SENATORS START THIS WEEK
Daniels Signs, Two
Stars Still BoIkinq

catcherS except those OF Pitch
ers John Gabler and Hector
Maestri. Gabler's may be in the
mail, because with a 3-8 record
and a 4.86 earned-run average
last year he is not in much
position to hold out. Maestri,
who pitched with three minor
league teams and in six innings
with the Senators. told Doherty
he would bring his contract
with him from Cuba.
Two of Doherty's early con-
Germs in Florida will be Jimmy
Piersall and Dale Long, who
are not due until February %,
but who apparently are not
even close to signing. Doherty
said last week that everybody
else who had not sent in a con-
tract virtually had agreed to
terms.
Doherty was to go shopping
for a rental trailer this week
end, one he could share with
Burt Hawkins, the travelling
secretary.
Last year when I had some
important calls to make from
the ball park I'd have to go
across the street to a drug store
to find a phone, and then my
papers would be in the car, ="
Doherty said. Il need an office
at the ball park where I can
have a little privacy. If we
make a deal I'd like to an
nounce it, not have some drug
clerk who overheard the call
tell about it,"
Daniels has the No. rating
on the pitching staff as prac-
tice begins, but his selection as
the opening game pitcher
might not be automatic be-
cause of his record against De-
trolt last year. He was IA
against the Tigers, his poorest
mark against any team.
/ Bonnie led the Senators in
victories 12), complete games
12), strikeouts (11O, tied for
most innings pitched (212) and
was the only pitcher to post a
winning record.
/ Daniels was the key man in
the first trade made by the
Senators. The Senators selected
Bobby Shantz on December a.
1860, and two days later traded
him to Pittsburgh for Daniels
Harry Bright and R. C. Stevens
Bonnie, who is 20, spent the
winter in Compton, Calf. He
spent four years with the
Pirates, two of them under
Vernon's observation when
Mickey was coach. His best
season in the National League
was TO in 1859, but in 1860
when Pittsburgh won the pen
nant he couldn't buck the big
four of Bob Friend, Harvey
Haddix, Vinegar Bend Mizell
and Vernon Law.

MIAMI, Feb. II (AP).-
Though his putting touch de-
serted him, Alvin Dark main
tanned his seven-stroke lead in
the National Baseball Players

slipped to 37-4O-77, seven over
par, for a 54-hole total of 219

Brandt. Brandt dropped three
brides and powered several

Sullivan, who has made only

American University squeezed
81 points into a 12-minute
stretch in the second half to
overhaul Loyola's Greyhounds,
1910. last night at AU in a
Mason-Dixon Conference bask-
etball game marred by 81 per-
sonal fouls.
Loyola, which stung the
Eagles with its only conference
lose, 66-63, last month, was
called for 80 of the personals
and the home team bounced on
the opportunity by scoring half
its points from the free line.
The Eagles dumped in 40 of
So foul shots, compared to
Loyola's 24-for-36 figure, to
more than make up for their
6-point deficit in field goals.
AU was trailing by it's widest
margin, SLAB, when it began
the spree which resulted in it's
biggest advantage, 74-61, with
3 minutes left. All the regulars
contributed to the surge, led
by Bob Lindquist's 10 points.

DURHAM, N. c., Feb. II (AP)
Dukes seventh-ranked Blue
Devils broke away from Navy
midway in the second half to-
day and defeated the Middies,
9l-72, in a regionally televised
basketball game.
Navy had led much of the
first half and into the second
half before the Blue Devils
! G ain ed the advantage with
1925 left on a jump shot by
BuZzy Harrison. From that
5l-50 point, Duke brought out
its fast break and ran the
margin to 81 points with about
a minute to play.
The Middies led by as much
as six points during a first
half charge led by the accurate
shooting of Ron Terwilliger
and Dave Tremaine.
The hot-shooting Blue Dev-
lis used one torried second half
stretch when they outscored,
Navy Ill to provide the i'm
petus.
Dukes big four of Art Hey
man, Harrison, Jeff Mullins
and Jay Buckley carried the
burden of the second half
charge. Heyman wound up with
26 points, Harrison with Is,
Mullins with II and Buckley
with II.
Tremaine led Navy scoring
with 16 points and played a
fine floor game. TerWilliger
had Is.

Groveton Topples CIV
From First Place, 58-55

Groveton High School last
night knocked George Wash
ington out of a share of the
Northern Virginia Group la
League lead with a $3.50 vic
tory at George Washington.
The Presidents dropped to
fourth place in league play
with a 1912 record. Washing
ton-Lee leads with a 10-1 mark
while Hammond and Groveton
are deadlocked in second place
with 11-2 marks.
Bob Stephens, a 6-foot-5
Junior, tossed in four quick
baskets in the third period as
Groveton broke open a close
game. The Tigers led, 44-37,
after three quarters and held
the advantage the rest of the
way.

unsympathetic in such cases,
and probably wish that condi-
lions had been a little worse.
So I'm only going to keep you
a minute in telling you about

Stadium. I don't know which

X & 4 x
President Pete Quesada of
the Senators took members of
press, radio and television on
a tour of the press facilities the
other morning. 1t wasn't a
very happy occasion.
The press box for the base
ball writer's is stuck somewhere
between the upper and lower
deck between first and third
base. You look out over a slop-
ing roof that hides the view of
the catcher as he comes back
for a foul ball. You also can
lose a Nightly fair ball.
The impression is that you're
watching a baseball game from
a tank. You're not part of it.
It's almost like covering a foot
ball game from a glassed-in
press box.
The baseball writer's and
columnistS stormed and fumed,
grumbled and almost threat
ened to strike. They demanded
to see what the radio and tele-
vision people had on the level
below. So we trooped down to
see how the other half was
going to live.
First, we ducked. Some
midgets-no tall ones-can
enter the radio-TV booths with
out ducking. There are fore
boding looking, and feeling,
steel beams staring you directly
in the eye. You duck the first
one, and wham, there's another.
They're going to be padded, !"
somebody said, attempting to
throw a bit of oil on the waters.
BY padding the beams, it will
mean instead of a large cut
over the eye you'll only have
an egg-sized bump if you forget
to duck.
A fellow like Announcer Dan
Daniels, who is about ga, will
be beaten down to about So
by the All-Star Game.

than a round trip ticket would

Hong Kong, India, the Middle

However, travel representa-

such trips: BY all means avoid
that 42-hour sprint. And, don't
rush. The trip is too far and
too much money is involved
