Pitcher Cooper
Goes "AW0L"

BOSTON, May II. CUP)-Anothe1
round in the salary battle between
Pitcher Morton Cooper and the St
Louis Cardinal management was
in the offing Thursday following
Cooper's suspension by Manager
Billy Southworth.
Southworth suspended Cooper
Wednesday after the big right
handler left the Cardinals without
notice, presumably to go to st. Louis
for another salary conference with
Club President Sam Breadon.
Breadon, however, was in Roch-
ester, N. Y. transacting business
with the teams farm club there
Advised of Cooper's suspension, he
said, THE matter is entirely in
Southworth's hands"
THE last I saw of Cooper was
III the hotel Tuesday night" South
worth said. Frankly, I don't know
what is wrong. You'd think, though
the way we are situated for pitch
ers that he would have said some
thing to me about going-given me
little warning. We're really in
bad shape for pitchers now with
Max Lanier going home to North
Carolina for induction and with
Ted Wilks and George Dockins
having arm trouble"

their series.
Sacramento took a 12-1 win over
Oakland after two straight defeats,
while San Diego made it two out
of three against Hollywood by
pounding four Twink pitchers for
a 1872 decision.
Jo-Jo White, veteran outfielder.
paced Sacramento's triumph with
six hits, including two doubles, in
as many trips to the plate. The
Solons hoped on Jack Lott for five
runs in the opening inning. Lotz
was battered for 10 runs and 1S
hits before Manager Dolph Camilli
lifted him in the fifth. Norm De-
weese homered for the only Oakland
tally.
Lou Vezelich was the big gun in
San Diegos 2l-hit offensive against
Hollywood. He drove in four runs
with five hits. The tailend Stars
committed eight errors. Bob Fer
g,.son coasted to his first pitching
win of the year, scattering eight

Gridsters Eve
1q45 onorS

Ninety young aSpirants for grid
lion laurels have turned out for
Spring football practice at the Cen
tral Union high school, Coach John
NJ. Lewis believes he has the mater
ial for a strong team this year.
Practice sessions are being held
both mornings and afternoons for
blocking, kicking and passing and
the athletes are going at it enthus@
iastically. Without exception all of
them played last year, Lewis said.
Players at practice include the
following centers: Moroni, Hatton,
Nichols; guards: Kaford, Rosen-
baum, Daily. Taylor and Shenes;
tackles: Mallory, Loop and McKen-
zie; ends: Burchett, Smith, Staf-
ford and Jones; backs: Patterson,
Henry, McKim, Riddle, Ramirez and
Camacho.
Back again is Jock McQuade, all
valley fullback in 1914.
Practice discloses that Central
Union is well fixed in the line, hay
ing strong number of reserves
returning.
Returning to fill the guard and
tackle positions will be Red Nc
Kenzie, who weighs in the neighbor-
hood of 230; Arthur Valenzuela,
first string guard last year; Earl
Moroni, last years tackle; Earl Tay-
lcr, Larry Kaford, Manuel Macias,
and others coming up from the
junior varsity.
For the end position Dick Smith,
who last year made All-Valley Sec
end string again will be in uniform
Duane Stafford and William NAL
lory will be the strongest competi-
titors for the right end berth. To
back these veterans will be Dean
Burchett and Bob Reed who most
likely viii play varsity ball next
year, John Jenkins, another all
Valley second stringer will be at
center.
With Kit Carson and Emmett
Henry gone there will be consider
able weakness in the backfield. Most
likely to fill in at quarterback will
be Baby Henry, Emmett's younger
brother or Joe Paul McKin, who

N. Y. STOCKS

New York. May 1S. (UPl--Automobile
shares led a moderately active rise on
the stock market Friday on indications
of early return to high production sched-
ules for civilian use in the industry.
Chrysler ran up more than two points
and General Motors gained more than a
point. Hudson was active but it sagged
after an early rise and other low-priced
shares moved narrowly.
Columbia gas issues stood out in vol
ume, notably the common. All the group
made new highs on gains running to more
than a point in the preferreds. American
and foreign prefereds had gains running
10 nearly three points. Common stocks
Of the utility group were active and steady

high since April 10, 1887.
Airline issues rose to new highs on
gains running to two points in Ameri-
can. Rails were steady to firm, steels
strong on gains running to a point, and
numerous special issues made wide gains.
In the latter Real Silk hosiery preferred
scared 13ll points and International Silver
gained nine points, each to new highs.
Amusements were bid up TO around their
best levels of the year.
Mail order issues were bid up in firm
mercantile group which responded to con-
tinued improvement in retail trade. Rail
equipments strengthened. Liquors rose
TO around their highs with Austin Nichols

played for the Junior varsity team
and made all-Valley in that league.
He looms to be a great runner. Gene
Patterson, the boy with the talent
ed toe will be in there kicking as
usual. Gene was one of the best
players on the team last year and
did a lot of good football playing.
McQuade, voted the teams most
valuable player, may be back. And
if he is we will in all probability
have a strong backfield. Dick Ra-
mirez and Ray Wilson will be other
aspirants to the backfield posts.
All in all, with a good deal of
hard work El Centro should have a
championship team this year.
