Pitching Problems

Even this far ahead it is easy
enough to see that the main prob
lem next season will be pitching.
1t was terrible pitching that
wrecked the Red Sox through July
Fourth and left them IL games off
the pace. That's big gap to make
up. The Red Sox made it up at the
flag end of the stretch and then
had nothing left for a killing fin
ish.
Next spring Joe Mccarthy
will be In far better shape than
he was last spring-especially
for pitching. He will have
young McDermott. a likely look
ing kid, ready to go. He will
have Ellis Kinder who was
called to action too late this
last summer. And he will have
In Mel Parnell a probably 25-
game winner. The Red Sox
don't care too much for the
riding they took In many
quarters this last season for
permitting the wounded,
wrecked and crippled Yankees
to beat them out.
They will have to show bit
more fire next year in place Of
riding along on their averages. Av-
erages don't win pennants or
World series.
Casey Stengel may have as
many pitching problems as he had
through the last campaign. In Ras-
chi. Reynolds. Byrne. Lopat. San
ford and possibly Porterfield the
Yankees have good but erratie
starting strength. And in Joe Page
they have the equal of two good
pitchers. Without Joe Page this
Yankee staff would have been nil.
But If Porterfield's arm returns,
and if Byrne can locate something
even approaching control. the staff
will be good. In l947 Joe Page
saved and won the pennant. In
l948 Page was of little help and
the Yankees lost. In l949 Page re-
turned to his former form and the
Yankees won again. If Joe keeps
his weight in check this winter and
reports fairly firm next spring. the
Yankees will have winning staff.
Both Detroit and Philadelphia
have the pitching il other weak
spots can be cured before the 1850
season begins.

Urahuanu hlce comes to a world
series: A big hitter, such as Joe
DiMaggio, and a relief pitcher,
after the fashion of Joe Page.
The Dodgers are a better
team over a 154-game stretch
than they are at the shorter
world series. 1t may be that by
next fall big Don Newcombe
can work two world series
games at top speed or that
some other star will arrive.
The two Dodger pitching prob
lens or mysteries are Ralph
Branca and Rex Barney. Here are
two young pitchers who have
everything except one ingredient.
That happens to be winning mar
gin. Together they won only nine
more games than they lost this
past campaign. and that's not
enough for what should be two big
pitchers.
One main trouble is that neither
is sure of his control. At almost
any given moment either might
start dishing out passes and blow
the game before it can be saved.
There is only one way this weak
ness can be cured, That's by hard
work.

Two New Pea Lines Show Promise
OF AIDING Stale Farmers To Compete

State ColIege-An English pea
variety that VIII enable Missis-
sirpi truck growers to compete
with California producers is be-
ing sought in variety tests at the
truck crops branch experiment
station at Crystal Springs. Two
new lines, Horticulturist Steve l..
Windham reports, are showing
promise.
Several years ago English peas
for fresh market uses were an
important source of income for
a large number Of farmers in the
vegetable-growing are of Missis-
sippi.
During the last 10 years, how
ever, production of English peas
has dropped sharply, and only a
few acres were planted in l949.
One of the main reasons for this
drop is the lack of a variety that
will compete with peas grown
in California and other areas
where climatic conditions are
more favorable.
Tested First Time
Fourteen commercial varieties
and nine lines we're tested in the
1919 varietal trials at the truck
crops station. Four varieties,
Freezoni. Oracle, Victory Freezer
and Delwiche Commando, and
two lines, Cornell 27i99 and M-34
were tested for the first time.
Thomas Laxton and Cody led
production in the early group
with 104 hampers per acre, sig
nificantly higher than World Rec
ord. In the second early class
PHI, Little Marvel, and P-84
were the outstanding entries. PLY
has a pod larger and tends TO be
better filled than Little Marvel.
The only objection TO Pea for
fresh market use is the smallness
in diameter of the pods. Crosses
are being made with larger pod
ded types in an effort to elimin-
ate this objection.
