Only 7 Tiger
Posts Open
Third, Left Field
Have 3 Candidates
By LEO MACDoNELL

EVANSVILLE, March 24-With
the exception of two positions
third base and left field - the
Tiger lineup, even at this early
date, seems set for the opening
game of the season against the
Browns in st. Louis April II.
But in these two instances the
battle is wide open. There are
three candidates for the third
base post left by Pinky Higgins
into service-Joe
Hoover. who last year was the
regular shortstop. Bob Maier and
Don Ross.
Skeeter Webb is expected to be
the regular shortstop.
Besides Maier, candidates for
the left field job, which was
vacated when Dick Wakefield re-
turned 10 the navy, are Johnny
McHale and Hub Walker.
TOP BACKSTOPS
Young McHale-he's 23-is basi-
cally a first baseman, but since
he will not be needed there with
Rudy York presumably still avail
able. he is being tried out in the
outfield. A big boy. McHale with
his power is expected to develop
into a hitter of better than aver
age ability.
Maier came from Buffalo, where
he played third base all of last
season. He has also played in the
outfield. He hit .298 for the
Bisons in 1914. The veteran Ross
is an all around handyman who
can play either in the infield or
outfield. He was used chiefly as a
pinch hitter last year.
With Paul Richards and Bob
Swift, Detroit has, on paper, the
best catching duo in the American
League.
With Harold Newhouser and
Paul Dizzy Trout as aces, the
Tiger pitching staff looms as the
strongest in the league. Steve
O'Neill also will have as probable
starters Frank tStubby) Over.
mire. Rufus Gentry, Al Benton
and Les Mueller. Benton anc
Mueller were discharged from the
navy and army, respectively. botf
for migraine headaches.
The Tigers also will have Walter
Wilson and Bob Gillespie@Wilsor
won Is games at Buffalo last
season.
York will be at first base with
Eddie Mayo holding forth at sec
ond. The veteran Doc Cramei
again will do tricks in center fielc
with Jimmy Outlaw playing il
right.

Detroit flier, and yours truly. who
were initiated into the sport of
ocean fishing of West Palm
Beach.
From now or deep sea fishing"
is no longer a foreign phrase 10
us. It's a sport that requires the
skill of a trout angler, the pa
tience of a bass fisherman, the
stamina of a muskie troller and
the endurance of 20-round
fighter all in one man.
FELT SILLY
When we headed into the toss
ing Atlantic, this writer felt a
little silly. sitting in one of those
soft-cuShioned swivel chairs, 400
feet of strong copper wire dan
Cling behind the boat and holding
a fish pole that more resembled
a fence post than a rod and a
reel.
I'm glad Ray Raths, Leo
Schaffer, Pat Malley and some
of our other Michigan fishing
pals are not around to Kid u.s."
l told Hartung, as we headed
out through Lake Worth.
There are approximately
500 different kinds OF fish TO
be taken from these waters"
Jim Jorgensen, captain of the
boat, said.
JorgenSen. who talks with a
Scandinavian accent, knows where
the big ones lurk and il was to
this spot he pointed the nose of
his 10-passenger fishing rig.
sToUTEsT FIGHTER
The sailfish is the greatest
game fish of them all. He has no
food value. but under his 6-foot
silver belly he carries the stout
est fighting heart of anything that
swimS.
He's streamlined like a racing
plane. On his back is a monster
sail. set as proudly as those of
Murray Knapp's Bitten. In front
of him, to cut the water, he car
ries a bone 7word. He comes up
to your bait, skipping on the
water with the speed of an arrow
and whacks il once with his
sword for the kill.
A few moments later he snaps
at the bait with his bony mouth
and then takes off for mid-Atlan-
tic at so miles an hour.
Now then, Mr.. Michigan angler,
what would you have done if any
Detroit evening times., 1945-03-25

thing like that happened to you
all at once? And when we say
at once, we mean just that. You
have no warning.
You probably become just as
excited as Hartung was. when one
of these monsters took a shine"
to his bait. You'd clench the big
pole and be glad it's as big as
fence post. You'd be glad the reel
is a big one.
BECOME FRANTIC
Frantically, you'd start reeling.
The beads of perspiration would
roll of your sun tanned face.
Your eyes would take on a glare
effect. You'd become tense -
scared.
This technique Is all wrong.
Jorgensen told US afterwards. AS
soon as a sailfish hits, don't get
excited. Be calm. Count slowly
up to 10 as he runs.
Then brace your feet in the
swivel chair. set the drag and if
the sail fish has followed the rules,
he will have picked up the bait
and the hook will set in the bony
structure of his mouth. Then the
work of reeling him in begins.
Pull your rod up and as you
reach the top. reel in the slack
You keep doing this until you
have succeeded. After that you
will be lucky if you can raise your
arm for a week. And if you don't
believe il, you should see Har-
tung. He's slipping his rum and
cokes through a straw.
FEELS BETTER
There's an old saying among
anglers that Allah does not de-
duct the time from mans allotted
span that he spends fishing" This
maxim holds true with Ralph
Neely of Chicago, regional man.

ministration, who also was among
our party.
Recuperating from iii health,
Nicely tied into an amberjack, an
other one of those warriors of the
sea. The old boy gave him quite
tussle for Is minutes. Strange,
too, Nicely now feels 100 per cent
better.
Due to war conditions and travel
restrictions, fishing activity hasn't
been as great here as in other
years, when this city sponsored
several silver sailfish derbies.

Although he rates both Byron

still regards Nelson the better
golfer-the greatest in the game.
