my players. Ed Doherty does all that Talk
to him."
Apparently neither party is in par
tlcularly good bargaining position Work.
ing against Long is his age and, hence.
his apparent inability to play full season.
Also, Dale loses value because, like Zipfel
ne is a lefthanded hitter If one or the
other was righthanded the veteran would
be in better bargaining position
AS for the Senators, they realize that
zlpfel has yet to make it in the majors.
Bud is big, strong, fast and only %, but he
has played only so major league games,
Nor will Zipfel have the benefit of an even
start in spring games. He won't report until
some three weeks after the rest of the
regulars.
If Long should be traded, or sold,
Zipfel would be the only qualified first
baseman left. If he failed there wouldn't
even be anybody like Marty Keough to fill
in. The Senators present plans to convert
Outfielder Chuck Hinton into first base
man sound more like desperation move
than confident approach toward solving
the dilemma.
ONLY ONE OTHER CLUB, in the
American League at least, has exhibited
any genuine interest in Dale. The Yankees
still like his pinch-hitting potential. Last
summer when waivers were asked on the
big guy the Yankees offered to buy him.
They were going to bail out the Washing
ton club to the extent of paying $50,OOO for
Long, who cost $4,000 in the expansion
draft
Lee MacPhail, general manager of the
Orioles, blocked this deal by claiming Long
on waivers. 1--WE don't want him. Mac
Phail told Doherty when the latter pro-
tested, "but we're trying to win the pen
nant, too, and we don't want to make it
any easier for New York"
At Fort Lauderdale the other day Roy
Hamey indicated the Yankees still wouldn't
mind having Long as bench insurance.
Hes the only player on the Washington
roster 1 talked about during the winter"
Hamey acknowledged "but we couldn't
make deal.
But if the Senators figure they can't
afford to go as high as Long is demanding,
maybe a trade isn't so remote today. And
maybe Dale already has thought of that
angle. Can't blame him much, either. It's
always nice to anticipate an extra $4,000 or
$4,000 in World Series money.

Smell Turns In
Under 400

AUCKLAND, New Zealand
Feb. % (AP) Peter Smell, who
has bettered a trio of world
records in the past month, ran
a mile on a cinder track to-
night in 3 minutes, 56.8 Sec
onds. His time of 3:544, made
on a grass track on January
27, is the fastest ever recorded
for the distance.
Murray Halberg, another
New Zealander who holds the
2 and 3 mile records, was
second in 4:02.2. William Bail
lie, still another New Zealander,
was caught in the same time.
Smell took the lead at the
start, but soon was passed by
G. F. Philpott, who was clockcd
at the half mile mark in 1853
with Smell only a stride back.
Philpott soon faded and at the
three-quarter mark Smell was
timed in 2:58.
Smell, who finished strongly,
said he pushed himself as hard
as he could. The track was fast,
he said, "but it was pretty hard
and I didn't feel as comfortable
as I did when I broke the rec
ord" The recognized mark is
3:54.5 by Herb Elliott of Aus

One Wage Dispute That Could Be Leqit
BY FRANCIS STANN

POMPANO BEACH, Fla, Feb. 22-It is
beginning to look now, according to Cen
eral Manager Ed Doherty of the Senators,
as if Dale Long won't be playing much first
base for Washington this season. Hes
adamant and so am l." Doherty says, refer
ring to their difficulty in reaching a salary
figure
Normally these holdout threats are
only for the gullible. But the 36-year- old
Long and the Senators are few thousand
dollars apart at the moment, and it is
further suspected that Dale doesn't much
want to play for lower case team, anyhow.
Long undoubtedly would like to enjoy
one more stroke of luck such as befell him
In 1860, when in late August the San Fran
cisco Giants sold him to the Yankees, who
were launching their annual stretch drive.
Dale, the big, off-season carpenter, thor
oughly enjoyed himself.
In 26 games for the Yankees, mainly
as pinch-hitter, he batted 1866 and helped
win couple of big games. He was voted
part share of the world SERIES Altogether,
it was a pleasant interlude.
1T is UNDERSTOOD that the Senators
were paying Long $4,000 last season, Dale
rating behind only Gene Woodling, and
Dick Donovan in the money making de-
partment. Long thinks that he had good
season and deserves raise" Doherty says
Il don't agree that he had a good year. He
not only won't get raise but we will cut
his pretty good" ed. note: 1t is sus-
pected Dale was offered $4,000.
Long helped the Senators last season,
but Doherty doubts if he helped $4,000
worth. He appeared in 1913 games, often as
a pinch-hitter ,batted 249 and II homerS,
only four in Washington
He went as far as he could go, but the
season ended with Rookie Bud Zipfel on
first base Moreover, the Senators expect to
open this year with Zipfel on first, al
though he is not scheduled to be released
by the Marines until late next month.
Doherty, who is in sole charge of dickering
with players, thinks that $4,000 or $27 900
is too much to pay Long by team that
needs overhauling.
THE SENATOR'S GENERAL MAN
AGER, in fact, told of getting a vote of
confidence from Pete Quesada when Long
insisted on talking to the boss man on the
phone. THE General told Dale, You know

