PHLS SETTO | LEAVE CELLAR WITH SWOOSH Bossman Chs;bman Figures His Club’ll Make Last Pickers Look Bad By Gayle Talbot MIAMI BEACH, Fla, Feb. 26.— Tacked on the wall of the Phila- delphia Nationals’ Club house here is a large cartoon of a ball player with a “P” on his shirt coming } linkingly out of an old-fashioned cellar, a bat over his shoulder and a bemused expression on his face. | It was drawn especially for the Phillies by the well-known sports cartooonist, Willard Mullin, and it will be reproduced on the face of sold in the club’s season. It not only instance on re- cord of a bail clib poking fun at ‘ts own infirmities, but it also sums up graphically what Manager Ben Chapman has to sa “We're a-coming up out of that cellar,” declarsd the old Y ontfielder, who wound up his play- ing career last year as a pitcher uf parts. “I hope everybody picks us for last again, just so we can make them look bad. We've got a real infield now and we've got pow- er. If we get pitching and find a good catcher, we'll be up there somewhere. “The way T see it, St. Louis and Brooklyn will fight it out for the flag, and after that anything can happen. With a little luck we can be: right up in the race. We still Yope to get a couple of those St. Louis pitchers, and owner Sam Breadon has promised to let us know the minute he and his man- ager make up their minds who they ill sell. Meantime, we're going to ch the waiver lists mighty close.” 4 Deviating for a moment from the main topie, Ben described with enthusiasm the new uniform his club is going to spring on a start- ied public in April. It will be, it ceems, the most terrific red, white and blue creation ever seen on a pall field, extending to embroidery oit the sleeves.

Ortiz weighed 117'%, Castillo 117%. 1 PENSACOLA, Fla., Feb. 26—Ray,| Mangrum, the. steel-nerved pro! from Los Anegeles, today headed | tor St. Petersourg and the ninth tournament of golf's winter tour $1,500 richer after beating Ben | Hogan of Hersney, Pa, in an 18-[ hole playoff wyesterday for the Pen- | sacola open tiile. { ‘Mangrum shot the front nine in | an even par 38, and came in with | -a four-under 32 for a 68, as Hogan | had a one-under-par 71 on the| 6,100-yard country club course.

LEGIONNAIRES PLAN | GYMNASTIC TRAINING FOR TEEN-AGE BOYS At a rousing meeting of Juneau Post No. 4, American Legion, held last night at the Dugout, the fol- lowing four new members were ini- tiated: Tony B. Campc Gus M George, Peter Schneider and Wen- dell Schneider. With the cooperation of the local schools the Juneau Post plans to sponsor training in gymnastics for teen-agers with special stress plac- ed on boxing, wrestling and tumb- ling, with the idea in view of get- ting inter-city competition later on. The hope was expressed that with the help of all organizations of Ju- neau the USO Club rooms might be taken over by the city of Juneau and run as a temporary Youth Center. The costs would not be great, and the present USO Club rooms would serve adequately until such:time as the proposed Civic Center materializes., They pres- ent the additional advantage of being available now. Use of Quonset huts at the Sub- port as the quickest way to alleviate the housing shortage in Juneau came in for much discussion, with the result that a committee from the Legion is to go over plans of the huts and - figure the cost of | fixing them up and making them into suitable living quarters, - PRE-LENTEN CARD PARTY Parish Hall tonight 8 p.m. by Catholic Dauvchters of America.
