WALTER JOHNSONS HOPES DIM
Another Strong Bid

BY CARL SELL
Star Stan Writer

Coach Paul Miller of Walter
johnson High School has a rec
ord of never having losing
season, but it may be in jeop-
ardy this year unless he can
find a completely new backfield.
Miller has a 47-6-2 coaching
record for six years and the
closest he has come to a losing
season was last years 5-4 rec
ord at Walter johnson. Before
that, the Spartans had won
Is games without defeat, and
added three more to that total
before losing to High Point
1912, last october 10.
Miller's record at Walter
johnson now stands at 1912

GREEN, BECQUER TO PLAY MORE
KiIIebrew's First TRY
In Left Tells NOTHING

Among the encouraging
items in a rather dark situation,
Cookie can point to Green. In
his last seven games Lennie
has been a 1888 hitter, but it's
on the basepaths that he is
creating comment.
Lavagetto has been cutting
Lennie loose on base recently,
and the result has been four
stolen bases in the last five
games he has started. On a
club which has some members
who seem to be running in wet
concrete, Lennie thus has at
tracted attention.
PaScual Lame Again
To offset that bit of bright
ness is the fact that Pitcher
Camilo Pascual again is nurs-
ing a tender elbow. He started
yesterday for the first time since
he pulled up lame August /,

Francona Sets Up Indians

Until this year Frank Lane

Pitcher Billy Pierce and Second
Baseman Nellie Fox for the

Last March 81, Lane traded

DETROIT, Aug. 24.-So far
the transformation Of the Sen
ators' Harmon Killebrew from
a third baseman into a left
fielder is an inconclusive adj
venture. All that Manager
Cookie Lavagetto knows about
Harmon in leftf1eld is that he
casts the same sort of shadow
as when playing third base,
provided the sun is shining.
Killebrew performed in left
yesterday as the Senator's won
the first game of a double
header in Kansas City, 7-3. He
was back at third when the
Senators stumbled in the
Inightcap, So, before 1926
fans. Harmon's outfield con-
tributions consisted of handling
a routine fly in meticulous
manner and chasing down a
double with no delay Other
wise he was a spectator afield
He was returned to third
base in the second game to
permit more lefthanded hitting
to be wedged into the batting
order. He'll be back in leftf1eld
from time TO time, with the
distinct possibility that he'll
be playing there on a regular
basis next year.
Green to Get Good Look
Lavagetto probably will ust
the remaining games of thu

ing Roy Sievers and Julio Bee,

While Killebrew had no op
portunity to sparkle or f1zzlC
in his initial major league ties
as an outfielder, Lavagetto re
ceived a quick dividend on hi

stalled at third base in the frs
game, Clipped in with two o
the Senators 10 hits.
This was a pleasing develop

Fast Recovery Found
After1956 Steel Strike

stuck fast to a position that
any new pay boost or other la
Dor cost increases would be in
f1ationary.
Presidents Action
In this, the industry had
support in President Eisenhow-
er'S repeated entreaties to steel
makers and steel labor for
wage-price moderation. The
President said there should be
no new steel contracts that
would result in price increases.
That bOlstered the industry's
own anti-infation stand. Steel
firms said the Steelworkers
Union must at last learn that
collective bargaining is a two
way street. They said they were
tired of doing all the bargain
ing. with the union doing all
the collecting.
The union maintained that
industry'S soaring profits could
pay for substantial pay and
other gains without requiring
another steel price boost.
The industry said if there
were to be no new price boosts,
as President Eisenhower asked,
there could be no labor cost in
creases. either.
The industry did suggest it
might be able to give the union
some modest gains if manage
ment prerogativeS were in
creased under the labor con-
tracts to allow more cost
cutting.
Industry Stand
The companies said that If
the union gave some ground on
this score, a two-year contract
providing some pension-insur-
ance gains for workers in the
first year and a small pay boost
in the second year might be
negotiated.
The union, denying there is
loaf1ng or featherbedding, re-
fused to yield on that score.
The best union offer was for a
15-cent per hour boost for each
year in a one. two or three
year contract.
This is the same rate of in
crease as provided annually
under the expiring three-year
contracts. The industry rejected
these terms as too steep.
There are two direct causes
Of the strike:
l. The industry's willingness
to take a wslkout to back up its
inSistence that steel should
point the way to stopping in
f1ation-
?. The unions equal insist
ence that. like labor groups in
other industries this year, it
should get another round of
wage and benefit improvements
| for steelworkers.
But the supply situation
with such heavy steel consum-
ers as the auto industry well
stocked up on metal-made it
easier to have a strike.
