SE:Al.SHAvE BIG HOPES,
 BIB SEASON
By 1uss Sewland

SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 8-Rl- Somebody else, not the San Fran I cisco Seals, will be the Pacific Coast League doormat or next to it, this season.
 That's what FranN Lefty" O'Doul says. He's the manager. O'Dcul, one of the outstanding personalities in baseball, had the unpleasant experience of bossing seventh place club last year.
 Only Los Angeles proved a bigger droop than the Seals. The southern entry finished flat on it's back. These are strange positions for the clubs from the two largest cities in the triple A loop. They're usu- ally fighting for the pennant. O'Doul, surveying his 25 hold overs and B newcomers said:
 This seasons club should have good balance. Experience and en- thusiasm usually form winning combination. We should have it this year.
 We are locking for some help from Pittsburgh, either on option or outright purchase. I'm hoping we can get Eddie Fitzgerald from the Pirates. It would solve our problem behind the plate. We also lacked batting punch last season. It will be better this year"
 Among the mound oldies taken on are Tommy Bridges, the old Detroit star who has been with ] Portland; Xavier Rescigno, from San Diego, and Ralph Buxton, a former Oakland standby whose knuokler took him up to the Yan- kees late last season in relief role.

(By Associated Press)


 The worm turned at a Pacific Coast ice hockey game in Tacoma last night. The lowly puck took bites out of four players and the referee.
 Stitches were taken in referee Charlie Good; Portland Penguin players Hal Tarala, Tom Karakas and Nick Bangay; and in Ronnie Rowe Of the Tacoma Rockets. All were cut by the flying rubber disc. Between bites by the ferocious ruck, the Rockets hung 8 5-2 de- feat on the Penguins.
 The Vancouver Canucks defeated the Victoria Cougars, 7-1, in a listless game at Vancouver. The Los Angeles Mcnarchs gave the Fresno Falcons an 80 she'll acking in the only southern di- vision game.

Rosen Billed AS
Rookie Of The Year

Nobody in their right mind is
trying to pick the American
Leagues Rookie of the Year.
after only a months play but,
by the same token, it's doubtful
if any baseball student has over
locked the potent early bid of
Cleveland's freshman third base
man, Al Rosen.
What the 25 year old Jewish
star has done in the Tribes first
% games borders on the incred
ible, and, if projected over the en-
tire season, would stamp his as the
most brilliant rookie performance
since Ted Williams crashed the
majors back in 1889.
Statistical, Rosen has been far
and away the most productive Of
the Indians and ranks we'll up
among the league leaders in every
department. In homers, his total
of eight was second only to viii
liams and represented a full-cam-
paign pace of better than fifty.
But that's not half the story. He's
doing just as well in the matter
of scoring runs and driving them
in, having totaled an even twenty
in each department in exactly
one-seventh of the season. Simple
arithmetic would run each of those
aggr egates to 140 by October 1st.
Oddly enough, the only people
surprised at Rosen's amazing
showing would be found in Cleve-
land where he failed to impress
in three previous and brief trials
with the Indians. Wherever else

he's gone he's been nothing short
of sensation!
Beginning with the 1916 cam
paign Rosen set out on a hitting
spree which earned him so many
batting titles, All-Star rankings
and Most Valuable Tiayer titles
over a four year span that he had
scouts from virtually every major
league club frantically urging
their employers to pry him loose
from Cleveland. Not once in all
that time did his average sink
lower than .319 and only when he
put in but half season with San
Diego did his runs scored and
runs batted in fall below the lofty
100 mark.
