INJURIES KEEP
 MAJOR LEAGUE
 LINEUpS UNSET
BY ycE REIcHLER

NEW YORK, April 4-An un- precedented harvest of mishaps has left major league basball managers virtually in the dark on their pro- bable lineups for opening day 1l days hence, an Associated Press survey showed today.
 Only on a few occasions have the managers been able to put sem blance of regular lineup in the field in the wake of the most ser ious epidemic of injuries and ail- ments since the inception of spring training in Florida 58 years ago.
 There isn't major league team which hasn't had at least a dozen casualties thus far and some are of a serious nature
 Joe Gordon, star second baseman of the New York Yankees, suffered a spike wound to his left hand sev- eral weeks ago which probably will keep him out of the lineup for an- other month.
 Walter (Hoot) Evers, rookie cen terfielder of the Detroit Tigers, broke his left ankle and a thumb in an exhibition game March IT and is out of the picture for at least two more months.
 Last Tuesday, Mickey Rocco, fancy fielding Cleveland Indians regular first baseman, broke bone in his right foot and will be out for several weeks.
 The latest victim is Mike Sand lock, who was expected to bear the brunt of Brooklyns catching with Mickey Owen off to the Mexican league. The reconverted infielder suffred 6 fracture of the first fling CT of his throwing hand in yester- days clash with the New York Giants.
 The list of injuries of a less ser ious nature runs into the dozens. By far the majority of the com plaints have come from the return ed servicemen, most of which are attributed to pulled muscles, in famed Achilles tendons, strained sides, torn fragments and ordinary charley horses"
 Trainer Jim Tadley of the Phil adelphia Athletics, explaining why injuries this spring have been more numerous than ever before, said:
 with each camp overflowed with ball players. the boys think they have to make good right off the bat and foolishly go all out at the start. They don't realize they have been away so long.
