Sanford Getting Big Assist
From HaIIer's Heady Work

Carl Wiley. Tommy Davis hit
a two-run homer in the first
inning burst.
Ken Aspromonte hit a pinch
single to drive in the tying run
for the Cubs in the ninth, and
then singled across the decid-
ing run in the 11th. Before
Aspromonte's tying hit, the
Cardinals had pulled out front
in the eighth on consecutive
homers by Bill White and Stan
Musial, the sixth for each. Don
Elston was the winner, Dio-
medes Olivo the loser.
Nottebart shut out the Pirates
on five hits for eight innings,
and held a 80 lead, built
mostly on a four-hit perform
ance by AL Spanger. Bill Ma
zeroski started things for the
Pirates in the ninth with a
double, Willie Stargell walked
and Smoky Burgess singled one
run across. Dom Clendenon
singled another across, and
after Don Mcmahon relieved
Nottebart, Roberto Clemente
stroked a clinching two-run
single.

Jack Sanford freely admits
he owes much of his pitching
success to Tom Haller, the other
half of San Francisco's think

Sanford took care of the
pitching, and Haller took care

that means "Haller and me. You
don't think I could do it all by
myself, do you? Tom may call
some pitches you wonder about,
but they work."
The triumph against the
Phillies kept the Giants one
game ahead of the runnerup
Dodgers, who won their eighth
straight by beating the Nets,
7-3, behind Don Drysdale's two
hit pitching.
The third-p1ace Cubs edged
the fourth-place Cards, 7-6, in

downed the Colts and Don Not

due to cold weather.

Redskins Add
Three-Way
Kicking Ace

Jim Turner, Utah State
quarterback who was signed by
the Redskins yesterday, wasn't
simply handed a pen and asked
to inscribe his name on q con-
tract. He earlier had to pass q
graduation" test given by Prof
Bucko Kilroy of the Redskins
scouting staff.
Turner is a triple-threat
kicker-punts, field goals and
kickoffs-and for a final exam
Prof. Kilroy asked him to try
nine field goals from the 49,
yard line at the windup OF
Utah States spring practice
Turner sent six hurtling over
the crossbar. Why only nine
kicks instead Of 10, Bucko
wouldn't reveal. But he had a
reason for trying from the 49
instead Of midfield.
1--WE don't want to discourage
our other kickers," Bucko said.
Turner, the Redskins 10th
draft choice, is %, stands 6
feet 2 and weighs 1876 pounds.
He averaged 80 yards on punts
last year, kicked three field
goals and put SO per cent of
his kickoffs on the goal line or
beyond. He made Is Of %
extra points for a career total
of 56 of 66, an all-time Utah
State record.
Turner also completed 80 Of
Sc passes for Ala yards, and
he personally carried the ball
l66 yards. He had a 5.9-yard
average on total offense.
Turner is the fourth rookie
signed, following Tackle Ron
Snidow of Oregon and Chuck
of Ohio University
both tackles-and Linebacker
Harry Butsko Of Maryland into
the tepee.
Only one veteran, Halfback
Leroy Jackson, has been signed
thus far, but Coach Bill Nc
Peak started mailing out con-
tracts only this week and some
won't go out until next week.

Mickey said. Last night we

There was a long silence.
Finally Mickey was asked a
question that might have in

patient man.
I'VE understand from the
front office" somebody said,
that the club lacks hustle.
That's it's dead. That the NOR
ale is bad. How do you feel

Mickey spoke UP without
hesitation. Il think every man
on this club is hustling to the
best of his ability" Vernon
said. Were losing, and we're
looking bad. Did you ever see
the Yankees when they were
losing? They look bad, too. I've
never seen a ball club in a
slump that didn't look dead.
II read that story the other
day about Chuck Hinton sulk-
ing because he is in a slump. It
may look that way. Hinton has
that indifferent mannerism.
and nobody is ever going to
change him. He let a couple Of
fly balls drop around him. He'll
come out of it.
"He's all we have with the
bat" Mickey said. What am I
supposed to do fine him a
couple of hundred dollars and
suspend him for a few days?
Then where would we be?

good as can be expected, "
Mickey added.

If Selkirk wanted a holler
guy for a manager. a dashing,
snarling, swashbuckling type,
he should have given the job
to somebody else last year.
But as George Susce, one of
Vernon's coaches, has said
many times: "If you can't play
for this guy, you can't play for
anybody"
When Mickey signed a one
year contract last September
he said at the time that I'm
not going to change. If they
want a fiery manager who pops
off all the time, they'd better
get somebody else"
Vernon, perhaps to his sor-
row. assumed that when a ball
player signed a major league
contract he knew something
about playing the game. And
that he had enough pride in
himself to observe reasonable
curfews. And that he was smart
enough to remember a couple
of simple signals.
But over the last three years
some Of the Senators knew
little about playing major
league baseball, some of them

watched one player miss two
signs in consecutive times at

Last year when it was
rumored Vernon was going to
be fired because the Senators
were in the cellar, Mickey quite
obviously was concerned. But
not wholly for himself.

that if he lost his job they

friends admitted he stuck too
long with pitchers.
But he profited by expert
ence, and became more adept
at handling pitchers and
changes. Even Selkirk
said yesterday that he couldn't
challenge Mickey's moves.
Vernon had faith in people,
and loyalty. One of the jobs he
hated was informing players
they we're not being retained.
He didn't mind it so much
with the kids, who were being
sent out on option. But to tell
an older player that he was
being released or sent to the
minors, that just wasn't Mick

he was an expansion manager

Case, who appeared as

his feelings philosophically.

The contest is national in

ON any suitable art surface, but
no actual picture should be
larger than Skill inches. All
should be mounted on white or
gray board, with about 2 inches
OF border around the work.
The work will be judged by
professional artists, and prizes
Will be given in three age
categories: 10 to IL, IL to IA

Washington area sailing
interests are keenly aware of
the need for safety measures,
especially since sailing on the
Potomac now virtually spans
the calendar. For instance, in
the Jet Class FroStbite Series
held earlier this month, Race
committee Co-chairmen Paul
Parramore and Ben Minor
adopted a "hard-nosed" rule
that all contestants would be
required to wear lifejackets
against the possibility Of q
dunking in the December
waters, or face disqualification.
Also, during the races a
patrol boat constantly cruised
the area Of the sailing marina
unobtrusively in
the background but ready in
case 1t was needed. Similar
measures doubtlessly will be
taken during the open Frost
bite Regatta scheduled for
February 1928 by the Potomac

The Virginia Salt Water

% popular it has been forced to
raise the weight requirement
for citation Of four species.
Chief among these will be
bluefish. Claude Rogers, tour
nament director, informs US
from his headquarters at Viz
ginia Beach. 1t will take a g.
FOUNDER to earn a citation in
1864.
The decision to increase the
citation minimums was
brought about by the terrific
number Of awards this year, as
compared to the five previous
years the tournament has been
running. There were 3,l40
citation catches registered in
the tournament this year, a
sharp increase over the 2,100
awarded in Iceland that was
the highest of any year to that
time. OF the 3.140 entries in
the 1868 contest more than
half were awarded to bluefish.
OF these. l,076 weighed 8
pounds or more.
Raising Citation Money
The minimum citation
weight for the three other
species raised for 1864 are
black drum, SIS pounds; croak-
er, thard head 3 pounds, and
spot. IA ounces.
The tournament is a func-
ton Of Virginia's Department
Of Conservation and Economic
Development and operates on a
