 Folks danced in the streets and even kissed the lamp posts.
 In the words of an especially conservative Briton-"It's very easy to take"
 Manchester was the first big city whose lights went on again. The blackout will be lifted throughout the British isles next Sunday.

Seals Have the
Reserves, Power

backed by Dino Restelli. fine all
round prospect and Ray Medeghini,
right handed pitcher At second,
Captain Del Young is backed by
Joe Kuniey; holdover Jimmie Adair
at short is backed by Joe Futernick
and Frank Cirimele and at third
Willie Enos is seconded by another
sturdy chested youth, Johnnie
Trutta, plus Ben Guintini.
Restelli and Guintini, fine pros
poets, can play infield or outfield.
NINE SPEEDY THIEVES
Nine players have speed to get
extra bases on miShandled drives
and steal bases in tight ball games.
They are hOldover outfielders Hen1/
Steinbacher, Frenchy Uhalt and
Logan Hooper, along with Guintini,
Restelli, Kuniey, Futernick, Neil
Sheridan and Rag Elliott.
Sheridan, powerfully built as be-
fits a former USF fullback, is the
teams fastest man and is learning
rapidly under ODoul. He is &c
in the draft, medically discharged
by the Marines. Elicit, young
catcher, can play outfield.
CLUTCH HITTERS
The Seals power will stem from
Steinbacher and Uhalt, regular 300
hitters. They will be aided by
Suhr, clutch hitter; Hopper, who
meets the ball well and EnoS, who
can hit the fences. All but Enos
bat left-handed.
The Seals, however, will not be
left-handed out of the league by
clever pitchers such as Carl Fisher
of Seattle and San Diego's Jim
Brillheart, Red Dilbeck and Chet
Johnson. ODoul can counter with
right-handed hitterS Sheridan
Restelli and Guintini in place of
Hooper, Suhr and Uhalt. Sheridan
got eight hits against Portland in
two night training camp games at
San Jose.
PITCHING PAGERS
Boy Joyce, Ray Harrell. Sam
Gibson and Tom Seats will pace the
pitching staff. Help will come
from Okey Flowers, Phoenix, Ariz
CurVer; Rudy Parsons, reliefer Pard
Ballou, Medeghini, and left-handers
Joe Piercey and Bill Werle.
Catchers Joe Sprinz and Bruce
OgrodoWski will match any ether
pair in the league in effectiveness
with young Elliott in reserve.
The Seals will be well dressed
minus gaudy stripes. All white
home uniforms, solid navy blue
socks and caps with Seals in block
blue letters over the left chest
complete the ensemble.
