William Wells, secretary of
the Milford Building and Loan
Association, and Robert Fis-
cher, manager of Milford's Fer
tilizer Plant, had narrowing
experience last Saturday in the
Delaware Bay when their small
boat was imperiled by large
shark. After catching some fish
they had placed their catch in
a grass bag and hung 1t in the
water over the side of the boat.
This apparently attracted the
shark which headed at high
speed for their boat. Mr.. Wells
finally managed to bring the
bag into the boat and head for
shore. They estimated the
shark was about seven feet
long.

a teammate for critical error. Quiet,
but quick to smile off the field, he's
strictly business when he goes to work
PaScual has been tabled from the
outset as pitcher of great potential
but progress was painful Not until last
season, and then not until midJune,
did Pascual bloom to brlliance after
budding for so long
When Pascual got rolling, starting
June II, he won l3 games and lost only
three. He pitched at an 8l3 clip from
June II until the end of the season for
a team which was playing at 400 pace
over the same span He finished with
a ITO record, which hints of greater
things to come.
There's one possible barrier to Pas
cual sustaining his proficiency. That's
an arm which is inclined toward tender
ness, perhaps from the year-around
punishment it absOrbS. PaScual'S arm
could lose its elasticity before its nor
NAL expiration date due to overwOrk
Barring injury, though, he's calculated
to be one of games most precious pos

Another retarding element could
be that Camilo doesn't have an adequate

him, but he has shown he can over
come such glaring deficiencies with his
skill. He was big winner last season

LIS major league record for six sea-

of the Senators is baseballS most valu-
able pitching property.
Bill urges, the former Washington
coach who now is manager of the Boston
Red SOx, declares: "PaScual is the best
pitcher in baseball. There's no telling
how great he would be if he d rest during
the winter, instead of pitching in Cuba.
Still. if | had him, | wouldn't trade him
for any pitcher in the game"
Few, if any, knOwledgeable base
ball men would be willing to dispute
Jurges' appraisal of the talented Cuban
highlander. If all pitchers were tossed
on the open market, it's highly probable
that the pleasant Pascual would com
mand the prime price.
Some of the ingredients Of Pascuars
value are readily diScernible. He is 26
young enough to have his future ahead
of him, but experienced enough to have
the compoSure of a confident veteran.
His attitude is one of deadly serious
ness-a quality not always present
among athletes of ability
Pascual has harneSsed his temper

which blocked his path to the top, but
retaining an admirable meanneSs on