Unsigned List
Still Long and
Impressive
By the Associated Press

The list of major leaguers
who have failed to agree to
salary terms include some of
the biggest names in the busi-
ness, and there's no indication
any of. them intend to give in.
Sluggers Roger Maris of the
Yankees, Rocky Colavito and
Norm Cash of the Tigers and
Orlando Cepeda of the Giants
are standing pat in their con-
tract demands.
Meanwhile, two top players
came to terms yesterday with
the Dodgers. Outfielder Frank
Howard signed for $4,000 and
Pitcher Sandy Koufax for about
$25, 1000. Both received boosts
over last years salaries.
MariS is believed to be asking
for $4,000, double last years
salary, and the Yankees are
offering about $4,000. Colavito
wants $4,000, a $4,000 boost,
while Cepeda is demanding
$40, 900.
Kaline in Camp
In all three cases, what the
player wants and what the
team will give are far apart.
Cash also is playing a waiting
game with the Tigers while Al
Kaline, the American Leagues
No. 2 hitter last year, is un-
signed but has reported to the
Tigers Lakeland, Fla, training
camp.
The Giants yesterday linked
utility outfielder Matty Alou
and will open camp tomorrow.
Pitcher Jack Sanford and
Cepeda will be among the miss
ing. The Orioles trimmed their
unsigned list to three with the
signing of Pitcher Billy Hoeft.
Only Catcher Charley Lau,
Second Baseman Marv Breed
ing and Outfielder Whitley Her
zog are on the tardy list.

going to end, but Virginia S
Billy McCann, an old hand at
such things, says it's all in the
mind.
i. s The scoreboard lights at Cole
Field House last night spelled
out the shocker-Virginia, 70;
Maryland, 68.
The shooting statistics -
Maryland 1913 per cent; Vir-
ginia ATS per cent - told the
story in simple black-and d =
white.
Over in the Virginia dressing
room, Mccain was providing
the color, the various shades of
gray.
"We broke on top" McCann
said. I'VE hit our shots early,
they were cold, and suddenly
the kids, you know how it is,
got the feeling they could win.
No matter what you do, there's
a lot in this game that's mental.
If the kids once believe they
can win, that's half the battle. :"
Rivals Football Sumner
Virginia came here with a f.
16 record. The Cavaliers had
lost nine straight. They hadn't
beaten a Maryland team at
College Park since 1948. They
were 12-point underdog - and
they won.
1t was almost as much of a
surprise as that football stun
ner down at Charlottesville
when the Cavaliers upset the
Gator Bowl-bound terps, 28-16.

SOMEBODY remlnded the cav
alters of that one. 1--WE talked
about it," Guard Tony Laquin-
tano said. Coach Mccain also
read the clipping that said we
hadn't won here in basketball
since 1948. We talked about it
again at halftime."
Rub away the emotional as
poets, as Terp Coach Bud Milli-
kan was trying to do late last
night, and it boiled down to
statistics. Maryland shot only
21.6 per cent in the first half
and was down, 1924.
Even though the Terps
launched a late rally and even
though Bruce kelleher pumped
in 80 points, a career high, the
best the Terps could do was
to close to one point, 67-66,
with 1:31 left. Then Bruce En-
gel, who only minutes earlier
had hobbled off the court with
a twisted ankle, provided the
climaXer, follow shot from
underneath and a free throw.
Laquintano Scores
But the cuiprits were Vir-
ginia's pesky zone defense and
Laquintano, a wiry senior from
Philadelphia who never has en-
joyed the raves a player with
a winner gets. Maryland tried
three different men on him,
but he still finished with 20
points.
1--WE just can't get the pieces
together" Millikan groaned.

get a bunch from somebody

CATHOLIC TITLE GAME
Gonzaga Passing Attack
: At Peak for St. Johns
BY STEVE HERSHEY
Star Staff Writer

Eagles normally travel by
air and that's just the route
the Gonzaga Eagles expect to
take Saturday night in their
final drive for the city cham
pionship game.
The Eagles have flown near
the top of scholastic football
ranking this season on the
passing of John Himmelberg
and the receiving OF. primarily,
Halfback Dave zurowski. The
teams 35th annual clash with
St.. Johns at George Washing
ton High School stadium is no
place to be grounded. according
to Coach Mike Warner.
A capacity crowd Of 14.900 is
expected to be on hand for the
deciding of the Catholic League
championship. Both teams are
uylbeaten in league play and the
winner viii meet Eastern, the
Interhigh League champion,
Thanksgiving morning at D. c.
Stadium. Eastern thumped st.
Johns, 34-14, last year.
Both In Good Shape
Coach Joe Gallagher of st.
Johns and Warner both report
their teams are in excellent
physical condition and unless
there is a complete reversal at
the last moment. it will be st.
Johns ground game against
Gonzaga's passing attack.
"They outweigh us almost 10I
pounds q man on the line and
have more good backs than we
do" Warner says. But we've
got a strong first unit and our
passing will keep us in the
game"
Mostly on the strong left
arm Of Himmelberg and the
breakaway running Of Half
backs Jimmy Scullen and Zu-
rowski, Gonzaga has rolled up
202 points while winning eight
of nine games, losing only to
top-ranked Episcopal, 1877,
early in the season.
II don't think there's a high |
school player in the area that
can defend against Zurowski |
on a pass" Warner claims. "II
feel we can score from any
place on the field when he and
Himmelberg are in the lineup"
Himmelberg is a 6-foot-1,
