Sets Record
AT Syracuse

Syracuse, N. Y, April l Vim
ME Cohen, 6-1 senior from Brook
Ign, N. Y, became the first SYRIA
cuse basketball player to score 500
points in leading the Orange to a
berth in the NCAA tourney COM
petition.
In the regular season, he tailed
548 points, an average of 1913
a game. His three-year varsity
total was 1880, and for his four
years, 1888. He scored 80 points
or better in five games this year.
Considered a likely pro prospect,
Cohen might forego the pay-for-
play game to enter law school. He
is an outstanding pre-law student
at Syracuse.

campy Vows
To Have Good
Year For Buns

Orlando, Fla.-Roy Campanella
looked at his right hand today and
vowed he would make those who
said he was through "eat their
words"
"Why man, I've never felt bet
ter and my hand isn't giving me
any trouble at ALL" the stocky
Brooklyn catcher said. eff / don't
get hurt, Pm sure I'll have a good
year"
That right hand bothered him all
of last season. He couldn't grip a
bat properly and wound up hitting
only .219. But he knocked in rs
runs and hit 20 homers.
He knew last June that the hand
would have to be operated on to
remove four bone chips from the
thumb. But when the doctors told
him the operation would sideline
him for the season, he decided to
keep on playing. He had the chips
removed last November after the
Dodgers returned from their Fal
East tour.

The testimony of Gus Coats be-
fore the subcommittee came under
fire when he testified that he had
been forced to run-off and leave
$4,000 yearly business in his
home in Belzoni, Mississippi.
The testimony of Beatrice
Young before the subcommittee,
on police brutality in Jackson, Mis-
sissippi, came under fire subse-
quently, A Grand Jury in Kinds
County, following an investigation,
said that there were no grounds
for her charge of police brutality.
The testimony of Gus Coats in
regard to his business was later
proven false by an examination of
his income tax returns over a per-
iod of years leading up to the time
he says he was forced to run-off
and leave his $4,000 yearly bust

wounded by unknown parties, al

Cubs Hopes On
Ernie Banks

Mesa, Ariz. - The Chicago
Cubs, who visited Los Angeles
recently, were a dismal last place
in the 1856 pennant race. This is
the time of year for optimism and
the Cubs front office and field
leadership, which underwent a COM
plete shakeup last fall, are opti-
mistic.
There can be no discussion of
the teams hopes without it pivot
ing about Ernie Banks. Banks suf-
fered an arm and hand injury last
season and tailed off during the
final third of the campaign.
Before he was hurt, Ernie had
batted .307 in LOG games, hit Is
home runs and drove in SO tallies.
After the injury, he batted only
.267, belted only three homers and
drove in Is RIBS.
The slender shortstop's 1856 rec
ord of .297 at the plate was high
er than his .299 mark of the pre-
vious season. But there was a big
difference otherwise. In his second
full season in the majors, Banks
clouted "a homers, record for
shortstops. He also hit five home
runs with the bases loaded. No
one had ever done that before in
the entire history of baseball. He
drove in 1T runs.
With Banks operating on all
cylinders, the Cubs chances, OF
course, will improve. But Manager
Bob Scheffing also is counting on
his keystone mate, Gene Baker
for a fine season.
