The Senators stole a lap on lhe‘ cther major-leagu€ clubs by open- ing their base a month early on Feb- ruary 1. And they've jumped the gun again with a gargantuan tale of a| rookie’s prowess that surely will sur- | pass any that the other clubs mayl spin.

He stands 6 feet 3‘ ang’ fogs 'em righ-handed. ‘, “He's really a great ball player,”| explains Joe Cambria, Washington's linesome scout. “He's so good that it was only the other day that I d(‘-; cided he was a pitcher. You see he can play center field like Speaker | used to do, and when he gets a hold of the ball with his bat he drivch’ it as long as Ruth. “But,” Cambria said, “because !\V is faster than Feller and because he has.a swell curve ball, like Tommy Bridges, I decided he was a pitcher. The rookie’s other booster is John Ganzel, manager of the Orlando entry in the Florida state league and one-time Pittsburgh first base- man “I saw this boy go the other d: sheuted Mr. Ganzel. “He's the fastest pitcher I've ever seen.
