 2O5-
pound SWede from James, Iowa, who
has been knocking around. the
minors for the last five or six years
His age is given as 26 and he prob
ably owes his status with Harris be-
cause Of a decision he won last year
from the Browns when called I'D for
another trial.
Late in the season, when the
Browns were hot" Harris recalls
Anderson stopped them in St
Louis, s to 2. The next day they
knocked Hudson out and the day
after they beat Chase. so that makes
Anderson look a little good"
Carrasquel to Relieve.
The other rookie who may be re-
tained may be Hardin Cathey. a s.
foot-4-inch southpaw, who was pur-
chased last year. sight unseen. from
Thomasville, where he won 19 and
lost II. Joe Engel, Chattanooga
president and Griff's old scout, rec
commended him and, in fact, nego-
tiated the deal inaSmuch as Thom-
asville is hooked up with 'Nooga
The six who are almost certain
to stick are Dutch Leonard, Sid
Hudson, Walter Masterson. Ken
Chase and Danny MacFayden, who
will be used as starters, and Alejan-
drO Carrasquel. the ageless Vene-
zuelan, who will relieve.
None of the others is conceded
much of a chance of sticking with
the Mats. Most will be lucky if they
are grabbed off by the farm team
operators who are hanging around
waiting for the signal to dip into
the grab bag. Harris likes the &C
ton of youngster named Joe
Beck, who pitched for Orlando last
year. but Beck is only 18 or 10 and
hardly figures to be ready, although
it was out of this same league that
Hudson was graduated last year.

The Scots gave us curling, a
game that has been called shut

teams throw circular stones to a
target ring 80 yards away.
Each player curls two stones
alternately with his opponent,
Holding the stone by a handle,
players release il with an lin"
or ''out" wrist twist which pro-
duces the long curve or curl
from which the sports gets its
name.
The skip {captain) figures out
plays and points with his broom
to where he wants teammate

wait near the target to brush a
path for the oncoming stone.
An end (inning) Is finished
when all eight players have curl
ed two stones each. Usually IL
or II ends make a game, which
lasts around two hours
The course is sprinkled with
warm water. This forms pebbles
or tiny knobs N which the curl
ing stones ride.
Players curl a stone much like

- CHICAGO, Feb. SITS been
some IL years since Paul Barlen-
bach hung up his gloves for good
but boxing still is in the blood
of this one-time light heavy
weight champion.
Now 40, yet apparently still
close to the physical peak which
carried him through scores of
memorable battles in the late
eos, the famous body-puncher
has settled down to a quiet life
on Chicago's Northside. He's had
a lot of jobs since his last fight
in 1880, but he's sticking to only
one now-one close to the career
in which he once reached the
top.
He is on the hunt for a young
heavyweight who'll work hard
and stay in shape.
Berlenbach, who gives boxing
lessons at athletic clubs between
refereeing jobs at both profess
sional and amateur ring shows
here, says:
Still Looking
I've looked over some 200 boys
but haven't found youngster
yet who looks like the goods.
When I do-and if he wants to
stay in shape and make good

SOLT COLORFUL
CAGE REFEREE

Captain ]. E. Solt, who of
ficiates at a number of Island
City League and interscholastic
games in the High School Gym,
is a colorful basketball referee.
Whether he realizes it or not,
this active, likeable sportsman is
the center of all eyes at times
not Just because he's the man who
blows the whistle" and penalties
players but because of his spon-
taneous gesticulations.
Solt seems to take a delight in
footing his whistle when he
eagle eyes" a wrongdoer. AL
most simultaneously he turns to-
ward the scorekeeper to signify
the nature of the foul.
His indication that a basket
has been scored is probably his
most colorful signal. Jumping in
to the air and clicking heels to-
gether, he raises his right hand,
fervently waving the "two-point"
fingers. It's said he has been
mistaken for a cheerleader when
he goes through this perform
ance.
Always crouching, he follows
the course of the ball much like
a cat watches a mouse, and, as
suddenly, springs upon a violator
With his flair for color, Solt
can put life" into listless game
We would like to see more of this
gesticulating gentleman.

HAMLIN'S PLAN
FOR RECREATION

Roy Hamlin, baseball-softball
manager and ardent sportsman,
has devised a plan that would
provide recreation for service
men five nights week and Sun
day afternoons at a nominal in
itial cost and an estimated Sl00
per month.
The plan, which has been ex
planned to member of the city's
recreation committee, will prob
ably be studied when the group
meets again to form diversified
program for service men under
threat of transferring the men to
Miami for off-duty pastimes.
Mr.. Hamlin believes that with
similar amount as that invested
in the Colonial Park fiasco, he
could get his ambitious program
under way with minimum delay.
The plan calls for three softball
! leagues, a baseball league and
fistic bouts.
! Softball would be staged Mon
day, Tuesday, Thursday and Fri
day nights at Bayview Park
field, boxing Wednesday nights
at Bayview and baseball Sundays
at Nelson English Park on Thorn
/ as street.
/ The initial outlay of funds, Mr..
Hamlin explains, would be used
to purchase equipment for the
three sports. A large quantity
of balls, bats, catcher and umpire
protective pieces, boxing and ball
gloves will be necessary to keep
the hundreds of players and fight
ers we'll supplied Score books,
score sheets and other essentials
would be secured at the same
time.
The portable bandstand at
Colonial Park would be removed
to the Bayview field and out
fitted as a ring for the boxing
events. 1t would be set up Wed
nesdavs only.
Softbau leagues would be COM
posed of two service units and
one civilian group or one of each
and the third combined. An es-
timated eighteen teams would be
equally divided among the cir
cults. Each ship and service unit
stationed here will be represent
ed along with an undetermined
number of civilian clubs.
All baseball teams would be
combined into enc league. Mr.
Hamlin plans. As more practice
and skill is necessary for nation
