claring they have reached the best

right to kayo England's Freddie
Mills for the light-heavy crown

Cincinnati champion, who has

Maxim Q Pounds Lighter.
Maxim is expected to tip 181
pounds, two lighter than Ez.
Maxim has a record Of rs VIC
tories. 20 by knockouts.
Maxim contends that what once
was regarded as his delicate right
was changed to a devastating
right when bone chips were re-
moved from his right elbow dur
ing Army service. He always has
been respected for one of the best
lefts in the business.

Batting .406 for Lookouts
By Burton Hawkins

Importation of hard hitting
Shortstop Pete Runnels from
Chattanooga is being considered
by the Mats front Office as it seeks
TO bolster the sagging club which
has lost eight straight games.
Runnels, rated weeks ago by Man
ager Bucky Harris as the most
promising rookie In spring train
ing camp, is fulfilling that esti-
mate by hitting .406 with the
|Lookouts.
Vice President Calvin Grifith
admitted Runnels has created a
lot Of indecision among the Mats
bosses. Frankly. we don't know
what to do with him." Calvin said.
|"We're considering bringing him
|up. but we don't know If it will
hurt his chances to rush him
along at this point.
"AH reports we have on him say
This fielding has improved consid-
Ierably," continued Calvin, "but
Hts q question of whether we'd be
putting too much pressure on him
Iby moving him into the major
leagues at this time. We're still
debating It,"
A 6-foot lefthanded hitter,
lRunnels got Harris attention
quickly In training camp. After
several days of scanning his
rockies, Bucky said, 'Runnels is
the best of the lot. Eventually he
should be WaShington's shortstop
and he ought to be a brilliant one.
I think he'll be a whale of a hit
ter"
Twenty three years old. the
Isharp-faced Marine veteran led
the Sooner State League with a
1878 batting average in 1949. He
moved along to the East Texas
League last year, batting $3.50 and
the Mats shened out $12,500 to
land him.
