Branch Hickey Comes Up With
Startling Ideas On Baseball
Hutchinson Sees futile
Grabbing Rookie Honors
BY JOE FALLS

AP NeWsfe a.ures
DETROIT-When the Detroit
Tigers first saw outfielder Bill
futile, their enthusiasm was only
lukewarm. Today it is red hot.
Manager Fred Hutchinson Of
the Tigers boldly proclaims:
"Who has q better chance for
rookie honors? futile does every.
thing and does 1t we'll"
Hutchinson is not worried over
Tuttle's diminishing batting av.
erage. After leading the league
for the first few weeks, the 25-
year-old centerfielder slipped be-
low the 800 mark.
His average may be dipping"
says Hutchinson, "but he's hit
ting the ball harder these days.
And he's becoming more aggres.
Sive every game. He's one of the
few players on our team who
steals bases on his own"
The Tigers were not always
this high on the Elmwood, ILL.,,
Speedster. In fact, he was almost
by-passed in his first workouts.
At the time, Detroit was after
a young shortstop named Ted
KazanSki. All eyes followed Kaz-
anski in the workouts but when
signing time came, he slipped
through the Tigers fingers.
In a midnight meeting, Bob
Carpenter, president of the Phila-
delphia Phillies, signed Kazanslki
for $100,000-a five-year agree
ment at $4,000 per year.
The Tigers were miffed. They
had been assured they would have
last crack at the promising short
stop. But they were foiled at
midnight.
So they looked over the other
tryout candidates and signed futile
for $4,000.
From the start, futile was tab.

His batting average began to
decline but his fielding remained

lone drawback is that he doesn't
