SIugeer's Showing
Offsets Poor Attack
In Practice Come
BY BURTON HAWKINS
Star Stan Correspondent

dreams were punctured in the
Senators first brush with COM
petition yesterday, when they
couldn't beat themselves and
wound up in a III tie. but dill
gent exploration turns up an
item OF two along an encourag-
ing line.
Foremost on the gee-whiz side
of the ledger is the performance
of Jim Lemon. VIGOROUSLY slow
starter who has been banging the
ball convincingly in batting
practice and who continued to
.pulverize pitching under game
conditions in yesterdays trial
run.
Last season Lemons spring
showing nudged him to the verge
of being sent back to the minors.
He was hitting a mere 200 and
had gone hitleSS IA straight
times until he suddenly thrust
himself back into contention
with an eye-popping display in
an exhibition game at Columbia.
S. c.
Timing Takes Time
Like most free-swinging bat
tiers. Lemon in past springs has
required time to start meeting
the ball solidly.
I've been a real slow starter"
Jim said. land while nobody ever
told me was going back to the
minors last spring, it didn't take
much imagination on my part
ITO realize I hadn't given any,
body much reason to keep me
around"
Jim reversed his bosses think
ing after the team left Florida
and hop-scotched home with the
Redlegs. On a blustery day in
Columbia he batted six times,
walking on three occasions, then
slashing a double, a home run
and a triple. He belted across
eight runs.
One game doesn't make a
career. but there's little doubt
that the Columbia episode
against Cincinnati pitching pre-
served Lemons major league
status. 1t kept him hanging
around. and on the third day of
the season he was in the start
ing lineup against the Yankees
after watching two losses from
the bench. He helped the Sena-
tors to victory with a single,
double and homer. He was in the
lineup to stay.
Norris Fastest Pitcher
! Lemons deviation from his
painfully slow start last spring
encourages Manager Chuck Dres-
sen. Only eight hits were ac-
cumuiated by both clubs in the
squad game and Lemon contrib
uted two. Both came against
Hal Norris, highlander from
Central Washington College. and
were the only hits the Dresser
signed youngster yielded.

ployed. was wild and that cost
him the run he gave up to Bill

Norris nicked Whitley Herzog
walked Bob Allison. and the bases
were filled when Shortstop Lyle
Luttrell knocked down Lemons
well-kissed single far to his right.

forced across Herzog.
Lemon dashed a single to CEN

son walked. but Jerry Schoon-

CIV Haunted
By fayorite's
Role Saturday
BY GEORGE HUBER

George washington should be
favored over Richmond, pos
sibly by as much as two touch
downs. Saturday at Richmond,
but games between these two
in recent years show that
nothing is certain.
Their current series dates
from 1851. and although the
Colonials entered every one of
those games as favorites they
won only three. And they beat
Richmond statistically every
time while getting nothing bet
ter than an even break on the
scoreboard.
The pattern was set in 1851
at Alexandria. That was the
final collegiate game for Andy
Davis, the big CIV star of the
last decade or so, and the
teams supporters were cele-
brating Andy Davis Night, with
a plaque and gifts for the popu-
lar tailback.
Spoiled Davis Night
Richmond spoiled everything
by winning, 20-19, although the
Colonials outgained the Spiders
by about three-to-two and
earned 20 first downs to 10.
CIV did win the next year,
29-7; 1853. 35-7. and last year,
1876, while Richmond won in
both 1854 and IS by TO scores.
Neither team is overwhelm-
ing the opposition this season.
Both have Us records. Against
mutual opponents. CIV lost to
The Citadel. 1876, Richmond
by 900; CIV lost to Virginia
Military Institute, 1920, Rich
mond by 1876.
Although those comparative
scores give CIV the edge, the
Spiders have enough to trou-
BILE the Colonials. For one
thing. they have more reserves,
a reversal of last year when the
Colonials had superior man.
