In exercising since the fracture healed Jolley has been pitching for batting practice, sometimes to the distress of the batsmen. Yesterday he asked Manager Donie Bush if he couldn't do a little pitching. Bush, after watching the Yankees slam Caraway and Wehde for 17 hits, told Jolley the possibility wasn't so remole, and to kecp on preparing himself for hurling duty. Jolley started in base ball as a pitcher, and went to the San Fran- cisco Seals as a chucker. His batting ebility, however, caused him to be moved to thé outfield, and he went to the Sox in that capacity.
